This Chapter was originally called the actual detention, but I discovered
it would make the chappy to long so.since most of it has to do with the
hospital wing that's what I called it. it's a really long chapter so I
might not update for awhile.KK (((((((((((

Ch.10- Hospital wing
Three days later, Hermione woke with a sudden start. She opened her eyes, it was dark, what time was it? Then she realized she was in the hospital wing. 'How long have I been here?' she thought. She looked over to her side and saw Ron asleep on the bed next to hers and Harry in the hair next to her bed. She looked at the clock on the bedside table. It was 1:30 in the morning. She looked at Ron again; he had started to snore. "Ug, shut up Ron." She had a big headache and felt very weak. She tried to sit up and screamed out in pain. This woke the sleeping boys.
"Hermione, you're up!" Harry said groggily.
"Yeah but I can't sit up." She whispered.
"Are you OK?" asked Ron. "Oh, this is all my fault."
"It is?" she asked confused. "What happened anyway?"
"Malfoy was tickling you in your common room when we came in to tell you you had detention in 20minutes. When I saw you I got mad, tried to beat the shit out of Malfoy, but hit you because you got in front of him." Ron said looking down.
"Oh, how long have I been in here?" she asked.
"3 days." Said Harry.
"3 days!" cried Hermione. "Oh my god! I missed that many classes? What if I fail, I didn't do any of the work! What did you do in those classes?" "Well, at lest we know it didn't do that much damage." Said Harry.
"I'm serious Harry. What did you do in those classes?"
"In transfiguration we turned tables into galleons, frogs into hairs and our partners into books." Said Harry.
"In Astronomy we just studied the stars, how they move and learned more about constellations." Continued Ron.
"Ok, I know all that."
"In potions we continued the polyjuice potion." said Harry.
" That's all really...in history of magic we studied middle age Vampire's." said Ron. "That's it really.we're not sure what they did in muggle studies."
You can ask someone else.Now, go back to sleep Pomfrey told us to leave but we wouldn't go and she said that if we wake you we'll be skinned."
"OK, I'm glad I actually woke up though.I had this horrible dream.well not exactly horrible just weird and unreal." she said closing her eyes. Soon she was fast asleep and the boys followed this time Harry was on the bed on the other side of hers though.
*******************In prefect common room*******************
'Why can't I sleep?' thought a tired Draco, lying on the Slytherin couch in the prefect common room. In the background a door opened and Draco's head snapped over to where the sound came from. A sleepy eyed Padma Patil trudged slowly down the stairs and ploped down on her couch. "What are you doing up?" asked Draco.
"Can't sleep.you?" she asked as another door opened. Justin Finch-Fletchy emerged and sat on the same couch as Padma. Padma curled up in his arms and looked at Draco. 'Should I tell them I'm worried about Hermione?' he thought.
"Can't sleep." He said. "What about you Justin?"
"Can't sleep." He said. Padma sat up suddenly with a look of worry in her eyes. "What's wrong love?"
"Hermione, I wonder how she's doing.If she's awake yet or not."
"Why don't we sneak down to visit her?" asked Draco.
"OK." The other two agreed. They all headed out the portrait hole and towards the hospital wing. When they reached the door to the long room, Padma opened it slowly and tiptoed in with the boys in tow. She saw Hermione lying in a bed with Ron and Harry in the beds on either side of her. Justin gently shook Harry's shoulder. Harry opened his eyes and saw Justin, Padma and Draco leaning over him.
"What you doin' here?" he asked sitting up.
"Came to see if Hermione was OK. She never really told us why she's been here so much lately. D'you know why?" asked Padma. "Yes, but I can't tell you. When she wakes again she'll tell you if she wants." Said Harry.
"All right, she woke up already?" asked Padma. "When?"
"Yeah. at 3 in the morning." Harry said lying back down and closing his eyes again.
"Well I guess we'll leave then." said Draco walking quietly over to the door. Padma and Justin followed.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Not to long later*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Hermione woke again and closed her eyes from the sudden light. She looked to the side sheltering her eyes from the windows and saw Harry sleeping in the bed next to hers.
"Don't leave, Hermione. I love you." Came Ron's voice from the other side of her. She quickly looked over a saw that he was still asleep. 'Oh my.' Thought Hermione. 'Not sleep talking again!' she'd known for a long time that he liked her.but she didn't really like him back.
"Mrs. Granger! You're up!" Mme Pomfrey came bustling around the quarter- closed curtain with a large bottle that read Medi-kemia. She poured some of the light blue liquid in the glass she'd brought. "Drink this! It'll help you're leukemia as much as we can." She said handing her the glass. "Take it every morning and every night."
"OK, thank you Mme. Pomfrey." She said and then gulped the gross liquid down.
"You may get dressed and go to breakfast now, Mrs. Granger." Mme. Pomfrey said walking around the curtain again. Hermione got up, dressed and headed to the great hall after telling Pomfrey she'd come back for the medicine later. Hermione walked down corridors and turned corners until she reached the Great Hall. The doors were closed, she was late. She opened one of the doors and slipped in. Every eye in the room was on her as she made her way to the prefect table. She took her seat in between Draco and Padma and filled her plate with Bacon, eggs and toast.
"So, do you mind telling us why you were in the hospital wing so much in the last month?" asked Draco.
Hermione decided to get it out so she took a drink of Pumpkin juice and a deep breath. "I have Leukemia." Draco gasped. Padma was speechless and Justin just sat there mouth open in the shock of a fifteen year old girl being the first witch or wizard to get Leukemia in over a century. "Mme. Pomfrey doesn't know much about it yet, or at least she hasn't mentioned it to me. I have to go back to the infirmary to get some medicine after lunch, I'll have to take every morning and night before bed."
"Are you sure it's not bad?" asked Padma Looking more worried than Hermione had ever seen her before.
"I'm not sure yet." Hermione sighed. "I'm sorry you guys. There's no cure. Harry's convinced I'm gonna die, which I probably will, but.oh god it can't get any worse."
"Don't say that Hermione." Said Justin finally able to talk.
"Mme. Pomfrey told me to live my life as full as possible. So can we just forget it?" she said. The three sat there with expressions of disbelief on their faces. "Please?"
"Alright." Said Justin.
"For you." Said Draco. Padma sighed and hugged her friend.
"I just hope you can get rid of it." Hermione smiled.
"Thank you."
"So." said Draco.
"The school trip is in two weeks you know." Said Padma.
"Sorry to get back on the subject but will you be able to go?" said Justin.
"Wouldn't miss it for the world." Said Hermione she smiled again and Harry who had been peering at her sighed dreamily. ' Love her smile' he thought.

"Harry! Harry!" Ron was saying while waving a hand in front of his face. "Hello? Earth to Harry!"
Ginny leaned in from across the table and punched him in the arm, Hard! "HARRY!" "Who? What?" he said snapping out of his trance.
"You were in a trance starring at Hermione, Again!" said Ron.
"Why don't you just tell her you like her?" asked Ginny, even though she had liked him ever since she had first laid eye's on him and still was madly in love with him. She had to respect that he didn't like her, he liked Hermione. Ginny was a little jealous of Hermione. Every one she liked, liked Hermione. Dean, Harry, even Colin Creevy liked her! She was friends with Colin though she had never had those kinds of feelings about him. Dean was cute, nice, funny. everything Ginny wanted but there was something missing. Harry was just perfect in every way. He was special.
