"FASCINATING THE BAT" (+18) *Severus Snape.

CHAPTER 31 🦇

What a nuisance it was to prepare a wedding!.

That was what she was just now going through Hermione's mind as she spent almost three hours watching her friend try on dress after dress and not knowing which one was appropriate to say yes to her.

She had already picked out three different models and she was still undecided which one to choose.

With each new piece of clothing she put on, she would turn to look at her and ask for her honest opinion.

It seemed to Hermione that with anyone she looked spectacular, but Ginny was not convinced by that and she went back to take a look at them.

Hermione was beginning to regret having asked for a few days' leave to assist her friends in this torture, because she already felt that way. On top of everything, her nausea had not stopped, what's more now, not a day went by without feeling that she would expel her entrails,especially in the mornings.

This scared her a bit and for that reason she decided that going to St. Mungo's would be the most logical thing to do, but with how busy she was because of her friends, she would leave it until after the happy wedding.

And she would even try to pretend so as not to worry anyone more than necessary.

She looks at the redhead who continues to hesitate and, tired of the situation, suggests that she wear the mermaid cut that perfectly accentuated her curves, emphasizing that Harry wouldn't wait until he said *I accept* to take it off.

That argument seemed to please her because she finally followed her advice.

They were married three days later.

Obviously in the burrow.

All the decorations were arranged as at Fleur and Billy's wedding, for the simple reason that Mr. Weasley wanted to bear all the expenses, flatly refusing to have Harry's support and financing. And there was no power that made him accept his son-in-law's proposal.

But like that time, the burrow looks wonderful.

Hermione helps dress Ginny along with her other sisters-in-law, who like her would be her entourage of bridesmaids.

Her wedding dress was an ivory mermaid cut with a sweetheart neckline where there was an embroidery with pearls, it had thin straps and a long train with an openwork design with flowers. Her veil consisted of a fine tulle that covered even her face and would be attached to her head by a tiara with silver-colored hearts set. The bouquet was white and red Lilies in honor of Harry's mom.

After Ginny is done, Hermione finishes arranging mostly her hairstyle which she wears in a high updo where soft waves fall over the sides of her face outlining her fine face.

The dress that Ginny had chosen for all her bridesmaids was A-line with a v-neckline and had a drape over the bust that was tied at the waist with a burgundy satin bow and the length was just above the knees, but although the model was the same for all what differentiated them was in the color. Hermione got one in emerald color that matched the fine shoes embellished with rhinestones on the heel.

When everyone is ready, they go outside the bigtent, where Mr. Weasley patiently waited for his beloved daughter to walk her down the aisle and hand her over to the man to whom he fully trusted her safety.

Harry looked very elegant in his black suit, which consisted of black pants and jacket with a gray shirt and vest, and closing his look with a black bow tie. His shoes were also dark.

Hermione is moved to see her friends swear eternal love and she can't help but shed a few tears. She never got sentimental about things like this but lately she had all of her senses in high gear.
