~I'm really sorry that I didn't update sooner but the teachers at school thought we had lots of free time and gave us more homework than ussual. But it's vacation now and I started writing again (in between my school work) and here it is ! The third chapter! Hope you enjoy.~

Hermione walked through the barrier and stepped on platform nine and three quarters. A few metres from her stood the entire Weasley-clan,and Harry of course. The moment she came in their neighbourhood, she got engulfed in a hug by Mrs. Weasley. Hermione enjoyed the feeling of being missed but still she was glad when Molly let go of her.

"A good thing that I have some extra painkillers with me.", she thought.

Harry and Ron didn't even notice that she had arrived but she was used to that. The Golden Trio stepped on the Hogwarts Express and went to find a compartement. Once settled, Hermione took another painkiller. Thanks to the sound of the train and the effects of the painkillers, she started dosing of.

"Hermione! Hermione,wake up !",Ginny yelled.

Hermione shot up and noticed she was drenched in sweat.

"Hermione,are you okay? You were yelling and screaming in your sleep!",Ginny asked.

"Yeah,Gin. Just a bad dream. Nothing to worry about.",Hermione answered.

Ginny gave her a weird look and said,"I don't know it did seem serious to me."

"Let's just say it was a very vivid dream.",Hermione said," Anyhow I better go changing in my school robes."

Hermione snatched her robes and made her way to the girls lavatory. Once save inside,she locked the door and pulled out a knife. Since 2 years,she treasured this knife,her knife. Hermione rolled up her sleeve and put the knife against her arm. She thought of all the things Jake had called her for the past years. "Bitch,trash,slut,worthless,..." She could go on and on.

She applied some pressure to the knife and watched the blood come out. She repeated this a few times until she felt a little bit better. Then she washed the blood of her arm and the floor,changed into her robes and returned to the compartement.

During the meal nothing special happened, or at least not that she noticed. Everyone was catching up but no one talked to her or asked how her summer had been. Well, she didn't mind that because what would she answer?

"Oh just the same routine: sleeping,getting beat up,some cutting and then dancing and rinking for the rest of the evening."

Hermione laughed at herself. They would declare her crazy and lock her up in St. Mungos. I mean,come on Hermione Granger has a perfect life: a fantastic family,perfect grades at school and her best friends are Harry Potter and Ron Weasley. Some girl like her couldn't have such a big secret and certainly not such a horrible.

After the meal, Hermione went up to professor Dumbledore. She didn't see the Head Boy yet and was very curious.

"Ah Miss Granger",Professor Dumbledore said," I will show you to the dorms which you will be sharing with the Head Boy. Unfortunately, he is delayed and probably won't arrive 'till tomorrow."

Hermione squealed on the inside. Thanks to the Head Boy, she would have one evening of true peace.

~I know it isn't very long but I'll try to write a longer chapter next time. I already ask for forgiveness if it takes some time to update. Please review!

Greetings Miss System~
