"Why do you love me?" Chapter 12

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter!

Draco Malfoy woke on the day of the Slytherin/Gryffindor scrimmage in a happy mood. He couldn't believe his luck so far. He had written to his father, and surprising his father had agreed with his decision. Even Lee Jordan had agreed to help him out. Draco pulled on a t-shirt and jeans, took a look in the mirror to check his hair, then set out for the Great Hall. Several Slytherin students wished him luck and passed on their words of advice as he walked to his seat between Terrence and Goyle. He glanced over at the Gryffindor table for Cho. He had tried apologizing to her over the last couple weeks, but she was doing a good job of ignoring him. He really didn't understand why she was so mad. I mean it was only house points. He spotted her talking to Oliver Wood. He had come back to Hogwarts that year to help teach flying and quidditch. Draco had found out that Oliver told Cho he had had feelings for her since he was at Hogwarts. Draco clenched his fists as he glared at them.

He remembered the night he had overheard Cho and Hermione talking about Oliver. "Cha cha, he's so cute and sweet. You should have heard how he was talking about you other night." Hermione said.

"Hm, yeah he was a great flying teacher and a good friend when he was here, but I don't like him anymore than that" I have Draco and I could really care less about any other guy. I mean maybe if I wasn't with Draco I would consider being with Wood, but that's not the case right now" Cho had said back.

Well Draco was glad she didn't care for other men, but the fact that she had said "If I wasn't with Draco, then maybe" and not to mention she was pissed at him didn't ease him up at all.

Cho suddenly look at him and gave him this "What do you want" look. Draco decided to have fun with it. He smiled then blew her a kiss. Cho's mouth dropped open. She stood up very quickly but Angelina had come up behind her to yell at her for not being ready yet. Draco smirked. He watched as Angelina lectured Cho about responsibility and so on. {A/n ok so Cho is a chaser on the Gryffindor team, I know that would never happen but its my story!! Lol } When she was done talking she walked off and motioned for Cho to follow. Cho shot one last evil glare at Draco before hurrying out the Hall.

~The Quidditch pitch~

Draco was pacing back and forth in the locker rooms waiting for the game to start. Flint had already done his lecture before the game so the team was just chilling until the game was ready to begin. "What's wrong with you Malfoy?" Flint asked.

Draco apparently didn't hear because he just kept on walking back and forth. "DRACO!" Flint yelled.

Draco jumped and looked at Flint "Huh? Oh sorry Flint, just kinda nervous"

"Nervous? You've never been nervous before" Flint said, looking curiously at Draco.

Just then they heard Lee Jordan's voice boom out. "Welcome to the Slytherin/Gryffindor scrimmage!" There were screams and clapping that followed.

"Well we had better line up" Flint said motioning at the team. The big doors opened on either side of the field and both teams walked out to the center. Madame Hooch was there with the box of balls. They listened as Madame Hooch briefly stated the rules and penalties of the game. Just as they were finished Draco turned to look at Lee Jordan who in return nodded back. "I have a special request from a friend of mine, so I ask that you would all briefly be quiet for a moment" Lee said into the microphone. The students in the stands started whispering and looking around. "I said be quiet!" yelled Lee. Everyone immediately hushed. Draco looked at Cho. She had that perplexed look on her face. He laughed silently she looked so cute.

Draco started to walk over to Cho. As soon as she noticed he was coming towards her, her eyes widened. "What do you think you're doing", she hissed. Draco just smiled. He took a deep breath then knelt down. Cho was to busy glaring at him she didn't notice what he had just done. "Cho" Draco said.

"What" she replied in an annoyed tone. "You are embarrassing me!" she hissed again.

"Cho, I am really sorry, I didn't think you would take it as hard as you did. I love you and I would never do anything intentionally to hurt you. I thought you knew that. You're the only thing that makes me happy, and from this point on I want to be happy always." Draco said.

Cho just stood there looking at the ground. Draco grabbed hold on one of Cho's hands and looked up at her. "Cho will you marry me?"

Cho's eyes met with his. He had such a sincere look in his face. She looked back down at the ground on the verge of tears.

Draco skirmmed. He was becoming nervous of her answer. "Cho please look at me pleaded."

She looked up. She had tears in her eyes but smiled. "Yes" she replied choking back tears.

Draco stood up quickly and embraced her. The stands broke out in cheers and clapping. They pulled apart and Draco slipped the ring on her finger then re-buckled her quidditch arm guard. He put both his hands on her face and brought her closer. Their lips briefly touched before Cho stepped back. She smiled. "We still have a game Mr. Malfoy" Cho said.

"Oh, right I forgot about that. We'll have to finish that kiss later then Mrs. Malfoy" Draco added with a smirk.

"If you think proposing to me is going to win you the game, you're wrong." Cho said.

"Hm, we'll have to see about that" he yelled as they both kicked off and soared upward.
