Chapter 7:

Fleur was ecstatic. She hugged Hermione tightly. Hermione responded instantly. "I can't believe it. Finally, after all these years of waiting for you, you're here."

Fleur smiled, trying to keep her tears at bay. She was so happy she could cry.

Fleur had so many questions, but before she could ask, Hermione looked to the side and whispered, "Someone's coming."

Before Fleur could do or say anything, Hermione picked her up and took off at high speed. Hermione stopped at Fleur's room. Fleur was impressed with how fast Hermione could run.

Fleur was puzzled. "How do you know where my house is?"

Hermione had a guilty look. "I…I can follow your scent."

Fleur was amazed, "Really?"

Hermione nodded, "I better go before I get caught. I will see you soon."

Hermione took off. Fleur was still amazed of Hermione's speed. Fleur opened her door with a huge smile; still so happy she and Hermione were together. She doubted she would fall asleep soon, so she decided to write to her family and tell them about her and Hermione being together.


Fleur woke up to her owl pecking at her. He was carrying three letters at once. Fleur reached out and grabbed the letters, reading them. They were from her sister, her father and of course her mother. They were all overjoyed. Her mother begged her to bring Hermione home so she could meet her. She also asked her if she planned to marry Hermione.


Fleur got ready for the day and headed out to her classroom. As the students filed in, Fleur saw Hermione walk in and take her seat. Hermione and Fleur did their best to keep their eyes off each other so no one would suspect anything.

After the class was over, Hermione stayed behind. She walked to Fleur, "How about we meet after school?"

"That would be lovely. Meet me at my house." Fleur said

Hermione gave her a smile, "See you then." Hermione walked out.

Fleur knew that it was going to be a long day. She couldn't wait to see Hermione. It always is the highlight of her day.


Fleur walked to her room and opened her door. She closed and locked it and turned around. She was shocked when she saw Hermione standing there in the middle of her living room.

"How did you get in here?" Fleur asked

"The window. You really shouldn't leave your window open, people can sneak in…who isn't me." Hermione responded

"Does it bother you, that I come through your window?" Hermione looked nervous.

Fleur smiled, "No. Not in the least. You make it sound like this wasn't your first time climbing through."

Hermione didn't say anything. She just looked down at the ground.

"This isn't your first time, is it?" Fleur asked

"Maybe not."

Fleur wanted to laugh. "How many times?"

Hermione looked guilty, "I wasn't keeping track. It's just that I'm making sure you're okay. I sneak in when you're sleeping….I hope it doesn't sound as perverted. I'm not trying to stalk you. I give you time alone…I just…"

Fleur smiled, "Don't worry. I don't think any less of you. I think it's really sweet. Feel free to drop by."

Hermione gave her a small. Hermione looked embarrassed.

Fleur walked up to her, "Anyway, I wanted to talk to you."

Hermione nodded, "Me too."

"Why don't we sit on the couch?"

Hermione and Fleur sat next to each other on the comfy, beige couch.

"You may go first. I know you have a lot of questions and I will answer them to the best of my ability."

Fleur smiled, Such a gentleman, or in this case gentlewoman, she thought

"Do you…I mean…drink from humans?" Fleur was hesitant to ask.

Hermione smiled, "Rest assured. I do not drink from humans. My family and I only hunt animals. I can't say that for all vampires. You know, you can tell a lot from a vampire's eyes. Vampire's eyes are golden-brown when if we hunt animals. A vampire who feeds off humans, their eyes are burgundy. And when vampires are thirsty, they turn black."

Fleur smiled, she was very happy to hear Hermione doesn't kill humans. "So you don't need to drink humans?"

Hermione shook her head, "No, it's more for a comfortable feeling. It's like you only eating soup and nothing else. You can see how that would be difficult?"

"So humans are like steaks?"

Hermione laughed, "I suppose."

Fleur smiled she loved hearing Hermione laugh, "How old are you?"

"I'm 20. But technically I'm nearly 100. I was born in 1911."

Fleur gasped. "But you're flawless. You look so young. I know you're immortal but I figure you would age a little."

Hermione smiled, "I will forever look like this."

"I'm not the oldest one. My sister Bella, she is 18. Bella's husband and my brother, Edward was born in 1901. My other brother, Emmett was born in 1915. His wife Rosalie, was born in 1915. My other sister, Alice was born in 1901. And her husband, Jasper was born in 1843. We're all adopted by Carlisle and Esme. Esme was born in 1895. And Carlisle was born in the 1640s."

"Vampires have special abilities. Whatever our strength was when we were human become enhanced. Alice, she is able to see the future, Jasper can feel and change people's emotions, Emmett…is strong. Rosalie has beauty. Edward can read minds and Bella is like a shield. She can let people in if she wants. Carlisle has compassion and Esme is able to love passionately."

Fleur looked at her in amazement, "Wow. That's fascinating. What about you? What is your special ability?"

Hermione looked embarrassed, "Me? Well, I have an easy time learning. Once I learn something, I'll remember it even if I was only taught once. My brain is like a steel trap.

"That's very interesting. I would love to meet your family some day." Fleur said

Hermione smiled, "I have a strong feeling you will soon. My family is anxious to meet you…in a good way, not in a dinner way."

Fleur smiled, "I trust them. They really want to meet me?" Fleur was happy that they already approve of her.

Hermione nodded with a smile.

"Well then guess it's only fair that I tell you that my family wants to meet you as well."

Hermione laughed, "Really? That's something."

Fleur noticed that Hermione seemed nervous all of a sudden.

"What's your next question?"

"How does someone become a vampire?"

Hermione didn't look happy with this question, "Why?"

"Curiosity." Fleur didn't want Hermione to know that she was planning to become a vampire to be with her forever yet.

Hermione looked hesitant to answer. "A vampire bites a human, venom gets inside the human. Vampires have to be strong mentally for it to work. They have to pull away, or the person can die. The venom in the body is painfully unbearable. It's almost impossible for a vampire to stop. Chances are that they won't."

Despite hearing this, Fleur knew Hermione would be able to.

"What made you decide not to kill people?"

Hermione looked at her, "Some of my human traits are still in here," Hermione pointed to her heart. "I don't want to hurt people."

Fleur gave Hermione a loving smile.

Hermione got up, "It's getting late, I should head back before someone realizes I'm gone."

Fleur instantly felt sad, "Okay. I'll see you tomorrow?"

Hermione hugged her, "Of course."

Hermione turned and left.


The next day, Fleur was finishing up the class lesson. Everyone was hardly listening because they were too excited about winter break. After about ten minutes, the class reluctantly left Fleur to attend their next class, leaving behind Fleur and Hermione.

Hermione had a nervous smile on her face as she walked up to Fleur, "So, how anxious are you to meet my family?"

Fleur gave her a hug and grinned, "The sooner, the better."
Hermione grinned, "Well, your wish will come tomorrow, during the holidays."
