The buzzing from the call box sent a grinning Hermione to the door and with a quick ‘I’m coming down!’ she was out and jumping in to the elevator. They all waited for ages for her to come back, each person was hoping the next would start a conversation so that it wouldn’t be an awkward silence. Wanda had been really excited about Hermione’s friend coming but she was now worried that Hermione wouldn’t spend as much time with her as she did before. Tony was perfectly calm, he’d made sure before saying yes that it was indeed a woman that would be visiting and not some old lover…not that it really mattered as he still had Jarvis to compete with. He glared jealous daggers at the android who was leafing through a book that she’d handed him before leaving.
“So, Jarvis” Stark said with a smirk, the tone of his voice brought the attention of the others in the room “Have you and Hermione had sex?”
“No” He answered, turning his blue eyes to the other man “Should we have?”
“If she really liked you” Tony said “She’d have already put the moves on you”
“Don’t listen to him, Jarvis” Natasha said “That’s not how it works…” The door swung open and Hermione came in carrying a bag and breathing heavily while her friend, a pretty young woman with waist-length dirty blonde hair, wide grey eyes, pale skin and a vacant smile on her face, walked in behind her looking at complete ease.
“Did you take the stairs?” Pietro asked as he stood up and took the bags and brought them to Hermione’s bedroom where Luna would be staying.
“Yes” Hermione gasped “Luna said that the elevator was going to break and refused to get on it”
“That’s stupid!” Tony snapped “She knows nothing about…”
“Mr. Stark” Friday, the voice that had taken Jarvis’s spot as the main computer for the house, called to him “I am sorry to report that the elevator will be down all day today for an update and cleaning that I have already started”
“Why wasn’t I informed before?!” He snapped.
“I tried to tell you sir” She answered “You told me to shut up or you would have a virus introduced in to my system”
“I didn’t…” He started when everyone looked at him “Sorry, Friday”
“Everyone” Hermione said after catching her breath “This is Luna Lovegood, a friend I went to school with”
Luna told Hermione that she would like to shower and soon enough she had disappeared in to Hermione’s bedroom to use her bathroom. Hermione turned her beaming smile to the others and then went over and plopped down on the couch next to Jarvis, reaching over and plucking a chip from his plate and popping it in to her mouth. She sighed and leaned back against the couch looking from Jarvis to Tony and then over to Bruce and then Steve before she dropped her head back.
“What’s going on?” She asked and everyone (except Jarvis) tried to feign innocence “Tell me!”
“Tony was being a jerk” Wanda answered “That’s all”
“No, I wasn’t” Stark answered glaring at the others.
“He was asking Jarvis if you’d had sex with him yet” Natasha told her, she liked Tony and they were friends but he was being an immature jerk and Hermione had the right to know…plus, it wasn’t like Jarvis would keep it quiet too long.
“What?!” Hermione’s eyes widened “You asshole. You git…jerk…pervert!” Everyone expected Hermione to be upset however, none of them expected to see Tony actually look hurt by her words.
“I just…” He started.
“I don’t care” She snapped “What I do or don’t do with Jarvis is our business and not yours!”
“So you are going to…” He asked standing up and glowering down at her.
“If I want to, it’s none of your business” Hermione told him “And don’t try to intimidate me”
“I’ll…” Stark started to say as he advanced on her reaching out and gripping her arm to keep her from hitting him which she appeared to be getting ready to do. Two things happened at once that no one could seem to understand for a few seconds as they all just stared. Jarvis, filled with an emotion that Hermione explained once as rage, had stood up from his spot on the couch and slammed his hand fiercely in to Tony’s chest sending him flying across the room while Hermione screamed “Expelliarmus!” which sent the android who had the unfortunate luck of being in front of her at the time flying about twenty-five feet back and cashing in to the wall, leaving him dazed.
“What’s happened?” Luna asked, running in the room from hallway wearing her pajamas. Her wand was out and her wide eyes were darting wildly around the room taking in everything before she sighed and slid her wand down her shirt. She ran her fingers through her hair pulled it back, twisted it and then shoved her wand though so it was holding the hair out of her face “What happened?”
“Jarvis!” Hermione shrieked before running over and kneeling next to him though he seemed to be perfectly okay. She was beside herself, checking his head, looking in to his eyes and touching his neck. He pulled away from her slightly and turned his body away from her leaning against the wall and shooting a look at Steve who nodded and walked over to Hermione pulling her away “What are you doing?!”
