"I'll take a Firewhiskey, thank you. Maybe it'll make the purple less... well less anything."

Rico just shook his head, still smiling. Well, one thing could be said for this wedding...he sure got a lot of laughs out of it!

"Oh good, beverage time," he muttered. "Yeah, I'll have a firewhiskey, please." Oooh, but she ordered tea. Not good. Not his favorite beverage.

Then again, he was in England now. Whaddya expect?

Cambell watched as the waitress brought them there drinks. "Thank you!" She replied, taking her drink from the lady.
Cambell took a quick sip of her tea and made a weird face at it. Nope... didnt taste right. Cambell grabbed the sugar in the middle of the table and put some inside. "You know, England just doesnt know how to make sweet tea. Thats why I just order regular tea and do it myself! They think sweet tea is a pinch of sugar!" Cambell said shaking her head in dissapointment.

" Well then this dance is my priveledge." He said with a smiled as he lead her towards the dance crowd. He took her hand in his left and let his right hand rest against her waist.

When the other two stood up to dance, Lizeth realized she was alone again. She stood, and walked back to the bar. She grabbed a firewhiskey this time and then walked over closer to the entrance and stood there, leaning against the wall.

Cassie smiled as she followed him on the dance floor then turned back to him. "I like this." She said as she felt his hand on her waist and she felt something, a jolt maybe?

While waiting for Jacob,Miley saw her sister dancing with James.Oooo,this WAS war.She gave a little evil smile just waiting for Cassie to see her.

The Best Wo-Man of the wedding walked towards the reception hall, in desperate need of drinks. She hadn't had anything to drink since -- lunchtime. Because then there were the wedding preperations and the fitting and then the wedding itself. She was so glad it was over and that she didn't loose her job by the end of it.

Phew.

Bella reached the drinks table in the reception hall and bit her lips as she decided which one to choose. Sighing, she grabbed a glass of water. The other drinks can wait -- she needed to be hydrated first.

Now that she was here, all she had to do was go looking for her date. Where was Ewan?

Edie laughed. "Alright then. 3 Firewhiskeys and 1 Gillywater coming up." she got up out of her seat and walked up to the bar. Turning to the waiter, she said, "3 Firewhiskeys and 1 Gillywater please." When she was given the drinks she said, "Thank you," and walked back to the table. She placed the drinks on the table and said, "Here you are ladies. Take your drink." She sat down in her seat and took her Firewhiskey and took a drink. It sizzled as it went down her throat but it made her feel better. And the purple didn't seem so aggrevating.

Daintily crossing her ankles, she continued chatting with Warren. "Quidditch? You didn't happen to play, did you? Me Dad used to take me all the time when I was little," she said, recalling how much she detested standing out in the cold and rain. The sport never really interested her very much.

She looked around, her eyes falling on the happy couple. "Do you know them?" she querried, head turned towards the Minister and his wife. "I've never actually spoken with him." She felt a bit like she was crashing the party, despite having been permitted to attend through the blanket invitation.

She watched as Warren looked at the female Auror. "Are you two together?" she asked, seeing how the two looked at each other. She politely sipped her water, taking a break from the wine. She continued to look around at the growing crowd. It was a great occasion to meet people from all different departments.

There was really nothing special about the wedding. Ewan had expected more. It was the Minister's wedding and noting exciting- it was heart breaking really.

He was playing with the fork- his half eaten cake lying there as he watched people danced and pretend they were enjoying the reception- well they were surely pretending, right? Or maybe he really didn't had the spirit of enjoying a wedding. Ewan had been sitting on one of the vacant seats for a while now. . .

He had given up the hope for looking for Bella- it had been a while since he saw her. She surely was being busy. He didn't blame her- it was just her job. He shrugged absently to himself at the thought. But just as the shrug to himslef had been clearly a sign that he wouldn't go look for her- he had looked up- and there she was.

A grin instantly lit up his face- there she was. And the half eaten cake was left forgotten as Ewan got up and made his way upto her. She looked devine ofcourse- the perfect black dress, the bun- and the sandles. Another grin. With one of his hand in his pocket- Ewan tapped her shoulder lightly with his other hand. "May I have the pleasure for this long awaited dance, Miss Brown?"

"Thank you, Edie.' Star took a drink of her Firewhiskey and savored the taste. "Hmm, thats good. Is it me or do you all think the Purple looks a little better now." Star smiled at the rest of the ladies.

Jake walked into the reception hall, and winced as the explosion of purple hit him. "If my future wife ever decides to have a themed wedding like this ...." Jake thought to himself, "I don't know if we'll ever make it to the alter." he shuddered.

He walked further into the room and was not suprised to see the the entire ministry had been invited. "Nothing like making a statement of who's in charge..." Jake said shaking his head. He usually didn't mind weddings, but this one was making him a bit grumpy.

