Chapter 39- Can You Imagine
Sunday, May 6^th, 2001 10:44am
Hermione stood in front of the overly large mirror as a muggle seamstress finished the last stitch in her wedding dress. The silver embroidery on the strapless corset top, flowed down into the skirt of the ball gown, making it look like vines trickled down the dress. She was in love with the details and it suited her taste perfectly and she admired how simple, yet intricate, the dress was. She couldn’t wait to wear it on her wedding day; the day, they so far, have yet to pick out.
Ginny had dragged her to so many shops in the wizarding world to try on dresses over the last month, but none of them seemed to fit Hermione’s taste. To her, it felt wrong to go anywhere but a muggle shop, so Ginny brought her to a family owned business in the middle of East London.
She did a small twirl as she looked herself over once the seamstress was done and walked away. Hermione couldn’t help but smile as she tried to hold back tears. She had always dreamed of her wedding day; from the songs that would play, to the beautiful red roses that would scatter throughout the room. But so far, the only thing she had been able to plan was her wedding dress. She didn’t even have a venue picked out yet.
As Hermione laid her hands upon the skirt of her dress, pressing away the nonexistent creases, Ginny stepped out of the dressing room wearing a very pretty, long, red, bridesmaid dress with gold heels. The dress fit her perfectly and looked very similar to the one she wore on the night of the Malfoy family Charity Ball.
“Oh Ginny! Look at you! You look amazing!” she expressed as she held her hands to her lips in excitement.
“Me? Look at you! I can’t believe this is happening! You look gorgeous Mione! Draco is going to lose his mind when he sees you!”
Hermione let off a blushing smiles as she turned back to look in the mirror.
“You think so?” she asked with her cheeks now pink.
“I know so!” Ginny expressed with a wide grin. “Here put this on I want to get the full affect.” She handed over her silver tennis bracelet that she removed from her wrist. “Think of it as something borrowed.” She smiled. “Now let’s see what you’ll look like with your hair and makeup done.”
She looked around the corner to make sure no one was watching and pulled out her wand.
If Hermione was paying attention to her best friend, she would have noticed Ginny’s slight mischievous smile as she looked at her with pride. She would have noticed that Ginny had her hair done perfectly in a side ponytail that laid on her shoulders and how flawless her make up looked. However, Hermione was too focused on her own thoughts to even gain a hint of what the red head was up to.
Hermione’s mouth hung open as she watched her hair fall out of the loose bun with a simple flick of Ginny’s wrist. The messy up do fell to her shoulders in light waves that made any hair style she has ever had look like a child did it. Ginny added some light brown highlights before she pinned back some of her hair with a blue butterfly clip.
“Something blue.”
She added some make up to complete the look and Hermione stood there, stunned, as she looked at herself.
“Gin…you didn’t have to do all of this…this…this is amazing!” Hermione stood shell-shocked looking in the mirror.
“Wait…one more thing.”
Ginny pulled out a silver necklace from her bag and brought it around her neck. Hermione’s hand instantly went to touch the pendant when she recognized it as Dimitra’s.
“Oh my God, Ginny! Where did you get this!” she asked with her mouth in an o shape.
“I found it at the house. And before you ask the stone is just a ruby, I made sure.” She giggled as she finished clasping the necklace and rested her chin on her shoulder. “Now you look like a bride.” She smiled. “Something old and…something new.” She held out the earrings she gave her before the ball.
Ginny stepped away but Hermione was too shocked to notice Ginny lean back and wink at someone standing just outside the shop.
“Oh!” Ginny exclaimed “I’ll be right back.”
“Where are you going?” Hermione asked confused, looking at her through the mirror.
“Just outside; I’ll be right back, just don’t change, okay? I want to get pictures of you in that dress!” she beamed as she walked away still in her bridesmaid dress.
Hermione shrugged her shoulders and took a seat on one of the benches in the shop as she waited for her friend to return. She put the earrings in and picked up a bridal magazine. She began flipping through the pages but only got to the fourth page, when Ginny came back looking terrified.
