Chapter 7
"Oh dear! What happened to Mr. Potter?!"
"I DON'T KNOW, I JUST FOUND HIM LIKE THIS!"
"Mr. Weasley! I know he's your friend, but don't yell here!"
"Ron… please…"
"Okay… I'm sorry Ma'am…"
"None point taken, lay him on a bed Mr. Weasley while I fire call the headmaster"
"What happened Ron?"
"I don't know! After I apologized to Harry, I went up to bed and fell asleep, then I woke up and went to the bathroom and found him like this…"
"I should go and tell Geohmmm…"
"I know about them Hermione… But I think we should not tell him just yet-"
"Excuse me?"
"We should not tell him-"
"And why is that your decision all of the sudden?"
"I mean… We shouldn't wake him up and-"
"RON! Your brother is Harry's boyfriend! I think it's more than right to tell him that Harry is up here in a state we don't know jet!"
"IT'S NOT THAT I THINK WE SHOULD TELL HIM I JUST THINK-"
"FOR GOD SAKE RON! YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TOO DECIDE WHAT IS RIGHT, RIGHT NOW! YOU HAVEN'T BEEN THERE AS A FRIEND TO HARRY AND-"
"WHAT IS THIS COMMOTION ABOUT?!"
"…"
"…"
"Mr. Weasley and Mrs. Granger I know that you are worry about Mr. Potter, but if you even think of raising your voice again, I will kick the too of you out! Do I make myself clear?"
"Yes Madame Pomfrey…"
"Poppy?"
"Ah, Professor Dumbledore, McGonagall, Snape and Moody!"
"How's Harry?"
"I don't know yet, sir. I was going to cheek up on him but I had to keep Mr. Weasley and Mrs. Granger in check first"
"Oh, we heard… I wouldn't be surprise if they woke the whole school up…"
"Who found him, Poppy?"
"It was I, sir"
"Could you explain what happened?"
"Yes sir…"
…
Ron's flashback
"Where is he?!" George asked Hermione who had a muggle binocular around her hands and was scoping up in the air to find Harry.
I was standing in the row behind George, Fred, Hermione and Neville with Seamus and Dean. Seamus and Dean cheered for Harry and they too were starting to get worried.
I didn't told them, but I wanted Harry to win as well…
I had felt empty and regretful for a long time...
"I don't see him…" I heard Hermione say after scanning the air once again. George fell on his knees and Fred took a hand an patted on his shoulder.
Why was he doing that?
"NO WAIT! I SEE HIM!" yelled Hermione and I together with the whole group looked into the spot of the sky were she pointed. All I could see was a dot that became bigger and bigger until you could see that the dot was none other than Harry.
He swooped down to the nest and took the golden egg and the crowed went wild.
"AND HARRY POTTER HAS THE EGG!" shouted Bagman's voice through the cheering crowd and Harry was taking to the tent were the other champion's were.
Though I knew that Harry had become close with George, Fred and Neville I didn't expect to see George ran so fast to the tent. I got curious and I said to Seamus and Dean that I would catch them later in the common room and went after him and them.
As I got to the tent I heard and saw a lot…
I didn't have the courage to go inside the tent and because Harry and me had become less than friends, I thought it was the best to talk to him alone later, so I found a small hole in the fabric and look in.
What I saw REALLY surprised me!
For the first I didn't know mom was here, for the second of all I thought Harry would look worse than he did and for the third!
George was kissing Harry!
And Harry didn't fight back and let him in into his mouth and they kissed for ages!
The others didn't look surprised at all! Well except for me, Cedric, Fleur and Krum though the three of them smiled pretty quickly.
Well, Krum smirked and shook his head…
Then I felt that someone was standing next to me and it was a Ravenclaw girl named Luna Lovegood.
"Hello" she said and smiled to me.
"Eh… hi…" I responded and started to fell a bit uncomfortable since she just stared to me with an airy expression.
"It's beautiful isn't it?" she asked me and I regained myself "Sorry?" I asked her.
