Brittany opened the door to the hospital wing.
"Hello Madam Pomfrey."
She smiled.
"Oh what now, dear?"
Madam Pomfrey asked.
"Well, Harry broke his arm because of a rogue Bludger, and I'm pretty sure Lockhart's trying to fix it...so, it may be even worse. He'll be here anyway."
Madam Pomfrey sighed.
"That man has no idea what he's doing. Why ever Dumbledore hired him...."
Brittany smiled and went back out the door. Sure enough, Ron and Hermione, followed by most of the Gryffindor Quidditch team, were helping Harry to the hospital wing.
"I told Madam Pomfrey what happened."
Brittany said as Harry cradled his arm.
"It's much worse than when you left, Lockhart went and got rid of all the bones in my arm."
Harry growled.
"It could happen to anyone, honestly. A simple mistake."
Hermione defended.
"Oh, stop defending Lockhart, you just fancy him."
Ron received a glare from Hermione.
"Well. Hope you grow them back."
Brittany pushed the door open for Harry.
"So do I."
Harry muttered.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Brittany was causally drawing on a piece of parchment while Hermione read a book. She attempted to draw a person, but it didn't really look so good.
"I'm going to get this."
She continued practicing but didn't really get it.
"Hmm."
She dipped her quill back into the ink bottle.
"I really need pencils. Muggle tools can be better, you know."
She said out loud.
"Sure."
Hermione continued reading, not paying attention. Fred had come up behind her.
"I'l not an expert, but I'm pretty sure eyes go,"
He pointed at a place on Brittany's paper.
"Here. You've put them up too high."
Brittany nodded.
"Yeah, I did. Thanks!"
Fred smiled.
"No problem."
Brittany bit her lip and continued to add to the drawing.
"I think,"
She placed her quill down, the drawing that she believed looked okay finished,
"That I've found a new hobby."
Hermione looked up from her book.
"Now you can follow the rules."
She looked back down.
"Says the girl who's breaking 50."
Brittany rolled her eyes.
"No, I'm not replacing pranking. Just adding to it. You'll see."
