CHAPTER FOURTEEN


'She looks...peaceful.' Said Angelina hesitantly.

'You talk as if she is dead.' Spoke Fred.

'Shh ! You'll wake her up.' Shushed Cedric.

A silence of three second went by, until Fred spoke again.

'She's beautiful when she's not talking or bossing others around.' He said.

A second silence fell and you noted your two best friends didn't object. That's when you chose to flutter your eyes open, deeply offended by this disloyalty.

You were not bossy, merely authoritative, just... born to lead others.

You lazily winced for your head hurt. Your sudden consciousness had the effect of agitating the little group. They quickly squeezed up closer to you — as if they were not, already, close enough. And they were looking at you as if you were some sort of foreign creature.When you grew aware of the three faces inches away from yours, you almost had a heart attack.

You aimed to scream but nothing came out of your throat except a little gasp.

'OUT OF THE WAY YOU ALL !' Shouted the voice of Madam Pomfrey who walked in the room instantly. 'Miss Y/l/n needs rest and air, not to be snogged by the three of you !'

Angelina and Cedric quickly moved backwards but Fred's lips curled up in a smile. He shot you a hot look.

'I bet you don't mind me snogging you pumpkin. Time for you to meet the french side of my fam-OUCH'

Your knee had been able to respond to your brain and had nestled itself in Fred's side. Couldn't he be serious for a second ? At least could he let you properly recover your composure before teasing you.

Cedric pushed him back, the boys stared each other like wolves before Madam Pomfrey shooed them away. She dropped gently in a little clatter, a plate on your bedside table.

'Eat.' And she pointed at the piece of cake. 'Sugar will do you the greatest good, believe me. Such brave action takes a lot of energy.' Explained the woman very quickly.

Madam Pomfrey always seemed in a hurry, you thought. As she strolled away, Angelina sat next to you, hugging your neck carefully, her warmth reassuring you. But you felt okay. Ready to stand up and just leave, because you still had your O.W.Ls to prepare.

Cedric handed you the plate as Angelina pushed you back on the bed when you tried to stand up.

'Why do I feel like you just want to go studying.' Said Cedric. You groaned and ate reluctantly yet silently as your friends explained the end of the match that you had completely forgot had happened. Yes, you were at the game before, Gryffindor was leading. Suddenly an argument exploded, between the two boys. they eventually bickered on the winner-team. You could hear in Cedric's voice and embellished choice of words that he was proud to have won. But it only made Fred more bitter, he kept throwing little sarcastic comments to your best friend, all grumpy. Now they were shouting, their voices buzzed in your head, maybe you weren't that recovered yet.

Angelina was also pissed but she, at least, quickly changed the subject to Harry and you, saying she had missed your act of bravery. Apparently the entire school had already heard about it, some students claimed to have seen you throw the spell. But due to the storm, some stories appeared very different from others. But you had not time to waste on that matter because it felt like a thunder hit you hard suddenly : what about Harry ? You looked all around, panicked, swallowing hardly your last bit of cake. The beds were all empty.
