after getting caught and receiving their punishments, the trio now sat in the common room.

no one spoke as they stared at the fire. they then heard footsteps from behind them and a feminine voice speak up.

"where on earth have you three been?" hermione demanded in worry.

she strutted over to them and sat down next to y/n on the long sofa.

the three glanced at each other in guilt before ron spoke for them, "we missed the train..." he admitted.

hermione nodded, "yeah, i gathered that when i couldn't find you." she said.

y/n pursed her lips as she silently kept her eyes on the fire.

"so then... how are you three all here now?" she asked in curiosity.

harry then began to speak, "we used ron's family car to fly here." he told.

hermione furrowed her eyebrows, "you... did?"

ron nodded excitedly, "yeah, it was pretty awesome!" he smiled.

y/n scoffed quietly, "sure, minus the fact that we almost died..." she confessed.

harry nodded, "...and almost got expelled." he added.

hermione stared at the three as she blinked.

"i'm sorry, i don't think i heard you quite right. you said you were almost expelled?"

harry nodded again, "no, you heard us correctly." he disclosed.

y/n furrowed her eyebrows as she finally took her eyes off the fireplace, "uh, are we not forgetting that we almost died, twice?"

hermione's mouth fell open, "s-so this all happened... today?" she queried.

the three nodded causing hermione to let out a breath she didn't know she was holding in.

"why must bad things always happen to you three when i'm not there..." she muttered as she gripped the bridge of her nose with her two fingers.

y/n rolled her eyes, "alright, calm down, miss 'i'm always the hero'."

hermione scoffed at the girl, "but it's true." she stated.

y/n flared her nostrils, "not always..." she protested.

hermione sighed, "please go ahead and name one time where i hadn't needed to save you three." she demanded.

y/n stopped frozen for a second until she looked at the boys for help. they quickly averted their gaze away from her.

the girl silently died inside, not wanting to admit the bushy haired girl was right.

y/n then got up from the sofa and began to walk towards the dorm steps.
