Chapter 5 - Over Cho Harry?
Disclaimer - yea yea yea, I don't own Harry potter, only in my dreams! But I do how ever own the new characters!
(A/n: yay I wrote a much longer chapter then the others! )
Hermione sighed sadly. She could hear the muffled voices of passing students, and the heavy breathing of the occupant in the next bed. She snuggled down further in the bed, aware that Draco was still in the chair. The infirmary felt unusually cold this morning. Hermione shivered and tried to snuggle down even further into the small bed.
Draco automatically stood up and grabbed a near by blanket, he placed it over Hermione then stood there staring at her for a few minutes before sitting down and looking out the window. 'I would have thought Harry and Ron would be here by now, after all I did send Ginny with a message for them..'
Hermione turned over slowly, and looked up at Draco. ' I guess he really isn't that bad'. Draco turned his gaze to Hermione. "Draco?" she asked softly. "Yea?" " How did you get up to save me? You were under the snoozerous spell! I don't even know if it is possible to awake from that spell that soon after it was cast." She frowned as she contemplated further.
Draco smirked softly, 'I can see even when she is sad and depressed she still has an inquisitive mind.' " I have absolutely no idea, how ever maybe we could ask one of the teachers and they could help us find the answer?"
Hermione smiled, then paled as she remembered last night " I can't believe I tried to kill my self, I am such an idiot!".
"Now now dearie" came Madame Pomferry's soothing voice "Don't you worry, you've just been under a lot of stress lately, from exams and what not, and stress affects us all differently, just try not to get too stressed and you will be fine." Hermione smiled gratefully.

Ron, Harry and Katie rushed from Care OF Magical Creatures, headed towards the infirmary. "I feel so guilty!" Wailed Ron. "We all do" Sighed Katie "What do we do? What do we say?" Asked Harry. "I guess we haven't really been paying much attention to her," Ron said thoughtfully.
They came to a halt just outside the infirmary. The hall way was deserted, and felt quiet cool, since usually it was very well heated. Harry strode into the infirmary, only to be stopped by Madame Pomferry. "I am sorry Potter but you are not allowed in here, you have caused enough damage to Hermione as it is, and she needs her rest."
At that exact moment Draco walked out from behind a curtained bed, "Hogwarts: A History, was it?" He asked. "Yes", Harry heard Hermione call out from behind the curtain.
"Oh, hi Harry, " Draco smirked, "I'm just going to the library to fetch Hermione a book." With one last glance at Hermione's bed, he left the infirmary, and ran straight into Ron. Ron shoved Draco out the way, then he and Katie entered the infirmary.
"How come he can see Hermione, but we can't!?!?" Harry shouted, hoping that shouting would get the woman to let him through. "If you have a problem Potter, then I suggest going to Professor Dumbledore." She replied in a cold voice. Harry shouted some more, until Katie grabbed his arm and literally dragged him out of the infirmary.
Hermione sighed, she was all out of tears, but she still felt painfully sad. She couldn't face seeing Harry, Ron and Katie at the moment, and Harry's shouting seemed to make her feel even worse. She had sent Draco to fetch her favorite book, because she desperately needed something to read, and Draco had offered to go and fetch something for her.
Harry paced up and down the corridor, then collapsed against a wall. "We really screwed up this time" he sighed loudly. Katie gave Harry a hug, "I'm sure everything will work its self out" she whispered. Ron looked at them with a slight smile 'I wonder what's going on between those two' he thought. They sat outside the infirmary.
Harry turned his head at the sound of foot steps coming down the deserted hall way, he saw Draco hurrying down towards them, a big copy of Hogwarts: A History, in his arms. Harry stood up and stopped Draco before he could enter the infirmary. "Why are YOU helping Hermione, and why are YOU the only one who is allowed to see her" He spat. Draco smirked, "Because" he drawled, "I'm the one that saved her before she could kill herself, and I'm apparently the only one who will pay any attention to her and doesn't ignore her as soon as a pretty girl arrives at school."
Harry blushed, then threw a punch at Draco, but Draco dodged it gracefully, before shoving Harry out the way with a smirk. "Now if you don't mind, I am going to give Hermione her book." He strode into the infirmary, slamming the door in Harry's face.

Harry, Ron and Katie retreated back to the Gryffindor common room. "Well you know what we have to do now don't you?" Exclaimed Katie with a soft smile. "No , what?" replied Ron rather sarcastically. "Well, we need to get her some get well soon cards and pressie's! Honestly you two, were are your brains!?" She stuck her tongue out at Ron, then ran up to the girls dormitory's to discuss her plans with Rebecca. Ron gave Harry a weird look as Harry stared after her. "So I take it you have gotten over Cho Chang then?" laughed Ron. "I think so!" Smiled Harry. "Ok, but now we need to think about Hermione! We should sneak into Hogsmeade and get her a gift, don't you think?". "Definitely! Maybe a new book and some chocolates!"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*
The night was cool and calm. Except for a piercing scream coming from the girls dormitories. So loud that even the boys heard it this time. Harry, his usual hero type self, rushed into the girls dorm.
Before him he saw a mass of girls crowded around Katie's bed. Rebecca was at her side stroking her forehead and saying soothing words, then shouting at everyone to go away and leave Katie alone. Katie lay there crying and screaming. Her face unusually pale. As Harry looked at her he felt his own face pale to, he pushed his way through the crowd towards the bed.
"wh..whats wrong?" Harry stuttered. Rebecca looked up at him sadly. "She is like this every night, though she has never been this bad, I will tell you everything later, because I don't want everyone here to know, but you don't need to worry about her, she doesn't remember a thing by morning."
Harry picked Katie up, holding her in his arms, this seemed to calm her down. He strode through the crowd and out the door, laying her down on a common room couch. "Everyone except for Rebecca, OUT, NOW! Go back to bed!." He said in a calm demanding voice. Slowly everyone turned and headed back to their dorms.
Rebecca lit the fire, then put a silencing charm on the room, so that Katie would not wake anyone up,, and so that she could talk to Harry without the risk of anyone over hearing. "Harry.." she began " Do you remember seeing that article in the newspaper about our school being attacked over the holidays?." Harry nodded solemnly ".. well, Katie's uncle is the care taker there and Katie was staying there with him, at the time of the attack. She claims that she can't remember anything, but every night since she has been like this, she seems to be having horrible night mares, but by the morning she doesn't remember a thing, and doesn't believe us when we sat she was screaming and crying in the night." Rebecca paused, and looked at Katie tenderly. "I fear something is wrong, very wrong" She sighed, before looking at Harry with pleading eyes.
"Please, don't tell anyone, for Katie's sake, please don't." Harry nodded numbly. He gazed at Katie, who by now was sleeping quiet peacefully. Her full lips curved in a slight smile, and her hair framing her face. Rebecca laid down on another nearby couch and went to sleep, but Harry stayed sitting where he was, and gazing at Katie. "Definitely over Cho" he whispered.
