Disclaimer: I'm making no money for this, and I don't own any part of the Harry Potter series.

A.N. I love checking my emails on my phone while I'm at work and seeing that someone new has followed or favourited my story, really makes my day. :D

Pansy

I was standing with Ginny overlooking the lake once again, it had quickly become 'our spot, ' and I loved it, not as much as the girl in my arms, but still, I loved it. I could feel the redhead shivering in my arms slightly, so I tightened my hold on her.

She looked up at me and smiled, "Thank you, it's much too cold today."

"We could head back if you want," I replied gingerly, hoping she didn't want to.

She looked at me as if I were an idiot, "No way, we haven't gone public, and I won't be able to hold you like this when we go back unless we just go straight back to our room."

I smiled and tightened my grip on her even more, overjoyed that she wanted to stay with me, and for the life of me, I couldn't help but kiss her. As our lips came into contact it was like an electric current passed between us, I felt her tongue against my lips, asking for entrance. I granted it and allowed her tongue to explore my mouth, I started massaging her tongue with my own while it was inside my mouth, eliciting a quiet moan from her lips. The moan played through my mind, and I felt an erection form, I tried to pull away, but I wasn't quick enough. The kiss stopped abruptly, and she looked at me with a confused look on her face.

"Why are you trying to hide what you are from me?" she asked sadly.

I hated hearing that tone come from her lips, but I was still scared, still ashamed of what I was, I slumped down in the snow. "I'm scared," I whispered half the truth.

"Why? I'm okay with who you are, I may still be getting used to it, but I am okay with it," she replied as she kneeled down, meeting my eye level.

"How are you okay with it!?" I just didn't understand, I wasn't even okay with it, "I hate it myself, how can anyone be okay with my body if I'm not!?"

Ginny pulled me into a hug, "I'm okay with it because it's a part of who you are," she pulled away from me and looked into my eyes. "If you didn't have a penis, you wouldn't be you, and there is a good chance we would never have even met, properly at least."

What Ginny said was true, but I couldn't but let her words be tarnished by all the grief that it had caused, "I- you're right, but I still hate it."

Ginny leaned into my ear and whispered in a seductive voice, "What if I told you I loved it?"

My face turned red at her tone and words, "Then I'd have to learn to love it too," I squeaked, I wanted us to work and if she like my body, then I would too.

"Good," she said standing up and pulling me with her, "Because I'd like to ask you something, why do you have it?" her tone only conveyed curiosity. None of the weariness or animosity that I'd heard in the past, so I decided to tell her what the doctors told me.

"To be honest, I don't really know, apparently, it's more common than you'd think. I'm not saying that half the girls walk around hiding a penis, it's more like one in a hundred thousand women are born this way. The weird thing is that both of my parts work the way they should, I have a womb, ovaries, sperm… everything." I explained, it felt nice to tell someone that genuinely wanted to know, and I even felt a little better about myself.

"Really? One in a hundred thousand? I've never heard of anyone having one that wasn't supposed to," Ginny replied confused.

"Well of course not, most people born this way try to hide it to the best of their abilities, but, the whole school knows about me… even if most of them didn't believe it, the thought will always be there."

"Well if they hate you for it, it's their loss, you're amazing," She smiled at me as she took my hand leading me back to the castle. I looked at her a little confused as to why we headed back to the castle already, she noticed the look and let out a little giggle. "Look at the sun."

I looked at the horizon and saw that the sun was beginning to set, so of course, we were headed back to the castle for the feast and the announcement of who was going to be each school's champion.

Hermione

I sat with my small, slowly growing, group of friends, Emily sat next to Harry, and they were clearly flirting with each other. Ginny was sitting next to Pansy, they weren't flirting like Harry and Emily, but I could clearly see that underneath the table they were holding hands. I was happy for my friends, but I was also jealous, I wanted someone as well… Fleur. I smiled at the thought, I'd stopped lying to myself a while ago, but I was also scared, Fleur was amazing, but she could clearly have anyone. What if she doesn't want to be with me? What if she does agree to go out with me but cheats on me? I needed to know more about her, find out who she was, what made her who she is, how she came to conclusions and what drives her.

