Harry awoke from his deep slumber. His whole body felt bruised and his head was killing him. Why was he feeling so crappy lately? He had been taking care of himself, and none of his friends were sick with anything, so why was he getting sick? He hoped it wasn't anything serious.
He wished he could tell someone but he knew he couldn't. They would only start fussing over him, giving him less privacy than he already had. Life was already hard enough with people helping him with everything and he really didn't need anybody else nagging him and feeling worried for him.
He needed help, but didn't know where to go.
Harry heard the covers rustling in the bed on his left. Obviously Ron was awake.
"Ron?"
A small smack was heard.
"Ow!"
"Are you okay, Ron?"
"Yeah, just smashed by head on the damn headboard!"
Harry chuckled.
"Nice one."
Ron snorted. More rustling was heard.
"What are you doing?"
Harry didn't want to talk much. It hurt his throat and stomach to talk.
"Getting dressed. I'll help you in a sec."
The sound of rustling continued and Harry heard the curtains of Ron's bed moving. He then heard him moving to the side as well. A weight sagged on Harry's left.
"Ron?" Harry asked, reaching out his arms.
Harry felt a hand grabbing onto his.
"I'm right here. Let's get you dressed."
The two boys spent the next ten minutes getting Harry into his uniform. It had been taking longer to get Harry dressed for the passed three days because Ron was teaching Harry to do up his tie without his sight. That usually took a few extra minutes.
Once Harry was dressed they went to the bathroom to get washed. Ron was also teaching Harry to get himself cleaned as well. That wasn't as hard as the tie.
"Are you sure that you don't need to go to the loo?"
"Yeah, I'm sure."
Ron grabbed Harry's arm and began to lead him out of the bathroom. Once halfway through the Dormitory, Harry's knees buckled as he fell, catching himself at the last moment. Ron quickly grabbed onto his friend's arm, pulling him up.
"Are you okay, mate?"
"Yeah, I'm fine," Harry, grumbled.
"Are you sure? You look like hell today."
"Thanks…"
"I'm serious, Harry. If you're not feeling well, I can take you to the hospital wing."
"I'm just fine, Ron!" Harry was slightly annoyed.
"Okay, okay. Let's go."
Ron brought Harry to their Charms class.
Half an hour had passed of Harry's Charms class. He was beginning to not feel so well. It felt as if his head was swarming in a pool of cold water. He was trying extremely hard not to pass out.
"Harry, what's wrong?" Hermione asked, taking his hand in hers.
"Nothing. I'm fine."
"If you say so."
Hermione turned back to the board, where Sirius was writing the definitions of various charms and spells. Brittany was flipping through a book, muttering things to Sirius every few seconds. Hermione still had Harry's hand clutched in hers, massaging it slightly. Suddenly Harry let out a small moan and began to hold his head in his hand.
"Harry?"
"I don't feel so well."
"Come with me."
Hermione helped Harry up from his seat, ignoring the stares from Ron and the other students. She led Harry over to Sirius, who looked just as confused as the rest of the students. Brittany put down her book and looked over to the other three. She was thinking the same as Sirius.
"What's going on?" Sirius asked.
"Harry's not feeling well."
Harry was still clutching his head. Brittany walked over to the three.
"What's going on? Is Harry okay?"
Harry shook his head.
"Oh dear. Do you want to leave?"
Sirius turned to the class.
"I'll be leaving for a moment; please stay silent. I shall only be about ten minutes," he said, "Ms. Wolfe, will you please take charge of my class?"
"Yes, Sir."
Brittany took a seat at Sirius' desk and Hermione went back to her seat. She and Ron watched as Sirius took Harry from the room.
"I don't think it is anything serious." said Sirius, once they had gotten to Harry's dormitory, "It just seems like a headache and some fatigue. I'm going to give you some Pain Reducing potion for you to take."
"Thanks, Siri."
"No problem, kid; just get your rest. I need to get back to my class."
Harry heard Sirius pouring a liquid into a glass. The glass was placed to Harry's lips.
"Just drink that down."
Sirius held onto the glass as Harry drank, keeping Harry from spilling it. Once Harry was done he placed the glass back onto the night table.
"I'll be going now. Have a good rest."
Sirius placed a small kiss on Harry's forehead and left the room. Once Harry was sure that he was gone, he got under the covers and closed his eyes. He took off his sunglasses (A/N: I know that I forgot to mention those. Or did I?) and placed them onto the night table. He fell into a deep slumber.
Hermione was sitting on the edge of Harry's bed. She had been very worried about her boyfriend when he had appeared so sick in class. She hoped he was feeling better; she didn't like to see him sick.
It wasn't the first day that Harry had been acting like this. He had been looking quite ill ever since he had been released from the hospital wing, a few days after his coma. Maybe there was something wrong with him. Something chronic, or life threatening.
She prayed that it was nothing. She had been praying for him since the attack. Everything seemed to be happening to Harry. She noticed that he hadn't had even one normal year since he had started Hogwarts. Every year something bad seems to happen to him.
Why were the bad things always happening to Harry? What had he done to deserve all these things? Harry was the nicest person Hermione had ever met; he didn't deserve this. He was always helping people and being his selfless little self. He had never done anything that would make him deserve what he had been getting. Nothing at all.
A small moan was heard and Harry began to stir. He licked his lips slightly and his eyes opened.
