I'm back! Sorry it's been so long. I've been trying to write that other story out and I have a lot of school work to do. Finals just finished after all! Anyways I hope you like this chapter! Also the wedding will come pretty fast in this story. I've decided that I won't make this four stories after all. Instead it'll just be a trilogy.

"Come on Ginny. I've tried on nearly the entire store already!" Hermione exclaimed in an exasperated voice. She and Ginny were out looking for wedding dresses and as it would seem Ginny was determined to drive Hermione absolutely crazy.

"I just want you to have the perfect dress Hermione!" Ginny replied. She sighed and finally said. "How about you just get a custom made dress?"

Hermione sighed and nodded. The two girls went up to the counter and requested some help. A lady in her mid-thirties came over a smiled at the two.

"So who's the lucky gal who's getting married?" She asked in an American accent. Ginny pointed towards Hermione and almost automatically the lady began measuring her. "So let me guess. You want a custom made dress? Yes, yes I think I know what the perfect thing for you would be. White, floor length, not big and puffy, v-neck, spaghetti straps, form-fitting, diamond studs, long veil. Yes, yes, yes perfect." In a matter of seconds Hermione was dressed in a beautiful gown. At one look in the mirror Hermione knew that this was perfect. She smiled and nodded at the lady. With a flick of her wand Hermione was dressed in her normal cloths, a black t-shirt and light blue jeans, and the dress was neatly folded on the counter. "Yes that'll be 150 galleons. I do hope whoever your fiancé is is pretty damn rich." Hermione just smiled and paid for the dress. Draco had specifically told her not to care about the price and to just buy whatever she wanted.

For the next three hours the two women shopped for accessories, shoes and bride's maids' dresses. By the time the two returned to Malfoy Manor they were exhausted and were carrying almost ten shopping bags. After depositing the bags in Hermione's bedroom Ginny left and Hermione went in search of Draco.

Hermione found him in the library reading by firelight after about ten minutes of searching. Hermione smiled and watched as the fire highlighted his features making him look like an angel, an angel from hell that is. Slowly Hermione approached him. When finally he noticed her Draco sat up so as to make room for her to sit down with him.

"Did you get everything you wanted?" Draco asked quietly. There was after all no reason to speak loudly as the house was nearly silent.

"Yes I did, Draco. How was your day?" Hermione replied just as softly.

"Boring as you weren't around." Draco said turning his charm on. "Are you gonna make it up to me?"

Hermione giggle softly and kissed him softly at first but then more passionately. Draco pushed her down so that she was lying on her back and separated from her. He looked her up and down and when he finally looked back at her face Hermione found lust in his eyes. "You have no idea just how beautiful you are, Hermione. You really don't." Draco said huskily. "What ever did I do to deserve such beauty, such perfection?"

Hermione blushed, but smiled. "I'm not perfect, Draco. You're closer to perfect than I am."

"Ah but my dear at least you're pure at heart and soul. I am tainted."

"You're not tainted, Draco. Your father was a bastard and just raised you wrong, but you're not tainted."

"Ah but I am. I'm the one who was idiotic enough to lose my virginity before marriage. At least you've got that."

Hermione laughed at this statement and looked him straight in the eyes. "Ok so maybe you're slightly tainted but oh well. You were stupid and at least you're considerate to what I want." Hermione then kissed him and made him sit up so that she could as well.

"How about we go to bed? I'm rather tired from reading all day." Draco said calmly.

"Yes I do agree. Ginny had me trying on everything and anything before we finally decided to get a dress specially made. I'm wiped to say the least." And so the couple left to go to their respective bedrooms for a good night's sleep.

ONE MONTH LATER

"Oh Hermione you look beautiful!" Cathy Granger exclaimed with tears in her eyes. It was the day of the wedding and everyone was on edge trying to get ready. The wedding was in ten minutes and everybody needed to start getting situated and ready. Hermione looked at herself in the mirror one more time, admiring the dress. Most of the dress was like the designer had said it would be. It was white, had a loose skirt and had diamond studs that lined the bottom of the dress. The difference was that instead of a V-neck the dress was off shoulder and had a corset like top. The dress was just too beautiful to resist. Hermione looked over at her bride's maids and smiled. Their dresses were light blue and stopped just above the knees wear it diagonals down some with diamond strands hanging down. The dresses had a V-neck, were tight around the chest and had a loose skirt. Hermione sighed and got in place behind all the bride's maids. Slowly the music started and the bride's maids and groom's men (all of which were dressed in black pants, jackets, silk dress shirts and bowties.) walked down the aisle. Then the music changed and Hermione, on the arm of her father, walked slowly down the aisle. The aisle was gorgeous. It had long white satin covering it and white chairs on either side. White rose petals were scattered on the aisle and at the end of the aisle stood a white arch that had red roses with white stems wrapped around it. It was under the arch that Draco stood in his black pants and jacket. His white silk dress shirt and white bowtie was the honorary thing to go with her attire. When they reached the end of the aisle Hermione's father gave her a light kiss on the forehead and then Hermione stood in front of Draco.

As she stood there Hermione didn't hear a word that was said until it was time for Draco to say his vows. The vows were hand written by the two so as to add the sense of specialty. Hermione listened intently as he spoke.

"Hermione over the years I've known you I've had many different feelings towards you. I've hated you, disliked you, had neutral feelings towards you, been jealous of you, liked you and now I love you. Without you I probably never would've learned to love. You've taught me well. You gave me strength. I'll not forget you, of course with these vows I am promising to love and care for you for the rest of my life. I'll never forget you because I plan to be by your side from sickness and health til death do us part. I love you so much which is why these are my vows."

At the end of his vows a soft sigh could be heard from some of the romantics in the crowd. Now it was Hermione's turn to say her vows.

"Well first off I'll say that you're probably the only person who could get away with what you began your vows with. As for my vows, this is what I have to say: after years of mixed feelings I am so glad that I've come to love you. You've helped me deal with secrets that have been kept from me all my life and though these secrets have been shocking you've stuck with me. Draco, you're all I've ever dreamed of and I plan to stick with you through sickness and health no matter what. I want you to be the father of my children and be their role model. I love you my Dragon Warrior."

Many women now had tears in their eyes and even some men had to fight back tears. The priest smiled and announced that they were husband and wife and that Draco could kiss Hermione and he did so, very passionately at that.
