Ron received a call by patronus at 3 in the morning. He was in bed when he saw a bright light near the door. He got up and grabbed his wand to realize it was a healer.
"Ronald Weasley. Your wife has been admitted to St. Hugo's. She is seriously injured and you should come down immediately." It then disappeared.
Ron immediately got up and got ready. Was this really happening? Are they sure it wasn't someone else? Was Hermione alright? Was she even alive? He sent a patronus to Harry and Ginny and they immediately came.
"Ron! Oh my god are you sure? Is Hermione alright?" Ginny asked anxiously.
"I really don't know I'm just going to go down and see. Can you two watch the kids? I'll send you a patronus as soon as I get a word." Ron said to them.
"Of course, go quickly now." Harry said to Ron.
Ron apparated to St. Burrows and went to the front desk. "Excuse me is there a Hermione Weasley here?"
The nurse checked the board and said "Yes there will be. She should be arriving now actually."
"Just arriving? I got a call saying that she was already her-" Before Ron could finish, Healers immediately came in with Hermione on a gurney. She had blood everywhere, bruises, cuts, black eye. Her clothes were ripped and stained with blood. She looked almost dead. Ron rushed to her side as they submitted her into a room.
"Oh my god Hermione! OH MY GOD!" Ron screamed. Seeing her in that kind of condition was torturous. She looked like she wasn't going to survive.
"Mr. Weasley please you have to stay out here while we operate." The Healer said.
"No no no! She's my wife!" Ron demanded.
"I get that Mr. Weasley, but family members are not allowed in emergency rooms. Please take a seat while we operate. We will do whatever it takes to save Hermione." The healer told Ron.
Ron then went down to sit in the waiting room. He started to cry. Oh my god he thought. I did this to her, If I didn't drive her away, she wouldn't be hurt like this. He sat there for what seemed like hours and cried. If Hermione died, he wouldn't be able to live. He thought living without her was horrible, but actually having her die, will ruin him. Though she might have hated Ron, he didn't blame her. But, she was still his wife and he loved her. He already sent a patronus to Harry and Ginny and they were on their way here. His parents were also coming.
Ginny, Harry, the kids and their parents arrived at the same time. They all went running to Ron with questions. "Is she alright? Where is she? Is she ok? What's taking so long?" They all asked.
Ron was still shaky from shock and didn't have words to say. Molly went to give her son a hug.
"Oh Ron, don't cry. It'll be alright I'm sure. She's home now that's all that matters." Molly said to his son. Ron was still crying and then he saw his children.
"Daddy, where's mummy? Why are you crying?" Rose asked.
"Oh, daddy just missed Mum that's all. You'll see her soon ok I promise." Rose said while giving her a kiss.
"Ron Weasley?" The healer asked. Ron stood up and said "Yes? Is my wife alright?"
The healer took a few moments. Ron thought he knew what she meant. "Oh no, please don't tell me she's dea…" He couldn't even say the word. He had tears in his eyes again.
"No she isn't dead. I'm healer Marlina by the way. She isn't dead but she is in serious condition." She looked behind Ron to see Ron's family. She looked back to Ron and continued. "She is wounded quite badly. She has broken bones including her ribs and leg. She has cuts and bruises everywhere. She isn't doing well at the moment. We went in to give her emergency surgery to remove the glass and see what's been damaged. She lost a tremendous amount of blood. We aren't sure of her fate as of right now. And also, she came to me about a month ago and she found out she was pregnant." Healer Marlina was interrupted by Ron's confusion.
"She was what?" Ron was shocked. He had no idea that she was pregnant. His family was more shock than he was. Healer Marlina continued. "Well she definitely is, or WAS. The baby died in the crash I guess by miscarriage. I'm very very sorry, I thought you knew about this. You guys can go in to visit her now. Stay as long as you like but only a couple of people in the room at a time please. I truly am sorry." Healer Marlina went back into the emergency room to clean up.
Ron stood there silent. Hermione was probably not going to make it. Their child was already dead. What has he done? He began to cry really hard and Ginny and Molly came up to give him a hug.
"Oh Ron. I'm so sorry. I'm sorry I couldn't have helped to do anything or prevent her from leaving." Ginny said with tears in her eyes as well. Hermione was her best friend and it would kill her if she died as well. Rose had a confused look on her face. She didn't understand what was going on. Though she was nine years old, she did inherit Hermione's brain and Ron was positive that she at least caught on a little. Ron went to sit down and cried even more. Then his daughter came to sit down with him. He lifted Rose into his lap and hugged her.
"Daddy, is mum ok?" Rose asked.
"No, honey, mum is not ok. We don't know what's wrong. But we're going to go see her right now ok? You'll see mum soon." Rose told his daughter. The rest of the family followed Ron and Rose into the room where Hermione was staying. When they entered the room, they all saw Hermione with bandages all over her, eyes closed, damaged and broken. Behind Ron, Ginny and Molly gave out a scream. They were traumatized at what they saw. They all walked over to the bed surrounding Hermione. Ron looked down at his wife and the sight of her reminded him of that night when she was tortured by Bellatrix Lestrange. He promised to never leave her again from that point, and he did. Now she's in a fight for her own life. The whole family held hands and prayed that she would awaken and would soon be back in good condition.
