He had not seen her at breakfast before his trip down to Hogsmeade with Mandy, nor had seen Hermione anywhere in the village as he'd popped round to the sweets shop, and to go glance at robes he could barely afford. He'd picked up some ink, and more parchment, all the while thinking about what Mandy had been so kind to share about she and Harry.
Friends. They'd been friends for the longest time before the romance began, he idly thought as he headed back towards school, picking up with some of his fellow Gryffs as he went. The explosion and yelling had stopped them all, and a spike of fear raced through Ron as they had turned back to see what all the fuss was about.
The moment they'd gotten closer, a building had exploded, and Ron saw Harry with Mandy but no sign of Hermione anywhere. He turned and ran back towards the school, hoping that she'd done what she'd said she was doing and was in the library, studying still. This irrational fear that she might not be there coursed through his brain and he couldn't predict how he'd react if he arrived and she was not there.
He mounted the stairs, two and three at a time as he flew up one flight then another, to finally arrive on the floor where he sprinted to the library door. He hit it and stopped, winded with his hand at his side as he tried to walk in nonchalantly, so as not to draw too much attention to himself from the librarian. His eyes swept the room as he moved, trying to find her at a table or in the stacks, reading or studying but definitely safe.
