"I wonder if a fall from this height would be enough to kill me," Ginny asked sitting on the roof of the Burrow. She peered down at the ground, watching the chickens dart about pecking for food.

"Probably not," Hermione stated. She was sitting next to her looking up at the sunset. "Do you really want to die anyway?"

"I don't know. I mean, what's left for me out there. Harry's busy with Draco and Ron's being a right git to you tonight. Don't you just wish you could grow wings and fly away?"

"Not really, flying is not my thing. It's kind of horrible actually. There's no safety, the wind is cold and wet."

"Anything sounds bad if you say it with that attitude. I love flying, maybe I should get steal someone's broom and fly away into the sunset, never to be seen again. It's not like anyone would really miss me," Ginny muttered. Hermione reached over and took her hand.

"I'd miss you," Hermione stated. Ginny laughed sliding closer to the edge of the room.

"You say that. Harry said he'd miss me too, then you all went off on your little mission and he came back and ran straight into Draco's arms. I tried so hard to be there for him, you know, you try your best and fail miserably. The lesson is, never try, I guess."

"Just because you failed once doesn't mean you should stop trying, Ginny. I mean, Harry's not the only person in the world who cares about you."

"Yes, I know, Mum, and Dad, and George and Ron, and Charlie and Bill... not Percy. He's an idiot."

"Someone besides your family. I mean, Luna writes you?" Hermione asked noticing Ginny was sliding just a smidgen closer to the edge again. She tightened her hold slightly on the younger girl's hand.

"She's found someone, you know. He's a Scamander! How can I ever expect to compete with that, Hermione?"

"I don't know. You like her like that?"

"A bit... I mean, she's a decent kisser, but now she's kissing him. I mean, it shouldn't mean so much to me, honestly. It was one night, but it was a horrible night otherwise," Ginny sniffled a little and moved another inch closer to the edge. Hermione bit her lip watching her. She moved a little closer herself knowing she'd be pulled down too if Ginny did decide to fall.

"Ginny, there's something I need to talk to you about," she finally said letting the words hang in the air like heavy little bugs buzzing in Ginny's ears.

"Talk, talk, talk, that's all anyone wants to do. I want something more, I want action. Like this," she stated pushing herself from the roof pulling Hermione with her. Hermione held tight to Ginny's hand as the girls plummeted towards the ground. Ginny blinked as they landed a pile of leaves.

"I'm not dead."

"Neither am I, see, I told you it wouldn't work."

"You're still holding my hand."

"Yes, I am." Ginny laughed.

"Really? After all this time, this is the third time we've gone off the roof. Remember the last time?"

"We nearly hit a gnome!" Hermione laughed.

"I will kill you by accident eventually," Ginny stated.

"Probably, but Ginny, there really is something I want to talk to you about, and after five times sitting on the roof trying to say these words, I realized it's not words I need to giving you," Hermione whispered reaching over and pulling Ginny to her. She kissed her hard enough to send Ginny's head spinning. Once she broke the kiss, she looked at Ginny.

"Well?"

"You want it just physical or a relationship?" Ginny asked after a moment.

"Whatever it takes to be with you," Hermione answered. Ginny laughed.

"Good answer, but I don't know what I want. Right now, I'll settle for another kiss like that, and maybe not jumping off the roof tomorrow?"

"That I can give you," Hermione answered wrapping her arms around Ginny and pulling her into another kiss.
