Chapter 21.
Harry and Hermione returned to their suite, "Harry, I'm sorry, talk to me please," Hermione pleaded. She could feel her husband's anger rolling off him. Harry ignored her pleas and grabbed a pillow and blanket and crashed on the couch by the fire.
Hermione couldn't feel Harry's presence in her head. She felt horrible, she went to their bedroom, tears streaming from her eyes. She reached into her trunk and pulled out a mirror.
"Mom." Hermione sobbed, her mother appeared in the mirror. "Hermione? What's the matter humming bird?"
Hermione sobbed "I made Harry really angry with me, he won't talk to me and i can't feel him through our bond."
Hermione's mother was surprised to say the least. "Hermione, tell me what happened?"
"I...I... volunteered him to tutor students in defense class because he's brilliant in that class. He didn't want to but I kinda ignored what he said and went along with my idea. But I only did it because Harry is the obvious choice."
Emma thought about it "Hermione, I can see the logic behind what you did, but did you consult Harry before volunteering him?"
Hermione remained silent and Emma gave her a look "From what Remus and Sirius tell me, he never had any choices of his own in his life. So when you made the choice for him without his input you did what others have done to him his whole life."
Hermione looked at her mother and frowned. Emma frowned "Listen Humming bird, the reason your father and I worked so well was because we valued each other's input. Give Harry some time and he will come around, now it's getting late go to bed."
Hermione nodded and said good night to her mother.
Weeks passed and Harry was still ignoring her, keeping the bond link closed. Hermione began feeling sick, she was pale and barely slept.
Neville and Susan had seen her deteriorate and were becoming worried. Luna walked by them as they were discussing it and she was perplexed by the two. "What's the matter?" Neville looked at Luna "Harry and Hermione still aren't talking."
Luna looked at Hermione as she left the great hall and saw she was looking awful. "How long have they been separated?"
"About a couple weeks now, Hermione is really upset Harry won't talk to her."
Luna looked at Neville and Susan. "That's unfortunate, I'm surprised they lasted so long, of course I guess it's because they are descendants of two of the founders. They can't keep this up though or they will get sick or worse."
Fearing for their friends, Neville and Susan went to find them.
Luna walked to the Ravenclaw table. Suddenly she got a daydreaming look on her face, followed by a brief frown. She then got up and collected her things and walked towards the potions class room.
Susan went to find Hermione, she looked in the library and found Hermione with a stack of books, she had dark circles under her eyes.
Susan walked over to her "Hermione."
Hermione turned to Susan and smiled weakly "Hello Sus-" Hermione fell at the table she was sitting at.
Susan panicked and pulled out her mirror.
Neville went to talk to Harry, he couldn't find Harry in Gryffindor tower or in the great hall. He thought of other places and went to check by the black lake. Sure enough, Neville found him there.
"Come here often?" Neville said. Harry remained silent and didn't move.
Neville gathered his Gryffindor courage. "Harry, um, we need to talk. Hermione doesn't look well, you're hurting her by not talking to her and she's worried about you."
Harry turned and Neville paled under Harry's stare but he kept going, his friends needed him. "You two need to work things out, you can't keep this up."
"Look I'm sorry Neville, but Hermione shouldn't have given that suggestion to McGonagall without even asking me."
Neville stepped forward, "No, she shouldn't have, but does that give you the right to lash out at her and hurt her for two weeks? She only thought she was doing what was best for you and everyone else. I thought you loved her?"
Harry was about to say something, but frowned. Neville's word made him realise how badly he had been treating Hermione. He had been so wrapped up in his own hurt, he had completely ignored the one he loved. Seeing how he had been acting sickened him. He looked back to Neville "We have to find Hermione, I have to talk to her." Neville smiled and Harry heard someone saying his name he reached into his pocket pulling out a mirror.
Susan appeared "Harry come quick it's Hermione, she's in the infirmary." Fearing the worst, Harry ran back to the castle with Neville following close behind him.
They made it to the infirmary and saw Susan outside. "She's in here." Susan said pointing to the door. Harry ran past Susan and Neville caught up to Susan panting.
Harry ran in and saw Hermione on the hospital bed. "Hermione!" Harry said running to her side. He grabbed her hand 'Mione please, please be ok. I'm sorry ignored you. I was just angry and-" Harry began tearing up.
'I'm sorry too.' Harry opened his eyes and saw Hermione staring back at him with tears in her own eyes. 'I should have asked you before talking to McGonagall.'
Harry wrapped his arms around her. They both started regaining color slowly. Hermione still felt weak but was slowly feeling better.
Madame Pomfrey walked in, seeing the bonded couple. She walked over to them "Mrs. Potter your looking much better. Mr. Potter, soul bonds are a wonderful thing but it is just what it says, a bond. You two are bound by the bond, if it broke I hate to imagine what would have happened. I suggest you both spend the rest of the day rebuilding your bond, and don't be away from each other more than necessary."
Harry nodded and he helped his wife to her feet. 'Come on, we are spending the rest of the day in the suite and not leaving until I have worshiped every part of you.'
Hermione blushed at Harry's words, "Good thing there are no classes tomorrow."
Luna opened the door and saw Ginny at a cauldron. "Ginny what are you doing?"
Ginny was looking over the book carefully. She looked at Luna "I'm putting everything right, that slag put some spell on my Harry and I'm going to make everything right again."
She pulled out a vial from her robe and dipped it into the cauldron. Luna smelled the air and realised the smell.
"Ginny, Hermione didn't put a spell on Harry. Your potion won't work, now stop or I'll tell Professor McGonagall."
Ginny frowned and began turning a familiar shade of Weasley red. Luna knew Ginny was a fire cracker and reached for her wand. Ginny raised her wand at Luna "I can't let you do that Luna, Stu-"
"Stupefy", Ginny fell to ground stunned, Luna looked at see Ron holding his wand. He looked at Luna who was surprised. "Ronald?"
"You alright?" Ron said looking at Luna.
Luna nodded "Thank you, Ronald, I was surprised Ginny was really going to curse me."
Ron nodded."We better get a teacher, I'll tell them what I saw."
Luna nodded and Ron went to find a teacher, leaving Luna alone with Ginny. She smiled having not seen Ron come to her and it was a great surprise.
