I Do

The flaps were opened up by a set of hands and more dust escaped into the air. Jessica placed the Map down next to the journal on the couch. She went back to the box and saw a few photos. The first one was of the Hogwarts class of '98. Her father was wearing the brightest smile of everyone else in the photo. He was waving, with her aunt and uncle right by his side. This made her smile. He was also handsome when he was young.

The next photo was of the Hogwarts class of '99, her mother's graduation picture. She was also smiling and waving, looking very beautiful. Jessica liked this one as well. She set them both aside and saw a wedding album. She opened it and saw pictures of Harry and Ginny's wedding, in the summer of 2001. The first few pictures were of everyone in the wedding, and a few of guests enjoying the celebration.

A picture in the middle of the album caught Jessica's eye. It was of her parents dancing. But Jessica saw more to it. They were gazing into each other's eye's, smiling and laughing with overwhelming happiness. Jessica could feel the intensity of this picture, in every inch of her body…

Harry and Ginny stood facing each other at the alter, whilst Dumbledore said a bunch of words from a book that were incoherent to Harry and Ginny. Something about 'magically wedded wife,' 'for richer or poorer,' and 'in sickness and in health.' But that meant nothing to them. They were in their own little world, full of love, excitement, and eternal happiness. Finally Dumbledore stopped talking. Harry noticed everyone was waiting for him to speak. He figured this was the 'I do,' part. So, he said, "I do."

Dumbledore proceeded to say some more mumbo jumbo, that Harry and Ginny weren't listening to. They just wanted for nothing more than to be married. Again Dumbledore stopped talking, and Ginny took the hint, and said, "I do."

"By the power invested in me, I now pronounce you, wizard and wife," Dumbledore concluded. "You may now--"

Harry and Ginny started to kiss before Dumbledore got to finish his sentence. He just sighed and smiled, watching the two young lovers share each other's bliss.

The Great Hall was Harry and Ginny's first pick for the reception. That's where their romance started, and they figured, why not celebrate it there? There were about 200 guests, mostly people from the Order and their families, and Hogwarts alumni. Pink and white decorations hung all over the Great Hall, and so did a few Gryffindor banners, which Dumbledore specifically let down for the nostalgic alumni. They brought back so many memories, especially to Harry and Ginny. The house tables were gone and there were smaller tables along the walls for the guests to sit at, which left room for a huge dance floor.

Towards the end of the celebration, the best man and the maid of honor, Ron and Hermione, made a speech together, about their two best friends, and how much they meant to them. And they announced it was the newlywed's time to share a dance.

Harry and Ginny went on the dance floor, and a Weird Sisters song came on and they started to dance. They were soon joined by other couples; Ron and Hermione, Neville and Julia, Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, Lupin and Tonks, Dumbledore and MgGonagall, Dean and Parvati, Seamus and Lavender, Hagrid and Madame Maxime, and Flitwick and Sprout, just to name a few. Colin Creevey stood on the sidelines, taking pictures, as Harry had hired him to be the photographer. He snapped one of Harry and Ginny, and then went on to taking more of the guests.

There was a quaint little inn in Hogsmeade near the Shrieking Shack, called Gilda's, and Harry and Ginny decided to stay there on their wedding night. The next day they would be apparating to the south of France for their honeymoon.

In front of Gilda's, a thestral drawn carriage pulled up to the front door and stopped. Harry and Ginny got out and Harry stroked the thestral's neck, as in a way of thanks. Ginny tired to watch, and then they both went inside. The bellhop showed them to their room. Harry tipped him and he exited the hallway.

Once he was out of sight, Harry opened the door, scooped up Ginny, and carried her inside. He laid her down on the bed and passionately kissed her. He pulled away and went to the door. He muttered a spell, which made the outside of the door read, 'Do Not Disturb,' in red writing, and with that Harry went back inside and locked the door.

Jessica smiled at what she just saw, but was secretly happy about were it ended. She wished she could have a wedding as superb as that.

She put the album down, and looked in the box. There was another album inside, but with her name on it…
