Prologue-
Chapter 1- Her Life
Cambridge- 30th August 1996
Hermione Granger sat on her desk at her parents house, reading a letter from her best friend Harry Potter, tears sliding down her cheeks as she read it.
Dear Hermione,
First off all How are you Hermione? It's been too long since I have last seen you, spending the summer at the Burrow has been really painful Hermione, Molly is either always crying or is really quiet for days on end, Arthur seems really old I don't know if I have seen him this sad ever, Fred and George are not like their usual selves but I think working at their new shop helps them a lot, Bill and Charlie are working non-stop for the order, Percy returned home after you know and is staying here he helps Molly a lot, Ginny well, let's just say she is the only thing keeping me sane.
We got together Hermione few days after the funeral Ginny and me, we are coming today to get you Hermione Dumbledore has some kind of plan to keep your parents safe, Neville's been coming around a lot with Luna, they took it pretty hard too, Luna is her usual dreamy self but she thinks he will return Hermione, but how can he, we found his wand right Hermione everything else was blown up in that ,I saw the room Hermione with my own eyes.
It's not the same without him here Hermione, I couldn't bring myself to sleep in his room so I've been in Charlie's room since, it's too hard too think about him, the burrow is not the same, I'm not the same without him Hermione.
I'll come today with few other order members, don't worry it will all be okay I'll kill that fucker who took him from me, I'm here for you, you are the only family I have now.
Love Harry,
P.S- Ginny sends her love says she has to tell you something.
oo000ooo
Hermione folded the letter, she was openly weeping now, it was too hard to forget him, tomorrow she had to go back to Hogwarts for the first time without him, she had always seemed to say wrong things when he was concerned, when he made prefect he was so happy and what had she done, she was shocked that Harry didn't made it, but he didn't know that she was far more flustered thinking about all those moments alone they would spend on prefect rounds.
she had apologized to him afterwards but was it enough and now she would never get a second chance to tell him how she really felt about him because he was gone he had left her alone to fight in a war without the hope of any future with him.
She gasped for air and sobbed harder clutching Harry's letter to her chest when she heard her mum knocked on the door,
"Hermione dear are you all right, I'm coming in okay" her mother's soft voice came soon followed by her.
Hermione collapsed in her mother's arms sobbing heavily "I miss him mum, it hurts so much" Hermione said between sobs
"It will be okay Hermione, Dumbledore sent us a letter said they are coming today" her mother said
Hermione nodded her head pulling away from her mother wiping the tears, she had told everything to her parents before they left for his funeral, they had been worried for her but Dumbledore talked to them and they understood what was happening,
"I loved him" Hermione said simply, her mother smiled at her "I know dear, he is in a good place now" her mother said
"I really don't know mum it doesn't feel real to me" Hermione said
"It's okay to feel that way but it's been two months Hermione you have to accept it" her mother reasoned
"I know mum but I can't, I just can't forget him like that" Hermione said tears threatening to fall again
"Oh no dear I didn't mean that, he would want you to be happy Hermione" her mother said
She nodded feeling really sad it physically hurt to think about him not being here, it was two months since he died at the battle at ministries the funeral was held soon after her parents had been really shocked at the news, she remembered that they didn't have a body to bury, his wand was the last remaining piece of him, Harry had given her a piece of his wand which she wore ever since as a necklace.
She clutched the wand piece hanging around her neck, she would always carry him with her in the war that was inevitable she would fight right beside Harry because that's what he would've wanted, that's what he believed in and she would do everything in her power to help bring Voldemort down.

Harry was standing outside the Granger's house along with Neville longbottom, Remus lupin, his Godfather Sirius black and Albus Dumbledore himself.
Harry rang the bell and after a few moments Hermione's mom came out
"Hello Mrs Granger, nice to meet you" Harry said shaking her hand
"Nice to meet you too dear come in, I'll call Hermione down" said
The went into the living room
Dumbledore greeted Hermione's dad and soon they were all sat in the living room, Hermione came running down from her room followed by her mother Harry got up from his seat and hugged Hermione tightly "I missed you" she said into his shoulder, "its okay Hermione I'm here now" Harry said.
Hermione didn't seem to notice any of the conversation between her parents and Dumbledore, something about fidelius charm caught her attention.
"Neville here has volunteered to be your secret keeper" Dumbledore said gesturing towards Neville who blushed as everyone turned to look at him
Hermione got up and hugged Neville "thank you, Neville it really means a lot to me" Hermione said to him
Neville rubbed the back of his neck self consciously "he would have volunteered you know if he was here, he would've done it " Neville said his voice shook at the memories, how they had beat Malfoy in their first year
"he told me to stand up for myself, Hermione that's what I'm doing" Neville Said rubbing his eyes to stop the tears.
Hermione already had tears in her eyes she hugged Neville again "I know Neville, but thank you for doing this he would be proud" Hermione said smiling at the boy that wasn't shy anymore but had a determined look in his eyes, the boy who would stand up for himself and his friends in the up coming war.
Dumbledore performed the charm on Hermione's house with Neville while she packed up her things, Harry helped her but they Mostly packed in silence and only talked about how Ginny and his new relationship was.
Hermione said Goodbye to both her parents, promising to return for Christmas, The Granger's invited all her friends over their house for Christmas.
Soon they were all standing in front of the burrow, the air around the house was thick and dense it felt more like Grimmauld place, the whole order was coming and going from the burrow carrying out missions gathering Intel.
Hermione said her Hello's to the Weasley's and slipped out of the house, with heavy footsteps she reached the orchard where the Wesley kids used to play quidditch, near the small flower garden was a sole grave stone Hermione sat down on her knees tracing the familiar engraving on the grave stone, tears slid down her cheeks as she read,
Ronald Billius Weasely
1980-1996
Friend, Son, Brother, Life
Always loved
The life bit was added by Hermione, she knew he would've rolled his eyes at the word associated with him, but he was her life, he was the spark of life in the trio and now that he wasn't there anymore she knew her life was Lost.
