Hermione was walking around her room trying to look for something to do, when there was a knock at the door. She ran to the door and swung it open. In the doorway stood Ron and Harry.
"Hey guys, what are you doing here," Hermione asked with a huge smile on her face. She gave each of the boys a hug and let them into her room.
"We came to see how you've been. I mean you can't have taken it very well when you found out about the accident," Harry said. Hermione looked down at the ground and let a little sigh out.
"I'm fine. How are you, are you going to go back to school, Harry," Hermione asked. Harry gave her one of the looks that said don't try to change the subject.
"I haven't decided yet. I don't know if I can go back to school without Dumbledore being there. There are too many memories of him," Harry said. Ron still hadn't said anything; he just kind of sat there looking at the pictures on Destiny and Jessica's side of the room.
"What? Is there something wrong with the room," Hermione said as she noticed what Ron was doing.
"No, you don't have your own room," Ron said. Hermione gave a small smile.
"No, but its ok. I like my room mates they're really cool. How's everything," Hermione asked the two boys.
"Fine," Both of them said together. A strange silence followed that. Hermione just stood there looking at the two wondering what was going on.
"Hermione, why are you staying here, when you could come over to my place and live there," Ron blurted out. Hermione of course knew that that is what was bothering her two best friends.
"I don't want your parents to take responsibility for me. They don't need any more kids around the house. And I'm fine here, really I like it here," Hermione said with a smile. Harry took Hermione by the shoulders and shook her really hard.
"Are you crazy? The Malfoy's own this place," Harry yelled as he shook her. Hermione got out of his grip and looked at him as if he where crazy.
"No I'm not crazy. And don't every touch me like that again, Harry," Hermione said as she rubbed her shoulders. Harry looked at her with disbelieve. Ron just stood there like he couldn't talk.
"Fine, I'll just leave. I guess I'll see you whenever I see you," Harry said and then he and Ron left. Hermione was left in her room feeling horrible and alone.
She walked over to her bags and dug out a bunch of old pictures of her family and Harry, Ron and her. She didn't know if she should stash them or put them where everyone could see them. But as she looked at the old pictures of her and her best friends, she started to cry. Hermione was starting to break down because of all the stress that had been hitting her so hard over the past couple of weeks. First her parents die, then Draco starts acting like he cares about her, and now she pulling away from the only other people who every really cared about her.
Suddenly Hermione felt very sick and rushed to the bathroom. As soon as she made it to the stall she huddled over the toilet and everything she at that day, she threw up. Hermione threw up until she didn't have anything else to throw up. When she finnished there was a knock on her stall.
"Hermione, are you ok," Jessica said through the other side of the door. Hermione sat down next to the toilet and let out a couple of tears.
"No. I'm loosing everything I've ever cared about and I can't make it stop, I just want to go home," Hermione said as she started to sob.
"Hermione open the door. I want to tell you something," Jessica said. Hermione unlocked the stall and Jessica came in. She put her arms around her and put her head on Hermione's head.
"Your not loosing everything you've ever cared about. You still have memories of your family and friends, hold onto those as long as you can," Jessica said.
"That's not enough right now," Hermione said softly.
"It's going to have to be, because that's all you have right about now," Jessica said. She moved her head so that she could look Hermione in the eyes,"You are the only person you have right now." Jessica gave her one more hug and then left the stall.
Hermione sat there for a couple more minutes, then got up and flushed the toilet. She was walking back to her room when Mrs. Regina stopped her halfway there.
"Ms. Granger, Ron has been caught with some illegal drugs and is now sitting in Juvinile detention," Mrs. Regina said. Hermione just stood there in shock. She just saw Ron, how could he have been caught with drugs.
"What, no I just saw him," Hermione said trying to convice herself that this wan't the truth.
"It was just after he left, that he was caught," Mrs. Regina said. Hermione finally lost it. Just at that second she stopped carrying about anything. She didn't care if Ron was in jail, she didn't care that she was in an orphanage, and she didn't care that Harry may not come back to the school. All Hermione cared about now was herself and how she was going to make her life work.
"Whatever, it's his falt, he shouldn't have had the stuff," Hermione said and walked off.
I know it's been a long time since I've updated, but where I live was hit by hurricane Katrina. And I've had some problems with my actual life. Some of it I actually put into the story. So it may get a little intense pretty soon. And for the one person who said that my story sucked, fuck you and kiss my ass. You don't even have enough balls to tell me your name.
