Dramonie - Love don't cost a thing-

Recovery.

Hermione.

I awake, my throat feels raw, my eyes are so sore, and my breathing is still hard from the smoke I had inhaled in the forest, I still have no idea how we got back here, but thank goodness we got back here, and of all things alive.  What is wrong with me to always get into messes, I really do have something wrong with me, I just hope it passes, I must look like a complete idiot, not even able to fully control my powers, I can only imagine what Hunter will think of all this, I hate to think what he will say and do.

I open my eyes and  see Hunter opposite me in a chair, looking at me seriously, the look is a not happy look, so I guess he saw Draco with me, probably thinks something happened. I have no idea what I will say, but I will be honest the easiest thing for me to do, and what comes naturally is telling the truth, sometimes people don't want to believe the truth, and believe something happened when in fact nothing happened, making something from nothing.

"It's not what you think." That comes out in a scratchy voice, it really hurts to talk, more then I thought it would.

"And since you know me so well what do you think I am thinking?" Hunter says angry. His arms are crossed, waiting patiently for what I am about to say, and if you want me to be honest, I have no idea what I will say to him, because deep down I know that he will not believe me no matter what I say. It just seems hopeless to me, and my throat is really sore and I wonder if I should even waste my breathe on this situation.

"I wanted to get away from all, the stress of the first day was getting to me.  So I went in the woods to try and calm down, and I actually had, I fell sleep and woke up to spiders surrounding me." I say, the look of anger fills up his face.

"Draco." He says so angry it makes me shake.

"I didn't know he was there, I was just as shocked when I woke up to see him trying to fend off the spiders from me." I say honestly.

"I don't want to hear the lies. The group and I have agreed that you can not control your powers, I was going to bind them but I think it would be better if I take them from you, so you don't do any more damage or hurt someone." Hunter said to me, why is he even doing this? Who gave him to right to take away my powers, it was my birth right, a part of me and he just wants to take that away from me.

"That is not fair you can't just take them away from me, they are my birth right, it is a part of me." I try explaining to him, he just shrugs his shoulders and places a red ring on to his finger.

"I am really sorry but I have to do this it is best for the entire group, and I have to think about everyone's interest not just yours." He places his hand with the ring above me in the centre of where my heart is, the ring starts to grow, as I feel weakness overwhelm me, I try to move to get away from him but I cant move. I feel my powers leave me and it is a very painful experience as if he is ripping something from me.  I see the different colours all mixed together leaving my body and going into the ring.

When it is done I am so mad, I take off the engagement ring and throw it across the room, not caring if it got lost or if it broke, what was it to me anyway he just took something important to me away from me. I have these deep feeling of emptiness enter my body as I feel dead inside, no emotions enter me, wiped away from what he just did, there is nothing for him.

"Hunter leave, I don't want to be with you any more, it's official this is a brake up, you have betrayed me." I say in an unemotional voice, the anger leaves his face and is replaced with sadness, but I do not care, he started this, making me feel empty and dead, I am not full of life or spirit, I don't even know how I am going to handle day to day.

"Hermione it pains me to do this, but I had to." Hunter starts, I glare at him.

"No you did not. Just get out of here before I scream and accuse you of indecency." Hunter stands up and walks towards the door before he leaves he turns to look at me tears in his eyes "I'm sorry." He says, I shake my head. "GET OUT!" I scream, that gets madam Pomfrey's attention, she rushes into the room and tells him to leave me alone, I roll onto my  side and face the wall, I just stare at it not saying a word, as tears fall out my eyes.
