I own nothing. I'm almost all the way recovered! Except for the whole every time I move I think my side is going to rip open. Yes, it hurts. Enough talking from me! Enjoy!! I'll try to update again today or tomorrow!

"What are you thinking about Draco?" Astoria said after Hermione left.

"Nothing," I said shaking my head.

"Please don't lie to me Draco," she said placing a hand on my cheek and making me look at her, "You don't need to lie to me."

"I'm not lying," I said sighing, "I just don't know what to tell you yet."

"Tell me what you're feeling," she said softly.

"Can we talk somewhere else?" I asked looking over at Harry and Luna.

"Sure," she said standing up, "Draco and I are going to bed. We'll see you tomorrow."

"Goodnight," Luna said waving at us.

Astoria grabbed my hand and walked down to the dungeons. I kept thinking about how I was going to tell her what was going on. Everything in this relationship was amazing for me, but things kept coming up.

"Now tell me what's wrong," Astoria said pushing me in the Slytherin Common Room.

"I was just thinking," I said sitting on the couch.

"About what?" she asked softly.

"Astoria," I said sighing.

"No Draco," she said cocking herself to the side, "Tell me what you were thinking. Please."

"I was thinking of marriage," I said standing up, "Harry told me that I was going to ask you soon because of how much we love each other. It was freaking me out a little because we keep saying we're going to go slow, but then we throw that out the window. Astoria, I want to be with you in every since of the word."

"Draco," she said shocked, "You want to marry me?"

"Yeah," I said shrugging.

"Draco," she said kissing me softly, "I love you so much."

"I'm confused," I said pulling away.

"Draco, I know what you mean about waiting," she said running a hand through my hair, "And I know waiting is supposed to help us, but I want to marry you."

"Astoria," I said kissing her.

Astoria and I kissed for awhile before she pulled away fully. She rested her head on my shoulder and shut her eyes. I let out a sigh and kissed her forehead calmly. I had to wait for Astoria to say something else.

"Draco," Astoria said softly, "Whenever you are ready to ask me to marry you I'm ready to say yes. I want to marry you as much as you want to marry me. Just remember that things come when they come. Don't push things to happen."

"I can't help it," I said in an equally soft voice, "I'm used to be in control of everything."

"You can't control everything," she said kissing me gently, "Things will happen when they're supposed to."

"They aren't going fast enough," I said sadly, "I want you."

"You have me," she said straddling my waist, "There is nothing that would make me leave you. Now, enough of this conversation."

"You're right," I said wrapping my arms around her neck and pulling her down for a kiss.

"I should go to sleep," she said pulling away again, "Goodnight Draco."

"Goodnight," I said kissing her once more.

"I love you," she said biting her lip.

"I love you too," I said calmly, "Night."

"See you tomorrow," she said turning to leave.

"Wait," I said grabbing her arm, "How will I know when to ask you to marry me?"

"You'll know," she said laughing, "Just wait."

I let out another sigh as she left completely and went over to the corner I usually sat in. I pulled out a book and tried to read. Thoughts of Astoria where running in my head too much for me to think of anything else.

Standing up I threw the book on the ground and walked out of the Slytherin Common Room. I don't think Astoria understood how hard it was for me not to be in control of something.

"Hello Draco," Luna said walking up to me with Jerome, "Are you alright?"

"Yeah," I said nodding, "I was just thinking. I thought you and Jerome were going to sleep."

"Jerome had to use the rest room," she said smiling, "Would you like to tell me what's wrong?"

"I'm not in control," I said softly.

"Oh," she said calmly, "Yes, I remember how you acted during school. You do hold control very high, don't you?"

"Yeah," I said running a hand through my hair, "And now with Astoria I have no control over when things are going to happen."

"And why don't you have any control?" she asked curiously.

"Because I keep making things go to quickly," I said angrily, "I want to ask Astoria to marry me and I want to have kids with her. We've barely gotten together though. If I don't slow things down I think Astoria might leave."

"Did you tell her this?" she asked picking Jerome up.

"I told her I wanted to ask her to marry me, but that it was too soon," I said shrugging, "She told me that I should wait and that things will happen when they happen."

"Maybe the time is right now," she said stopping in front of the Ravenclaw Common Room, "Or maybe I'm wrong. Goodnight Draco. Say goodnight to Draco, Jerome."

"Night," Jerome said waving at me with a yawn.

"Goodnight," I said smiling, "Thank you Luna."

"You're welcome," Luna said turning away.

I smiled as Luna and Jerome walked into the Common Room. With a sigh I turned back and started to walk back to the Slytherin Common Room. Luna was right. Maybe right now was the right time.

When I got to the Common Room I walked in and grabbed the book off the floor and started to read again. Now that I had my head on right I just had to wait a little while longer for things to happen.

I knew that I was going to fall asleep again and not be out for breakfast, but I needed to be alone for a while longer before I could face anyone else. Things were going to go right as long as I could keep things on the right track.
