A broken heart – Chapter 3

It was nearly midnight when Harry returned to the castle from Quidditch Practice. He was still thinking about the new training techniques, when someone bumped into him. The entrance hall was dark, so Harry couldn´t make out who it was. "Oh, sorry…", the person said in a very teary voice, "I´m sorry, I didn´t mean to, I – oh god, it´s you, Harry!" The person sounded shocked and Harry heared her dissapear in a hurry . He stoodd there, thinking, for a few seconds untill – "Hermione!", he yelled. Of course it had been her, he should have recognized her voice…but why was she crying? What on earth had happened now?

Harry ran in the directions in which he had heared the footsteps dissapear: Outside. He had no idea where Hermione was going or wethero or not she even knew, but he was sure that it was dangerous to be outside at this time. He ran down the stone steps, past Hagrid´s and stopped to look for any sign of Hermione. "Hermione, come on! Where are you?" But no one replyed. Harry ran further into the darkness, throwing his broom aside. Then suddenly he saw her – she was running straight into the forest. "Oh, great..", Harry mumbled, but followed Hermione. But once he was in the forest he had no idea were she had gone. Signing, he looked around. "Hermione, this is dangerous! Where are you?" All of a sudden, he heard a sharp intake of breath in front of him. He ran to where it came from and saw Hermione sitting on the ground in front of the lake where he had fought off all the dementors in his third year. "God, Hermione!", he said and sat down next to her. "Go away", she mumbled weakly. Harry put an arm aroud her and to his surprise, she didn´t fight him off. "What happened, huh? Come on, you can tell me..", he said. "No, no I can´t…it´s..god, Harry, just go away!", she yelled and pulled herself away from him. But while doing so, she moved her head so that Harry could see her face.

It was covered in little bruises, her nose looked like it had been bleeding and her left eye was red and swollen. "Oh my god, Hermione, what did he do to you?", Harry asked quietly.

A/N : Well, that´s it…I know I´m eveil, leaving you with such a clivehanger…muahahahaha! No, the truth is, I wanna keep the suspense up and I felt like this was a good ending for the chapter. But don´t worry, I´ll start writing Chapter 4 right now!
