"I know just the muggle song for this time" Draco smiled, "What is that sad look in your eyes

Why are you crying
Tell me now, tell me now
Tell me, why you're feelin' this way
I hate to see you so down, oh baby
Is it your heart
Ooh, that's breakin' all in pieces
Makin' you cry
Makin' you feel blue

Is there anything that I can do" He glanced at Hermione who was listening intently as he sung, a smile escaped his mouth as he went back to singing.

"Why don't you tell me where it hurts now, baby

And I'll do my best to make it better
Yes, I'll do my best to make those tears all go away
Just tell me where it hurts now, tell me
And I love you with a love so tender
Oh and if you let me stay

I'll love all of the hurt away"
Hermione's brown orbs found their way to Draco's serene face as he sang to her, his voice just soothed her very soul,  it was all literally music to her ears. She couldn't believe that the man singing to her now, is the same man that insulted her nonstop back in Hogwarts. It was such an unexpected turn of events, she had her life planned and prepared, following her path through a straight road. But a certain ferret decided to come into her life, taking her to all sorts of places she herself never planned on visiting.

This same idiot made her feel a lot of things she never expected to feel even with Ron.  Her heart always jumps when she catches his eyes looking at her, and her cheeks go warm whenever he flashes her even his most smug smirk. And her whole being just melts when he presses his lips on hers, not wanting to break away from it.

Hermione was too distracted just listening to Draco, it seemed like time was slowing down. Draco had shifted to another song, I've had enough practice in the bathroom, I guess now is the time to see what I've got.

"105 is the number that comes to my head

When I think of all the years I wanna be with you
Wake up every morning with you in my bed
That's precisely what I plan to do"
  The blonde sang as his foot tapped the floor along with the beat.

"And you know one of these days when I get my money right
Buy you everything and show you all the finer things in life
Will forever be enough, so there ain't no need to rush
But one day, I won't be able to ask you loud enough

I'll say will you marry me
I swear that I will mean it
I'll say will you marry me"

Hermione knew the song and sang along with Draco, snapping her fingers and dancing around the room in glee. She found herself gasping when Draco kneels in front of her,  holding a green, velvet box,  he opens it to reveal a shining, silver ring. "Hermione Jean Granger... " his eyes met hers, she was flabbergasted. "I know it's just been eight months since we dated, and today we're celebrating our ninth month anniversary."

Draco didn't take his eyes off her, although he felt utterly nervous, he just said all that his heart and mind were telling him to,  "I want to ask,  you hand in marriage. Mione,  will you marry me? ".

Hermione's lips quivered,  she was taken aback, she stared at Draco, and then the ring,  then back at Draco again. She didn't know what to say.

Draco's heart raced, he was sweating in all nervousness If she rejects me, I will die in embarrassment. And she shall receive the award of being The First Woman to Reject a Malfoy.

Draco was sweating bullets as his teeth met his lower lip, Maybe she didn't hear me correctly, "Hermione, will you marry me?" he asked again, hoping she'd give an answer this time. Hermione's brows were raised and arched, she tried to say something but nothing came out from her mouth.
