The Trouble With Weddings

A Harry Potter Fan Fiction Story

Authors note: Just to clear a few things up, yes Harry did go crazy after the war, Like I had mentioned in a previous note in my story not everyone died that was supposed to and Alistair Moody is alive. Enjoy!

Chapter 18:

Harry Stood in the door way for a moment just staring at us, and we just stood there staring back. I think we were all trying to figure out if it was real. Then Harry smiled and came over to us sitting on the opposite couch.

" It's good to see you guys" He looked over at Malfoy and then instantly stood up. " Why is he here?" he stood there giving Draco an icy stare. Draco just stood there not saying a word.

" It's ok Harry Draco is with me" Harry raised an eyebrow at me and started to back up.

" What?" He was obviously in shock, even if he was completely in his mind it would still be a lot to swallow. Harry noticed my hand in Draco's and he looked to be getting sick.

" How can you just sit there and let that happen?" Harry yelled at Ron. Ron looked over at us and then back to Harry. " You let the Dark lord turn your wife, and now you're his willing slave?" Harry started to pace. That was not what I expected him to say. Ron's face got all red, and I saw Draco turn white, and I got up and walked toward Harry. I put my hand on his shoulder to stop him. He looked at me in the eye.

" Harry stop look at me. Do I look evil to you?" HE stared in my eyes and then shook his head. " A lot has changed since… you went away." I looked back at the two guys on the couch who stared at me intently. "I am not under the Dark Lords spell, and neither is anyone in this room."

" Then what the Bloody Hell is Malfoy doing here?" He pointed at him. I took a deep breath this was hard for me to say. Harry wouldn't understand that I was trying to make Ron jealous, but I couldn't just tell him that now, with Ron sitting right there.

" Harry I'm with Draco" He squinted his wyes and tilted his head back, trying to understand. He backed out of my grasp.

" No! Ron is your…"

" No Harry he's not…" Ron stood up and walked over to us. He stood behind Harry.

" How could you leave Ron, you have such a great love" I looked at the floor. Harry didn't know about How Ron left me, for Lavender, and our wedding never happened. Now he thought that I was the evil villain.

" She didn't leave me… I left her" Ron spoke up and Harry turned around in shock to face his friend. He looked back and forth to each of us. Harry grabbed he head in his hands and then sat down.

" No.. no.. no.." I went to sit next to Harry and then he just pushed me away. " How could you?"

" Harry, how could I what?" He looked up at me.

" You two were supposed to have the happy ending. I still regret leaving Ginny. Now I find out nothing happy any more and your with… him" I bit my lip and then looked over at Draco he sad and empty. Draco stood up instantly not wanting to hear any more about Harry bashing on him, and walked out side. I hated feeling like this.

" Harry, we are happy. Ron is with Lavender again and I an happy with Draco. He has changed, I've seen his soul and he is a good person. He is no longer fighting on the dark side." Ron sat on the other side of Harry.

" Yea Mate, we may not have a happy ending together, and I don't like that git she is with either ,but everything is ok." I smiled at Ron to thank him for what he said. Harry looked at me and smiled then smiled at Ron.

" You don't need to be afraid of what you say, I have figured it out. I've gone mad haven't I?" He took a deep breath.

" How did you…" Ron started to ask.

" I'm supposed to be training to be an Auror ,but instead Moody gives me daily lessons on life and wanting to talk about the war ,and my feelings." He laughed. " Not exactly mine or Moody's style. I must have been pretty bad." Neither of us wanted to say anything. " I mean I'm not cured or anything, but I know now. Moody told me. He said I have always known but some days are better then others." I started to tear up.

" Oh Harry!" I leaned in a gave him a big hug.

" So… What's it like being insane?" Ronald blurted out. Harry rolled his eyes and I reached up and punched him in the arm.

" Shut up Ronald!" Harry watched the two of us bicker back and forth like the good old days. He had a serious look on his face .

" I know why your really here, you haven't visited me in years." I suddenly felt awful he was right. He was one of my best friends and yet I was so afraid to visit him, and I only assume Ron was thinking the same thing. " I heard about Ginny's engagement. I wrote her and told her that I had some thing for her." He looked around the room, and reached into his back pocket, and pulled out a shiny gold envelope.

" I figured that she had sent you to retrieve this."

" Harry, I'm sorry we haven't really been there, and visiting on terms like this." Harry grabbed my hand.

" Hermione it's ok, I figure it is just as hard for everyone as it is for myself." He sighed " And I know I had hurt her the most." He handed me to envelope. " Just promise me you will give this to her?" I slowly reached out and grabbed the envelope and put it in my pocket.

" I promise I will give it to her"

" So man I hear you're a famous Keeper now?" Harry smiled and He and Ron started talking about Quidditch and life. I took that opportunity to get up and get some fresh air.

I walked out of the door and saw Draco sitting on ground just staring out onto the horizon.

" Penny for your thoughts?" Draco turned around to look at me and motioned for me to sit next to him.

" It just got a bit stuffy in there with your boys attacking me." I put my hand on his shoulder.

" I'm sorry. Ron is an ass, and Harry… well you were never his favorite person so he just doesn't understand." I sighed.

" Doesn't understand how your using me to make his best friend jealous, for breaking the heart of his other best friend?"

" Well, yes, but he's still wrong about you" HE raised an eyebrow.

" Oh yea how's that?" We stared into each others eyes and I felt my heart beating faster.

" Well you know, your not a bad person, quite nice to be around at times, and you have a kind heart" I smiled up at him.

" You really believe all of that?"

" Of course I do!" He just nodded and started to smirk.

" Well you forgot charming, and ruggedly handsome" I laughed. I could feel my cheeks blush. He put his hand under my chin. And brought his face up to look at his. " Weasley's an idiot" I could feel this warm breath on my skin.

" We should get back, Ginny's going to wonder what is taking so long." Draco just nodded and We both stood up and made our way back inside. As we walked back in Ron and Harry turned to face us.

" We should really be going" I said and Ron shot me a look a toddler gives his mom when he doesn't want to leave the toy store. Harry got up with Ron to walk us to the door.

" Promise you wont be a stranger, I really do need my friends."

" I will be back" Ron pattered his back.

" I'll be here any time you need Harry I promise this time I wont stay away." I wrapped my arms around my best friend and tried not to cry. I walked out the door followed my Ron, but Harry grabbed Draco's arm before he could leave.

" What the..?" He said looking back over at Harry. " What gives Potter?"

" You better not hurt her, or you will really know what the meaning of insane is" Draco stood there for another minute just staring at Harry, then walked out meeting us to go back to the cottage.
