Hermione clasped a hand to her mouth and stared at Harry in disbelief. She grew extremely angry and shot at him making the whole common room look at them, "YOU KNEW?!?! Oh my goodness Harry. You fucking knew and didn't tell me?"

Trying to calm her down, he held her shoulders and steered her out of the common room and brought her to the room of requirement where she could get her anger out. Hermione was never one to throw temper tantrums and swear, but she was at a vulnerable and angry stage right now and she just needed to be with someone who could help her. Finally reaching the room Hermione flung herself down on a pillow that was lying there and lied completely still. Harry didn't have a clue what to do, Ron always seemed to be better at diminishing Hermione's tears than Harry had. So he did the only thing he could possibly think of, he walked over to her and touched her shoulder. She flinched and he took it away. He decided the best option was just to sit and wait until she came around.

He hadn't told Hermione about his vision for one reason only, he didn't want to have to be the one to break it to her. She was his best friend, and he knew if he had told her, she would have thought he was a lying bastard. and Harry knew he was. Ironically, Dumbledore always seemed a good person to hear bad news from.

About an hour later, Hermione sat up and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry I yelled at you Harry." Her voice shocked him a little bit, but he moved a little bit closer to her.

"It's okay Mione'." Harry said back.

"No, I'm really sorry. but w-why didn't you tell me?"

Harry told her the story about not wanting to be the one to hurt her, and it would be easier if Dumbledore told her, although Harry was the one who immediately informed Dumbledore after the dream.

Hermione squeaked out, "Why is everything being kept from me? Why are you guys trying to protect me so much? I'm not helpless."

"We know you're not, but everyone just wants the best for you. Especially Ron." This apparently was the wrong thing to say about Ron, because at the mention of his name she suddenly grew furious.

"My GOD! Another thing, where the hell is he?!"

"Wellll." Started Harry, "I don't exactly know."

Hermione let out a huge gasp of air and said in a whisper, "What do you MEAN you don't know???"

"He means, he doesn't know." Said a low voice from behind them.

Hermione spun around and saw Ron standing there looking extremely guilty.

"Ron!?! RON!!! Oh my God Ron you asshole where have you been?!?! RON!!" Hermione was getting out of control now and just as she was about to lunge herself at Ron, Harry caught her and pulled her back holding her tightly around her waist. Ron stepped forward and grabbed her upper arms forcing her to look up at him. She marveled at how he could force her to do something, and be so gentle at the same time. In all truth, she was just worried about Ron. He looked at her so adorinigly that night in the forest, and all she wanted was to have him look at her like that again instead of the pitying look he was giving her. Disolving into tears Hermione tried once again to escape the grips of the two teenage boys.

But it was no use.

They were much bigger and MUCH stronger than she was and soon she was gasping for air in between her words, "YOU - BOTH - LIED - TO - ME!!!"

Her words shattered each of them like glass, her parents were dead, and all they were doing was avoiding her. And all she wanted was someone to cry to. She finally calmed down but Ron still held her shoulders and Hermione looked up at him with the saddest eyes in the world, "I lost my mum and dad Ron. and I wasn't about to go and lose my best friend on top of that."

Ron felt his heart tearing. He never meant to hurt her, he just wanted to give her space because he thought she didn't want to see him after they almost.

Wrapping her arms awkwardly around Ron she reached up and hugged him very quickly and then turned to Harry and hugged him as well. Sniffing, Hermione said in a nasaly (weird word I know, but you get the picture) voice, "I feel so awful."

Harry and Ron looked at each other not having a clue what to say. The three teens stayed silent for a little while and finally Harry spoke up with something that made Hermione and Ron feel incredibly guilty.

"Hermione, I'm so sorry about your parents. I know how it feels to lose them." His voice cracked at the end.

Her head shot up at once, and said, "oh my gosh Harry. I'm so sorry. I totally forgot."

"Yeah, no shit Hermione," Harry said without even thinking.

Looking up at him with the most painful eyes Harry had ever seen, Hermione began to cry silently. Ron stood flabbergasted between his two best friends. Hermione sniffed and rubbed her face, saying, "What are we going to do?"

No answer.

"LOOK! This-This is s-so hard. my mum and dad are gone and I haven't got anyone except you two, a-a-nd I feel so alone!" Hermione shouted out at them both.

Ron finally spoke up and said, "Hermione, we'll always be here for you. It's a promise."

Catching Ron's blue eyes with hers, she whispered in a hoarse voice, "Well, we've made and broken a lot of promises haven't we. "

Turning on her heal she walked out of the room of requirement leaving Ron and Harry upset and confused.

Then quite suddenly, Harry felt a burning at the back of his eyes, and he let his first tears fall in 6 years.
