Life is full of what-ifs but I don't like to dwell on them. At times like this though I can't help but wonder how my life could have been. It of course started with Hogwarts. I was so excited when I got my letter and my parents were so proud. I remember the train ride clearly, it was the day I met two boys who, at the time, seemed to be the biggest idiots I had ever met. Little did I know those idiots would soon become my best friends. Little did I know that the day I decided to cry in a girl's bathroom, was the day that those two idiots would come and save my life. And they've saved me so many times over, as I've done for them. We're the perfect team. The golden trio. Over the years so much has happened. I went to Hogwarts. I fell in love. We've had quite the adventures. The stone, the chamber, Sirius; each and every one so amazing.
But now as I sit in the Forest of Dean, my mind filled with memories of the day me and my parents had come here, I can't help but wonder when it all changed. Or if it ever really changed. Now that I think about it most of the dangerous things me and the boys have gotten into over the years somehow lead back to Voldemort. But I know I will not give up. I will not give in. I will fight for Harry and for Ron. I will fight for the two idiots that once saved my life.
I am Hermione Granger and I am fighting in this war because I decided to cry in a girl's bathroom, but despite how my life could have turned out, I have no regrets.
