Hermione slowly made her way back to the common room; mainly to sort her head out, and to adjust to what had just happened.
'I knew this was coming, so why does it hurt so bad?' she thought to herself, 'Its because you loved him stupid!' she answered her own thought.
She sighed and shook her head, 'come on Hermione, pull your self together, don't let him pull you down, you can do better.' she told herself.
As Hermione thought about it she almost had herself convinced that their relationship was doomed from the start, her being just a mere human and him being a vampire had failure written all over it.
She also thought back to the talk she had with Rosalie back in Hogsmeade, how she told her not to make the wrong choice and become a vampire, how she would throw all her life away if she chose wrong, 'She is right' she thought, Hermione had always dreamed of leaving Hogwarts with all her N.E.W.T's and learning to become a Healer; her dream job.
To get married and have a big white wedding, maybe then to start a family. When she met Edward she had forgotten about her dream, all she thought about was him, if Rosalie never warned her, or Edward didn't end it she would of ended up making the wrong choice, but her dream came flooding back into her and gave her the strength to carry on, to walk after to the common room; mainly because she didn't want to be alone any longer, she needed her friends.
"Hey Hermione wait up" she heard someone shout behind her making her turn around, she saw Ginny running up to her and she let out a sigh of relief and stopped to wait for her to catch up.
"Thanks for waiting Hermione, just walked Luna back to her common room, you should of come today it was really fun, I think we may have worn Harry out a bit but it was funny…" Ginny rambled on, she looked up at her best friend and saw her trying to smile.
"Hermione what's wrong?" she asked.
"What?" she said pretending to be okay, "I'm fine Ginny."
"Hermione I'm your friend, and I know when there is something wrong with you, even when nobody else can, what's happened?" she told her.
Hermione looked down and spoke to the floor, "nothing I swear I'm fine."
"It's Edward isn't it? What has happened now? What's he done?" she asked her taking hold of her wrist.
"Its over Gin, he ended it." she whispered sadly but kept back the tears.
Ginny gasped and pulled her into a hug, "Oh my god Hermione I'm so sorry, what a git! He has no idea what he has just thrown away." she told her.
"Ginny I'm fine honestly, its for the best anyway, I mean it wouldn't of worked out with him being what he is." she said pulling away and putting a small smile on her face.
Ginny looked up at her, "Are you sure?" she asked; Hermione nodded, "does this mean I can't use my famous Bat-Bogey Hex on him for hurting my best friend?"
Hermione laughed and linked her arm around hers, "No Ginny, I don't want to cause trouble."
"Shame." Ginny muttered and they walked back to the common room together.
"Wonder if Hermione is okay?" Harry wondered.
"Well I hope so, wonder if Edward will stop being a jerk and actually talk to her." Ron said picking up his bag and getting one of his essays out.
"I know, its not nice having a pissed off Hermione around." Harry joked, "which essay is that?"
"Transfiguration one, I'm sure its got to be in for tomorrow." Ron told him while searching for his ink and quill in his bag.
Harry lightly slapped his head, "Dammit, I forgot about that, I guess I should make a start on it to." he said and he reached for his bag and pulled some parchment out.
"I think you should." Ron laughed, "I bet Hermione has already done it."
"Course she has, she does all her essays on the day that they were set, I guess she is just more organised than us" Harry joked.
"I guess so." Ron said, he pulled out his transfiguration book and started to flip through the pages. "I need Hermione." he said shutting his book.
"Who needs me?" Hermione asked as she walked into the common room withGinny.
Ron and Harry turned around and smiled and said 'hey' to them, Ginny walked over to sit next to Harry and Hermione sat in the other chair next to Ron.
"So why do you need my help?" she asked again.
"This essay." Ron replied holding it up for her to see.
Hermione rolled her eyes and laughed, "You know McGonagall gave us plenty of notes on this."
Ron looked at her puzzled, "Did she? I didn't see any." he said innocently.
