A Harry Potter Love Story: Gracie Style 2 *Completed*

The Wedding

PART ONE- I felt bad that chapter was so short and II've been so spotty with updates. So part one is here!

"Nat! Ginny, Mione!" I called, waking up early. I had stayed at the Burrow the night before so as to get ready without having to worry about Harry. I giggled at the thought, blushing. I jumped out of bed and ran to the shower as the girls came rushing in.

"Get your butt in there now! I want you perfect!" Nat commanded, giving me a hard look. I mock saluted my cousin, smiling at her. It's been two months since the end of the war, so we've been wedding storming like crazy. Harry is so brilliant! I couldn't help but to adore how helpful he was with the planning. He gave me true insight, ignoring Fred and George's teasing about loosing his masculinity. I can assure that he hasn't.

I also adore how great a father he is. Both of us jump up in the middle of the night, neither of us minding getting the babies. I smiled at the memory of our race. Harry and I literately race to the bassinets they sleep in. One night we had a competition to see who could get them changed the fastest. I lost, sadly. He's such a great dad..

Bang Bang

"Gracelyn Paige Black!" Nat snapped, pounding on the door.

"Yes?" I called, smirking as I shut off the water. I wrapped myself in a towel as I snickered at her. Apparently I have no name. If you hear a long string of expletives, you'll know Nat's talking to me. I was perfectly content standing in the bathroom and drying off until the nut used magic to unlock the door.

"Get out here now!"

"Okay okay!" I giggled, holding my hands up in surrender. I was shoved down into a chair as they all stared at me. "What is it? Is something wrong?"

"You're glowing." Ginny giggled, making me blush. "Ladies and gentlemen! Gracie Black blushed! Put it in the books!"

"Oh shush." I laughed, standing up. "I'm going to brush my teeth before you start on anything." I smiled, skipping back to the bathroom. My mind skipped to the dress, the one I haven't seen yet. Nat picked it out, along with my shoes. She knew what kind of style I like and knew that I always wanted an old fashioned dress that had a hint of modern in it, so that's what she got. I was eager to see it, squealing in excitement.

I took a deep breath as I finished brushing my teeth, going back to my chair. I was attacked instantly. As I closed my eyes and let them work, a wave of nostalgia hit me. I smiled at all the memories. I remember meeting Harry, and being on the train with him and Ron. I remember how close I was with Mione. I remember meeting Nat for the first time and meeting Dad. I sighed, trying not to cry. Happy tears of course. "The babies are okay, right?"

"Gracie, they're with Mum." Gin rolled her eyes, making me nod and take another deep breath. I do that a lot. If they're not in my line of sight for a certain time period I get edgy. Harry does too. I looked down at the table, seeing an emerald pendant there. "Nat."

"To compliment Harry's eyes." I giggled at Nat, she winked in return. "Gracie, you've looked like you were in thought for a while now?"

"I was replaying every single memory." I smiled, playing with my fingers.

"We're done!" Mione laughed, spinning my chair towards the mirror. I gasped, smiling at my image. My hair was wavy up until the end where there were loose hanging curls. My makeup was done in whites, silvers, and light pinks. I looked at my skin, which despite the scars I acquired this year, looked flawless. I squealed happily, jumping up to hug my girls.

"Thank you thank you thank you!"

"You're welcome. Now, Ginny and I are going to get your dress and veil. We'll get your blue, borrowed, and new stuff as well. Mione, keep her calm?"

"Of course." Mione smiled, squeezing my hand reassuringly. When they left the room, I pounced on her.

"I missed you Mione. I was remembering how close we used to be.. Remember in first year, when you came home with Uncle Remy and me for the Christmas holiday? We came back and Ron and Harry were so freaked out because we did everything in sync." I giggled, sitting on the bed beside her.

"Oh my, I forgot about that!" We laughed together, hugging each other and reminiscing. "So, who do you think will end up with who? I wanna do girl talk!" She clapped her hands together excitedly. "Neville and Luna?"

"Hannah and Neville." I winked, watching her mouth take an 'o' form. Mione nodded furiously, peaked at the door and then used the muffliato charm.

"Ginny and Draco will be together by next week." She smirked, causing me to nod.

"Oh definitely. I see it." I giggled, kicking my feet since they hung off the bed. Mione snickered, watching them.

"Dwarf."

"Hey!" I laughed, right as the door opened. I smiled, glad to have a moment alone with Mione. Truth is, we haven't in a long time. Someone was always there with us. Always.

"Ready? Now remember, Mione and Ginny helped pick it out!" I was warned as Ginny set my shoes by my feet. I nodded eagerly, taking a deep breath. I gasped at the beauty of the dress. Pure white, of course. It had lace sleeves and was tight up top, flaring at the waist. At them bottom, there was a sort of design, like flames licking up it but in white. It had pearls seen into the bottom as well, looking like sparking snow falling into the flames. My eyes watered, but that was put to a stop.

"Don't you dare cry!" Ginny gave me the stink eye, pointing a stern finger at me. "You'll ruin your makeup!"

"Okay Molly." I teased, nudging her playfully. She stuck her tongue out, helping me into my white lace up boots. I blushed deeply as Nat helped place the garter. It was my something new, Ginny bought it. For the something blue, it was a mixture if blue and green. I sort of clip for my veil that Mione had got for me. And my borrowed was the pendant from Nat. Mione held up my hair while Nat fastened the clasp, the three of them stepping back to admire their work.

"Knock knock!" Mum called from outside the door, stepping in. She gasped, putting a hand to her mouth. "Oh Baby! You look so beautiful!" She smiled, eyes watering. I lifted my skirt, speed walking to her. I hugged her tightly, the two of us stood like that for a few minutes before the music started. "I came to tell you that the boys were here, but you distracted me." Mum smiled, opening the door. I took a deep breath, nodding quickly.

Ginny, then Mione, then Nat stood in line as Mum went down stairs and Dad came up. I took another deep breath as he smiled at me, linking out arms together. "I love you Gracie." He whispered, watching as Ginny stared towards the tent. We kept pace with the music as I looked up at Dad.

"I love you too." I smiled, leaning into him. "Best Dad in the world." Though Harry is definitely tied for that position.

Dad rolled his eyes and chuckled, almost as if he knew exactly what I was thinking. I stopped outside the tent as planned, since it was such a long walk, we didn't play the wedding march until we reached the entrance. Lily, our flower girl, walked in first, making me smile. Thank goodness Molly had a camera. I saw James, our ring bearer, go next. Next was Ginny, then of course Mione followed by Nat. I felt stiff as a board as I realized it was our turn. "Hey hey hey, relax. Harry's waiting." Dad whispered, making me his furiously. We took careful steps inside as the march continued to play.

I noticed the Dursley's in the tent on Harry's side. I couldn't believe they came, but was glad they did. I feel like it was mostly Dudley's doing though..

Then I looked up. All the nerves that I had completely disappeared. I looked up at my soon to be husband, smiling a bigger smile than before. Harry returned it, eyes bright. "You look beautiful." He whispered, since Dad and I reached him. It was Grandma McGonagall officiating, so she looked to Dad.

"Who give this young woman to this young man?"

"Her mother and I." Daddy smiled, kissing my hand before placing it in Harry's. He winked at Harry, then walked to his seat. I took a deep breath, looking up into Harry's eyes as the ceremony began.

"Dearly Beloved, we are gathered here today to join this man, and this woman, in holy matrimony."
