Authors notes; it came to my attention that the earlier chapters were hard to read so I revised them, so hopefully I got out all the grammatical errors. I try but it's hard without a beta reader so please have patience with me .I like to thank all the reviewers and please keep telling me how it is or if there is anything you like to see happen thank you all very much dolphingirl79

It was dark when Harry Potter woke up. His vision was all fuzzy and disoriented. He felt around for his glasses, but could not find them. He groaned to himself. It seemed that the whole world was spinning around him, as he was on one of those muggle merry go-rounds.

He heard the sound of pounding drums in his ears, and splitting pain in his head.

He wondered where he was. He slowly began to look around in the darkened room and he realized he was in the hospital wing. Then the memories came back to him. Ron he thought he jumped up to get out of bed, but only succeeded in being tangled in the sheets. Harry only heard a dull thump, and then his world went black.

Harry awoke again, but this time to a blinding light. He heard blurred voices. He opened his eyes but everything was fuzzy. He reached over to put in his glasses, but he could not find them.

"Looking for something," asked a very familiar female voice. He felt something cold and hard drop into his hands. It turned that it was his glasses. He quickly put them on, and he saw Ginny standing beside his bed.

"How is Ron," Harry managed to croak out. "He will be just fine in a few days," replied Ginny quietly. Then Harry asked the question of the hour "how bad am I injured he asked her."

Ginny just looked him grimly, Harry felt his heart plummet. "You'll live I believe." Ginny told him breaking out into a smile. Harry reached over to grab at her and held her, "you little crazy cute little imp," he told her teasingly. He drew her in to give her a kiss. As he began to deepen the kiss and really began to enjoy himself when he heard the sound of "ahem," he quickly broke apart from Ginny. Harry felt himself blushing, but Ginny was looking quite abashed.

He quickly looked around and saw Madame Pomfrey standing at the end of his bed looking at him sternly.

"You need your rest young man," Madame Pomfrey berated him. "You have had a nasty fall last night that didn't help the fact that you already a concussion," Madame Pomfrey continued.

"Is Ron Awake," asked Harry curiously. "Ronald just had a bump on the head and a broken arm." He will probably be released soon. Said Madame Pompfrey crisply. "You can see him later, but now you need to rest". Madame Pompfey told him sternly.

Harry really did not think he needed more rest. He just longed to go back to his dorm. Harry gave Madame Pompfey a sour look while he grabbed a hold of the dreamless sleep potion that she held out to him. He took it and drank the potion, while Ginny just watched silently. "Will I be able to stay with him," she asked.

Madame Pomfrey. Madame Pomfrey tried to look stern but her eyes hid a smile. "You can but only if you don't disturb his rest. The moment I see that he is being disturbed you will be right out of here. Is that understood?"

"Yes Madame Pompfey." Ginny had a hard time not rolling her eyes. Ginny went over and took Harry's hand and entwined them with hers .He looked up at her with a look of love. Ginny felt her knees go weak, but she gave him the same look back. Harry had a smile on his face as he closed his eyes and let the dreamless sleep potion take effect.

When Harry woke up again, he saw Ron sitting at the end of his bed. "Well I wondered when the bloody hell you were going to finally wake up." Ron said with a smile on his face. Harry rubbed his eyes and put on his glasses .He looked at Ron and told him "I'm glad you are all right."

"We were more bloody worried about you than about me," Ron sputtered out."You broke my fall, but you spiraled your broom into the ground."

Harry winced, "how is my broom?" He hoped that it was ok, but he remembered his old Nimbus.

Ron's blue eyes met Harry's green ones. "Only minor damage, I expect that you will be able to fix it with your broomstick servicing kit.

At least the womping willow did not get a hold of the firebolt, as it did to my Nimbus 2000, Harry thought. He quickly changed the subject and asked Ron, "How are things going with Hermione?"

Ron blushed at the sound of Hermione's name. We are back together again; she stayed with me the entire time I was in the hospital." She wanted to see you, but I made go to the dorms and get some rest," Ron said blushingly. "She will be by later on and drop off your work that you missed,"

Madame Pomfrey came up to Harry, looked at him, and said, "You seem to be doing much better you will be released tomorrow." Harry let out a sigh of relief. At least he was not going to spend all week in the hospital wing

."Hey mate," Ron began. "I'll see you later I have got to go to class."

Harry saw him groan at the prospect of it. As Ron left Harry felt a feeling of boredom come over him. Then Harry felt someone nudging him .He looked over and saw Dobby, carrying his breakfast tray.

"How is Mr. Harry Potter doing today," Doby asked.

"I am doing fine," Harry quickly said. "Dobby got Mr. Harry Potter a present, Dobby made them himself", Dobby said proudly. Harry was not at all surprised when Dobby gave him a pair of mismatched socks. One of the socks had dancing goblins on them. The other one had dragons breathing out fire.

"Thanks," said Harry trying to make his voice sound enthusiastic. When Dobby left Harry let out a sigh of relief.

Harry saw Hedwig fly towards him with a note attached to her. Harry quickly untied the note from Hedwig, and began to read.

Harry,

I hope you do not mind, but I borrowed Hedwig. I am sorry

That I was not here when you woke up, but I had class that I had to go. I really do

Not fancy getting another detention this year. I will stop back during lunch to see you.

I hope you are not giving Madame Pompfrey hell. I love you!

See you later,

Love Ginny /

Harry was quickly looking forward to lunch, he could feel stomach rumbling. However, he felt his eyes start to grow heavy with sleep again. Harry laid his head back down, and pulled the covers back over him. Harry took his glasses off, and fell back to a dreamless sleep.
