Moment 11: Friends

"Hermione!" She looked up to see Harry and Ron.

"Hello." Her voice was dull.

"We heard you were in his office when Albus collapsed this morning." Ron had never been any good at small talk.

"Yes." She couldn't bring herself to say anything more.

"And.?"

"Well, he just, collapsed. I was in shock for a bit, then I called for Madame Pomfrey."

"Does she know why it happened?" Harry was visibly upset- Dumbledore was like a father to him.

"Not yet. She's only just begun to examine him." She was staring at the floor, her head in her hands.

It would be only a matter of minutes until she found out.
