Hermione opened her eyes to find herself curled up into a ball on the sofa in the Gryffindor common room. The events from yesterday seemed like a blur.
Throwing off her blanket, she stood up with renewed purpose.
Despite everything that happened, she felt strong.
The child she now carried needed her strength.
Hopeful of an uncertain future, she ran her hand across her stomach tenderly and smiled.
A strange excitement built up. She felt unbreakable and indestructible.
Leaving her friends momentarily, Hermione hurried back to the dorm and took in the destruction that awaited her.
Her hand went to cover her mouth in shock.
What the hell happened here?
A sea of empty bottles of Firewhisky lay discarded on the ground along with broken pieces of furniture and wood. She glanced in the direction of Draco's room anxiously.
Careful not to trod on the broken glass, she tiptoed around the lethal-looking shards and entered her room.
Sadly, she looked at the mess one last time and thought bitterly, let him deal with the mess.
Gently she ran her fingers along the bedspread, sat down, pulled a pillow to her chest and wept fresh tears of pain.
Once she calmed herself, Hermione quickly changed into her robes and headed out to meet the Headmistress.
She silently thanked Merlin for not running into Draco, but there was nothing left to say to each other.
They were on different paths now.
She threw his closed-door one last look of anguish and fled the dorm.

Hermione stood outside the stairway that led to the Headmistresses office and let out an exhilarated sigh.
She muttered the password and waited patiently for the Gargoyle to grant her access.
After a quick jog up the stairs, she knocked on the door and stood back.
"ENTER!" Came McGonagall's stern voice from inside.
Hermione timidly stepped inside the lavish room and slowly walked up to the desk.
McGonagall lowered her spectacles and studied the approaching young woman.
She tried her best to hide her current predicament, but it was plain to see the lines of suffering that creased her young face.
Minerva heard from the portraits and castle gossip that Mr Malfoy had ended their relationship without reason, but seeing the toll it had taken on the Gryffindor was heartbreaking.
She pointed to the seat and offered kindly, "Sit down, Miss Granger."
The Head girl smoothed her skirt, took the seat and toyed with her fingers nervously as McGonagall asked gently, "What can I do for you?"
