Hermione wept in her cell at the station. She had killed a man. She never intended to she was defending herself. It was herself or him. Never before had she felt so lonely. She cried as she remembered the looks from her neighbours, the looks from the officers at the station and the thought of what her parents would think of her. Hermione lay back down onto the concrete bench and hugged her knees as she bought them up to her chest. Hermione feel asleep a while after and the night officer heard her saying a name in her sleep… Harry… who was he the officer thought shrugging his shoulders he closed the flap on her cell door and went on to check the other cells.
Hermione woke up with a sore head as an officer bought her some breakfast. Hermione didn't look to him neither did she touched the food she just sat and stared at the opposite wall.
At noon she heard footsteps coming towards her cell and men talking.
"Came in just last night, hasn't said a thing. Hasn't eaten anything either. Poor girl looks scare to death."
The footsteps stopped at her door and she heard the scrap of the lock and then her door opened. Stood before her was an officer and behind him a man in a suit, peering over the officers shoulder.
Something about the man in the suit looked familiar, the red hair, sticky-out ears and the freckles. It couldn't be? No… he couldn't be... How? No. The man obviously saw Hermione expression change and lifted a finger to his lips telling he to be quiet.
"This man is your lawyer, miss granger, he's here to help you. Come on, I'll take you to a questioning room." Hermione stood her form her bench and swayed slight her head feeling funny she placed a hand onto the wall for support and began following the officer and the lawyer following behind her. The questioning room wasn't too far Hermione was pleased to see she wasn't sure how long she could stand for. Hermione and her lawyer followed the officer into the room and there was an awkward pause as the officer and lawyer exchanged words and the lawyer showed the man out of the room. Closing the door behind the lawyer broke into a friendly smile and hermione rushed forward to hug him. Hugging him now hermione couldn't stop the continuous flow of tears. She hugged him tighter as her tears fell form her eyes.
"Ron…." Hermione cried hugging him even tighter.