I looked up to the front of the room after noticing everyone else had done so, Professor Dumbledore was standing in front of the Goblet of Fire that had been moved into the Great Hall earlier. He'd already started speaking so I decided I should really listen in, "-once I call your name, you are to go through that door," the professor gestured to the door behind the teacher's table. "I would like the champions to walk through the door quickly so we can move things along. Now without further ado…"

The Goblet's flames started flickering, growing bigger and brighter as a small piece of parchment flew from the top of the cup, a few gasps could be heard from around the room with people looking on in awe. Dumbledore snatched the parchment out of the air before opening it, "The Durmstrang champion is… Viktor Krum!" A round of applause rang out from the students, coupled with a roar of cheer, and a few, including Ron, were whistling loudly in congratulations for the Bulgarian seeker.

The room quietened as the blue flames started flickering again, snatching the parchment from the air in much the same fashion Dumbledore opened the parchment, "The Hogwarts champion is… Cedric Diggory!" The round of applause for Cedric seemed louder, but that could have just been because he was in Gryffindor, which had most of the Gryffindor's on their feet cheering for him. I was one of the few that was content staying seated as I cheered for him, I didn't know him, so I didn't see the point in cheering so vigorously.

The crowd quietened once again, and this time I could feel a little worry flicker to the front of my mind. I remembered that Fleur had to place her name into the Goblet, much like all the rest of the Beauxbatons' students. I watched as the blue flames danced, growing and changing as I a blue piece of parchment was shot from the peak. I swallowed down my dread as I watched Dumbledore snatch the parchment from the air, "And the champion for Beauxbatons is… Fleur Delacour!" I let out a shaky breath, a breath I didn't realize I was holding, I was scared for Fleur… I knew it was a major accomplishment, but I was still worried none the less. But despite my worry, I let out a loud cheer for the platinum blond as I stood to clap for her. Her eyes locked with mine and she sent me an appreciative smile before she passed through the door behind the teacher's table.

I sat down and received a few odd looks for my outburst, blushing lightly I lowered my gaze to my food and started to eat it, trying to ignore the stares. But there was one, in particular, I couldn't quite ignore, I looked up and saw a smirking Ginny looking at me, and instinctively I knew that her payback would be coming very soon.

I ducked out of the Great Hall shortly afterward, hoping to get away from Ginny for, at the very least, a few hours, "And where do you think you're going?" an all too familiar voice asked from behind me.

I stopped dead in my tracks, "Dammit," I mumbled as I turned towards a smirking redhead. But I couldn't help but smirk back at the sight of Pansy standing behind her, their hands still clasped together, "I was just giving you guy's some space," I teased, hoping to fluster her enough to get away.

"We're okay but thanks for your concern," Ginny deadpanned, obviously catching on to my scheme, before smirking again, "And maybe you need some time alone with Fleur... I knew you had a crush on her."

I flushed, I may have stopped lying to myself, but that doesn't mean I was ready to admit it out loud, "I-I do not," I stuttered, but even I knew it was a rather weak denial.

"Yeah you do, but I'll forgive you," Ginny smirked, "But I won't be as forgiving about the fact that you didn't tell me she was here… I thought we were friends," Ginny said with a mock frown, exaggeratedly sniffling as she dabbed at her eyes.

I rolled my eyes at her, "Sorry I wasn't so open…" as I spoke an idea formed in my mind, Ginny never actually told me she was dating Pansy, of course I knew, they were so obvious, especially back in the dorm. But she never actually told me, I looked down at the floor, acting depressed as well as I could, "I didn't know if you'd care."

"W-What? Of course, I'd care," Ginny's voice lost its teasing tone and was now concerned.

My face was hidden by my hair, and I couldn't wipe the smirk off my face, "Well, you never told me you started dating Pansy, I had to figure it out for myself," I reached a hand up to my face, pretending to wipe my eyes.

"I'm so sorry," Ginny replied over dramatically, she'd definitely heard the smirk in my tone, so I looked up at her with a smirk still on my face. "And you can't weasel your way out of the teasing, you know you deserve it.