“Hermione” He muttered “You were touching him…you hardly ever touch him and he was…enjoying it a little bit too much”
“Oh” She blushed and looked back in time to see him standing and fleeing the scene. Meanwhile, Wanda told Luna what had happened while she went over to see if Tony was still alive. She poked him in the side and he groaned before he shot up with a flurry of swears and muttered oaths.
“YOU!” He pointed at Hermione stalking closer “I have opened my home to you, allowed you to make changes here and haven’t asked for anything in return and you try to curse me?!” She opened her mouth to defend herself but he shook his head “No!” She jumped and her eyes filled with tears and she started to shake slightly “I have tried and tried again to be decent but not anymore, either you give me a reason that I should let you stay or get the hell out of my house!” Hermione let out a loud sob and took off running to her bedroom with her hands covering her face.
“I wish that you wouldn’t yell at her” Luna said “She doesn’t mean to react the way she did…”
“Don’t make excuses for her…” Tony said.
“Listen to me” Luna snapped “I’m going to tell you what she should have told you guys ages ago” She heaved a great sigh, send a silent prayer to merlin that Hermione wouldn’t be angry with her and then started to tell them about the years at Hogwarts that led up to the war, her search for the Horcruxes and then the final battle.

There was a knock on Hermione’s bedroom door an hour later and when she told the person to ‘sod off’ she heard the telltale sounds of shuffling feet and a male voice mutter the phrase back to himself. She smiled a little to herself and stood up, wiping away the leftover tears with her index fingers she calmed her breathing and then opened the door. Jarvis stood there looking confused, she nodded her head to the side a little and moved out of the way of the door to let him pass. She watched him for a moment and then shut the door and followed him as he walked around the private room, a room that he’d never entered since the first day. She had always gone to his bedroom but he never even considered going to hers, well not sense the first night she was there and he was picking through her stuff. Now that he understood what it was like to have his own stuff and how he didn’t like anyone (other than Hermione) going through it the thought that he had so rudely gone through her stuff embarrassed him.
“Are you okay?” He asked, looking at her sweetly.
“Yes” She lied, he looked at her for a few seconds scanning her and then nodded a little to himself.
“No, you’re not” He said after that brief moment “You were crying, I heard you running down the hallway…what did he do to you?”
“Does it matter?” She asked, walking past him and looking down at her photo album “He was right. I’ve been presumptuous and rude and maybe instead of inviting Luna here I should have just gone home”
“I will…feel…strange if you leave” He said turning to look at her “An empty sort of feeling…I can already feel it”
“You’d miss me” Hermione told him “That’s what it is and I’d miss you too” She walked over and was now looking over the covers of the books that she’d been packing up and he stood close to her. Turning her eyes to him he offered a nervous smile at her and she gave her own, Hermione walked over to him and raised her hand to his face searching his eyes for anything to tell her to stop. When they remained blank she traced her fingertips over his jawline, marveling over how soft his face was, then over his lips, up over his perfect nose over his brow line and was about to run her fingers over the jewel at the center of his forehead when the sound of a throat being cleared pulled her back in to her mind. It felt as if she wasn’t in charge of her body for a moment there and when she came back to herself she looked at Jarvis. His eyes were closed, his lips were now parted and she could hear his slightly labored and shaky breathing. She pulled away and looked at Luna standing there watching them with a small, knowing smile on her face.
“I must admit something” Luna said as Jarvis seemed to come back to himself and nodded at her before leaving the room.
“What’s going on?” Hermione asked.
“I told them everything” Luna admitted “They needed to know” Hermione gritted her teeth and turned away from her friend “Tony feels really bad…Hermione!”
“I don’t care” She said “I should have been the one that told them, not you!”
“Would you have?” Luna asked her honestly “Would you have ever told them?”
“No” She answered “But why do they need to know any of it?”
“Because you need to heal” Luna answered “You can’t keep it all bottled up inside you forever, Hermione” She grabbed her friends hands and looked in to her eyes “I know what happened, you know that. I know the terrors that you faced, I faced them too and you know that I also have those night terrors…” Tears built up in her wide eyes and were mirrored in Hermione’s “I relived the battle every night for the first year, but talking about it helps. Letting others know and letting them help you however they’re able is the only way to help ease the horrors that can plague you, forever”
“I can’t…” Hermione whispered “Maybe it was a mistake inviting you. When you weren’t here I was able to pretend that there was nothing wrong with me, that I was happy and normal…but you brought up all those memories and in just a few short hours”
“I’m not leaving” Luna said firmly “You invited me here and I’ve shown up to find that you need me more than you think and I won’t leave until I’m sure that you are healed or healing…and if you hate me by the end then I’m sorry”
“I won’t hate you” Hermione sobbed and hugged her friend.
