Figuring Things Out
Hermione has been really think about things for the last couple of weeks while she has been staying at the Zabini's Mansion. She has been legally taken in by both of the families whereas no matter if she really marries into the family she will always be protected by them, and even though she had liked being there she had let them know she was going to stay a couple of weeks to figure stuff out for herself. She let them know she was going some place safe. Hermione had reached out to Heather and had gotten a place at a mix of muggle and magical hotel that was not only a resort and spa it was a place of healing and getting yourself back together. She had only really let Narcissa, Sofia, Heather, Ginny, and Headmistress McGonagal know where she was in case it took a longer time. "How is it going today?" Heather said quietly as she looked at Hermione as she sat in her work out pants and her sports bra. "It is going better I haven't hurt myself in the last two weeks and I haven't done anything stupid." Hermione said quietly as she stretched out her muscles. "Well, it seems like you are doing better, however, I am still worried that when you leave it is going to get worse." Heather said as she looked at her and the notes of what they had been talking over. "I have to go back eventually maybe, I just need to take more time to figure it out" Hermione started and looked at her and then out the window and continued, "I honestly feel as if the world is crashing around me when I am at the school." Hermione sighed and then looked at her, "Maybe it is time for a new change again." She finished with as she looked at Heather. "What do you mean by a new change?" Heather looked at her with an interested spark in her eye as she asked. "I think I am going to get my life set up here and with the actual company, they want me to branch off and start my own branch just for columnists that want to do anonymous work." Hermione said as she looked at her and then started her walk on the treadmill. "I am going to change the hair up and the look it is time for that and I am going to change my routine so that it is more beneficial to my health." Hermione finished as she looked at her. "I want you to make a list and really check off these things." Heather started as she looked at her, "You have a good plan you just need to follow through and finish it."Hermione nodded as she looked at her and then finished her walk up not realizing it had been fifteen minutes since she had started. "I will and I will make sure that you receive it so I do not fail at it." She said as she smiled and got up and gave Heather a hug. "Thank you for never giving up on me." She said as she looked at her and smiled. "I will see you next week Hermione." Heather said as she looked at her. They walked out of the room and she went into the gym and continued her work out, today was one of the days that she was able to leave and really get some things in her life together. She finished up her work out and went to her room which was a penthouse that is always specifically reserved for her in her time of need. This was not her first trip to this resort before. She walked into her and screamed! Her room was trashed, everything was destroyed, and there was a threat all over the walls and there was a black orb that came hurtling towards her and she felt this push of energy coming off of her as she felt the protection from the families. It didn't stop the orb completely and it still attack her and set her into the dark abyss that was "No I didn't do it!" Hermione screamed as she looked at Ron and felt herself get pushed backwards and fell onto a bed. Ron got on top of her and bound her hands to her back and the head board. She screamed as loud as she could trying to get attention from someone. She honestly was scared out of her life as she tried to kick and get out from underneath him. "No, no my pet you are not going anywhere I am going to enjoy this." Ron cackled as he took his knife out and ran it over her skin. "Please Ron don't.." was all Hermione got out as he set a silencing over her so no one could hear her screams. Ron then put a muffliato over the room so that no one could even come and save her. Ron then started cutting off her clothes just one thing at a time. She shook and honestly cried out and tried to kick him off of her. She literally kept kicking and screaming and trying to use wandless magic as he started cutting in her skin. He carved words into her skin such as whore, slut, mine, and more things. He casts curses on her that just made her scream in more agony and was doing damages to her internally and externally. At this point Hermione had passed out and Ron had finished having his way with her. Time flashed forward two years later before she had gone to find her family and met Blaise. "I can't be" whimpered as she wrapped her arms around herself. She had finally just gotten used to covering up all her scars that Ron had left on her. Hermione got her phone out and texted her friend that she had been helping with the drug trade she had been slowly getting into, I need my way out. She didn't get a response she knew something was wrong. She heard banging coming from downstairs and she walked down and saw her friend on the floor and Ron beating him half to death. "Ron stop! What are you doing!" Hermione screamed as she looked at him and tried to stop him. Ron looked at her and grabbed her by her throat and pulled her to him. "I am not letting him take you." Ron said as he bite into her shoulder and Hermione screamed. "Your message and I know you have been meeting him." Hermione shudder as she tried to cave into herself. "You are not leaving me." Ron whispered violently into her ear. He punched her hard into her stomach and she collapsed. Ron didn't know what to do she was bleeding everywhere. He took her to the hospital and she was taken right into surgery into a secured room. Hermione eyes fluttered open as she screamed out and felt like her body as being pulled apart and torn. She was vaguely able to see people in the room. She was not sure what she was going to do and all the sudden she was taken right back into it. She wasn't seeing anything anymore she was feeling it and hearing it. The Aurors came and was trying to get the black orb off of her and doing everything that they can to take care of her. They even called in the Order to see if there was anything else that could be done. The finally cast a freezing spell that seemed to have affect the orb, they then were pulling it off of her and you could hear the loud scream possible that came out of Hermione's mouth. Headmistress sighed as she looked at her and picked her up. "I will take her to the hospital and set her up in a wing that both the Zabini's and the Malfoy's have set up for this reason." Headmistress stated as they were transported to the hospital and she was put into their care. This was when they saw the full extent to what has happened to her. The doctors and nurses at St. Mungos saw how she was almost skin and bones and she had words, spells, curses, and more things beyond dark marks have been put all over her. They honestly had no idea how bad it was on her and done to her by Ron, the men she was captive by, the men who are now trying to get her, and the things that she has done to herself. Hermione woke up and sat up straight as she looked around and fell back down onto her bed. "I guess this is now the time where I am fully going to be getting the healing that I need." She whispered as she looked around her and honestly was not sure what she was going to do. She had lost a lot of weight and at this point she was not going to be able to leave the hospital for a month.
