Calm

Short and fluffy because it's what I felt like today

The storm was brewing. She could feel it in her bones. The waves of the bay were calm for now, but it wouldn't be long before they were lapping at the shore and working to destroy whatever was in their wake. She sipped her cup of warm tea and watched the horizon. If he were still here they would gather a blanket and watch the horizon together as the clouds rolled in over the bay.

Her mobile buzzed in her pocket. She smiled at the number visible on the screen. "I was just thinking about you," she said into the device.

"And what were you thinking Granger?"

She huffed. "Are you ever going to stop calling me Granger?"

"Maybe one day."

"There's a storm brewing. I wish you were here to watch it with me Draco."

"Me too love. Have you checked the mail today?"

"Nope, not expecting anything."

He snorted. "I have something in the works that I had sent to yours. Could you check for me please?"

She sighed. "Only because it is not raining will I check the mail."

She strolled slowly through the house and opened the front door to a grinning Draco Malfoy. "Had you moved any slower the rain would have started Granger," he said slipping his mobile back into his pocket.

She smiled softly at him. "I wish you would stop calling me Granger," she said pulling him to her for a gentle kiss and hug.

When she leaned back from him she was presented with a beautiful pearl ring surrounded by sapphires. "Draco?"

"I'll stop calling you Granger when you become a Malfoy," he said with a smirk.

"Cheeky bastard," she said before kissing him again.

"Is that a yes? I couldn't tell."

"Yes, you prat!"
