Chapter 6- St. Mungo's
(Ron's point of view)
I was sleeping on a chair next to Hermione's bed in St. Mungo's when I woke up with the sound of a deafening scream. I opened my eyes to find Hermione sitting up on her bed, looking around the room.
"Yeah, good mornin' to you, too," I said.
"WHERE'S DRACO!" she demanded.
"Uh…"
"So it's true! It wasn't a dream-it's true!" she burst into tears.
"Yeah…"
"Where is he! Did they find him yet?" she sobbed.
"I don't know…they took us down here and you were asleep, and I didn't want to leave you here, so I slept on this chair. They didn't give us any news yet."
Just then, a Healer knocked on the door. I told her to come in, so she did, saying, "Good morning. My name is Sarah, by the way." She walked over to Hermione's bed and gave her a quick hug. "It's okay, honey…" she calmed her down a bit.
"Any news?" I asked.
"Why, yes, there is," said Sarah, letting go of Hermione.
Instantly, the desperate teen looked up. She hastily asked, "What is it! Tell me!"
"Okay, okay…they found Mr. Malfoy's body."
Hermione was in tears again, sobbing uncontrollably. Sarah went over to the counter and grabbed a towel. She put some rubbing alcohol on it and went over to Hermione. She started to dab the soft towel on Hermione's cuts.
Hermione started to scream as if she were still a 3-year-old girl. "No! That stings! I want to see Draco! NOW!"
"All right, all right!" said Sarah, glaring over at me. "Here we go," she added and helped Hermione get off her bed. I could see a tear running down Sarah's cheek.
"Oh, no…this must be bad," I thought to myself.
They walked, well, she walked, Hermione limped, to the door and I walked ahead of them to open it.
(Hermione's point of view)
As I walked out the door Ron was holding open, he ran ahead of me and the Healer again. He opened the door to Draco's room, peeked in, gasped, and closed it quickly. With wide-open eyes, he tried to talk me out of going in there.
"Wouldn't you rather go back to your nice, warm room and get a cup of water?" he said.
"No, I want to see Draco."
"But-"
"Look, you're making me worried! What's happened to him? He's dead isn't he!" I cried.
"Uh…"
I shook off Sarah and pushed pass Ron to open the door. I screamed when I saw what was happening in there. Sarah walked to me, trying to calm me down. "It's okay…you'll be all right," she said.
"No I won't!" I screamed, shaking. I barged into the room, where many other Healers were shaking their heads and taking off white surgeon gloves. The heart monitor had a thick, red line running along the screen, playing a long, never-ending beep.
I slowly walked up to Draco and collapsed onto his dead body, hugging him and muttering, "No…you're not dead…it's not over…I love you…I love you…you're mine…I love you…" between my sobs.
"This is the worst part of my job," I heard Sarah whisper.
"Oh, Hermione," whispered Ron.
"Go away! Leave us alone!" I cried.
I heard the footsteps of the Healers rushing out of the room. I thought Ron had left, too, until I felt a hand on my shoulder.
"Will you be all right?" he asked.
I couldn't answer, but he left anyway, after whispering, "I love you."
"I…love you, too." I whispered slowly when he left and closed the door.
