How To Ask Before Summary: A little explainer, sort of by Harry how to go about this just right. Hhr all the way.

Takeing a deep breath Harry gazed down at the black bow in his hand. Inside set a delacit silver ring with a nice sized dimond set in the center. It had taken him nearly four months to find the ring, the perfect ring. Looking back up his eyes fell on a photo of him and Hermione. It had been taken only weeks before when they had went to a dinner and show, someone had been walking around with a camera, telling people it was only five pounds a photo. Harry nad been iffy on the idea of a Muggle photo when the wizard ones were so much more intriguing. But Hermione had talked him into it and it was framed, on the mantle at Godric▓s Hollow. With a sigh he looked to his watch, it was six-thirty-eight pm and he had to pick up Hermione at six-fifty for they▓re date, as she thought it was. She didn▓t know hat he had planned on proposing to her. He had reservations at a very large fancy resturant. Then he planned on takeing her for a walk on the beach, under the moon light, only the sounds of waves beyond they▓re own. It would be the perfect way to propose to her. He smiled as he stood placing the box in his pocket as he made his way to the door.

When he made it to Hermione▓s door he felt like he wanted to run, turn tail and make an excuse for him not being able to take her. But before his mind could sort through his thoughts his hand had already knocked on the door. Wincing, he pulled his hand back quickly before he prepared to turn, but before he could make his feet move the door opened and there was Hermione. A smile instently aperred on her face when her eyes fell on Harry, ⌠I▓ll be ready in a moment, come on in.■ she greeted.
As Harry stepped inside she claimed his mouth with hers in a quick kiss, before she took off back up her stairs. Harry closed to door behind himself and stepped further into her living room. The walls were nearly covered with framed photos of them and friends from they▓re years at Hogwarts. The sound of her feet on the stairs pulled him from his thoughts and he turned to see her. She looked beautiful, her hair was pulled up, leaving some to brush her neck, her make-up was light and her little black dress left nearly nothing to the imagination. ⌠Wow!■ he breathed. She smiled and twirled to give him the full effect. He grinned as he approached her, ⌠Are you ready to go madam?■ he asked properly. ⌠As ready as I can be.■ she said as she picked up her clutch bag. With that they were off to the resterant.
