DISCLAIMER: I do not own Harry Potter. Neither do I own the song Shadow, by Britney Spears (yes, sad, I know)I own only the plot.

A/N: This little thing i wrote in class. It is very sad and short, so I'll just leave it to you too review. It's a simple one-shot about Hermione's feelings for loosing her mother. I know she hasn't in the books, but I just felt like writing about Hermione and her feelings

She stood there...

Just stood there while singing with words that came directly from her heart.

She sang all the loneliness away, knowing that it would come back again

It's only your shadow
Never yourself

It's only your shadow
Nobody else
It's only your shadow

Filling the room
Arriving to late
And leaving to soon

While singing she remembered all her glad moments with her long gone mum.

They were talking, having fits of laughter and had no idea about what would cone next

They were laughing at things they did years ago

But now she was gone.

Gone forever

How can I tell if you mean what you say?
You say it so loud, but you sound far away

Maybe i had just a glinse of your soul
Or was that your shadow i saw on the wall?

I'm watching you dissapear, but you..
You were never here

It sounded so beautiful, but the people listening didn't know what feelings she had.

They didn't know how hard it was to sing with so powerful words.

The girl on the stage just wanted to collapse so she could cry her heart out.

But she couldn't.

She had never cried in her life.

She didn't cried at her mother's funeral.

She didn't cried over the loss ofher best friend.

She didn't even cry over the unfair world.

For that she hated herself.

It was sad, but yet real.

Your body gives,
but then pulls back
The sun is bright,
the sky is black
I cannot keep what isn't mine
You laugh and it lingers on
But you, you were almost gone

She was about to finish by singing the last couple of lines when she saw her mum.

Completely healthy and Ok.

She didn't even have scratches from the accident.

The girl forgot the rest of the words and ran over to her mum.

She had never been so glad in her entire life.

The next second, she woke up.

'So it was just a dream...'
