It was only a day away until Harry and Daphne were getting married. Part of her was actually excited because it was her wedding that she and her mother planned and that she had been waiting for since she was just a little girl. But the other part was still overly upset about being forced into the marriage. The good thing, however, is that Harry wasn't such a bad bloke. Not if he sent her ice cream and flowers as an apologly for whatever he was apologizing for. She didn't mind because that just meant he was able to come over and spend more time with her. That's kind of what they needed to do, spend time together. They had to get to know each other more and get used to being around each other.

As it was late and after work, Daphne was already out of her clothing and into her pajamas, shorts and an old long sleeve shirt she had stopped wearing due to wear and tear over the years. It was suitable enough for bed, and since that's all Daphne had on her agenda before Harry had owled her, thats what she was clothed in. The ice cream sat on her coffee table, the two spoons sitting next to it as she waited on her couch. She was sort of tired from the day she had had at work, once more trying to explain to her boss why Mr. McNanamey's portkey was missing. It wasn't her fault she couldn't concentrate on making them the other day. Her wedding was plaguing her mind.

Just as that thought once again entered her mind, a knock was heard at the door, surely enough to be Harry. Daphne smirked and stood, walking over to the door to unlock it and open it. "Took you long enough," she said playfully, opening it wider for him and stepping aside to let him in before she would close the door behind him.

"Oh no no no no! You don't keep secrets from your wife. She must know all or an affair will be assumed! Are you already having an affair, Harry? Is there another woman?" she joked, laughing as she rolled her head back slightly and stared at the ceiling.

"Do you think it will be weird to call me your wife when we're actually married? I mean, it's one word now, but tomorrow it'll be a completely different word." She looked over at him again, this time curious as she searched his eyes for an answer. "Ugh," she groaned, turning away and sitting up, rubbing her face gently with both hands. "This is still a lot."

Harry thought on her last question. He supposed it might be a bit awkward once they were married, but then again he doubted he'd really be thinking on it when he used the title. It was, after all, just a title. It could mean anything they wanted it to.

When she moved, it drew his attention back to her. "Hey, it's going to be fine, remember?" he responded, lightly. He couldn't say he wasn't nervous, but he could at least attempt to ease her nerves. "Besides, it'll really only be awkward if we make it awkward. It's all about what we want it to be. I know that sounds corny," he smiled lightly, "but it's prevented a freak out or two on my part."

It really was just a word, she supposed. It was a title she had wanted for so long, but probably under much different circumstances. Not that she was complaining anymore, she had a feeling her and Harry could be happy together in the long run and that's really what mattered in the end.

"It will be fine," she said, more to reassure herself than anyone else, really. She smiled slightly at what he said about the way it would turn out, being what they wanted it to be. "I want it to be so many things," she said softly, looking at him once more. "No matter who I'm marrying, I want it to be perfect. Or at least close to it."

Harry, for his part, hadn't thought about what he wanted from it. He hadn't allowed himself to focus on the big picture and more then likely wouldn't until the wedding was over. He didn't want to have any more nerves added to the already stressful situation, but it apparently meant something to her, which in turn made it mean something different for him.

"Wow...a little added pressure there," He teased lightly, hoping to ease some of the tension from their shoulders and the room, "but in all seriousness, I don't see why we can't at least attempt to make it perfect."

He wasn't sure what perfect was, but he was willing to give it a shot. What did he have to lose. The ministry had guaranteed that they were now in this together, why not see where it took them.

"Nah, no added pressure. You just have to show your pretty little face every now and again and it'll be good," she said with a laugh. Idly, she wondered if she should tell him that she finally went dress shopping. She didn't end up getting an ugly dress, but one that was actually rather flattering and almost like a dream for her. Hopefully he'd like it.

"Our wedding will be picture perfect. Mum made some pretty extravagant arrangements. We'll be married outside in the gardens and then the reception will be in our ballroom, with the new additions to the family invited to spend the weekend in the country if they so please. Father has scheduled all sorts of things, I'm just looking forward to the reception." Daphne laughed slightly. The second her and Harry got to dance, she was sure that would change a lot, but more importantly, there would be alcohol.

Harry smiled. "Well, I suppose I might be able to show my face every now and again, but I am flattered that you think it's pretty," he teased, "See you're closer to making me blush then you think."

Harry listened to her describe what she and her mother had arranged for their wedding. "A weekend in the country?" he asked, impressed. "Your parents didn't need to go all out, but that sounds really nice.

Harry wasn't much of a drinker, but he had a feeling he would be having his own fair share tomorrow. If nothing else, it would help him calm his nerves and perhaps it would allow her family to relax a bit and not hate him for breaking a line of Pureblood marriages.
