Him - A Harry Potter Love Story

Chapter Seventy

A/N So since this is the last real chapter (because there is an epilogue, of course), I made it longer than most...I want to thank each and every one of you for making this book happen!

I woke up on my wedding day more excited than I ever imagined. The ceremony was just going to be held at Harry and I's house, out in the backyard; it was perfect, with the huge grassy area. We had picked it for the kids, but it worked just as well for this.

Harry and I both had separate areas inside the house, so Harry wouldn't see me. I woke up and immediately ran to the bathroom to take a shower. Hermione, Ginny, and even Luna, who I had become close to ever since Malfoy Manor, had spent the night, so they would be getting me ready the moment they realized I was up.

Just as I imagined, the moment I stepped out of the bathroom in my robe, they all came at me, pulling me over to my bed where they had makeup and hair stuff. Because the bathroom was kind of small, they decided it would be easier in here, and they had chairs set up around where I sat.

"Hermione's doing your hair, Ginny is doing makeup, and I'm here to make sure the guys don't get in here," Luna said with a laugh. I smiled at her as Hermione took the towel from my hair and began drying it with a spell.

"Do you want it to be light?" Ginny asked, taking my regular makeup routine into consideration. I bit my lip.

"Just slightly more than I usually put on," I told her, and she nodded, getting foundation ready. There was a knock on the door as all of this began, and Luna ran to it, pressing her ear against the wood.

"Who is it?"

"Harry."

"Go away!" she shouted, leaning against the door despite the fact that it was locked.

"Hey, I want to say good morning to Cassie!" he whined. "I know she said I couldn't see her once she started getting ready, but there's no way she's getting ready right now. We still have four hours."

"Seven years, Harry? Really?" Hermione called to him with a scoff. "You should know that she gets ready unreasonably early."

"Oh, shut up," I said with a laugh, rolling my eyes.

"Can I please see her?" he asked.

"No!" the girls chorused, resulting in a frustrated groan, followed by footsteps. I giggled, making them all smile.

"Are you excited?" Hermione asked me, tugging at my now dry hair, as if wondering what to do with it.

"No, Hermione. I'm not excited."

"What?"

"I'm a sarcastic person, Hermione, of course I'm excited!" I chuckled. Although I couldn't see her, I was sure she was rolling her eyes.

"Yeah, yeah. Can I braid the side back and curl the rest?" she asked.

"That sounds perfect!" I told her. Ginny sat in front of me, waiting to start the makeup. She must have decided that it wouldn't be easy to do while Hermione did my hair.

About two hours later, everything was finished. I ran to the bathroom, looking in the mirror and gasped.

"Oh my god! Thank you!" I cried out, turning to them. I looked back at myself, the realization of what was happening suddenly hitting me. I was about to marry someone...my best friend, the love of my life...as soon as the girls saw the tears in my eyes, they let out exclamations.

"Don't you dare cry!" Luna warned, making me laugh.

"I refuse to redo your makeup if you do, Cassie!" Ginny snapped, a hint of a smile on her face.
