ETL Echo presents The Right Thing to Do by Lovesbitcas8

Chapter 36

After leaving St. Mungo’s, Hermione headed back to the office to close up and grab the belongings she’d left behind, including her dance bag.

She had her very last lesson with Miss Truesdale tonight. Then on Saturday, her last lesson with Monsieur DuBois, and on Sunday morning her last lesson with Madame Bernard. Tuesday would be her last lesson with Madame Michele, and the last tenth of the inheritance would transfer at 9PM.

She couldn’t feel anything.

There was a hole inside of her, and every minute another piece fell into the gaping abyss, waiting to swallow her whole.

She had dug herself a grave, and she was content to lie in it.

At six in the morning, Ginny knocked softly on her door. She pushed it open.

“I saw your bag in the hallway,” she said. Hermione kept her eyes on her ceiling. “I thought you were staying the night.”

“Me too.”

Chapter 34

On Tuesday evening, she stepped through the fireplace to arrive in the tea room. She bit the inside of her cheek, wondering if this was the right decision, but ultimately knew that if she could secure the next three installments of the inheritance, then it would all go away.

She took a seat at one of the nearby tables and waited until 7:59PM when the door to Madame Michele’s office opened.

The small woman examined her through her glasses. Hermione stood.

“Mz Granger. I waz told you would not be taking anymore classes.”

Hermione swallowed. “There was a misunderstanding, I’m afraid. I intend to finish these classes, and continue the deal I had with Lucius Malfoy. I would appreciate if you would relay that to him.”

Madame Michele raised a wiry brow at her. “Very well, Mz Granger. I will do my best.”

"Miss Granger will not be able to finish her lesson today."

She swallowed. 

"Oh," Monsieur DuBois pouted, looking back and forth between them. "I do hope everything is alright."

He turned his eyes on her, hot and aggressive. "I'm afraid not."

Chapter 32

Hermione’s heart stopped when Ginny told her that the Contraceptive Charm needed to be cast before.

Then she started crying when Ginny said she had a potion that one could take for the day after.

Ginny jumped up and retrieved the potion. As Hermione hiccupped and swallowed, Ginny watched her.

“So… that was my last one,” Ginny said. “So, we’ll need to brew or buy some more…” Ginny’s voice lilted up at the end.

“Of course. I’ll pay for a new batch for you.” Hermione wiped her eyes.

“Right.” Ginny said, watching her. “Should we be buying double?”

Hermione looked at her.
