This is a new idea that I have been playing around with in my head for a few days. Let me know what you think.

There's more to come..

Hermione wasn't sure if this was the brightest thing that she had ever done. She usually thinks things though about three thousand and a half times before jumping straight in. This time she just jumped.

She knew her relationship with Ron was breaking down when she didn't bother to tell him that she was staying at work later than planned, or when she wasn't bothered when he came home smelling of someone else's perfume. Ron wasn't the strongest willed person but he was stubborn and he got what he wanted. She felt happy with her self when she remembered she wanted a long engagement. It meant it gave her time to get what she wanted. Find what she wanted to find before binding herself to one person.

And then Ron came home with her. After everything that Hermione had done to keep her alive, to keep her from changing after the war. The higher prejudices she had fought against to get this woman a respectable job and keep her in it because of her condition and her Fiance of all people had to go and sleep with the cow. Ron had obviously forgotten the date.. again. Hermione had told him a week ago she would be home early today for them so they could have a quiet meal together, maybe talk about things. Well there was certainly no talking now. They'd fallen through the door giggling but quickly sobered up when they saw Hermione standing over them in the hallway. Ron quickly stands up brushing him self off and then helping her off the floor. Hermione stalked up the stairs and began packing her bags. Knowing there and then there was no way of talking him round. He could have her if he wanted to deal with the side effects of her condition. After all Mr Fenrir Greyback didn't bite lightly and Lavender only came around about a year ago.

Hermione decided she was going to muggle it for a bit. She was sure McGonagall would mind her leaving two days before the end of the School year. She sent her Otter to the professor with a message of what she was doing, walked back down the stairs and out of the door with out another word to Ron and his lady wolf. I hope you enjoy yourselves she mutters to the door before disappariting to Ginny and Harry's.

'daddy, daddy deres someone at the door!' Hermione smiled to her self as she heard James calling to his dad.

'Hermionie, what are you doing here? Wheres Ron?' Harry answered the door with James in his arms. he took one good luck at her face 'whats he done now?'

'He's happy.. he's with her..' she mutters looking down. Harry sets James down telling him to go and find his mum. James scampers off with out another word as Harry puts his arm around his friend and pulls her in to the house. By this point she can't hold it any more and bursts in to tears. Harry pulls her close and she finds comfort in the warmth of him slowing her breathing down to soft whimpers.

'would you like a cup of tea?' Harry moves them towards the sitting room.

'no.. thank you Harry I only came around to tell you what was happening' Hermione sniffed wiping her nose on her sleeve.

'surely you'll stay here for tonight?' Harry asks. 'its dark out.. Gringotts will be closed..'

'No Harry. I'm sorry' Hermione interrupts him. 'Like I said I'm just here to tell you whats going on so when He wonders what hes done and comes round you can tell him' Hermionie straighten herself up, finding a tissue and breathes deeply. 'I am going to go traveling. Europe mainly and then possibly America. But I will being doing it as a muggle will do it.'

'How Hermione?' Harry murmurs 'you don't have any money' It seemed like he had forgotten about how muggles worked.

'Harry come on..' she looks at him nonplussed. 'My parents left me some money which I have and its not like I don't know how to handle my self. Its been 3 years since the war but I haven't forgotten how to look after myself from following you around'

'your right. I'm sorry.. look just send me an owl from time to time or your otter' Harry said pulling her back in to a hug before showing her to the door. 'Ill miss you, you know 'mionie'

'Yeah I know Harry, and I will.' walking back with him. 'give my love to Ginny and I hope Molly wont be too disappointed in her sons choice of bride' Walking out the door she smiles at her friend and disapparites in to the night with a crack.
