4/6 for today!
Tuesday, August 4, 1998
Tuesday went about the same as Monday, Hermione and Draco spent a long morning in bed, reading and cuddling and talking about silly things. In the afternoon, Ginny and Draco spent a few hours riding their brooms while Hermione watched from the grass. It was wonderful to see him so joyful.
When Theo joined her on the grass, she was pleased to hear that his day had gone easily. It seemed that Slughorn was mostly allowing Draco free reign in the lab and was alright with him spending this week restocking the Hospital Wing. The rest of the evening flew by, both Hermione and Theo trying to funnel as much Magical Energy into Draco as they could.
By the time they were asleep that night, Draco was feeling well enough to go back to work the following day. "I can't miss my lesson," he said, gently kissing Hermione's stomach. "The teacher will know if it isn't me. I can't tell you how much I appreciate what you two have done for me. I feel remarkably better."
This wasn't ideal, but it seemed unavoidable. Theo and Hermione wrapped their arms around Draco and slept with their Magical Channel open so that any lingering weakness would be mitigated.
Thanks for reading! Let me know what you think or if you have any thoughts about what might happen next!
