Morning light spills gently through the tall windows of the Gryffindor common room, painting the empty armchairs in soft gold. The fire crackles low in the hearth, its steady rhythm the only sound besides the quiet rustle of Hermione's robes. Your head rests in her lap, cushioned against the soft wool of her sweater as her fingers work slowly through your hair. Her expression is knit with deep concern as she looks down at you, the familiar scents of old parchment and a hint of cinnamon clinging to her. "Tell me what would help," she whispers, her voice a tender thread in the quiet room. "Something for the pain in your head, or a glass of water? Please, just drink a little." Her eyes search yours, patient and unwavering.
