It was two and a half months later and Bella was sitting at work as the phone started ringing. She picked it up, "Hello?" "Bella, it's Leah, there's someone waiting for you down in reception," "I'll come down, who is it?" "He said under the name Malfoy." "Okay." Bella got up, getting her black blazer, pulling it on, walking downstairs off her office and to the reception, opening the door "Dad." "Bella." "What's wrong?" "Harry's in hospital." "Wait what? What happened?!" She asked, concern drawn in her voice "Dad, tell me what's happened. That's my husband, dad!" "I know, sweetheart, but don't panic. I know it'll trigger you." "Dad, I need to know what he did." Bella unlocked the downstairs meeting room, opening the door, walking in and closing the door.
She sat down "Dad, what ever has happened to my husband, I need to know. We got married last month and we promised we'd never lie to each other or hide anything." "Okay, if I tell you this, don't get upset please." "I won't be, I've been clean for two and a half months." "Okay, This morning after you left, he tried to overdose and take his life away." "Oh shit, is he okay?" "Not really, he's a mess, he doesn't want to worry you." "Dad, can I call him please?" Lucius got his phone out, and handed it to his daughter. Bella got his phone unlocked and called Harry. She waited for him to answer "Hello?" "Baby, it's me." "Bella. I'm sorry." "No, what happened?" "Hate comments." "Who's told you to kill yourself?" "Connor." "The one who bullied when you were 14, it has been 7 years." "He found my work, he wants you to feel the pain I felt." "Harry, enough of this talk, did you hurt yourself?" "No." "Okay, it's good you've told me this baby, do you want me to come to the hospital?" "No, please don't come." Harry started crying, "Okay, I won't, I'll finish my shift and then come?" "Please don't, just go home, and I'll be home tomorrow afternoon." "Alright, I'll go home at 5." "Okay." "I love you, Harry." "I love you too." The two hung up.
Bella handed the phone back to Lucius "What did he say?" "He doesn't want me to see him, but I have to, my lunch is in 30 minutes, I will go and see him. I love him and I need to make sure he's okay." "I know, darling. Did he hurt himself?" "No, just overdose." "Okay, I see, go down there on your lunch and see him." "I will." Bella walked back inside and upstairs again. Bella closed the door and saw a message from Harry 'I love you..' She saw on her phone as she unlocked it and called Narcissa. Narcissa didn't pick up but then called her back "Darling, what's wrong?" "Are you with Harry?" "I am, he's covering his face at the moment." "Okay, mum. Is he okay?" "He's a bit scared." "Put him on the phone please." Bella heard shuffling and heard Harry talking "Bella?" "Hey, Mon trésor," "My mum told me you're a bit scared, I'm going to come and see you on my lunch break. I'm not far from the hospital." "Okay. Can you observe me?" "I'll try and ask since I work with CAMHS. I've been working with Royal Sussex county." "Okay." Harry stayed on the phone with Bella.
It was an hour and a half later and Bella was walking to Harry's room, knocking on the door, opening the door, walking over to his bed after closing the door "I am so sorry I'm late, I had an 17 year old come in who got bullied and got sent from her school to come here and see me, but I quickly ate and let her in." "Is she worse?" "No, you're far worse than she is." "Okay." Harry nodded, looking at Harry "Did you eat lunch?" "Yes I did. Your dad came and got me McDonald's." "I'm sorry, where's mine?" Harry laughed "In my tummy, I had that disgusting charcoal drink when you overdose." "Oh lovely." Harry looked at Bella "I just came for a little chat since I was alerted to come as quick as possible. But we will unfortunately need to move you into another room to monitor you." "Okay. Will you come?" "I'll come as I'm your CAMHS worker." "Okay." Bella walked out of the room "Ready to move him?" "Yes." Bella walked into the room "Harry, are you ready to be moved?" "Yeah." Harry got up with Bella.
