A few days ago I had a thought and I can't let it go. A headcanon (and prompt?) when H/Hr are married. Just imagine:
Harry wakes up from a terrible nightmare in the middle of the night. He's panicking and can't breathe properly. Hermione immediately wakes up as if sensing his pain and gives him a glass of water she has prepared as she moves closer to Harry. She takes his hand and grips it tightly to calm him down as she did at his parents' grave. Harry is still struggling but she's there, Hermione is there and that's all that matters. Soon he's feeling better again but he doesn't say a word. Neither of them have to say a single word to understand because they know each other that well. Their mutual understanding goes far beyond anything else. Hermione knows what's happened and how Harry is feeling and he knows that she is with him and she's there to stay. Their hands and soft touches express every unsaid thought. And as their foreheads touch lightly their souls unite and they both know it's all going to be okay because they have hold of each other and they'll never let go.
