Ray came back, and set up a Table in Draco's room, plain white table cloth, two wine glasses, a single Rose in the centre and a ugly shaded candle next to it.
Hermione frowned inwardly, hiding her face in Draco's chest, pretending she was asleep, as Ray walked in again, holding two plates and placed them carefully on the table.
"Hermione Sweetheart,"Ray whispered, sitting at the table.
Hermione got up, no escape from it now, she thought, and sat down across from him, her eyes tired and dreary, missing sleep.
Raymond smiled delicately, nodding his head to her in greeting, and poured the water from the bottle that he bought at the cafeteria, into her glass.
"Thank you,"she mumbled, stealing a quick glance at Draco, who was still unconscious, and gave him a small smile.
Then she turned back to Ray, who was opening a plastic container like lunchbox thing, which contained a box of frozen lasagna inside.
"Ah.. shit.."he mumbled, closing the lunchbox and sitting back down at the table, frustrated.
He placed his head in his hands, and slid out onto the floor, to his knees and sat in front of Hermione.
"No dinner I'm afraid.."he coughed, looking up at her.

"Em.. well.."he began, taking in deep breathes.

Hermione frowned, but listened to what he had to say.
"Came flooding back to mind, and I realised how much I missed you, and how deeply I was in love with you, Darling"he smiled.
Hermione's eyebrows furrowed and she looked down at her shoe laces, knowing what was coming like a train, and she was strapped to the rails.
"Hermione Jean Granger..
Will you do me the honour of becoming my bride,"
Suddenly there was a scoffing sound from the bed.
They both turned to see who it was.
