The wedding
Harry stood in the old room he had shared with Ron when he came to stay with them in the summer when he was at school, standing in front of a tall mirror he was wearing a black tuxedo and a long red tie, Ron was standing next to him nervously wearing the same except a gold tie instead of red. Neville and George were sitting on the bed putting on their shoes and Teddy was running around the room shifting his hair from red to gold respectively.
"Do you know how i'm the ring bear" Teddy asked looking in up at himself in the mirror, he was wearing the same as Harry only smaller.
"Ring bearer" Harry corrected his godson
"Oh, i thought i had to dress up as a bear" Teddy said changing his hair to dark brown much like an actual beat
"No, Teddy" George laughed and Ron managed to smile a bit despite his nerves.
"Why do i have to wear this" Teddy said gesturing at his tux
"Because its a wedding" Neville said tying his tie
"Why can't we wear bright colours like pink and t-shirts" Teddy asked still tugging at his tie.
"I don't think it's really appropriate" Ron said taking for the first time, consumed with nerves. Before Teddy could argue, Mr Weasley walked through the door
"Ready boys" Mr Weasley said walking through the door and into the room.
"Yeah, yeah" Teddy said exited at the prospect of leaving the room.
"Come on" Harry urged Ron and they left the house for the marquee.
The marquee was beautiful, A shaky Ron set off the aisle and the music began first walked Harry and Luna, she was wearing a pretty red dress and was smiling brightly at Harry as they parted and he stood next to a very scared Ron, next came Neville and Hermione's cousin Jazmin, a tall black haired girl, George and Angelina came in shortly after and finally Teddy and Victoire came in, Teddy was concentrating on holding the rings and Victoire was throwing petal and smiling. Next came Hermione herself and her very weepy father. Hermione looked gorgeous she was wearing a strapless white dress and a veil that was placed at the top of her bun walking down the aisle with breeze she stood opposite a dumbfounded Ron.
The wedding was quick and beautiful, everything ran smoothly Teddy did a fantastic job as ring bearer and he only whined a bit at the end when he said his feet were tired so Harry picked him up and he stopped complaining after that. Harry mind became distracted when he watched Ron and Hermione exchange vows all he could think about was him standing at the alter marrying Ginny and it would be Mrs Weasley crying at her only daughters marriage not Mrs Granger, Harry knew he was being selfish but he couldn't help himself, he just missed her.

Harry watched as the couples dance, Hermione and Ron in the centre not having a care in the world, Mr and Mrs Weasleys were trying to dance gracefully but failing even Victoire had somehow persuaded Teddy to dance with her, much to Teddy's dismay. Harry was standing at the sideline happily watching the smiling couples when he noticed someone watching him. She was a tall blonde girl who was standing in the corner by her self not appearing to know anyone trying to be friendly Harry walked up to her.
"Hello" Harry said greeting her, the girl smiled at him
"Hi" the girl said shyly twirling her long blonde hair.
"I'm Harry" he said introducing himself
"Sarah" The girl said slightly more confident.
"How do you know Hermione or Ron" Harry asked striking up conversation
"She used to live on the same street as me, we went to primary school together, then she went to boarding school and i didn't see her until the summer " Sarah said warmly her green eyes staring at him. She was a muggle, they had all placed charms on the marquee and the burrow earlier to make it look like a normal wedding to muggles earlier, it had worked as no muggles had noticed Teddy change his hair from green to gold or George levitating the cake by magic.
" You're the best man aren't you" Sarah asked curiously and Harry shifted out from his day dream.
"Yeah , i met Ron and Hermione at boarding school" Harry said looking over at Ron and Hermione who were gazing into each others eyes
"Is the little boy your son" she asked sweetly glancing over at Teddy who was annoying Victoire.
"No he's my godson" Harry said running a hand through his dark hair. The music slowed to a halt and a slow song began to play.
"Do you want to dance, i love this song" Sarah said practically dragging Harry onto the dance floor, not taking no for an answer.
"I'm not a really good dancer" Harry admitted, Harry was in fact a terrible dancer he had been rubbish at the yule ball and hadn't danced with anyone since.
"Neither am i" Sarah said and she wrapped her arms around his neck and Harry put his arms around her waist. Sarah was actually a good dancer Harry observed as they danced around the room, he could tell Teddy was watching him and coping his every move, Sarah was also watching him carefully her green eyes reflecting of his slowly moving up to his scar.
"How did you get your scar" She whispered putting her head on his shoulder.
"It's a very long story" Harry said simply.
"I'll have to make time to hear it one day then" she said quietly her head still on his shoulder.
"I guess you will" Harry said moving her blonde hair to the side to get a better look at her face. The song stopped and Sarah stopped leaning on his shoulder and looked at him.
" I have to get home" she said sadly looking at her watch.
"Right now" Harry said m, he liked Sarah, she was becoming his friend and Harry thought it would be a shame that they would not get to spend time with each other.
"Unfortunately, yes" Sarah said and she smiled at Hermione who noticed her and walked out the door, Harry following her.
"Goodbye" Harry said smiling at Sarah as she got out a piece if paper and handed it to Harry.
" Here's my number" she smiled passing him the small piece of paper. Sarah suddenly turned to face in, leaned in and kissed him. Harry knew he should of stopped her but he didn't.
"Goodbye" She said pulling away and Harry realised that she didn't just want to be friends.
