He couldn't help but offer Ginny one fond smile in response, reaching out across the table to let her take his hand casually. "Yes, it means we're still dating. It's just a very formal way of dating, actually. George would be a wise choice, I'll give her that much." Draco chuckled quietly. "Damn good thing George likes me, then."

You don't have to accept the proposal if you don't want to, but it's there if you wish it to be there. You might not be up to my status, but if I'm seen with you, you'll get plenty of bids from blokes higher up in the food chain, if you want to choose someone else."
