CEP's POV

Harry entered the Infirmary wing for his weekly potion, the first since the holidays, when he saw a teenager inside. Wasn't that...?

The boy sat up straighter immediately at seeing Harry enter. He smiled back widely.

"Miss Peverell!" He claimed with a massive eagerness.

Harry glanced in the office's door direction and then approached the boy.

"What happened to you?" He wondered, signalling the bandages around the boy's torso.

"Got cursed by some Slytherins. Nothing much." The other argued. "It just become all worth it."

"Why is that?"

"You are actually visiting me." The boy said.

Harry almost face-slapped himself. Just great! This really was the boy who had given him a love letter a few months ago... and looked like he had won a backbone and could actually speak back now!

"Heiress Peverell." Madam Pomfrey's voice rescued him and Harry turned to see the woman leaving her office. "My apologies, I forgot your booked appointment."

"You had your hands full." Harry agreed, signalling the teenager who apparently had a massive crush of him. "Is my potion ready?"

"Not yet. You need to wait as it breathes." The School Healer argued.

"Miss Peverell can wait with me as it gets ready." The Ravenclaw teen eagerly put in.

Someone please kill him...

Something in Harry's face must have told the woman Harry's thoughts on the subject.

"I'm afraid not, McLaggen. Your healing will be undone if you do not lay down and rest." The stern woman retorted and Harry sent her a thankful look. "Heiress Peverell, wait in my office as I get the potion ready."

Harry nodded, bowed his head slightly at the Ravenclaw and then hurried to the office, doing his best not to look too eager. Eventually the mid-aged woman returned with his potion and let him drink it under her watch. Since the infertility spell that his potions had stopped. He couldn't take the same that Ron and he used to take because it could activate the hex again. Today would be his first time since then as Professor Slughorn had to brew a new batch just for Harry first. He closed his eyes as he felt his throat scratch in reaction to the potion as well as his hips felt a slight pain as his bones rearranged slightly to start to make him win more willowy figure.