“What’s wrong Gin?” she asked worried as she set the magazine down.
“We have an emergency! Put these on and follow me!” Ginny claimed handing her a pair of plain white ballet flats.
“Emergency? What happened? I should go change!” Hermione stood up in a panic.
“No time! I explained to the owner that we need to leave now. The dresses are already paid for so it’s not like you are stealing anyway; just hurry up we have to go!”
“Ginny, I can’t leave here wearing a wedding dress!”
“Mione! We don’t have time to argue about this; put your shoes on and let’s go!”
Hermione dropped the flats and slipped them on to her feet before following Ginny out the front door.
“Ginny what happened? Where are we going?” Hermione asked frantic holding her dress up, assuming the worse as Ginny dragged her down an alleyway.
Ginny though, said nothing. Instead, she grabbed her hands and apparated them both away.
They arrived outside a house that Hermione had instantly recognized as the Tutor house she and Draco had snuck into, back in 1912. She was confused why Ginny had brought her to Southampton of all places.
‘No one she knew would be in the town, let alone have an emergency at the old museum.’
“Gin, what are we doing here?” she asked in concern.
“I told you, we have an emergency. Speaking of which.” She pulled out her wand and pointed it inside her bag.
“What are you doing?” Hermione asked perplexed.
Ginny ignored her question and casted a wordless charm, reached into her handbag, and pulled out two rose bouquets. She handed her the large full red one as she kept the smaller white one in her own hands. She grabbed Hermione’s hand and began dragging her down the side street to the back of the building.
People were smiling and staring at Hermione and she could only imagine why. She was being pulled by her Maid of Honor, down a street, wearing a ball gown wedding dress, still worried that someone was in trouble.
“Ginny!” she yelled as she came to a stop just outside the large gate in the back and pulled her hand from her best friend. “What is going on?” she asked firmly.
But Ginny just smiled before looking around Hermione and motioning with her eyes to turn around. Hermione was reluctant as she was still confused, but slowly turned around to see her smiling father looking down at her with pride. He was wearing a black tux with a white shirt and a red tie and he looked so handsome.
“Daddy? What are you doing here?” she asked gently.
Hermione turned slightly to ask Ginny again what was happening as she heard Celine Dion’s- Because You Loved Me, start to play in the background. But Ginny had slipped through the gate leaving her alone with her father.
Mr. Granger grinned as he looked at his only daughter with such love.
“You look beautiful Hermione.” He stated with watery eyes. “I am so proud of you.”
“Dad?” was all she could mutter as he reached out an arm for her to take.
“Are you ready?” he asked when she finally realized what was happening.
Hermione was struck speechless as she looked at her father with tears of her own forming in her caramel eyes. She hooked an arm through his as she nodded her head and chortled.
The song continued to play through the second chorus as he walked her up to the gate. He patted her hand tenderly and two men on the other side opened the double doors revealing a garden full of her closest family and friends.
“You were my strength when I was weak…”
The people in the garden stood up from their seats as they looked back at her with smiling faces. Hermione herself couldn’t help but let out a giggle as she looked around and saw everyone she ever loved, watch her begin to walk down the aisle.
Hermione looked up and saw Ginny grinning from ear to ear as she stood next to Luna who was wearing the exact same red dress and held the same white rose bouquet in her hands. Kingsley Shacklebolt looked up from the podium and smiled. Blaise stood on the other side in a black tux that matched her father, with Theo standing next to him.
She was confused however, why no groom stood at the end. However, she sucked in her bottom lip when Draco stood up from the front row where he was seated next to his mother and father, and made his way to stand to the right of Blaise.
“You saw the best there was in me…”
His smile beamed when he saw her walking down the aisle and she too smiled widely with happiness. She couldn’t believe that this was happening. She never thought that Draco would plan something so wonderful for her and he somehow got everyone, including Hagrid and Professor McGonagall, to show up.