I laughed in response, I did know that I deserved it, I put her through the same thing with Pansy, "I know, but I got to try, right?"

Ginny nodded as we headed up to the Gryffindor tower, for the rest of the night I decided it would be best to study to keep my mind occupied and not worry about what was to come in the tournament.

Ginny

It'd been a week since the Champions were chosen for the Triwizard tournament, I'd spent the time either with Pansy in our spot, or teasing Hermione about Fleur. It seemed the more I teased her though, the more time she spent with Fleur, and I was actually wondering if they were seeing each other.

"I hear you like the freaks dick," I was stopped in my tracks by some Slytherin girl, my jaw dropped, and my eyes opened wide as her statement swirled in my mind. "I don't need to see how wide your mouth opens when you get down on your knees to suck her dick," the girl sneered.

Instinctively my hand flew through the air, colliding with the girl's face, a loud crack rang out through the halls causing a bunch of people to stop and look in our direction. I leaned closer to her my face just inches from hers as I spoke in a low, dangerous tone, "Do not call Pansy a freak," I warned her.

"Protecting your disgusting girlfriend, are you?" Malfoy's voice rang in my ears, I whipped around to face him, only to see he was holding a piece of paper in front of me. On the top was the caption, The Freak, and her Lezzie Ginger Slut. Underneath the caption was a moving picture of Pansy and I kissing before pulling away and smiling at each other, the memory would have been amazing, if it wasn't ruined by the caption and Malfoy's taunting.

Ripping my wand from its holster, I swished it as I exclaimed, "Flipendo!" Malfoy jumped out of the way, and I ended up hitting an unsuspecting bystander, knocking the boy to his ass. As Malfoy walked back in front of me, he drew his own wand and glared at me.

"You'll pay for that," he said as he raised his wand, "Expelliarmus!" his aim was true, and my wand was knocked from my hand, it clattered to the floor, too far for me to reach. But I held my ground, glaring daggers at Malfoy, he just smirked at me, "Baubillious!" a white bolt of electricity ripped from the tip of his wand. As it snaked before me I tried to jump out of the way but it was too fast, it hit me in the shoulder and a white-hot pain spread through my body in an instant. I screamed as the electrical current ran through my body, cooking me from the inside out. As the pain finally receded, I slumped down to the floor, but Malfoy apparently wasn't finished. He raised his arm again "Incendio!" I lay on the floor helpless as the flames slowly encroached on me, but instead of setting me on fire, the spell hit an invisible wall that had been formed between the spell and me.

I looked into the eyes of Pansy as she crouched over me, with Fleur standing behind her, facing Malfoy, as Fleur raised her wand Malfoy visibly cowered as he 'ran for the hills' so to speak. Fleur knelt down beside me casting some sort of charm on me, as the charm spread through my body I immediately started to feel better.

I smiled at Fleur, "Thank you," she smiled back and gave me a small nod, with that out of the way I immediately embraced Pansy. She returned the embrace with ferocity, as I held her I could feel her body shaking and I knew she was crying. Stroking her hair, I whispered, "It's okay Pansy, at least now we can act like a couple in public."

Pansy pulled away abruptly, she had a massive smile on her face, but her voice was shaky, unsure, "You really still want to be with me? Even after all of this?"

I pulled her in and kissed her lips, slipping my tongue into her mouth in front of all the students that had gathered around us. I pulled away after a few moments with a smile, "Definitely," I replied before reinforcing it even more by giving her a light peck.

There were more than a few catcalls coming from the gathered students as we stood, hand in hand, I smiled at Fleur once more, "Been having fun with Hermione?" I asked, suggestively.

Her face colored a little but other than that there was no tell that she was embarrassed by the comment, as much as it ruined what I was trying to achieve, I admired it. "Lots of fun," she replied in a beautiful French accent. "She is a very smart young girl, no?"

I nodded, "The smartest witch in the school, but I've got the most beautiful," I said nudging Pansy with my hip.

"She is rather pretty," Fleur agreed.

"Hands off, this is mine," I lightly tapped Pansy's ass to emphasize my point.

Pansy let out a squeak of surprise causing Fleur and me to giggle, "Not fair," Pansy pouted, "You guys are ganging up on me."

