Chapter 7
Over the next few weeks Hermione and Draco spent quality time together, mainly in his room, and spent time with Narcissa also.
She loved seeing her son so in love with a loving woman like Hermione, who Cissa was beginning to fall in love with too. Christmas had been excellent. Narcissa had warmly accepted Harry and Ginny at her table; they both liked Cissa and enjoyed Draco's company as well. They haddent heard directly from Ron, but he had been in touch with his brothers and they had told her when they spent Christmas day night together. Hermione really couldn't care less about Ron, she hated him and never wanted to see him again. Draco and Cissa supported her and were glad she didn't want to see him.
When she went to collect her things from her house Cissa and Draco had gone for support, but luckily Ron wasn't in and she managed to get all of her things without him being there, she just wished she could have seen his face when he came back to see everything but the kitchen sink gone. She had shrunk everything down and it all fitted in a small shoebox, under Draco's bed. She kept her usual things out in hers and Draco's room, but things like the bed, fridge and sofa was in the little box. Cissa had been watching her son and Hermione, it did her good to see that the light she was told at the end of the dark- Voldermort-reining tunnel was here and that she was living it.
Cissa's greatest dream came true one day Late January. Hermione was at work, Draco knew that Ron wouldn't come to the hospital, especially a highly secure hospital so he and Hermione decided to go back to work. It was Friday and Draco's half day, he came home around 3pm to find Narcissa alone in her study.
"Mum, can i ask you something" He asked as he approached her
"Sure Draco what is it?"
"I was wondering, if you would let me ask Hermione to marry me, please"
"No need to ask, of course you can, congratulations" she stood and hugged Draco as best she could against his tall form and her little frame.
"Mum, she hasn't said yes yet, haven't asked her yet"
"She will sat yes honey, ive seen the way you are together, she loves you just as much as you love her, of course she will say yes"
"There another thing i wanted to ask you"
"Yes"
"Have you got that old ring, the one with the pale pink diamond in the middle of a golden band"
"I have it hear, its very special to me" she pulled out the ring and handed it to Draco "Here you have it"
"Thank you so much, Hermione will love it."
"Yes, she will. Only wish i could have had that ring. My grandmother gave it to me, she chose me out of my 4 elder sisters, she said that i was the one she saw wearing the ring on my wedding day. But i never did, i was secretly promised to Lucius and he said that rings like that wasn't acceptable, made him look too much like he cared, he told me when i asked him to give it to me on our wedding day. He told me to throw it away, but i saved it for my daughter to have it when she got married. But as you know i never had a daughter so when you were five i had this ring for when you would meet the love of your life and want to marry her, and let me tell you after meeting Hermione i couldn't ever imagine you bringing home another girl. Draco she's perfect for you"
"That's a lovely story Cissa" Hermione's voice came from the door. Draco and Cissa looked to see Hermione at the door.
"What are you doing home so early honey" Draco asked
"Finished early"
"How long have you been there" Cissa asked
"I know i shouldn't have been eavesdropping but, i got here about a second after Draco" Hermione told them
"Heard the whole thing" Draco asked
"Yes" she squeaked
"Mya, will you be my wife, live with me for the rest of our lives, have my children and love me till we die" Draco walked over to her and got down on one knee "Hermione Elizabeth Granger, i love you so much and after everything we have been through i would do it all over again just for you to be my wife, will you marry me Hermione"
"Yes" Draco put the ring on her finger and picked her up and spun her around, Cissa congratulated them and left them alone.
"I love you so much Draco"
"I love you too Mya"
