“Happy February, Hermione.” Severus gave his witch a quick kiss as he entered her rooms.
“Don't you mean Happy Valentine's Day?”
“No, I don't celebrate Valentine's Day.”
“You don’t?”
“No, it has become too commercial, just a reason to buy flowers and chocolates to prove you love someone. Either you love the person, or you don’t. Chocolates and flowers don’t change that.”
“So I shouldn’t expect any type of gift from you? We’re not going to celebrate the day?”
“Well, we can celebrate our two week engagement, if you like. Why is it that you don’t wear your engagement ring?”

“What engagement ring? What are you talking about?”
“Perhaps, you’d like a different ring?”
“You want to get married?”
Severus gazed deeply into Hermione’s eyes. “Hmm, well, you don’t look cursed. You really don’t remember getting engaged on the anniversary of our first date? We had dinner at Bewitched.”
“I remember dinner at Bewitched. That was it. I’d remember if you proposed to me. Actually, I thought you were going to, but, well…”
“You remember having dinner. How about after that?”
Hermione blushed. “You know what happened after that.”
Severus smiled. “Yes, I do. I mean after dinner but before…that.”

“We had dinner, and then came back to Hogwarts and…you know.”
Severus reached into his pocket and fished out a diamond ring. “I must have forgotten to propose to you. Maybe that's why I still have the ring." Bending down on one knee, he took Hermione’s hand in his. “Hermione, I love you. Would you do me the honor of becoming my wife?”
“Yes, yes you daft man. Yes!” Hermione flew into Severus’ arms. She peppered his face with kisses before pulling him in for a soulful kiss.
Severus hugged her close, whispering in her ear, “Happy February, my love.”

Hahahaha, oh my goodness, Severus! How could he have forgotten to propse? Lol, silly man.
Fantastic job with all of these drabbles!
Oh my gosh, Severus is just so sweet. Quite jealous of Hermione here!
Love the banter between these two! :)
Oh... Severus... I just want to give him a big hug. I do enjoy stories where Severus is given "the talk" by Hermione's father. :)
hahaha, oh goodness, I loved this! What an awesome birthday surprise for Droxy!
Lovely!
Hee! No arguing with that :)
I only hope he faired better with his mother in law - they can be ferocious!
She does bare an uncanny resemblance, doesn't she? Most deserving of a cake!
Adorable! I loved this!
It was the last coherent thought either of them had for quite some time.
A happy ending if ever I saw one!
Awww ...
Yes, that sounds about right on all accounts. :)
HaHa! His double, indeed.
I loved every chapter, especially this last one. Very well done:-))
I Love It!
Have you got the time zones reversed, perhaps? I thought England was ahead of us.

There is no known cure, for the effects of ...you know and ...then on the memory. BEWARE we are none of us emmune.
I love a man that not only has good intenations, but follows through with them.
AS long as they both agree on that, they will be fine.
A very wise man.
So glad Severus has decided to wait, icing can be hell to clean of kitchen surfaces.
