Teen Hearts

A/N I am SO sorry for the long wait! I promised myself I'd have this up before mid June but things got a little crazy and I got more than a bit distracted. There was school, and then friend drama, then girl drama etc. Well, it's here now. As always let me know if you spot any grammar mistakes.

Months had passes since the young couple discovered Hermione's pregnancy. Ginny had stepped up in light of the news and became what every girl hoped for during gestation. She supported Hermione through everything from cravings to low self-esteem. She even helped her when she felt unreasonably mad at Harry for returning the guardianship papers signed so quickly. Due to the nature of the pregnancy, no one at school would even think of taunting her for it, and the girls were grateful for one less thing they needed to worry about. Before they knew it, it was the morning of graduation and Hermione was antsy, for she was expected to make a speech.

"Oh god, speaking in front all those people!" She cried wringing her hands nervously. "All they are going to do is stare at me and my grossness! Me! The walking statistic" Hermione ranted as she paced across the floor. Ginny, who was lying on her back on the bed, looked at Hermione and cricked a half smile "God you're cute" She told Hermione lovingly. Hermione looked at her as if she had grown a second head. She snorted. "Only you could think a ranting pregnant teenager is cute" Hermione told her. Ginny was very aware that Hermione was uncomfortable with her body. The red-head however, thought she was sexy as ever. And with that, Ginny concocted an idea to get Hermione's mind off her 'gross' body and the speech she was due to make. Ginny stood, mischievous grin in place and took Hermione's hands. "Don't worry babe, I know just how to calm you down" Ginny led Hermione to the bed and had her sit on the edge. "Do you now?" The older girl asked, catching on to Ginny's intent. The red-head nodded slowly, a smirk on her face. She leant over her sitting girlfriend and captured her lips in a slow kiss. She felt Hermione bury her hands in her long fiery colored hair.

Ginny pulled away and began kissing her way up her lovers jaw. She continued her string of soft kisses up to Hermione's ear. "Be ready to see fireworks baby…" Ginny whispered. She smirked when she heard the older girl gasp at the words. She then proceeded to drop to her knees, and grasped Hermione's swollen belly in her hands. "You may think I'm crazy, but I find you incredibly sexy." Ginny said softly and began to lay soft kisses on Hermione's stomach. The wavy haired girl's breathing picked up as she felt butterflies erupt in the pit of her stomach. Ginny looked into Hermione's eyes, noticing they had darkened a few shades. Holding their eye-contact she hooked her thumbs into the waistband of Hermione's sweats and slowly removed them, along with her under things. She carelessly tossed them aside, never breaking eye contact with the girl on the bed. She grasped Hermione' ankle and placed a single soft kiss there, and did the same to the other. The older girl was gasping for breath at this point, desperately fighting the urge to let her eyes flutter closed. She eagerly spread her legs to allow Ginny to continue. The red-head smirked cockily at her lover's eagerness. "Now, lay back" Ginny instructed. Hermione obeyed quickly. "Now, all I want you to do is relax. Close your eyes and just feel" Ginny said and with her first touch, all Hermione's worries flew out the window…

Hours later, Ginny found herself sitting next to Hermione at graduation. Their earlier activities had made them slightly late, for which they received disapproving looks from McGonagall who made it clear she knew why they were late. Ginny was currently spacing out, floored how things had changed since she was sorted into Gryffindor. Her brief period of infatuation with Harry, her disaster of a first year, her falling completely in love with Hermione and everything in between. What floored the young girl the most was that within a couple months time; she would become what scared her the most. She was going to be a mother. Ginny stealthily felt for the lump in her pocket, trying not to alert Hermione to her movement. If things went well tonight, she would become something else as well. The red-head felt her stomach twist. Tonight had the potential to be the best or worst day of her life. Most graduates went to party after their graduation ceremony; Ginny being thoughtful of Hermione's condition had made other plans. Ginny was pulled from her thoughts by the feeling of Hermione standing and the younger girl watched as her girlfriend made her way to the stage to make her speech.

"Well graduates, here we are 7 or in some cases, 8 years later. For some of us, little has changed since we crossed the lake in the small boats, and for others" Hermione glanced down at her stomach and then at Ginny and finally back towards the crowd "a lot has changed. This graduating class has been through a lot, possibly more than any other in history. We've fought side by side and many of us lost people near and dear to our hearts. I hope beyond anything that with this class we all make good choices, so there isn't the need for loss in the future. That we can all stay on the light side of life, instead of straying to the dark. So, to the start of the rest of our lives, I lift my hat to you all!" With that, the graduates stood and with a big cheer threw their caps high into the air. Hermione, smiling brightly now that her speech was finished made her way back to her Ginny, hoping to get a celebratory kiss.

She was lucky that Ginny's hair was as brightly colored as it was. The mass of chaos due to families scrambling around for pictures and hugs was nearly unbearable. But she managed to spot Ginny's flash of red hair and made her way towards her. Hermione took a moment to be touched at how Ginny's eyes lit up when they landed on her before engulfing her in a hug and catching her lips in a searing kiss. "You were amazing. I adored your speech. I adore you." Ginny said when the two had parted. Hermione's cheeks flushed at the red-heads words. "WE appreciated the speech too! But it seems we come second to our daughter" a familiar voice called out. The two teens looked over to see the Weasley clan accompanied by Hermione's parents coming over to congratulate them. The mass of people was soon joined by Ron who did his round of hugs quickly before running off again to party with his friends. In the midst of all the chaos Charlie was able to sneak Ginny away for a quick chat.

