Alright I have finally finished typing this out, I hope you all like it!

Warning though, major fluff factor!

As I lay in the dark solitude of my room, sleep could not find me. After an hour of restlessness, I knew it was no use. I would not sleep tonight.

I hastily dressed, having made up my mind. I could not wait till morning. I had to tell Violette of my feelings, and I would tonight.

Quietly I made my way to the night air. The cool relief welcomed me as I closed the door behind me. Then I ran.

I ran though the fields, then to the apple orchards that bordered our land.

As I neared Violette's house I ran faster still. I could not feel the sweat in my eyes, or the muscles pushing their limit under my skin. My only feeling was the need to see her.

Around the back of the house Violette's window was nearly blocked by branches of the old oak beside it. I considered briefly climbing the branches, but hesitated. I did not want to frighten her, appearing as a ghost in the window.

Instead I picked up a nearby pebble. The light stone softly hit the window, and I patiently waited. A minute passed and I threw several more. This caused a stir.

The window was pulled open fiercely as Violette stuck her head out and looked about. She gasped when her eyes made out my form. "Grayson Abbot, what on earth are you doing here?"

Her beautiful voice made me smile, despite the anger in her hushed tone.

"I am sorry to wake you, but I need to speak with you. I can not wait."

Thought it was quiet, I heard her sigh in defeat. "Stay put, I will be down in a moment."

I paced below the tree as I waited. Suddenly fear and anxiety washed through my body. I had come here so hurriedly, but what was I to say? I wanted my words to be perfect for this angel.

Violette approached in the moonlight. Her long sandy hair fell in shiny waves. I could clearly make out the arms that were crossed over her flowing white robe. The closer she came, the faster my heart began to beat.

"Now what is this important matter you had to wake me for?" Though her mouth frowned, I saw a smile hidden in her blue eyes. This gave me strength.

Staring into her eyes I began, "Violette, you know for years you have been like family for me. I cherish your opinion, and have a great respect for you. Violette, you are my dearest friend. For these reasons I come here tonight. Because, I think too highly of you not to be forthright."

Her full lips parted then to speak, but no words came out. Worry spread through her expression as her arms feel from their defiant position to her sides.

I smiled reassuringly and continued, "But it is not those reasons alone that I am here."

I inhaled deeply and placed my hand on her shoulder, "I am here because I hate to be distanced from you, because I would do anything to make you happy. Violette, I am here to tell you that you an angel on Earth, and I love you."

Those lips parted again, and again silence ensued. Her small frame was shaking slightly.

"Violette, are you alright?" Surely, she was horrified at my confessions. I began pulling away. Her gaze bore into the ground as rejection hit me. Still, she did not speak.

"I am sorry; I should not have come here tonight."

To my great surprise at my words Violette burst into tears! "You are awful Grayson! This is the most heartless, vile thing you could do!"

I stared in shock at her words. I was so heartbroken I could only watch her as she continued.

"Such a prank! You know how I have always felt for you, and you, you who I thought my dearest friend, you mock me!"

I did not understand why she thought it a joke. Had my words been in a teasing tone? Though confused I could not help but smile. This beauty had not rejected me as I believed, there was hope.

"See, even now you smile as I cry! I hate you Grayson, I hate you!" Violette began to run back inside, but I could not have that. I ran swiftly to her side, and embraced her.

Though she fought I pulled her close to me. Her arms thrashed into my chest, as my lips softly spoke to her hair, "Now, sweet Violette it is you who is silly. I love you; there is no mockery in my words. I could never joke of my affection towards you. Please, say you believe me?"

Her arms gave up their fight as she looked up at me. Her beautiful tear streaked face shone in the night. "You mean it? You love a child like me? Do you not find me immature and trivial?"

I laughed loudly at the insecurities of her words. Stroking her silken hair I answered, "Violette, I had never seen you as immature. And to me, you were never trivial. I have always loved you. It had taken being apart from you to realize how much so."

Finally a smile broke through her tears as she began to laugh. "Then it is I who am silly indeed. I almost banished you, my love."

The laughter faded as those words escaped her lips, making my heart swell. I reached to her face, and wiped away her tears.

I did then what I had been dreaming of all evening. Under the moonlight I stared into the eyes of the woman I loved, and lowered my face till our noses touched. She boldly wrapped her hand in my hair, and I could wait no longer. I pulled her lips to mine. Her eyes went wide, and then closed along with mine. Her lips were softer than the petals of a rose. I moved my own softly on her; I felt fire moving through my body. I breathlessly pulled away before I was too tempted to left my passion further our kiss.

Violette slowly opened her eyes, and stared in wonder upon my face. There was a smile building as she spoke. "I love you."

My smile mimicked her own as I held her tight to my chest. We stayed this way for longer than I knew.

"I have to go home." I told her sadly. She nodded her head in agreement.

Holding her small waist to me I escorted Violette to the back porch. I held her close once more before pulling away.

"Will I see you tomorrow?" She asked, reaching for my hand. How I would love to never have to leave her.

I reached her hand to my lips, and gently kissed her fingers. "Till tomorrow."

With my promise I turned and headed home. My heart was so full I was not sure it would not burst. I could not wait for tomorrow or the many days after with Violette.
