Chapter 9: Lily's Apology.
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN HARRY POTTER
Lily sat in the waiting room, it had been three hours and no news. The only sounds that could be heard were the screams coming from her cousin's room. Lily wiped the tears from her eyes when the healer walked out. Her uncles and father immediately stood up. "Theyre going to be okay. Rose was experiencing an anxiety attack and it caused some stress on the child as well, so I am ordering not bed rest but as much reduced stress as possible. If she is up to it she can return to school in the day and come home at night if she chooses, however if she is up to it as well she can return to school, as long as she goes to the hospital wing for a rest in between classes and has a small check up with the mediwitch." He told them. Sighs of relief filled the room.
"And , she's asking for you." He said opening the door. Slowly Lily entered the room. Scorpius was sitting in the chair next to Rose's bed. Hermione and Ron were speaking quietly in the corner along with the Malfoys. "Hey Lils." Rose said softly. Lily looked at her cousin. "Rosie, I'm sorry.I'm sorry for everything. Everything I said." Lily said starting to cry. "Lily, I'm not dead. It was nothing don't worry about it. Its okay. I knew you were. I knew you didn't mean the things you said. You were upset. I get it." Rose said sitting up a little more. "Lily, we have been close since we were little. We've been sharing secrets since you could talk. I could never hate you." Rose added. Scorpius sat and listened. Lily walked over to Rose and hugged her.
Hermione looked over and smiled. "Lily? I know Rose isn't going to tell anyone if something is wrong. So I'm going to need you to tell me if anyting happens. Okay?" Lily nodded pulling away from Rose. "Of course Aunt Mione." She said. Rose rolled her eyes. "Really mum?" she said putting her hands on her face. "Mum, I'm fine. Honestly" Rose said. Hermione looked at her as Rose winced slightly. "Love, I know that you want so much to go back but I am not so sure that's a good idea. Honey, right now you need rest, you need to keep your self from stressing out." She said sitting on her bed. Scorpius looked into Rose's eyes, "Sweetie, your mum's right. Maybe you should just stay here. I will owl you every day and send you your school work. We can floo every night." He said. Lily nodded, "And I can ask to come see you every day during free period. Scorpius too." She said. Rose sighed. "Fine, I won't go. But I want to come to the Quidditch games." She said. "I'm fine with that. But your father and I will come with you." Hermione said.
Rose looked up as the door opened. Ron walked out with Draco and Astoria to tell everyone what was happening. "Okay Mum." Rose said nodding. "Can we go home soon?" she asked. Hermione nodded. "As soon as the healer says it's okay. Not too much longer love." Hermione said kissing her forehead. Rose sighed she hated hospitals. She hated needles; she hated people constantly asking how she was doing. Over all, she just really wanted to go home.
A/N:
I know this is short. But I wasn't sure about this chapter at all. Next chapter we see Rose, Scorpius, and Lily go back to school to talk about Rose's schooling.
