Title: Molly Doesn't Wait

Molly rushed up to the girl's bedroom, she saw Hermione hugging a pillow, dark hair in disarray. "Hermione, how are you feeling?"

"I'm fine. I'm just very tired," the weak voice replied.

Molly's heart ached for the young woman. Severus Snape was a stubborn man.

Hermione was surprised feeling the heavy weight of another body lying next to her. Matronly arms closed around her.

Molly focused all her motherly magic on the sad witch. "It's hard growing up even under the best of circumstances, but you've been forced to grow up much quicker due to this God awful bloody war."
