*A/N: So this part of the story is going to be the very last chapter of it. A few of you have asked me to add write a chapter about what had happened for Minerva to run away. And I also know that most of you will probably see that this wouldn't be something Minerva would do. Just keep an open mind for now I'll explain more at the end of the chapter. Also there is a new character in here. It's an OC. Just saying the character I made isn't anything like she is in the story. As always Enjoy your reading.*

Wait For You Final Update ~ Minerva/Hermione
Anguish Put Into Light
_

*A few months leading up to the break up*

It was a late night at the office for the two coworkers. The lack of people buzzing around left it strangely quiet. That was except for the sound of light laughter ringing throughout the small confined space. A single light shined at one of the desks in a cubicle, illuminating two people. The two coworkers sat rather close together both working on the project that they had to present in the morning at a meeting. It would seem it was more like that's what they should be doing, but instead they were laughing hysterically. See these weren't just two regular office workers that meet randomly at work no they were friends. Oh no, they are best friends in fact since they had been seven years old. The two sat at the joined desks, just a little too close. Neither had notice or just didn't care. And what should be sat right in between them, but a half empty bottle of Fire Whiskey and two coffee mugs. One glass had been drained once and was refilled once again to be sat almost half full disregarded off to the side. The other refilled too many times to count now had nothing left remained. The two best friends often have a glass or two when they had to pull an all-nighter it helped take the edge off but killed them in when the sun rose. They weren't very heavy drinkers it only took a glass to feel the buzz. Tonight had been an especially stress project that may have called for more than three or so full glasses. The two best friend's names were Hermione Granger and Angel Isles. Papers lay scattered and well forgotten all across the desk. Sweaty skin exposed from growing heat. Out in the open for lust filled eyes to wonder over and seek out more. Pink rosy cheeks flushed from amount of the whiskey consumed for that night. The closeness that was very apparent now. A quick look to the others lips and a few swipes of a tongue soothed now dry lips. Another glance, parted lips. Drunken fingers begin to snake their way across the desk casually and were free roam at their own accord. The silent want brought to light by a bit too much alcohol. A causal conversation turned more friendly than normal. Angel's eyes quickly shifted left, but were back again as if nothing had happened. Hermione hadn't even noticed. Angel quickly inserted a well-placed laugh which wasn't hard at all since her friend just started retelling the story of a long time ago when they were kids. She was given a perfect excuse to place a hand on her friend's fiery skin. She moved in closer and closer till there was but a gap left between them both. Hungry lips inches apart crash down quickly and clumsily by a heavily drunk friend. One set of lips devilishly sent out its attack on nonmoving ones.

Hermione was so shocked she didn't even notice softest of gasps sound out from with the depths of the shadows by the door, nor did she notice the sound of retreating footsteps running away from where they were. And that was where Minerva McGonagall had just seen her girlfriend kissing another pair of lips beside her own. It was the day that Minerva McGonagall had run away from a situation crying.

*Angel's POV/Thoughts on the event*

"I am completely drunk. There's no doubt about it. Wow being this close to Hermione seems to becoming rather difficult right now with all this alcohol in my system. I looked down and noticed Hermione's thighs were now exposed to the air. Her dress was beginning to rise up. I don't even think she notices, but I do, I always do. She looks a bit flushed too on her cheeks I wondered if that was because of the alcohol. Strange how you can grow up with a person and only view them as nothing more than a sister. Going through each break up together and each night spent helping each other off the bathroom floor when we'd drink too much. Oh those nights were fun. But somewhere along those years I started to think of Hermione less like a sister but something more. I wonder when that had happened. I don't even remember. Ugh my brain is beginning to get fuzzy. Things are getting slower. Or maybe I feel myself getting dumber. There goes the alcohol slowly taking over. Oh I wonder if I just let my fingers travel across her skin if she'd stop me, probably not she isn't one to do anything that could cause an altercation. Tell me how an incredibly smart individual can completely lose their brain in a situation like this. My knowledge is nothing compared to that of Hermione's though. She has always been the brightest witch of our age. And that still holds true. I was always held second, but I didn't mind really. She was always McGonagall's pet. I don't even know how she got with her, but she deserves better. She needs better. Someone her own age, I don't know maybe like me. Why am I getting so mad? It's not like we didn't see it coming. Oh wait, what was that? I just saw something out the corner of my eye. I dart my eyes quickly to the left so not to alert Hermione. And I see her. Minerva McGonagall herself. She's standing there with a basket. Oh lord she brought like a little picnic to the office. Oh I have an idea. Let me ask Hermione about one of the many adventures we went on as kids. I love when she tells a story of our childhood. Oh I need to sell this good. Perfect, there's an opening for me to laugh and touch her casually. Let's see how that 'old bat likes this. Wow, am I trying to make her jealous or end their relationship? Oh there's no turning back now time to take the plunge. I open my eyes for a split second to see the retreating figure of my old transfiguration teacher and I smile internally."

Hermione forcefully pushed her friend away from her.

"What the hell are you doing? I'm with Minerva. You must have known I would never, ever cheat on her. I couldn't. I wouldn't. She is my everything, my reason to live, to breathe. Why Angel, it's not just the alcohol is it?"

Still way too drunk to rationally think straight Angel replied without a beat. Liquid courage pulsing through her veins.

"No it wasn't just the drinks. I've liked you for a while. No. Loved. I've loved you for quite some time now, but then you got with her. You forgot all about me. I only saw you on holidays sometimes and for parties at the Weasley's. What about your best friend? What about me? You left me for her." Angel bitterly shrieked. "Ha, you should have seen the look on her face when she saw me kiss you just now." She instantly regret it as soon as it left her lips. Her hand slap to her mouth she had said too much.

"Wait what! Minerva was here?! She saw that?! And you didn't tell me?!" Hermione stood up fast. "What the hell Angel what kind of best friend are you?" She was fuming now, but Angel decided to push her a little bit more.

"Well least you won't have to worry about her anymore. Come on Hermione we know you were a teacher's pet, but isn't sleeping with the teacher just pushing it a little bit. You could have done better. She could never love you the way I do. Could never give you…" Angel was cut off with a harsh slap across the face delivered by Hermione. The sound echoed around the empty office. She collected her items and stormed out. Leaving her soon to be ex best friend dazed behind her and she didn't turn back. Racing after the woman she loved before she was gone forever, all because of a stupid mistake.

*A/N: I know this took forever. I am sorry for that. It occurred to me last night at 12 I need to post this. It was already written and I had to stop being lazy. Soooooooooo for those of you who may hate my OC Angel please don't judge her by just that I needed a person to be the best friend and she was all I had. She's not supposed to be like that at all. She's very kind and loving. I've been working on a whole back story for her but its rather hard to basically re-write the Harry Potter books to fit her story. Don't worry though I will tell her story the right way soon. Also the way I made Minerva's character run away…. Remember it took a lot for her to be willing to be with a former student. She poured everything out to her and that was all shattered when she saw what she thought she saw. I may add another chapter if it's wanted for them. I kind of left it where there were thoughts of getting back together not them actually getting together. Don't forget to Favorite, Follow, and Review. I love you all.*