Her father continued to walk her down the aisle, all the while, Draco never took his eyes off of her.
“I’m everything I am, because you loved me...”
Mr. Granger stopped walking once they reached the altar, and turned to face his daughter. He smiled brightly as he released her arm and kissed her forehead as the song ended.
“Who gives this woman to be married this man today?” Kingsley asked.
“Her mother and I do.” Mr. Granger stated proudly.
“Very well.” He bowed his head as Mr. Granger hugged Hermione and then hugged Draco. “You take good care of her son.” He whispered loud enough for Hermione to hear.
“Always.” Draco replied pulling back from the hug and shaking the man’s hand.
Taking Hermione’s hand from him; he faced his bride to be and looked at her. His grey eyes pierced her caramel ones with such fondness, her heart skipped a beat. He was looking at her, like she was the only one in the garden.
“You look beautiful Hermione.” He whispered so only she could hear.
“Draco,” She smiled “How did you do all of this-When did you do all of this?”
He held a finger to his lips with a half-smile and turned to Kingsley.
“Dearly beloved…” Kingsley began.
Kingsley went on to say the rest of his speech. He talked about love and honor; how he saw the pair grow up and how they have come together, finally letting the past be the past.
“And now for the vows and rings.” He spoke gently.
“Oh, I…I didn’t write anything.” Hermione looked at him with worry as Blaise handed Draco a ring.
“I have.” Draco cut in as he turned to face her.
He grabbed her left hand in his, began to place the ring on her finger partially, and took a deep breath.
“Hermione…I remember the day we came here. It was our first date and I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember standing in this very spot, when you turned to me and said ‘Can you imagine having a wedding here? The pictures would be to die for.’…I thought then, that I would never get to have or experience a wedding, in this garden, with you. Little did I know, how wrong I was…I have spent most of my life, looking down. I had this fear for the longest time that…that this wasn’t real. Because in my head, love like this only happens to other people; not to me. I was lost for so long. I was a coward and someone I thought was unlovable and incapable of loving someone else. But you changed my opinion of myself. You helped show me, who I really am….The day you told me you loved me, made me the happiest man on the planet. And in that moment…I finally looked up…You have always been the strongest one of your friends,” he looked to Harry and Ron sitting in the front row on her side “No offense.” He laughed while her friends shrugged, knowing he was right. “You have always been the annoying bookworm who out shined me in every class, well…except potions.” He chuckled “You always had your nose in a book and you were always the first one to raise your hand in class. You were insufferable and a know-it-all… but…I admired you then, even if I didn’t exactly show it. You are the brightest witch of our age; why you chose me? I will never understand.” He let out a light laugh along with the rest of the crowd. “But you saved me. You saved me from myself and I love you so much for that. You have shown me what it feels like to be free, to give without expecting anything in return and be happy about it, to care for others who bleed the same blood I do…I can’t promise that I won’t ever hurt you, I can’t promise that I won’t make decisions for you, and I can’t promise that I won’t mess up and make you mad…What I can promise you though, is that I will always defend you...I promise that I will always stand by your side even when I don’t agree with you…I promise…That I won’t ever forget…that you, are my home. Where ever you are…is where I belong. I love you Hermione Jean Granger. I love you with every fiber of my being and I promise, I always will.”
The women in the audience teared up as they began to wipe their eyes with tissues and jokingly hit their husbands for not saying the same romantic things to them.
Hermione on the other hand, bit her bottom lip as she tried not to cry while Draco slipped a silver diamond band down the rest of her finger. She felt a light tap her on her shoulder, so she turned slightly and Ginny began wiping her tears away with a tissue, so she would not ruin her make-up, and handed her a plain silver band and took her bouquet. Hermione let out a breathy giggle before she turned back around and looked at Draco.
“That was very moving Mr. Malfoy.” Kingsley smiled. “Now if you could Hermione, place the ring on-”
“Wait.” Hermione held up a hand to interrupt him.
Draco looked confused at the action and looked to her with slight worry in his eyes.
