Tomorrow it may Change

Chapter 5

Wedding and Wedding night part 1

It was perfect! Exactly what I would have done!

Ok, there were quite a few roses, but they worked. Severus had remembered my favorite flower was the Black Magic Rose, and they were intermixed with white roses in little bouquets around the room. I found the one I was to carry on a small table by the boor and took it up, noticing how perfect it was with my dress. I looked up and saw long carpet of rose petals leading in a trail to the altar where Albus was standing ready to perform our ceremony. The ministry official was seated to my right, and in the middle of them was of course Severus. I had to admit he looked great. His hair was tied in a deep red ribbon with a few strands falling near his face. He was dressed in a black silk dress robe with a deep red tie and red lining his cape and trimming his robes. Oh what a wicked pair we made. He was grinning at me, not smiling like every other groom would be, no grinning at how well he read my mind; well at least he wasn't scowling.

I walked up towards him following the carpet with Minerva leading in front of me.

The night sky was magicked above our heads and a soft piano played from somewhere. As I started walking Violin joined the piano, creating a slightly romantic feeling but also a haunting air. To anyone else the whole thing would have seemed incredibly romantic, but to Severus and I, small signs of our defiance littered the room in all the black and red. No frills here, no, that wouldn't be us.

When I reached the altar I gave him back his grin, and took his hand. We turned towards Albus who smiled down at us.

"In front of me are two of the finest people I know, joining themselves in the highest form today. It pleases me more than I can say to know that I am the one to perform the ceremony that will bring these two such joy (here I had to restrain a snort and I could tell Severus did to). No two people deserve it more. Severus is like a son to me, and Hermione is like a daughter. Without further adieu we will begin a traditional hand fasting and soul binding ceremony."

He waved his wand and a golden thread circled our wrists I could feel a tug inside myself as he chanted Latin words. The golden thread glowed bright and seemed to solidify until it vanished into our skin. Our very souls left our bodies to meet in between us. They melded into one and the mingled pieces split and went back into our bodies.

That's it; we were together totally and completely. If the wedding didn't fool them, the ceremonies performed surely would. They were the deepest joining you could possibly do.

The Ministry official stood up and started to walk out with his report when Albus stopped him.

"Well Severus, you may kiss your Bride."

We both glared at him and then turned to each other. Severus leaned in and I held my breath. He lifted my veil to the rim of my hat, put a finger under my chin, tilted my head up, and pressed his lips to mine. He cupped my cheek and stroked it with his thumb. He nibbled my bottom lip just before he pulled away, leaving me quite stunned.

Wait, had I just kissed Snape? Did I want more? Was this a spell of some sort?

The Ministry official took the opportunity to snap a picture as we were kissing, a picture I was sure would be on the Daily Prophet, front page, tomorrow.

I was still quite stunned from the kiss as Albus had us sign the contract, and Minerva as our witness, and then handed it to the official.

After the man left, Albus conjured some champagne and toasted our union, as did Minerva.

After some small talk it was clearly time for the new Professor and Mrs. Snape to adjourn for the night. The gulp Wedding Night!

We walked down to the Dungeons in relative silence. As we reached the door I saw him grin. He picked me up causing me to yelp. He said the password and carried me over the threshold. I glared at him, but honestly found it quite endearing. He chuckled at my glare, and set me down. He slid off his cape and his shoes. I sat down on the couch lifting up my skirt to remove my shoes. I then removed my hat and veil and then my gloves, leaving me in my dress. I looked over to find Severus in a black button down shirt made of silk and black pants.

Oh Merlin, I was nervous!

He walked over to me, sat down next to me, and looked in the blazing fire. We sat that way for several minutes, letting everything settle in. Then he turned and looked at me, noticing just how nervous I was. He grabbed my hand, causing me to look at him. I started to breathe heavily.

"Is this, I mean to say, well, are you a, have you ever, I mean, well, are you a virgin Hermione?" He asked obviously becoming nervous from me and his inexperience in the position.

I nodded and he breathed out deeply. "Does it hurt as much as they say?" I asked tentatively.

"Well I honestly wouldn't know. I will do everything in my power not to make it hurt as much, but I can't promise anything."

"Can you do me a favor?"

"Depends on what it is I guess"

"Collect my blood, for potions I mean."

"Do you know how rare Virgins Blood is?"

"Yes, that's why I want you to have it, consider it my wedding present." I said with the best smirk I could muster.

"Alright, should we, go to the bedroom? I mean only if you're comfortable that is."

"I think I'm as comfortable as I ever will be."

We stood up and he led me to the bedroom.

Okay, so this is actually about half of a chapter that I wrote. The other part contains a sex scene the rating is going up, but I decided to split it to give the reader the option of not reading the sex scene.

READ THE NEXT CHAPTER AT YOUR DESCRETION!

You have been warned, the rating is going up.
