Ginny looked everywhere for Harry, but she couldn't find him.She couldn't even find her brother.As a last resort she went to the Heads common room,Harry had been spending so much time there maybe Draco knew where he was.She knocked on the portrait door, and was let in by Draco.
She saw Harry sitting on the couch by Blaise, and couldn't help but let her taers fall.
"Gin whats wrong?"Harry asked.
"Hermione was attacked. I found her in a classroom with bruises on her arms, and her clothes were torn.She's in the hospital ward."
The guys all looked at each other, and ran to the hospital ward.They opened the door to see Madame Popfry, Dumbledore, and Professor Mcganagall talking.
"Is she okay?"Harry asked.
"Miss Granger is resting right now.She hasn't said a thing."Madame Pompfry said.
"Has Miss Granger said anything to you about anything?"Dumbledore asked.
"No sir why?"
"Madame Pompfry found some old bruises on her as well as fresh ones."
"I should have seen something going on. I'm her best friend." Harry said shaking his head.
"Harry I share a room with her, and I never paid any attention, so don't blame yourself."Draco said.
"You all can come back tomorrow to see her."Madame Pompfry said.The others nodded, and walked down to lunch. They passed Ron on the way, and told him about Hermione's attack.
"Well she pisses a lot of people off it could've been anyone."Was all he said before walking away from them.
"How can he be so cold about this?"Ginny asked before running to the Gryffindor tower.
"Thats what I want to know."Draco said. "If it was my girlfriend who was attacked I would be by her side every second."
Hermione awoke the next morning, and could do nothing but stare out the window.She was so preocuppied she didn't even hear her friends come into her room.
"Mione?"Ginny said quietly so she wouldn't startle her.Hermione looked at her then looked back out the window.
"Can you all just leave me alone?"
"We're your best friends, we can help you."Harry said.Hermione looked at him angrily.
"Don't you get it! You can't help me, noone can. If you would all just leave me alone things would be a lot simpler.Just get out!"
They all left so they wouldn't upset her anymore.
Weeks passed, and she still wasn't talking to any of her friends. Infact she wouldn't even come out of her room unless she had to.Her friends still didn't know what happened or the whole story behind it, but they could tell it was bad.
Ginny, Harry,Blaise, and Draco were all sitting on the couches in the heads coomon room one sunday evening when Hermione finally made herself present.She cleared her throat, so she had their attention.
"I just wanted to apologise for everything that I said. I know you all were just worried about me, but I wasn't ready to accept it."
"It's okay mione.We forgive you."Ginny said giving her a hug.There was a knock and Draco got up to answer it. Ron pushed his way through.
"Why are you ignoring me?"He demanded.
"Because I don't want to see you anymore."She stated plainly looking at the ground.
"You can't dump me.Who else is gonna date you?"
"Anyone's better than you! Besides I deserve better than a guy who beats his girlfriend!"
All eyes turned on Ron. He had never been so mad before in is life.He rushed towards her, and pinned her to the wall.She knew she said the wrong thing, but she wanted to face her demon, and move on, and this was the only way she could think of doing it. She didn't think he'd kill her with people around.
"What are you gonna do Ron?Hurt me?You already took the one thing from me that I can never get back!"
Ron went to punch her but was pulled back, and pinned to the other wall by Draco.
Blaise ran to Hermione's side, and stood by her protectively along with Harry.
Hermione looked Ron straight in the eye "You raped me, and now your gonna have to deal with the consequence because I can't deal with it anymore, and I refuse to let you win."
Draco looked at Ron, and didn't relize that he punched Ron into unconsiousness till he felt Blaise hold him back.
"Your sick Weasley, and I'll kill you if you come near her ever again!"Draco yelled as Blaise kept a hold of him trying to get him away from Ron.
Harry looked at Hermione as Ginny ran to get Dumbledore.
"Why didn't you tell me?"He asked.
"I was ashamed, and I didn't think you'd believe me."She said wipping her tears away.Harry pulled her into a hug.
Ron was escorted out of the castle, and taken to the Ministry to await trial.
