{sry for being gone, been busy with online school last Dec. I finished with a Cert of Social Media Communication. It was free at the time so I took that, now I have free time to actually work on this story and few others that I'm thinking of.

Anyways, remember that I Don't Own the World of Harry Potter, only J.K.R. I only own the plot and Own Characters. Besides that reminder, now onward with the story!

Not Beta as I dont have one, please do mind my grammar.}

Chapter Two

Waking Up in a Strange Place

Slowly opening his eyes, Harry noticed two things, One; his high fever is gone but he still feels sick. Two; he's not in his bedroom or in his relative's house. A soft moan came from his mouth as he slowly tried to sit up but couldn't, his body is still very weak. Just then there was a light knock on the door as it opened. Harry looked over to his Professor coming in.

"Potter? How are you feeling today?"

The teen gave a low sigh and weakly replied, "Still in pain but I think my fever is gone though."

Severus walked over to the edge of the bed and sat down, he placed back of his hand on the teen's forehead to check his body temp, which felt a bit warmer but not as hot as it was few nights ago.

"Well Mister Potter, you had a very high fever along with something else. Your Aunt had to call me to check on you, for now, you're in my manor recovering. It has been three days since then, your relatives are coming over to visit you in a few hours from now. They're quite worried about you that night."

"Oh? I didn't realized they were that worried. All I remembered was after I helped Aunt Petunia with dinner, I suddenly felt sick. Told her that I was going to laid down for awhile before dinner and that was it." Harry tilted his head for a moment in trying to think but couldn't.

Severus nodded then he called a house elf "Rosy."

Rosy appeared then Severus asked her to bring up a light breakfast for Harry and a cup of water. She disappeared only to returned with a cup of water. "Breakfast in the process of being made." then she was gone again.

Thirty minutes later, Rosy popped back in with a tray and set it down on the nightstand then popped off once again.

Eying the meal, Harry gave a soft moan, his whole body still ached and wondered what had happened and also why is the professor being so nice to him. A sudden cough was made and Harry blinked owlishly at the young Potion Master for a moment.

"Mis- aham, Harry, if I may, you need to eat at least the toast and drink some orange juice, then a minor pain reliever if needed before I let you go back to sleep."

"Umm… right." Slowly, he picked up a toast and started to spread some grape jam over it and taking a bite out of it. Severus watched the teen as he ate the toast and drank some orange juice. Then he held out the small vial that is the minor pain reliever in which Harry reached out and grab to drink. Sighing, the teen slid back down under the covers and fell back to sleep once more.

Few hours later, Harry finds himself in less pain as his bones had stopped breaking for awhile and was actually sitting up in bed with couple of pillows propped up behind him. Severus had called to let Petunia know that Harry is awake and that they can visit him this evening and probably stay for dinner.

Knocking on the door, Severus waited until he heard "Come in." opening the door, he stroll over to the side of the bed and sat on the edge of it.

"Harry, I had called your Aunt and let her know how you are doing and that they are welcome to visit you this evening and also having dinner with us before heading back."

"Alright. Ummm, how long do you think I have to stay here? If you don't mind me asking." as Harry silently hoped that he could go home tomorrow but his hopes was crushed when he saw his professor shaking his head.

"Not tomorrow but at the end of this week. Yet it depends on how your body is acting, I have yet found the cause of your usual pain throughout your body."

"Oh… that sucks. I really do wish what all that pain was about."

"Anyways, you have three hours before your relatives shows up so start get ready for the visit. I'll leave another minor pain reliever here on the end table in case you need it." As he stood up, he quickly added in, "If you need help, just ask Cosmos for assistance." Seeing the perplexed look on the boy's face he sighed, "Yes, there is a flower called Cosmos. I'll show you one later on, until then, I will see you in a few hours from now." With that said, Severus left the room, leaving Harry to ponder about the idea of seeing a cosmos flower.

Three hours later, Harry was cleaned and dressed in his casuals as he made his way downstairs and to the sitting room. Just as he entered,

"Harry!" then a sudden hug from the side. Hugging back, Harry noticed that it was his cousin, Dudley. Taking a step back, he gave a weak smile, "Hi."

"I'm glad that you are doing better, Harry. You had all of us worried that night. When are you be able to come back home?" Petunia asked as she and her husband sat down on the couch while Harry and Dudley sat in the other couch. Severus hasn't shown up again as he was needed elsewhere. He had only appeared to answer the door and lead the family to the sitting room and left.

"The professor says not until end of this week and only if my body hasn't start up again with the pain then I can come home. Professor Snape had said that he hasn't found anything that was causing all the pain that I had; he is being cautious for now."

"Alright then… when you get home, no rough playing or heavy workload until you leave for school again. I know that you like to help with the heavy chores but not this time, alright Harry?" Petunia said as Vernon nodded.

"Wise choice." said a voice from the side, as Severus came walking in. He sat down in a chair near the boys. "I am hoping that whatever pain that you had endure will not show up again but for safety, I prefer that you don't do too much until we are at school again for the term."

The others had nodded in agreement that Harry should not do too much until what was causing him pain that one night was solved. It was near ten when Severus noticed Harry was yawning on the couch, trying to read a chapter out of his Defense textbook. Petunia and her family had ate dinner with them then went home so Dudley can make some changes on his homework before bed. Now, walking over to the teen, he tap his shoulder and once Harry looked up to him,

"It's near bedtime, go brush your teeth and get in bed. I'll see you at breakfast." as he took the book from him and placed a marker on the page before putting it on the end table. Quickly, Harry got up and and left, when he stopped at the doorway, he looked back.

"Ummm… Good night sir." then he left for bed.

"Night Harry." Severus said as he did a quick check around the room then turned the lights off then went to bed himself.
