Chapter 5

Sleep, Booze and Stories

A/N: Please be aware that this chapter has more swearing than I would usually put but this is the way it is to be written, so apologies for offence caused. However this isn't rated PG-13 for no reason. Thank you and please enjoy.

"That'll be Draco" Screamed Ron and with that he ran towards the door and opened with such eagerness you'd think all his Christmases had come at once.

"Geeze, calm down man, anyone would think you're marring Draco instead!"

"Oh shut the hell up Seamus, your just jealous"

"Ohhhh touchy aren't we?"

Ron stuck his middle finger up in the direction of Seamus, "arsehole!" With this final, but rude sentiment, Ron opened the door and embraced Draco.

"Thanks for coming man!"

"Hey no problem I wouldn't miss this for the world, so let's get the party started!"

Draco shut the door and went straight over to Harry.

"How's Hermione Harry?

"She's doing ok, still in the coma, nothing much really all I can do is wait."

"She's really luck to have a friend like you Harry, I sure she knows you're there" He gave Harry's shoulder a gentle squeeze.

"Thanks Draco, I appreciate that, really I do, I know I don't always act like I do but trust me it does mean a lot"

And with those last words spoken the party was in full swing, it wasn't until the earl morning sunlight drifted through the open curtains that you could see the extent of that damage to Ron's flat.

All kinds or alcoholic beverages laid strewn across the coffee table, the kitchen table, the floor, some half empty, some still full, some filing the bin to its very brim. Half eaten food still clung to the plates they had been placed upon, cling film that had been ripped from bowls in eagerness laid scattered among the glass bottles, plastic bottles and empty shot glasses. This flat looked like a bombsite; it was going to take a hell of a lot of cleaning. And by the amount drunk none of these people were going to be in the least bit interested, not until they could manage to look in the direction of broad daylight.

There was one person that was unable to sleep, it was Harry, he could not take his mind of Hermione, he wanted to her to wake up so he could tell her how much she means to him, but as the days drifted by and even though the doctors told him she was making really good progress, he was losing more faith everyday, the longer she laid there the longer his heart would be breaking and the more hope he would be losing.

"Sod this" Muttered Harry and he rose from his comfortable position on the sofa, Harry, unlike the others had managed to get plenty of sleep, he wasn't bothered by the amount of shouting Ron and the others were making, he'd been losing enough sleep already. So he just dozed of into a very deep sleep.

"I'm going home" and with that he walked out of the door.

Hermione had been staring at the flowers for ages, she was so curious, she had never seen flowers like these before, none had ever been shown or talked about in the many books that she had read over the years. The awe she had residing over her managed to lift and she proceeded downwards, into the flowers, into where her curiosity would meet its conclusion.

It took longer than she had expected, the closer she got the more tired she felt, Hermione hadn't slept in days and her eyes were so heavy, maybe, just maybe she would be able to rest her eyes for a while, she didn't know what the time was but she didn't care, she just needed to rest, maybe have a little doze, I mean who would know? Her mind was dreaming who's going to know if she takes the tiniest of naps. With these thoughts made up in her mind she gradually lowered herself down onto the flowers, and fell asleep, she wouldn't be cold as the flowers acted like a blanket covering every part of her body.

"Finally home at last" said an irritated Harry, and he flung himself down onto his nice comfortable bed.

After a few minutes of laying there he managed to get up and take a shower, dry himself and get dressed, ready for another day by Hermione's bedside, he didn't care about work, they knew his situation and they were very supportive, and to this Harry was extremely grateful.

As Harry was about to exit his house, it turned frightfully cold, the breath the escaped from his mouth was now noticeable, he could see it travel upwards until it totally disappeared ready for the next amount of carbon dioxide to be exhaled. Something was very wrong indeed, this shouldn't be happening not at this time of the year – mid July.

Harry rushed over the thermometer that hung near the window, it read a comfortable 21 degrease centigrade, so why did it feel so cold and why did he feel as though he was being watched? He looked out of the window and saw everyone wearing as little as possible so they didn't give too much of their body away, he saw mums with screaming children from the distress of the rising heat diving in and out their nice cool home as quickly as they could.

"Of for fucks sake!" moaned Harry and he slammed his fist against the wall and with that the wall shook and the thermometer fell down onto the floor making a crack in the glass.

Harry was now beginning to get very frustrated and yelled at the top of his voice, not giving a darn if anyone could hear him or not, he wanted people to hear him he wanted people to know how he felt for once.

"I have enough to deal with, I don't need anymore creepy weird crap going on anymore, so just stop! And now I have to go out and buy another thermometer, for Christ sake!"

A familiar voice replied to this bout of screaming.

"I'm so bloody sorry Potter"

Ron's head was absolutely killing him, it throbbed terribly, and he slowly rose from the part of the floor where he had collapsed the previous night.

"Where are Harry, and Draco?" These few simple words that were spoken hurt immensely.

"Ohhh, I'm never drinking that amount of alcohol again!" Complained a rather disgruntled body that was facing the wall, it was Seamus.

"Me too" replied Ron's twin brother's Fred and George, Percy his other brother that was a very distinguished face among the Ministry of Magic and Neville Longbottom.

"Yea so where are Harry and Draco?" Ron ask for the second time

"Erm I think they left ages ago" George mumbled

"Oh well that was nice of them" Ron grumbled

"Cheer up bro" Hollered Fred

"I suppose" Retaliated Ron

"I had a great night anyways" Boasted George

"Yea only because you were so drunk you hugged a plant and told it how much you loved it and never wanted to leave it and that you were going to propose to it" When Percy had finished this sentence he jumped up and did the most hilarious impression, everyone, suddenly forgetting their hangover problems burst into fits of laughter"

"Between the fits of cackling and spluttering Fred also added to his brothers shame "What about when he walked into the door apologized and asked if it wanted anything form the kitchen!"

More fits of laughter

"Oh AND" began Percy for the second time as he had managed to regain some of his composure "What about when you walked into he patio door, made that huge noise and fell on the floor!"

Even more fits of laughter

"That was an accident!" George exclaimed, the door was really clean and I didn't know it was shut.

"Yea whatever" Shouted everyone and with that they hurtled cushions at a very unsuspecting George.

"Wankers" George half shouted half muttered under the cushions
