A/N: thankyou for the reviews, it's what motivates to keep on writing. As long as there's one review, i'll update chapters. ahahha.
I am now writing this in the Hospital Wing.
Ron and Harry just left a moment ago. They were on their way to the great hall and they heard I was in the Hospital Wing, so they came to check on me.
"Bloody hell! What happened! Ginny! Why is your hair green!"
I covered my hair with the bed sheets.
"Are you ok Ginny?" Harry asked with genuine concern.
I feel so grateful and sad at the same time. If only he could ask with love in his voice.
But then immediately I mental slapped myself.
I don't care…
But I do have to tell my story of how I ended up in the Hospital Wing, because it's too good to just skip over.
Carefully covering my hair with my hat, I held the permission slip in my hand carefully, and my wand in another, and I made my way towards Hagrid's hut.
Fang was there to greet me. I pat him on the head and felt more reassured that he was there behind me.
Hagrid was telling me about his cake recipe.
"I don't use a lot of eggs, 'cause it's gonna be too soft on the cake. You know how I like a little crunch on the side. The icing I make out of goat milk, so they give a nice and rich flavour. Speakin' of which, I ran out of butter, but that's ok, I'll just get some oil fruit from the other end of the forest there.."
I want to point out that Mum usually use oil fruit to marinate the meats. I've never heard of using it in cakes.
Then again, Hagrid's cake is very unusual.
"Ginny, unicorns usually live in packs. I know of a pack that lives at the east end of the forrest. Unicorns don't usually get along with centaurs. Both are highly smart creatures, of course, but I shouldn't start throwing around words like 'smart' fer no reason…"
I became stunned at the 'one shouldn't start throwing around words like 'smart' for no reason'.
Hagrid is just too adorable sometimes. Like an over sized teddy bear.
Fang was following me closely. I hugged my robe closer when I saw that the sun was setting behind the trees.
We continued to walk; Hagrid was now talking about his pumpkins.
"you know, how some pumpkins gets squeezed bellow the big pumpkins? They are simply too small and can't compete for sunlight. I need to move them in to the sunlight, so there will be en'nuff pumpkins for 'lloween. It's right around the corner…"
I enjoy hearing his voice. I seriously think due to his voice, the dangerous creatures of the forest do not come near us.
"Hagrid, are there really vampires here?"
" 'o course!"
I shuddered.
"Not like those lovey dovey vampires you teenage girls read in 'em romance books. Ha!"
I was speechless.
"Ah! We're close!"
By now the sun has set completely, and it was pitching dark. As we walked on, I noticed some light little grass that glows in the dark.
"Firefly grass." Hagrid explained, "Unicorns loves them. They also have the ability to cure hangovers."
"The unicorns must be very sober then."
Hagrid's laugh boomed through out the forest.
We continued to walk a few minutes, when the Firefly grass become more abundant, that's when Hagrid stopped, pointing forward.
I lift up my hat a little, and saw the most amazing thing.
It was a clearing, about 100 metres away from us. A little calm clearing with a drizzling waterfall, and there are 2 adult unicorns drinking from it. The clearing was filled with various flowers and grass that lit up the whole place, and not far from it, is a cave that reaches behind the small waterfall. There was a baby unicorn eating firefly grass.
It was so beautiful that I forgot to breath.
"Amazing, isn't it?" Hagrid asked.
I want to burst in tears.
"Well? Go on." Hagrid said.
I walked slowly toward the clearing. The adult unicorns looked at me, but didn't spare a second glance.
The baby unicorn bounced towards me… yes, literally bounced, and nuzzled my hand.
I patted it, and carefully looking at the amazing creature, afraid it may all be a dream.
The horn of the baby unicorn is not yet fully grown, so it was a soft texture, and its translucent. I patted the little guy, and fed him some firefly grass.
There was not a single dark hair on his body. Even his hoofs are not dirtied by dirt. The unicorn's hair was so white that it was almost transparent. I stroked its tail, thinking, a couple of hairs, and I am able to turn my own hair back to red.
I don't know what came over me. I grabbed a small strand, and pulled.
Well, both a good thing and a bad thing happened.
The good thing is that, I pulled off the hairs.
The bad thing is that, the baby unicorn was startled. So he kicked me.
I fell over with a "thud"! And to my embarrassment, I fainted.