Hermione was in her room and she was just not allowing anyone, but the nurses in because she was not ready to see anyone or tell anyone about what is going on in her life. She was worried that there was going to be more backlash then there was going to be any positivity so far. Where are you? Was the first text message she received from Austin as she sighed and looked up at the ceiling. It finally all got caught up to me, I am hospitalized and won't be out for a month most likely. Hermione sent back to him as she started breaking down crying. She held onto herself and she just shook hearing the voices in her head and just feeling lost, alone, and just tired of even wanting to be here. She started punching at the bed and punching the wall till she got it out. She was screaming out all the pain and frustration that she had. She literally felt a burst of magic come from her that set off all the alarms in her room. She was having a panic attack mixed in with all of these feelings and her body was convulsing as she just attacked the bed the walls. None of the doctors were going to go inside of her room yet till she calmed down. They knew with the magical outburst that was coming from the panic attack/the amount of stress she was unloading was not going to be easy to get back to normal for them. Though this was news to certain onlookers that were watching her. Some of the men from the underground and the elite members were watching through the orbs and everything that was able to be seen. So they could watch as she tore her room apart, and the worst part of it all they were all getting off to watching her act like this to seeing her body being destroyed. To a normal person this was a sick sight to see even the doctors would say that, however, to them it was the most erotic way for them to see and get off to the pain, the misery, and everything that she had been through. Finally when she had started to calm down the nurses and the doctors went in to check on her and make sure that she was ok. Though the member that was watching couldn't get into the room, however, they were still hanging around. "Do you need something?" a nurse questioned him and the member stalled and looked around, "I was lost and trying to find the way out." He said as he looked at her up and down, "Well the elevator and the way out is that way," the nurse started as she took her wand out and then continued "I'll be happy to show you the way out." Before the man even got to say thank you he was kicked out with a spell that not only sent him out, however, it sent him to the Aurors office with a note stating This mysterious man was watching outside the room of Hermione Granger and was acting very suspiciously. The Aurors got to him before he could escape and was taken down to questioning.
The doctor looked at her and said, "Are you okay Miss Granger?" Hermione nodded as she looked at her doctor. "I am just I don't know what came over me, I felt fine I got a message and just having to admit where I was just was a breaking point for me." Hermione whispered as she looked at her doctor. "I can understand that, when I was a younger, I went through the same thing and now I have dedicated my life to helping young women get through things such as this." She said as she looked at her. "I would liked to offer you a special treatment regimen that I have been working on," she continued as she looked at her and then looked at her chart "I want to put you on a proper diet, exercise, and a regimen for making sure that you are staying on track and you will be checking into the hospital after you are released every week." Hermione nodded as she looked at her doctor and said, "I will accept these terms and I am willing to do this to feel better." The doctor, Miss Topaz, smiled and handed over a paper to sign as a release. Miss Topaz looked at her and said, "Whatever we have talked about will be sealed and bound to us, no one will know and no one will find out. I take pride in helping my patients and they're secrecy of what is going on is kept in a very place where no one but me and you can see for only your sessions." Hermione nodded as she looked at her she must have been talking about a pensieve. "Get some rest and alert us if you feel any type of panic attack or just an emotional attack in general is starting again, so we can work on finding the trigger to help find a way to stop it." Miss Topaz stated as she got up off the bed and walked towards the door. Hermione nodded as she laid back down in her bed as she looked at herself and sighed. "We also have started giving you more of a liquid diet as well as having it given to you through an IV to start getting you to a healthier weight." Miss Topaz continued as she looked at her and went to open the door. "I hope you get a good night sleep Miss Granger and feel better soon." Miss Topaz finished as she left the room so that Hermione could get some sleep.
