Hermione's life was falling apart right before her and there was nothing she could do about it. Sure she had Ginny, but they never talked about Hermione's problem. It was always about Ginny and if she should tell Ron or her parents first. Life had seemed to have lost all meaning to Hermione. Draco was being a usual git and she never saw Jackson anymore.

"Hermione…" Ginny said. "Hermione are you listening?" Hermione shook the thoughts from her head.

"Yeah," She said with a forced smile. Ginny knew something was wrong with her but didn't know what.

"Are you okay?" Ginny asked concern filling her voice. Hermione nodded and gave her friend a small smile.

"I'm Fine,"

"Draco, seriously man, you need to lighten up," Blaise's voice rang into Draco's thoughts. He looked over at his friend and shook his head. Draco knew he wasn't the same without Hermione. He knew he needed her, but she didn't seem to need or want him.

"Look you don't know what's going on so why don't you just back off," Draco said forcefully. Blaise shook head and looked at the ground.

"What's gotten into you, we used to be the best of friends," He looked up at Draco. "I guess times change don't they," Blaise got up and walked out of the room. He hated being around Draco when he was like this.

"I told Harry," Ginny stated matter-of-factly.

"What did he say?" Hermione asked trying to seem interested.

"He doesn't want to be a part of mine or the baby's life," Hermione shook her head and put a comforting arm around Ginny. She could feel her best friend's tears on her shoulder.

She knew Ginny was going through a hard time, but so was she. Why couldn't Ginny be there when she needed her, but Ginny was going through problems of her own, harder problems.

Draco sat there staring at his feet. He missed Hermione and the way he could tell her everything. No matter how bad they were. He missed how she could make everything in the world seem okay with just a touch of her hand.

He shook his head. He promised himself he wouldn't think about her. He needed to get away from here. He needed someone to talk to. He needed Hermione.

Hermione sat down at the tables in the great hall. She knew she was early but she needed to get away from everyone and their problems. The big doors swung open and she looked towards them.

There he was the boy she had been avoiding, Draco Malfoy, the all time Slytherin git. He hadn't noticed her yet and she looked for a place to escape.

Draco turned his head in her direction and started walking towards her. She wanted to get up and run but her legs wouldn't let her.

"Hermione, Can we talk?" He asked quietly.

"No, I don't talk to Slytherin gits,"
