Elle strides into the shop, prepared to burst into bright greetings when she finds her friend. Instead the sight of Hermione leaves her lifting a hand to her mouth, surprisingly moved. "Oh, my god," she sighs, fanning herself. "Oh, Hermione..." It's just so pretty and she's so pretty, all in white lace. Before the hair and makeup, she still looks radiant in front of that mirror, and Elle finds herself overcome.
She used to think about all this for herself, so sure that her own wedding day wasn't far away. Now, well, she and Emmett haven't talked about it, but she thinks they both know she wants to finish law school first. She's in no hurry now, knowing he's right for her. Maybe she was only ever trying to keep Warner tied to herself, rushing along like that, and that should have been a warning. It wasn't like this, like Hermione and her Ron, loving each other so long, finally walking the aisle to make official a bond that seems to have existed for years already. That's how love should be, she thinks. That's what she wants.
"You look so beautiful. Oh, everything is so pretty."
