Chapter six – Harry's Party part 2

Hermione Apparated to Harry's front door. 

Ron, who was bout to ring the door bell, let out a very girlish sound of fright, behind him stood the twins and Ginny laughing.

"Hullo Ron."

"Shut up Ginny! Hey 'mione. So, how has your summer been?"

"Wonderful."

"That's great! So I guess you and Malfoy have been getting a long. Harry told me, I'm ok with it but malfoy?"

"Oh for a moment there I thought you had actually learned something in your divination class."

"Nah! That old fake couldn't tell the diff between tarot cards and a crystal ball." He said with a laugh.

"haha."

They were all laughing when Sirius opened the door.

"Hello, boys, mione, gin."

"Hello." They said in unison.

"Well come on in."

"You have a lovely house sir."

"Ah. It just the ministry's way of say sorry and don't sue. Haha. Why don't you guys and girls going to the living room."

"Hermione!" Harry stood in the hall.

"Hi Harry how are you?"

"Fine. So Hermione just a few seconds ago a gold eagle owl few in to the house and dropped this in my lap. You mind explaining to me what it is?" Harry held up a pruple card.

Hermione swallowed, closed her eyes and held out her left hand.

"We're engaged."

"Holy shit, look at that hunk of rock!" Harry said a look of sheer disbelief graced his face.

Hermione looked around and saw that all their friends from Gryffindor stareing at either her or the ring.

"Oh my GOD! Hermione who are you engaged to?" Said Lavendar who had missed the earlier conversation.

"Draco Malfoy." Harry answered for Hermione.

"What!" was shouted by everyone including Sirius who had just walked into the room, arms loaded with pop bottles.

"It true." Hermione said with a small smile.

"Well, I'm hungry." Said Ron hopping to change the subject. He caught sight of the table loaded with food and rubbed his hands together in glee.

"Your always hungry I don't know how your mother keeps you fed all the time." Said Parvati.

The whole room laughed but the twins and Ginny laughed the loudest.

A group of Gryffindor girls pulled Hermione always from Harry and Ron and demanded details.

"Ok Herm, dish."

"Yah come one."

"Why malfoy?"

"Yah we would of thought you'd have been with Ron."

"Ron is like a brother to me."

"Hermione why did you have to choose Malfoy?"

"I love him. He's really not that bad really! You just have to get to know him."

"When is the wedding?"

"August 28."

"So soon?"

"Yes. I wanted a summer wedding and I didn't want to wait another year."

"Yah sure. And we all know you didn't want to wait for."

The girls were practically rounding on the floor laughing.

The guys eyed the girl with confused looks.

"Can you guys believe her I mean come on Malfoy?"

"I always thought they hated each other."

The guy's ears were hit with a burst of giggles.

"Yah I know, Maybe it was all a cover and they were just waiting for Malfoy's dad to do something that would put them together?"

The guys all stared Thomas.

"What?" He said with a shrug.

"You sound like silly romantic girl!"

"Sorry my sister has been watching soap operas ever since we got home from school."

"Well any way I don't think so Hermione's not that great of an actress."

Now it was the guy's turn to burst out laughing.

"I thought she and Krum were together?"

"No their just good friends."

"Would of thought she'd be with you or Ron."

"No she like a sister." Answered Harry

"Yah." Ron agreed

As it got later people started to leave and the house was slowly getting less packed.

"Harry I should be getting home. I left Draco in the hands of my mother and father. Talk to you later ok? See you Ron."

"Bye 'mione."

"Bye Herm."

Hermione gave each friend a hug.

"Thanks for being so understanding. I expect both of you and your families at the wedding."

"Would miss it."

"Me neither."

At that she Apparated.

Hermione arrived in her room the only light on was the lamp on Draco's side of the bed.

He lay asleep, his book laying open on his chest. Hermione quietly walked to her dresser took out a night gown and went to the bathroom.

She changed then went to bed she kissed Draco on the cheek and turned out the lamp then curled up next to him.