"Yes she did, maybe if you was paying attention you may of got some notes." she sighed at him, Ginny looked over at her and gave her a small smile.
"Well I'm sorry okay! Harry hasn't got any notes either." Ron said defensively.
"Actually Ron I did take notes, I figured I was going to need them and I guess I was right." Harry said looking up from his own work and showing Ron his notes.
Ron stared at him for a second or two and then said, "Can I use them then?"
"Well I'm kind of using them at the moment mate." he said, and Ron sighed.
Hermione and reached for her own bag, and pulled out her notes, "Here just use mine." she told him and passed them over, "Plus there is a chapter about the Principles of Re-Materialisation in the book." she also told him.
He smiled, "thank you Hermione your amazing."
"Your welcome." she turned and stared into the fire.
Half an hour had passed in silence, only the noise of a quill writing on parchment could be heard.
Ginny looked over at Hermione and sighed, she nudged Harry who looked up and she nodded towards her.
Harry looked at her with a confused look then suddenly remembered something."Hermione." Harry said.
Hermione looked up startled and turned to Harry, "yeah?" she smiled at him.
"I just remembered, how did it go with Edward?" he asked.
Ron looked up as he said this and Ginny looked at Hermione, as if she was ready to jump up and give her a hug.
Hermione fiddled around with her locket and bit her lip, "Erm…okay" she said.
"So is everything sorted out then?" Ron asked her, but she shook her head, Ron looked at her looking confused.
"What happened?" Harry asked.
Hermione sighed and looked down, "It's over." she whispered, tears flooded her eyes but she refused to let them fall, 'Stupid feelings' she thought bitterly.
"What!" Ron and Harry said, both looking gob smacked.
Harry pushed his work aside and went over to Hermione and gave her a hug, "I'm so sorry Hermione." he whispered in her ear.
She smiled and pulled away, "It's okay, not your fault Harry. Anyway its okay, its for the best, I'm okay about it." she told them.
"Yeah looks like it." Ron mumbled under his breath, Ginny heard him which caused her to give him a glare.
Harry's faced turned dark, "When I see him I swear…"
"No don't, I don't want trouble please Harry." Hermione told him.
Harry frowned and looked at Ginny, "Harry if she wouldn't let me use my Bat-Bogey Hex on him, she wont let you do anything." she told him and he smiled slightly.
"Well as long as your sure your okay." he said, putting his hand on top of hers.
Hermione smiled, "I'll cope." Harry nodded and went back to sit next to Ginny, and lightly pecked her on the cheek.
"Well I'm going to bed, I guess you better finish them off before you go." Hermione said getting up.
"Yeah I suppose." they both agreed.
"How dare you say that ALL of us are leaving?" Alice thundered
Edward glared at her, "That's because we are all leaving Alice." he told her.
Alice laughed looking stunned, "You can't make us all leave, we have our own minds."
Rosalie, Emmett and Jasper sat on the sofa watching the pair argue.
"And what happened to telling her next week when we broke up from Hogwarts?" she asked him.
"I just wanted her to know so she wouldn't suffer anymore" he told her.
Rosalie snorted, making Edward and Alice turn to look at her, "Don't kid your self Edward its not like you really cared for her anyway." she told him with a sneer.
"Shut up Rose." Edward growled.
But Alice glared at him, "What do you mean?" she asked.
"Well the main reason if she was really your mate Edward you wouldn't... no couldn't be able to leave her it would be too painful, but there you are standing here, looking angry and moody as ever." Rosalie stated.
"That's not true, I care about her so much, that much that I would leave her to enable her to have the normal human life she deserves." he told her.
"Well what ever your reasons are I'm staying, and Jasper already said he would stay with me and Edward, there is nothing you can do about it." she told him, and grabbed Jaspers hand and walked into their bedroom.
Edward growled and kicked over the little side table and also walked into his bedroom.
