Miss me?

Samantha woke up from her sleep with a start. She was panting and sweaty, not only from the fever she has but also from the nightmare that took over her dreams.

Harry knocks on Samanthas door before walking in with a bowl of soup and a cold rag. His eyes soften seeing his sister, her skin was pale white and there were dark purple bags under her eyes.

"Hey Sam. Did you sleep okay?" Harry whispers sitting on the edge of her bed resting the cold rag on her forehead causing her to relax.

"You shouldn't be here. Im going to get you sick bub. The famous Harry Potter can not risk getting sick." Samantha jokes dodging the sleeping question, her voice was weak and scratchy, making Harry roll his eyes.

Harry would never admit to to her but he was getting worried about her health, no one got the flu in the summer especially this bad, and with her being poisoned less then a year ago it added onto his worries.

"I wrote to Mrs. Weasley asking for any home remedies we could do since I can't use magic yet and you're to sick to." Harry says gently and Samantha hums gently her eyes becoming heavy.

Harry takes one of her hands in his giving it a small squeeze before walking out of the room. Maybe he should write Mrs Weasley again just in case she didn't get the first letter.

But instead Harry decided to go to the park to enjoy the warm weather, he knew Samantha wouldn't agree but she was to sick to even notice him being gone.

After an hour of sleep, Samantha woke up to yelling and screaming. Samantha slowly got out of bed and managed to walk down the stairs without falling. Her whole body was aching and sore.

When she walks into the living room she saw Dudley looking almost as if he was petrified with her aunt and uncle looking at him worriedly.

"What happened?" Samantha asks her guardians and they just glare at her making her step back slightly.

"Ask your brother! He did this! Come Vernon we have to get Dudley to the hospital." Petunia says as they start to leave the house.

Samantha turns to look at Harry with an eyebrow raised. Harry scratches the back of his neck and gives his sister a sad smile.

"Dementors came and attacked us, I used a petronous charm and got expelled from Hogwarts." Harry says innocently.

If Samantha was in her normal perfect health she would be livid with her idiotic younger brother, but instead she just shook her head not even bothering to scold him on his stupidity.

"Carry me back upstairs, I'm to tired to walk back up." Is all she says shocking Harry, but he did what she asked.

Harry picked Samantha up bridal style and carefully carried her up to her room. He layed her down and covered her up with only a sheet since it was so hot, luckily the sun went down minimizing the heat.

"Rest Sam. I'll stay right here I promise." Harry whispers and Samantha closes her eyes again letting sleep take over her body.

Harry did what he promised not leaving his sisters side, he was to busy checking her pulse and breathing every thirty seconds. Harry was praying that Mrs. Weasley would write back soon.

Half way through the night he heard her doorknob giggle and he stands up holding his wand out in case it was a death eater on the other side.

The door opens and Tonks lowers her wand smiling widely at the boy who lived while Harry looks at the group of people concerned.

"Tonks? Moody? Lupin? What are you guys doing here?" Harry asks confused.

"Well rescuing you of course! Where's your sister?" Tonks asks walking into the room with Moody and Lupin following. Harry looks down to his sister, who was still peacefully sleeping.
