A/N: I'm so sorry I haven't updated in a while but now I am determined to finish this story. So enjoy. 8)
Hermione opened the door to her room and was wowed. It was a large lavish suit with a gorgeous view of the city. Hermione walked in and set her purse down on the kitchen table. Her bags were already in her room so she started to unpack.
"Oh! I have to meet Tristan in his room in 30 minutes." Hermione said looking at her watch.
"I guess I'll unpack later and just grab what I need now."
Hermione took a small suitcase with her into the bathroom and she started to get ready. She took a quick shower and dried her hair with a swift spell. Then she put a frizz-ease spell on her hair so it was in soft waves a little past her shoulders. She quickly applied a modest amount makeup on her face and finished it off with a light pink lip-gloss. She slipped into her dress and put on silver strand earrings.
Hermione's dress was Aegean blue and had a v neck cut in the front and the back. At the end of the v was a brooch that had a flow of silk after it down the center. Her dress ended just after her knees and was a casual cocktail dress.
Hermione knew this party was going to go late because they were going to figure out most of the wedding plans there. This party was for the people in the wedding and the immediate families of the bride and groom, most of the other guests were going to arrive in 2 days.
Hermione slid on her silver ballet flats and put a small silver and blue beret in her hair that she got from Ginny her 17th birthday. She kept it simple because she wanted to be comfortable; she had the whole wedding to be dressy for.
"Let me just make sure I have my room key, ok got it." Hermione said.
Hermione grabbed her small silver clutch and only put in the essentials. Then she left her room and proceeded down the hallway. The hotel was in a square shape and went up 50 floors. The rooms were along the side and if a guest looked over the railing in front of their room they would be able to see the giant fountain in the center of the lobby.
Hermione knocked on Tristan's door and waited.
"Coming!" she heard his voice say. A moment later Tristan opened the door to reveal his dashing self.
"Hey look we match, just your luck getting to arrive at the party with me." Tristan said as he winked at her.
Hermione just laughed.
Tristan was wearing a cerulean blue, un-tucked dress shirt with black slacks and shinny dress shoes. They complemented his light brown hair and hazel eyes very well.
"Well, don't you look brilliant." Hermione stated after giving him a once over.
"I just finished an Armani show and they let me keep all the clothes I wore, which is pretty good since they are clothes that suit me perfectly and they are free!" Tristan said smirking.
"Like you need anything to be free you make so much money!" Hermione exclaimed.
Tristan just shrugged, "Well you make tons as well, but you're still careful with money."
"Yeah, your right, but next time snag me something nice too." Hermione said laughing.
"Well, it is about time we made our grand entrance. Shall we?" said Tristan offering Hermione his arm.
"Of course, but just remember to behave yourself, and don't sleep with so many women. You don't want a disease do you?" Hermione said.
"I'm careful, I just don't go and sleep with any woman, anyway I'm using up my vacation on this wedding so I want to have fun." Tristan said with a grin.
They proceeded into the elevator and went down to the lobby.
"Just remember Winry won't be afraid to beat you up if you ruin her wedding." Hermione said laughing.
"Fine I'll keep my hands to myself." Tristan said looking mock innocent.
"For the first 10 minutes I mean." He continued as he watched a raven-haired woman walk into the party hall they were heading towards.
Hermione just rolled her eyes and slapped his arm.
Tristan looked over at her and put his hand over her head.
"Did you get shorter?" he asked.
"No I'm just wearing flats today, and I'm not short I'm 5' 7" and I think that is tall enough." Hermione retorted.
"To a 6' 2" guy like me you look short." He said smirking.
Hermione just stuck out her tongue at him because they had reached the entrance to the party.
"Oh, dear Hermione how very childish of you." Tristan said trying to act mature.
"Please, you still wear hippogriff pajamas." Hermione snorted.
"I love hippogriffs!" Tristan said acting offended.
They unfortunately had to end their grand conversation because the man at the door was asking for their I.D.
After they got in they scanned the room.
"Do we really look so young that we are still getting carded?" Tristan asked.
"I guess so." Hermione said after taking in the room.
It was a very large room with many people inside but not too overcrowded. The whole room had white and lavender veils covering the walls and the large tables had nice, small center pieces. Towards the back of the room it was more of a lounge with sofas and people just standing by or sitting at the bar. In the front there was a large stage and a dance floor. It was beautiful.
"Hey there's Touri, let's go." Tristan said.
Hermione and Tristan made their way to the front of the room and greeted her.
"Hermione, finally I get to see you, you look fabulous!" Touri said. "Tomorrow all us girls are going to have a slumber party, hehe! I know it sounds very schoolish but it'll be fun."
"I can't wait!" Hermione said. They always had so much fun at their mini parties and did some wild things they would never do in real life. These parties were one of the best ways the girls got rid of their stress.
"Can I come?" Tristan asked innocently.
