Hello all. So… here's a new story! Since all the seven books are written in Harry's POV, we don't get to read a lot about Romione (appart from the constant bickering Harry sees). That's why I though it would be a good idea to write about some of these moments which don't appear in the books. Some of these facts have been mentioned by JK Rowling on interviews and some of them are just Head Cannons. Thanks for giving this a chance and enjoy!

Fact 1: When Hermione was being tortured by Bellatrix, it was hearing Ron's yells what kept her conscious and gave her strength to keep going on.

Hermione's P.O.V:

Pain, it was all that she could feel. Agony swept through her as Bellatrix casted, once more, the cruciatus curse on her. She knew that she wouldn't last much longer, she wanted the pain to end, it didn't matter how, she just wanted it to leave. But she wouldn't give Bellatrix the pleasure of knowing she wanted to die, no. She kept screaming, but would never, ever, beg for death. She acknowledged this was her end, her life would be given in order to save her friends although, deep down she knew, they didn't have many chances of surviving, neither Harry nor Ron. Ron, the man she loved and the one who would never know how she felt, but it didn't matter now, she was going to die.

"CRUCIO!" The mad woman said, wand aimed at Hermione's almost lifeless body. She screamed once more, feeling as if her flesh was being ripped apart to pieces, slowly and painfully. Nothing could save her now.

"HERMIONE!" She heard it, a muffled voice coming from the cellar. It was Ron. He was screaming her name, screaming to her, for her. He was her hope, her future, and she realized then, she couldn't give that up. No matter what she was going through, she would never give up, not now. She would fight until the end, for the future, for her future, for Ron.

And so, Bellatrix casted the curse again, but Hermione kept strong. Hearing his voice gave her the confidence she needed. He wasn't giving up, and nor would she. She endured the pain once more, but this time, opposing a resistance which made it fade away quickly. Again, the same word was heard, but she concentrated once more, and the pain left almost immediately.

"Ha! So you think you can stop me mudblood? Well, let's see if this makes you see, that you are not worthy of living." Bellatrix said, as she approached Hermione and knelt beside her. It all went quiet for a few seconds, and Hermione knew it was no good.

A knife, that's what was in the witch's hand, a cursed knife. She was going to kill her, and no confidence or resistance could change that. But, much to her surprise, the weapon wasn't advancing towards her neck, or heart. It was her forearm Bellatrix was aiming for. She was getting closer and Hermione tried to get away, but she was too weak, too powerless. There was nothing she could do but to endure the torture once again. And so, the torture restarted.

Pain once more. She kept screaming, trying to set herself free but there was no escape. Something was being written in her flesh and Hermione knew it would never fade, it was too painful to. But she kept on enduring it, screaming and listening to Ron's words as her arm was being scarred for life. And then, it finished.

No more pain, no more agony, no more insults being thrown at her, and no more Ron. She let a tear leave her eye and fall down her cheek as she read the word in her forearm. Mudblood. That's what she was, that's what she would always be. A worthless, mudblood know-it-all.

"Greyback, you can have her"* Bellatrix announced. Hermione's blood froze. Not Greyback, no please she though as she felt a man walking towards her. No escape now. She had gone through so much pain, just to get killed in the most agonizing and terrifying way.

Then, it all happened so fast. "Noooooooo!" She heard someone scream and spells were being thrown everywhere. A few seconds later her body was being lifted and a knife was put in her throat, supporting her weight.

"Drop your wands. Or she dies"* Bellatrix announced. Hermione heard as the wands of her friends collided with the ground and a wave of desperation took control over her mind. For the millionth time that evening she thought: This is the end.

But, as every other time that though had entered her head, there was something that always made her come back to optimism, this time it had a name: Dobby. Hermione heard as the chandelier above her fell over her, and two strong arms wrapped around her body and brought her close to the elf. She heard some voices around her but was too weak to realize what they were saying, and suddenly, there was an asphyxiation sensation around her and everything went black.

Well… so this is it. I kind of mixed how the torture scene is represented in the book and in the movie, and I know the Quotes aren't exactly what the characters say, but my books are in catalan so I didn't know what the characters exactly said in english ;). I really hope you enjoyed, and if you did please follow or favourite the story. If you know some canon facts or head canon facts please tell me. And well, last of all, please review and tell me if I did mistakes or what your thoughts about the story are, it really means a lot and makes me happy ;). (And who doesn't want to collaborate on a person's happiness?).So… yeah… that's all.

Au revoir!
