A/N: Another HP drabble. I don't know why I'm continuing to write these, this one isn't even for a challenge, but I have a head canon that Emmeline is a lesbian and Marlene is her best friend, so this is Emmeline coming out to Marlene.

The Confession
I paced nervously about the common room, waiting for my best mate to get back here. Godric this was going to be awkward.
Marlene comes through the door and I run over, dragging her upstairs without explanation and she didn't protest, she knows me so well.
"Marlene, I need to tell you something and it's really important. Like we secretly know Lily is in love with James but can't tell either of them because consequences important," I ramble on a little bit and she nods, knowing I'm in one of those moods.
"Okay Emmy, what is it?" She asks.
"You remember when we were 7 and we thought boys were really icky and we swore we'd never date them?" I asked, and she smirked.
"Of course, I hope you're not offended I didn't stick to that swear, honey," she replied.
"Nah, I could tell you'd never follow through with that," I smirked, "but that's not what this is about Marls. I haven't broken that swear-"
"Honey, any boy would be privileged to date you," she cuts off.
"If you let me finish, I haven't broken that swear and I'm not going to," I look nervously at her face.
"What do you- oh. Emmy are you saying..." she trails off
"That I'm a lesbian? Yes, I am. What do you think?" I ask nervously.
"Are you going to fuck Sirius' cousin? I've heard rumours about her," she muses.
I burst out laughing, a typical Marlene answer, "Possibly. We would look hot together, assuming you're talking about Narcissa?"
She nods, and we chat more, my concerns about her not accepting my sexuality a distant memory.
A/N2: What do you guys think? This is a friendship I really want to explore more in the future. Emmeline/Narcissa is a ship that intrigues me, however.
