The Wedding
Harry sat back, why was his scar hurting? It hadn't for a while, so why now? He touched it and frowned,
"You ok Harry?" Said Ginny looking up at him from the pillow, Harry nodded,
"Yeah, just my scar…"
"Is it hurting again?" She said sitting up,
"It's not bad, don't worry," he said shaking his head. She frowned,
"Has it hurt lately?"
"No… just tonight,"
"That's weird…" She looked at the clock to her right, "it's four, gee early," she said resting her head on the pillow again. Harry lay back down next to her, Harry kissed her cheek. Ginny pulled him into a passionate kiss, longing to be with Ginny filled every inch of Harry's body. He wrapped his arms around her, and Ginny began to take of her top, she pulled it off her head and tossed it to the ground. She pushed off her pants,
"Are you sure?" He said, Ginny nodded, kissing him firmly. She pulled off his shirt and he pushed down his pants. She put her hands down his chest, their breathing became staggered; he rose and fell beneath her, faster and faster until Ginny let out a loud groan, he kissed her passionately and she kissed back. Breathing heavily she rested her head on his chest and fell asleep.
Harry awoke, rubbing his eyes, Ginny was wrapped in a dressing gown, picking up her clothes from the floor and shoving it in the corner, before going to the cupboard and getting out some black track pants and a t-shirt.
"Hey," he said, stretching, Ginny turned around,
"Oh hey, didn't want to wake you," she said with a smile, "Fleur is already up, so is Bill, they aren't seeing each other because of the whole 'bad luck,' thing," she said shaking her head, putting her shirt on.
"Hey Ginny, you don't regret last night do you?"
"No, not at all… you aren't are you?" She said now looking worried; Harry smiled and shook his head,
"Good," she said walking over and kissing him, "I love you Harry,"
"I love you too," he said kissing her back. She got up and continued to get dressed,
"Now get up lazy ass, the wedding is at two," she said with a laugh,
"Yeah so we only have like…" he looked at the clock, "seven hours to get ready," he said rolling his eyes, "gee that's no time at all."
"Ok, I'll see you down stairs," she said kissing him again,
"Ok," he said getting up a minute later, he slipped on his pants and a shirt, and opened the door. He heard screaming down the stairs, the voices sounded like Gabby and Ginny, he ran down the stairs, two steps at a time, and entered the kitchen. Ginny was standing in front of Gabby, her wand pointed at her neck.
"Ginny what's going on?" He said looking at her furious face, she looked at him,
"She said, she was going to try and get you again," she said through gritted teeth,
"Ginny, you know I'm not going to,"
"I don't care!" She said, with a swish of her wand. Immediately, 'SLUT,' in big bold letters appeared on her face, just as it had done with 'SNEAK,' on Cho's friends face. Harry had to fight back a laugh; he had to admit she deserved it. Gabby touched her face,
"YOU COW!" She screamed and ran up the stairs. Ginny fell over in hysterics,
"Hermione showed me that one," she said holding her sides, Harry laughed,
"She did deserve it but you could have waited until after the wedding," he said.
"Nah, she's a slut, people need to know," she said still laughing, wiping away a tear.
Harry walked over to the fridge and made himself some toast, he sat down just as Mrs. Weasley came down the stairs,
"Morning, Ginny, Harry," she said walking over and giving them both kisses, "I've been up since four, thinking about the wedding…" she said, "also getting everything ready, I've barely had any sleep… seeming we got home at two," she said with a small smile, "gee you people were moving around a lot last night, you must have been having a nightmare…" she said shaking her head and going to the fridge. Ginny gave a wide grin to Harry, and he grinned sheepishly back.
