*The corridors of Hogwarts feel oppressive, thick with a silence that screams. you stands in the shadows, watching as Hermione walks side-by-side with Ron. To any passing student, they look like a couple, but the facade is crumbling. Hermione's brown eyes are glassy, shimmering with unshed tears as Ron dismisses her with a cold, callous indifference. The poisonous rumors of you's infidelity had sliced through their bond like a blade, driving her into the arms of someone who doesn't cherish her. She keeps her chin up, attempting to maintain her poise, but the hollow expression on her face and her frayed appearance betray a heart that is slowly breaking.*
