You woke up in bed and looked around. You did not regognise the room. You looked around some more and realised that you were in the Hospital Wing. On your left Draco was sitting in bed with Crab and Goyal eating at his sides. "Well hello." Draco said. You looked straight ahead and didn't reply to him. " I said HELLO!" Draco almost shouted. You didn't even look his way. You crossed your arms. Crab and Goyal punched the palms of their hands.
The door to the hospital wing swung open and you saw Harry enter with Hermione. "Sarah!" Hermione shouted. She ran to you and hugged you. "We were so worried! You've been out cold for 4 days!" You hugged her back, feeling weak. "What happened?" you said. "Don't you remember?" Hermione said. "I can remember...Harry was with Neville warning Malfoy...and then...that's all..." you said quietly. "Malfoy hit you so hard so many times you got a concussion, and though Maddam Pomphrey healed all of your wounds you still didn't wake up. She said you might not wake for several months!" Harry arrived to your side. "Why is Draco here?" you asked. "Harry hit him with the obidience spell. He has to do everything he's ordered. It should last for a few months. Madam Pomphrey is trying to undo the spell." You smiled weakly. "Harry," you said quietly. "Thank you..." "Thank Neville. He came and got me." Harry said, brushing you hair out of your face. "Neville..." you whispered.
You felt your eyes water. "I remember more now...I asked Neville to get help...when I gave him his book..." tears started to stream down your face. You weren't sobbing or sniffling, or crying, you were just "tearing up". Your voice shook a little but you continued to talk. "I'm sorry." Harry hugged you. You saw at the corner of your eye the jealous look on Draco's face. You hugged him back. "I'm sorry, I should be able to stand up for myself." you said, feeling helpless. "If you hadn't have come.." your voice sounded more winey. Harry continued hugging you. "It's okay." he said. "Do not worry." "I'm sorry," you wined. You wiped some tears from your face. "I'm too much trouble."
"Don't say that," Hermione said in a voice full of sympathy. "If someone did that to me I wouldn't have lastest nearly as long as you did." You gave Hermione a small smile.
Madam Pomphrey then entered the hospital wing. "Oh, you're awake." she said. She went to a counter and brought you a bar of chocolate. "Eat this, dear, and you'll feel much better." You slowly extended your arm and took it. You wiped some more tears from your eyes and bit into it. "Thank you." Madam Pomphrey nodded. "Now you children get out of here. Sarah needs her rest." Harry stood up and grabbed your hand. He held it for 5 seconds, and gently let go and walked off with Hermione after they both said goodbye.
You watched them leave and began feeling lonely. You finished you chocolate slowly. "Hey," Draco said to you. You ignored him. He repeated himself, louder. Finally you turned to him, "Leave me alone." You said, remembering the curse that Harry had given him. With Draco leaving you alone, you laid back down and fell asleep.
You woke up the next day at 8 A.M. You still felt weak, but not as much. You saw that Draco was gone, and realized it was Saturday. You sat up. Madam Pomphrey was walking about checking on some other patients. "Ma'em, when will I be better enough to leave the hospital wing?" You asked. "You can leave tomorrow." Madam Pomphrey said. "ok," you said, feeling disappointed that you couldn't leave today. That's when Ron entered. "ello Sarah." Ron said. "You okay?" You nodded. "Yeah,...just tired. And I ache a little. But, yeah I'm alright." You painfully sat up straighter. "How are you doing?" "Good, good. We were all real worried about you. Even Neville. You should've seen yourself when you got here. You had 2 black eyes and there was blood running down your face." You smiled. "Do I look better?" Ron grinned. "Yeah, a lot." "good," you said, and laughed. "How's the jerk?" Ron grinned. "Detension for the rest of the year." You smiled. "good." You smiled and laid back down. "did they undo that curse? the one Harry gave Draco?" "no, but they let him out." You smiled wider. "Because yesterday when Hermione told me,...I told Draco to leave me alone..." you explained. "I hope he'll never bother me again."
You woke up. It was Sunday. You sat up. It was 8 A.M. Madam Pomphrey was walking to you with some chocolate. "You're free to go, dear, just eat this before leaving." You ate the chocolate and thanked her, and left the hospital wing. You walked to the Griffonder common room. You were still tired, oh so tired. But you told yourself not to fall asleep until later that night.
"Sarah?" Harry was sitting on the couch with Hermione. You sat down on it as well. "You're out?" "yeah," you sighed. "How are you feeling?" Hermione said. "A little achy, and tired. But other than that okay." "There were a lot of people worried about you!" Hermione said. "Ron, Harry, Fred, George, Neville, Me, even Ron's mum and dad. They don't even know you." You smiled, feeling loved. "Thanks for caring," "Your welcome," Hermione said. "Anytime." Harry said.
"Well, I'm glad your okay, I guess I'll go tell everyone." Hermione said, getting up. She hugged you quickly and ran out of the common room. You watched her leave. Then you looked over at Harry. He was looking at you with worry, sympathy, relief, and love written on his face. "Harry," you said, scooting next to him. "Harry, thank you so much. Thank you for saving me from Draco." Harry wrapped his arms around you. You were so tired. So, so tired. You laid your head against his chest. You could hear his heart beating. Ba-dump. Ba-dump. Ba-dump.
You looked up at him. He looked back down at you, smiling. You closed your eyes and leaned your head as far up to him as you could. He met your lips, kissing you romantically. You came back from the kiss and rested your head on his chest again. He started carressing your back as you laid down. Slowly you closed your eyes. Just before you fell asleep you whispered, "please wake me whenever Hermione gets back."
