You were shaking really bad the next day during your potion N.E.W.T. The day before, when McGonagall had taken you to Dumbledore's office you had gotten some terrible news about you grandmother.
Apparently she had fallen ill again, but this time it was much worse. It was so bad that she had been transferred to St Mungo's, where they could keep a closer eye on her until you finished the year.
It wasn't the fact that she had been sent there that scared you the most, it was more the fact that no one seemed to know what was wrong with her, and now you just could not seem to think about anything else. Heck, you didn't even know which potion you were making anymore. You looked at the ingredients you had cut, but couldn't recognise what they were, and before you knew it, the potion you were trying to make had exploded.
Everything after that was just a blur.
Somehow you had gotten to the hospital wing, how, you couldn't remember, but either way it didn't matter. You sat in one of the beds as Pomfrey herself was applying something you didn't know what was to your hands and arms. You had gotten a few burn marks, but it wasn't anything that wouldn't heal in time. Pomfrey had just wrapped up the last one and you were free to go, but you couldn't get yourself to leave just yet. Staring down at your hands, you saw that they were still shaking, and wondered how you could let it get like this.
Months of studying just thrown down the stairs because you couldn't handle some bad news. You felt like crying, but nothing came. What made it even worse was that you had to take your Charms N.E.W.T in about an hour, which you absolutely did not feel prepared for anymore.
*****
You did manage to collect your thoughts in the end, and had just finished the charms N.E.W.T. Would you get an O? Most certainly not, but you did feel like you'd at least get an E, which in all honestly isn't that bad. You exhaled loudly as you finally reached the common room, gaining the attention of those who were there, but they all looked away again, probably thinking you sighed because of the N.E.W.T.s. You walked up to your dorm, put down your bag and stood there for a bit as you started at your bandages. It didn't hurt that bad anymore, but it did sting. You'd have to get them changed before the night as they had gotten dirty, and with that thought in mind you walked back down to the common room and went on your way to the hospital wing.
Though you never got that far.
It turned out that Charlie himself had returned to the common room, and when he saw you, he had run up to you and pulled you into a side hug. You looked at him and saw a big smile across his face, but it faded soon after.
"What happened to you?" He asked as he went to stand in front of you and took a hold of your hands to examine them.
"I-I don't know... I..." You didn't know what to say to him and just stood there.
"Come here." Charlie said as he lead you out of the common room and away from the peering eyes of your fellow Gryffindors. You didn't know where he took you, but didn't care either way, anything to get your mind on other things.
*****
It turned out he lead you to the hospital wing, probably having seen the condition of your bandages, which was fine by you since that was where you planned on going anyway.
When you arrived, Pomfrey took you in right away and quickly changed the bandages, which let Charlie see the blemishes and burn marks on your arms since he had been allowed to stay in the wing together with you, though he didn't say anything, probably out of fear that Pomfrey would throw him out.
It didn't take long before you could leave again and now you were wandering around the castle.
"How did you get those burn marks?" Was the first thing Charlie asked once you were far enough away from the hospital wing.
