Please review - I'm appreciate your thoughts!

Severus was pleased at the speechless and shocked Hermione, he knew he'd done well. As much as he loved her, it was a rarity to see Hermione lost for words, so he waited and basked in the silence.

The appearance of the house elf seemed to snap her out of her daze as he took her cloak and ushered her to her seat at the table.

"Please sits Misses and Master, food will be here quick time." With a snap he was gone.

"Severus, this is too much. It's amazing but...wow. I never thought you were such a Casanova." Severus bent down and gave her a chaste kiss on the lips. He sat down at the other end of the table and began drinking his wine, never breaking eye contact with his darling Hermione.

"I am not a Casanova. I love only one woman. As for the effort, it is my way of showing you how much I adore and appreciate you, mind, body and soul. Happy Anniversary darling, I love you more than you will ever comprehend." He toasted her and winked.

"I love you so much Severus, who would have thought that we'd fall in love with one another after years of snarks, sneers and arguments. We really are an odd couple. I love being with you darling."

Cheeky boy! He is soo getting laid tonight. Hermione thought with a smirk.

I am sooo getting laid tonight. Severus thought simultaneously.But first, dinner and then...crack the big question. Merlin's sweaty nut sack I hope she says yes.

They both started off with chicken bites and barbeque sauce, each thinking garlic bread was not the best choice breath smelling-wise. Hermione then had Balmoral Chicken and Severus had the Salmon. Dessert was certainly interesting, Severus tucked into his Strawberry cheesecake with ease while Hermione leisurely licked the chocolate sauce from her chocolate fudge cake, accidently-on-purpose sucking off drips of chocolate from her fingers. Severus's pants were about to burst.

"Mione, keep doing that and I'll fuck you on the table right here." He managed to growl out while furiously trying to organise his trousers to sit comfortably around his bulge.

"Oh Russie, you say that like it's a bad thing...mmm it's so tasty..." She dipped her finger in the chocolate sauce and held it to Severus with an evil grin, "...would you like to..ssssuck it off Severus?"

"Morgana's tits Hermione! Cut it out, or at least wait until I've gotten this damn thing over and done with before you seduce me." He wasn't really annoyed with her, merely sexually frustrated with her teasing. He was determined to keep his eye on the ball and get the proposal out of the way before he jumped her.

"What thing over and done with?" She asked as she sucked the liquid from her fingers with vigour.

Severus stood up and walked around to her side of the table, he got down on one knee and pulled out a black velvet box.

Oh my gods, is he going to...oh my he is! Hermione's mind was going like the clappers, if she wasn't so mature she was sure she would have "squeeeeee'd"

"Hermione Jean Granger, I love you more than life itself. You are my reason for living, my happiness and my one true love. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want us to make a family together and to love one another until we're no longer on this earth. Although I know I will still love you, even in the next life. Will you take this great, greasy bat as your husband?"

Luckily for Severus Hermione didn't keep him waiting, seeing his discomfort in the first place, she tackled him to the ground and kissed him full on the mouth, tongues and all.

"Yes Severus. YES, YES, YES!" She was laughing like a giddy school girl and embraced him tightly as he manoeuvred the gorgeous sapphire ring on her finger.

"Well thank god for that! Now...how about you put on that Slytherin green nightie I love so much Mrs Snape?" Severus couldn't stop smiling, he was so happy.

"I will on this occasion but be warned just because I'm going to be your wife does not mean I am going to be some sex slave...because you're going to be mine." Hermione was going to give Severus the ride of his life, he'd deserved it.
