Re: Rose and Hugo
Hermione had stood around for the better part of the evening, not knowing what to do with herself-numb. Watching Molly with Fred and Bill made Hermione miss her own children desperately. Just as she beginning to contemplate returning home, they arrived. Hugo rushed into her arms, and she hugged him, almost squeezing the the life out of him.
"Hugo..Rose, you're here."
Seeing the tears in Rose's eyes she went to her next, wrapping her in arms, as she had many times when she was a child.
"Sweetie, oh Rosie, it's going to be fine. It really is."
Hermione didn't really believe the words coming out of her mouth, but she had to make her children believe them. They needed their mother to be strong-she had to be strong. Looking over Rose's head to where Hugo was standing, despondently, she directed her next words to both of them.
"You are both safe-we're all here-the family's here. We are going to make it through this."
