A Thorn in My Side(The Owl House Oc Story)

Henry and Lucky.....

Henry's POV

(TIGGER WARNING: ABUSE!!)

Henry stared at the potion confusion swirled in his head, "How do you-"

"Here like this." Henry looked up at Bosche who was drawing a spell that dropped some ingredients in.

"Ah- my bad...." Henry shrunk down, "Thanks Bosche."

Bosche nodded, "Where's your potion book?"

"With all this crap and Hope being in the hospital it's rough." Henry groaned. "But to answer your question.... Hope accidentally burned it when practicing magic...."

"How the hell did that happen?" The pink witch raised an eyebrow.

"I was doing homework and she was showing off to Bristle, then my book turned to ashes.. But Mr.Teacher won't let me get a new one because he doesn't believe me." Henry groaned.

Bosche shrugged, "Oh by the way! How is Hope?"

"Better. She's been learning how to walk again. Bristle refuses to leave her side. Hope wants Bristle to go to school but she refuses... And I know Hope doesn't want to admit it.. But you can tell she's still hurting, every step she takes... You can see the pain in her eyes and hear it in her voice.." Henry sighed,  his ears pinned against his head.

"Man. Me and Willow will have to visit someday." Bosche remarked.

"What! You're not apart of this class!" Henry turned to the door and could see long white hair and a beast track uniform.

"I know! But I need to talk to Henry." Lucky looked over and waved his hand to come on.

Henry stood up and followed Lucky. "Lucky what's going on?" He could barely keep up with the witch.

He looked back. "It's Hope."

Henry felt his blood run cold. A surge of energy sent him running. His heart was pounding. "What's going on with her!"

Lucky looked back, "that's the thing! I don't know, Renae called me and she was crying and her words were hard to understand besides the words Hope's hurt."

Henry stared, "But she's been hurt for a long time."

Lucky shook his head. Soon the two reached the hospital and ran in. Henry could see Renae standing out in the lobby.

"Renae whats going on!" Henry asked rubbing up.

Renae looked at Henry. "Well.." her voice was choked. "While practicing walking... Hope passed out... The doctors think it's from pain since nothing seemed to be wrong with her. But the doctors had no idea she was hurting."

Henry was silent before speaking, "I knew.... You could see it in her eyes.. Where was Bristle in all this."

Renae gaze broke, "God... She was getting food from the café across the street. When she got back the doctors were taking Hope back to her room... I was ordered to keep Bristle from entering the room." Renae paused and stared at her hands. "She didn't calm down.. then I hand to hold her back. She's forgiven me- but still... I held  her back from Hope.."

Henry felt a pang of pity for his friend. "Where's she now?"

"In the room. She agreed to stay away from Hope if she could just be in there." Renae said nodding towards the hallway that Hope's room was in.

Henry let out a weary sigh, "Now what do I do, Hope is obviously... Fine.... Sorta.."

"Maybe go back to school?" Lucky suggested.
