When I Wake

Chapter 3: Time can be a bitch

Disclaimer: I don't own nuffin cept the plot!

When Harry woke up the next morning hey remembered it was time for classes. He wondered what he had today and remembered he had double History of Magic first, then he had double Transfiguration, then it was double Defence against the Dark Arts. He got dressed and went down for breakfast in the great hall.

When he got there he sat next to Ron, who for once wasn't with Hermione, and asked him how he was doing. All he got was a smile and nothing more.

"Ron what's going on?" Harry asked not liking the look on his face.

Now Ron laughed and said "You wouldn't believe me if I told you".

"Just tell me Ron" Harry was getting a bit frustrated and he didn't know why.

"What if I told you that I made it to home base with Hermione?" he said.

Harry was confused.

"Fourth base what the fuck does that mean?" Harry said scratching his head.

"Oh you don't I'll explain later but what I mean is we boogied in bed together" he said.

Harry still didn't get it.

"You danced in bed?" Harry said.

"Oh my god Harry you're so stupid how obvious do I have to make it for you?" Ron exclaimed.

"What are you talking about?" Harry asked.

"We did what is required to do to make a baby" Ron said.

Comprehension dawned on Harry's face.

"What you mean you had sex and Hermione's pregnant now?" Harry asked.

At this point Ron slapped him over the head.

"Ow what was that for?" Harry said.

"You are an absolute idiot. No Hermione is not pregnant, but we did have sex" Ron said his face going steadily red.

"Oh I get ya now" Harry said.

"About frickin time" Ron exclaimed.

At this point the bell went signalling classes and they got up and left the great hall.

They were nearly at Professor Binns' class when Harry asked Ron "so how was it?"

"I am only going to say one thing and that is awesome. I will not answer any more of your questions" Ron said to him as they lined up outside the door.

"Ok I get you. Where is Hermione by the way?" Harry asked.

"Oh she gets the day off classes because she is sick" Ron said looking upset.

They were now going inside the classroom.

"How bad is she?" Harry asked when they sat down in their usual seats at the back of the classroom.

"Oh not to bad she was just throwing up this morning. Madam Pomfrey said she should be fine by tomorrow" Ron said.

"Ok that's cool" Harry replied. Then professor Binns began his speech on the wars of the ancient tribes of Madagascar and Harry fell into his usual stupor. He was dragged from it much sooner than he would have liked by Ron jabbing him in the arm with his quill.

"Its time to go idiot" Ron said.

"Really I didn't even hear the bell go" Harry said rubbing his eyes "what have we got now?"

"Umm lets see, double transfiguration" Ron said after consulting his timetable.

"Lets get going than or we'll be late and that'll be a detention from McGonagall, which is something I'm sure you don't want" Harry said walking of in the wrong direction.

"Harry where are you going? We go this way" Ron asked pointing in the opposite direction to the one Harry was walking in.

"What, oh shit, damn it I am really not myself today" Harry said turning around and walking the right way.

"Nerves is it?" Ron asked.

"What do you mean?" Harry said.

"Hermione told me about the talent quest and you joining" Ron smirked.

"Hey shut up, yeah I guess it is. I dunno why I'm nervous this far away from the actual thing" Harry said.

"Look I'm sure you'll be fine stop worrying about it and it'll all be fine" Ron said.

"Mmmm" was all that came out of Harry's mouth.

Before Ron could say anything Professor McGonagall came out and ushered them into the classroom where they proceeded to learn how to turn a tea cup into a magpie.

lllllllllllllllllllllll

Harry yawned, there were only five minutes until he could finally go and see Hermione. The clock didn't seem to be moving and Harry was getting pissed off because he was so bored.

Finally the clock ticked over and the bell went. Harry packed up all his stuff and raced to the hospital wing to see Hermione.

"Hey Harry how are you?" she asked when she saw him.

"I'm good but never mind about me, how are you?" he asked.

"Oh me I'm fine, madam Pomfrey just wanted to keep me in just in case it was more than a stomach bug but she said I should be able to go to classes tomorrow" she said scratching her head.

"Well that's cool" Harry said suddenly aware that he was blushing and he didn't know why.

"Ron said he'd be here to see you he just had to stay back after Defence against the Dark Arts to help pack away some stuff" Harry said. At that exact moment after Harry had finished talking Ron burst into the hospital wing.

"Ah speak of the devil" Harry said "did you get it all done?" he added to Ron.

"Yeah" Ron said.

"Hey babe how are you?" Hermione asked him.

"I'm great sexy how are you?" he asked back.

At that point Harry stood up and said "I'll leave you two to it then. See you later"

"Bye Harry" came the reply as he walked out the door. He decided to go for a walk around the lake because he felt like a walk and he needed some fresh air.

When he got halfway around he sat down and just looked at the sky for a while. He watched the clouds float by and dreamed he was floating up with them.

When he woke up it was dark. Shit he thought and he ran back to the common room. When he got there Ron was waiting for him.

"Where have you been?" he asked.

"I fell asleep beside the lake sorry" Harry apologized.

"It's alright I was just worried you'd hurt yourself you know?" Ron said.

"Dude I'm fine I promise, now let's just get to bed" Harry said.

A/N: Hope u liked it. Don't even ask me what Harry's going to be singing because it's a secret you'll find out in a few chaps!
