So, we've settled on a small wedding. In the backyard, or some such. Maybe have people bring a variety of food to pick from? Frank thinks it's a good idea. I think we should at least provide the food. It is our wedding, after all. Well, I've already decided on what cake I want. So that's all there is to that. The rest of the food, I'm not going to make a fuss about. We can provide the main dish, some sort of meat, or fish! I like fish. And then if Frank still wants, we'll let other people bring the side dishes.
I just don't know how many people will come.
I've been thinking about this a lot. Who will I ask to be my maid of honour? or my other bridesmaids! It's so traditional. And yet.. I don't have really any close female friends. It's times like these I wish I had a sister. But the only one I have close to me is my mother. And Dorcas. I could ask her. I'm sure Kingsley will stand with Frank. We haven't really talked about it. But I just don't know.
Last week I had my last interview. Some gruff old man who told me I was much too sweet to be looking into a career as an auror. I told him that was my secret weapon. He seemed to like that, as he laughed a lot. And I made it through their tests, so I'm officially an auror-trainee now. I start on Monday. Friday I had to say goodbye to all my kids. They've got a new teacher now, though. Someone who has a much better reading voice than I, I'm sure of it. They'll love her.
I miss them already. I want kids.
I'm afraid of this wedding. I love Frank with all my heart, and want to spend the rest of my life with him! But.. What if I'm horrible at sex? We.. haven't. I don't know. After the first night, he won't want to be with me anymore. Because I'm sure I'll just be terrible at it. And I can't talk to anyone about this! They'll laugh at me. I know it. Or just be shocked that we haven't even... Will it hurt? And what if I'm not good enough? Or pretty enough? I'm not much to look at...
I need Frank.

Tell me you think I'm beautiful and that you want to see me naked. Don't ask, just do it.

I have so many things to do, and so very little time to do it in. I can't believe how rushed I am. Especially with my starting a new job on Monday! Things are going to be terribly hectic. This wedding is consuming my life. I've never hated flowers more. I'm sorry, Frank, but my mum keeps telling me how flowers have to be everywhere, and that I need to approve every single one, apparently. Next time she comes at me with books on flowers, I'm going to send her to you. And you can deal with it!
Apart from all that, I've got to go dress fitting on Wednesday. I've got one picked out that I like, but mum has to approve it. Even though she's seen all the pictures. She's got to see it on me. And then we've got to adjust it.
So much to do! I better get busy again.
