I have not abandoned this! Life's just been a lil crazy lately. I just graduated college and I'm moving out of state next week so I've just a few other things to concentrate on ;)
This one wasn't prompted but it popped into my head. Short and simple.
Set post-war.
Severus swung his coat off and heard a soft thud.
He had dropped something.
"No!" Hermione gasped.
Severus looked down to see what had caused such a reaction out of her.
A small velvet box. Bollocks, he thought. She wasn't meant to see that yet.
Wait. No?
"No?" he asked, confused. He was certain that she would say yes.
"Don't do that here!" she exclaimed.
"I wasn't going to, it just fell out of my pocket!"
"Well, put it away before someone sees!"
"The one person I was worried about seeing it has already seen it, so what does it matter?"
"I don't want everyone to make a big deal," she said. There were too many people there who would ruin this moment for them.
"You're my goddamn soulmate, Hermione. It shouldn't be too much of a shock."
"Wow. The proposal every girl dreams of."
"I'm not proposing to you, now am I?" he challenged.
"Just put it away," she said and kissed him quickly before joining the others at the table.
"What just happened?" he whispered to himself.
