"Of course I love you" She replied, but he knew it wasn't true. He'd heard the way she'd said it to him, and he would accept no less. He strengthened his grip on her throat,
"Do you love me? Speak the truth goddamn!"
"I am speaking the truth, you know I am! There is no one I love more than you!" She half yelled in response, her eyes pleading for him to let her go.
"If you love me then why do you sneak off? Why Hermione?" He blasted back, his grip never faltering.
"I have never lied to you! Ever! And the only time I sneak is when I'm hungry and don't want to wake you! I love you…"
"Hungry for what? You little slut! I know what you get up to behind my back!"
"Please! You're hurting me!"
"Hurt? I'll show you hurt! Crucio!"
Hermione's body wretched in pain, but she never uttered a word, never cried. She couldn't let him have that satisfaction.
This had almost become a daily ritual, the accusations; the fights. But no one ever knew; to everyone else they were the perfect couple, but on the inside all she ever felt for him was hate and distrust.
That hate and distrust was summed up by the dark mark on her wrist. He made her do it. He forced her into it. He haunted her dreams and filled up her days, yet she still didn't love him, and now it was time to prove it.
Hermione awoke on the cold kitchen floor where he'd left her after she's passed out. She grabbed a knife from the bench top as she made her way towards 'their' bedroom, silent as could possibly be.
She stopped outside the door, taking a steadying breath. She entered on tiptoe. His body was lying sprawled across the king-sized bed. It wasn't hard. All she had to do was think of the pain, the hurt, all the tears shed in secret.
She shoved the knife into his side and twisted it ruthlessly. He let out a final scream.
"Goodbye, Ron" she whispered.
A/N: hey guys! Short I know, but hey! U get that. Erm… him was Voldemort (Hermione didn't know that Ron knew about that) Ron didn't physically force Hermione into koining the dark side, it was like her last rebellion. I love Ron too, but I has to write this, it was niggling at my subconscious u know, write me write me! lol hope you liked it!
Hugs and kisses