"Well, the most beautiful girl is always the center of attention," I smirked at the embarrassed look on Pansy's face.

"You're much prettier than I," she protested looking down at the floor, I looked to Fleur, silently pleading for help.

Fleur looked confused, but she complied, "I do not believe that is true," as Fleur spoke Pansy raised her head and looked into the Champion's eyes, seeming to be trying to identify any form of deception. "You are the second most beautiful girl in this school."

That intrigued me, even though she was quite possibly lying about how she thought of Pansy, the fact that she still said second most meant someone was always going to be first in her book, and I couldn't help but wonder who it was. Ignoring the curiosity, I focused back on my black-haired goddess.

"You see Pansy, even the French beauty thinks your attractive," Pansy still seemed disbelieving, but I think I was starting to get through to her. What I really needed though was for other people to accept her for what was beyond her control…

I spent the rest of the day with Pansy, Hermione, and Fleur, I used the extra people to my advantage and got the other two girls to complement Pansy, not overly so, just every now and then so she wouldn't catch on to my plan.

Fleur

Ever since I'd started spending time with Pansy and Ginny, I'd started hearing rumors of Pansy, rumors about a certain… appendage. And I couldn't help but wonder if it was true, I'd never met anyone else like me, and it would be nice to know someone that was. Although having spent time with the girl, I knew she was somewhat ashamed of herself, and I assumed it had something to do with her penis.

I steeled my resolve as I approached her in the library, she smiled at me as I approached and I smiled back at her. I sat down across the table from her and leaned in, "Can I ask you something… personal?" I asked hesitantly, I knew I needed to handle this delicately.

"Yes?" she answered hesitantly, visibly gulping.

I knew she was scared of what I was going to ask, that told me she was planning on answering truthfully. "I heard a… rumor that you have something girls aren't usually born with… is it true," I tried to make myself sound hopeful, but I'm not sure if I was able to with English not being my native language. She nodded her head slowly, answering my question, I watched as she flinched slightly after answering, and I wondered how bad her past experiences must have been. I smiled at her, "I was too," I told her in a soft voice.

Her head snapped up to me, and her eyes were wide, "R-Really? You're like me?"

I nodded, "I am, I never thought I'd ever meet someone else like me, and now that I have, I'm happy."

The black-haired girl jumped up from her seat, ran around the table and wrapped me in a crushing hug, "I am too," she sobbed tears of joy, "Finally, someone that really knows what it's like."

I smiled as she let go of me, returning to her seat a little embarrassed, "Can I ask you something else?" Pansy nodded and gestured for me to go ahead, "Does Ginny know about you? And if so, is she okay with it?"

Pansy sighed, "She does know, and she says she's okay with it… but for some reason, I can't bring myself to believe it. Every time she's talked about it and said she was okay with it I haven't been able to detect even a hint of deceit, but I still don't fully believe her."

I nodded, "You're scared, aren't you?"

"I-I am," the girl admitted, "Not to mention extremely self-conscious, what if we get to a stage where she actually sees it and decides then that she's not okay with me? I wouldn't be able to handle it."

I nodded, "I've never been able to feel that way…" I contemplated telling Pansy the rest of my secret, I knew that if I was really going to help her, I needed to. So, I threw caution to the wind and decided to tell her, "Do you know what a Veela is?"

Pansy nodded, "Yeah my parents are friends with some Veela, so I know quite a bit about them."

"Good, that'll make the explanation much simpler, do you know that we only fall in love once?"

"No, they always said that was too personal for them to share with me."

"That doesn't surprise me, we Veela are a private bunch after all. Anyway, we are like wolves, we only fall in love once, with one person and it is instantaneous, sometimes it's hard to really realize that it's happened, it can be subtle… like it was for me. When I fell in love, all I felt was a pull towards the other girl, and my glamor had no effect on her what so ever."

"So, you guys are kind of like wolves?" Pansy asked curiously.

"Essentially, yes, although some of us cannot live without our mates," I hesitantly reached out to my left arm and slowly pulled the sleeve up my arm, the scars trailed along my wrists all the way up to my elbow. The younger girl gasped at the sight, and her hand instinctively reached across the table, running her fingers along the scars. "This is what happened when I was away from my mate for two months… as well as practically being emotionally dead."

