XOXO

Hermione walked up the winding staircase to Gryffindor tower. She mentally cursed to herself as she realized that she had no idea what the password was. So, she sat down moodily on the floor waiting for someone to come.

She hated times like these when she had to time to think. She pleaded that her mind would not go back into a painful memory, but it did.

She was walking home from the supermarket with a bag in hand, and only one item inside. She unlocked the front door to the house, after making sure neither of her parents home she ran upstairs to her bedroom and locked the door behind her. She quickly unwrapped the pregnancy test and went into the bathroom. After she was done, she found herself hopping around the room, hyperventilating, and praying to God (something she rarely did). After five minutes of agony she stood debating whether or not she should look.

But, she had to know.

She picked up the stick and felt her heart skip a beat, she was pregnant. Hermione Jane Granger was pregnant at the age of fifteen with Ron's baby!

She could not believe that this was happening; she could not believe that he had raped her three weeks before school got out.

And, now she was pregnant. And, Hermione knew exactly what she was going to do. She grabbed her purse and ran out of the house, she had to do it. She wanted to do it.

Hermione wiped the tears from her eyes as she looked down at her stomach, she was a murderer. She had killed a child, and it didn't even have a choice. But, that was not what bothered her, what bothered her was if the situation were to happen again, she would do the same thing.

But, that was impossible since she was now on the pill.

Hermione wiped the running mascara as soon as she heard someone coming down the hall. She took a deep breath and pulled herself together like she had so many times before. Harry rounded the corner and smirked when he saw Hermione.

"Do you want to know the password?" He asked he walked closer to Hermione. She nodded and kneeled beside her to help her up.

"Blimey", he said after seeing her puffy eyes, "Were you crying, Mione?"

"Don't call me Mione"

Harry rolled his eyes exasperated, "Answer the question!"

"Allergies", Hermione replied.

"You're lying!"

Hermione frowned, "Well I'm not going to tell you the truth, so don't ask."

"Hermione, I'm your best friend you can tell me anything."

"What's the password?"

"Fuck, Hermione!"

"That's an unusual password", Hermione smirked.

Harry smiled despite himself. "Autumn"

"How original!"

Harry agreed, Hermione said the password and they walked into the common room and to the foot of the stairs in silence.

"Harry, you were wrong earlier. Some things are not meant to be told, you should know plenty about that." Hermione said before running up the stairs and away from Harry. Harry seethed in anger, ran a hand through his hair and muttered several curses under his breath before he too retreated to his room.

Hermione sat down at the Gryffindor and picked up a yogurt from the middle.

"Morning, Hermione!" Harry stated at staged happiness.

Hermione rolled her eyes and started in on her yogurt.

"Hermione!" Ron said.

"What?" She snapped.

"What's wrong, Hermione, you're so different."

"Yeah, well people change." Hermione responded.

"Not you", Ron chimed.

Hermione snorted and took another bite of her yogurt. "What happened, I've only seen you read one book in two days, your clothes are different and you haven't lectured me or Harry about our summer homework yet!"

Hermione's eyes widened. "We had summer homework?"

Harry and Ron's mouths gaped; they both started looking around to see if any pigs were flying.

"Just extra credit."

"Thank God!" Hermione replied relived.

"You didn't do the extra credit?" Ron asked in shock.

"I had a lot going on"

"That's for sure", Ron said smiling.

Hermione shot him daggers from across the table. Ron backed off and the trio sat in awkward silence for probably the first time in their lives. After several tense moments, Hermione decided to break the silence.

"What sis you and Neville talk about?"

"Some things are not meant to be told, you should know plenty about that!" Harry spat throwing the words she had said last night back at her. Harry stood up and stormed out from the Great Hall.

"Harry Wait!" Hermione called after him and left her half eaten yogurt behind as she ran up to Harry. She grabbed his arm and he shook her off. Using her strength she grabbed his arm again and successfully turned him around.

"We need to talk", she said.

"Why? How do I know that you will even talk to me?"

"I'll ask questions"

"But you won't answer mine!"

Hermione frowned and looked down at her shoes, "No, I won't." harry turned to leave but Hermione stopped him. She cupped his check and looked into his emerald green orbs, "But, I will tell you. You are the only one that I can trust, and when I am ready to talk, I will."

"Do you swear?"

"Yes, I do, it's a new habit I'm afraid."

Harry smiled, "I'm serious."

"So was I"

"Hermione", Harry moaned.

"Ok, fine I swear that when I am ready to talk, that I will tell you, and only you, everything."

Harry smiled and held her hand, "I'll hold you to that."

"I'm sure you will."

Harry rolled his eyes and swatted her playfully.

"Never hit a girl!" Hermione said playfully.

"Fine, but come on let's find a place where we can talk."

"Alone?" Hermione mocked.

"And intimately"

Hermione smiled and felt her cheeks redden.

"Perv", she muttered.

"That's why you love me" Harry said while cracking his signature grin.

Hermione paused, as if thinking. "As, if"

And she took off running, laughing wildly, with Harry following close behind. He finally got close to her and pushed her up to a wall to make her stop. Hermione stood panting on the wall with Harry standing dangerously close. Hermione looked up to see Harry staring at her and smiling. She couldn't help it and she smiled even though she felt like her lungs were about to explode. Harry brought a hand up and tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. His hand lingered a second longer than normal before he rested it on the wall. He leaned in closer, and Hermione's hearty fluttered. But, instead he opened the door to the room of requirement and Hermione fell down on her but.

"Harry!"

Harry laughed and closed the door behind him.

"Klutz", he muttered.

Hermione smiled and joined Harry in his laughter.
