Harry Potter marriage law

Reactions

Hermione's POV
The whole table was in shock because there was no way that Ginny Weasley could marry Draco Malfoy. As Ginny started to cry the table burst into noise. Fred and George were yelling that this was rubbish. Ron was screaming profanities along with occasional mutters of ferret. Harry was helping Ron along in his mission to invent a new swear word. Luna and I were trying to comfort Ginny by telling her that everything would be okay. "We won't let him hurt you Gin." All I could do was nod along to what Luna had said. She was right there was no way in hell that I would let Malfoy hurt her. I'd punched him once I'd do it again. As Molly came down from her sobbing. With some help from Percy and Arthur. She turned to Ron and said "Open yours Ron. We will figure all of this out but for now we need to know all the matches" Ron seemed reluctant to stop yelling but eventually decided that knowing who he'd be marrying must have been more important. He opened his letter and said in a emotionless voice "Lavender Brown. Not again!!." Even though me and Lavender hadn't had the best past I still felt that Ron's comment was rude. "Ronald she just spent weeks in recovery from the battle. She barely survived show some class!!" He just looked at me with a sheepish look. It was true Lavender had just barely survived an attack during the final battle. She had been in a coma for almost a full week. Now that everyone knew who they were paired with some of the table felt relived me, Luna, Fred, George, and Harry among them. We know that the people we are paired with, although not who we pictured marrying, are not a stranger or a ex Death Eater. Ginny was not so lucky.

Ginny's POV
I am dreaming. There is no way that this is real. Everyone around me is yelling, Luna and Hermione are trying to stop my crying but I can't hear anything it's like the worlds gone fuzzy. I know Ron opened his letter though I couldn't tell you who he got. After all of the tables letters have been opened I bolt up to my room. I know Hermione and Luna are following me but I don't wait for them. I sit on my bed no longer crying as they walk in I feel like I've run out of tears. He's going to try and kill me or keep me separated from my family. This just can't be happening. "Ginny he won't hurt you. We won't let him." When Hermione speaks I know she's telling the truth. If Malfoy did try and hurt me he would be dead. It wasn't just Luna and Hermione he would have to worry about either all my brothers would be furious. Tonks might just attempt to skin him, Remus would highly consider letting himself get to him on a full moon not that he would mind you. And on top of all of them there was my parents of course and Sirius who wouldn't surprise me by doing something crazy. Even with all of that to make me feel better I still just don't want to think about becoming Ginny Malfoy. So I say something that is sure to take my mind off of him. "Yeah I know. You guys are going to be my sister in laws."

Luna's POV
Ginny's words shock me and Hermione. We hadn't thought she would be calm enough to even remember anything but that she had to marry Malfoy. She must be trying to distract herself so I play along. "Yes. I never thought that would be the outcome of this day." Hermione nods along to what I'm saying clearly catching on to what I'm trying to do. "Me either Luna. When people used to tell me that I might marry a Weasley Fred is not who they were thinking." At Hermione's comment Ginny's laugh made me smile. We may not have chosen for this to happen, and Ginny my have a miserable marriage. But no matter what happens we will always have each other.

A/n Sorry for the short chapter school is killing me. Thanks to the people who have committed tho it means a lot.
