Join the Cutting Club
By Emma L. Granger
Summary: Ever heard of cutting yourself to relieve stress? Pain? Hermione lost in all her sorrows decides to explore this option. Will Malfoy care enough to help? Will he even find out...D/Hr.
Disclaimer: Do I own Harry Potter? No. How about J.K. Rowling? No. Legally Blonde2 on DVD (lol)? Yes.
A/N: I felt like writing. So...here you go! By the way I'm making this PG13 because of the blood and stuff. Btw, I only answered reviews w/questions or really important comments I really wanted to respond to.
tornbetween: Yeah it's a bit OOC isn't it? O well, anyways about the whole Ron thing, I don't think he'd do that to Hermione but he has to but don't worry he's going to pay in a good yet bad way. I won't say anything more because I don't want to give it away. Aw don't give me that look, I won't break. YOU CAN'T MAKE ME!!! (Ok overreacted, lol)
Mrs.Drew Malfoy: hey! Ok answers to your questions: did you get 5 reviews yet? Yup i have a question..what inspired you to write this? Ok this is gonna be kinda long: ok if u personally knew me you would know I tend to get off the subject by mentioning something else. Well I was trying to fall asleep and failing miserably at that btw and I started to think about my fics and an idea for a new one (lately they just seem to pop up) so then I started thinking about something funny my bff had said online that day and then I started thinking about the guy she talks about constantly. Turns out this guy really likes her and he's asked her out like 5 times and she's always rejected him etc. blah blah blah. So anyway he once asked her if she'd ever cut herself and she said no and he said good cause my last girlfriend did and I broke up with her. My best friend said well that's good now I know what to do if I wanna get rid of him and she was all like "I GOT A PAPERCUT!" and that reminded me of an old friend who used to cut herself, hence the idea for this fic. Told ya the answer would be long, lol. Hey I read "The New Girl" by hunni07 and I saw that you reviewed and all did ya like it? If you like humor you've SO got to read I'm Not A Muggle, Not Yet A Wizard, Harry Potter and Place Title Here, or Hogwarts High.
RosePetals678: Yes I really like your fic too. I'm all for My Harry 3!!!!!
I'm playin the role
Of the happy girl
But no one knows
Inside I'm alone
But I would never let it show
I get everyday
Too much work and not enough play
Over and over
It's always the same
Last chapter (chapter 3):
The potion had finally worn off and it was probably over midnight. Where was he again? Déjà vu...again. The first thought that came to his mind wasn't really thought it a person. Hermione, to be exact. Why wouldn't she wake up? It had been so long since he'd seen her smile (not at him but that didn't matter), heard her laugh, why did he miss her so much? Since when did he notice her this way. She was just one of Potter's bloody friends, part of the "Golden Trio" or "Dream Team" and nothing more.
He walked over to Hermione's bed. She was still cold even with the heavy white sheets that covered her deathlike, almost colorless body. He cupped her hand in his, he shivered at its chilling touch and whispered, "Everything's going to be okay Hermione."
Chapter 4:
2 weeks later-
Hermione was still sound asleep and had not awaken since the night she attempted suicide, and right now Ron was feeling really, really, really guilty. Harry and Ginny were as concerned as ever and Draco had finally recovered enough to return to classes. But he still visited Hermione. He thought it was only fair right? I mean she's the Head Girl and all he should check up on her. But Draco was starting to wonder if that was the only reason. He couldn't concentrate on his homework anymore. He stood up and went to Great Hall for lunch. On his way he passed Harry.
Without a second thought he said, "Hi Potter."
"Hey Malfoy."
They continued on their merry way going in the opposite directions when they both came to a halt.
'WAS I JUST CIVIL TO MALFOY?!' Harry thought while a few miles away a fairly tall blonde-haired boy thought, 'WAS I JUST CIVIL TO POTTER?! This whole Granger thing is really affecting me.'
&
Harry sat down to eat lunch with Ginny because Ron had gone to visit Hermione at the hospital wing. He had barely started to eat when Ron ran into the room. He looked the happiest he had ever been since 'the night' Hermione had tried to kill herself.
"HARRY! GINNY! HERMIONE WOKE UP!!!" Ron shouted for the whole Hall to hear. Wide eyes, whispers, the gossiping began.
Harry smiled. Ginny did too. 'Merlin, he hasn't done that in a long time, I miss him.' She thought though she knew Harry could never love her the way she loves him.
The three ran to the hospital wing. When they finally made their way in they walked over to Hermione's bed. There she sat bushy hair and all. She was still a bit pale but she was finally awake!
"Hi guys." Hermione said weakly.
A chorus of 'hey Hermione!' could be heard.
"So how are you Hermione?" Ginny asked. She was so relieved her best friend had finally woken up.
"I'm ok Ginny," Hermione answered. Ginny asked her if she wanted her pillow fluffed. "Really Ginny I'm fine." Hermione laughed. She was in a much better mood since 'it' had happened. She could almost say she loved the attention she was getting. To know that people cared for her, it felt good. Really good.
"Are you sure Mione?" Ron asked. She had somehow managed to forgive him but she knew that she'd NEVER be able to be more than friends with him EVER again.
"Yeah Ron, really."
"Are you hungry Hermione?" Harry said. He really wanted help Hermione. He had missed her, not just the homework help but her. It wasn't the same without her.
"No Harry. You lot should really go back and eat. I have Madame Pomfrey to worry over me." She smiled.
"Are you-"Ron started.
"Yes I'm sure Ron. Now go." She ushered them away. It was great to be cared for and all but there was also something called alone time. She heard the door open again. 'Not again.' She thought.
"Ron I said-"
"I'm not Ron." A voice said.
'I know that voice. Malfoy.' She thought quickly.
"Malfoy what are you doing here?"
"I came to give you this." He handed her a pretty blue book. The spine was white but the rest of the cover was baby blue. It contained crisp white pages. "It's a journal or diary. Whatever you want to call it."
She was speechless. Malfoy had just given her a gift, but two words escaped her mouth," Thank you."
"Your welcome. I saw it and I thought you might like it. You know you can write down your thoughts in it instead of having to find other ways to release certain thoughts from your mind." He was talking about her cutting herself. "I have to go." He said.
"All right."
"Oh Granger?"
"Yes?"
"Promise me you won't cut yourself again intentionally."
"But-"
"Promise me."
"Promise." She didn't know what had caused her to promise but it just felt right.
"Good. Well bye."
"Bye." Just like that he had left. Hermione was bored she picked up a box of Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans and started eating.
30 minutes later-
Ok she had finished eating as much as she could. She thought of what she could do next. She looked around the room. Her eyes fell on the pretty blue book Malfoy had given her. She grabbed it and opened the book. They was something written on the first page:
Hermione Granger,
True friendship is a plant of slow growth, and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation.
-Draco Malfoy
What did this mean? Well Hermione knew what the saying meant. It was an old, famous saying. But what she didn't understand was why he had written it in there. Could it be a peace offering? A trick? She didn't know but she was too tired to think anymore. She'd think about all of this tomorrow. She fell asleep, her right hand hanging on the left hand hanging on the side of the bed. She was still clutching the blue book, her grip loose. The book fell to the ground making her status of sleep clear.
A/N: Well there you go. 5 or more reviews as usual. Anyways, went to the movies. White Chicks wasn't playing anymore and so we got stuck with A Cinderella Story. The corniest, stupidest, yet still funny to laugh at movie. I couldn't stop laughing neither could my friend. I like the part where he gets dressed up for school in red sweats, lol. But the part at the pep rally, that was cold. I almost cried for her, I'm all extra emotional like that. Well anyways, g2g, review!!!!
