Hermione was sitting doing her homework with her two best friends. She was so frustrated! The two of them were bickering back and forth about ruddy Quidditch when they were supposed to be working on their Potions essays. Hermione slammed her hands down onto the table, causing the two boys to stop arguing and look at her. "Would you two just shut the hell up? I have a pounding headache and I'm exhausted. So please, let's just finish these essays so I can go to bed. All right?" The two of them nodded, and they returned to their work.
Hermione sighed. She had not felt well at all recently. All she wanted to do was sleep. No matter how many hours she got, it was never enough. And this bloody headache won't go away. Hermione rubbed her temples. Harry watched her before he said, "Hermione, maybe you should go and see Madame Pomfrey." Ron nodded, "Yeah, we're worried about you." She shook her head, "No I'm alright, it's probably just from all this stress." Harry and Ron looked at her skeptically. She stood up, "You know what, I'm just going to go to bed. I'll check your essays in the morning." Hermione made her way back to her dormitory, practically crawling her way up the stairs. Hopefully some sleep will make me feel better.
The next morning, Ginny had to come and wake her up. "Mione, how are you feeling? I was sent to 'checkup' on you." She giggled, and Hermione just rolled over. "I'm fine," she sighed, "I just don't feel like getting up." Ginny stood, and pulled the covers off of her half-sleeping friend. "Well that is just too bad!"
Hermione groaned, "Why?" Ginny just continued to laugh. "Hermione, it's the first Quidditch game of the season, against Slytherin. You have to go! We need to support our house, plus you need to support me, Harry, and Ronald. So. Up. You. Get." With each word, she slowly pulled Hermione up and out of bed. Hermione laughed and pushed her friend away.
"Fine, I'm up. I'll be cheerful for everyone, okay? But only because you asked." Ginny smiled and made her way to the Great Hall, leaving Hermione to get dressed.
As Ginny sat down, Ron turned to his sister, his eyes full of worry. "Is she okay Gin?" Ginny sighed, "Yeah, she's up. She's just so depressed. And she doesn't feel too good. I just feel awful for her. She has gone through so much." Harry sighed, "I feel the same too." Ginny shook her head, "Harry, it's different. They were going to get married. He even bought her a ring. She doesn't know that though. Imagine if you lost me." Harry frowned, "I had no idea. I guess if I lost you, I'd lose myself too." Ron nodded, "Poor Mione. I wish we could do something for her."
The three sat in silence until Ron had an idea. "Maybe we'll find something at the headquarters." He paused, "No, that's a bad idea. Never mind guys." The three of them were so lost in their thoughts that they didn't even hear Hermione sit down next to them.
She broke them from their thoughts as she said, "So guys, ready for the big match today?" She smiled, doing her best to let her friends know she was alright. Ron nodded, "I'm really nervous of course, but we're going to kick Slytherin's arse!" Harry and Ginny nodded in agreement, and a few cheers were heard along the table. Hermione smiled. "You guys will be great! I just know it!"
Hermione heard a laugh come from behind her. She turned in her seat to see Malfoy and his cronies standing over them. "I doubt that Granger," he drawled. "We've been practicing really hard this year, just so we can knock down the Boy-Who-Won't-Die and the Weasels." Hermione stood up, "Shove off Malfoy." He took a step forward, "Make me Mudblood." Hermione took a step back, smirking. Malfoy had a confused look on his face. When he heard a stern voice come from behind him, he realized why she had such a smug look on her face.
"Mr Malfoy, how dare you use such foul language! You have a month's worth of detentions with Mr Filch for that." Professor McGonagall was furious. She had heard the whole conversation. "Now go back to your table or the field… NOW." The three boys ran off.
Hermione smiled at her Head of House. "Thank you Professor." Minerva smiled, "No problem." She turned to the Quidditch players, "Good luck team! Make me proud!" The whole table burst into cheers, everyone smiling and laughing. Hermione smiled too. I'm glad Ginny dragged me out of bed. She waved to her friends as she watched them make their way down towards the field.
Neville and Luna came up to her. "Hermione, would you like to sit with us at the match?" She nodded, "I'd love to. Thanks!" The three of them made their way down to the pitch. Hermione listened as Luna talked about some mythical made up plant, while Neville listened intently. They are just so perfect for each other. Neville ran ahead of them to get them some good seats.
Once they were alone, Luna turned to Hermione. "I'm sorry Hermy." She grinned; Luna had such a silly nickname for her. She waited as Luna continued, "I knew about you and the Black fellow. He seemed quite nice. Smart like you." She paused. "If you ever need anything, I'm here. I have all sorts of remedies, mediations, and coping methods that you can use." Hermione smiled, feeling the tears prick in the corners of her eyes. She hugged Luna. "Luna, you are the best. Thank you so much."
Hermione was glad to have Luna as a friend. Yes, she was weird at times and believed in completely unscientific things, but she had a big heart. The two of them got along great, despite everyone believing that they were too different to get along.
They made their way towards Neville, who had saved them front row seats. She watched as Neville held Luna's hand and she smiled. Today was a good day. Hermione was excited. She hoped Gryffindor would beat Slytherin! She watched intensely as Madame Hooch blew the whistle, signaling for the game to begin.
