Here it is! Finally! I realised I'd finished this ages ago, but I hadn't posted it yet. Smart! Anyways, enjoy!

Slowly, the couple made their way back to the Burrow and Hermione caught sight of her family watching the Weasleys play Quidditch. It all looked so normal that she swore she had been dreaming before that. Suddenly, Fred pulled her by the hand towards them and she was forced to follow him. Her mum looked at Hermione with tears of joy in her eyes and hugged her once she was within reach. Hermione couldn't remember the last time her mum had held her like that, as if she was scared her little girl would leave. When she finally let go, Hermione could see tear streaks down the middle-aged woman but there was a proud grin on her face as well.

"Mr, Mrs and Ms Granger, I would like to invite you all for dinner tonight as a way for us to get to know each other better. I will come here to pick everyone up at precisely 19:00." Said Fred way too formally to Hermione's liking, but it was quite funny to hear him talk like that.

She nudged him in the ribs and he winked at her before climbing onto a broom and going flying with the rest of the Weasley Clan. The young witch went to sit by her little sister and they talked about everything and nothing whilst watching the matches unravel. This was such a simple thing to do, but Hermione couldn't help but notice how much she'd missed having her little sister there. She wasn't that little, she was a young lady now and at fifteen years of age, she was very pretty. Finally, the Weasleys stopped playing and everyone went in for some sandwiches and pumpkin juice. Soon, Mrs Weasley was making arrangements for the Grangers to sleep in the house, but Mr Granger politely declined, explaining that they still had their old house and that it was only 10 minutes away so they could just drive there and back. This just made Mr Weasley bombard them with questions about the Muggle way of everything.

Everyone stayed at the Burrow for the afternoon to enjoy each other's company and Hermione couldn't help but grin at the sight of everyone leading such happy, normal lives. The only person who looked stressed was Fred and Hermione could understand why he was so stressed out- he was going to meet his in-laws. Hermione giggled to herself and turned back to Ginny as they looked through bridal magazines together. Ginny's wedding was only 8 days away and excitement could be seen everywhere on Ginny's face as she babbled on about her wedding plans. The two witches were in the company of Amber, Hermione's sister. They all chatted excitedly about Ginny's wedding until Hermione gasped.

"Amber! I've got to get you a bridesmaid dress!" she shouted "And in two years you'll be allocated a husband since you're in Europe now!"

Stress rolled over her as she thought about her little sister getting married to a random fourty year old man and she randomly hugged her sister tightly. However, she was receive by Ginny and Amber exploding into laughter as they held their sides and laughed so hard that they fell off their chairs. Hermione just stared in disbelief. How could they just laugh?

"Hermione, I haven't been here a day and you're already stressing!" said Amber after she finally stopped laughing, "Anyways, we've got two whole weeks before your wedding, so we've got time to go to Diagon Alley and get everything. I'm turning seventeen in a year and a half Hermione, I'll be fine!"

Hermione's shoulders eased and she sighed, defeated. She was right, of course, Amber was almost an adult and she would know what to do. Then an idea popped into her head.

"Since we're all here, why don't we go for bridesmaid dress shopping? I've seen the ones I want, but Ginny, you've got to get yours, and so does everyone else. We'll be back before six."

All of the brides-to-be perked up with a smile on their face. This was going to be fun!

Hermione grabbed onto Amber's hand and apparated her into Diagon Alley without further ado. Before the other witches arrived, Hermione took Amber in her arms and held onto her like her life depended on it.

"I've missed you so much Amber!" Hermione exclaimed through silent sobs "Don't ever go away. Please."

"I promise I won't, Hermione." she whispered and Hermione realised that she too was crying

Hermione pulled back and took her in, determined to remember everything about her if this happened to just be a dream. Her soft locks were longer than the older girl and more tamed as well. However, her eyes were more chocolate and they were definitely deeper as well, the two sisters were the same height, and looked very much alike. Then, the other witches arrived and they pulled apart a smile on both of their faces. Amber had always been Hermione's best friend before she had left for Hogwarts. She understood her sister, and she was the only person who had always been there for her. Hermopne remembered having to place the charm on her like it was yesterday. That was by far the hardest thing she had ever done. The thought of her not remembering anything about our adventures together still brought tears to the witches' eyes.

"Come on, Hermione, let's get going." called Ginny.

"I'll be right there." she answered back as she wiped the last of the tears. She was back, and she remembered, and right now, that was all that mattered.

We entered the shop for what felt like the hundredth time and Hermione immediately saw the dress I wanted my sister and the rest of the bridesmaids to wear. When she took it out of the rack and showed it to Amber, her eyes filled with tears but she didn't cry.

"It's real then, you really are getting married." was all she said before adding "It's beautiful."

"Yeah, it's real."

"Hermione!" Ginny called from the other side of the shop.

"Coming!" Hermione answered back, taking Amber's hand and taking her to Ginny.

"What do you think of this?" asked Ginny, holding up a red dress.

The colour was beautiful, and it seemed really delicate.

"How about we try them on?" Luna suggested

So all of the bridesmaid for Ginny's wedding took off with a dress and tried it on. Once we all left the changing rooms, we all agreed that it wasn't right at all. So we took them off and went to look for some more.

"Ginny! Come see this one!" shouted Katie, earning disapproving looks from some of the other customers

When they all saw the dress Ginny was holding up, they grinned and took one each again. This time, when the women came out of the dressing rooms, they all had big grins on our faces. The dresses were a lovely green with one strap over one shoulder and they reached about knee height. It was tight around their stomach, with a bow at the back. They would look spectacular!

Soon afterwards, Patricia found her bridesmaid dresses, Hermione and Ginny tried it on and they both decided they were perfect, very elegant and simple. Luna already knew what dresses she wanted for her bridesmaids, it was a yellow dress (Luna said they had to be yellow for good luck) with beads trailing down from the strap down to the waist where it swirled downwards. Hermione showed everyone the dresses for Amber, Ginny, Patricia and Luna. It was a dress of a rich purple. It was one of the simplest dresses in the shop, with no intricate designs, just a simple braid pattern to make it elegant.

It was six when the witches apparated back to the Burrow, the dresses had been packed and sent to the Burrow already.

"Come on, Amber, we need to get ready for tonight." Hermione said once they had arrived.
