Complications
Chapter Nine
Tom
When I woke up I noticed that I could strech my arms out and they wouldn't fall of the bed. I couldn't feel the suport bars through the wimpy cot matres and the bed was actuasly cumfy. I opened my eye to see where I was but the blinding sunlight made me have to either suffer damageble pain and a headach or close my eye again. So decition made I closed my eye then I herd people talking. "You mean he just passed out? Just like that!" It was an almost raspy voice that I had never herd before then there was Profeser Snape's low lagato voice. "I already told you I apparated here and he just passd out. Just like that." The other voice seemed a bit woried. "Well I wonder why that happened?" Profeser Snape sighed and replied. "Well concidering how light he was when I carried him all the way up stairs and he still wasn't heavy even for his bone structure and highth it's still worse than being anerexic. I'd say it's becouse he dosen't eat enough he dosen't have enough body fat even for a wizerd to be helthy and becouse he's so underwight he dosen't have enough stamina to not breath and spin and be pulled at the same time like appereating does to whith out as you can see passing out or being splinched," After I herd that I decided I did not want to be criticized on my eating habits any longer. "What does splinched mean." My voice sounded as if someone had put it in a meat grinder it was so raspy and it hurt my throught a little becouse it hadn't been used since before I fell asleep.
When I sat up my head felt as if I had a sewing needle being jamed through my temples. I had a cafine headach and a bad one. How long have I been asleep and how long has it been since I had coffee. Profeser Snape answered my question. "Splinched is when you apparate and one part of you lands in one place and the other part lands in a different place." Well that sounds interesting. "You mean like cut in two or somthing of the sort?" He raised his eyebrow and said. "Yes. Somthing of that sort and exactly how long have you been awake and litsening to our conversation." I glared at him as I replied. "Long enough to almost feel like apologising for not being able to stomach more than a couple of bites at one meal time after my parents daeth thankyou very much." His eye brow climed higher up his forhead. "Oh realy. Well as touching as that story is we are late enough as it is. We have to get to Hogwarts I already have your stuf from Diagon Ally and we have to leave now."
He then turned and left the room. I swung my legs over the side of the bed and put weight on my feet. I tried to stand but my headach got so bad that the room started spinning. My head hurt and next thing I knew I had colapsed on the floor face first and couldn't move becouse of the throbbing pain pounding through my skull. I guess I made a thump when I hit the floor becouse Profeser Snape came back and said. "What is it now?" I pushed myself up to my knees from my arms and the room started to spin again "Ugh my head hurts." He asked. "Why?" His voice was like a saw splitting my head in two. Even my own voice hurt my head. "It's a cafine headach." I spoke as lightly as I could but just loud enough for them to here me but the idiots obviously didn't think about the fact if they make my head hurt any more i'm going to kill them becouse it seemed as if they were talking louder than normal as they said. "Cafine?" In confustion. "I glared at them as if my eyes were lazers they would be flaming like lighter fliued and as I started speaking the curtains randomly burst into flames. "Two things A) Cafine is a legal drug for all ages in the muggle world and I'm addicted to it. When I don't get it for more than five hours at a time I get headaches B) Is that becouse I haven't had cafine for who knows how long I have a splitting headache and if you talk even half as loud as you just did again I'm going to kill you. Understand?" They nodded. "Good."
I tried to push myself to my feet but I fell again and almost started cring becouse I couldn't stand the pain. "Now can I please get some help back up to the bed." I started to whine. I couldn't help it. The small guy helped me back up into the bed and whispered. "I'm sorry if I was talking too loud erlier. where can I find this cafine for you?" He realy was nice. "The curtain stopped flaming as I also whispered. "Your nice. I'm sorry for yelling erlier. My head just hurts. My name is Triston Mince and you are?" He smiled and quietly replied. "Tom. So where can I get some cafine for you?" I held my head becouse the headach was getting worse but not becouse of any noise. "Probably in a coffe shop in the muggle world or somthing." I carfully laid down on the bed and before I knew it I was passed out again from the throbing in my skull.
