Broken – Chapter 4

Harry ran out of the room of requirement, tears stinging his eyes. Had Draco really just said that? his best friend fancied him and he didn't know what to do. Did Draco want to be with Blaise now? Harry was so angry he was now crying, he turned round and punched the closest wall which was a stupid idea cause it hurt. Harry's hand started bleeding and swelling up. Sighing Harry made his way to the hospital wing, how the hell was he going to explain this to Madam Pomfrey?

"Madam Pomfrey" Called Harry "Yes Dear, Oh Harry is everything okay?" Asked Madam Pomfrey "Not really, I hurt my hand" Said Harry showing it her. "Oh dear, how did you do that?" She asked "I erm, Well I hit a wall" Mumbled Harry "Well that wasn't very clever now was it? Come on hope into bed, you'll be spending the night here" Sighed Madam Pomfrey. "I need to send a owl to Ron and Hermione so they don't worry about where I am" Said Harry "Quickly then, So I can sort your hand out and you can get some rest" Madam Pomfrey passed Harry some parchment and a quill, He scribbled out a note to Ron and Hermione.

Ron, Mione

Don't worry I'm okay but I wont be back tonight I'm in the hospital wing, I think I broke my hand.

Love Harry

"Okay I'm done, Can you send it for me please" Asked Harry "Yes of course" Said Madam Pomfrey as she bandaged his hand "I'm afraid this is broken and you will be in pain. Take these and get some rest" She said passing him some painkillers.

Harry sighed, took his pills and snuggled down into the bed to think about the events of today and how the day went from amazing to total hell in the space of a few hours.

Hermione and Ron had just finished there homework when an owl landed on the arm of the chair. "Strange, wonder who's writing to me this late at night" wondered Hermione "Well read it and find out, and where the hell is Harry its getting late" grumbled Ron. Suddenly Hermione gasped. Ron jumped to his feet and rushed over to her "What is it? Whats wrong?" He asked "Harry, He's in the hospital wing, with a broken hand" Sobbed Hermione "WHAT" Yelled Ron "What the hell happened, I thought he was just meeting up with Draco. I swear to god if he's hurt him i'll kill him" Said Ron anger rising up in him. "I don't know Ron he doesn't say, Just says he wont be back tonight" cried Hermione. "Lets write him back and find out whats happened" Suggested Ron.

Harry,

What happened? Are you okay? Did something happen with Draco? Shall I kill him for you?(This one is Ron's question by the way) Do you need us to come see you? Seriously are you okay?

Hermione and Ron

They sent the letter and sat back in their chairs waiting and hoping for a reply.

A tapping on the window got Harry's attention, pulling him from his daydreams, he'd been reliving the evening with Draco over and over again in his mind, getting more and more upset each time. Harry took the letter from the owl and read it, laughing as he read Ron's question. Trust Ron to be the one to offer to kill Draco for him and they both wanted to come to him, even though it was past curfew and they'd be in trouble if they got caught. He really did have amazing friends, but he needed to be alone tonight.

Guys,

Yeah something happened, Draco told me Blaise fancies him and he said he doesn't know what he wants to do about it so i got angry and left. Punched a wall broke my hand. Don't come to see me I need to be alone tonight, I'll see you both at breakfast. Your amazing. Get some sleep its late. Love You both

Harry x

After sending his reply back to Ron and Hermione Harry curled up in his hospital bed and tried to get some sleep. Desperately trying to forget the bad parts of the day, which is a lot easier said than done.

Draco finally decided to go back to the Slytherin common room, he didn't know how long he'd been sat on the floor of the room of requirement but it felt like hours and he was officially cried out for the evening. How could such a great morning turn into a rubbish afternoon and then into complete and total hell for the evening. What had he said that had upset Harry so much? He needed to get back to his common room and talk with Pansy, she'll be able to tell him what to do. Once back inside the common room Draco looked round searching for Pansy, he spotted her at the back in the corner. "Pansy, I need some advice can we talk?" Asked Draco. Pansy looked up and saw the pain in Draco's eyes and immediately jumped up and hugged him. "Of course Draco, What happened?" Draco sat down and explained everything that had happened with Harry and how he didn't understand why Harry had suddenly got so upset and ran away "What did I do wrong Pans?"Asked Draco. "Oh Draco, When you said you didn't know what to do about Blaise, Potter probably thought you meant you didn't know if you wanted to be with Potter or Blaise" Explained Pansy. This shocked Draco "WHAT! you think that's why he ran off?" "I need to see him now" Shouted Draco running out of the Slytherin common room and running off towards the Gryffindor common room. "Password" Said the fat lady "I don't know, I need to see Harry, Harry Potter NOW!" Screamed Draco "No password, no entry those are the rules now run along" sighed the fat lady.

"HARRY POTTER, YOU GET OUT HERE RIGHT NOW BEFORE I CURSE MY WAY IN" Screamed Draco. After a few minuets the portrait opened and out stepped Ron and Hermione "Where is he? I need to see him NOW" Demanded Draco "He's not here and even if he was I'm not sure he'd want to see you Malfoy" Explained Hermione "Course he's there where else would he be?" Asked Draco "Hospital Wing" Replied Ron "WHAT! Why what happened? Is he okay?" Said Draco tears filling his eyes. Without waiting for a reply Draco spun round and ran off towards the hospital wing. Why would Harry be there? What happened? Is this his fault? By the time Draco reached the hospital wing he was in tears. So much for being cried out tonight.

Draco burst through the doors of the hospital wing, searching the room looking for Harry. Suddenly he spotted him and raced to his bed. Harry was fast asleep, his hand in a cast as if it was broken. The sight of this brought Draco to even more tears. What had happened? He needed to know and he needed to tell Harry he didn't want anyone else but him. He also didn't want to wake him, he looked so peaceful sleeping, so instead Draco curled up in the bed next to Harry, hugging him close to him and went to sleep. They would sort all this out in the morning. Wouldn't they?
