Chapter 16:
Hermione rushed out of the Great hall after Neville. She already knew where he would be and ran straight to the library, through the passageway and up towards the glass room. She pushed open the dorr gently, not wanting to disturb him or surprise him in any way. He was there, his back to her and looking out the window. She could tell that he was upset and she was too. She slowly walked over and sat down beside him. They didn't say anything because they both knew that there were no words that needed to be said. They sat in silence for an hour, staring out at the school grounds. Finally, hermione turned around and looked at his tear streaked face. His eye was bswelling up and a purple shade was already settling. His lip had been bleading and the blood dried. Hermione couldnt help it when the tears began to fall down her cheeks. Neville had always been a good and loyal Griffindor.
"Thank you," she whispered. Slowly resting her head on his shoulder. He put his arm around her, like he had so many other times before when she was upset and rested his chin on top of her head. Some may think that Neville was just a poor klutsy boy, but Hermione knew that he had the heart of a lion.
He took a deep breath before answering. " It was nothing, Mione."
Hermione smiled and a tear rolled down her cheek. She couldnt hold in anymore and eventually had started sobbing into Neville's chest. He hugged her and patted her head akwardly. Neither of them noticed Ginny come into the room. She watched them from the cornor, trying to not disturb them. Finally, she gave up and walked over, sitting beside hermione. hermione looked up and sniffed when she saw Ginny. Ginny smiled and and hugged her.
"Harry is a prat Hermione. You are better than him." Ginny said as she smoothed back Hermione's hair.
Hermione laughed and rubbed her face with the sleave of her blouse.
" I know, but I loved him." she said.
Ginny nodded. She understood.
" You know, if you wanted, I could go beat him up. I mean, Ron wouldn't mind. I hear he already gave Harry a good black eye last night. Plus, I've got this amazing hex that I have been practicing-"
"NOOO!!!!" Hermione yelled. Causing Neville to topple over the pile of books to his left.
She giggled and shot Neville an apolegetic look.
"Er...no, Ginny...that's fine. I don't want to have anything to do with him anymore. After all, I'm graduating here soon and well, we all know that I will be working after that and I don't really need Harry....I dont think. Well, the point here is that I wont be seeing him that much after that and I...I will be okay." She said, stumbling over her words and trying to look honest.
Ginny knew when Hermione Granger lied, and right now, she was lying. But if that was how Hermione wanted to deal with it then Ginny could not do anything but go along with it. Hermione was never one to change her mind.
Hermione looked around the room and smiled. It was just them again. The three of them here, in their secret spot. Well, not so secret now that Harry knew about it, but Harry was the past. Harry had cheated on her, and she had never knew that kind of heart ache was possible before Harry broke her hearrt. But she knew that she had to move on. She had two great friends, no make that three, she now had Ron back again. Atleast something good had happened.
Hermione picked up a book from the floor and opened it. She watched as Neville and Ginny argued about some trivial subject and laughed. She laughed and smiled with them. But her heart still seemed broken. And without Harry, she had a feeling that it would be broken forever.
(A/N: Im SOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSO Sorry that I havent updated in that long. Alot of stuff has happened in my life that complicated it---Alot. So Im sorry that I didnt have time, but now it is summer and things seem to have straightened out a bit and I plan on finishing this story VERY soon. I hope that even though this chapter is still super short, that you like it anyways!
Please review and accept my apology!!)
