Chapter 9: All's Well That Ends Well
Harry stumbled back into the Hospital Wing. His eyes were puffy and red from crying.
Hermione and ron saw his face and immediately asked everyone to leave except Harry.
Ron broke the ice. "What's wrong, mate?" Hermione must have know his question because she leaned forward as well.
"I saw.I saw." Harry was still in shock.
"Sirius?" Hermione's voice was aqueaky.
"Yeah!" Harry was at a loss for words. He sat there, mouth open looking like a codfish.
"And you parents?" added Ron sheepishly.
"Yeah, but how did you." Harry was totally bewildered. He was more astonished by his friends knowing then by it actually happening.
"Harry, they were here with us," said Hermione. Her voice had become quite delicate. "They sat with Ron and me since 12:00 noon on Saturday. They've been keeping us conscious, keeping us alive."
"Harry, you know." ron had actually opened his mouth, "you look like you dad. Same hair style and all, same face. Just your eyes really."
"Yeah Harry. Your mom was really pretty. You both have exactly the same eyes," stated Hermione, matter-of-factly.
"Thanks you guys. You saw Sirius, too. I can't believe it."
Harry had started tearing again. "I.I.I got to hug and talk to my parents. I missed Sirius." He tried to shrug off the tears by using humor. "I think I might have crushed one of his ribs with my bear hug."
However, this didn't accomplish its purpose. Rather than stop the tears, rembering his hug with Sirius made his misty eyes grow more so.
"It's all right, Harry. We both know how you feel. We feel the same way." Hermione got out of her hospital bed and ran over to console Harry.
Harry had time to turn and face her when she already had thrown her arms around his neck. She was trying to console him, but to him, he thought it seemed more vice-versa. She was sobbing uncontrollably.
Ron soon joined the group hug. The hugged nearly 4 minutes, just crying and Ron and Hermione apologizing non-stop.
"At least," Ron had recovered first, " we still have each other and all's well that ends well."
