This is not mine, but you knew that, didn't you? I know how smart you are,
I mean, you are reading MY fanfic. Anyway, sorry this took so long to post,
I have had the worst writers' block ever lately.
'I am wet, and it is cold." Thought Harry as he staggered into his flat, 'it is also raining, hence I am wet.'
Harry did not want to think about what had happened, he wanted to shut out what he say, what Sirius had said, he wanted everything to be normal again. He wanted to think his godfather was the greatest thing in the world he wanted to be dating the bast girl in the world, Nina. Oh, why did he have to get drunk and sleep with Paige? He would still have Nina if he didn't. It didn't matter anymore, none of that was real, life sucks, that's real. Lying on the floor he realized one thing: he could not go on like this, he needed to be around caring people, he needed to care, and he couldn't do that. He stared into his fire and reached up for some flue powder, he threw it into the fire and said something into the floor. It was not very clear, but he stuck his head into the fire anyway, hoping it would go to the right place. He was lucky, it did.
"Sirius?"
"Wha-, oh, it's you Harry. Well, I don't want to talk to you right now, goodbye." He said dousing the fire
'Great,' Harry thought, 'now I have turned the one person I could always count on against me, this is just perfect.'
~*~*~The Most Honorable House Of Black~*~*~
'Why did I do that?' Sirius asked himself, 'all I wanted to do was talk to him and I blew him off! How could I be so stupid?'
Both Sirius and Harry spent that night in a flood of firewisky, both thinking about the other and wishing he would pop in for a chat like old times. But only Harry got out of his bed, before he was too drunk to walk he got all of Paige's things and left them in the dumpster outside. He heard of it when she started screaming about all of her ruined things. But she didn't come up, and for that Harry was thankful. That was the last time Harry heard much of anything, the rest of the night was a numb haze. Sirius, on the other hand, just crawled into bed and drank himself senseless.
"Wake up, Sirius, wake up." Someone was shaking him
"Huh? Wha? Oh, it's you, Remus."
"Get up."
"No"
"You really need to get up now."
"Why? Everything is over. Do you know what I did last night? I doused Harry in the fire, now he will never want to talk to me again."
"I doubt he will, since Voldermort came to his house last night and tried to kill him, again."
"WHAT?" Sirius yelled
"He was drunk and disoriented, Voldermort would have gotten him, that is if Ron hadn't decided to stop by Harry's. He saw Voldermort in the doorway and just jumped on him, the spell still got Harry, but since Voldermort's aim was off he's...he's...in a coma."
"He's in a, what? Will he wake up, wait how did Voldermort just walk down Diagon Ally, into the Leaky Cauldron, and up to Harry's room?"
"Paige was helping him-"
"I knew that girl was trouble." Sirius muttered
"Helping him, and she used the Imperius Curse on the bartender, telling him to tell everyone to clear out so he could close up. She then put him out and Voldermort just walked up the stairs."
Sirius was stunned, "We have to go to him."
"Yes, we do."
They apperated to St. Mungos and ran to the Welcome Witch's desk, asking her where Harry Potter was. Without skipping a beat she said, "Floor Four, he's in a special ward, just to your left as you walk in." They went up the stairs and found a ward with no name, but labeled, "Voldermort Cases". Apparently it had been put in since the rise of Voldermort. The rushed through the doors and saw another corridor of doors, the first on the right said, "Harry Potter". Once inside Remus and Sirius saw a healer hunched over Harry.
"Is he alright?" Sirius said
"Well, he's alive." The healer answered, "We can hear him breathe and was can feel a pulse, but he wont wake up. Whatever curse you-know-who threw at him, it was not your normal killing curse. Because it glanced off him it put him to sleep, but we don't know how to wake him up."
Sirius just stared at the healer, "What do you mean, you cant wake him up?"
"Now, I didn't say we couldn't wake him up, we just don't know how to yet."
"WELL FIGURE IT OUT!" Sirius roared
"Sirius!" Remus said calmly, "Calm down, I'm sure they are doing all they can to find out how to wake Harry up. I the meantime we all need to chill out."
The healer left Sirius and Remus alone, afraid of getting yelled at again. Sirius sat down next to harry and held his hand, Remus leaned against the wall. About an hour later Ron and Hermione walked in, followed closely by Maddie, Hannah, and Roxanne.
"Who is he?" Hermione asked, ghostly white
"He's alive." Answered Remus
"Ron told me what happened, he said Vol-"looking down at her kinds she finished, "you-know- who was trying to shoot a curse at Harry that he had never heard before."
"The healer said it was probably meant to kill him, but because it glanced off him, he is only asleep. The healers are doing every thing they can to wake him up, but as of now it doesn't look to good."
