Journey's P.O.V

I was laying in my bed, absolutely miserable. All the guys had gone to their last class of the day. James informed me that Lily has a free period, but she hasn't come up yet. 

I am completely fretting over tomorrow night. Madame Pomfrey gave me no heads up whatsoever to when I would be allowed to leave and I would like to go to the dance. 

And my mind is still a mess from both Remus and Sirius kissing my cheek. For the whole hour after they had done so, I laid in my bed in pure glee. When Remus and James showed up later, I was mentally scolding myself. What would Draco do if he found out that I was swooning over two guys kissing my cheek. He would be furious because he is always way too overprotective. 

I sighed. I laid in bed and grabbed some random piece on candy. I pulled up a Chocolate Frog - one among many. I saw that there was something written on the box and looked at it. 

I hope you get well soon, Jo. We should've gotten there earlier and your head probably would've never even needed stitches. I'm sure Poppy will let you out for the dance, which I know you are oh so eager to go to. ;)

-Remus

Stitches?! I got stitches?! Oh my god. I've always hated the mere thought of something being sown through my body. I shivered.

I opened my chocolate frog. I kept my hand over the lid so the frog wouldn't jump out as I ripped the lid. I let go and grabbed the frog, which had started jumping, by it's leg. Harry and I figured out how to keep our frog in place after his jumped away in first year. 

I smiled at the memory. 

Madame Pomfrey didn't scold me, like she had earlier today, for eating chocolate. She walked over to my bed. "You should be able to go down to the Great Hall for dinner tonight. I have a shower and clothes back in that room-" She pointed, "-over there. Feel free to take what you like." She walked into her office. 

I finished my frog before getting up to take a shower. I took a second to get up because a wave of light headedness washed over me. I had to clutch onto the side of the bed. Once I had recovered, I went into the shower room. 

It was actually pretty nice.  I took a long, warm shower. I was very careful when rubbing my head with soap. I was disgusted to feel the dried blood that I was washing out of my hair. After wrapping myself in a towel, I walked into the closet. There was clothes for every person in here. I picked out an outfit and changed. I got back to my bed and saw a familiar red head sitting in a chair reading. I smiled. 

"Lily?" She looked up and grinned. She shut her book and rushed over to me, pulling me into a bear hug. 

"Oh Journey! Thank god you're okay!" She pulled away and I saw her grinning. "I came in to see you and Madame Pomfrey said you were in the shower. I thought you'd be out here because James told me that he told you that I would come because this is my free period." I smiled. 

"So you and James are talking?" She rolled her eyes. 

"Only because we both care about you and hope you're okay. Other than that reason, I would ignore him completely."

"Sure." She sighed. 

"Anyways, when do you get out of here?" 

I looked up at the clock and grinned. "Within the next 5 minutes." She looked up at the clock and grinned too. 

Just like I expected, Madame Pomfrey came out and told me I could go to the Great Hall. She also said that she would have all the candy sent to my room.

Lily and I walked through the halls. "I was going to visit you earlier but I couldn't find one time when those goddamn boys weren't here! They were like your body guards or something. I was sure I would never get the chance." I laughed.
