Tonks ran out of the room with Severus right behind her. When they arrived back in Severus' room they found Remus holding a plastic dish under Harry as he threw up. There was blood everywhere. Harry had no color in his face. Severus asked,
"What happened?" Remus looked up from his cub and said,
"Everything was fine we were just talking and then all of a sudden he just lost all the color in his face and he began to throw up oatmeal and blood." Tonks went over to Harry and asked,
"Does anything hurt?" Harry nodded and pointed to his stomach. He didn't have the energy to argue. Tonks and Severus immediately knew what had happened. Harry had eaten the oatmeal way to fast and it had caused the stitches in his stomach to rip. Severus went over to his desk and grabbed a syringe out of his desk and filled it up with an anesthetic. He quickly walked back over to the bed and said,
"I am sorry buddy!" Just as Severus was about to inject the meds Harry began to throw up again. He threw up for about another minute and then he stopped. Severus gently grabbed Harry's arm and injected the meds into Harry's arm. Harry winced in pain and squeezed Remus' hand. After a few minutes, Harry began to fall asleep. Remus and Tonks helped lay him down on his back. Once he was completely asleep, Severus wiped the blood off of Harry's face and placed the oxygen mask on Harry's face and turned on the machine. He then attached the heart monitor pads on Harry's chest and turned on the heart monitor machine. He then grabbed two pairs of gloves and put one on and tossed the other one to Tonks. Then he grabbed the scalpel and looked at Tonks who nodded and Severus placed the blade on Harry' stomach and made a small incision just above the other one that was almost all ready healed. Blood went everywhere. Remus handed Tonks some lap pads. After about five minutes, they finally got the bleeding under control. Severus found the source of the bleeding and sure thing the stitches had popped open and Harry was bleeding out again. Severus turned to Remus and said,
I need you to grab blood from the cabinet and hang it on the nail on the wall. Then I need you to insert the tube into Harry's IV." Remus nodded and quickly did what Severus asked. Severus and Tonks finally got the bleeding to stop. He then restitched up Harry's stomach. This time he made the stitches a little bit closer together in hopes that they would not pop. Then he closed Harry's outer stomach. Severus breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Tonks. Then he turned to Remus and Sirius and said,
"You two need to go take a shower." They nodded and left the room. Severus pulled his gloves off and threw them away. Tonks took hers off and threw them away too. She just looked at Harry and shook her head. Then Remus came back into the room. He looked at Tonks and said,
"Your turn to shower honey." Tonks nodded and went to go take a shower. Remus looked at Severus and said, "Harry is asleep, go take a shower. I will watch him."
"Are you sure?"
"Sev, you need to shower. I've got Harry. Go!" Severus nodded and before he got in the shower Remus filled a bowl with warm water. Then he left the bathroom. Severus then took a shower. Remus grabbed a rag from the cabinet and began to clean up the blood. Tonks come back into the room, grabbed a rag, and began to help Remus clean up the blood. Just then Molly poked her head in the room and as she did she said,
"Hey I have stuff to make sandwiches for lunch with so who wants…" She stopped mid-sentence as soon as she saw all of the blood. Then after a few minutes, she said, "OMG is that blood?" Tonks nodded and pulled Molly into the room and explained everything. She ended by saying,
"We don't know 100% why Ron picked on Harry according to Harry he was tired about hearing about the boy that lived. I am only going off of what Harry told me. He also had a panic attack when ever Ron's is around or his name is mentioned." Molly just stood there in shock for a few minutes. Then she said,
"Ron is in trouble. I will talk to Arthur when he comes home from work. I am very sorry for my son's behavior towards Harry. What kind of sandwich would you guys like?" Tonks decided on a turkey and cheese with lettuce and tomato. Remus decided on the same thing just without the tomato. Severus walked out of the bathroom and decided on peanut butter and banana. As Molly was leaving the room, Sirius came in and he wanted a grilled turkey and cheese. Severus got out a syringe and filled it with a potion to wake Harry up. He then walked over to Harry unplugged the tube coming from the bag of blood and injected the medicine into the IV and plugged the blood tube back in. Tonks and Remus got the blood all cleaned up just as Molly brought up the lunches. Molly set the tray down and left the room. Tonks began to pass out the sandwiches when Harry began to stir. Severus walked over to him and picked up his left wrist to check his pulse. It was good. Severus took off the oxygen mask and turned off the machine. Tonks went over to Harry and asked him,
"How are you feeling?"
