"It's lucky it's dark. I haven't blushed this much since Madam Pomfrey told me she liked my new earmuffs."

DumbledoreSorcerer's Stone, Chapter 1, Page 11

Chapter 5- Indecent proposal

A limo pulled up out side kings cross-station piping its horn so every one looked. Hermione and Draco got out; the driver loaded their trunks on a trolley and took it through the barrier. The parents got out next and escorted their children through the barrier.

Hermione spotted Harry, Ron and Ginny together. The Weasels were on holiday, Hermione remembered so it was just Gin and Ron going to be at the platform. Draco spotted Crabbed, Goyle, Zabini and Parkinson waiting for him.

Harry spotted Hermione and ran over to her, Ron and Ginny following. They hugged each other.

"Hermione, why are your parents with the Malfoys?" Ginny asked

"I'll tell you later, on the train" Hermione said. Moving away from Draco "Its long story, you get a compartment and after the heads meeting ill meet you and tell you" The trio walked off leaving Hermione with Draco.

"Well bye mum" Hermione hugged her mum "Bye dad" she hugged her dad "bye Lucius, Cissa"

"Bye mother, father" Draco said

"Bye, we will meet you at Hogsmede station on the 10th" Cissa said

"What, why?" Draco asked

"It being your birthday, were going to celebrate, Hermione is coming too."

"Oh and Hermione don't worry about the wedding, its all been arranged all you have to do is show up". Hermione and Draco walked away together. As soon as they were on the train they made their way to the heads compartment.

They had the meeting with their heads of house, Snape and McGonnogall and Dumbledore too. They all of course knew the situation between Hermione and Draco. After the meeting they both went their separate ways.

Hermione soon found her 3 friends. She opened the door, and went in

"Hi, guys" she said gloomily. They all greeted her

"So what was that about this morn?" Harry asked. Hermione saw that he was looking at Ginny and blushing

"First of all, Harry did you?" She asked

"He did" Ron answered

"And?" Hermione asked

"I said yes," Ginny said this time.

"So your a couple... Harry and Ginny sitting in a tree, k.i.s.s.i.n.g first c-" Hermione sang but was cut off

" 'Mione, stop its a silly muggle rhyme, what's your news?" Harry asked

"Well. This is going the be a shock. So before you all interrupt just let me finish telling you everything ok. Good. Well I was shopping in Diagon alley last week and I dumped in to Lucius Malfoy with Narcissa and Draco. They insisted, well not Draco of course to see my parents, so I took them to them. Lucius and Cissa looked happy to see them, and called them Charles and Elizabeth, when my parents are called Simon and Sandra. Well turns out my parents are both pureblood and my whole family has been since the creators of magic, my family is probably purer than the Malfoy's themselves, and my parents lived next door to Malfoy manor, in my new house Granger Mansion, and they were best friends. So was I and Draco until we was about 1 when all that stuff with Voldermort started, well my parents run away after been attacked by death eaters well I was raised a muggle and up to last week my parents never saw their best friends. Now we live next door to each other, my mum and Cissa are best friends and my dad and Lucius are best friends. But me and Draco are g-"

"Tell me your not best friends" Ron said looking worried; he was silently praying that they weren't.

"No, god no, Its worse. Were engaged. Its an arranged marriage, they arranged it when we was days old. Neither of us is happy about it at all." Hermione continued to tell them everything the whole way to school, answering their questions.

"So…. You're invited to the wedding, it's the 21st"

"21st, 21st, of this month?" Ron snapped

"Yes, well Draco's 18 on the 10th and I'm 18 on the 19th. 21st was the day Lucius and my parents decided that we would marry, its like set in stone, '21st September 1986 Luicus told he others that 18 years from now our children will be married' there's now way of getting out of it" She slumped back in her seat." if there was then it would be done, believe me I would move heaven and earth"

"What if you were to be married to someone else, if someone else asked you?" Ron said looking down at his hands in his lap

"No wont work" Hermione said not grasping what Ron was saying, neither did Harry and Ginny

"Hermione Anne Granger w-"

"Its Hermione Elizabeth Melody Granger." she interrupted

"Melody, that's nice" Ginny said, Hermione nodded

"Fine, Hermione Elizabeth Melody Granger will-" he was interrupted again by Harry

"Are you richer than Malfoy, having a Mansion, and him having a manor?" Harry asked, Hermione nodded "Well good, he cant throw the 'i'm the richest kid in school' card at Ron and Ginny anymore, because you are" Ron was getting irritated, no one was letting him finish what he was saying. So he just decided to spit it out.

"Marry me?" Ron asked. Harry and Ginny looked shocked.

"Oh Ron, its sweet but I can't, I just have to face facts Draco and me are to be married" She said as she stood and left the compartment and jumped off the train, they were at Hogsmede station. 'I'm going to be Hermione Malfoy as of next month' she thought bitterly. Before scowling and walking towards the carriages.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
