Chapter 10.
A/N: So so so so sorry it took so long to post. But here it is!
Ginny was relieved to see Hermione rushing down the hallway.
'Sorry, sorry! I'm not that late am I?' Hermione panted.
Ginny arranged her face to look seriously into her eyes. 'You are a whole 25.2 seconds late! That puts us behind schedule!' then she burst out laughing at Hermione's shocked face.
'I'm only joking Herm, its fine. Go up to the dorm and your dress is there.' Ginny said.
'What about my hair?' Hermione asked, fiddling with a strand of her hair that had fallen out the messy bun she did that morning.
The fallen strands framed her face and made her eyes look even prettier.
'I think you should just leave it as it is.' Ginny said studying her face.
Hermione smiled at her friend turned round and ran towards her dorm.
Ginny smiled, she had never seen Hermione so happy.
***Draco's room***
'I can't believe it! I'm marrying Hermione Granger!' Draco said with a smile so big his eyes were reduced to slits.
Harry smiled. He was happy that Hermione had found someone that loved her as much as he loved Ginny. Ron was nowhere to be seen but Harry was glad. Ron wasn't much help. He was constantly in a daze, like he had another love potion! Draco was looking in the mirror trying to do his bow tie up, making a mess of it.
'Here let me do it.' Harry said, laughing.
Draco looked at harry, smirked and said 'you just want an excuse to be near me don't you potter.'
Harry laughed again 'you know you're going to have to be nicer to me. Hermione is my best friend, you're going to have to get used to me being around.'
Now it was Draco's turn to laugh. 'I don't have to like you. I just have to tolerate you.'
'There done. Oh just on time. Let's get you down to the hall.' Draco hung back telling Harry he'd catch up. He wondered around Hogwarts for a while, thinking when he heard voices.
'I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU RONDALD WEASLY! DID YOU EVEN WEAR ONE! ANY PROTECTION AT ALL?!' a girls voice screamed, a voice Draco knew, but couldn't quite put a face to.
'Look sweetie, I'm sorry ok! I didn't think that it would go this way! Believe me I didn't plan for this to happen! But I don't care; as long as I've got you we can do anything. I promise I'll stick by you.' Draco knew who this was, and couldn't help laughing at what he'd done! In all honesty he felt sorry for this girl!
'You promise?' the girl asked in the same tone Hermione used when she was uncertain, or scared.
'I love you. Of course I'm not going to leave you! Not now that you're carrying part of me! I mean this is the child that will be ours. And I'm going to love it and cherish it as much as I love and cherish you. And that's a lot!' Ron said, so softly that Draco had to lean closer to hear him. He couldn't help wondering who that girl was all the way to the grand hall.
****The Great Hall****
As Draco walked in he noticed what an amazing job Ginny had done. He just couldn't believe that the dreary hall could become this wonderful! Dumbledore was waiting up behind the alter that he had conjured up, his best man, harry, was already waiting by the alter having a conversation with Crabbe and Goyle. Draco thought this was strange but he said nothing of it. When he got up there he looked down the aisle, butterflies in his stomach imagining his perfect bride walking down this perfect aisle.
