This is for a challenge.. (my new thing if you haven't noticed) "Un Valentines Day Challenge" so wish me luck and I'm going to work on this one now.
Fleur stood in front of the mirror, sweeping her long pale hair over her shoulder. She shook her head as she stood in her room. She was wearing a pink sundress that came to her knees and white leggings for her date with Bill. She looked like a pregnant model.
She stared at her flawless face, but didn't see it. Her eyes drifted to the side of the mirror where she saw a small piece of folded paper stuck under the wood. She glanced around suspiciously. "What?" The word fell of her lips as she leaned over to tug the paper away. She pulled it away and slipped it from it's envelope. She gasped. There was a picture of a tall, skinny but busty girl wearing a short lacy black dress.. She had long, black hair and was blowing a kiss to the camera. Fleur flipped the picture over to see sleek words written in red ink.
I miss you Bill.. I know the last time we spoke I was an innocent little girl, but I'm 22 now. I know things that I knew not about when you were at Hogwarts.. Now I know things that I truly didn't know then.. I really want to see you, Bill. Will you consider coming to see me? I'd love to see you, Bill..and I promise to make it worth your while;)

Fleur felt the picture slide between her fingers and heard it thud quietly against the floor. She stood motionless, hands reaching out to her belly through the pink sundress she was wearing for her Valentines Day date with Bill.
"Fleur?" Bill asked, walking into the room. "What's wrong?" He touched her face, smiling as he leaned in to kiss her.
She recoiled from his kiss, cringing. She quickly reached down to the picture that had fallen to the floor, showing it to him. "What is this, Bill?" Her eyes prickled with angry tears.
Bill's eyes went wide. "Uh, Fleur. It's not what you think. Sweetheart, she fell in love with me without provoking. I didn't even talk to her during the Tournament. She only saw me a few times and then the letters started coming..." Bill told her, biting his lip.
Fleur's eyes were teary and heartbroken. "If you never even talked to this girl, why is it that eight years later she is still hung up on you? Huh? Tell me that Bill?" She held the picture in front of his eyes, pushing the tears away. "More importantly, why did you keep it?" She asked angrily.
Bill coughed, taking a long breath. "Fleur I forgot I had that, really. I put it back there a long time ago. It's been ages, really." He told her with a frown.
"Really?" Fleur asked with tears in her eyes as she walked from the room. "It doesn't seem like you could forget about something like that, William!" She yelled into the night as she evaporated into the night where she appeared in her sister's house. Her sister was sitting on her couch, frowning.
"Fleur?" She asked, tilting her head to the side as she looked at her. "What's wrong?"
"It's Bill!" Fleur announced, running to her sister who hugged her tightly.
