Hey! Sorry to keep you waiting. I'm afraid this chapter is a little shorter than the others, but whatever. So in this chapter, you learn a little more about draco's past. This is gonna be fun…..

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter.

It was big. No wait, that's an understatement. It was HUGE. Luna, Tonks, and I were all staring at it. The huge, brick building, with an even bigger purple sign. It said, 'Hermione's finally getting hitched!'.

"You really do love to embarrass me, don't you?" I said, looking at a smirking Ginny.

"Well, Yeah. Pretty much." Ginny said, taking my hand and leading me inside, all the other girls following.

"Now Hermione, I know you didn't want a bachelorette party, but I just couldn't resist. So please, try and be just a little enthusiastic."

"Oh….. Fine." I said, rolling my eyes.

Ginny opened the huge double doors, and I was abruptly met with a loud 'surprise'. Every girl that I knew from Hogwarts was here. Even some of the girls from beauxbatons that I had grown close to in fourth year were there. I gave Ginny one last death glare before she pushed me toward of group of girls from our year.

"Um, Hermione, could I talk to you for a second?" The girl who had just come to stand behind me said.

"Sure." I said, turning around and seeing the last person I ever thought would be there. Astoria Greengrass. Draco's ex-fiancé. "Um…. Why are-"

"Please, I'm only asking for a moment of your time." She practically begged. I nodded my head and she told me to follow her outside.

"Can I help you with something?" I said, crossing my arms and sticking out my left hip.

"I, well there is no easy way to say this. But, I came to tell you that I still love Draco." She said, fiddling with her hands nervously.

"Wait…. What? For a second there it sounded like you said you loved him or something."

"That's because I did. You see, I made a stupid mistake. A really, really stupid. When Draco came home from work one day, and found me and Blaise in bed together. I was really lonely, and he had just started his new position at the ministry, and he was never home. So then he started to yell and I kicked him out of the house saying that he should have been there for me. When I heard that he had moved, I tried to track him down, but I couldn't find him. Then, Some people in Diagon alley were talking about you and Draco getting married, and I just had to come and I find you. The point is, I'm not leaving without Draco." Astoria said, backing up about three feet when she saw my face turn three shades of red.

"You listen here, and you listen good. Draco Malfoy is mine. You can't have him. You had your chance, and you blew it. Draco and I are getting married tomorrow, and there is nothing you can do about it. He. Is. Mine." I said, getting up in her face, ready to ring her neck. I've had just about enough of this whole 'crazy ex fiance' thing.

"Oh, there's nothing I can do about it, huh? We'll see about that." Astoria said, backing away just enough so she could apparate without me following her. I stood there, mouth open, shocked at what had just happened.

"Da** it." I said, walking back into the restaurant to find Ginny.

Meanwhile… (Draco pov)

It was quiet. Too quiet. In fact, it was down right creepy. The only sound I could hear was my accelerated breathing. I had just barely dodged one of Remus's paintballs, and ducked behind a barrel. I had yet to see potter. Now was my chance. I saw Blaise running through the middle of the court, wildly shooting paint at the sand bags Remus was behind. I held my breath, got on my knees and stood up just enough for my eyes and gun to be over the barrel.

"Aim, Draco." I said, my finger on the trigger. I looked into the tiny magnifying glass, and chose Blaise's back as my target. Then, I pulled the trigger three times. Blaise went down hard. He was running at full speed, and was now rolling on the floor, paint all over his back.

"Man down! Man down!" Blaise said, when he finally stopped rolling, and was grabbing at his back.

It had been 10 seconds since I was behind the barrel. I stopped to laugh at Blaise. Big mistake. My eyes widened when I heard the pop of a gun going off. Before I could move, I was hit with an orange paint right on my side.

"Ouch!" I said, pulling my shirt up, noticing a welt was already beginning to form. "Potter! It's on now!" I screamed, seeing Harry smirking from behind some netting.

"Bring it on Malfoy!" Harry said, running over to Remus. Before Remus could get a clear shot at Harry, Harry had just planted a green paintball right on remus's thigh.

Harry then, being the clumsy one, tripped over his shoelace, his gun flying 10 feet in front of him. Merlin had finally given me my chance. I jumped up and aim at harry. I pulled the trigger 5 times, only three of my 'bullets' hitting their target.