When I woke up the first thing I realized was my head hurt even worse. The second thing I notace was I wasn't at home then I remembered every thing that had happeded. then finaly I smelled the faint smell of coffee. I struggled to push myself up to a sitting position. I herd Profeser Snape's voice say. "I see your awake." He made my head hurt even more so I frowned my eyes and probably ended up seting somthing on fire but I could realy care less at the moment. I mumble quietly. "Don't talk so loud where's the coffee? I smell coffee." His voice said he was surprised but didn't bother to mask it concidering my eyes wern't open. "You can smell it when it's all the way down stairs?" I whimpered and mumbled. "Yes and don't talk so loud." he said. "Folow me." I swung my leggs over the side of the bed and tried to stand but I barly put presure on my foot and it slipped and I fell on my but. i wined again and herd Profeser Snapes footsteps continue on. That jerk he sees that I can't walk yet he still expects me to folow. I tried to push my self up from the ground. My leggs were shaky and I took a step and fell face first.
I Saw this wasn't working so I pushed my self up to my hands and knees and began to slowly crawl as to not make my head hurt even more. I got to the door way and the smell of coffee got so strong it was almost as if I was right under it but Profesrr snape said it was downstairs. I cracked an eye open and saw a black jean clad knee. I looked up to see Snape holding a cup of coffee whith his eyebrow raised at me. "I saw you couldn't walk so I brought some up." Well it would have been helpfull for you to tell me you were doing that so I didn't have to make myhead hurt so much more. I whined and tried to reach for the coffee. I put my armes inthe air and as soon as my hand was over my head he put the coffee mug handle in my hand. I didn't care if it was hot I gusled it then set the mug on the floor as I waited for the headach to subdide enough to walk. Then I got up and slowly and made my way down stairs and followed the smell of coffee. I found the muggle coffee machine and Profeser Snape handed me the mug I left in the room. I poured my self another cup and slowly drank the entire pot sitting on the floor infront of the counter. My head stopped hurting and I was able to move and stand whithout pain.
I walked to a near by table then I finaly noticed that Profeser Snape and Tom were looking at me expectantly and I had no idea why. I must have took too long to respond becouse Tom said. "Well." I frowned and replied. "Well." Profeser Snape said. "How's the coffee tast?" I smiled. "Deliciuse." He nodded and said "Well we should get going." I nodded and started folowing him to a fire place. Then he stopped and I had to stop myself from almost running in to him. He turned and said. "Tom get Triston a plate of spagetti so he dosent pass out while were flooing." Tom noded and left as I said "If you make me eat before we leave I'll just through up all over the place once we get there." He glared at me as he replied. "throwing up is better than me having to carry you all the way up to your room." So he's going to force me to eat But he dosen't understand that i've tried eating a normal meal before it just dosen't work i end up throughing up every thing i just ate.
Tom came out whith the plate of spagetti and Profeser Snape pushed me into the chair put a fork in my hand and commanded. "Eat." Then stood all the way up to a minercing hight and watched me as I ate two bites and my stomach said it was full. I put the fork down but Profeser Snape shoved it back into my hand and recommanded. "Eat." I tried to tell him i was full. "But-" "No buts young man eat." I groand as I picked up another bite and I was barly able to stomach the five bites I ate before when he tried to shove the fork back in my hand i just put it back down. "I-" He picked it back up and said. "Eat." "I can't-" "No I can'ts." Now I got frustraited becouse he wasn't listening to me and if there was a rule to being around a sub Inferno Maculus is you never make them frustraited mad or any thing of the sort becouse. "LISTEN TO ME!" That happenes. "I CAN'T EAT ANY MORE MY STOMACH FEELS LIKE IT'S GOING TO EXPLODE!" The table started flaming and snape almost cowered and said in an almost squeaky voice "Ok." Then I calmed down and we left but like I told him when we landed to the headmasters office I throuhg up all over the place.
