Draco sat there for a moment, in stunned silence. He kept looking back and forth, to Harry then to Hermione, mouth slightly open. The duo just looked back at Draco, amused smiles plastered all over their faces.

"You.." Started Draco. Seeing the usually calm Draco flounder around his words, was truely the site to see. "How do you know? Are you not mad? We were so careful!"

Harry finally lost it, lhe let out a burst of laughter, Hermione soon following.

After the laughter subsided, Harry wiped his eyes and looked at Draco.

"One question at a time Draco."

Draco slightly scowled at Harry, but moved forward.

"How did you guys know?"

"We saw you two having dinner at the cafe in Diago Alley. Just seeing you two at the table together, it was obvious you were more than friends."

"You're not angry, Harry? I mean you dated Ginny for a while, are you ok with this?"

Harry smiled and took Hermiones hand. "I'm more than fine with it Draco. Honestly, Ginnys a great girl and all, but shes more like a sister than anything. Lets be honest Draco, my hearts always belong to another." He brushed Hermiones hand with his thumb and the two shared a bright smile.

"So," began Hermione. "You want to propose? Why so sudden Draco?"

Draco scratched his head. "Well, like I said, I've never felt like this before. I've never loved someone as much as I love her. Though we've only been together for a short time, I know that shes the one I want to spend the rest of my life with. I love her."

Harry understood completely. Sure, his situation was different, but he felt the same exact way.

"What do you need help with Draco?" Hermione questioned. She and Ginny had remained good friends over the years, so she was more than ready to help.

"Thank you so much Hermione! I just need help with a few things really. I have it pretty much planned out, Its just you know Ginny better than anyone else I know."

Harry sat back as Draco and Hermione went about planning his proposal. It was quite odd to him. He and his bestfriend, well girlfriend now, were helping his former enemy, now turned best friend, propose to his ex girlfriend, turned sister? Harry chuckled to himself. Life really was full of surprises.

~Flashback~

Harry and Hermione were sitting in their compartment on the Hogwarts express. Very few of their classmates had returned to Hogwarts for their last year, most of them being guaranteed the jobs they wanted allready, based on the loss of minisrty workers during the war.

It was quite different from the pass years. The talk on the train was mroe light hearted then ever, the younger students actually looked excited to start another year of Hogwarts.

Harry nad Hermione were deep in coversation, talking about their summer vacations and plans for their last year of schooling at Hogwarts. They were brought from their talk by a knock at the door. The door slipped open and the smile on Harrys face instantly dropped.

"Potter, Granger." Said the blonde haired boy. The look on his face was more gentle than normal, but from pass experiences, Harry knew to make nothing of this.

"Malfoy." He spat, expecting the boy to insult he or Hermione.

"I uhh," Draco stammered, this was going to be harder than he thought. "I just wanted to say hi and to thank Harry for what he did. I'll see you guys around." With that, he swiftly made his way out of the compartment.

Harry and Hermione sat their in shock. In all the years they had known Draco Malfo, that was the first time he had ever been pleasent to either of them.

"What just happened?" Questioned Harry. He looked at Hermione, who was only shaking her head in disbelief.

"I have no Idea.. If I didn't know better, I'd think the twins made their way on the Hogwarts Express, just to mess with us."

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

It had been a few days since the new year had started at Hogwarts. Harry and Hermione were heading to the dungeons for their first potions class of the year. Normally Harry would be dreading coming face to face with Professor Snape, but after everything that had happened, he was beggining to think of the man in a different light.

As they walked into the classroom, they were greeted by a smirking professor.

"Afternoon Ms. Granger, Harry."

That was another huge schock. Harry knew that he and Snape had managed to form a neutral stand between the two, but he never expected to be polite in any sense.

The class went on pretty uneventfuly, until Snape paired them off for their daily assignment.

"Ms. Greengrass will be with Mr. Zabini, Ms. Weasley will be with Ms. Granger and lastly Mr. Potter will be with Mr. Malfoy. Instruction are on the board, you may begin.

Harry moved over to the table where Draco was setting up, somewhat reluctantly.

He sat down as the two began to work on their potion. They worked in silence, until Draco adressed Harry.

"Harry?" He asked, his name coming out more nervous than he would of liked. "I know it probably won't mean much, I know I was pretty horrible to you over the years, but I'm sorry for what I've done to you and Hermione. I blindly followed the ideals of Voldemort, based off of my fathers beliefs. I understand if you never forgive me, but I truly regret the decisions I made so far in my life. I'll spend the rest of my life making up for them, raising my future kids in hopes they never take the path that I took."

Harry was stunned silent. Draco Malfoy appologizing for the wrong things hes done? He never once thought that that would ever happen. His brain was moving as fast as it could, trying to process what had just happened, but alas, it couldn't.

The two worked in silence for the rest of class, managing to finish their potion as the class ended.

Harry made his way out of the class,Hermione eventually catching up with him.

"Everything okay Harry?"

Harry shook his head, letting out a sigh. "I don't really know."

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

It had been two weeks since Draco had appologized to him in potions class. He had told Hermione what happened, and like him, she was stunned into silence. As much as Harry wanted to hate him and never forgive him, he honestly felt bad for Draco. He had met Lucius Malfoy on multiple occasions, so he knew how one sided the mans ideals were. Being brought up in a certain way, its hard to know any better.

Harry nad Hermione made their way into the library. They had an essay to finish for McGonagall, so they headed to Hermiones usual table, sat down and began working. After about an hour, they were brought from their work by a slight cough.

"Uhh," Started Draco, scratching his head. "Mind if I join you?"

Harry looked at Hermione. She had been shocked at first, but unlike Harry, she was quickly coming to terms that it was possible for Draco malfoy to change. She shrugged and went back to her work.

"Sure." Harry said, not taking his eye off of Draco.

Draco nodded his thanks and sat down.

The three worked for a bit, until Harry spoke up.

"Draco," He started "Why such a change of heart? I mean, I'm thankful that you appologized, especially to Hermione, but why?"

Draco sighed, he knew this was coming, he had been thinking about it constantly over the first few weeks.

"Like I said. I was brought up to think like my father. Simply put, thinking for yourself was not something my father wanted me nor my mother to do. After he died, she explained to me how disappointed she was with how I was raised. I love my mother, deeply, and I would do anything to make her proud of me. I understand that the things I have done were wrong, so now I'm doing my best to better them. If I would of been kinder during our first few years, you, Hermione and I, could of been amazing friends. To think I ruined so many friendships over the year based on my father, it sickens me."

Harry pondered this for a bit. He looked over at Hermione, who had taken his hand in hers. She mouthed "give him a chance" and Harry understood.

"Well Draco. The fact that you even want to change is saying more than most of the pureblooded wizards in this world. I don't know if we'll ever be good friends, but I'm more than willing to give you a chance."

Draco smiled, and nodded his appreciation.

The three returned to work, light conversation remaining constant amoungst their table. In just a few minutes of talking to him, Draco learned more about Harry then he had in the past seven years.

~End Flashback~

Harrys thoughtd finally returned to his surroundings. He looked around to see Hermione and Draco on the floor, deep in discussion.

Harry chuckled to himself. In true Hermione fashion, she had took out parchment and a quill, and was quickly jotting down a list of ideas.

After a while, their talk subsided and Hermione once again made her way into Harrys arm.

"So," Harry started. "How did you and Ginny get together anyways?"

Draco smiled. This was one story he loved telling.

"Well, thats quite an interesting story."