"Harry and George… Your brother makes him very happy…" she said and looked into a spot in the fabric, like she could see right through it. It was spooky!
"I didn't know…" I told her and looked into the hole again and saw how Fred hit George's shoulder and Harry and George broke apart and glared at him while the other's laughed and hugged Harry.
I felt myself like an outcast and the only one I could blame on was myself…
"Why aren't you in there?" Luna asked me and looked at her and let out a sigh.
"I screwed things up…" I confessed "I'm sure he forgives you if you talk to him… He's a person who forgives… He's wrackspurts told me that he is a forgiver…" she said and I looked probably more confused as she gave me a smile and skipped away into the castle.
It wasn't until later this night I got some time alone with Harry. He had gone to the bathroom and I followed him.
And yes I know that sounds wired! Don't give me that look Hermione!
"Hi…" I said to Harry as he opened the door and saw me standing in front of him. He looked surprised and even a bit scared… What had I done…
"Ron…" he said after a minute of silence.
"I… I want to apologize… You know for everything…" I told him and I saw that his eyes softened a little bit but he was still disbelieving, I don't blame him.
"Why?" he asked me and I looked at him and sighed.
"The first few months, after your name came out of the goblet, I was angry… I really thought you had done it… Then as the first trial came closer I started to get afraid…"
"Why?" he asked since I stopped to find the right words.
"I was afraid to lose you… You are or were my best friend… You have been like a brother to me and I fell so stupid! Stupid for letting myself go so low like I did!" I confessed and it felt like a huge troll had stood on me and finally let me go.
It became quiet and I could see the thoughts go through his mind.
"You know it will take a while for me to completely forgive you…" he finally said and I looked at him relived.
"So we are friends again?" I said and he nodded "In time" he said and the two of us smiled and I haven't felt that happy for a long time!
Anyway, he went to bed and I felt tired so I decided to go to bed as well. I know thought before I drifted off to sleep, that I had to talk about him and George sometime. Then after a couple of hours of sleep I woke up. I felt a bit surprised since I am a deep sleeper, but I sensed that something was wrong.
So I got up and started to look around. Everyone was sleeping but I saw that Harry's bed was empty. I got up and went to the bathroom. It was then I found him… He was lying on the bathroom floor lifeless. I panicked and picked him up and was going down to the common room and it was there I found Hermione and we got here…
End of flashback
Meanwhile Ron told his story did Madame Pomfrey her check ups and made a gesture to Dumbledore and Snape, the three of them went to her office, without a word to the others. Moody clearly didn't like it since he was about to go after them but Madame Pomfrey made it clear that she only wanted to talk to Dumbledore and Snape alone, and Moody was smart to not do as she said. He was standing on the foot of Harry's bed while his left eye was looking were Pomfrey, Snape and Dumbledore was.
Hermione was taken aback a bit when Ron had told them that he knew about Harry and George, and she felt a bit guilty and ashamed by herself that she had too turned her back against Ron through these past few months. She was also a bit embarrassed to have exploded on Ron a few minutes ago. She was now sitting on a chair beside Harry's side and placed her hand on Harry's.
McGonagall was by Hermione's side and placed a hand on Hermione's shoulder.
Ron was looking out to the window. He was watching the moon when Dumbledore and the other two came out of Pomfrey´s office.
Snape went passed them and out of the infirmary without looking at them. Moody's eye was locked at him when he closed the door behind him.
Both Hermione's and Ron's faces were locked on Dumbledore's both with worry on their eyes as Dumbledore's face was unusually depressed. Different times, when Harry had found himself in the infirmary Dumbledore had always seam calm about it, but not this time…
McGonagall hadn't seen that look on Dumbledore's eyes, well at least not for a long time. Last time Dumbledore had that expression on his face was when James and Lily Potter…
"Harry is dying…" Dumbledore said and no one could move a muscle off the shook.
Not even Moody.
So Ron knows about Harry and George, but is he really fine with it? And how will George react when he finds out about Harry's condition? AND will Harry die?
