Baz POV

Baz was punching the wall when there was aggressive knocking at his door. He sighed in annoyance but made no move to open it. He heard the murmured words of a spell and the door slammed open to reveal Penelope. He flicked his eyes to the sky in a gesture that said, "Why me?".

"What the hell did you do Pitch?"

"Pitch? And I thought we were friends."

"We are. But what the hell did you do to Simon?"

"I'll have to ask you to elaborate dear Penny for I have no idea what you're talking about."

"Don't play dumb with me Pitch." She growled. She raised her wand, and Baz cursed when he realised his was across the room.

"Open your eyes, look up to the skies, and see." Muttered Penny, and the last thing Baz thought before he lost control of his mind was, I can't believe I've been bested by Bohemian Rhapsody.

Start of spell.

Baz did in fact open his eyes, but when he did he wasn't with Penny anymore. There, sitting staring at a wall, was Simon. He was just staring at it. Then Baz heard it, the voice.

"Silly little Mage's heir. Thinking he cared." Baz saw his love shiver. Was that...? No it couldn't be.

"Suppose he won't be around to protect you anymore..." It was! The humdrum. Simon was in danger. It took him a few minutes of muttering a counter spell but in the end he managed to break free.

"You see what you've done to him Pitch?" Asked Penny.

"Later." He muttered to her, and with vampire speed ran to Penny's dorm, and sat in front of Simon.

"Simon? Simon can you hear me?" There was no answer. Some sort of spell, he told himself. He looked around. The dorm was empty, which he was glad for. He wasn't sure he could deal with Agatha now. He shouldn't have turned his back to Snow. He turned back around, and then he realised. Snow was covered in blood. He was dead. And then Baz let himself scream.

He sat upright, shaking. Dreams... Vampires don't have dreams. Hell, Vampires don't sleep. He was crying. He looked around. Where was Snow? Of course he wasn't here, the fight meant he would probably be staying with Penny. Baz couldn't pull himself together. He had to see Snow. Now. He ran.

Snow was sleeping of course, but he knocked furiously on the door anyway.

"Snow I have to see you!" He shouted, leaning heavily on the door. Of course after he was leaning on it, it opened. He fell forwards into the room comically. He heard Penny laugh despite herself, she had opened the door. He didn't even have the energy to glare at her, just stood up. And his eyes searched quickly for Snow. He was still sleeping. He sank into a nearby chair and breathed a sigh of relief. Snow was ok.

"Are you alright?" Asked Penny. Baz ignored the question.

"Where's Agatha? Doesn't she dorm with you?" He asked, changing the subject. He took a shuddering breath. He couldn't pull himself together. Penny made a noise of disgust.

"With her newest boyfriend probably. She's been acting horribly lately, I can't stand her!" Baz was trying to listen, truly he was, but he felt sick. He gripped the sides of the chair as his vision spun.

"Baz are you sure you're alright?" Penny asked, kneeling in front of him. He shook his head, and took another shuddering breath.

"Here, lie down, and I'll find someone to help." She lay him down in her bed full of care, and left, shutting the door quietly behind her. Baz rolled over on his side, so he could see Simon. All the while trying to reassure himself that Simon was alright, which he was.

He wasn't sure how much time had passed since Penny had left before she returned, a small boy following her. The boy knelt in front of him.

"Baz, look at me." Said the boy.

"W-Who are you?" Asked Baz. He cursed himself inwardly. He had never felt so weak in his life. And how had he fallen asleep? How had he dreamt?

"My name is Henry. My father's a doctor, I need you to look at me Baz." This time Baz obliged. The boy did several things like take his pulse, which almost made Baz laugh, but he humoured the boy. Of course Penny must have filled the boy in on Baz being a vampire, but still the boy made some strange facial expressions when treating the older boy. Henry turned to Penny.

"You'll need to have a vampire look at him. It might just be trauma, but that I doubt. Make sure he rests, he's not strong enough to move. I find it strange how fast he's been immobilized. It's strange."

"Will he be alright?" Asked Penny quietly. Baz didn't hear the answer. The boy left, and Penny knelt down beside him, stroking his hair.

"You're going to be ok Baz. Just rest."

"Simon-"

"He'll forgive you Baz. It's only a small fight."

"If he awakes... before I... tell him I wish to talk to him and that I'm sorry." Mumbled Baz.

"Of course. Just rest Baz."

As Baz drifted off to sleep he thought he heard three strange words tumble from Penelope's mouth.

I love you.
