Savanna Holcombe:

I'm reading a book i'm our dorm, trying to relax after having done school for a couple weeks. I think the questions are finally dying down about how i'm alive. My mother did a really good job and keeping me a secret for two years.

Draco is out in the library going to get me another book for when I finish this one. He's been gone for a while, probably a little too long. I think I should go check on him soon. He's always gone for longer than he's supposed to be, it makes me worry sometimes about what he's doing or who he might be with.

I'm really tired though, it's been a long day and it's dark outside and the room is dim and i'm laying in bed. The only thing keeping me awake is the fact that Draco isn't in this bed with me.

I pull the covers off of me and head over to the wardrobe to throw on some more comfortable clothes. I get my tie off as soon as I hear the door open.

I sigh. "Draco you need to stop with that, what takes you so long?"

I turn to face him and he has his arm behind his back. "I'm sorry, but can you put this on?"

He holds his arm out and he's holding a white babydoll dress. This is when I notice that he's also dressed up. A completely different outfit from when I saw him leave the room. He has on a white button up shirt, with a couple buttons undone at the top. I always liked when he had some undone, because I like seeing his chest. He also has grey pants on.

I tilt my head to the side. "Why are you dressed so nice?"

"Date night." He smiles.

"Wait, did we plan something and I forgot?"

He shakes his head. "No, I planned this on my own. Now put this on."

He throws the dress at me, and I head to the bathroom to put it on. I don't want Draco seeing me naked again until our wedding night. I know he's seen me naked plenty of times, but I want our wedding night to be extra special, that's why i'm making him wait.

Once the dress is on, I come out of the bathroom and Draco smiles at me. I slip on some flats and look at him. "Good?"

"Perfect."

He holds out his hand and I take it. We head all the way towards the astronomy tower. As soon as we make it to the stairs, he pauses. "Give me a head start." He says.

I wait a couple seconds as he disappears up to the tower. When I think it's been long enough, I head up to meet him. Once i'm at the top, I gasp.

There's floating candles lining the perimeter of the tower, and there's white and red rose petals on the floor.

"This is beautiful, Draco." I say, still shocked.

He looks right into my soul. "It's even more beautiful now."

I walk towards him while I blush. "Do you like it?"

I smile, pulling him into a hug. "I love it. You're the best."

He's smells good. So insanely good. He's never smelled different the entire time i've known him. He always uses the same cologne. It's absolutely intoxicating.

I pull away, touching his chest. "I also love this."

He holds my face in his hands. I place my hands over his. I immediately know that look on his face. "Go ahead. Say it."

He smiles even more. "You're so beautiful."

"You know what, I think i'm finally going to say it."

His face lights up just as I say, "I know."

He kisses the top of my head. "Do you mind if I make you just a little more beautiful?"

"I thought you said I couldn't be more beautiful?"

He shrugs. "Yes, but then I started thinking..."

He kneels down on one knee.

He kneels down on one knee.

I've been waiting for this moment for what feels like forever.

The hand that he isn't holding right now is over my mouth, and i'm freaking out the inside. This is really happening.

My favorite part though, is when I hear his voice. His nervous, romantic little voice.

"I enjoy every single part of being in love with you. I love the little moments too. Even the moments I shouldn't remember. I love the way you smile when I look at you. I love the way you furrow your eyebrows when your concentrated. I love your angry pout face when you get mad. I love the way you look at Hiraeth. I love the way you love her, and I love the way you love me. People use the term 'love' in all sorts of wrong ways, but I know i'm using it right when I talk about you. I know that because I cherish these little moments, the little moments that would get overlooked by so many people. But I notice them, and i'll keep them in my heart forever. This is you and me forever, and I promise that. So like I was saying, I think you'll be even more beautiful with my last name and a pretty ring on your finger."

He has tears in his eyes when he asks the big question. "Savanna, will you marry me?"

I also have tears in my eyes, because I can feel them running down my cheeks. "Yes." I say, "Yes."

I've never said yes so confidently in all my life. I love him, I love him so much it hurts.

He slips the ring on my finger. The absolutely gorgeous ring. I kneel down with him and kiss him. I make sure that this kiss is the most precious one yet.

I suddenly hear the flash of a camera. I pull away from Draco, and turn my attention to Colin, who was hiding this whole time with his camera. He walks up to Draco, "I want double for having to watch you guys snogging."

Draco shrugs. "Fair enough. Now go to bed, it's late."

Colin runs off and back to the castle. Meanwhile, I get back to being the happiest girl on the planet.

"I love you, Draco." I say.

"I love you." He replies, then he kisses me again.

When we part again, I hold my ring up to him. He looks at me with a confused look.

"I want you to kiss it. You always kiss a ring after you put it on me." I say. "I'm not the only one who remembers little moments."

He smiles and presses his lips to it. "I feel more beautiful already." I tell him.

"Yeah?"

I hold his head against my chest as he hugs me. "Yeah."
