Harry Potter and the Kedavra Bond
Disclaimer: I do not own any part of the Harry Potter!!!! Go ask JK Rowling if you want the answer!
Quote:
Snape prowled through the fumes, making waspish remarks about the Gryffindors' work while the Slytherins sniggered appreciatively. Draco Malfoy, who was Snape's favourite student, kept flicking puffer-fish eyes at Ron and Harry, who knew that if they retaliated they would get detention faster than you could say "Unfair."

Harry Potter and the Kedavra Bond
Chapter 9
Harry was first aware of a presence by his bedside when he heard a muffled cry of pain. Harry winced as a feminine voice hissed on his right hand side.
"Ron! Will you shut up!"
Harry grinned into the covers that were pulled up to his nose as he recognized the voice as one of his best friend's. Hermione Granger. He heard the sagging of another chair.
"What am I supposed to do about it? Bloody stupid place to put a wall, anyway."
Ron Weasley, Harry's dim brain managed. He smirked as he heard Hermione lecturing Ron about 'language' and how he was in 'an area where there are very ill people!' Deciding that he should put Ron out of the storm, also known as "Hurricane Hermione," Harry moaned... he moaned very loudly.
"Shh!" Hermione told Ron, leaning forward towards the slightly moving form on the white cot. "Harry?" she asked, pulling down the covers so that she could see his face.
Harry blinked his eyes a few times, and then with Hermione's help, sat up leaning back against the many pillows. He could vaguely make out a blob with red hair holding out his glasses, and Harry took them gratefully, sliding them up his nose. He looked back at his two best friends, both were grinning at him, well... one was grinning, the other was smiling apprehensively.
Ron, whose nose looked a bit red, leaned foreword. "Only you could go to a will reading and end up at St. Mungo's."
Hermione scowled and clicked her tongue, "That was really dangerous, Harry! Why did you go to see Lestrange?"
Harry looked away to his hands which were fumbling with the bedspread. "I don't... really know what made me do it..." he started looking back up at his friends, "I mean — she was right there! I couldn't do nothing!"'
"Harry... I hate to break it to you, mate, but I reckon that you've gone nutty!" Ron told him, chuckling slightly, "She was the one that ki — "
Ron was cut off by Hermione give him a slap on the knee and then sending a meaningful glance at Harry, who she obviously thought wasn't watching. Harry, wishing that they could talk about anything else other than Sirius, glanced around the hospital ward.
"Why are there presents?" he asked, taking in for the first time that balloons, flowers, and colourfully wrapped presents were taking up every available surface.
Hermione looked up at him, a small smile playing on her lips, "Harry... you do know that yesterday was your birthday, right?"
Harry blanched. Yesterday?! But when he had come to the will reading it was only the twenty-fifth!
Ron read his expression with ease. "Mate, you've been here about a week. It wasn't until we sent Dumbledore a howler that he finally let us see you!"
"We did not send Professor Dumbledore. You did!" Hermione hissed at him, folding her arms. "I still cannot believe that you did that, Ronald!"
"Hey!" Ron protested weakly, "He thought it was funny! He laughed, if you remember!"
"The only reason he let us see Harry was because you threatened to set Fred and George on him if he didn't!" she went on hotly, "That would be enough to scare anyone to death!"
"That was the point!"
Harry rolled his eyes, "Guys... I do have a bit of headache. Could you keep it down?"
Hermione blushed faintly and Ron's ears turned pink. Harry rubbed his forehead a bit and then glanced around the room. "Well! Would you two care to help me open all these?" he asked.
Ron, who loved unwrapping items more than receiving them, eagerly reached for a pile near the foot of the bed. Hermione beat him to the first present as she held out an envelope made of a starched parchment. Emerald Ink was lettered across the front. Hermione beamed at him and told him unnecessarily that they were his O.W.L results.
Harry undid the wax seal with trembling fingers.

There was also another parchment inside.
Harry,
Congratulations on your O.W.L results. I know that you will make the right choices to proceed for your future career.
This year you will be taking the N.E.W.T course for Potions. Professor Snape has allowed you in on very special circumstances and you will need to work very hard to be able to make the cut. You will also be continuing Occulemency Lessons with Professor Snape and occasionally, myself.
I hope that you are feeling better. Happy Birthday!
