Numb

I couldn't move. Nothing would cooperate with me. I was stiff. It was like I was paralysed. However I could still hear everything around me. I didn't know how long I was laying in the girls bathroom on the floor before anyone came and found me. I also didn't know who found me because they ran out after and got Professor McGonagall along with the other professors.

I figured they took me to the hospital because I constantly hear Madam Pomfrey talking about how out of hand it was getting with people being petrified. Mother and Father came to visit and I heard them arguing with Dumbledore although it was mainly father and I could hear mother sat next to me along with Draco talking quietly wanting to know how this happened. Since I was petrified then Draco had come to the hospital every day to see how I was doing and I know he felt bad about what happened but it wasn't his fault.

Draco's POV

A Malfoy getting petrified? That shouldn't happen especially seen as it was only mudbloods who were getting petrified. I should have been there. I should have been able to save her and if one of us had to be in that position it should be me but instead I was getting bothered by Crabbe and Goyle and they were acting really odd. I felt as if I had failed to protect her from harm. Like I had failed as a brother. Yes we have our arguments, some bigger than others but at the end of the day she is still my little sister. She is the one I can go to when father is acting violent or he is annoyed at me. She is the one who actually knows me for me. She is honestly the best sister anyone could ever ask for. And if anything happened to her I don't know what I would do.

A week passed and she had still not woken up just like the rest of the people who were petrified. It was an endless tunnel of not knowing what was going to happen. If she was ever going to wake up. If she was ever going to pull another prank on me or laugh or smile or anything that she used to do every day. I was skipping classes and not eating properly and the others told me she would be fine but I couldn't ignore the feeling of being helpless. I didn't care what people thought anymore. I don't care what father said about keeping the reputation up. I didn't care about anything. I just wanted my sister back. That's all I wanted and all I cared about.

Ginny's POV:

I couldn't tell anyone that it was me who was letting the basalisk out. Well it wasn't really my fault. However I couldn't go to Dumbledore because he would expel me for sure. I was always quiet these days and I felt bad for Eve because it shouldn't have happened to her but I was too scared to say anything to anyone. I would be expelled and then mum and dad would hate me and all of my brothers would hate me. Just everyone would hate me. So I couldn't say anything to anyone apart from writing it into the diary because the ink always disappeared so no one would see it and then Tom also replied a lot which made me feel better because it felt like I had told someone it's just they couldn't do anything to help. However it always felt like he was real in some way and I had a feeling I would meet him but that is probably just silly.

Draco's POV:

She was still unconscious and father was definitely angry because he would keep arguing with mother and then with Dumbledore whenever they came in to see Eve. She was still the same because she couldn't move or talk I don't even know if she can hear or not but I doubt it. I wish that Madam Pomfrey and Professor Sprout would hurry up and get this remedy made so then she could wake up again. Everyday that passed then my hope dwindled. If this carried on like this then no one would wake up especially my little sister. I should have protected her father always said it was my job to protect her and I failed at doing even that. She had to wake up she just had to. Mother was getting more and more stressed too with everyday that went past. To be honest I didn't blame her because I did aswell. She didn't deserve this and this shouldn't have happened to her but here she was lying on a hospital bed unable to move.

I sat next to her bed for what felt like the billionth time today I could feel the lump in my throat as I tried to hold back the tears. I couldn't help it I just broke down crying as no one else was there to see me. "I'm sorry. I'm so so sorry Eve." I said repeatedly. I felt awful I had never felt so angry, confused, upset and guilty all at the same time and especially at this level.

A few days later Granger got brought into the hospital wing. I wasn't surprised she is a mudblood after all everyone else who had got petrified was a mudblood or a ghost. It was getting out of hand and I could tell Potter and Weasley still thought I was the heir of Slytherin but I didn't care anymore. All I wanted was my sister to wake up that's the only thing I wanted in the world. I needed her to wake up. I just felt numb.