"So how was last night Mrs. Weasley?" Said Harry, raising his eyebrows,
"Oh… lovely!" She said with a smile,
"What did you do?" Said Ginny, Mrs. Weasley blushed slightly,
"Well… we ahh, talked,"
"And had sexy strippers?" Said Ginny with a laugh, Mrs. Weasley rolled her eyes, but her cheeks went ruby red. Harry put his plate in the sink and walked up the stairs, he knocked on Hermione and Ron's door, and there was rustling from inside the room,
"Just a minute!" Said Hermione, "Ok!" she said a minute later, Harry walked in to a very flustered looking Hermione. Harry frowned for a moment, but decided to ignore it.
"Hermione did you teach Ginny the curse you used for the DA?"
"Er, yeah why?"
"She used it on Gabby," He said with a small grin,
"Why?" Said Ron,
"Why do you think?"
"You didn't!" He said,
"No," Harry lied, "but she threatened to, so Ginny cursed her,"
"Fair enough!" Said Ron,
"Before the wedding?" Said Hermione with a shocked and horrified look on her face, Harry nodded.
"Talking about me?" Said Ginny entering the room,
"Just told them about the curse you put on Gabby," said Harry with a laugh
"So what word did you use?" Said Hermione curious,
"Slut," She said starting to laugh again, Ron smiled.
Harry had gotten dressed in a tux, he thought he looked slightly like an over dressed penguin, but it wasn't bad. He opened the door; Mrs. Weasley was running around like a chook without a head. Fleur was hyperventilating in her room, and Bill was asking everyone if everything was ok, every fifth of a second.
He went down stairs and out to the backyard to see how the wedding looked, bright white flowers hung on each of the fences, an arch was in the centre, white laced through it. Seats stood on each side of the arch and an orchestra stood to the left.
There were relatives of both families, dashes of red hair, and white blonde. All talking to each other, Ginny stood, wearing the same dress he saw her in before, her hair falling in curls around her face, he smiled at her, and she smiled back, walking gracefully over to him.
"You look cute in a tux," she said with a big smile,
"And you look beautiful," he said smiling back, "is it almost time?"
"Yeah, should be…" she said turning around to the orchestra, Bill walked into the garden over to Ginny,
"Hey Gin, Harry," he said nodding, wringing his hands nervously, "is everything ok?"
"Yes, it's all fine, all under control," she said patting him on the back,
"G-good," he said with a small nervous smile. "Harry… you do have the rings don't you?" He said turning to Harry, he had given them to him earlier in the morning.
"Yeah I have them," he said pulling out a box, Bill nodded, the orchestra started playing, and everyone took their seat. Bill faced Ginny,
"How do I look?" He said,
"Like a gentleman who is about to get married," she said with a small smile and a tear in her eye, she hugged Bill tight. "Good luck up there," she said holding him at arm length, Bill smiled and walked off to the end of the isle. Harry smiled,
"Shall we?" He said holding out his harm,
"We shall," She said taking his arm. They walked down the isle, followed by Ron and Hermione, and Gabby at the back, make up cacked on her face but nothing could stop anyone from seeing the word clearly imprinted on it. They came to the end of the isle, Harry and Ron stood on the groom's side while Ginny, Hermione and Gabby stood facing them on the bride's side.
Fleur appeared at the end of the isle, she wore a strapless white dress that fell gracefully to the floor a small trail behind her, and the bodice had thin white embroidery. Her hair was pinned up with white pearls and a soft veil covered her face and fell to her fingertips. She gave a big smile to Bill, and Harry heard Mrs. Weasley began to break down in uncontrollable sobs; Mr. Weasley put her hand in his. Fred and George gave the thumbs up to Bill, who didn't look at them and just looked at Fleur with the biggest smile of his life, as if all his worries went away and he just wanted to be with her.
Fleur slowly began to walk down the isle, her eyes not breaking contact with Bill. Harry looked up at Ginny, who had a small smile planted on her face, she looked at Harry, and he winked back. Fleur got to the end and held Bill's hand, they faced the priest.
