"So what now?" Harry asked.
Draco liked the fact Harry seemed willing to defer to him in pureblood matters; it showed a willingness to learn he had entirely missed in his rival at school.
"How about we do this properly where people can see?" Draco suggested. "I know this lovely little restaurant, public, but not too public, and I'll bring a ring this time."
"A ring?"
"Well it is an engagement."
"Do I get to give you one as well?"
"It you would like, but not immediately, you're not supposed to know, remember?"
Sometimes he despaired of Gryffindors, although Harry looked very pleased at the thought of giving him a ring, so he couldn't be too scathing.
"What kind of ring is suitable?"
Harry looked adorably worried all of a sudden.
"I'll owl you the details," Draco told him, smiling fondly.
He was so gone it was silly. Astoria was most likely going to laugh at him for taking this long to realise what he had been working up to.
"Of course we really should return to the office Christmas party first," Draco pointed out. "Pretend you've had too much punch to explain that even-more-dazed-than-usual expression."
Harry just kissed him.
