I Fell Into Your Arms

Chapter 5: Caught in the Act

Once again, Ron was at it. He was knocking his wife around. After she had suffered a few bruises, he brought her to their bed.

Hermione was terrified. His "lessons" were only getting more intense and violent as time went on. Hermione had only became a memory in the wizarding world. Ron effectively kept her hidden away.

*

"I miss Hermione." Ginny sighed as her stomach began to grow.

"I do too, Gin."

"Lets go visit her! She hasnt been seen in years. I wonder if shes still with that prat of a brother of mine." Ginny mused.

It had been 8 months since the Pottees visited the Weasleys.

"We will have to see." Harry answered.

*

"Amelia, have you heard from Hermione lately?"

"Not since she came for dinner 6 years ago. Why?" Amelia frowned.

"I have a feeling she needs me." Sirius sighed as he got up for the fireplace.

"Sirius, dont let them see you. Please." Amelia begged.

"What am I going to witness?" Sirius rounded on his wife.

"Promise me something." Amelia kissed Sirius' cheek.

"Anything."

"Dont kill."

"Uh...ok I promise." Sirius answered.

*

"Please Ron! What did I do this time?!" Hermione sobbed

"You tried to leave, thats what!" Ron bellowed as Hermione whimpered

"Please Ill do anything to make it up to you." Hermione whispered through her tears.

"Anything?" Rons eyebrow arched up.

Hermione wanted to throw up. "You have my word.

Ron smirked and rasied his wand. "Cruccio!"

Hermione screamed as flames and needles touched her body. The pain was so intense, so much more than when Bellatrix had tortured her.

"Come on pathetic!" Ron spat as he released the curse and brought Hermione up to their room.

He threw her upon the bed and began to hiss insults at her. Hermione began sobbing from the pain Ron gave her. She wanted to be with her dad.

She didnt dare tell anyone about her relationship with Sirius, but now she wished she did.

*

When Sirius had arrived at Hermiones house, he strained his ears. Faintly he could hear sobbing and screams from upstairs.

Only after Sirius was upstairs the Potters had arrived. Ginny looked at Harry then at the mess about Rons house. A loud shrill scream caused the pair to look at each other and run upstairs.
