No reviews? Someone at least mention that you're reading this story so I know whether or not I should continue...Also, is this going too fast?
Hermione slowly opened her eyes with the sun shining on her face. She glanced around her room. It was big with pale blue walls and a massive king-size bed. There was a desk in the corner with a quill and ink jar where she could study and windows that stared out at the lake. It was then that she remembered. Her parents were dead and she was no longer going to have a younger brother. Her friends had abandoned her. She was all alone. It was at that moment that Seamus stuck his head in.
"Morning Mione. You feeling okay?"
"Hi Seamus. I'll be okay. I wanted to thank you for being there for me last night. We have classes today right?"
"No-Dumbledore gave you and me the day off. I'm supposed to bring you to his office when you feel ok enough. No need to thank me. I care about you."
Hermione managed a small smile.
"Harry and Ron have changed. They aren't there for me. They don't care." A tear rolled down Hermione's cheek.
Seamus lifted up her face.
"Look at me Mione."
When Hermione met Seamus' eyes, he broke into song.
When I lost faith
You believed in me
When I stumbled
You were right there
For every act of love you've done
I owe you one
There were hard times
I know we survived
Just because you stayed by my side
With all I have with all I am
I promise you all my life
Whenever the road is too long
Whenever the wind is too strong
Wherever this journey may lead to
I will be there for you
I will be there for you
Through sorrow
On the darkest night
When there's heartache
Deep down inside
Just like a prayer you will be there
And I promise you all my life
Whenever the road is too long
Whenever the wind is too strong
Wherever this journey may lead to
I will be there for you
I will be there for you
Through sorrow
On the darkest night
When there's heartache
Deep down inside
Just like a prayer you will be there
And I promise you all my life
Whenever the road is too long
Whenever the wind is too strong
Wherever this journey may lead to
I will be there for you
I will be there for you
Through sorrow
On the darkest night
When there's heartache
Deep down inside
Just like a prayer you will be there
And I promise you all my life
I'll always be there
"I Will Be There for You"

Hermione had tears running down her face and then on impulse threw her arms around Seamus, crying against his chest. Seamus awkwardly wrapped his arms around Hermione. He'd harbored a crush on her for the past two years, only hiding it by dating Parvati. He broke up with Parvati after 3 months because it wasn't fair to her, but they had become good friends since. Hermione was there for him when his sister died and every time he caused an explosion, Hermione continued to have faith in him. Now he would be there for her and he would never leave her like Harry and Ron had. Harry and Ron were going to regret the day they abandoned Hermione. He was going to bring the light back in Hermione's eyes if it was the last thing that he did.
Relunctantly, he broke the embrace and kissed Hermione on the forehead.
"Come Mione. You ready to see Dumbledore? He will have answers."
Hermione met his blue eyes and slowly nodded. Seamus took her hand and hey slowly made their way towards the gargoyle statue that would lead them to the Headmaster's quarters.
