Victoire woke to muffled voices all around her. She squinted her eyes a couple of times, trying to take in the scene. All Vic could make out was family members crowded around her, in a tiny room that looked to be in St. Mungos. She tried to sit up, but failed, in doing so she let out a sigh. Heads turned towards her. Teddy rushed over to her bedside.
"Vic!" he shouted, causing Victoire to flinch at the noise. His hair turned a florescent shade of red, meaning he was embarrassed. Teddy quickly changed his hair back to electric blue, after getting a laugh out of Vic. The feeble noise was enough to put a smile on the boy's face. Teddy stepped back, and Fleur swooped in.
"Cherie! Thank goodness you're okay! The healers were worried that you wouldn't wake up for another week! Oh Bill come look at her, she's okay!" Fleur said with the affection of a mother. Bill came up and put his arm around his hysterical wife, attempting to calm her down.
Victoire spoke up, "What happened? And why does my arm hurt so bad? Is quidditch camp over? Who won?" Everybody looked at each other in the room, silently having a debate over who was going to tell Victoire everything that had happened. A nurse entered the room, after hearing the noise from the hallway.
"What is going on here?" she said with a frown, which turned to a smile after she saw the awake Victoire. "Ah, she's awake! Well Miss Weasley, how do you feel?" Victoire shrugged, not feeling as up to par as she would've liked. "That's understandable, after everything that you went through. Are you hungry, you haven't eaten in a while?" Victoire nodded, and the nurse left in search of food.
A silence filled the room. From the shadows, Ginny came forward, offering information. "You remember going to quidditch camp, right?" Vic nodded, "Well, your team made it the championship game. You caught the snitch, but another girl at the camp hit you in the arm, which broke in a couple of places. You couldn't keep control of your broom, so you fell and hit your head pretty hard. You had a serious concussion, and have been in St. Mungos since. This happened two weeks ago. I'm so sorry this is all my fault. If I hadn't recommended quidditch camp, none of this would've happened," Ginny started to shake a bit, trying hard not to cry. Harry hurried over, and put his arm around her. The nurse walked back into the room.
"This is what I could find for now, it is the middle of the night. But I promise, tomorrow we will have better food. Could I please speak with Mr. and Mrs. Weasley?" she said. A couple of people turned their heads at the mention of Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, but Bill and Fleur were the ones to walk out into the hallway with the nurse.
"When can we take her home?" Fleur asked in a hushed tone. The nurse thought for a moment. "It all depends Mrs. Weasley. She seems to be doing well, but only time will tell if there are any permanent repercussions. I will have to talk with a healer about having her discharged, but don't worry, she'll be home to you as soon as possible." Bill spoke up, "When will that be? Vic is going to be starting Hogwarts soon, we can't have her miss that. She wants to play on her house team." The nurse pursed her lips, "Mr. Weasley, I'm afraid that the healers won't exactly jump at the idea that Victoire wishes to continue her quidditch career. She's going to need physical therapy for her wrist, and quite frankly, that could a couple of months. I know you want her to play, but that might not be happening for sometime."
Bill furrowed his brow. It had always been his dream to have his daughter play for the Gryffindor team as a first year. Now it looked like that was not going to happen. Fleur saw that her husband was miserable, and put her arm around him. Bill put his own arm around his wife, and the couple walked back into the hospital room.
Ginny had calmed down, and was now talking with her mother, Molly Weasley. Victoire and Teddy were laughing together, picking at the hospital food. Bill and Fleur walked towards Victoire, sad looks on their faces. Vic immediately frowned too, wondering why they were showing signs of discontent. Teddy scampered into the arms of Harry, who lifted him up and out of the room. Molly said something about checking on Arthur, who was babysitting Domi, Louis, James and Albus. Ginny gave Vic a fleeting look of sorrow, and then followed the rest of the family out of the room. The door shut with a bang.
Fleur sat perched on the edge of Vic's bed, Bill behind her, with his hands on her shoulders. Vic starting crying, not even knowing why, just crying. Bill gathered her into a hug, picking her up into his strong arms. Fleur started to cry as well. Bill sat in a chair with Victoire in his arms, comforting his oldest child. Once she calmed down, Bill started to speak, Fleur braiding Vic's silvery blond hair.
"Vic, once we talk to a healer, we will know for sure when we can bring you home. Hopefully it will be in time for Hogwarts. Even if it is, they won't allow to play on the quidditch team until your arm and head are fully healed. If it isn't then I'm sure we can talk to Professor McGonagall about having you start mid-semester. Your going to have to go through physical therapy for all of your injuries, which might take a while. I know your disappointed, but trust us, we know that you will be okay, and definitely make the team next year."
Hearing this news just made Victoire start to cry again, even harder than before. Bill sat in the chair, rocking her until she cried herself to sleep. Carefully, Bill stood up and placed Victoire back on the bed, and pulled the covers up around her. Fleur gave her kiss on the forehead, looking down at the bruised face of her eldest daughter. Bill took Fleur's hand, and they apparated back to Shell Cottage.
