A/N: I've been on an updating roll lately.

Hermione sprinted up the stairs and threw herself into Ginny's room. She panted heavily. "I...just...Fleur...holy shit..."

"Whoa, whoa. Hermione, breathe. What happened?" Ginny leaned towards Hermione, anxious to hear.

Hermione clutched her side and waited until her breathing returned to normal. "I just kissed Fleur! FLEUR!!"

Ginny stared at Hermione, dumbfounded. "Oh my god..." Ginny jumped up and down. "This is so exciting! Oh my god! Your first lesbian kiss!!" she threw her arms around her best friend.

Hermione smiled, bliss filling her up. She wrapped her arms around Ginny and the two danced around merrily.

"So what happened after you kissed?" Ginny asked several moments later, as they lay panting on Ginny's bed..

Hermione's smile fell. "Oh...shit. Oh no! Oh, Ginny!" Hermione threw herself to the floor and wailed. "I ran! Oh my god! How could I have been so stupid?!"

"You ran? Hermione, are you daft?! She kissed you, and you thanked her by running?" Ginny asked in disbelief.

Tears leaked out of Hermione's eyes. "I know! I know! I have to make it right! I have to go tell her how I feel." Hermione darted out of the room, the surge of adrenaline giving her courage.

Ginny shook her head. "Lesbians..."

Hermione ran speedily down the stairs and over to Fleur's room. She knocked on the door impatiently while tapping her foot. "Fleur? Fleur! Open up please!"

The door cracked a little. "What do you want 'ermione?"

"I just...I just..." Hermione faltered.

"Please, 'ermione!" Fleur snapped. "I am too busy for your nonsense!" Fleur slammed the door shut.

Hermione stood there, speechless. She began to choke on her tears. "F-fleur, please. Please i-it's really imp-portant." she hoped and prayed that Fleur would reopen the door.

The door opened just a smidgen, and Hermione could see one of Fleur's magnificent ice-blue eyes staring back at her. Fleur sighed and opened the door. "Fine. What is it?"

Hermione was lost in her gaze at Fleur. Her eyes ran lazily up Fleur's feature. Her platinum blonde hair, and her icy blue eyes enraptured Hermione totally.

Fleur stared at Hermione. Is she looking at me?, Fleur wondered. She too couldn't help herself from staring at the other girl's amazing (in her opinion at least) features.

"Fleur?" Hermione asked, snapping Fleur out of her stupor.

"Oui?"

"I...I..." Why couldn't she get the damn words out?! Never mind words, actions have always spoken louder. Hermione summoned up all her courage, tenderly grabbed Fleur's head, and kissed her passionately. Right there in the middle of the Burrow. Hermione didn't care. All that mattered was Fleur. And her lips. After a few moments Hermione released Fleur and stared at her, terrified.

Fleur took a deep breath and smiled at Hermione. "Come 'ere, 'ermione." Fleur beckoned Hermione into her room. Hermione took one step forward, and hesitated. Impatient, Fleur grabbed Hermione by her collar and wrenched her into the room. Fleur pushed Hermione up against the wall and kissed her ravenously.

"F-Fleur." Hermione managed to spill out a few minutes later.

Fleur pulled away, breathing heavily. "Oui,Ms. Granger?" Fleur smiled, flashing her white teeth at Hermione.

Hermione bit her lip. She took a deep breath. "That was...amazing. You are amazing. I can't...you make...you make me feel giddy."

Fleur laughed softly and took Hermione's hands. "Non, non. It is you who are amazing, 'ermione. Ma chérie..." Fleur leaned closer into Hermione. "I 'ave fallen completely 'ead over 'eels for you." Fleur kissed Hermione softly.

Hermione melted. All her dreams were coming true. "I-I've had these feelings for you...for so long. I'm so...so..."

Fleur smiled and kissed Hermione on the cheek. "Usually you are so articulate, 'ermione. Do I really leave you so speechless?"

Hermione nodded weakly. "Fleur..." Hermione trailed off. "I'm..." she looked positively petrified.

Fleur gazed at Hermione worriedly. "What is it, 'ermione? You look whiter zan a ghost."

Hermione's breathing became erratic. "I'm just...so...scared."

Fleur smiled warmly. "Everyzing will be alright, 'ermione." she nuzzled Hermione's neck. "All new experiences are scary, but we will get through zis, you and I."

Warm relief spread from Hermione's head to the tips of her stories. A thought occurred to her, and she bolted from the room, excitement filling her up.

Fleur stared after Hermione, confusion written all over her face. Was the English witch ever going to stop running from her?

Hermione opened the door to Ginny's room and danced all around. "I just kissed Fleur again!"

Ginny smiled, happy that her best friend was happy. "What was it like?"

Hermione leaned against the wall and slid down it. "Mmm...like kissing silk. Only you know, thick silk. And, oh god, it was...wonderful."

"So are you guys official?" Ginny asked hopefully.

Hermione's eyes grew wide. "Uh...I left before she could ask.Shit." Hermione jumped up and squeezed Ginny's hands. "Wish me luck! I'm going to go ask out the most beautiful girl in the world!!"

Hermione skipped happily down the stairs and into Fleur's room. Upon her entering, Fleur jumped up. Hermione held up her hand. "Fleur, wait. Sorry I left without saying anything. I want to ask you a question."

Fleur looked at Hermione. "So you didn't leave again because you were scared?"

"Oh, no, no. Sorry. Sometimes I just...run off like that."

"So I 'ave noticed."

Hermione blushed. "Well, I wanted to ask you something."

Fleur nodded. "Go on. Ask me."

Hermione grasped both of Fleur's smooth, soft hands. "Fleur Delacour, will you be my girlfriend?"

Fleur looked at Hermione, unable to believe what she just heard. "I..er..well..see zis is..I.." Fleur sputtered.

Hermione looked at Fleur, confused by her stuttering. "I thought...I thought that you liked me." A look of horror crossed her face. "Oh my god...I misunderstood everything." She turned towards the door.

"No, 'ermione. No, listen. I 'ave feelings for you. You just, surprised me, zat is all. Of course I want to be with you. I 'ave only just finished with Bill, so I 'ave to move out of 'ere soon. Will you 'elp me find a place, darling?"

Hermione beamed. "Of course, Fleur. You're still staying in England, right?"

Fleur nodded. She took Hermione's hand and they walked towards the door. "Let's start a new adventure, you and I. Shall we?"

Hermione felt her heart melting. "Yes, Fleur." she breathed. She leaned towards Fleur and gave her a soft little kiss on her mouth. Hermione made a mental note to thank Ginny later. Without her, Hermione never would've admitted her feelings to the beautiful French veela. Hermione no longer felt as if she head to run, literally or figuratively. She felt like staying put in life.

THE END!!!

A/N: Sorry if you were expecting more, but really, this was meant to be a shorter story. Hope you liked it!!
