Sorry for the long wait. Been distracted from writing for awhile so I hope this chapter is long enough. Anyways, this chapter is dedicated to someone I use to RP with. But I don't know if she's reading it or not but I hope she is. This is for you Lost in the Twilight Zone.
Molly rolled over and snuggled into the pillow never wanting to leave her bed. She was dreaming about going to Romanian to visit her Uncle Charlie and learn more about dragons when voices interrupted her dream. "We have to tell her," someone said, Molly stiffened and realized that this wasn't her bed.
"But she's going to freak," another voice said in a worried tone.
"So? She's going to know sooner or later and it's best if we her family should tell her."
"But James, do you know what she's going to do when we do tell her?" someone asked, and Molly's head finally cleared and put names too the voices.
"Yea I do, but I care for her Lucy, I know I pick on her constantly but I do it because that's how I show I care. Even though I go to far, and I need to stop but I know she can take it," James said, Lucy sighed and looked at Molly.
"I just wish she didn't have that stupid boyfriend of hers."
"Actually she doesn't," James stated.
"What? But how?" Lucy said.
"Well I did some digging and I found him and we 'agreed' that he shouldn't see Molly anymore," he said.
"But he put a spell on Molly that if they do break up that we're in trouble," Lucy said.
"Oh don't worry about that. I put the same spell on him and he removed it on Molly," James said feeling really proud of himself. Now if only Molly could see that James does care.
Molly was happy to hear about her relationship being done, she was also a bit jealous that James figured out before she could. But she quickly squashed being jealous and was just glad that she didn't have to worry about her now ex-boyfriend. Maybe now she can worry about bringing her grades up and stop being stressed. But Molly knew better, no matter what the problem will be, she'll always be stressed it can't be helped.
Molly sighed, and snuggled into the blanket not wanting to talk to anyone right now. She'll just have to thank James later. "Do you think she's awake?" Lucy asked.
"I don't think so," James said, just then the door opened and walked in was Madam Watson.
"Out both of you. She's very weak and when she wakes up, I doubt she'll have energy to talk to you. You can come back tomorrow if you like."
James and Lucy mumbled a few things but left all the same. "Miss Weasley, I know you are awake no use trying to hide for me," Madam Watson said, as she stood by her bed. With a sigh, Molly opened her eyes and sat up.
"How long have I been here?" Molly asked, as she took the cup Madam Watson handed to her.
"Just over a day. You haven't been eating all week so you fainted. That you recovered, and those cuts and bruises have healed too."
"Wha-?" Molly said in surprise.
"That charm you used to cover it up was nicely done, but you can't hide anything from me," Madam Watson said, she took the now empty cup from Molly and handed her a plate full of food. "Now eat this, and you can be on you're way. And remember to say thanks to Mr Ovaska. He's the one that brought you here," Madam Watson said and walked away leaving Molly on her own to think.
As Molly sat there eating, she started thinking about all her classes and how she was going to bring up her grades before her dad found out. She also thought about her cousins, more so of James then anyone else. Had James really solved her problem? Or did he just say that so Lucy wouldn't have to worry about it anymore? And why did Cor bring her to the Hospital Wing? The last thing she remembered was walking to the Great Hall, talked to James a bit and nothing. She paused a bit and smacked her forehead. How could she forgotten? After she talked to James Cor started walking with her than she fainted.
Molly finished her food and placed the plate on the bedside table and got out of bed. "Bye Madam Watson! Thanks for everything!" Molly called and made her way to the door.
"If you get any more bruises, made you come and see me. Those charms can only hide them, they need to heal without the hiding charms," Madam called back, Molly smiled cheekily.
"Will do."
Molly left the Wing and went and looked for Cor first before going to talk to James. As she made her way toward the common room to see if he was there, she bumped into Sherman. "Molly," Sherman said in surprised. "I was just on my way to see you," he said, and she raised an eyebrow.
"You were? How'd you know where to find me?" Molly asked, Sherman gave her a half smile.
"Cor told me that you weren't feeling well and brought you too the Wing."
"Awe is Sherman a little worried about little old me?" Molly teased, Sherman shrugged.
"So what if I am? I mean tease you Molly but I do care," Sherman said and Molly looked at him and could tell he was serious.
"Sorry for teasing," she said. "That's alright. So how are you feeling?" Sherman asked.
"Haven't felt this good in days."
"It was that bad?" Sherman asked, Molly shrugged.
"You could say that," she said, and flinched when Sherman went to touch her shoulder trying to comfort her. That didn't go unnoticed to Sherman.
"Molly who hurt you?" Sherman asked softly. "
No one you need to worry about. Have you seen Cor? I need to talk to him," Molly said trying to change the subject. Luckily Sherman let it drop, he nodded.
"Yeah, he's in the library doing homework. What a dork," he said.
"That dork saved my life, besides I'm one to you know."
"Yeah, but you're the cute dork," Sherman said, and watched as Molly blushed.
"Erm thanks? I gotta go now," Molly said and pointed to the direction where the library is.
"Awe Molly no need to hurry I just wanted to talk," he said
. "Well we should talk another time I guess, but I really need to go," Molly said taking a step back.
"Okay, how about going with me to Hogemade next weekend?"
"You mean like a date?" Molly asked raising an eyebrow.
"Yeah, like a date," he said.
"Like how you wanted me to go out with Cor?" Molly asked, Sherman scratched the back of his head.
