"I think he's going to propose to me at dinner tonight Hermione!" An excited Ginny Weasley stated as the two witches walked through the streets of Hogsmeade, clutching plenty of shopping bags in their hands.

"Are you sure Ginny?" The other witch replied, looking surprised at the statement. Ginny just nodded her head.

"Think about it Mione! He's taking me out to the most expensive restaurant in London on our 3 year anniversary, and he was hiding a jewelry box in his pocket! It has to be it!" She exclaimed while twirling around in circles, she may have been 23 but she was still as much of a girl as she use to be.

"But doesn't that ruin the excitement and surprise of the proposal if you know it's going to happen, Gin? I mean, we all know how terrible your acting skills are." But the younger girl did not listen, and Hermione just shook her head.

All of a sudden, the sky turned dark and fireworks appeared in the sky, halting all activity in Hogsmeade. Everyone looked around surprised. Ginny looked at Hermione with wide eyes, "What on earth is going on?" She wondered. And then she saw the smirk on Hermione's face, and realized that the older girl was looking behind her. She whipped her body around only to see her boyfriend of 3 years, Draco Malfoy, in front of her, with one knee to the ground. At the sight of him, Ginny dropped all of her shopping bags.

"Draco what are you do-" Ginny started, but at the raise of Draco's perfectly sculpted eyebrow, she stopped.

"Ginevra Weasley!" He exclaimed. By now there was a crowd of people surrounding them. "I love you. You mean the world to me, and even though you snore quite loudly at night! I want to spend every one of those nights with you until my last moment. Will you marry me?"

Ginny looked at him, eyes wide open. "But I thought… dinner… but… that's not…" she spluttered incoherently.

"Uh.. Ginevra?"

"YES!" She said at last, and the crowd cheered, and then started dispersing as the couple embraced each other and kissed.

"I thought you were going to ask me at dinner tonight." Ginny said as she swatted at Draco's chest.

"Yes, well that WAS the plan. However, an engagement should come on a young girl as a surprise, pleasant or unpleasant as the case may be, and you Ginerva, you are terrible at acting.

The End! What What! And under 500 words. =]
