Chapter 6
Hermione didn't know what to say. He was down on his knee. Her hand in his, the ring box in his free hand. This was the moment she had been waiting for her entire life. She felt the butterflies in her stomach.
'Hermione Granger, I promise to love you for as long as I live, so would you do me the extraordinary honor of marrying me?'
'yes' she said quietly, barely a whisper. They both took a moment to soak in what had just occurred then Draco stood, pulled Hermione up and she leaped into his arms. He set her down and slipped the ring onto her finger. Then she heard knocking on the door and lavenders whining voice.
'Herm, would you let us in please. It's the Halloween ball tonight, since it's our last one we want to look good.'
'Ok, give me a minute.'
She gave Draco one look and he gently kissed her good bye, called his broom and flew out the window. She reached for her wand and said 'aloe hamora' and the door shot open.
'What were you doing Hermione?' lavender asked, raising an eyebrow.
'I was meditating and didn't want to be disturbed.' She said calmly. 'Excuse me lavender, I have to go and find Ginny.'
It took all her self-control to stop her running down the halls and jumping for joy, eventually she found Ron, Harry and Ginny sitting in the courtyard.
'Ginny, may I speak with you, alone.' Hermione asked, not wanting to have to face Ron's rage.
Without saying a word, Ginny stood and walked towards Hermione.
'What is it?' Ginny asked.
All Hermione did was raise her left hand and Ginny saw the ring.
'OH MY GOSH!' Ginny exclaimed.
'Please keep your voice down. Yes he proposed but you are the only other one to know. He said he will tell Ron himself so that I don't end up hurt again.'
'Sorry, I understand. You have to keep me posted on EVERYTHING. And make sure to invite me and harry to your wedding!'
And with that she walked off back to where Ron and Harry were standing. Hermione waved good bye and they waved back. She felt like she was walking on air, as she wondered back to get ready for that nights ball.
A/N: sorry its short but I should post another chapter tonight.
