Elaine's POV:

"Wow!" Jason said from behind Draco as I walked towards them. I noticed Hermione had shot a glare at Jason as I stood next to her, but I didn't think anything of it. He didn't seem to notice Hermione's glares either as he continued to stare and smile at me. "Are we all ready?" a man carrying a huge camera asked us.

The photographer probably took over a thousand pictures of us, but luckily it wasn't going to take long. I was starting to get nervous as we walked throughout the castle to take pictures.

"You okay, love?" Draco asked when he noticed how anxious I was getting. "Fine...just getting a bit nervous," I replied. "Don't worry Elaine I'll be there the whole time!" a voice said as Draco's arm wrapped around my waist. I turned and saw it was Fred. He was walking through every portrait on the wall to catch up with us and make sure he didn't miss a moment. "Oh I know Freddie," I replied, laughing as Draco laughed with me.

Even though there weren't going to be a lot of people attending the wedding, it was still quite nerve-wracking....I mean today was my wedding day how could I not be nervous?

When the photographer was done taking pictures of us, we all hung out near the front door of the castle as we watched the guests start to arrive. Of course, my parents and the Weasleys were the first. Then came Draco's mom, Brandy, and a few of his cousins who weren't shunning him from the family (the fact that he was marrying me really upset most of his relatives).  

Ron and Harry had come up to the castle to hang out with us as well, which helped calm my nerves.

As we waited, Jason called me over. "Can we talk in private? It'll only be a minute," he asked, already leading me down a separate corridor. Once Jason and I were out of earshot of everyone else, he stopped and looked at me.

"What's up Jay?" I asked, smiling at him. I thought maybe he was going to give me a pep talk or something since it was such a big day...but I was wrong.

"Are you really gonna marry him?" he asked, making me extremely confused. "What?" I asked, trying to guess what he was about to say. "Are you really going to marry him?" he asked again, looking frustrated. "Of course I am...why? Jay what's wrong?" I asked, taking his hand. "Come on Elaine...don't play dumb here...you know exactly what's going on," he said, ripping his hand away from mine.

I could see he was getting very angry with me...but I didn't know why. When I didn't say anything, he looked at me long and hard. "I have been in love with you since we were ten years old...from the minute I fucking met you I knew you were it," he said, now raising his voice. "Jay what are you talk-" I started, but he cut me off. "Do you know how many fights I've gotten into over you? How many people I heard talking shit about you that I beat the crap out of? I have been there for you way longer than any of these other freaks have...and yes, Elaine, they're freaks!" Jason screamed as I watched him. "This fucking magic crap is bullshit!" he yelled, making me start to cry. "Jason," was the only word I could manage to say. "And...and the second we were gonna be able to leave that orphanage...we were gonna live together...and we were gonna get married and, even though it might not have been the best circumstances...it would've been all worth it because it was gonna be me and you together in the end...how it was meant to be, but you ruined it," he said, looking absolutely defeated.

"Jason...please...stop...what am I supposed to say to that? I'm getting married in fifteen minutes!" I yelled back and pleaded, but I knew he already made up his mind. He looked at me with such anger and I knew how badly he was hurting. "You know I can't stay and watch you get married...you've known I loved you since we were kids and you really expect me to stay and watch you marry someone else?" he said, now yelling again.