"Nooo way!" Hermione and Touri said together.
"Oh! Where is Ayden?" Hermione asked.
"He's around here somewhere, he left flirting with some girl who I think is related to Andy." Touri stated.
"He's already started eh? Well I better get too." Tristan said.
"Wait Tris, did you remember to tell Winry to come downstairs 20 minutes earlier because we have more information to give out?" Touri asked.
"Oh, Shit!" Tristan exclaimed.
"God, Tristan now I don't know where she is; only Damien and Andy know." Touri said freaking out.
"Hey, it's ok I'll go find Damien." Hermione said.
"Wait, don't, he'll kill me, then how am I suppose to meet all the lovely ladies?" Tristan pleaded.
"Sorry Tris." Hermione said. Then she left, heading towards the bar.
She spotted a platinum blonde head standing with two other guys, one that was Andy.
'That must be him.' She thought.
When she got there she put her hand on his shoulder to turn him around and called his name.
"Damien, do you know where Winry is?" she asked.
But as the guy turned around she realized it wasn't Damien but in fact it was, Draco Malfoy.
"Oh, s-sorry, I thought you were someone else." Hermione said as she tried to turn around. But she felt a hand take her arm and pull her over.
"Hermione, hey, how are you?" it was Andy.
"Hi! I'm great. Do you know where Winry is, or Damien?" Hermione asked.
"I did know where she was before but then Damien wouldn't let me near her so I don't know now, sorry. But I saw Damien pass by us a couple of minutes ago, I'm just glad he didn't see me. Before he was nicer but now he is scaring me." Andy said.
Hermione laughed "Well he has always been overprotective of Winry and now you're taking her away from him, but he won't do anything bad because I'm sure Winry would kill him if he did."
Andy laughed at this "Oh, Hermione this is my cousin Blaise Zambini and his best friend Draco Malfoy."
This whole time both of them had been listening to the conversation.
"Um…. Nice to see you two again." She said politely.
"Great to see you too Hermione." Said Blaise.
Malfoy just continued to stare at her but did manage to say hey.
Just before things started to get awkward Hermione felt strong arms spin her around.
"Why Hermione don't you look brilliant." Damien said chuckling.
"You look fabulous yourself." Hermione Said laughed too.
"Alfani is the way to go." He retorted.
Damien was wearing a red dress shirt, with a silver tie, black slacks, black dress shoes, and a black sports jacket. With his hair falling into his face he looked dashing.
The smile left Damien's face when he saw Andy. Before he could even start Hermione chided in "Damien leave Andy alone, he is nervous enough about his wedding without you on his back."
"Fine." Damien grumbled.
"Um, Damien this is my cousin and best man Blaise Zambini and his best friend Draco Malfoy." Andy said.
"Nice to meet you." Damien said as he shook both their hands.
Malfoy looked like he was about to ask Hermione something before she remember why she was looking for Damien.
"Hey, do you know where Winry is?" she asked him.
Damien looked down at her." Why are you looking for her?"
"Well she was suppose to be down here a half-hour ago but she didn't come because Tristan Forgo-."
But she was cut off by someone grabbing her arm and pulling her towards them.
"Hey gorgeous, would you dance with me?" Tristan said.
"Tris!" Hermione said with a warning tone in her voice.
He just looked at her pleadingly.
"Well now that you're here you can tell Damien about the problem." Hermione said.
Tristan stuck his tongue out at her.
"Tristan, what did you do now, sleep with the whole wedding party?" Damien asked folding his arms. Tristan didn't answer until he had Hermione firmly in between himself and Damien. He looked him straight in the eye and told him.
"I forgot to tell Winry about getting here early and now she is late to her own party, and we don't know where she is!" he said quickly.
Damien just looked at him "that's it, I thought you killed somebody."
"Nope." Tristan said now relaxed.
"Well come on Hermione, come with me to go get her, if I go by myself we'll be even more late due to death of brother." Damien said.
"Damien you have given a wonderful gift to the ladies of this party by letting me live, I shall now proceed in my besmirching." Tristan said with glee.
"Well you better enjoy it because when Winry gets a hold of you, you're going to get pummeled." Damien retorted.
"Ah, fuck." Tristan exclaimed.
"Tristan!" Hermione yelled.
"I have no time to be sorry about my vulgarity, I have girls to meet. Oh! But be sure if you get lonely to stop by my room." Tristan said winking.
"Oddly my answer hasn't changed." She retorted giving him a hair flip.
'O well I thought the matching clothes may do it." He laughed.
"come on let's go Hermione.' Damien said.
"Ok. Andy find Touri and tell her we are retrieving your bride-to-be." Hermione told him.
As they walked away Hermione looked back and saw Malfoy grinning at her. He had been watching the whole thing.
"Well, she hasn't changed, but that's a good thing." Draco said, more to himself, as he turned around and continued to mingle with the guests.