"Hmmm... I wonder if that woman I met back at security was ever able to escape and join us?" Jake wondered to himself trying to cheer himself up and give himself something to look forward to at an what he felt was an otherwise lack luster reception." He looked around hopeful he'd see her and sweep her off to the dance floor for at least one of the two dances she had promised him.

"May I have the pleasure for this long awaited dance, Miss Brown?"

Bella was glancing in the other direction when she felt a tap on her bare shoulders. She shivered and then she heard his voice. She smiled. Think of the devil. Giggling at her own thoughts, Bella turned around to face Ewan. He was wearing the tux she had picked out for him and as she had told him, he looked dashing. "Of course." She said, setting her glass back on the table, she smiled at him. "Let's go." She slid her arm around his and waited for him to lead her to the dance floor.

The seating area had finally cleared out, and Clarissa was able to move into the main reception area where the bride and groom no doubt were at that moment.

Stepping into the room, she surveyed it with slight interest. It was very, very obvious that Clara loved the color purple. She had to admit that it was a pretty color, but too much of any thing sometimes isn't a good thing...

Her gaze swept the room, resting momentarily on the bride and groom, then on the cake, and then to the rest of the guests. She wondered if Jake were here...

Moving through the crowd, she tossed smiles of greeting towards a few of the guests. It had been a nice ceremony and no doubt would be a nice reception, but perhaps it would be a great one if she could only....

She smiled. There he was.

Walking up behind him carefully, she raised one hand and tapped his shoulder. "You seem a little lost." She commented. "Looking for someone?"

Edie laughed. The Firewhiskey was really making her feel better. "It sure does. Not as annoying."

Jake felt a tap on the shoulder and practically jumped. Trying to play it cool, he just smiled. "Me lost? Never? Overwhelmed.... perhaps," he laughed. "This is whole wedding has been a bit, ummm...how shall I say...over the top. But they do look happy don't they?"

"Speaking of happy," Jake smirked, "What a pleasant surprise to find you here. I didn't think they'd ever let you escape that security line back there. Do they know you're missing, or do I have to hide you?" Jake asked playfully.

Clarissa grinned. "They do look very happy." She agreed, glancing towards the couple. "The ceremony was quite beautiful, but yes, I think that it is a bit overwhelming. You do have to understand that it's the biggest wedding of the century, though." She pointed out with a laugh.

"Ah..." She looked behind her as though checking for any lurking security members. "I'm still on duty, just...scoping out the crowd." She smiled. "Or at least that's what my excuse will be if someone questions me."

"The biggest wedding of the century.... yes, I do seem to have heard something about that. Just in passing of course. I mean, this whole thing has been kept so low key." Jake laughed.

His smile faded a bit when he heard, she was still on duty. "Well I guess I can't wisk you away from here then? I was hoping to go somewhere a bit quieter so we could actually talk and hear each other," Jake grinned, "But I guess the crowd can help us to blend in a bit better, hopefully we'll be able to disappear among them and spend some more time together. That is, if you want to of course. I'm not one to twist your arm or anything. You're more than welcome to continue on, scoping out the crowds if you'd like. I know you're a very busy witch." Jake nodded cooly.

The thought of that made Jake realize if she did that, he might not be able to find her again, he didn't even know her first name! He did all he could to keep from gasping. Jake calmly regained his composure. "You know, I just realized... you know my name, but I don't think I ever caught yours." Jake said looking in at her with a sly sort of smile.

Cassie continued to smile at James, but when her gaze went over her shoulder, the smile faded. She looked at her Miley, was that an evil smile on her twin's face? She then vividly remembered talking to her in the atrium, didn't they talk about a guy she likes, what was his name? She looked back at James, oh man that was right, her sister liked James as well, but, so did she, ohh what would happen to their sister relationship when he choose her or Miles?

"I like drawing landscapes mostly. But I'm terrible at doing portraits!" Dora replied.

"So do you have any of your drawings with you? I'd love to see some." she asked.

Then Dora looked at the newly wedded couple for a few moments. She wondered how much longer is the wedding going to last because she felt a bit tired.

James twirled cassie as they dance and pulled her back towards him before he noticed her expression. " areyou okay?" he asked.

Samantha stood in shock as her employee, J.J., told her he was leaving the wedding because he was leaving to help the students at the former Hogwarts school. She shook her head in astonishment, didn't he know that the Ministry had decided to close the school because it was an unsafe environment for the children?

Well, it wasn't her problem, she was here to enjoy herself. Today was a day of celebration, after all!

Cassie smiled as James twirled her but when he pulled her back she saw a glimspe of Miley again and the smile faded. "I'm fine, I'm happy that I'm here dancing with you." She said, forcing the smile to return to her face and trying to ignore the looks from her sister.

" you sure?" he asked as they continued to dance closely together.
