˖*. UNEXPECTED OUTCOME.*˖
Diane woke up to the sound of hushed voices and carts rolling by. She could feel soft fabric laying underneath her aching back and a hard cast encasing her left shoulder and part of her upper arm.
As she opened her eyes and let them adjust to the dimmed lights of the hospital wing, she saw her friends sitting beside her.
Roxanne's head was resting on Lloyd's shoulder as he gently stroked her hair, her eyes puffy and cheeks wet with tears.
Saoirse looked equally miserable and let out a soft sob as she saw Diane had awakened. She immediately put her hand on Diane's forehead, brushing some of her dark hair away from her eyes. 'How are you feeling?'
'Dizzy.' She muttered, her mouth felt dry and her lips chapped. 'Where's Lysander?'
Saoirse gulped and glanced at the others. 'They've taken him to the ministry.'
'What happened after I...' Diane pleadingly looked up at her friends.
'Lorcan managed to alert the headmistress and she immediately sent Lupin and Patil to restrain him. They stunned him and brought him to the ministry, for questioning.' Lloyd explained, his voice sounded so glum that Diane feared his cheery attitude might never return.
'Why?' Diane whispered, feeling fresh tears escape her eyes.
'We-we don't know.' Roxanne said. 'None of us understand.'
'He threatened to kill you, Roxanne. I can't even imagine what he meant to do to Saoirse.' Diane thought back to his emotionless eyes, his threatening voice. 'I thought he was my best friend.' She whispered, more to herself.
They sat in silence for a while, no words seemed to fit the situation they were currently in. The boy they thought was their best friend, their family, had been ready to kill or seriously harm them without a second doubt.
'Where's Lorcan?' Diane asked. She couldn't imagine the heartbreak he must be feeling. This was his closest friend, his other half.
'He's home. McGonagall brought him there right after Lysander'd been seized. His dad is at the ministry, but Luna's still too weak to travel and Lorcan was too shaken up.' Lloyd explained.
'What about the O.W.L.s?' Diane asked.
'Typical of you to think of exams right after being attacked.' Roxanne softly smiled through the tears. 'We can still take them, though McGonagall said we could take them during summer if we wanted.'
Diane softly shook her head, already feeling a headache coming on. 'My right arm's fine, I can start tomorrow.'
The others chuckled softly. 'Ever the star pupil.' Joked Lloyd.
