Hannah had walked out to the body of water on the east side of Skyward School of Practical Sorcery for the second meeting of Water Club where she found their leader Wanda, as well as Crystal, Fiona, and Amanda waiting for her.

"So, I guess we're just waiting for Justin then?" asked Hannah.

"Justin will not be joining us today because he is in the hospital wing," replied Wanda.

"How is he then?" asked Hannah seriously.

"Improving, but lonely." answered Wanda, "While he gets along great with people in general, he doesn't have any close friends. His parents are muggles and cannot penetrate this school. So, well..."

"We should cancel this Water Club Meeting and visit him," said Hannah in a crystal clear voice, "One of the purposes of mom's club mandate was to afford all students at Skyward School of Practical Sorcery the opportunity to make friends and good friends at that."

Amanda, Crystal, and Fiona instantly realized that Hannah was right.

"Hannah's right," piped up Amanda fiercely, "I don't care what our leader says, I'm going to visit Justin.'

'That makes three of us, " added Crystal, "Justin needs support right now."

"Make it four," interjected Fiona, "He's one of us now."

"I'll come too then," said Wanda softly.

Next nanosecond, Wanda, Hannah, Crystal, Fiona, and Amanda all walked to the hospital wing and knocked on the door.

Madam Pomfrey, another carryover from Hogwarts, opened the door at once.

"We are here to visit Justin Finch Fletchley," declared Hannah instantly.

"Mr. Finch Fletchley is recovering from severe burns from a Potions accident this morning," insisted Madam Pomfrey, "He needs rest and peace and quiet. Out OUT!"

Hannah didn't budge.

"Mom would want us to support our friend and clubmate, " exclaimed Hannah firmly.

Madam Pomfrey replied, "I'll go talk with the Headmistress and make her understand that this boy needs peace and quiet."

"No, he doesn't," called out Heather, who happened to be passing by the hospital wing at the time, '"He is lonely and needs company and support. Right now, the only company he has is the pain from his burns and his miserable thoughts about how he got them. I, Skyward School of Practical Sorcery Headmistress Heather Abbott, do hereby give Wanda Wet, Hannah Abbott, Crystal Current, Fiona Float, and Amanda Aqua permission to visit Justin Finch Fletchley."

Madam Pomfrey sighed in defeat. After All, Heather did outrank her.

"Well, " said Madam Pomfrey disapprovingly, "I'll have to let them in."

Heather stood by, making sure she did.

Wanda, Hannah, Amanda, Fiona, and Crystal all saw Justin in the leftmost bed, with sporadic Burn Healing Paste on various parts of his arms and face, which looked sad.

Or it looked sad until he saw Wanda, Hannah, Amanda, Crystal, and Fiona approaching him. Then it suddenly burst into a wide smile.

"Wanda, Hannah, Amanda, Crystal, and Fiona, it's great to see you all," piped up Justin happily.

"It was Hannah's idea," acknowledged Wanda honestly, "When I met the members of the Water Club who showed up for our second meeting today, I told them you would not be joining us because you were in the hospital wing, Hannah instantly suggested that we come and visit you."

"Thanks, Hannah, " smiled Justin.

"To be fair," added Hannah, "The others were quick to agree to it."

Justin just beamed at them all.

"My parents can't visit me here because they are muggles and I don't have close friends," said Justin matter of factly, "But your company is lifting my spirits."

""That's why I wanted us to come," said Hannah clearly, "One of the purposes of mom's club mandate was to provide students with the opportunity to make friends. Well, in a case like this, this exactly a time when we should come and support our clubmate."

"I suffered an accident at the end of Potions this morning, Hannah, I think you had already left the class and didn't see this, but I was the victim of a cauldron explosion and that's how I got burned and why I'm here."

"How did this cauldron explode?" asked Wanda.

"A careless second year by the name of Zacharias Smith left the heat on his cauldron on after finishing his potion and also failed to vanish the remnants of his work after he'd given Professor Ivanoff his Potion. The cauldron suddenly exploded as I passed his desk, " explained Justin.

"Zacharias Smith is suspended from this school pending a further investigation into this incident in question, " said Heather wearily, "I'm not sure how much of this was an accident, how much was negligence, or whether any intent was involved. I will say that the few times I've met him in person, Zacharias has seemed unfriendly to me."

"There's no denying that, " said Hannah bluntly, "I've never seen him in any ways other than cold and arrogant."

"Would you be willing to stay a little longer?" Justin asked Wanda, Hannah, Amanda, Fiona, and Crystal hopefully.

"Yes," they all replied at once.

"Thanks," said Justin gratefully.

For the next few hours, Wanda, Hannah, Amanda, Crystal, and Fiona just talked about whatever subject Justin wanted to talk about while keeping him company as Heather looked on in the distance, making sure that Madam Pomfrey wouldn't kick them out.

When they finally were getting ready to leave, Justin said sincerely, "Thank you for coming to visit me. I'll be here a few more days while my burns heal but your visit has brightened my day exponentially! I'll say this: Regardless of what happens with what we do in Water Club going forward, I know I'm in the right club. To see, hear, and feel your friendship and support is making my insides glow hotter than the interior of the sun."

"This is part of what my club mandate was about," interjected Heather, "To see this act this early is inspirational to me."

Justin just smiled.
