Trapped in Two Worlds

Realizing The Truth

X~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~X

She woke in a similar situation in a Hospital room, but with Ron next to her, it felt wrong compared to her Sirius, 'What a weird thought' she thought. Ron stood beside her but offered no emotional support to her, this caused her to feel even more isolated. The doctor said the same thing as the other one with one addition, that she would only be able to make the choice once the month was up. They all started demanding that she stay here that this is where she belonged, none of them even bothering to ask her if she was okay. It made her want to cry, they made it seem like she was just a tool they needed and not an actual person. She wanted to go back to sleep and be with Sirius in the other reality. They all took her back to Grimmauld place, she noticed it looked horrible compared to hers. She realized she kept doing that, subconsciously calling the other universe hers. Nothing felt right in this universe anymore. Hermione went to her room and cried, she wanted to go back there, but she can't force herself to sleep, her mind was much too active to fall asleep.

Soon it was time for Lunch, she subconsciously sat next to Sirius as had become a habit because of the other universe and of course Ron had a problem with it. "I'm over here. Hermione, you should be sitting by me! You're my wife! Not his!" Ron yelled.

"It's not that big a deal Ronald, it's just a seat," Hermione said back.

"Yes, it is when you're dreaming of fucking him and being a death eater whore!" He yelled.

"Actually, in that reality, they're the good guys!" the fight kept escalating. No one spoke up to defend Hermione, she understood at that moment that this is how it will always be, she wasn't really wanted, just used when needed. Ron kept throwing insult after insult at her and she kept on defending her Sirius.

The fight ended when Ron yelled out, with the full intent of emotionally hurting Hermione "You're just an annoying insufferable mudblood!" She ran to her room and cried herself to sleep again.
