I was released two days later after assuring Madam Pomfrey that I would be very careful with my health. Fred and George were both ecstatic at my return and in celebration, we all lit off dungbombs in the corridors.
Breathing heavily we ran into a broom closet, listening to the dull thuds of Filch running past us. I walked out of the closet and started laughing. It was getting much too easy.
"You wanna go back to the common room?" Fred asked nudging me with his shoulder.
"Actually I have to go do something first but I'll meet you guys back there when I'm done." I answered and pushed him with a laugh.
The only problem with being out of the Hospital Wing was that not everyone knew I was out. Only some Gryffindors, Fred, George, Charlie, and the three teachers who were in the room when I woke up.
I had only gotten out today and stuck mostly to the shadows. I was planning to come to breakfast with Fred and George so everyone would know that I was out then.
I walked out the front doors and walked to Hagrids hut. I knocked on the door, nervous butterflies flying in my stomach. The door opened and I was face to face with Hagrid.
"Wha-" He started but I cut him off.
"I'm so sorry."
He pulled me into a rough hug and I gave a little laugh.
"I never should have said that stuff I was annoyed I didn't mean to go off on you."
This time he gave a laugh as he let go of me.
"Yer sorry? Who are you?" He asked and led me inside.
I had never been inside Hagrids hut and I looked around, taking it all in. There was only one room and it was small. The walls were covered with different odds and ends and the whole place reminded me very much of Hagrid. I loved it.
I looked down surprised as a large dog jumped on me licking my face in the process.
"Fang get off her." Hagrid growled and the dog, Fang, jumped off me.
"Hi ya Fang." I said petting his head.
"So when didja get out of the Hospital Wing?" He asked, busying himself with making tea.
"Just today actually not many people know I'm out just you, the Weasleys, McGonagall, Dumbledore, Snape, and Madam Pomfrey of course oh and I suppose a few Gryffindors." I answered shrugging my shoulders. He brought two cups of tea and sat in front of me on a rather squashed couch.
"Well it sure won't be a secret for long." He said and I took a sip of tea and petted Fang absentmindedly.
"I know this is my last day of being somewhat alone." I sighed and took another sip of tea.
"It'll be good fer ya. You've been alone too long."
"Not long enough."
I woke up at got dressed, not bothering to notice how all my other roommates were still asleep. I slipped into my chair by the fireplace and waited. I was waiting for the twins. We were supposed to go to the feast together because I just couldn't stand to go alone.
The door to the boys dormitory opened and the twins walked out, fully dressed goofy grins and all. I stood up as they walked up to me and walked out of the dormitory with them, laughing at Georges inability to do his tie correctly.
We walked out the portrait hole and wandered for a while. We didn't want to get to breakfast too early. I told them all about my endeavors in the hospital wing and with Hagrid and they in turn told me all about their adventures while I was sick.
"We put a dungbomb in the potions room, it was wicked. Filch almost caught Lee but it was brilliant he just dove behind a suit of armor." Fred informed me and I laughed.
"Oh and Fred and I almost got into the forbidden forest but Hagrid chased us away." George added in and I nodded.
"Sounds good but by the end of the year we have to do something big." I said and they both gave me a smile.
"Now you're speaking our language."
We were standing outside of the Great Hall. I had stopped in front of the doors, nervous butterflies flying in my stomach.
"You ready?" Fred asked and I nodded, looking at them both.
"Ready as I'll ever be." I muttered, running my fingers through my hair.
We walked through the doors and everything stopped. Even the teachers. I flashed the twins each a smile and walked to my seat, head held high and confident.
"Someone seems better." Charlie noted as I sat down across from him and talk continued.
"Uh huh." I answered, plopping a grape in my mouth as Fred and George said beside me.
"Hold on." George said and I froze.
"What?"
"Did you just eat?"
"Yeah it's what people do when they're hungry." I answered sarcastically and grabbed the sausage plate.
Everyone the three boys stared at me as a took a bite of the meat.
"What?!" I exclaimed, gaining looks from around the room.
"Well when was the last time you ate?" Charlie asked and I shrugged while pulling apart an orange.
"Thats why this is weird are you feeling okay?"
I gave the older boy a glare and ate my orange.
"No Casper he's serious should we get McGonagall?" Fred asked.
"No need, shes already coming over." George noted and I groaned.
"Miss. Potter how are you feeling this morning?" She asked and I shot glares at the boys then gave her a small smile.
"Better thanks for asking." I answered and ate another orange slice.
"Professor she's lying there is something very wrong." Charlie cut in and McGonagall looked at me alarmed.
"What's wrong?" She asked and I put my head in my hands.
"Shes eating." The twins said at the same time and she looked from me too my full plate.
"Your intelligence blows me away." She said sarcastically and I laughed, gaining more strange looks from onlookers.
"She's way too happy." Fred said and I ate another orange slice.
"I'm about to punch you in the face."
"Oh yes she's extremely pleasant to be around." McGonagall noted.
"You guys are really amazing."
"Like you could do better than us." Charlie scoffed and I smirked.
"Like you caught the snitch in that last quidditch match?" I asked. The twins told me that Gryffindor had lost the match thanks to Charlie breaking his arm.
"Hey like you could do better."
"Bet I could."
Charlie looked from his brothers to his teacher, all of whom all found their hands very interesting all of the sudden.
"You don't think that I could catch the golden snitch before Casper?" He asked, his eyebrows raised.
"Charlie you haven't seen this girl on a broom." George said and I smiled.
"Professor?" The red headed boy asked, confident that his teacher would have his back.
"She's got a lot of talent." McGonagall admitted and I smiled up at her.
"Thanks Professor." I said and she just gave me a stern look.
"Alright then Casper lets do this. Quidditch field, after your classes. We'll see who can catch the snitch first." Charlie challenged and I popped another orange slice in my mouth.
"Wouldn't miss it."
