Chapter 1: Farewell (Hermione's POV)
"It was the graduation of 7th years at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was an important event. It was the one time of the year that parents were in the castle and the last step in education for the graduating class. For me, this was a time for celebration over 8 years I had worked hard, been a prefect, head girl, a complete and utter rule breaker and an important factor in defeating the dark lord. Though my parents were nowhere to be seen I still had my family- my best friend, Harry James Potter and my boyfriend Ronald Bilius Weasley. I listened to the excited chatter that was racing around the Great Hall as students shuffled around to get into their lines, it was finally time.
"Abbott, Hannah" Our Headmistress McGonagall called as our graduation started. One by one student went up to receive their diplomas along with parting words from the faculty. After the graduation ceremony was over people started moving around, talking to friends, family, and professors about their next step now that their time at Hogwarts was over. "Hey Hermione, We need to talk," Ron said as he walked over to me.
"Hey Hermione, We need to talk," Ron said as he walked over to me.
"Listen well, umm… Bloody Hell… I don't even know how to say this now I mean I had it all planned out before but now poof, it's gone!" Ron replied. "Ron, what are you trying to say?" I asked, my heart fluttering, cheeks flushed, breathing quicker and hopes high.
"Ron, what are you trying to say?" I asked, my heart fluttering, cheeks flushed, breathing quicker and hopes high.
"Well, you see now that we've graduated.I think that we should break up, I mean now that there is no school and all.." Ron replied.
"Do you want to take a break, Ron? Is that it?" I asked, my hopes of him proposing crashing down.
"What Ron is trying to say Hermione is that now we have graduated and Voldemort is dead we have no use for you, all you are is an annoying know it all!" Harry said coldly as he passed with a sneer on his face.
"Ron?" I asked meekly, not wanting to believe what Harry, my so called best friend had just said.
"It's true Hermione, all you are is brains and we don't need or want to hang out with you anymore all you were good for was homework," Ron explained before walking away and joining the sea of people with red hair,
"Oh and before I forget don't bother coming around to the burrow it was unanimous decision to get rid of you," Ron told me. /span/p
"Farewell, Hermione," I barely heard the voice as heartbreak rang through my brains, my last piece of family gone. I was frozen, no thought moving through my mind, only the ever-growing sadness was processed by my 'know it all brain'.
"Can you believe that stupid mudblood actually thought you would propose to her, I mean why would you do that she is only a mudblood?" Ginny sneered. I couldn't stay here I had to get away I ran as fast as my feet could carry me. I just apparated to hell knows where the last thing I remembered before I blacked out was a sharp pain in my neck and the wind knocked out of me.