"I am fine." Harry replied. Tonks gently placed her hand on Harry's stomach and slightly pressed down. Harry winced in pain. He then caught himself and tried to stop but he failed miserably. Severus brought over a pain potion and Harry took it willingly not wanting to get into trouble. After a little bit, Harry began to feel a bit better. He decided that he didn't want any food. Severus gave him a nutrition potion through his IV. Just then an owl appeared at the window. Sirius opened the window and the owl flew into the room and dropped a note in Harry's lap then landed on the windowsill. Harry grabbed the note opened it and looked at it for a few second then he read the note the best that he could. Tonks helped him when he needed help. The note read,
Dear Harry,
I hope that you are doing well. I have not heard from you since we left the train station. I hope that you actually get this note. I miss talking to you. Please respond so that I know that you are alive and that your uncle has not killed you.
Love
Yours truly,
Your friend,
H. Granger
Harry and Tonks finished reading the note and Harry smiled. He then asked for a quill, ink and a piece of parchment paper. Severus handed the items to Harry and then charmed the quill to write the letter for Harry. He sent the following response to Hermione,
Dear Hermione,
I am good. I am at Grimwald Place. Professor Lupin and Tonks rescued me from my Aunt and Uncle's house. Let's just say that I will not be coming back to school with bruises or with any broken bones this year. Thanks for checking on me and caring about my well being.
Your friend,
H. Potter.
Tonks put the letter into an envelope, handed it to Sirius who handed it to the owl who flew out the window back to Hermione's place. Tonks then helped Harry into a sitting position with pillows behind him to help prop him up. Tonks then looked at Severus and he looked back at her. She nodded towards Harry and glared at Severus. After a few seconds, Severus figured out what Tonks was getting at. He cleared his throat and walked over to the bed. He looked at Harry and said,
"Ummm… Harry… I am sorry for giving you detention so much during the last two years. I was not aware that you had trouble reading. I should have talked to you and found out why you were not doing your homework rather than assuming that you were just being lazy. I am sorry. Can you please forgive me?" Remus and Sirius' jaws dropped. In all the years that they had known Severus they had never heard in one admit he was wrong and two say he was sorry. Harry was just as shocked as Remus and Sirius. After a few minutes of awkward silence, Harry said,
"Yes Professor Snape I accept your apology and forgive you. Severus gave a quick smile. Just then Sirius sneezed and everyone laughed. Sirius took the tray and plates down to Molly who washed them. After dinner, Arthur came home. Molly met him at the door and said,
"After you eat dinner we need to talk!"
"Okay what's going on?" Arthur asked with a puzzled expression on his face.
"I will explain after dinner." Molly said. She then kissed him and went to the kitchen and got his dinner out of the oven. She then went to the linen closet and got a clean pair of sheets for Harry. She took them upstairs. When she got to the room, Tonks and Remus lifted up Harry so that Molly could change the sheets. They put him down and Molly left the room to go and wash the blood stained sheets. By this time, Arthur had finished dinner and the two of them went into their room to talk. After about an hour the only thing that could be heard throughout Grimwald Place was Arthur screaming,
"Ronald Billius Weasley get your ass in my room now!" Everyone in the whole place shuddered with fear including Ron who gulped as he opened the door to his room and looked down the hall at his pissed off dad staring at him. Ron gulped a second time and slowly walked towards his mad dad.
