after the task everyone celebrated with joy and success. i on the other went to the hospital wing to get my back checked out. i set my egg down on the bed side table and settled down on the bed. after a few minutes madame pomfrey came to give me a check over "ah miss harper...i hear that you connected with your dragon" "news travels fast, but yea after it sonic blasted me into the wall behind me" "oh right, lets get you checked out... can you take of your robes so i can have a look" "sure" whilst madam pomfrey put screen a screen around me for privacy. after i did she told me to lay on my stomach, "oh my, miss harper exactly how hard did you hit the wall" "well lets say i felt a couple of ribs crack and struggle to get up" i said bit muffled due to me face down on a pillow. she started to press and check around "well miss harper your back is competely covered in bruises and three of your ribs are cracked" "will they be healed by the next task" "should be, im going to strap you up and make you a drink that will help as well and in the mean time you can get dressed" she strapping me up in bandages.
when she left she put the screen aside, i started to my shirt back on and thats when i heard a gasp behind me. so i put my shirt on and looked round saw cedric "cedric you scared me" "sorry i've been looking for you to see if your ok and hermione said you came here" "yea to checked out" he came and sat to me on the bed "i saw your back are you ok" "yea i just some bruises and cracked ribs nothing to be worried about" "but i was worried so was everyone else when you didnt get up" "yea i know but i'll be healed soon" "well i best be off let you rest an the lads are waiting for me" "oh ok then see ya later then" "yea" he said kissing my head the he left. well i guess he doesn't love me that much. anyway madam pomfrey came back with in a flask "ah miss harper this will help speed up the the healing process" "cool whats in it" "lets not say but it tastes a bit queer but you need to drink it in one" "ok" so she handed it to me and i drank it in one, she was right it was bitter and queer. i got the rest of clothes on "miss harper you can no leave but be carefull and have loads of rest".
so i headed out after i thanked her and went to the common room. i got to the portrait of the fat lady "password please" she sang "beetle juice" "thakyou, you may enter" so i did and walked up the stairs and saw that everyone was quiet and doing their own thing. i saw none of the gang so i headed over to the sofa infront of the fire. i laid across the sofa and watched the flames of the fire and listened to the crackling of the sap from the logs. i must have fallen asleep because i woke up to someone stroking my hair, i looked up and it was the gang well they were looking down on me from the back of the sofa and it was harry stroking my hair "hey guys" i said tiredly "hey your back with us then" fred said or shall i say asked "yea im back" "just a heads up dont open your egg" i heard a familiar voice say, so i shot up and looked to the chair behind me and sa ron "i thought you weren't talking to me and harry" i told him "well ronald here decided to come to his senses" hermione responded "yea it sort of made sense since you both didnt want to do it" "you couldnt figure that out earlier, anyway friends" "yea" "so about my egg why shouldnt i open it" "well our little prankster if you open it there will be a ear breaking scream" fred started and george finished "not a good idea then".
we spoke for hours then everyone headed to bed "you coming athena" ginny questioned "no im gonna stay up for a bit longer" "same here" harry said "ok then dont be too late got class tomorrow" hermione said so they went to bed and me and harry was on the sofa. i dont know why but i was cold and shivering "are you cold" harry asked "yea dont know why" "come here" he gestured for me to cuddled up to him so i did without a second thought. he squeezed a bit tight and i whimped abit "oh sorry i forgot that you've got injured" "dont worry its only a few cracked ribs and a hell of a lot bruises" "wow are you ok" "yea" so we cuddled some more until harry broke the silence "you know i meant what i said in the tent" "i know i can feel it" "how" "sorceress remember" "oh yea" "so how you and cedric doing" "i dont know actually we seem distant" "oh". we cuddled for another 5 minutes when i decided to go to bed bed "right i guess i see you tomorrow im going to bed" "yea" i went to kiss his cheek but he turned his head and our lips locked. after a few seconds i pulled away and sped walked to bed, not letting the kiss get out of hand and into something deeper.
