A/N: Real life inspired this one… It was actually this week that inspired it.
Dear Ginny,
We've know each other for a few years and been good enough friends. And now that the war's over, we don't see each other as much; I wish that weren't true…
We have plenty of memories shared at the Burrow and at Hogwarts. We've been through a lot together and you had become one of the people I relied on most. I haven't been entirely honest with you though.
Do you remember that day during your 5th year when we had that huge snowball fight on the grounds and when everyone else went in, we stayed outside? I remember saying something about how peaceful it was and how beautiful it was. You agreed, but you never looked over to see that I was talking about you and not the scenery…
That was the night I realized my feelings for you were more than friendly… That was the night when everything changed for me. That was also the night I encouraged you to go out and date other people and forget about Harry. I said that in hopes you would look to me, but I must have been delusional.
Even after you got a new boyfriend I saw how much you still loved Harry. You always tried to act nonchalant around him and you sometimes succeeded, but I could always see the sea of emotions hiding just out of sight.
And then you finally get your wish… finally you get your wish later that year… Harry goes up and kisses you in front of everyone… I was never so angry and heartbroken. Both of you are as happy as can be and then Harry leaves you because he decided to be a self-righteous ass as he is always bound to do. You expected it and said you were okay, but you came to me crying that night.
I held you and whispered that it would be okay even though I knew it wasn't really true. The worst part was that as I held you, all I wanted to do was kiss you, but I fought the urge… I just knew it wouldn't be right.
That night I also decided to come clean about dating Luna a year before and how she broke my heart. I know I shocked you, but you didn't really care because I was still the same old Hermione. That was probably one of the happiest nights of my life while it was one of the worst for you…
That wasn't even the end of it all… the war happened and we all forgot about things that didn't pertain to keeping ourselves alive. After the war you and Harry got back together, he even asked you to marry him. You said yes.
You said yes after all your friends tried to warn you what type of damaged person was hiding under the hero. You said yes because you thought you were in love. You now regret saying yes.
While I wish I had better timing, while I wish I had told you sooner, I can no longer keep this under wraps. I have to tell you because I know Luna has confessed her feelings for you.
Ginevra Molly Weasley, I love you with all my heart. I've loved you since that winter night those few years ago. I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner…
I don't even expect a response, but I needed you to know.
Hermione
I signed and sealed the letter with a feeling of fear in the pit of my stomach. I sent the letter through my new barn owl, Ginger. I didn't know what in the world would happen or if she would even respond, but I desperately needed her to know.
A/N2: How'd you like the first chapter? There will probably only be two more if I decide to stick with this week's events.
