Room 308, Friday morning- NFB

[smartestone]

Hermione's just about finished her letter back to Ginny, though she hasn't been doing much lately so it isn't very long. Maybe she had been waiting to do something before she actually sent it. Either way she's just sealing it up and deciding she should take it to the post office when she goes into town for the music festival.

The door's open.


[For Cedric.]

"Voldemort had you killed," she says, and really quietly, adds, "Avada Kedavra."

"The Killing Curse?" Cedric goes pale and coughs. "My family knows I died?"

[smartestone]

She nods, wincing a little. "Harry got a hold of the portkey, and brought you back with him. They know."

"I was going to die," he says flatly. "If I hadn't been sent away, I was going to die. I should be dead."

[smartestone]

"But you're not," she reminds him. "You're still here, and I'm glad you are."

"But I should be," he says and can't get that thought out of his head. "I should go."

[smartestone]

She nods a little, frowning. "I'm sorry."

He just shakes his head, opens the door, and walks away quickly.