Albus Dumbledore
Harry looked up from his letter. He watched as Hermione's hands seemed to twitch with anticipation, and it seemed to be costing her every bit of strength she had, to not snatch the letter from Harry's outstretched hand. He grinned at her and then tossed her his results.
She scanned them quickly and then squalled in delight! "Oh!!!! Harry! These are wonderful! You could do a lot with these grades. Although... Divination doesn't look so good..."
As Harry grinned at her, Ron picked up the envelope. "Uh... Harry?"
"What is it?" he asked, turning away from Hermione's praises.
"I think you missed something." Ron told him, grinning ear to ear.
In his hand was a shiny Prefect Badge.
Hermione looked as though she would have a heart attack from excitement. Her shrieks seemed to echo against the colourful walls. "Is that possible, to have three prefects?! Oh Harry! This is wonderful... now we can all be prefects together! Oh, Harry!!!" she pounced him and grabbed him round the neck.
"Hermione! Come one, we're not going to be able to open gifts if you strangle him!" Ron told her, out of breath from heaving a load of presents on to the bed.
She detached her self and sat back in the chair, righting her robes and red in the face, bushy hair askew. Ron removed the fluffy pink bow from the gift and set it on Harry's tousled head.Harry glared at him, but did not remove the bow.
Fifteen presents later, which included a pair of dragon hide gloves, a new Wizarding Chess set, new books on curses and wizarding history, a new pack of quills, and an original pack of Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes, Harry was sitting on his cot, hair topped with every ribbon and bow from the packages. A particular neon green one falling onto the bridge of his nose.
Harry and Ron were playing a game of wizarding chess as Hermione sat nearby, a book open in her lap when Professor Snape stepped into the room. All three students looked up and Snape's eyes swept Harry's colourfully decorated head.He sneered at them.
"As much fun as it would be to describe in full detail who attractive you look in pink, Mr. Potter..." Harry flushed and shook the arrangements out of his hair. "You need rest if you are going back to the house tomorrow."
Hermione and Ron both hugged Harry and said their goodbyes as Snape stood menacingly in the corner, glaring at them. Harry sunk back against his pillows and watched as Remus walked into the room, a news paper under his arm. Remus whispered a few things to Snape before the Potions Master departed. The werewolf took a seat besides his bed.
"Hello, Harry! How are you feeling?"
Harry rolled his eyes, he seemed to be getting that question an awful lot, lately. "Well, as well as you can be by calling fun starring at a wall."
Remus chuckled and leaned back in his chair, opening the new paper. "Try to get some rest, Harry. I'll be reading."
He sighed and made himself comfortable in the bed, underneath the covers. He glanced over at Lupin and saw him completely immersed in the Daily Prophet. And there was something different about his hands. They weren't bare like they usually were. His left ring finger was hosting a golden band.
Harry gasped and then shouted out, "Oh my GOD!"
Lupin looked up quickly to see what the disturbance was. Upon searching the room completely and finding nothing, he returned his startled gaze to Harry.
"What's the matter? Do you hurt anywhere?" Remus asked.
"Y — you... ring!!!!" Harry managed to gasp.
Remus looked confused for a total of five seconds before he broke out into a dazzling smile, nearly blinding Harry. It could only mean one thing.
"You asked her!" Harry accused jokingly, the werewolf looked the happiest that Harry had ever seen him.
Lupin nodded and sat back down in his chair. "Yes... it seems that you're going to have a godmother soon, Harry."
Mercifully... he fainted.
Only to awake seconds later to a hand slapping his face. "Harry! Harry, are you okay!?"
Harry groaned and opened his eyes to see Remus standing above him, a worried look pasted on his face. Harry shoved himself up straighter on the bed and looked at his godfather.
"Godmother!?" he yelped.
Remus grinned at him. "Yes... Tonks and I have decided to finally 'tie the knot,' as they say!!!!" He looked ecstatic.
Harry returned the grin weakly. So... that must be the way things go. Lose a godfather, get another and a godmother free!
Lupin had returned to his seat, after making sure that Harry's condition was normal, and had unfolded the paper once again. He heard Lupin tutting behind the page.
"What's the matter?" Harry asked, leaning over to peek his head inside.
"Oh!" Lupin looked up and then set down the Prophet so that the sunken face of an older man moved around on the front page. "Matthew LeLawnre has escaped from Azkaban... he was a big supporter and torture of Voldemort in his ranks."