It had been almost three weeks since Hermione and Miss Topaz had started working together so that she can be on a better healthier version of herself. She had learned a lot of lessons to work on helping retrain her brain so that she is able to feel better and she had been working on how to act in a healthier way and react in a healthier way. She had also been doing research on how to help the girls get better through out the time that she has not been in Hogwarts. She has been getting updates and it seems like a few girls have been going missing and that there have been some strange things happening. Blaise and Draco have been miserable without her though Draco has been dating someone which made her smile, while Blaise has just been making sure Crooshanks was okay and that no one found out where her room is. Hermione had finally gotten back to her actual weight that she should have been. She had been working on her branch of the business that she had agreed and signed too and was now finding people that are willing to work for her. She has been getting a lot of requests and been doing the meetings as she can. Ginny was one of the girls working for her and now was her second in charge so she was handling a lot of the stuff. She smiled as she was looking at everything and was really getting the hang on the things that she was working for. Ginny was the only other person that really knows where she is and has been helping her get through treatment that she was in. Hermione looked at Miss Topaz and smiled, "Today is my day to get my actual wardrobe that will fit me and that I will be a new me." Hermione said as she looked at her. Hermione was at the weight that she needed to be 140 pounds. She still had DDs though they were pushing to DDDs, and she smiled as she looked at herself. She had her curve and she was now fit and she was now a size 8. She had never really looked at herself and fully appreciated herself. "Yes, it is, Miss Weasley is outside and will take you by portkey to where you will be going to do your shopping." Miss Topaz said with a smile as she looked at her and finished with "I am very proud of you and where you have come from." Hermione smiled and hugged her. She walked outside and saw Ginny and held her close as they grabbed onto the portkey and were transported to one of the best shopping places ever they had been to. It was a high classified mall that not many people new about because Miss Topaz had set it up for her clients that needed to have all the stops pulled to bring them back to themselves.
Hermione and Ginny went shopping and it literally had the wardrobe that Hermione was in and how it was too tiny for what she is now. She now had her whole new wardrobe that matched with her new outlook on life. It still was close to the same wardrobe that she had now, however, a bit more to what she liked. She then walked over to the hair salon and decided that she was going to change her hair. She went for a shaggy long bob and her hair went from being all blue to a mixture of pink and blue with some hints of purple in there. She had her bangs that she loved, and was super happy that she was able to really look at herself and love herself. When the shopping day was done she walked out and the return portkey brought her outside of St. Mungos and her Camaro was waiting for her. "Whats going on?" Hermione asked as she looked around and saw Miss Topaz. "You are heading back to school and we will start our check-ins three times a week which will include therapy with Heather, this is all going to be paid for by me and the hospital." Miss Topaz started as she saw Hermione's expression changed as she looked at her and was nervous as well, "I know you are nervous, however, it is time we will have our check-ins and it will get better with time." Hermione nodded and hugged her tight "Thank you Miss Topaz." Hermione whispered as she looked up at her and was handed over the keys to her Camaro, she opened the door and saw Starbucks inside. Hermione and Ginny squealed and got into the car as her phone bluetooth connected to her car and then her music started and it was the best thing ever. They started on their way back to Hogwarts. The girls literally drove all the way to Hogsmeade and stopped at Diagon Alley and other places, and still made it back to the night time feast. When they got to the castle her Camaro was parked with Hagrid who gladly concealed her car and helped them get their stuff to the castle and respective rooms. Headmistress McGonagall met her at the front door. Hermione hugged her close and said, "Thank you." They walked inside and she pushed the doors open and walked into the Great Hall, everyone gasped as she walked in and went to her table. She first made a pit stop to Blaise and Draco and gave them big hugs. She smiled as she walked over to her table and sat down and ate her dinner. When dinner was over she walked to her room and just went inside and changed its locations so that Ron couldn't find her. She sighed as her floo lit up and Blaise walked in as she ran to him and hugged him close. "Im so sorry Blaise," Hermione said as she held him close. "Its okay Mia," Blaise said to her as he leaned her face up and kissed her gently. He took her back to her room and they laid down in her bed and they fell asleep just happily curled up in each others arms.
