Haylie Elizabeth Potter

Chapter 9

*Fred's POV*  

I woke up in the hospital wing. My throat hurt and my shoulder ached. I sat up slowly and looked around to see Madam Pomfrey rushing around the empty beds then I saw George standing over the bed not far away from mine. He was stroking someone's hair. He looked over at me and gave me a small smile "you just missed her bro. She woke up and tried to get to you. I don't think she will be trying that again." 

"What do you mean? What happened?" I asked feeling a bit light headed and my voice coming out softer than it usually does.  

"She fell. No don't worry I didn't let her hit the ground. Madam Pomfrey warned that if she tried to sit up or stand up that she would get extremely dizzy because it hasn't been very long since she hit her head. She wanted to see you. She was very concerned." He added on the end.  

Madam Pomfrey came over seeing that I was awake. She checked my wrist and shoulder telling me that they were all healed but that my shoulder would ache for the next 24 hours or so. She took a look at my neck and clicked her tongue. Then said "I can't rid you of those marks but I can take away the uncomfortable feeling and make the marks fade." I nodded and she gave me a potion. I downed it and my throat almost instantly felt better.  

I was released an hour later with her telling me to come and check in with her later that night. I walked out with George. I knew that Haylie wouldn't be awake for another 12 hours at least. 

"What time is it?" I asked George.  

"It's 3 in the after noon." He said. I stared at him in shock."she gave you a really strong potion." He explained. I nodded as we walked on down the hall. He handed me my homework and we headed off to the library to complete it since I had missed every class so far that day. 

By the time I was even close to being done it was time for dinner. Then there was a late night Quidditch practice. I was allowed to play (I had checked before I left the hospital wing). Oliver wood, a 4th year keeper and in his first year as captin, came up to George and I. "How's Haylie?" He asked 

I looked to George since I didn't know anything but what he had told me. "She is pretty out of it." He admitted "She tried to stand up when she woke up and collapsed on the spot. She is sleeping again and won't be cleared to play till after the holiday." 

Wood nodded then said "we have one practice when we get back from the holidays then we play Hufflepuff." We both nodded. We had all been planning on practicing over the holidays but now Haylie was out of the question. 

Charlie walked over to us. He was in his 7th year and was always busy but he was always at every quid itch practice. "How's Haylie? sorry I haven't been able to come see her. I've been a bit- um- busy." He admitted.  

"She can't play till after the holidays but she will be alright. What happened to your eye?" I asked looking at my brother's slightly purple eye.  

"It happened last night." He said shrugging it off. Then he ran off to talk to Wood. 

I turned to George and saw shock written all over his face. "What?" I asked him. 

"I told Charlie what happened to you last night. Right after that he ran off without saying a word. My guess would be that if we saw Tammer and his shadows right now they would be in way worse shape than him." I nodded fallowing my older brother with my eyes. I then mounted my broom and took to the sky.
