Working for Malfoy

Chapter 29: Planning for Future Purposes

"We have a pulse." Someone yelled.

I could hear footsteps and voices shouting commands, but they sounded faint and far away. Like I was underwater.

A light was shone into my eyes and a needle was pressed into the underside of my elbow.

I tried to move my head but was forced to stay put by a nurse's hands. I could feel them putting things into my body. I suddenly felt very drowsy. I was fighting my eyelids to stay open to no avail.

The last thing I seen was the hand of a healer going over my eyes and closing them.

The process was starting again. My eyes opened but everything was a bit more clear this time. Instead of multiple healers, there were only two.

One was writing something down on a piece of parchment while the other, I just noticed, was trying to ask me a few questions.

When I was fully focused on her I understood what she was asking. "What is your name?" She asked.

"Her-Hermione Granger." I replied.

"When is your birthday?" She asked the second question.

"September 19." I replied.

"How old are you?"

"22."

The healer then looked up at her colleague and nodded before looking back at me. "Now, Ms. Granger, I am wanting to keep you for an extra 3 days to make sure everything goes well and we don't have the fear that your wound won't open up again. Ok?"

I just nodded in response.

"Now, before we leave you to rest, is there anyone you would like us to contact?"

"Aviana Malfoy." I said.

"Ok, me and my assistant will leave you to rest, and if there is anything you need, just catch a passing healer and ask for healer Mia or healer Olivia." She pointed at the two of them before smiling and leaving the room.

I sighed and lay back on my pillows. That's when I really started thinking about Narcissa, Teddy, Ginny, Blaise, Aviana, and Draco.

How did they feel when I was put in the hospital and announced dead. What did they think of me?

Ginny was probably really upset when she found out because we have been friends for years. She probably figured I was so sick and tired of everything.

Blaise is probably sad but is putting his feelings aside because of Ginny. They don't know this, but I figured out they have been dating for the past few weeks because of the way they act around each other. They don't call me the smartest witch of the age for nothing.

Teddy won't, or doesn't, understand and is probably so confused that he is most likely lying in bed crying.

Narcissa is probably feeling sorry for everyone and not having anytime to get her feelings sorted out. She is probably trying to keep Teddy calm.

Aviana probably thought it was her fault. I blew up on her when I shouldn't have and I feel so bad because all she wanted to do was help. Just like her brother.

He was, like his sister, just trying to help. He asked if I was ok and I got mad when I shouldn't have. He was giving me the chance to talk and vent but I blew up and tried to kill myself. I feel bad because he has cared for me for almost three and a half years. He healed my wounds and held me while I cried. He was kind and, if I'm being honest, I like him.
