4.- That We Have Get … What?

We got everything and more than we had planned,
more than the rivers that run the land.
We've got it all in our hands.
Now it's all for one and all for love.

All for love

Bryan Adams and Co.

- Harry!! - Hermione yelled.

- Coming!! - He answered.

Harry went to the bedroom where Hermione was standing in front of the Cute Mirror. This mirror was able to give you the image you want of yourself, It means you with other hair colour or make-up; other points of View.

The real Hermione was looking at a paper on her hands while the mirrored one was changing the colour on her lips that now where violet.

- What are you looking at 'Minnie? What is that paper?

Hermione eyes were wide opened and she was staring at Harry as she had seen a ghost.

- Take a look by yourself! - she said holding the piece of paper and giving it to him.

He smiled at her and looked the paper. He read it

- It's a marriage certificate. - He said

- Yes, I can read Mr. Potter - She said

- But It have to be a joke or a mistake. It's your name and mine. That's weird.

- Thank you for your words.

- I didn't meant that 'Minnie. - She went to the bathroom and he followed her. He stopped when she closed the door on his face. He started to knock on the door- Listen 'Minnie. I didn't mean it like that. I don't think that you and me would be weird but …

She opened the door and leaned on it.

- Go on. You are going better with every single word. - She said sarcastically.

- Ok. Let's eat something. Then maybe we can understand what is going on. Maybe if you listen to the messages on the WAM can get some clues. And McGonagall wants to talk with …

- What have you done?- She said looking at him suspiciously.

- No…thing 'Minnie. She wants to talk to the both of us.

- Ups. I haven't done anything. You have to be the guilty one here. Well I'm going to make the breakfast while you take a shower. You stink - she shrank her nose and then she smiled. - It's just a joke Harry.

She went to the kitchen to make the breakfast. She opened the coffee pot and the marvellous aroma of it inundated her lungs. She put some water to boil in order to make some of that coffee.

She opened another cupboard just to find a box of cookies. There were a lot of them. Some with chocolate, some with fruits, some integrals, some without sugar …

- Mothers - She thought.

She prepared also an English breakfast: toasts, scrambled eggs, marmalade… and some aspirins to clear their minds.

While she was waiting for Harry to finish his shower he started to read the Daily Prophet

- My Good Lord! - she yelled

- What's up darling - Harry said just arriving

- Look at this… No better: Let me read it to you Mr-it-have-to-be-a-joke

The Wedding of the Century

By Rita Skeeter

[On the top of the page was a photograph of Harry and Hermione at their Hogwarts graduation.]

Last night our Golden Man, the Boy who lived got married in the middle of the central circle of Stonehenge.

Harry James Potter is, for all of you that have been living in another world for the last 20 years, one of the most powerful wizard in our World. He has twice defeated The-One-That-Must-Not-Be-Named.

We talked to some of the guests of that Surprising Wedding.

- It's the most magical place in the world but Hogwarts, of course! - Said Mr. Neville Longbottom referring to Stonehenge. - Where can they get Married if not here?

Mr. Longbottom wasn't the only friend of them in that wonderful event. There was also Mr. Dumbledore and Mr. Draco Malfoy.

- My wife hadn't been able to come because our little daughter was sleeping and we couldn't find anyone to baby-sit her in that short period of time. - Said a proud Draco Malfoy who also was the best man of Mr. Potter. - She is going to kill me but I couldn't help coming; I'm the best man and I was willing to see it for the past ten years.

I remember you that Mr. Potter was the best man in the Malfoy's wedding and the godfather of her little Daughter, Vivian Narcissa Malfoy, which is only one year old.

Right now you would have been asking who she was. I'm going to tell you. She was no other than Miss Granger. The one and only Hermione Granger. She was going to marry Ron Weasley the last morning, but he ran away with Luna Lovegood, the manager directress of the Quibbler.

I, Rita Skeeter, have always said that Ronald Billius Weasley wasn't the right man for Hermione Jane Granger.

She was wearing a long white dress, it was so different to the one she was wearing to marry Mr. Weasley. Her cheeks were a little redder than usual. Her parents weren't there, surely they didn't wanted to wake them up.

Mr. Dumbledore gave the bride to the groom who was wearing dark clothes.

That was a very pretty ceremony full of symbolisms.

The priestess asked if they were doing that freely and both answered among giggles that they were.

They joined two pots of sand in one, symbolizing the union of souls and the life they are going to live as one.

They gave one another the "arras", a Spanish Costume. The "arras" is 13 coins that symbolized the rich and the properties that are going to be for the both of them. The groom gives it to the Bride symbolizing that his possessions are now hers too.

When finally the priestess asked if there was someone that can say something for not letting them get married no one raised a single hand.

- Better this way - Said the Bride with a killing gaze - Or I would manage to make a Silencio Charm without my wand. - Then she smiled to his soon-to-be husband and asked the priestess to continue with the wedding ceremony.

Everybody laugh at it till they saw the determination on her eyes.

- I know she can do things like that.-

Mr. Malfoy gave Mr. Potter the rings. The bride's band was welded with the engagement ring; the groom's one was a white golden band.

After that they were proclaimed Husband and Wife and the priestess gave him the permission for kiss her.

- I have been waiting for this all my life, 'Minnie - the Groom Said.

And then he kissed her; first softly and then hungrily until Mr. Malfoy patted his shoulder. The two of them interchanged some words and then the newly weds turned to the guests to be congratulated by them.

After all that they came to me and my photograph, Mr. Colin Creevey, to have some words with us. I managed to make them a short interview because they wanted to go home.

ü RS: - Can I see your Ring, Ms. Potter?

ü HG: - It will be Ms. Granger-Potter. And yes you can.

She showed it to me. As I have said it was It was a double ring. The engagement ring was united with the band. The first one was a solitaire on a white gold wand. The stone was a diamond in a heart form. The band was also a white golden one.

ü RS: - It's very beautiful one. How have you managed to have the ring and the dress in so little time, Mr. Potter. We know that it have gone very fast.

ü HP: - Well, the dress was the one my mother worn the day she married my father. I have had it at Gringotts. It's a very valuable one, as you can see it has some golden strings. The engagement ring was also from my family it has engraved the question: "would you marry me?" and when the bride puts it on her finger it writes the answer: "yes". The bands were bought by Mr. Dumbledore some time ago. Somehow he knew we where going to get married. They have also an anagram with our names in them.

ü RS: - Oh! That sounds very interesting. Why have you two acted so fast? I think that a lot of people would love to be here.

ü HG: - He asked it to me tonight and it sounded wonderful to my ears and we didn't want anyone to darken this day.

ü HP: - She said yes. And I couldn't wait one more second to make her my wife forever. - He said smiling. - Forever- he murmured touching his wife hands

I let them go home to be alone. They will have plenty of time to confront the rest of the Wizard Community.

We will publish some of the wedding photographs tomorrow because we have to make some nice composition. The Potters have answered affirmatively to our question to have an interview to them as newlyweds at their home. It will be as soon as possible.

Hermione looked at Harry.

- What do you say about that? - She said giving the newspaper to him- You can read it yourself in case you didn't believe me.

Harry was speechless.