“I’d like to say something too…”
Kingsley bowed his head slightly to let her continue. Hermione took in a deep breath and held Draco’s left hand in hers, copying the same process he did with her ring, before she looked up into his beautiful stormy grey eyes.
“…I don’t have anything planned; in fact I didn’t have anything but this dress planned.” She let out a chuckle. “…I didn’t plan to fall in love with you Draco; in fact not long ago, I planned to fully keep hating you…but I did fall in love with you. I didn’t plan to go through hell and high water, pun intended.” She winked and the people who knew what she was talking about, let out light laughs. “But I did. I didn’t plan to get up here and say what is in my heart to you, hoping that it sounds just as good as your vows…but I am…I don’t really know what to say, except that I love you. You have shown me things too, you know? And I have learned that it’s okay, to not always be okay. You have shown me that, it’s good to let loose and have a fun and that not everything has to be serious all the time. You have taught me, that even if people don’t like me, that it’s okay to not let it affect me or who I am as a person. Because of you, I know that it is perfectly normal and fine, to be afraid sometimes, and that I don’t always have to be brave. You saved me too Draco, just as much as I have saved you. There is a quote I read once… ‘Love isn't perfect. It isn't a fairytale or a storybook and it doesn't always come easy. Love is overcoming obstacles, facing challenges, fighting to be together, holding on and never letting go…It is a short word, easy to spell, difficult to define, and impossible to live without…Love is work, but most of all, Love is realizing that every hour, every minute, and every second was worth it because you did it together. Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So, love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't. Know that everything happens for a reason. And if you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said that life would be easy; they just promised it would be worth it.’ So…from this day forward, I promise to always love you Draco, even when you make me mad…in this world and the next.”
Draco wiped a stray tear from his eyes and leaned down to kiss her.
“Eh, em!” Kingsley grunted. “Not yet son.” He winked.
Draco pulled back with a large grin and wiggled back and forth in anticipation.
“Hurry up will you.” he stated with impatience.
The crowd laughed and Kingsley shook his head.
“Do you, Draco Lucius Malfoy, take Hermione, to be your lawfully wedded wife? To have and to hold, from this day forward?”
“I do.” He stated proudly.
“And do you, Hermione Jean Granger, take Draco, to be you lawfully wedded husband? To have and to hold, from this day forward?”
“I do.” She beamed.
“If anyone here has reason, that these two shall not be wed…then you should have said something earlier, because it’s too late now! By the power vested in me of and the Ministry for Magic, I now pronounce you Husband and Wife! You may kiss the bride!”
Draco quickly pulled Hermione in to a deep and passionate kiss as the crowd stood up cheering and clapping.
“May I be the first to introduce to you, Mr. and Mrs. Draco Malfoy!” Kingsley shouted with raised hands.
The kiss broke but the couple kept looking into each other eyes as their foreheads stayed connected and smiled at each other for a moment, before turning to face the crowd and raised their hands in happiness.

12:53pm
Draco and Hermione were introduced during their reception in the Tutor house’s Grand Hall, after the bridal party. Hermione looked around the room and still could not believe that it was her wedding day. A DJ was placed on the stage ready to start the first dance song as Ginny, Luna, Blaise, and Theo took their seats at the head table directly in front of him.
The couple walked to the center of the dance floor and Draco placed a hand on Hermione’s hip before holding out his right hand for her to take. Placing a hand on his shoulder she smiled up at him as the music began.
“Draco? What song is this?” she asked as the soft intro played.
“You’ll see.” Was all he said as he pulled her in closer.
Hermione looked at him confused until she heard live singers begin to sing the word ‘baby’ over and over again. Her face made and o as she slowly looked away from Draco and up at the stage.
“I will never find another lover, sweeter than you; sweeter than you.”
“Oh my Godric!” she expelled through a breath.
“And I will never find another lover, more precious than you; more precious than you. Girl you are-”
“K-Ci and Jojo?” she asked stunned while Draco began swaying her back and forth. “Draco how the heck did you get them to play my favorite song, live, at our wedding- wait how did you even know this was my favorite song?”
