Moment 4: Homecoming
"Hullo Hermione! What's up?"
She really wasn't in the mood for Harry and Ron's forced cheerfulness. "Hullo boys." She sat down at the Gryffindor table in the Great Hall and felt as if she were above all this. She had done so much, she had seen the world, she had defeated Lucius Malfoy. Surely her destiny was not to follow her male friends into their little schemes, all of which seemed so insignificant compared to hers.
"You all right?" Harry was always the sensitive one, she thought dryly.
"Yeah." Her throat was so dry. She swallowed. Hard. "Yeah, I think so."
