Chapter 22 - October 24th/25th
Sirius and James looked at each other and sighed. They knew Dumbledore was right, though it killed them to admit it. They all decided to stay up and wait for Dumbledore to come back. The five of them sat on the couches and stared at the portrait hole until one by one they all fell asleep. Sirius kept shaking his head when he would drift off to wake himself up again, but then he drifted off...
Dumbledore came quietly into the common room and surveyed the scene before him. He would have laughed at them all sleeping on top of one another if he had had good news to tell them. He decided he would wake up Sirius first and let him see her alone.
"Mr. Black, would you come with me, please?" Dumbledore did not move his lips and uttered no sound, but Sirius jerked his head up from his shoulder and stared at the Headmaster. He quickly got up and followed Dumbledore out into the hallway. "I wanted to let you be alone with her first. I'm afraid it doesn't look good, Sirius. Madam Pomfrey was not able to revive her, so we called the head nurse from St. Mungo's."
"Did she have any luck?" asked Sirius, fearing that he already knew the answer.
Dumbledore shook his head mutely. "We aren't sure how long she can hold on. If she isn't revived within about twelve hours or so, she will most likely be lost to the coma."
For the second time in his life, Sirius' heart dropped into his boots. For the first time in his life, this wasn't a pleasant feeling. He quickened his pace as he saw the hospital wing door in the distance. He had to get to her. He would revive her himself. She would wake up for him. Those nurses didn't know shit.
Dumbledore put a hand on his shoulder and slowed him down again. "I understand that the two of you have finally admitted your feelings for one another, especially in the supply closet." Dumbledore gave Sirius and knowing look and he quickly turned the shade of Lily's hair. "That is why I wanted to give you the chance to see her first." They came to the door and Dumbledore let go of Sirius' shoulder and opened the door for him.
Sirius hesitated and took a deep breath. He strode through the door and saw Madam Pomfrey and the nurse from St. Mungo's both bending over Raven on opposite sides of her bed. Dumbledore cleared his throat and the two of them nodded, gliding past Sirius. Madam Pomfrey put her hand on his shoulder as Dumbledore had before she followed the other nurse into her office. Sirius looked at Dumbledore.
"I'll speak with the nurses." He left Sirius alone in the room with Raven.
Sirius quickly ran to the bed and knelt down beside her. She was laid on her back, with her arms down straight at her side, like they had been placed there unnaturally. Her head was to the side, facing him. All Sirius would have to do is call her name and she would wake up.
"Raven," he said quietly. Her eyes didn't open. "Raven," he said a little louder, lacing his fingers into hers. "Please wake up." With his other hand, he pushed a strand of hair off of her face and ran his fingers through her hair down to the nape of her neck. He lifted her head gently. "Raven!" he pleaded forcefully. He let her head rest back on the pillow as he felt the tears stinging his eyes. He quickly pressed his lips to hers thinking maybe a kiss would wake her up. He sighed as she continued to sleep. "I'm not letting you go now. You're the only girl that's ever meant something to me, don't you get it? I know you can hear me. Please--"
She suddenly let out a loud snore. Sirius froze. "Is she snoring?" he asked himself. "People in comas don't snore!" He shook her excitedly. "Raven!" She snored again, this one was even louder. "Open your eyes, Raven!"...
Sirius woke up with a start. Rested on his shoulder was Peter's head, and he was snoring loudly and obnoxiously. Sirius suddenly remembered his dream and threw Peter's head off his shoulder. "Oh my God, she's only got a few hours!" he thought as he scrambled up and out the portrait hole. Peter fell down on his side where Sirius had been sleeping and continued to snore.
Sirius was having doubts as to whether that was all really a dream. He sprinted to the hospital wing and threw open the doors. He had to bend down and put his hands on his knees because he was tired from running. When he looked up, he saw four empty beds. He shuffled forward nervously and banged his toe on one of the beds. "Ow, motherfuck!" he screamed as he hopped on one foot and rubbed his other.
"Oh God, why isn't she here?" he thought. "Maybe she's all better," his heart lifted. "Maybe they moved her to St. Mungo's." His head dropped a few notches. "What the fuck happened to Dumbledore?" he thought angrily. "Maybe she's looking for us." He decided to go look for her around the school.
Raven entered the common room and surveyed the scene before her. She laughed at them all sleeping on top of one another. She cleared her throat and the four of them jerked their heads up in unison and stared at her. "Where's Sirius?" she thought to herself.
"Raven!" yelled the four of them together as they surrounded her and hugged her tightly.
"They made it sound like you'd never wake up!" said James, tightly hugging his best friend around the waist.
"James, I can't breath. You wouldn't want to put me into a coma now, would you?" she teased.
James just shook his head. "I forbid you to ever joke about that. You scared the shit out of me!"
"Us," corrected Remus.
"Yes, all of us," added Lily. Peter nodded.
"All of you? Where's Sirius?"
"Oh..." They all looked around for Sirius, having not noticed that he wasn't right there hugging Raven with them.
"Maybe he went to the hospital wing," supplied Lily.
"I'd better go look for him," said Raven, turning from them and taking a few steps towards the portrait hole.
James pulled her back. "He'll figure it out. C'mon, tell us what you remember. Was your arm broken?"
"Yeah," she answered, her eyes still on the portrait hole. She desperately wanted Sirius' arms around her as soon as possible. She turned back to James. "But that's about it."
James noticed a cut near her eyebrow and touched it with his finger. "That hurt?"
Raven shrugged. "A little." The rest of them sat on the couch and James patted the seat next to him. Raven shook her head and whispered. "My butt hurts."
James laughed as Lily grabbed his sleeve. "The Beach Boys! I love this song!"
Raven and James looked over at a group of fourth years who had a radio going. (A/N: YEAH, NO ELECTRONIC DEVICES INSIDE HOGWARTS, I KNOW. BUT IT'S MY FANFIC AND I DO WHAT I WANT! HEHE)
Sirius entered the common room and saw Raven as the lyrics started. She turned and saw him coming towards her. He didn't even hesitate, he just walked straight up to her and did what he'd been wanting to do since she fell. He kissed her deeply as the song played.
(This is the song. He kisses her when the lyrics start.) "Well, it's been buildin up inside of me for oh, I don't know how long. I don't know why, but I keep thinkin something's bound to go wrong. But she looks in my eyes and makes me realize when she says, 'Don't worry, baby. Everything will turn out all right. Don't worry baby.'"
Sirius pulled away only to wrap his arms around her and hug her tightly. "I swear to God, I thought you were a goner!"
Raven looked over at James, Lily, Remus, and Peter and saw the shock on their faces, especially James. Sirius let go of her and then realized what had just happened. He looked over at his best friend and saw his eyes turn to ice.
A/N: OKAY, WHO'S SEEN NEVER BEEN KISSED???? DID YOU RECOGNIZE THAT KISS THING? I WAS WATCHIN IT THIS MORNING AND I DIDN'T HAVE AN IDEA FOR THE CHAPTER YET, AND I THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE CUTE.
