Summary: This fic is a series of missing moments from the time H/R&H were at Shell Cottage, beginning immediately after they disapparated from Malfoy Manor. JKR shows us what was going on with Harry, but this is my version of what could have happened with Ron and Hermione after one of the most emotional/disturbing events in the entire series. As much as I love the kiss in the room of requirement, I'm letting that develop a bit sooner. Other than that detail, this piece works with DH. Oh, and I didn't write Fleur's accent, but you all know what she sounds like.
