Hermione strode down the hallway of her office. She had been called down to her boss's office to be assigned to another patient that apparently no medic witch or wizard could handle. Hermione worked at St. Mungos as a stay at home medic witch. Hermione was usually assigned to the difficult patients, who refused treatment from their assigned medic witch or wizard. The only thing Hermione knew about this patient was that he was extremely difficult, and that he refused to take any kind of tests to diagnose him or any form of potion to help his illness.
Hermione approached her boss's assistant, Martha. She looked up at Hermione and smiled.
"Hello, Miss Granger," the auburn haired girl said.
"Please, Martha I told you, you can call me Hermione," the brown haired witch said.
"Right sorry, Miss Gran- I mean Hermione." Martha corrected herself.
"Mr. Bohnman asked to see me," Hermione told Martha.
"Ah yes, you may go in now. He should be in there," Martha said.
"Thank you, Martha. have a good day," Hermione said, and began to head into Mr. Bohnman's office.
Hermione turned the brass door knob of the mahogany door, and opened it. Mr. Bohnman was at his desk writing on a very long piece of parchment. Mr. Bohnman heard his door and looked up. "Oh good you're here" Mr. Bohnman said he was dark skinned healer with brown hair and eyes. "I have another case for you, this patient seems to be exceedingly difficult" the dark skinned healer said getting out the patients file he plopped it onto his dark brown desk and opened the file. "The Patients name is Draco Malfoy" Mr. Bohnman deadpanned.
Hermione tilted her head to the side slightly, "I'm sorry, you said the patient was who?" Hermione asked to see if she heard the name correctly, because Hermione was very certain she did not hear the name 'Draco Malfoy'.
"The patients name, Miss Granger is Draco Malfoy" Mr. Bohnman repeated slightly irate for having to repeat himself.
"There must be a mistake" Hermione said "Draco Malfoy is not ill" Hermione added
"Actually, Miss Granger, he is and you have been assigned to take care of Mr. Malfoy, since he's been defiant to all of our other healers" Mr. Bohnman said "I'm never wrong Miss Granger, and I am quite offended that you think so" the wrinkles in Mr. Bohnman's forehead started to show which meant that he was getting really irritated, but Hermione didn't notice, because her mind was clouded.
"I'm sorry Mr. Bohnman, but I can't do this case" Hermione said.
"Oh really Miss Granger?" Mr. Bohnman asked raising his eyebrow. "Well too bad, you're going to be Mr. Malfoy's stay at home healer, or you're going to be fired" Mr. Bohnman warned.
Hermione realized how angry Mr. Bohnman "I'm sorry Mr Bohnman, you're right" Hermione quickly apologized.
"Of course I'm right" Mr. Bohnman said "I'm your boss" the healer finished.
Hermione nodded slightly flushed with embarrassment, and Mr. Bohnman cleared his throat "Now, I've already transferred all of your things to Malfoy manor including potions and medicines you may need as well as clothing" Mr. Bohnman said "I would highly suggest that you start heading to Malfoy manor now" Mr. Bohnman paused "Actually I'm telling you to start heading to Malfoy manor" Mr. Bohnman finished.
Hermione nodded, and got up out of her seat to head over to Malfoy manor, as she left Mr. Bohnman's office she heard him call out "Good luck, Miss Granger," and she would definitely need it. She headed to the floo network, Hermione paused at the fireplace for a moment and took out a picture she kept inside her robe pocket she looked at the picture that Fred and George had taken right after the war she was with Ron and Harry, and they were sadly smiling with cuts and bruises on their faces.
It was right after the war at Hogwarts Harry, Ron, and Hermione were in the great hall still pretty banged up from the battle they had just come out of. Fred and George saw the trio huddled together comforting Harry over the death of Ginny.
Fred and George had come over to see how well Harry was taking Ginny's death, but Harry was still crying his heart out. "I should have stayed with her" Harry sobbed putting his head in his hands.
Fred and George looked at each other and pulled out their camera, "smile" they both said at once and the trio looked up and gave the twins strained smiles Fred snapped the picture of them, then the twins decided it would be best if they leave them alone.
Later that day Ron and Hermione were looking for Harry around the Hogwarts grounds, or at least what was left of Hogwarts. They walked over hand in hand to where Hagrids house used to be. In place of it was just debris, they called out for Harry. They looked around, but they couldn't find the raven haired boy anywhere, then out of nowhere two death eaters appear one grabbing Hermione and the other grabbing Ron, Hermione screamed, then one of the death eaters put her under a silencing charm the other death eater held Ron back.
"Let her go!" Ron yelled.
The death eater holding Ron back chuckled "not a chance, blood traitor one of you must pay for the dark lords death" the death eater holding Ron said.
"The question is who?" The death eater holding Hermione said poking his wand into her neck, Hermione wriggled against the death eater to try to free herself, but it didn't work he only made his grip on her tighter which made her whimper.
"Don't hurt her! Hurt me instead!" Ron yelled
"Ron! No!" Hermione tried to yell, but her words were noiseless, and her eyes widened in pure utter terror.
Then there was silence, and Hermione's heart started to beat so hard and fast she thought it would pop out of her chest.
"Sectumsempra!" One of the death eaters said and Ron fell to the ground, then both the death eaters were gone and so was the silencing charm that was put on Hermione.
"Ron!" Hermione yelled stumbling to her feet next to Ron, and tears starting to spill out of her eyes "I'll go get some help!" Hermione said starting to get up.
Ron grabbed her wrist, "No, Mione' please don't leave me, I'll be dead by the time you get back."
"No, you won't, I just need to get some help I'll be right back" Hermione started to sob.
"Please, Mione'" Ron pleaded "I'm going to die whether you get help or not, and I don't want to die alone"
Hermione leaned down next to Ron "I love you Ron" Hermione choked out as she sobbed.
"I love you too, Mione'" Ron said hoarsely "don't cry Mione' it'll be okay"
"No, no it won't not without you" Hermione said holding Ron's hand tightly.
"Don't be so daft, you'll find someone that will love you just as much as I do" Ron told Hermione.
"Oh Ron" she said her voice shaking.
"Kiss me Mione'" Ron said, and Hermione moved closer to the dying ginger, and their lips met, Ron put his hand on the back of Hermione's neck lightly, and for a couple of fleeting moments they kissed, then the small grip that Ron had on the back of Hermione's neck had gone limp and his arm fell to the ground with a thump. Hermione pulled away and as Ron's chest rose for one last time he looked at her the light in his eyes slowly fleeting "I love you, Hermione Granger, and I always will." And those were Ronald Weasley's last words.
Hermione's eyes began to water as she looked at the photograph that she kept with her wherever she went, she quickly put it back in her pocket and took in a deep breath then she entered into the floo network, and disappeared in the green flames.
