Chapter 10

Helping Hermione

"Now mudblood, its time for you to die, Avada---AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! screamed Voldemort. 45 members of Order of the Pheonix had appeared, and where throwing spells and Voldemort and His Death Eaters.

"Until next time," Dumbledore said Voldemort, and he disappeared.

"Hey, wait for us!" said Rookwood, and all the Death Eaters disapperated too.

A/N Come on you guys do you really think I would have killed off Hermione, its a H/Hr story I couldn't have done that. I am not saying however that Hermione will not die at some point.

"Intervate!" said Moody pointing his wand at Dumbledore.

"You ok, Albus?" asked Moody looking concerned

"Are Hermione's parents alright?" the Headmaster asked. Moody bowed his head

"I'm very sorry, but Voldemort arrived, before we did, they're gone," Hermione, who had just been revived by a very concerned Harry heard Moody's words

"I'm sorry Hermione," said Harry.

"I'M GOING BACK TO SCHOOL HARRY!" said Hermione tears running down her face. she jumped up and run into what remained of her house grabbed the pot of floo powder threw some in the fire, got in and said H-Hogwarts.

Harry, Ron, and Dumbledore used the Portkey to return to Hogwarts.

"Go and try to comfort Ms. Granger, Harry since you lost your parents at an early age perhaps you can help her. Mr. Weasley please send an owl to your family informing them of the nights events.

When Harry arrived at the Headboy/Girl Dormitory, he tried to open to door.

"Hermione let me in," he said

"No!" shouted Hermione,

"Ok, you might not let me in, but your still going to listen," "If you have anyone to blame your parents deaths on is me," "If you weren't friend with me your parents would never have died," "And in case you've forgotten my parents are dead to, only you got to know and love your parents for seventeen years before they died," "I never even knew mine, and on top of that I was lied to about how they died for ELEVEN YEARS! Slowly very slowly Hermione opened the door, her eyes were red, and tears were running down her cheeks

"I'm sorry," said Hermione I-I wasn't thinking,"

"Well, that's ok," said Harry quietly.

"What am I going to do?" said Hermione tearfully. "My baby sister is at a friend's house tonight, so I don't think they know yet," "My-My parents always said if something happened to them that I would take care of Leia, but how with our house destroyed do they expect me to do that?"

"Well," said Harry "What about the rest of your family, can't they do it?"

"No, I'm the only Granger left," answered Hermione sadly.

"Well, I've just solved the problem of where you're going to live," said Harry happily.

"Where," asked Hermione.

"Grimmuld Place, of course, I told you Sirius gave it to me, but you're welcome the live there too,"

"Really, Thanks Harry, I don't what I would do without you,"

"Oh, its really nothing, besides I wouldn't want to live in that house by myself anyway,"

"You afraid of a house," said Hermione "You, the one who's must life end in or include murder, afraid of a house,"

"It's Sirius's house," said Harry, "that's why, anyway Mione I'm tired, so I'm going to bed,"

"You know, I think I will to,"

As Harry went into the bathroom to take a shower and change, Hermione put on a nightgown, and got into bed. When Harry left the bathroom, He noticed Hermione was already in bed.

"Sleeping like an angel," Harry thought to himself as he watched her." She is the most beautiful girl I've ever seen. He walked over to her kissed softly on the cheek, and got into bed.

A/N: His own bed people, not hers

Suddenly, Harry felt the side of his bed sag, He rolled over to see Hermione.

"What are you doing?" asked Harry.

"Oh, I can't sleep. she said. Harry pulled back his covers, and patted the spot next to him. Hermione's eyes went wide.

"Oh Harry, I couldn't, well I guess I can," she laid down. Harry wrapped one arm around her back, and kissed her on the forehead.

"I'll always be here for you," he said

"I know," said Hermione "Goodnight,"

"Night, sweetie. said Harry.
