Hermione's POV

Everything has been fine since the new years eve party. Severus and I went to Malfoy manor to discuss our wedding. We ended up having dinner there and decided our wedding party. What sort of cake to have, what food and drinks will be served. As well as what flowers we should use. But Narcissa and I would be finalizing the details at a later date. While Severus and Lucius handled the grooms party & honeymoon details. Both Crookshanks and Eileen were desexed. Luckily Eileen was not already pregnant.

Now it is time for the daily prophet interview. It was the final day before Severus and I had to return to Hogwarts. I was going on the train with the other students, while he  apperated to Hogsmeade. Speaking of the Daily prophet, Rita Skeeter had been sentenced to three years in prison and a fund for being an unregistered animagus. And two years of community service for the lives she'd ruined. She was also fired and would never write for a publishing business again.

Just then a knock at the door, pulled me from my thoughts. Severus answered it and returned with the reporter. Severus sat beside me as I continued to pat Crookshanks and he patted Eileen. "Hello, how was your Christmas and new year?" I ask him.

"It was fine, spent it with the family" he says smiling. "Who's this?" he asks gesturing to Eileen.

"Eileen, she was a Christmas gift from Pansy Parkinson" I state smiling. "So where did you want to start this interview?" I ask. Severus wraps his spare arm around me as the reporter pulled out a notepad & quill.

"I see you're both engaged now, how long have you been engaged for?" he asks.

"Four weeks now" Severus states.

"How did he proposed?" the reporter asks.

"He took me out on our first date, we watched my favourite muggle movie. Before he took me to dinner at the London Eye. I was admiring the view, until I turned to see him on one knee" I explain smiling at the memory.

"Why keep it a secret before Christmas?" he asks.

"Because, we wanted to celebrate it ourselves and get used to being engaged" Severus states.

"More like, he wanted to tell everyone together. But didn't want anyone to be suspicious by organizing a big party or gathering" I say smirking.

"Have you worn the ring, the whole time?" the reporter asks.

"Yes, but had a disillusionment charm on it" I state.

"How did your friends react to the news of your engagement?" he asks.

"They all took it pretty well, even Weasley" Severus states.

"Ronald Weasley?" the reporter asks and we nod our heads. "So what have you done over the winter break?" he asks.

"Nothing much, been here or at my place. Visiting friends, studying, making potions, went on a few low key dates and shopping" I explain.

"Also planning our wedding, which is to be in May" Severus adds.

"Can I have any details about the wedding?" the reporter asks.

"Afraid not, we want to keep it quiet until we send out the invites next month. But you're invited and can bring a place one" I tell him. "But please try to be professional, it will be our wedding day. We don't want any of ours or our friends private information in the paper" I tell him.

"Yes, you say where we married, who was in the wedding party and who married us. About the food and decorations. Even what song we dance to, but nothing else" Severus clarifies. "If not, things could get really bad for you" he adds.

"Of course, I understand" the reporter says. "Don't worry, I won't reveal anything until after the wedding" he assures us. Then had us take a picture with out two cats. "Thank you, for this and the future invite. It means a lot to me and my family" he states.

"Of course, have a good day" I say and Severus shows him out. I then go back to reading my Transfiguration book while patting Crookshanks. While Severus returned to the cellar to continue brewing a potion for Madame Pomfrey. I then prepared dinner and we eat together. Before I did more studying and he finished the potion. Packing it and sending it to Hogwarts.

When bed time came I changed into one of his long shirts and a pair of cotton shorts. We brushed our teeth before crawling into bed. I rest my head on his chest as we say our good nights. I fell asleep to sound of his gentle heart beat.
