Regret

Disclaimer: JK Rowling owns all

A/N Sorry if this isn't very good, i wrote it really quickly. Reviews are appreciated :D

When Hermione kissed Ron, the first thing she felt was regret. Regret that she was betraying the man she loved, regret that she had given Ron

false hope, because she could never love him as much as he loved her. She'd have to explain, after the battle. When all of this was over, she'd talk

to them both. She'd run the risk of losing them both, but it was the only thing for it. Then Hermione saw Fred. Fred, lying there, his face pale, his

eyes empty, a small smile still frozen on his face. She felt worse than she'd ever felt in her life. She couldn't apologise to him. She couldn't go to him

and beg for his forgiveness. It was Fred she loved, not Ron. But now she'd have to live with her mistake, have to tell Ron that she loved him, have to

accept that she was never going to see Fred again. She would never make him laugh, or see him smile, or throw her arms around his neck ever

again. And she would never kiss him again. And she could never tell him that she was sorry. Hermione had to live the rest of her life knowing that

she betrayed the one she loved.
