Although Hermione's Healer was satisfied enough with her progress to release her from St. Mungo's the morning after her discussion with Antonin, it was almost mid-afternoon before she was allowed to walk out of the damned building she hoped to never be inside of again. She was irritable and exhausted by the time she entered the hated cottage. Under strict instructions that she continue to rest at home, she took another disgusting potion and climbed into bed. With another promise that he wasn't going anywhere, Hermione fell asleep content with the knowledge that her husband was nearby.
