I awoke, unsure of where I was, with a banging headache. Around me, all I could see was white. White walls, white beds. I quickly came to the realisation that I was in the hospital wing. Clearly Draco's hex had made me unconscious though I wasn't sure how long I'd been in that state. I wanted to call someone to ask them the time but it was out of the question as I could barely sit up. Madam Pomfrey must have seen my failed attempts to move as she came out of her office and sat down on the chair next to my bed. I hadn't even noticed earlier but there were cards, gifts and a balloon scattered on the table next to me.

"Granger! Everyone's been so worried about you!" The nurse exclaimed

"H-h-how long have I been unconscious?" I said trying to speak though the pain.

"A week and a half" came the answer. It seems really strange thinking that Malfoy has managed to pretty much erase a about ten days of my life, never mind all the classes I've missed out on all because of that little bastard!

"How are you feeling?" asked madam Pomfrey

"My whole body is in pain especially my head. Has Draco been punished?"

"Draco? Why would he be punished? He was the only one who saw you hex yourself"

"Hex myself? He hexed me!"

"He hexed you! He said that you came into his room, got your wand out and then you cast the wrong spell and it backfired"

"What! That lying cheating idiot!"

"Would you like me to get the headmistress so that you can tell her exactly what happened?"

I nodded even though it badly hurt. Inside I felt sick knowing the Draco was so clever that he had managed to put me in hospital and somehow get away it. When professor Mcgonogall arrived I was asked to recount the incident so I did. I included about how Draco has been bullying Neville, how I went to try and talk to him about it and how when I entered the room he hexed me. When I had finished telling the story my eyes began to flood with tears.

"What's wrong Granger?" Asked the professor

"It's *sniff* j-j-just that I've never done anything badly wrong. I'm an O-grade student, I helped defeat Voldemort, and yet I still just get crap happen to me *sniff*. Draco *sniff* nothing ever happens to him *sniff* he joined the dark side for goodness sake! He almost killed Dumbledore, yet what bad things have ever happened to him?"

"Don't think like that. I'll have to go and fetch Mr Malfoy now and you don't want to give him the satisfaction of seeing you in this mental state so try to calm down best you can. I'll be back in a couple of minutes." Mcgonagall then left the room.

I tried my best to stop crying but no matter how hard I attempted I just couldn't. Since I had awoken none of my friends had even visited to make things worse.

When Professor Mcgonogall returned with Draco I was still crying, my eyes were swollen and I was probably in a worse state than I was minutes earlier.

"Mr Malfoy" began the headmistress "did you hex miss Granger?"

"I don't have to answer you!" Was the angry reply she got from Draco

"MR MALFOY, while you are in my school you are under my rules so I'll ask you again, did you, or did you not, hex miss Granger?"

"Maybe I did, maybe I didn't, if I say I did then i'll be expelled, If I say I didn't then you'll automatically side with Granger and I'll be expelled"

"Just answer truthfully"

"No, I didn't hex her"

"YOU LYING LITTLE -"

"Miss Granger" she gave me a stern look "Now, Mr Malfoy, what reason would miss Granger have to lie about you hexing her?"

"Maybe because she HATES ME!"

"I ONLY HATE YOU BECAUSE YOU DO PSYCHOTIC THINGS LIKE HEX ME!"

"She's also had a bump to the head, maybe that's made her a bit, you know, crazy"

I tried to sit up so that I could strangle him but when I attempted my back would move more than a few centre meters from the bed and my arms weren't long enough

The professor then said "Come to my office Mr Malfoy so that I can speak to you alone!" And I was left there still feeling deeply frustrated
