Book One: The War
Chapter One:- The End
Hermione woke up, depressed, another day in the life of Hermione Potter. She couldn't believe how things have changed so fast it was overwhelming. She turned around and saw Harry. She loved Harry, but there was no, how do you say it, spark in their marriage. Harry always went to work and they almost never spend too much time together, it was they were more like dorm mates than a married couple. It's been only 4 yrs but it seemed more than that. Harry stirred as the rays of the morning sun hit his face. She must admit the first two years were absolutely amazing, but now things have changed. Hermione slowly got up and looked at herself in the mirror, she wasn't like before, she put on some weight, but she wasn't fat, she wasnormal. She walked into the bathroom. She came out to find Harry sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Hey you," Hermione said.
"Good morning," he said without any expression or feeling. Uh-oh, Hermione knew something was wrong, she just hoped he didn't get fired again, that meant they had to move, AGAIN.
"We're different," he started and Hermione was surprised because that's not something you say to someone first thing in the morning. "and we have different views and opinions, I just don't think it would ever work out because, well, we're different."
"Yeah I heard you the first time," Hermione said. Sure they weren't the happiest couple in the world but she didn't think it was this bad.
"I-I- I'm seeing someone else," he blurted. Hermione dropped her towel, and was stunned. He cheated on her! Suddenly questions started randomly passing through her head but she didn't dare to ask. How long was this going on? Did he sleep with her? That's a yes. How could he?
"Look Hermione," he got up and started towards her.
"DONT TOUCH ME!" Hermione yelled. "I'm guessing you want a divorce?" she asked.
"Y-Yes, but that doesn't mean we have to fight--"
"Harry, you CHEATED on me, Iam definately not going to be "ok" about this and act like nothing happened. Iam h-happy we're getting divorced, actually I am happier now than I was when we got married," she knew she didn't mean it. "just curious, can I know who it is?"
"Lavender Brown," he said. Hermione was shocked. God, he thought that slut was better than her!
"So that's what basically happened," Hermione said "then I just left and here I am" she started crying softly.
"Come on Hermione, its ok, see now you learned that he's not good enough for you," Ginny consoled her best friend.
"Yeah, I guess, but it still hurts to know that he dumped me for Lavender, the slut"
"Well, guys aren't the greatest decision makers, they don't know what they lost until its gone."
Hermione looked up at the clock. It was her favorite thing in the house, there were eight hands and each of them had one of the Weaslys face printed on it. It showed where they were. Percy was at work and so were Charlie and Bill. Ron was also at work.
"Oh yeah, Ron should be home any minute," Ginny said as she noticed Hermione looking over at their enchanted clock.
"Wait, Ron still lives with you guys?" Hermione asked, it has been a long time since Ron and her had a nice chat.
"No, but he stops by now and then, even I don't live here, come on Hermione, I'm 22 years. The only reason Iam here because I need to find a new apartment. I just finished up with traning, so mother told me to live here for a while. She has been quite lonely without any of her children in the house." Ginny explained.
"What traning?"
"Oh, I was training in Herbology, weird I know, I sent my resume to Dumbledore and well, we'll see how it goes."
"I remember when I finished my training a few years ago in Charms. I worked in Drumstrang for a couple of months but then I had to quit because of the marriage and I guess I never thought about it." Hermione said "you know, when I was married to Harry, the whole world was like a dream, nothing mattered exept that he was with me. But now, Iam starting to realise how many things I gave up for the sake of love and I am finally starting to see reality" she finished and broke down.
Ginny couldn't really say anything because she knew it wouldn't help. What can she do? She wished Harry realizes what he has lost and will never get it back again. She looked at the clock and Rons hand was coming back to home. In a second, a pop sound was heard and there was Ron. Hermione looked up.
Ron has changed. He looks more mature now. He cut off all the loose hair that he had when they were in school. His hair was well tamed unlike Harrys. He got taller and a bit muscular. All in all, he looked like a perfect bachelor.
"Hey Hermione, just the heard the news, I am soo sorry." he walked over and gave her a hug. Hermione was surprised that he was so gentle.
"Wait, how do you know?" she asked.
"Well, when Golden Boy files for a divorce, trust me, the word goes around pretty fast."
"Don't tell me they are going to commercialize this!" Hermione exclaimed. That was the last thing she needed.
"Nooo, but don't be surprised if aLOT of peoplecome to know about it," he said slowly.
"Oh! I forgot where is Mrs.Weasly?" Hermione asked.
"She's in Diagon Alley, wonder why?" Ginny said. "Alright Hermione, lets get your things upstairs. You can have Rons room. and besides I think Fred and Georges is just too messy and God knows what will blow up when you enter,"
"Okay," Hermione said. Ginny walked into the kitchen to get her stuff. She was left there with Ron, it was strange. Neither of them talked, after about five minutes of just staring and looking around. Hermione left after Ginny.
Dear Ms. Granger,
We're pleased to inform that you've been accepted into Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft and Wizardry as a Charms Professor. We've been impressed with your resume and are very excited to have you here. You will be starting your term in September 12. Furthur details will be given to you when you arrive.
Thank You,
Albus Dumbledore.
Hermione scanned through the letter again. This was great, not only because she would be back into the school that she had grown up in, it was also mean by September she would be officially divorced with Harry Potter. Its been two months and she had no idea that getting a divorce in the wizarding world was so complicated but she was glad it was over. It was hard at first, to cope with what was happening but now she has finally found a path for herself. This was great because, she wouldn't have to burden the Weasly family. The Weaslys have been more than helpful and generous but she felt guilty. At 23, Hermione Granger finally had a bright future to look forward to.
