It started as every other day began. After waking up, Hermione quickly rolled out of bed as she was apt to do, throwing on her robe and slippers while walking to the loo. Pulling her nest of hair into a ragged tail, she sighed.
"Ron fell asleep on the couch again", she thought to herself as she made her way down the stairs. Sure enough, there he was snoring loudly. She made her way into the kitchen to put some water on for tea. Sitting down at the well worn table, she thought back to the first of many mornings like this one, finding Ron asleep on the couch instead of in bed with her. She was understanding as he does tend to work late nights as an auror, but lately she has been wondering if it is not more than that. He repeatedly told her that he did not want to disturb her sleep when he comes in late, but considering this behavior had by this time, been going on for several months, she was at her wits end.
Making up her mind, she walked back into the living room and was about to nudge his shoulder when she noticed a small bruise on his neck.