He didn’t answer right away. Instead he pulled back from her and twirled her around.
“And all my life, I prayed for someone like you. And I thank God that I, that I finally found you.”
She spun back into him and he bent down to kiss her. Once he pulled back he finally spoke.
“You remember when I told you that you talk in your sleep?”
“Vaguely.” She rolled her eyes.
“Well, it took me a long time to understand what you were saying over the past month, until I realized they were lyrics. So I wrote them down every day and had Potter search it on that gooble thing-”
“Google.” She corrected.
“Right. Anyway and we found out who sang it and called them in.” he continued.
“Seriously? I sang lines in my sleep?” she asked slightly mortified.
He let out a laugh and shook his head.
“Said, I promise to never fall in love with a stranger-”
“No! I asked Ginny what your favorite song was and who sang it.” she let out a sigh of relief. “Turns out, your favorite duo are actually squibs.”
“Really?...So that’s how you got them to play at a wedding for magical folks like us?”
“And all my life, baby, baby, I prayed for someone like you. And I thank God that I, that I finally found you.”
Draco dipped her; pulling her back up he twirled them around the dance floor and her dress floated in the air at every turn; making her look and feel like a princess.
She began singing along with the song as Draco continued to smile down at her and waltz her around the floor.
“All my life-”
“And I thank God that I ,that I finally found you.” He sang to her as the song began to slowly fade out and their movements went back to swaying.
The room began to clap when the song was done but Hermione couldn’t look away from her husband.
‘Her husband…she like the sound of that.’
“I love you.” she whispered.
“I love you more little one.” He whispered back before kissing her again.

01:22pm
Hermione was over the moon about how Draco had surprised her. She couldn’t have planned a more perfect wedding then the one he had given to her.
“Speech!” someone in the crowd yelled out.
Draco and Hermione took their seat at the head table and held hands. Ginny stood up from her chair and tapped her knife against her glass to get everyone’s attention and picked up a microphone. As soon as everyone saw it was Ginny, they instantly grew quite so they wouldn’t feel her wrath.
“Eh, em…Mione, Draco…As the Maid of Honor it is my duty to start this speech off. Mainly because Blaise was too much of a chicken to go first.” Everyone laughed and Blaise sunk into his chair. “Anyway,” she waved a hand in the air “I am supposed to tell you both how much I love you and how happy I am for you both but…I can’t.” The room let out a few gasps. “I can’t because…because there are no right words, to tell you how much I love you Hermione.” She began to tear up. “And Draco…trying to find the right words to tell a git like you anything is like, super hard.” She chuckled. “But you have grown on me. You are another brother to me to be honest…I couldn’t have asked for a better soulmate for my sister…You both have been through so much but every hardship that has befallen on you; you both got right back up and pushed through it. You stood by each other and never let anyone bring you down…I know I am supposed to talk about old stories and joke about how Hermione turned herself into a cat accidentally in second year to spy on Draco…”
“What?” Draco interrupted looking at Hermione’s now embarrassed face. “You tried to spy on me?”
“Shush! It’s my turn. “Ginny held a finger to her lips. “Besides, she turned herself into a cat, she couldn’t spy on you…Harry and Ron did- Anyway!” She quickly continued as the people in the room laughed. “I don’t want to embarrass her on her wedding night so I will just say this” she held up her glass…Hermione, I love you so much…and it hasn’t been that long but Draco, I love you too. I wish you both, every happiness. Cheers!” She beamed and stepped in to hug them both.
Once the hugs were broken she passed the mic off to Blaise.
