Harry Potter The Kiss

Emma Granger heard the laughter coming from the bedroom and tried to quell her unease, she knew nothing inappropriate was taking place, as Harry was totally devoted to Hermione. Maybe if Hermione had loads of friends over to stay, with the occasional boy in the picture Emma could have had time to build up to this.

But no, her daughter went from lonely young girl to this beautiful, confident woman overnight and married to a man who makes her so happy she glows, literally! Emma hoped that after Saturday, seeing Hermione walk down the aisle, say the words and wear the ring, her analytical mind might accept this completely.

Back in the bedroom Hermione snuggled into her husband, her fears forgotten in the arms of the man she'd spend the rest of her life with. Her thoughts drifted to what the day held in store for them, 'Harry if we can split some of the meetings between us we should get them finished easily by Thursday, leaving Friday to relax and get ready for our wedding.'

She could feel the concern coming over the bond, 'what's the matter?'

Harry knew he was caught so just had to confess, 'there were some wizards in that room I wouldn't want you anywhere near, I almost challenged a few for the way they were ogling my beautiful wife. I know you can take care of yourself but I just cant help the way I feel, I'm pretty sure I'll be even more protective when you're pregnant.'

He was prepared for the backlash, what he was not prepared for was the tender kiss that Hermione used to express her feelings of love, it took his breath away in more ways than the obvious.

Hermione had started to get upset with Harry until she heard the word 'pregnant'. The thought of having Harry's baby filled her with so much emotion she simply had to share it with her husband.

Ginny emerged dressed and, seeing the couple were otherwise engaged, slipped quietly out the room in search of breakfast.

Dan and Emma were already at the table as Ginny sat while her breakfast appeared in front of her.

"Guys, you know Hermione would murder me if I sat and ate this without you!"

Dobby and Winky popped into the room and joined them for breakfast.

"So what was the reason behind this morning's bout of laughter?" asked a smiling Dan.

"Poor Harry was being teased, growing up with the Dursleys left him unsure how to react when shown affection because he basically never got any practice. Hermione is the best thing that ever happened to him. There just so good together." said a smiling Ginny who found Emma's arm round her giving a one armed hug.

Dan asked, "what have we got on the agenda for today? I'll be finished by one so we could try out some dance moves on the youngsters tonight, I understand Neville will be joining us?"

Ginny's smile increased a few watt's, "oh that would be great! Those two have a pretty full day again, Harry's collecting Neville to get robes measured for Saturday, he could come here for lunch and help while they have more meetings to deal with."

Dan had a slight frown, "I thought this was a non-magical wedding, why are they wearing robes?"

Ginny laughed, "Sirius and Remus got measured yesterday, the robes look just a tuxedo though more comfortable to wear. I think Harry was going to ask if you wanted measured as well."

Emma thought that was a great idea, "keep all the wedding party dressed the same style and Neville can help with the invitations."

The day was planned as the bride and groom entered looking exceedingly happy with life.

Narcissa had spent another sleepless night, although this one was much more pleasant, while she pondered the opportunities presented to her by the young couple. Each had its merits and would be rewarding but she'd eventually made her choice. The lack of sleep was brought about by an emotion she hadn't felt for many, many year's -excitement!
