Peter looked around before entering the classroom.
"You're late"a voice states.
"I know. But that cat..."
Hermione chuckled.
"What did you expected? You are a rat"
"I know"he replied.
"Peter, please tell me you are not blaming yourself again!"
"I am not. But still I grieve Hermione! This year I am going to see Sirius and Remus for the first time in years and to them I will be a filthy traitor. Dirt. They will wish to kill me and I do not blame them. Having you , Miranda and Jason, Cedric helped me all these years. I would gave gone mad at the Weasley's without you all. And soon Cedric will be gone too. We are fewer and fewer. And I worry about you too. How will you cope with both of us gone"
"Stop! Peter stop! You know that they will understand one day. They will. Everyone will know how brave have you been. How brave you will be"she said and hugged him tight.
"Perhaps, but I feel like a fish out of water. Like I need to breath, but..."
"I know the feeling. And I know how you feel Peter. I will miss you terribly. And Cedric too. I don't event want to think about it. But I also know we got no choice. After all the possible things this is the best. The best for everyone"
"I know Hermione. But I can't help but wish that I was alive when my best friends find out that I am not a a traitor. That I was always loyal and that I was and that I would always will be their friend"
"Yes, but in a way you were. For few minutes"
"You're right. I should be grateful that James' grandson has a knack for time travelling. He managed to bring them to me this time. Exactly as lily said all those years ago. Well, she did not say, she just..."
"Told you to be in the Great Hall in a certain day at precise hour"said Hermione with a smile.
"Yeah. But it wasn't easy at all" Peter said, remembering how he had barely evaded Mrs. Norris. The cat was evil in his opinion.
"I know. But it was worth it. We are going to succeed Peter. We are going to win. That was the proof"
"It gave me strength"he admitted,"but at the same time it reminded me that I will not be there to live it"
"Peter, you don't know..."
"I did not know. But now I do. You saw it too Hermione. They talked as I was dead, as I had died a long time ago. My suspicions were correct. And I think Lily knew it too. The way she looked at me in those last few days"
Suddenly Hermione let out an anguished cry, startling him.
"No,no! I cannot lose you too!"
Peter tightened his hug and singed softly in her ear.
"You will survive Hermione. You have to. You will pull through the wawes.
