Dark Phoenix (A Draco Malfoy fanfic)

Chapter XVII

8 Months Later...

Tomorrow is the day. My big day. It is finally here, I just wanted it to go well with no hassle but it was Draco and I so drama and trouble was going to follow us no matter what. Hermione, Ginny and Andrea have planned to take me out to a bar in central London. I was left a note saying that I have to be ready by 7pm sharp waiting outside on the driveway.
It's 7pm and I'm waiting on the driveway and out of nowhere a massive limo pulls up, a head pops out of the sunroof, it's Andrea.

"Get in bitch we're going out!!"
She shouts so loud you could hear her for miles.

I hop in and I'm immediately handed a glass with champagne and a box of chocolate strawberries. We arrive at a bar and we start to lose it in drink we are drowning in them. In the corner of my eye I see Ginny stumbling towards the bathroom being followed by someone. I'm the most sober because I don't want to be hungover for my own wedding, so I begin walking to the bathroom. I see Ginny lying on the floor passed out due to the amount of alcohol and I sit with her trying to wake her, until the door creaked, I turn and immediately see a man, muggle probably holding a metal bar.

Tapping it in his hand, I stand moving Ginny over out of the way slightly. He swings the bar towards me, I duck trying to avoid the bar. I grab the bar stopping it, he's yanking it trying to take it away from me, succeeding. He comes close enough for me to punch him, busting his nose open blood all over his nose, he falls backwards not by much though. He swings the bar towards me, dropping it.
He leans down trying to grab it but I kick him in the stomach before he could snatch it. He falls to the floor, repeatedly kicking him. I slide the bar to the other side of the bathroom by the far bottom stalls, I grab Ginny walking her through, telling Hermione and Andrea what happened we exit the bar heading to the hotel which we are staying at. We arrive at the hotel getting Ginny to the room, we place her on the bed to sleep.

I head to the bathroom running the shower washing my hair. Using my signature apple and freesia shampoo, freshly shaved legs. I walk out of the bathroom seeing Andrea and Hermione already asleep. I turn my head facing the door to see a note slowly be pushed under the door. I lean down picking it up, it read "Meet me at the bridge near the waterfall at midnight. DM x" I got ready throwing on a jumper and leggings, putting my hair in a high pony tail. I walk to the bridge seeing no one there. I wait, suddenly hands cover my eyes. "Guess who?" They said. I instantly knew who it was cold hands, metallic silver rings, smelling of a very familiar cologne and voice. I pull the hands down off my face turning, it was Draco.

"Hi."
I say smiling at him giving him a quick kiss.

"I just wanted to see you one last time as Miss. Hughes and not Mrs. Malfoy."
He said smiling kissing my forehead.

You could hear the music from the foyer of the hotel playing. Draco pulled me in slowly swaying side to side, I rest my head on his chest as he gripped my waist pulling me closer to him. We stood there dancing for what felt like forever, it was so romantic.

"Right best be off now. You need to be ready for tomorrow Princess."

He said but I was drifting off. He picked me up still dozing and carried me to my room. He placed me on my bed still dozing, falling into a deeper sleep. He kissed my head.

"See you in the morning, Princess."
He said so quietly and left the room.

It's here, I woke up early getting ready, Andrea was curling my hair, Ginny was pouring champagne for Andrea, Hermione and I not one for herself, not after last night's passing out and Hermione was already outside adding finishing touches to the seating arrangements, while I was doing a doing a nude smokey eye, still bold but not colourful like usual.

"Right, I think it's time you get into your dress!" Andrea said squealing with excitement.

I went to the bathroom sliding into my dress it's slim fitted bodice with a mermaid skirt at the bottom and black veil making a statement because we are either going big or we are going home. I walked out of the bathroom, and the girls looked at me in awe and I started tearing up.

"No, no don't start. You've just finished your make-up and we don't have time to fix it."
Ginny said jokingly.

We all started laughing. There was a knock on the door, Andrea answered in case it was Draco, it was Isabell.

"Isabell, hi it lovely to see you. You look amazing." Andrea said.

"It's lovely to see you to Andrea and you Ginny. You look stunning darling." Isabell said to me. "Girls can we have a minute please."
Isabell asked politely.

"Yeah sure."
Ginny said and her and Andrea walked out.
