Chapter 20 Engaged

About eigth months later Hermione and Draco were still together. Draco had got the hang of using the white cane and he had learn to read braille plus no one cared as much that he had been released. He had, also, become very good friends with Harry and Ron. Hermione was in high spirits and was happy working as part of the acciedental magic reversal squad. The two were living together and were very happy.

The two were currently enjoying each others company as the sat together on the couch, reading. They often did this after Hermione got home from work and need some time to get away. Tonight was different though it was the same silence as it always had been but Draco was not as relaxed as he usaually was.

"Hermione?" He said finally as he closed his book.

"What is it Draco?" Hermione said as she looked up from within the depths of her book.

"There's something I've been meaning to ask you for the last week." Draco looked really nervous.

"What?" Hermione said a little confused.

"Hermione I owe you a lot. You gave me a second chance when no one would. You were my friend when I was alone. I got back my high spirits from you when I was down. Hermione you have encouraged me to do many things I never would have done these last months." Draco was looking at Hermione, lovingly.

"What are you saying?" Hermione hoped he was going to say what she thought he was.

"Hermione Jane Granger," Draco began as he got down on one knee and open a little box showing a beautiful gold ring with a large diamond surrounded by rubies and emeralds. "Will you marry me?"

Hermione felt the most happiness she ever had in her life. "Yes, I'll marry you, Draco!" Hermione said as he slipped the ring onto her fingure.

"Hermione, I love you!" He said as he hugged her tightly to him.

"I love you, Draco!" Hermione said with a smile. "Now if you excuse me I have to go show this to Ginny, she be so jealous."

"Tell every one! When do you want to be married?" Draco said as he stood up.

"How about in two weeks!" Hermione said excitedly.

"Anything you want." Draco said as Hermione disapparaited to Ginny's house.

Hermione was bangging on the front door until Ginny answered.

"Hermione, what are you doing here?" Ginny said as she let Hermione in and closed the door.

"What do you think?" Hermione said as she showed Ginny the ring.

"Oh my God, it's beautiful! Did Draco propose?"

"Yes. We're getting married in two weeks. I want you to be my maid of honor."

"In two weeks?" Ginny said a littled surprised. "That's not very much time."

"I know but I've been waiting for this for a long time. I'll be lucky to make it through two weeks." Hermione said with a laugh.