Bella walked to the inpatient ward with Harry, and opened the door "You'll either stay in here for a few days to a few months, but the bad thing, I will have to keep a close eye on you, even when you're in the shower basically 1:1." "What's 1:1?" "1:1 is basically where your worker has to be with you, even though your in the bathroom, we will sit right outside while you shower or go the toilet." "Great." "I'm sorry." "Don't apologise, you didn't feel okay." He nodded, as he sat on the chair by the bed.
It was the next morning and Bella was walking into the hospital, knocking on Harry's door, opening it and Harry rolled over, opening an eye, looking at her "Good morning." "Good morning, how was your first night?" "Hated it, I don't like it." "I know," Harry yawned, stretching his arms up in the air "How did you sleep?" "Kept tossing and turning but I fell asleep around 11pm but I kept hearing screaming from next door. How was it sleeping on your own?" "Weird, Mum and dad are right now staying over, and mum's sleeping in our bedroom and I slept with her on your pillows wearing your hoodie as it was comfy and warm." "Okay." Harry looked at Bella, "So today's my day off, so I am allowed to sit in here with you and keep you distracted. So I've brought a colouring book and felt tip pens, books, your phone which I charged last night, and I've got breakfast." "No you haven't, what have you got?" "I stopped by costa in the drive thru and got you Black Americano and I got myself a flat white, and we can just sit here and talk." Harry smiled, sitting up, crossing his legs.
Bella got the coffee cup out and put it on the table. She got the food out, putting it on the table. Harry brought the table over, and pushed his pillows up. One of the doctors came in, and walked over to Harry "Bella, I thought you were on shift today?" "No, I'm off today, but I'm here for Harry." "Okay. A 21 year old just came in with the police, but I know you're taking care of Harry." "Yeah." Bella looked at Harry who took a sip from his coffee "Is it okay?" "It's perfect." Harry looked at Bella, and sat closer to her, and placed his head on her shoulder. Harry got up, "You okay?" "Need the toilet." "Alright, I'll be right here." Harry nodded, walking in the bathroom.
When he came back from the toilet, he sat on the bed "My bed's so small, I can't even go home." "Harry, listen to me, I'm going to let you eat, I'm going to quickly talk to someone, okay?" He nodded. Bella got up, walking out of his room. She closed the door, walking up to the front desk "Bella, how can I help?" "Is it possible to let Harry come home?" "Will you be looking after him?" "Yes." "Will you keep an eye on him?" "Of course." "Alright, go and ask him to get dressed, and we'll get him discharged from the psych ward." "Okay, thank you." Bella walked back into Harry's room, closing the door, walking up to him with a smile.
Harry looked at her and tilted his head, "What?" "Go and get yourself dressed, and you can eat after." "Why?" "I can take you somewhere." "Okay." Harry got up, getting himself dressed into a comfortable pair of white jeans and a beige crane and floral top. He got himself dressed, and got his bag. Bella put everything away, and one of the doctors came back in while Bella was sorting Harry's hair out. Bella got a pen out of her pocket, and handed it to Harry. Harry looked at them "Is this what I think this is?" "Go and sign it." Harry signed them, and looked at Bella, getting up. Bella sorted the bed out. Harry walked up to the door. Harry held out his hand as Bella took it, their wedding bands shining in the light.
When they got home, Bella unlocked the front door, opening the door as Harry walked in the house. Narcissa came in the hallway "Since when were you discharged?" "The doctors discharged me from the psych ward." "Ah okay, is she going to take care of you so you don't do nothing stupid?" "I know she will." Bella walked upstairs and Harry followed. Harry put his bag down, and hung his jacket up. Harry walked up to the bed, laying on the bed, on his back with a huge smile on his face "This is much better." "Good, was the bed not good?" "It was really uncomfortable." Bella got on the bed with Harry. Harry got up on the bed, lying against his pillows. Bella cuddled into his chest "This is much better." "It is." Harry leaned down and placed a kiss to Bella's forehead.
2 hours later, Bella looked up at Harry after they had made love recently "We just had sex, and I am so sweaty." "Don't worry, we can cuddle in our sweat." "Eww." Bella cuddled into Harry's chest and the brunette kissed her temple, hoping they would make more memories together with less hospital trips and hoping these memories were golden like they've done already together.
