Hate you
Hermione looks anxious. “I-” Hermione runs out of the room and goes to her dorm.
-In the Gryffindor common room-
Hermione is freaking out and Ron comes downstairs looking ragged. “Mione, bloody ‘ell. Are you alright?” Hermione shakes her head. Ron gets closer to her and gives her a kiss. “You’re alright. Did you forget a test or some bollocks like that?” Hermione shakes her head and pulls away. “I need to go.” Ron shakes his head. “I don’t think so. I think you need to stay right here and not move.” Hermione tries to pull her arm away from Ron. “Ron let me go.” Ron tries to pull her closer to his chest. “Ronald Weasley let me go!” Hermione rips her arm out of his grasp and runs towards Pansy’s and Catherine’s dorm. Ron follows her until she heads towards the dungeons. Hermione gathers herself and knocks on Catherine and Pansy’s door. From inside she can hear the sounds of panicked breathing and gentle shushing. “Shh. Shh. You’re alright, love. He can’t get you in here. Do you want to be held or do you want me to back away?” Pansy makes a stifled whimper. “Hold me please?” “I’ll need to take care of your wounds soon my love.” Hermione raises her fist to knock on the door. “Who is it?” “It’s Hermione.” She whispers hoarsely. “Pansy darling, are you okay if she comes in?” -Silence- “You can come in. Shut the door behind you.” Hermione quietly enters the room where Pansy is sitting on the floor having a panic attack. She holds her arms out to Hermione. Catherine moves back so Hermione can sit near Pansy. Catherine looks slightly jealous. “I need to go to the library. I’ll be back soon. Don’t let Pansy hurt herself.” Catherine leaves and goes into the library to have her own breakdown. She hits her head and bites her lip until she bleeds. Hermione comes to find her. “Catherine? Are you alright?” “Go back to Pansy.” “Something’s wrong. What is it?” “Nothing Mione. ‘M just tired.” “No you aren’t. I’ve seen you tired. This isn’t it.” “Bloody fucking hell Hermione! You just can’t stop! You want to fix me so badly you entirely forget that I am a person!” Hermione looks taken aback but now she’s pissed because she’s being accused. “I know you’re a person! I am trying to provide you with what you provided me!” Catherine glares at her. “I don’t need your help. I am strong enough without you or Pansy or anyone else!” Pansy had just walked into the library as Catherine made her declaration. “So that’s what you really feel like. You don’t need or want me.” Pansy looks hurt and pissed and goes to flounce off. “Don’t leave love.” Catherine stares at Pansy. Pansy flips Catherine off. “You’re a shit person to date. Hermione stares at Catherine. “You may not need us but you’ll want us soon enough.” With that Hermione follows Pansy. Catherine stares at the floor where Hermione had just been.
-For the next two weeks Catherine is completely alone and has deteriorated quickly. She knocks on her dorm room door-
“Pansy? I want to talk. I have things I need to say.” Pansy opens the door looking pissed off. “The fuck do you want?” Hermione is laid out behind her blushing furiously, her puffy labia lips dripping. Catherine stares at Hermione all spread out with a spreader bar. “I have something to talk about but I can see you’re busy. Can I watch?”