"Hey, Harry. It's me, 'Mione."
Harry smiled.
"Hey."
Hermione wrapped her arms around Harry's neck and slowly laid down on him.
"How are you feeling, baby?"
"A little better."
"That's good to hear."
She pressed her lips against Harry, in a large kiss. The kiss lasted a few minutes.
"I hope you feel better soon."
"I hope I do too so I can spend more time with you. I've been such a crappy boyfriend lately."
A look of shock appeared on Hermione's face.
"You have not! You've been great!"
"But we haven't been able to do anything. All I do is lay around!"
"Just being with you is great, Harry," said Hermione, running a finger down Harry's neck.
They kissed once again. Hermione suddenly pulled away.
"I have to go now. We have Potions in ten minutes. I'll come back after class I promise."
"Okay, I'll see you later."
"See you."
Hermione kissed Harry forehead.
"I love you."
"Love you too."
Hermione gave him a small hug and left the boys' dormitory.
Author's Note: I know that that was very short. I've lost the whole story and I've forgotten a lot of what is supposed to happen. If you have any ideas please tell me or send me an email at You can also e-mail me just to talk if you like. I love meeting new people.
Feedback:
Dreams of Magic: Well, Ron is telling him where to point his wand, so that he won't send his spells in the wrong direction. It is harder for him to do magic without his sight, but he has been getting training out of class; along with his Braille and other stuff. I don't know if the blind are able to do magic without sight, but it wasn't said anywhere in the books, so I made it possible.
CatClaws: Was it too short or something? Yay! Harry! I'm not a shipper of Harry and Hermione dating, but I wanted to try something new. I like to try new things that haven't been in pass stories I've written. I like Harry and Ginny better.
Manutjuh: I like Harry and Ginny together, but I made Harry and Hermione go together because I had never written about that before. The 'Losing Myself'-'The Perfect Family' will be Harry and Ginny. It's going to be a sixology (my word), but they don't start dating until the end of the third part (sequel to Losing Myself). Ginny dies though; later in one of the sequels.
Hakkai-Gojyo-Goku-Sanzo: In my stories I like to have drama and angst, along with a lot of fluff. I love it when Harry suffers greatly, and then ends up happy again. He won't end up happy in the end of this story though…Muhahaha!! Keep reading.
ChibiYugiYasha: I love it when Harry is happy with a girlfriend. All fluffy, fluffy and fluffy. Yay! Happy days! I don't really watch TV much, so I wouldn't know many anime TV shows, but I watch them when I do watch TV. I just don't know the names. Everyone finds me weird for not liking TV. I don't like candy either. I do watch TV however, for the music channels. I have satellite so we have these special channels that play a certain genre of music. I always watch the Gold Rock, 70s channel, Rock and Roll channel and Rock channel. They play the BEATLES! Lot's of my other favourites too, like Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, Queen, Jethro Tull, Nirvana, Elvis, The Who, Black Sabbath and all sorts of others that I like. Ooo! And Cher too!
FroBoy: I'm glad that you liked it. You know how you said that you had a curly fro? Well are you European? I am lol, and my hair is really curly too.
Sexy Black: Good Brittany, how are you?
tayk: Okay, I won't swear anymore. Lol, my friend Melissa hates it when I swear. She wants me to write 'lmbo' instead of 'lmao'. She wants me to say butt, instead of the other word that starts with an A. Lol, you should meet her.
Aqua Mage: The physical injuries have all been healed. The other stuff like the blindness was caused by brain damage (I made up the type of damage and I was told that my own type of brain damage was wrong, lol). There are some physical injuries that can't be healed my magic though. Remember in the fifth book, Arthur got bitten by a snake and he had to wear all those bandages and even tried to sew it himself? That wasn't able to be healed by magic. That's why I had all the muggle machines. I read somewhere in the books, don't remember where, that the body can weaken with an overdose of magic. That another reason why I had the muggle machines.
lyss33: Harry seemed so cute in my head when I wrote it. I like my stories to look good when I actually think of the scenes in my head. Also, when I write the dialect between each other, I make sure that it is something that I would actually say; not like the dialect in bad acting. I like to act out my stories and other peoples' stories as well. I want to e an actress or a singer when I grow up.
athenakitty: They can't sue the Death Eaters just like that. They know who they are, but they have no proof for the Ministry that it was them that did it. Harry won't be getting his eyes fixed, sadly. The story is only going to be eight chapter long and something horrible and bad will be happening in the last chapter. Lol, you said Fudgie, I like that!!
HecateDeMort: Yay! I'm great! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! THANK YOU! I LOVE YOU! I like all compliments and constructive criticism. Not flames though, unless there is advice on how to make my story better. I once got a flame for another story that said, "The first chapters were okay, but they rest of them sucked! You suck, you really do!" It didn't help me with my writing.
Sarya San: I'm soooooooooo glad that you liked it. Who is your favourite character? Mine is REMUS! Yay! When I think of him, he is so bloody hot! And then it would be Sirius and then Harry. Very hot as well, though more Sirius than Harry. I don't think of Daniel Radcliffe when I think of Harry. I really don't think of David Thewlis and Gary Oldman when I think of Remus and Sirius. They're way too old.
And also feedback for my best friend Mélissa who was evil and did not review or even read the chapter. Lol. Hello Mel!
