"May I have this dance?"

Hermione's head jerked upward. Fred stood in front of her, hand outstretched, a crooked smile gracing his handsome face. She felt her cheeks grow hot but, nodded as she took his hand.

"Thank you." She smiled as he guided her out to the dancefloor. She wrapped her arms around his neck as his fingers came to rest on her waist.

"It's my pleasure, believe me." He said as they swayed to the soft sound of the harp and violin. "You look beautiful, Hermione." He gently pulled her closer to him.

Hermione blushed, "Thank you, Fred. You look pretty handsome yourself." Her voice was a mere whisper. The air was warm and his hands were gentle as he held her close. The smell of flowers and champagne filled the air; the noises of the reception mere background noise. This moment was all about them.

"Hermione, I've been wanting to tell you something for a while now." Fred said, looking far more modest than normal. He wore a sheepish smile and flattering flush on his freckled cheeks.

"What is that?"

"Well it's just…" He trailed off. "I just wanted to tell you that…" He paused momentarily; his blue-green eyes locked with hers before he tangled his fingers in her hair and pulled her into a kiss.

She gasped as he released her, gaping around the room. She felt the heat crawl up her neck as she realized all eyes were on them.

"I love you, Hermione." Fred whispered and she turned her gaze back to his.

She stared at him, blushing, smiling, goofy, funny, Fred Weasley and smiled. "I love you too." She admitted before pulling him in for another kiss.


loved how it started, not so sure about the end. Hope you all enjoy this though.

Kind of inspired by "All About Us" by He is We ft. Owl City

My frist Fremione but, I'll admit, even though I normally hate writing Hermione, I actually kind of enjoyed this.

Going to dedicate this to Syd, just because I know it's your OTP. Hope it's not a complete disappointment! :)
