25. To Everything

One Month Later

Location: The Burrow

"Hi Mrs. Weasley, Mr. Weasley, Bill, Charlie" Hermione said as she hugged all of them "Gin- wait where's Ginny?" she said as she looked around.

"Hermione!" Ginny yelled as she raced downstairs.

"Ginny!" Hermione squealed as she hugged her girl best friend "I've got so much to tell you"

"I've got a lot to tell you too!"

"Then what are we doing!"

"I don't know!" Ginny said before she took Hermione's hand and went running outside "Hi Draco" Ginny said quickly as she passed.

"Um... hi" Draco said as he gave a pathetic wave as she was already out the door. He turned to the rest of the Weasley's who were all just there... looking at him. They seemed to be in the same position he was in, discomfort. They didn't know what to say nor do either. "Um, hello everyone" he said in the same manner, clearly not in his comfort zone. He inhaled and exhaled deeply through his nose.

"Oh no reason to be nervous dear" Mrs. Weasley said "Thank you for taking care of Hermione by the way. We really appreciate it"

"It was no problem" Draco said as he tried to relax.

Ron came downstairs followed with Harry "Morning everyone" they both said.

"Morning" everyone replied.

"Malfoy" Ron nodded.

"Hello" Harry said.

"Hi" Draco nodded to both of them as they sat down for breakfast.

"Would you like anything to eat Draco?" Molly asked.

"No thank you but um... now that you're all here I... I need to ask you all something..."

Everyone sat in the living room sipping on some tea. Some unfortunate few had to sit on the floor but nothing could put a damper on everyone's happiness.

Everything was perfectly perfect.

Voldemort had been defeated, the Weasley's had come back to an unharmed home, Death Eaters were being locked up, and muggles were safe from the magic world. Muggleborns needed not fear being tracked down, enslaved and killed. The world was happy once again.

The magical population in Britain was scarce. With muggleborns being killed, sent to hospitals in far off countries and Death Eaters sent to prison there weren't many people from the magical world currently occupying Britain. Those who had stayed in other countries were now beginning to return to the lives that they use to know. The world they use to love.

The magical world of England was being re-born...

For the better.

Now, back to the story...

Draco and Hermione were sitting together by the fire.

"Ahem" Draco said standing up and clearing his throat setting his cup of tea on the table.

"What is it Draco?" Hermione asked wondering what on earth he was doing.

"I have something I wanted to say" he took a deep breath as everyone except Ginny and Hermione smiled, as they were both clueless to what was going on. He turned to Hermione.

"Hermione" he began "You are, probably the best thing that has ever happened to me. You... you are wonderful, beautiful, and smart. You brought out the strength in me to do the impossible. You made my life matter, you made me want to live another day because I know that when I wake up I will see your face and I want your face to be the first thing I see when I wake up every morning..." he said as he reached into his pocket and went down on one knee.

"Oh my god" Hermione whispered in shock and set down her cup of tea on the floor as he took out a small black box and held it out in front of her.

"I love you Hermione, I love with all my heart. Will you marry me?" he said as he opened the box to a princess cut diamond.

"AHHHH!" Hermione yelled so loud Draco had to refrain from covering his ears.

"Is that yes?" Draco asked a bit worried.

"Yes! YES! A million times yes!" Hermione yelled as Draco hugged her and slipped the ring onto her finger.

"AHH!" Hermione yelled once again as she looked at the ring.

"Let me see" Ginny said as she went next to Hermione as she showed her the ring.

"Congratulations" Ginny said as she hugged her.

"Thanks"

"Congratulations 'Mione" Ron and Harry said.

"You're okay with it?" Hermione said as she looked up at them.

"Yeah, we may just be okay with it" Ron shrugged before he broke out into a smile.

"Toast" Mr. Weasley said as he brought out some wine.

"Yes, yes. A toast" Mrs. Weasley said as she handed out cups.

"To Draco and Hermione on their new engagement" Mr. Weasley said as he held up his glass.

"For Bill not turning into a werewolf" Ron joked.

"Oh zip it Ron" Charlie said as he gave him a light smack on the shoulder before he too raised his glass.

"That reminds me, I gotta owl Fleur" Bill said deep in thought.

Fleur had yet to return from Australia as she was helping her family pack up and move back to France before she had to come back to England to be with Bill.

"And for the war being over" Harry said.

"Why don't we just toast to everything!" Ron smiled.

"To everything!" Hermione smiled.

"To everything!" everybody else said before clicking their glasses together.

A/N: Yeah, cliché ending but whatever. Wait... hang on... NO! I did NOT mean it like that. THE STORY IS NOT OVER! It's not over until I say it's over and it ain't over!!!!

Any who :D Would you believe that I'm writing this story and when I wrote down Draco's 'Will you marry me part' I wanted to scream in happiness? I love happy stories where Draco proposes, don't you?

Only one more chapter :(
