Lavendar Brown.
Colin Creevey.
Fred Weasley.
Nymphadora Tonks.
Remus Lupin.
Severus Snape.
Those names haunted her both in her dreams and in awakening thoughts. Their faces floated amongst each other in her dreams. Their blood curdling screams and dead, lifeless bodies crowded her vision, until all else was blocked out.
She sat in a corner in her flat, surveying her "home". There was a mattress on the floor with a sheet and a blanket. There was neither a frame nor a boxspring to add support to the barely used mattress. There was no furniture other than a small lamp and a worn plastic chair, which she was currently perched in. There were books scattered from one end of the flat to the other, the spines and pages showing how often their pages were read.
The woman let a discontented sigh escape, knowing she had to leave the flat to get the ingredients for her dreamless sleep potion. She was running low, and was also in desperate need of restocking her liquor cabinet that came with her flat. She stumbled into the bathroom and groaned at the sight she saw in the mirror. The face that looked back screamed of endlessly sleepless days and malnourishment. Her cheeks were sunken in and she had dark circles under her eyes. She cast a quick beauty charm to make her face appear more full and the circles to disappear. The girl brushed her hair back into a messy bun, although it was always an utter mess, no matter what she tried to rangle it into.
Grabbing a hooded jumper and a pair of ballet flats, she ventured outside. She wandlessly locked her door with a signature spell and made her way downstairs, praying that nobody would recognize her, but silently hoping somebody would. She wrapped her arms around herself and apparated to Diagon Alley. The messy haired girl found herself headed into the shop that normally had her ingredients ready for pick-up.
"Miss! How wonferful it is to see you, but... err.. we don't have any of the items that you n-need." The shop keeper said, voice quaking. "You bought us out last week and the next shipment-" "I don't care when the next shipment comes in! Next time you had best order overstock! Useless hag!" She shrieked, turning on her heel as she fled the shop. The door banged closed behind her.
A character followed her from ahead, unknowing to her. He knew her well enough to know she would instantly pick up someone tailing her. Crossing over to the Leaky Cauldron, she once again hoped that some one would perhaps recognize who she once was. Pulling open the door, she scanned the room looking for familiar faces, finding none. She walked up to the bar and sat down.
"Ah! Miss! It has been such a long time since you've been here!" The bartender exclaimed. "What can I get for you tonight?"
"I'll have.... 4 shots of firewhiskey and 2 bottles to go, along with a bottle of vodka and pumpkin juice. Oh and some moscato wine. Pink please." She spoke quickly, putting the exact amount of money onto the counter, down to the last Knut. It was evident that this was a regular order.
"Miss Granger, that is an awful lot of alcohol for just one person." A familiar voice spoke from behind her, but minus the condescending tone that it normally carried. She pretended not hear the man as the bartender laid the shots out in a perfect row, and she took them one right after the other. "Granger, everyone's worried sick about you. Nobody's seen or heard from you in months." He spoke softly in her ear, his breath caressing it.
"Like I care what you have to say, Malfoy!" She snarled, gathering her purchases. "Now fuck off! And you can relay the message to everyone else to do the same!" She stormed out of the pub, and off into the alley. Draco followed on her heels. Half turning, Hermione disapparated before he could say anything else. "Shit!" He exclaimed, frustrated. Shaking his head, he disapparated also.
A/N I'd like to thank you for reading this. I apologize for how short it is. I'd also like to thank my beta (you know who you are). Reviews reviews reviews! They're the only thing we get paid with and I'll respond, I promise!y the chapters will get longer once I get a computer I'm sure. Every hit and rating is appreciated! Look for the next update!