"You ready?" He asked looking around to ensure no one was listening. Ginny quickly caught on to what he was speaking of and promptly turned a sickly green color. "Not especially. But I'm doing it tonight. If I don't, I may never do it" Charlie nodded at his sister, he was secretly impressed at how she much she had matured since that summer. He clapped her on the shoulder as they stealthily made their way back to the brood of family, no one the wiser. After her chat with Charlie, Ginny tried desperately to get the family to leave as soon as possible. Luckily they caught the hint and used the fireplace in the common room to return home. Ginny sighed heavily, happy that it was just her and Hermione once again. However, Hermione gave her a disapproving look. "Really Gin, you shouldn't be so rude, their your family. You just graduated. They want to celebrate with you!" Ginny chuckled "I know love. I'd just much rather celebrate with you" she gave the older girl a quick peck on the lips "Alone" Ginny finished. Hermione giggled girlishly. The red-head held her hand out to the older girl "C'mon. Got a surprise for you" Hermione took the offered hand and Ginny led her up the stairs and she stopped in front of the door to the Head Girls room. "Uh, what's so special about my door?" Hermione asked of her lover. Ginny shook her head, "Not a thing. It's what's behind it that matters" With that, the youngest Weasley opened the door to reveal what she had set-up.

Hermione gasped loudly at what had become of her bedroom. The bed had been push over to the far wall to accommodate a large open space that was naturally lit by the moon outside. There were arrays of candle's floating delicately in the air. Ginny being the cunning person she is, did some digging for what smell she wanted the candles to be. She had asked Ron what Hermione said she smelt, that day in potions when Slughorn had shown them Amortentia. She had used this information and she made candles that smelled, hopefully, exactly like the love potion did to Hermione. She had also spoken to McGonagall and was told the charm placed on the ceiling of the Great Hall and did the same to the ceiling of the bedroom, except she charmed it looked as if there was a shooting star every couple of minutes. Hermione stepped into the room, taking in the simple beauty in it all. Ginny followed her silently, shutting and locking the door behind her. Hermione turned to face the younger girl "You did all this? You are positively amazing." She said breathlessly and strode over to give Ginny a kiss of thanks. As they pulled apart Ginny gestured towards the open area in the middle of the room. "Would you like to dance with me?" She asked shyly. Hermione grinned and followed the red-head to the middle of the open area. Ginny placed her hands delicately on Hermione's waist and the two began to sway together. To the older girls surprise, as soon as the two girls dance began, soft music began to play from somewhere in the room.

"You truly are amazing Ginny Weasley" Hermione said softly as their dance/swaying continued. Ginny felt her stomach twist, knowing now was her moment and if she didn't do it now, it would be a very long time until she did. "As amazing as you perceive me, I pale in comparison to you Miss Granger" Ginny said, flattery intended in every word she spoke. Hermione look at Ginny with an amused smirk on her face. "Why Miss Weasley! I do believe you are trying to seduce me" the older girl countered, playing along with their game. "Seduce you? No that is not my intent. But I'll tell you what is, all you need to do is close your eyes" Hermione did as Ginny said and closed her eyes. Ginny stealthily checked to see if her girlfriend was peeking. Satisfied she got down on one knee before her, and produced the velvet ring box from her pocket. She opened it quietly as she could, hoping that Hermione didn't hear a thing. "Open your eyes Hermione" Ginny said, and as the older girl obeyed, Ginny saw her eyes widen in shock. "My intent Miss Granger was to get you to agree to marry me" Ginny told the girl standing before her.

Hermione was in shock. She had never been a material girl, but even she couldn't deny that the ring was beautiful. It was very elegant, much more Hermione's style. A simple white gold band with an emerald gem placed neatly in the center. After recovering from the shock, Hermione quickly answered the question she had been dreaming to hear from the woman who had her heart. "Yes! Yes yes yes a MILLION times yes!" Hermione said breathlessly and she held out her left hand. Ginny broke out into a huge grin and she carefully removed the ring from the box and placed the ring delicately onto Hermione's ring finger. The red-head stood and she was swiftly engulfed in a fierce hug by a crying pregnant teenager. "Oh god, this is real right?!" Hermione asked through her tears. Ginny chuckled, her head swimming with her happiness. "This is as real as it gets love" she told the emotional girl. Hermione moved to kiss Ginny but was interrupted. Her hand flew to her side as she doubled over. Ginny was instantly at her side. "What's wrong?" She asked, her voice laced with worry. Hermione just patted the younger girl on the shoulder "Nothing except your daughter just delivered a particularly strong kick to my rib" Hermione said. Ginny's eyes began to water at Hermione's words. Her daughter. Ginny's grin grew and she moved from cloud 9 to cloud 10.

"Well" Hermione started. "It's getting pretty late, and your daughter is making me pretty sleepy." Ginny smiled and she helped Hermione slide into the bed across the room. The red-head climbed into bed with her new Fiancé and held her against her body. One hand placed on Hermione's stomach, feeling the occasional flutter from the tiny life inside and the other placed on Hermione's chest, loving the feeling of the steady heartbeat below.

A/N I hope you enjoyed Teen Hearts! I know some of you will not like how I've decided to end it, but if I don't end it here and I continue I think I'll mess up the ending.
