The marriage law

part 32

The Weasley-Brown wedding ceremony was over and no one, could say it was done cheaply or badly. It was beautiful. Ron had pulled out all the stops to give Lavender the wedding of her dreams. Releasing doves, a beautiful castle where their ceremony and reception was held, a live band, everything, he did everything because he truly did love her. Students from the school had come, as well as teachers. Dumbledore was kind enough to give everyone (Hermione, Draco, Harry, Ginny, Blaise and Luna) who helped with the wedding and the newlyweds three more days off, so they would return to the school Wednesday evening.

Hermione was better today, she had been given the day relief potion by Narcissa and no more symptoms were seen but Hermione had her doubts. This was beyond a normal flu and she needed to find Ginny fast.

"Hey," Draco grabbed her at the reception when she came in after the bride and groom.

"Hey yourself," Hermione kissed him lightly. "Have you seen Ginny?"

"Aren't bridesmaids meant to enter together?"

"I know!" Hermione sighed. "Harry turned up and dragged Ginny away and..."

"It's eating time," Draco announced to her. The guests had begun eating. "Stop worrying about Ginny, she'll be back before the main course. We're needed at the head table."

Hermione nodded as Draco led her to the head table.

"You need to keep your strength up," he said as they sat down.

Hermione turned to Lavender, "How's it feel to be married?"

"Haven't experienced it much yet!" Lavender giggled. "Where's my other bridesmaid?"

Luna, who was the fourth bridesmaid turned to her, "Her and Harry are making out in the corner outside."

"What corner?" Draco intervened.

Hermione hit him playfully, "Their married, they have their own house, yet they need to run off and snog in a corner!"

"We are still young you know, just because we're married doesn't mean we're an old married couple!" Ginny's voice was heard behind them as she took her place.

Harry grinned as he sat down beside Ron.

"The best man should not disappear like that!" Ron warned. "Should have asked Draco to be best man then."

Draco looked at him, "Oh Merlin, Weasley said my name!"

"Oh Merlin," Ron looked as if he was going to faint.

The others all laughed at the two.

Hermione turned to Draco and kissed him softly, "You and Ron are so cute."

"Shut up woman!" Draco muttered.

Hermione laughed. Ron pouted a lot as did Draco, which everyone other than the two found extremely amusing. After the dinner was over it was customary for the bride and groom to dance.

"Feels like yesterday it was us," Draco whispered to Hermione as he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her to him.

"Hmm," Hermione smiled.

He pulled her to the dance floor, where they moved to the music.

"Wanna find that corner?" Draco smirked.

Hermione giggled, "No!"

"Oi why not?"

"Because we have a perfectly good home to get too."

"Well let's apparate home and back, no one would know."

"Draco, is that all you think about?"

"Yes it is," Draco smiled, as he kissed her ear gently. "I have a present to give to you later."