After the hard moments things became a little lighter as Luna told her the fun stuff that had been going on with the Wizarding world. She was told how Draco Malfoy had found his fiancée at the time, Astoria Greengrass in bed with three Quidditch players and much to Hermione’s horror (and disgust) Ronald had been one of them. Then she told her about Harry and Ginny breaking up and how Harry had actually asked her out but she told him that it would have been like dating her brother for her and though he was upset they were still friends. Ginny and Draco were now dating. Luna told her that while Ginny had always been very kind to her she couldn’t help but feel that that she had some sort of hidden agenda. Hermione couldn’t help but agree but merely pointed out that Ginny had had a sparse upbringing and there was the possibility that she was looking out for number one, making sure that she chose a husband that would be able to take care of her financially. Once Hermione was calmer than she’d been since the fight Luna suggested they go out and get something to eat, Hermione noted that she was avoiding talking about what she’d walked in on when she’d come in. Thor had gone back to Asguard and had brought Banner and Natasha with him though he claimed they’d be back in a day or so. Tony was no-where to be found, the twins were playing the Xbox and Steve was sitting outside.
“Hermione” Wanda flung herself in to the witches arms “Why did you not tell me?!” She looked a little hurt “I would have helped as much as I could”
“Hermione” Steve said from the sliding door leading out to the roof “If you want to talk…believe me when I say that I know what you’re going through” Hermione nodded and walked over to him.
“Thanks” She whispered “But I think my experience was a bit different” Luna dragged the eavesdropping twins in to the kitchen and closed the door to get Wanda to teach her how to cook which greatly amused Pietro.
“Not too much” He answered “We’re both vastly different from those around us whether it’s being a super soldier” He made a face to himself “Or the brightest witch of her age” She dropped her head back and he chuckled, confirming that Luna had told them about her intelligence as well “We were both singled out by the enemy and hunted, forced to do things that no one should ever have to do…seen things that no one, no matter how much someone reads about it, would ever understand” Hermione looked down at her feet to keep her emotions normal. Steve reached forward and pulled her against him, wrapping his arms around her holding her there. She was like stone in his arms for several minutes before she melted and clutched on to his shirt, she was shaking but not crying or sobbing just holding on to him as if he was the only thing that was keeping her on the ground. He lowered his head to the top of her head and kissed her hair and then her forehead. His eyes locked on to hers and he had to repeat to himself that she was hysterical and now would not be the time to kiss her. His mind was saying that and his body was singing a different tune, he leaned over and pressed his lips against hers while his mind screamed to not take advantage of her in this state. The kiss deepened and he slid his hand in to her hair, tangling it up in her curls and tipping her head back a little. The kitchen door opened and then a glass breaking tore the two apart, Hermione turned and gasped when she saw Wanda’s hands come up to cover her face before running off. While following her cousins retreat Hermione found Jarvis standing in the hallway watching her with a frozen expression. He looked no different than he usually did as he turned away from and went back to his bedroom but the chunk of wall that he dropped told a different story. She looked at the damage of the wall he’d been standing near, finding a huge chunk missing and sighed. What the hell was she doing. She went back to her room and they all heard the lock click in the door.
“What the hell are you doing?!” Pietro snapped at the first avenger “You manage to hurt my sister and my cousin…”
“I didn’t mean to…” He tried.
“It’s something Hermione does” Luna whispered “When she’s forced to think about the war she just…changes. In all honesty, she’ll become quite the little tart and I think it’s because sex will make the person who is talking about it forget the conversation and letting herself be used like that is a punishment she seems to think she deserves”
“But I…” Steve started.
“Wanda’s angry” Stark said “She’s also dangerous when she gets angry and her anger towards someone who is a war-hero suffering from PTSD and could be suicidal could be deadly” Pietro paled slightly “And Jarvis is jealous, angry, hurt…he’s feeling emotions that he is still new to and we know he could be dangerous”
“Not towards Hermione” Luna said “Just trust me on that one”
“We need to smooth this over quickly” Stark said as he inspected the damage done to his wall “When Wanda calms down enough to think clearly there’s a chance that she’ll start messing with Hermione’s head”
A/N: Okay, so I know that Hermione’s a bit of OOC in this chapter but as a sufferer of PTSD plus severe depression I know that I can go from happy to angry to sad and then all over the place. LOL. Sex is also a way that many people use to try to block out unwanted memories, stop people from helping them and just…feel. PLEASE REVIEW!!!!