The Priest began to say something, but Harry was too busy looking at Ginny, who looked so beautiful, she was just looking at Bill, with happiness in her eyes. After a while she noticed Harry was staring at her again. He merely looked away, Ginny rolled her eyes. Fleur began to resight her vowels she wrote herself,
"Bill, I loved you ze first time I met you. I had never… felt like zis towards anyone I had ever met before, it was… from zat one moment zat I knew that I'd be spending the rest of my life with you." She said a single tear sliding down her face, (Mrs. Weasley began to howl loudly, Mr. Weasley said "Shhh quietly.")
"Fleur, you are the most beautiful person I have ever known, in looks and in personality, I love you more than life in itself. I want to care for you, be with you and love you for the rest of my life." The priest smiled,
"Do you, Fleur Delacour do you take Bill Weasley to be your lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in heath, until death do you part?" Said the priest, its funny, Harry thought, they do it the same in muggle weddings. Fleur smiled,
"I do,"
"And do you, Bill Weasley take Fleur Delacour to be your lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in heath, until death do you part?"
"I do," she said,
"You may kiss the bride," said the priest with a smile, Bill lifted the veil and gave Fleur a passionate kiss. They broke apart and faced everyone who was staring in admiration, and walked down the isle, holding hands and smiling.
Everyone stood after the wedding, holding their champagne glasses and talking politely, Fleur and Bill were walking around; they had not stopped smiling. Harry walked over to Ginny,
"Hey," he said,
"Hey," she said turning around, "nice wedding wasn't it?"
"Yeah,"
"But it would've helped if you actually looked at the wedding instead of me constantly," she said with a smirk.
"Sorry," he said smiling, Ginny laughed. Fleur came around to them,
"Hey Mrs. Weasley," said Ginny, Fleur smiled,
"Hello Ginny, 'Arry," she said giving them hugs in turn, "um… I was wondering if you could do us a favour, Ginny," said Fleur facing her, "Can you perhaps do a speech?"
"…A speech? You are asking me now?" She said frowning,
"Well… yes," She said, Ginny frowned,
"What can I say?"
"Anyzing… improvise,"
"This is a little fast don't you think? Why didn't you ask me like a week ago?"
"Well Gabby was going to do one, but she refuses to go up after her… face thing," Ginny couldn't help but look guilty,
"So we need someone to fill in, so… seeming you are the one who put it on her in ze first place, I figure… you could do it," she said shrugging.
"When do I take this speech?"
"Well… now," she said tapping her glass, everyone fell silent, a look of horror crossed Ginny's face.
"Now?" She mouthed,
"Ginny Weasley would now like to make a speech," announced Fleur, Ginny looked at Harry for help, he was stuck for words, so he shrugged. She frowned worriedly, but stood in front of the family,
"Er… hi everyone," She said her voice steady despite her nervous appearance, "To tell you the truth, I didn't like Fleur very much when I first met her… I thought she was a little annoying… you know," she said smiling slightly, Harry bit his lip, this was like watching a lamb be slaughtered.
"But then I realised… after Bill's accident, she still loved him, still cared for him… and I noticed, you must really love him, and I know for a fact he loves you. An idiot could see love in your eyes when you were walking down the isle. So… all I can say is, Fleur, welcome to the family," she finished with a grin. Fleur had tears in her eyes she wiped them away and clapped along with everyone else. She walked over to Harry,
"How did I do?"
"I'm surprised you thought of such a great speech in such a short amount of time,"
"Thanks Harry."
Hope you people liked this chapter, I know basically nothing about weddings except from the media and books. Thanks to everyone who reviewed, means a lot. Now I'm going to use a bit of blackmail, won't post next chapter until I get 100 reviews, (in total of course not just this chapter, that'd just be mean and stupid,) so HA! Come on its only 14 reviews! Anyway, thanks everyone for everything. The support has been my writing fuel. Anyway I added in your suggestions, Ginny got back at Gabby (but believe me it isn't over,) and I added in a bit more "action."
