Chapter 14 Playing the hero

Rons pov

He was laying on the cold floor when the door creaked open and a few hooded death eaters came in. They walked over to him quickly and asked him if he was alright. Up close he realized who they were and he said he was fine. Although that was far from the truth. It was almost noon and all night and morning Voldemort and his death eaters would come in and play with him, beating him and using the cruciatus curse on him. They helped him to stand up and put a portkey in his hand. As he spun he could fell himself getting sick and he knew if he had had food in his stomach, he would have puked. Landing on the cold floor of the Grimauled Place kitchen was not a pleasant welcome back. He wanted to see Hermione. He wanted to know her answer. But the group kept him in the kitchen to clean him up and tell him that Harry had been taked as well and that now he was here. Then Mrs. Weasly was hovering over him checking him over when she noticed a long, deep gash in his stomach/ chest. Then they told him they were going to take him to the hospital cause his wounds were too serious.

"Can Herm and Harry come along?" He asked his mom.

"No, sorry but no." She said quickly, "Do you know what kind of security wed need to take Harry? Not worth it, plus we don't have that kind of time. And can't take Hermione either. They both went to sleep hours ago when Harry got back. You'll see them later." And with that they took a portkey to a deserted alley were they took the subway to the hospital.

After kissing Hermione he felt like everything in the world was alright. And that was the last thing he thought about as they both feel asleep in each other's arms. Harry woke up before Hermione did and looked at his watch, no wonder he was hungry, it was 11:30. He wondered if Ron was found yet. He was really worried, and if Ron was hurt he knew he would blame himself. He held Hermione tighter and ran his free hand through her hair, accidentally waking her up.

"How long have you been awake?" She asked groggily.

"Not long, like 5 minutes." He said quietly.

"Well... Did you sleep well?" Harry asked giving her a huge grin.

"The best." Hermione said quietly giving him a coy smile. He looked around. Warm summer air and light was pouring in through the window screen. Ginny wasn't in her bed.

"Where's Ginny?" He asked Hermione.

"When Ron was taken, she said she was going to go sleep in Fred and George's room. Thank goodness she didn't come in this morning. If were keeping this on the down low then it would have been blown." Hermione answered. But as she said it dawned on Harry that his best friend was out there with some psycho and it was because of him.

"Herm don't try to stop me but I'm going to find Ron, he's at that house. Voldemort wants me not him." Hermione looked shocked,

"NO Harry you'll be killed, others are looking for him now."

"YES BUT all I have to do is walk around and his followers will find me and take me to him and to Ron." He had made up his mind. He grabbed Hermione and kissed her gently, then still kissing her got up of the bed with her and pulled out his wand.

"I love you, ill be back." She went to grab him and pull him back but he rushed out the door and ran down the stares, wrenching the door open once he reached it. He heard Hermione yelling behind him and he hear Mrs. Weasly yelling,

"No Harry stay inside!!!" But it was too late, once he was outside he stuck out his wand and the Knight bus stopped to let him on.

Ron was in a great deal of pain as he was cleaned up, healed and bandaged in a white room in the hospital. His mind felt weirdly blurred. Maybe it was from being tortured so much that night/morning. He wasn't taking anything anyone around him said. He only knew that there were at least five people around him, one was his dad, and another was Bill and Charlie and Percy who was talking more like yelling at his dad. He didn't know who the others were.
