Author note: Super random one shot…even though I should be working on the next chapter of my other story…anyhoo, please enjoy!
I am tainting an angel, but is it a sin? I ask myself this as her body unravels beneath me. There is a faint glow as she allows me to peel the lace from her skin.
My hand pressed over her heart, and I could feel it racing. This heart, pumping in her chest, I let myself believe it was beating for me.
There was a spot just below her ear that held a small beauty spot. It was my favourite because it was hidden, and only my lips could find it.
"Hermione, why are you here?"
"Why are you asking?"
"Because I need to know, do you really want to be here?"
"Draco Malfoy," she said my name softly, but fiercely, and took my face in her hands, "you know damn well that I don't do anything I don't want to do. I am here because I love you."
"But how? You're so perfect, how can you love me? I'm just a monster."
"You are anything but a monster. The war is over Draco, stop punishing yourself."
"I'm not—"
"Draco, stop, you are. I can see it all of the time, whenever we go out, it's like you still want to hide. Honestly, nobody even blames you, why do you still blame yourself?"
"Because I was horrible to you. I witnessed awful things, things I should have tried to stop, but I didn't. How could I not still blame myself?"
"You were just a boy, a boy with no choice. Now understand this, I am here to stay."
At this I could only nod, nod and kiss her. Those lips, they gave me salvation. Her words gave me confidence. And her bare body gave me permission.
I slipped inside of her, watching her face as I did. I could never grow tired of the way her lips pulled up softly as I came full hilt.
This night, this was two years. It took me to years of this beautiful girl, two years to finally know, this is love. Tonight was the night.
We finished together, and I pulled away. Leaning over the side of the bed we shared, I pulled a small box out of my bedside drawer.
I stood up, went around the bed, and, still naked as the day I was born, knelt on one knee.
"Hermione Granger, you saved me in so many ways. My whole life was a mess until you cleaned me up, and deemed me worthy of your love. It's taken me two years to understand that you really are mine, just as I really am yours. So will you please do me the incredible honour of marrying me?"
She jumped from the bed and into my arms, knocking me to the floor.
"Of course I will Draco, or course!" There she was above me, smiling. This girl was mine, and she always would be.
I knew it may be wrong to taint an angel, but I think God would understand, right?