"He will be fine," said Sirius, talking for the first time, "he has to be."
"I'm sure he will, mate." Said Ron, also ghostly white
"He has to be, he just has to, I can't..." Sirius trailed off
Within the span of two days all of the Weasleys, Albus Dumbledore, Mad-Eye Moody, and many other various witches and wizards came by to find out how Harry was doing. But none of them stayed too long, for fear of feeling the wrath of a grieving Sirius. He trended to snap at anyone talking "too loud", when they were only at a whisper. He would sporadically yell for a healer and proceeded to interrogate them about how the work on finding a cure for Harry was going. The only person who could calm him down was Dumbledore; he would sit and talk to Sirius like it was an ordinary day. But everyone could see there was nothing ordinary about it, Sirius never left St. Mungos, not after that first day. He didn't eat or sleep, he was growing worse by the minuet. Finally, Remus slipped some sleeping potion into Sirius's tea, and he slept for three days.
'Where am I?' thought Sirius, waking up, "Oh, yeah, I'm-wait. Who is that?'
There was a woman leaning over Harry, "What do you-oh," Sirius started but then seeing the woman turn around with tears in her eyes he finished, "it's you, Nina."
"How is he?" she asked
"Not well, they haven't found a way to wake him up yet. But don't worry, they will, they have to." Sirius answered
"How...how did this happen? All I heard was Harry was here because of you- know-who."
"Well, Harry and I had had a fight and he had just found Pa-" he looked at her face, "his girlfriend cheating on him, he was drunk and caught off guard. Vol-"she winced, "dermort tried some new killing curse on Harry, but Ron was coming to see Harry and jumped on him right as he fired the curse, so it glanced of harry, but he's in a- what the muggle word? Oh yeah, coma, he's in a coma."
"Oh" was all she could say before she broke down in tears in Sirius's lap, "Oh...ho...how....could t-t-this happen? I-i-if I h-had..."
"No, don't think like that," said Sirius, trying to calm her down, "This is not your fault, if anything it's mine."
"No, if I had stayed w-w-w-with him, ma-ma-maybe this w-w-wouldn't have ha- ha-happened!" she wailed
"Nina, listen to me, you could not have stopped this. I was the one who fought with him, if I hadn't he might have come over to my house and this would never have happened, so really, its not your fault."
"But it's r-r-really not yours e-e-either." She said, calming a little, "Like you said, no one could have stopped this."
"Yeah..." he said distantly
"Really, Sirius, don't put this on your self, I wouldn't want you to do anything drastic."
"What? Oh yeah, I wont, don't worry."
"Uh-huh. Can I stay? I want to be with him if he wakes up."
"Sure"
So that is how it went for two long months, Sirius and Nina never left Harry's room. They got other visitors every so often, but mainly it was just the two of them. They talked and sometimes they even laughed. But whenever they looked over at the sleeping Harry they both went quiet and couldn't talk again for hours at a time.
Then one not to very special day Nina got up, "I have to go soon, or I will loose my job. But I want to do it one last time." Sirius looked at he questioningly, but didn't say anything. She leaned over Harry and kissed him. Then she straightened up and started to walk out
"Wait." Came a voice, "Do that again."
"Wh-? HARRY!" she screamed and ran to him
"YES!" said Sirius punching the air, "I knew it! I knew you couldn't stay out."
Harry looked over at Sirius and locked eyes with him, "I'm sorry." They said in unison
"It's alright, mate." Said Harry
"Yeah, same here."
"So," said Harry, "What was that for, hmm? Does this men you forgive me?"
"Yes," replied Nina, "Yes I do."
"I have to call everyone and let them know you're awake." Said Sirius, beaming
"Alright, but first, what is the date?"
"Umm, June 6th."
"WHAT? I've been asleep for two months? I've got to get out of here, I have so mu-"
"Calm down Harry," said Nina, "You were almost murdered by Vol-Voldermort, you got leave from work."
"Yes, but-"
"You are still weak, you need toy rest."
"No I'm not. Look," he tried to get out of bed and fell, but Sirius caught him
"She's right Harry, you really do need to rest."
"Fine, but not for long, I need to get back to work."
"Let's get a healer in here and find out what he thinks, okay?"
"Okay, sure."
Nina summoned a healer to Harry's room, when he came in he said, "Harry! It's so wonderful to see you up! So, how do we feel?"
"Great, can I go now?"
"Oh no, let me check you out first." With a wave of his wand he was done, "Well, you are quite healthy, but you are weak. You need to stay here for a week at the least while you take a strengthening solution."
"Okay, a week, I can handle that."
Did you like it? I hope so, please R&R. Oh yes, and I would like to say to born_diva, Harry is very on the edge these days, so braking the law is not something that crosses him mind often.
