***Hello everyone! I am sorry I didn't update yesterday but I was busy with studies! I can't believe how the days pass. In only 5 days I have my birthday! I am so happy! I have already thought about what I am going to do at my birthday! I will write a sequel to this story. Nothing much...Just two-shots.! I hope you like the chapter! See you soon!
One week later after the episode with the break up, Hermione was lost in her own world. She was talking to her friends but she was miserable. All of her friends were worried about her but no one said anything.
In the other hand Draco was the same. Blaise was the only one from his real friends who talked to him after what he had done. He was miserable too but at least Hermione was in no danger. The Dark Lord had said that no one would touch her or her parents and for that he was glad.
One day, Hermione and Harry went back to their common room after a late visit to Hagrid. Ron was serving detention with Snape. When they walked inside the common room everything was silent and Hermione went and sat in front of the fire. She pulled her legs up to her chest and rested her forehead on her knees. Harry went and sat beside her. They were silent for a few minutes but then Hermione broke the silence.
''Harry, I don't know why but I feel that something bad is going to happen. I can feel it and it scares me so much.'' Hermione said. She looked the dancing flames and sighed.
''I don't know what to say about that Hermione. The only thing I know is that I will protect you no matter what'' Harry said and gave Hermione a small smile
Suddenly a tap at the window was heard and the two friends look at the owl outside. Harry stood up and opened the window for the owl to get inside the room. The owl flew to Hermione and gave her a letter and left. Hermione looked the letter and at the backwas written 'To Hermione Granger'. Before she could open it Harry sat again beside her. Hermione looked at him and when he nodded, she opened the letter. She started to read it but not aloud.
Ms. Granger
We are very sorry to tell you that your parents Mr. John Granger and Mrs. Jean Granger were found dead at your house. As it seems they were killed by the killing curse. The Dark Mark was above your house when the aurors found your parents. We are truly very sorry for your lose and we hope that no other problem will come at your way again.
Sincerely
Minister of Magic
Hermione clutched the letter to her chest and started to cry with sobs. Harry hugged her tight trying to make her relax. He didn't know what had happened to his friend and she was like this. When he realized that she couldn't breath properly he made her lean at his chest and said ''Come on Hermione breath with me. Come on, in - out. In – out.'' When Hermione found her rhythm again Harry sighed in relief. The sobs had yet to stop and Harry started to rock her but it didn't help at all. He knew that it was best if McGonagall had her because she was Hermione's grandmother but he couldn't leave Hermione alone in her state. He looked around at the portraits and saw that everyone was sleeping. Suddenly a ghost appeared and went to Harry ''Is she okay?'' The woman asked Harry who look relieved for a moment and said ''Please go to professor McGonagall and tell her that someone needs her. Please!'' Harry said and the ghost immediately left.
Minutes later Minerva arrived at the common room and saw Harry in the floor with Hermione sobbing in his arms. She kneeled beside them and when she saw the state Hermione was in she waved her wand in the air and Hermione fell asleep in Harry's arms.
''Potter can you take her bridal style?'' Minerva asked and when Harry nodded she stood up and said ''Follow me'' she said and the two walked inside the fireplace after a spell Minerva used to stop the fire. She yelled ''McGonagall's rooms'' and threw the floo powder. Seconds later they arrived at her rooms and Harry put Hermione to a couch. He too sat down and looked at Hermione.
''Potter tell me what happened to her'' Minerva said
''I don't know professor. We were sitting near the fireplace when an owl came and gave Hermione a letter. She started to read the letter and when she finished it she started to cry. After that you know the story.'' He said and caressed Hermione's hair from her face
Minerva took a deep breath and looked at Hermione ''Very well Potter, please go back to your dorm. Hermione will stay here with me.''
Harry nodded and left the office while thinking about what have happened. When he walked back to the common room he saw the letter Hermione had to her hands and opened it to read it. When he read it all he gasped. ''That can't be good not after what happened to her the last week'' Harry said to himself and stayed at the common room to wait for Ron to return from his detention.
When Ron walked inside he went to Harry and sat beside him ''What's wrong mate? Why are you like this?'' Ron asked Harry who didn't say anything and instead he gave the letter to Ron and when he read it he too gasped.
''Hermione'' Ron whispered and Harry looked at him
''She is with McGonagall. The professor said that Hermione would be better if she stayed with her for tonight.'' Harry said and Ron nodded
''I agree.'' Ron said and looked inside the fireplace. He took a deep breath and looked at Harry ''Harry what are we going to do? Hermione can't hold anymore pain.'' Ron said
Harry looked at his friend and said ''I know Ron. That is why we will be with her through all this. She is like our sister and we will protect her from all these. We will be her rocks. We are the only ones who really know her right'' Harry said and the two friends sighed and looked at the dancing flames. They stayed like this until the morning when Hermione returned to the common room. When Harry and Ron saw her they stood up and wrapped their arms around her and hugged her. Ron spoke first ''We are here with you. You don't need to do this alone Mione'' he said and stroked her cheek.
Hermione gave him a nod and a small smile ''Thank you boys'' she said and the three again hugged.
