In this chapter there's a song, which is called you and me by lifehouse. And I had to change some of the lyrics otherwise I would have been calling Draco a girl lol. Well anyway enjoy this chapter and please review. Thank you to the people who review after every chapter like roxiepluto and other people. Thanks!
"Harry?" I ask looking up at him as he dashes around the house.
"Can't stop. Late for work." He mutters quickly and grabbing a piece of toast.
"You have loads of time, just relax." I say smiling.
"Cant" Harry began. "Got to get to work."
And with that I hear the door shut.
"Have a good day at work." I call in the empty flat and getting up. " I know I bloody will."
"Sorry I'm late." I gasp getting my breath back.
"Harry you're half an hour early." Hermione said smirking. "And have you ran?"
"I thought I was late." I panted.
"No." She said smiling.
"Great just bloody great." I mumble slumping into my chair.
"What's wrong?" She asked sitting on my desk and crossing her legs.
"Draco's suspicious of me already. And all because of me bloody proposing." I mumble burying my head in my arms that are resting on my desk.
"You still haven't proposed?" She asked.
"Do I look like a have?" I mumble sarcastically.
"What have you tried?" She asks, I look up and cock an eyebrow. "Maybe I could help?"
"I've tried spaghetti, a t-shirt, writing on a mirror, a tattoo, and a DVD." I mumble into my desk.
"And none of them have worked?" she asks.
"No, one of them worked I just chose not to give him the ring then." I snap resulting a slap around the head.
"I'm trying to help?" She snaps. "Why don't you try a song?"
"A song? Herm I can't sing." I mutter.
"Yes you can why else would I have brought you a guitar?" She says smiling.
"You brought me a guitar?" I begin and she glares. "I mean oh yeah you brought me a guitar."
"All you need to do is write a song about how you feel and them propose." She says smiling. "In fact. Why don't you sing in Seamus's bar tonight? And then while you're there we'll invite Draco over there."
I sit up and stare for a while until I start smiling.
"That just might work." I say smiling.
"Ok I'll phone Seamus and square it with him and you work on that song." She says smiling.
I sit in the office all day working on my song. Until I hear a familiar voice.
"Need any help?"
"You're an artist Dean not a song writer." I mumble chewing on my quill.
"I'm still an artist. And I'm romantic." He says grinning. I look up and half hearted scowl.
"Are you saying I'm not romantic?" I say.
"No, no not at all." He rambles.
"Because if you are I'll give you the task of trying to propose to your partner." I snap.
"Harry, I'm already married." He says chuckling and holding up his hand.
"Oh, well you try proposing to Draco." I mutter.
"I'd rather stick with Seamus. Your playing at the pot of gold tonight aren't you?" he asks smiling.
"Seamus's club? Yeah I am." I say smiling.
"Well good luck." He says before apparating.
"I feel stupid." I mumble pulling at my shirt nervously.
"Why?" Seamus asks from behind the bar.
"I'm singing a song I've only written today in front of almost one hundred people and the main person I want to sing it to isn't here yet." I mumble.
"Don't worry, he'll be here. Hermione's taking care of everything." Seamus says smiling.
"Great I feel reassured." I mumble sarcastically.
"Well you know what she's like. She'll be here. Just stop worrying." Seamus said smiling. I turn and see him polishing the cocktail mixer and suddenly catch a glimpse of his wedding ring.
"Whys everyone married but me?" I ask myself.
"What was that mate?" Seamus asks grinning.
"Everyone's married. Apart from me. How did you propose to Dean?" I ask.
"I didn't, Dean proposed to me." Seamus said smiling.
"How did he?" I ask
"He gave me a painting. Which had a portrait of himself with a piece of paper in his hands saying marry me?" Seamus said smiling. "If you want a slushy proposal, get an artist to propose to you."
"Oi I heard that!" Dean teases coming up behind Seamus and wrapping his arms around his waist. Dean smiled at Seamus and then looked at me.
"Hi Harry. You all set?" He asks.
"Just about." I mumble.
"I think there ready now." Seamus says smiling. "Good luck."
"Ok this is a song for someone who's not here yet. But when he does arrive he'll understand." I mumble sitting down and putting the guitar in place. "Ok this songs called you and me."
And as I take a deep breath begin strumming the guitar and then I suddenly sing and the lyrics flow of my tongue
What day is it
and in what month
this clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up
and I can't back down
I've been losing so much time
I smile as people start get up to stand near the stage. Some people embracing there partner and sway with the music
cause it's you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to lose
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you
all of the things that I want to say
just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping inwards
you got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here
As I start the chorus I realise people are singing along. People are singing to my song.
Cause it's you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to prove
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you
I scan the club trying to find Draco, but he's not here, as I look around I catch a glimpse of Sirius and Remus who raise their glasses and smile. I scan the club again and find Blaise and Evan. Everyone's here but the person I need!
There's something about you now
I can't quite figure out
everything he does is beautiful
everything he does is right
you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to lose
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you
you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to prove
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you
what day is it
and in what month
this clock never seemed so alive
I end the song and realise Draco isn't here. I look around and see Seamus who just shrugs and gives a sympathetic smile.
As I get of the stage I see Hermione running towards me. A determined expression on her face.
"Took your time." I mumble.
"I'm so sorry Harry the car broke down. And then we got lost." Hermione says frantically.
"You could have apparated?" I say almost angrily.
"I'm sorry." She says hysterically.
"Its done now. I'm going home." I mumble. Going past her and out the exit.
"Something I miss?" Draco asks coming up behind me.
"Nothing much." I mumble taking his hand. "Nothing at all."
Thank you for the reviews keep sending them and I'll keep writing! Thank you.
