Hermione was sitting in the common room, reading a book on the Ancient Egyptians when Harry and Ron entered. Harry opened his mouth to speak when Hermione slammed the book shut and walked past him, doing her best to ignore him.
"You can't give me the silent treatment forever!" Harry demanded, stopping her just before she could go up to the girl's dormitory. "Hermione, what is your problem?"
"You took everything away from me! Severus is dead, I got suspended and set back a year! How do you think that's going to when I'm trying to get a job?"
"You didn't have to go sneaking out to visit him that night, you know!" Harry spat.
"You didn't have to go tell Dumbledor!" Hermione shot back. "If you had kept you big mouth shut, everything would be just fine!" Harry stood there, with his mouth agape, apparently at a loss for words. It was a few moments before Ron walked in and broke the tense silence.
"What's going on?" He asked, looking curiously from Harry to Hermione and back.
"I can't believe this!" Harry fumed, and left the common room.
"Uh-oh..." Ginny's voice murmured from behind Hermione, "This isn't good..."
"what isn't good?" Ron wanted to know, "Hermione? What happened between you two?"
"None of your buisness!" Hermione yelled, and went up to the dormitory.

Hermione threw the book down on her bed, and cursed. A small squeak came from the doorway, and Hermione turned to see who it was.
"Hermione?" Ginny asked in slightly more than a whisper, "Why is it so hard for you to see it from his point of view?" Hermione felt inhaled deeply, trying not to hate Ginny for what she had said, but finding it very diffcult at the time.
"Why should I? That idiot ruined my life." Hermione spat out venomously.
"He didn't intend to, you know--" Ginny started.
"I've heard that before!" Hermione shouted, but before she could continue, Ginny interrupted her.
"If anyone, you should be angry at the girl who killed him, and she's in Azkaban!" Ginny yelled back. Hermione was taken aback, and Ginny took the chance to continue. "He only did what he thought was best for you, Hermione. He didn't know that you were in love with Professor Snape."
Hermione's heart ached, and she wasn't sure whether she was sorry for the way that she had treated Harry or angry with Ginny for showing Hermione a truth that she wasn't really sure she wanted to see.
"Please go away, Ginny." Hermione plead, as she fought back tears. "Just go away." Ginny turned and headed tentitively down the stairs. Hermione sat on her bed, and tried not to cry.
