"The knife!" Hermione yelled as she watched blood trickle down Ron's neck. He gasped for air and she could hear blood gurgling in his throat. She couldn't do anything, she just watched him turn paler. Tears ran down her face, she couldn't go near him. Then she heard laughter. Hermione looked up from black shiny penny loafers to the pale faced blonde Malfoy who had the knife in his hand.

"You left me and now both of you must pay the price." Draco lunged at her heart and Hermione's scream barely escaped her open chest.

"Hermione!" she felt hands on her, shaking her. She heard Ron's voice.

"Wake up!" she slowly opened her eyes, breathing heavily as Ron stared down at her, from being on top of her.

"What, why? What are you doing on top of me, Ronald?" Hermione asked.

"You don't remember last night? You said you loved me, remember and we made love."

"MADE LOVE?" Hermione quickly sat up, bumping heads with Ron.

"How could you do this to me Ron? You knew I was out of my mind last night!" Hermione smacked him, leaving an emotionally painful mark on his cheek. Tears began to form in Ron's eyes and he got up, attempting to leave.

"You know, Hermione, I was out of it too. I must have been to even think you truly loved me."

"Wait, Ron I-" Ron slammed the door. Hermione rolled over, just now noticing that she was in Ron's bed. Hermione felt so bad.

"I need a drink now..." Hermione rolled out of Ron's bed and dressed herself. Then she was on her way to the nearest corner store.

There she stood in front of the beer bottles that seemed to be calling to her.

Flashback:

"If you just left me touch you this one time, I wont press charges against you, Hermione."

"No. I'm afraid I don't mix business with pleasure, unlike some people."

"You wont tell right?" his hand reached out to gently rub Hermione's shoulder. Slower and slower it began to ease it's way down to her breast.

"This is uncalled for!" she grabbed for his hand, but he grabbed back, tightening his grip as he pulled her closer, muffling her discomforted grunts.

"Shhh, it's okay. I'm gonna make you feel good pretty lady." She could smell the beer on his breath as he kissed her neck.

"Stop! I'm not taking you back!" his grip only got tighter.

"Harry, you're hurting me!" he pushed her to the floor and left the office.

The next day:

"Miss Granger, the boss would like to see you." Hermione was so happy, she just knew she was getting a promotion. She pushed open the door, and saw Harry sitting in a chair across from the boss. She got nervous and wanted to run.

"Sit Miss Granger." Hermione nodded, and quietly sat down. Harry slipped his hand under her skirt as the boss began, but just as she was about to say something, Harry dug his nails into her leg, making tears threaten to fall from her eyes.

"Miss Granger, to get to the point, you're fired. Rules are rules. Mr. Potter here says you tried to sexually harass him yesterday just because he wouldn't take you back, which is strictly against our 'no dating among co-workers' policy."

Hermione's eyes darted toward Harry's. She was so upset that she fainted, later on waking up in Harry's bed.

Later:

"Drink it."

"Look Harry, you already fucked up my career and now you want to fuck with me? I don't think so. Get me the hell out of here before I kill you!" she picked up the glass cup and threw it at him, watching it shatter into millions of pieces. She got scared of what Harry would've did next, so she took the beer eventually and drank it all. It made her feel a whole lot better for a while.

"Where are you calling from Mione?" Ron asked.

"I don't want to say. Just come pick me up." Hermione was whispering while Harry's drunken body was sleepily wrapped around her waist. Ron eventually came right away.

That's how Hermione started drinking.

End flashback:

"Are you going to buy that beer miss?" asked the clerk next to her.

"Oh, yeah. Sorry."

Hermione sat on the curb drinking her beer with the brown paper bag still on it. She looked down by her feet and saw her reflection in a dirty puddle of water.

"Well, my life can't possibly get any worse now." all of a sudden Hermione heard what sounded like large crowds of people and a helicopter. She looked up in the sky as she felt the wind coming from the chopper's propellers. As soon as her eyes returned back to earth, about 40 people came at her, asking her questions, taking pictures, and shoving tape recorders in her face.

"Miss Granger, how long has it been since Mr. Malfoy left the scene last night?"

"Miss Granger, you do know that you'll never have another job again right?"

"Is it true that you slept with Mr. Malfoy to get where you are today?"

"Miss Granger, Miss Granger!"

She began to run, dropping the beer behind her. when she finally got to Ginny and Ron's home she locked all the doors, and closed all the windows. They wouldn't leave her alone. Ron was pissed at her, Ginny was never home anymore, and a week later the phone rang and she couldn't take it anymore. She had to pick up the phone.

"HELLO?" she yelled into the receiver. She hadn't left the house for a week.

"Hey sexy. Ready to come back to work? By the way, I had to alert the press that you quit working for me."

"I'M NOT COMING BACK! CALL THEM OFF" she looked out of the window and saw people camped out in the front yard.

"I can't. Unless you come back." Hermione hung up the phone, not knowing what to do and imediantly started packing until Ron came in.

"Unpack your bags, Hermione."

"I have to go Ron. I can't take this stress."

"I said, unpack the damn bags!" He grabbed Hermione, shook her, and threw her on the bed. She was crying uncontrollably.

"What the hell is wrong with you Mione! I fuckin' love you! We made love! And now you want to leave?"

Hermione sat up and cried on Ron's shoulder. He grabbed her tightly and rocked back and forth with her for a little while.

"I love you too Ron." Ron lifted her chin and kissed her gently on the lips.

"But, you do realize I have to go back. Just for a little while. I have a plan." Ron nodded. He was on top of her.

"You know, this is your last night for a long time. Want to make love for real this time?" Ron blushed, embarrassed at what he just said. But before he could apologize, Hermione began undressing beneath him, and she wanted him to take her, because she knew she had to go back to Malfoy.