"Malfoy! Never shoot a man when he's down!" Harry said, Jumping up and reaching his gun. Remus had seen harry and took 2 shots at him. Harry grabbed his leg in pain and when he finally picked up his gun. He then shot at Blaise, hitting him 3 times on the shoulder. "You're next Malfoy!" He said, running toward me.

I turned around and hadn't expected my jacket to be on the ground. I tripped and fell just when Harry was standing over me.

"Any last words?" Harry said, gun pointed at my stomach. I planned on cursing him when I saw her running toward me.

"Astoria?" I said, looking at her.

"What kind of last word is that?" Harry said, shooting my stomach with a purple ball. He then moved away from me, and turned around to see a girl running toward me. Blasie and Remus had come over at this point, and were now staring at Astoria, who was kneeling over me.

"Oh boy." Blaise said, clearly unamused.

"Drakey poo! Are you okay?" Astoria said, putting her hands on either side of my face.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I said, scooting away from her, and standing up.

"I came to take you home. With me." She said, trying to hold my hand.

"You do realize I'm getting married tomorrow, right?" I said, jerking my hand away from hers.

"Oh, I know. But I'm not gonna let such a stupid thing like marriage stop me."

"You really are crazy. I'm not going with you. I'm getting married to the love of my life tomorrow, and there is nothing you can do about it." I said, putting my fingers on my wand, ready to hex her if needed.

"Yeah, Hermione said that too." Astoria said, aiming her wand at me. "Petrificus to-" She said, before she just disappeared.

"What the hell just happened?" Blaise said, looking at the spot Astoria was just a few moments ago.

"Sorry." Harry said, smiling. We all turned to look at him, confused.

"You did that?" I said, clutching my stomach in the place he shot me.

"Yeah. That happens sometimes when I feel a sense of danger." He said, trying not to meet any of our eyes.

"Well done harry! That has got to be one of the best wandless displays of magic I have ever seen! You really are James's son." Remus said, smiling at Harry.

"So where did you send her?" Blaise said, curiously.

"Oh I have no idea. It's different every time. Last time that happened, they ended up in the middle of the ocean." Harry said, as I stuck my hand out at him. He shook it, and I gave him my thanks. Then, we all stood there, basking in the awkward silence that had ghosted over the room.

"Soo….. Who won?" Remus whispered, effectively breaking the awkward moment.

Back to Hermione…. (Hermione pov)

"Ginny! Ginny! Where are you?" I called over a crowd of people, trying to get a glimpse of my red headed maid of honor.

"Over here, Hermione! Excuse me for just one second." Ginny replied, the last bit meant for the group of girls she was talking to. She made her way over to me, and then I led her to the bathroom.

"What do you need Hermione?" Ginny said, looking in the mirror and tucking a few strands of hair behind her ear.

"Astoria just same and talked to me." I said, not meaning to be blunt.

Ginny then stopped what she was doing, and immediately looked at me with a serious expression. "What did she say to you?"

"Well…. Um….." I stuttered.

"Spit it out, Hermione!" Ginny yelled, her tone a little bit aggressive.

"She said that she was still in love with draco, and she was going to try and stop the wedding she can get back together with him."

"Did she really?"

"Well, not in those words, but yeah. Pretty much."

"Well then. I wouldn't worry about it, Hermione." Ginny said, brushing it off as if it was nothing.

"Not worry about it? Not worry about it? How can you say that? She is going to try and RUIN my wedding! Why are you so calm?" I said, going into a slight panic.

"Because Hermione, In the short month I have known Draco, I am certain that he is over Astoria, and focused on you. Not once did he ever bring her up, because he was too busy telling Harry how great you were. Now does it really seem like Draco would get back together with that witch of a woman?" (pun intended) Ginny said, looking at me like I had gone mental.

"Well no." I said, not about to argue with the weasly famous for her fiery temper.

"Exactly. Besides, I bet Draco has already taken care of it. Or, Harry has, I know that. Now let's go enjoy the party." Ginny said with a smile.

I couldn't help but smile back at her. "Fine. But I just can't shake the feeling that something is gonna go wrong." I said as Ginny and I walked out of the lady's room, and back over to some raven claws from our year. Apparently, Ginny had not even Grasped the truth of my last statement.