"My god, I'm so sorry…" Pansy was choked up a little, but she recovered after clearing her throat, "I take it this girl goes to Hogwarts then?"

I nodded, "In fact, you share a dorm room with her," Pansy's eyes widened.

"Really?" she squeaked.

"Yep, it's Hermione."

Realization shone in Pansy's features, "Obviously, it's Hermione, how didn't I see it."

"Well, you were a little preoccupied."

"But you guys aren't together… right?"

"Right," I nodded, "It was not being able to see her that caused the damage and while I can survive for a little while without us being together. I'm afraid time is running out, I can feel the depression edging back in, I need to get her to date me, if not more…"

"I'll help," Pansy squealed excitedly, "Anything you need me to do just ask and I'll do it, ooh, I can also subtly push her towards you!"

"SHHH!" Madam Pince shushed the excited girl.

"Thank you, that means a lot."

"Don't mention it, were friends now," Pansy replied with a smile.

Over the next few days, I noticed Pansy talking to Hermione a little more often, probably saying things that are meant to make me look good. And whenever we were walking together or sitting together Pansy tried as hard as she could to have Hermione next to me. It was nice of her, and I couldn't help the smile every time she'd do something to help me. I also noticed Hermione seemed to actually be warming up to me more, of course, she was getting closer to me steadily before, now we seemed to be getting closer quicker.

This was reinforced one Sunday when Hermione invited me to go with her to Hogsmeade. We were slowly walking down the street just chatting and looking through the windows at a few of the shops.

"You ever had Butterbeer?" the brunette asked.

"Can't say that I have, wouldn't that be illegal though? I mean, we are under age."

Hermione started openly laughing at me, I was baffled as to why she was but before I could ask she calmed down enough to explain. "Butterbeer isn't alcoholic."

"Ohh, well, guess the jokes on me."

The brunette smirked, "Yeah it is," she said as she dragged me into an inn, it was rather full and I wasn't sure we'd be able to get a served let alone get a seat. But to my surprise, as Hermione approached the counter two steaming mugs of what I guess to be Butterbeer appeared, seemingly out of thin air. She dropped a couple of Sickles on the counter before grabbing our drinks and handing one to me.

I looked down at the liquid and gave a tentative sniff, my nose was filled with a sweet aroma that had my mouth watering slightly. I took a big gulp of the liquid and moaned quietly as it coated my tongue and slipped down my throat, "Amazing," I murmured.

Hermione grinned, "Isn't it?" I nodded reaffirming my answer. The warmth of the drink felt nice as it slowly made its way to my stomach. We drank the beverages while still chatting and I noticed a small badge on the brunette's chest as she finished her cup.

"What's this?" I asked as I grabbed the badge between my thumb and index finger. Hermione looked a little embarrassed as she looked down at the badge "Spew?" I asked a little confused.

Hermione laughed, "Not spew, S.P.E.W, it stands for Society for the Promotion of Elvish Welfare, we're trying to help House Elves have better lives," Hermione explained.

"Can I join?" I asked, I knew House Elves were treated poorly by a lot of people and I wanted to do something to help.

"Sure!" Hermione exclaimed as she reached into her pocket, brandishing a badge identical to her own, "You need to make a minimum donation of two Sickle's for the badge, but you can donate as much as you want, here," she held out the badge for me. I took it and pinned it to my chest, the brunette smiled, "It looks good on you… really good," she mumbled the last part, and I decided to ignore it, I knew she didn't mean for me to hear the last part. Clearing her throat, she spoke again, "You can give your donation to Pansy, she's the treasurer."

I nodded smiling at her, "I'm glad someone is trying to help those little guys, they're rather cute."

"Thank you, I'm glad you want to help too."

The rest of the day was spent walking around the small village, we were laughing and talking the whole way, and I couldn't help but think that she felt the something for me. And if her comment about the badge looking 'really good' on me was anything to go by, then she was at least attracted to me. The thought sent excited chills to run through my body, chills that I couldn't wait to have again.
