Hermione looked at her wand, the tip of which glowed pink for positive. She fell to the floor of the bathroom, sobs racking her body. Ron had lied to her. They had gone further that night. She had trusted him, believed him, but when the symptoms started showing, Ginny suggested checking, just to be safe. Ginny was the only one who knew about Ron and Hermione's drunken accident that "didn't happen", though now Hermione knew it actually did.
Someone opened the door, and Hermione let out a choked, "I want to be alone," but the person ignored her. As they put their arms around her, Hermione became aware that it was a guy, and she opened her eyes slightly to see black hair. Harry. She hugged him back, sobbing into his neck.
"Who's the lucky man?" he whispered tentatively, as he'd obviously seen the wand.
"R-R-R-Ron," Hermione wailed. "It was a-an acci-acci-cident! He g-got me dru-unk! He told me n-n-nothing hap-happened! He lied to m-m-me."
His hug tightened, and she clung to him as if her life depended on it. "Don't worry, Hermione, it'll be okay."
And in that moment, those few bittersweet seconds, she believed him. She believed it would be okay. She was wrong.
"I want to be alone." - ???
A/N: I can't remember where I got this from... a random TV program I watched when I babysat my mum's friend's daughter xD She fell asleep and had the remote, so I couldn't change it... hm, it might have been from Scrubs or My Name is Earl. I remember watching those that night :/ Ah, well, I know I got it from TV xD
