Recovering

Hermione was ordered to spend two days in St. Mungo's. She didn't argue- who would refuse 24 hour care and plenty of uninterrupted sleep time?

Well, uninterrupted except for the hour Severus spent with her each day and the short visits from Harry, the Weasleys (yes, all of them), and a few professors.

Hermione enjoyed their visits but was glad they knew when to leave her.

Charlotte was, for the most part, a well-behaved baby. Hermione had wondered if she would take after her father and be extremely demanding but she was glad to be proven wrong on that point.

Sorry this chapter ends so abruptly and is so uneventful. Things will pick up though. Thanks for sticking around this long, guys!

By the way, if you're wondering what happened to Hermione's parents… I never bothered to write them in so writing them in now in chapter 64 seems a bit silly because then I'd have to create some back-story about why they didn't care enough to be with Hermione during her pregnancy and birth. So, for hypothetical argument's sake, let's say they both died in the war. Or maybe they just really don't care about their daughter who opted for the magical word instead of the muggle world and ended up marrying a man old enough to be her father who's 'ugly' and 'mean' to boot. Heh. Take your pick or come up with an alternative and share it with me. You might get chocolate cupcakes in return.
