"Oh? About me, I suppose?" It was more than evident that Hermione was angry. He didn't know how to fix it; he hadn't done anything wrong.

"Honesty, a nice change," Hemione commented resentfully.
"Pardon me?"
"Oh, nothing. I just think honesty is a nice change in our relationship. Next time, you might try listening to me."
"Listening to you? I listen to you wake up scared almost every night; I listen to you refuse help--"
"But you don't honor that. No, you take it upon yourself to tell Minerva!"
