He looked at Iris, sitting there, watching him. He took both of her hands, feeling her warmth, and trying to send all he wanted to say to her..... But it wasn't working.

"Iris..." the boy began. "You have been my best friend my entire life." Off to a good start... "We met back in Diagon Alley 8 years ago, before our first summer at Hogwarts, and my life has been different ever since. You were always the woman I loved, and I couldn't imagine my life without you." Aaron's heart was pumping a thousand times a minute as all his words poured out of his mouth. Oh god, he had to continue, didn't he?

He took a step closer. "I love you more than words can describe... And I know we will always be together." And suddenly time stopped for Aaron. He recalled all the times in his life where he was his happiest. And they always were with Iris. From being introduced to Quidditch, to the pumpkin patch, making sandcastles, and the Yule Ball.

And then Aaron imagined their future. Living together... Having a family... Watching their kids go off to Hogwarts, to experience all the same experiences Aaron and Iris had, yet, with their own feelings and interpretations. It would be fantastic.

As time continued, Aaron went down on one knee. The dreaded 'One Knee.' GO FOR IT BUCKO! Aaron could only imagine what Iris was thinking. But Aaron only knew that it felt like millions of eyes were watching him, like their story was coming to an epic climax built upon since the beginning. And as Aaron reached into his pocket for a ring his FANTASTIC mom bought him. That was it. No turning back. Here it goes.

"Iris Beaumont. I want to spend the rest of my life with you... Will you marry me?"
Hecate walked over to the great hall just in time to hear the captain's proposal...

Dear Merlin...

She glared at him her knowing glare. "Ahem.... Not to interrupt your love fest Captain, but we do have a feast to conduct here. Please keep your personal questions to more private areas..." or just away from my presence.

"As you can tell by the green and silver decor, I am coming to congratulate you lot on a term well done." She said not cracking a smile.