“Well…” he began standing up “I don’t really know how to top that speech but I will give it a go…I knew I should have went first.” He whispered accidentally into the mic and the room giggled at him when he looked up embarrassed. “…Draco,” He continued straightening his suit jacket and turned to the couple. “You are my best mate. How you managed to find a catch like Gran-I mean Mal- Hermione, I’ll never know.” He chuckled. “We are going to have to work on a new nickname for you.” he pointed to Hermione and she shook her head with a smile. “Anyway, I am proud of you man. You have grown so much in such a short amount of time, my head is still spinning. I know a lot of your change was due to the beautiful bride sitting next to you, but I know that it wasn’t all just her. You have finally become the man we all knew you could be and I am so happy for you. You are the brother I never had and Hermione…you have now become my sister…I knew you both would end up together. I didn’t think it would be this soon but I knew it would happen. I am very good at observing people and the night of the Ball, when you saw your gorgeous wife walk into the room, I knew right then and there that you felt something for her. I also noticed in school, when you would not let anyone else pick on her except for yourself and when you would gaze at her during meals, without even realizing you were doing it…I knew…and I knew she would be the one to help you grow…And don’t think Hermione, that I didn’t notice you worry over him in sixth year when Potter was obsessed with figuring out what he was up to. I saw the way you wanted to help him and I saw that you didn’t hate him…at least not aloud. I am so happy that you both have found each other. I couldn’t have asked for a better pairing.” He raised a glass “I love you both, Congratulation!”
Everyone clicked their glasses and Hermione stood up to hug Blaise. When she released, Draco was next her and held out a hand to shake Blaise’s. Blaise reached out and shook his hand but Draco did the unexpected. He pulled him into a hug.

02:16pm
“Mind if I have this dance? I requested this song specifically.” Harry asked with an outstretched hand.
Hermione set down her cake and smiled widely at him.
“Of course Harry!”
She took his hand and moved to the dance floor. Savage Garden, Crash and Burn began to play.
“Harry? I love this song!” she claimed cheerfully.
“When you feel all alone-”
“I know…it’s not just for couples…it also a really good friendship song.” He smiled as they began dancing.
“Give me a moment please; to tame your wild, wild heart.”
He twirled her in a circle and rested his hands on her hips.
“…I am really happy for you Mione. I never thought you would marry Malfoy of all people but I can see that he makes you happy. I still can’t believe he planned all of this in a matter of a few days.”
“Let me be the one you call. If you jump, I’ll break your fall-”
“A few days? Wha-”
“Yeah. He planned it all the day he found out you were pregnant. He got everyone in on it. It was quite surprising to see him work so hard to put it all together. Made me have more respect for him.”
Hermione shook her head slightly at the shock of the news.
‘He did all of this for her.’
“If you need to crash, than crash and burn you’re not alone.”
“He really loves you Mione. I didn’t think he had it in him to change but he has made the effort prove us all wrong. I am happy it’s him you married.”
Hermione smiled at her best friend and rested her head on his shoulder.
“And a loyal friend is hard to find-”
“Me too Harry…Me too.”
“With the monsters in your head.”
“Mind if I cut in?” Ron asked with his hands in his pockets.
“Sure mate.” Harry replied stepping away and giving Hermione to Ron but not before kissing her temple.
Ron stepped in and took her waist.
“Congratulation Mione. Really; I am happy for you…I didn’t think this day would happen with Malfoy as the groom and not me but I have to say…I am glad it’s him.”
“You mean that?” she asked looking up at him.
“Because there has always been heartache and pain-”
“I do. Now, if you would have asked me a few months ago, I would have said you were crazy and he’s a git-”
“You did say that…a month ago.” She laughed.
“True…but now I am saying he’s still a git…and a good friend.”
Hermione tried not to let a tear escape but it was pointless. Ron lifted a finger and wiped it away. He kissed her forehead and looked back down at her.
“Lift you up and fly away with you into the night.”
“I love you Hermione. I always will…but I know that I wasn’t the right one for you. You are my best friend and I couldn’t be happier for you than I am right now. You got everything you not only ever wanted…but everything you ever deserve. I am proud to call you my family.”
Hermione sucked in a breath and hugged Ron tightly.
“I love you too Ronald Weasley…I love you too.”