"That was Jared's idea, this is mine. I do want to go out with you Molls. Just give me a chance," he said, Molly sighed.
"Next weekend? Okay I'll give you an answer before then," Molly said and Sherman nodded.
"Fair enough," he said, and made his way. Molly sighed and turned and started walking to the library.
As she walked, she couldn't help but think about next weekend. Should she say yes or no, she didn't know the answer. She wasn't even sure if she wanted to go, not after everything. She sighed again and entered the library. "Hi Madam Greyson," Molly said as she pasted her desk.
"How are you Ms Weasley? I haven't seen you in awhile," she said, Molly shrugged.
"Couldn't be better and I know. I haven't been myself lately," Molly said.
"Well I'm glad you feel better. Now I expect to see you in here more and working on school work."
"Don't worry Madam Greyson, I will," Molly said and Madam Greyson nodded and left Molly to find who she was looking for. Molly walked around the library until she saw Cor in a back corner concentrated on something. Molly walked up to him and sat down. "Is this seat taken?" Molly asked and Cor jumped slightly and looked up.
"Now it is," he said smiling.
"Thanks," Molly said and continued when Cor gave her a confused look. "For the other day. You know, when I fainted and you brought me to the Hospital," she said.
"Oh, its no problem. You weren't feeling well, I figure Madam Watson would be better bringing you back to health then me," Cor said with a shrug going back to his homework.
"No big deal." Molly touched Cor's hand and he looked up surprised. "Cor, it is a big deal. I know we kinda just met, but believe me when I say I'm really grateful."
Cor smiled a bit and nodded. "Okay, then it's not a big deal," he said and Molly nodded, she let go of his hand and leaned on her arms on the table looking at what Cor's homework.
"Whatcha working on?" she asked.
"Potions, Transfiguration assignments," he said and smiled when Molly groaned.
"How recent did they assign them?" she asked.
"Monday, and they're both due tomorrow," he said, Molly groaned again.
"I don't suppose they would let me off and give me more time?"
"I don't think so. Professor Grint said no excuses, and Professor Collins threatened if one or more people are going to hand in their paper late, he was going to give the whole class another assignment. A worse one too," Cor said, Molly groaned and hit her head off the table.
"I'm going to fail and fail some more, and I'm going to have to repeat this year over again and never live my dream," Molly mumbled seeing no upside to this. "Are there anymore assignments in other classes?"
Cor shook his head. "Just usual homework," he said looking at her with a frown. He put his hand between the table and Molly's head, so the next time her forehead hit the table she hit his hand instead. "You're going to get a headache if you keep doing that?" Cor said.
"I'm going to get a headache tonight anyways. So I might as well get it now," she muttered. "Between everything, I don't think I can bring up my grades," she said, and sat up only to slump in her chair.
"Why?" Cor asked, curious.
"I don't want to talk about it," she said.
"Okay," he said, and looked down at his homework. As he looked at it, he got an idea. "Hey, how about I can help you with your classes?" he said, and Molly looked at him.
"Like tutoring?" she asked he nodded.
"Yeah, we are in the same classes anyways. I need help and you need help. We can help each other out," he said, and Molly thought over the idea.
"Okay, let's do it then," she said, and he smiled.
"Good, we can start tonight."
"Uh, what do you mean?" Molly asked as she watched Cor gather his books and paper and quills and stuffed them in his bag.
"Since we have two things due tomorrow, and we all know no one what's another assignment in Potions class. So I figure we can start with those two. Come on, let's go," he said.
"Where are we going?" Molly asked, following out of the library. Cor gave her a look that says, 'are you dumb'?
"We are going to the Hufflepuff common room. I mean, all your stuff are there and it's more comfortable then the library chairs."
"Right," she said, and they continued walking. When they entered the common room they found that it was completely empty. They found a table after Molly went and grabbed her books. So they spent the night doing homework, talking and sometimes joking.
When morning came, Cor found himself with something leaning on him. When he looked, he blushed slightly seeing Molly sleeping on his shoulder. He didn't want to move, but he knew that if they didn't wake up they would be late for class. So with a sigh, sat up slowly and gently shook Molly awake. "Molly come on. Time to wake up," he said softly.
"5 more minutes," she mumbled causing Cor to chuckle slightly.
"Molly, if you don't get up you're going to be late for class."
Molly jumped up with no notice and hit Cor on his chin with her head. "Ow," Cor groaned rubbing his chin.
"I'm so sorry!" Molly exclaimed.
"Don't worry about it," he said.
"Let me take a look," she said removing his hand and looked at his chin. "It's red but it'll go away in no time," she said and smiled sheepishly.
"Thanks you make a great nurse," he said. Molly looked down blushing and sighed.
"Sorry for falling asleep last night. I couldn't help it," she said, Cor nodded.
"That's fine, we got done almost everything. Plus, I fell asleep right after you so no big deal."
Molly nodded and got up, and grabbed her things, Cor did the same. "We should get ready I guess," Cor said.
"Yeah, I missed too much to skip another day," Molly said and paused slightly.
"Do you still want to help me with my homework" Molly asked. Cor looked at her surprised.
"Of course I do. I don't want to see you fail," he said, Molly nodded.
"Okay, meet me at the library after our last class?" she said, Cor nodded.
"Okay see you later," Molly said and made her way to her room to get ready for the day, Cor did the same.
