Not good enough

Hospital Wing

28/11/20

"He's in critical condition, what in the world happened?!"

Author's POV

"Bloody Malfoy and Patil..." Harry sneered in pure outrage, spitting their names out as if it would make him puke.

"I'll have to tell the headmaster about this. It's gone too far, especially Mr.Malfoy. We must get going now but don't think you're getting away with this Miss Patil." Pomfrey exclaimed as she used her wand to lift Ron and Draco up in the air with an easy flick of her wand. Realizing she only had one bed she asked,

"Is anyone here willing to carry Mr.Malfoy to the hospital wing for me?" 

As soon as she mentioned Draco, a hand shot up from the center of the crowd. Harry had already taken Ron's matter into his own hands as he transported the magic between Madam Pomfrey's wand and Ron to his own wand and lay the redhead onto the stretcher. With the bed floating due to the support of his wand, he had raced towards the wing as quick as his legs would allow. 

"All right ----------! Take Mr.Malfoy and follow me immediately!" the woman announced to the boy.

The brunette pushed through the crowd and took Draco into his arms tenderly. There was clear disappointment on his face but he pushed it aside and sped towards the hospital wing with Madam Pomfrey at his heels. 

In the hospital wing

Harry's POV

Why did this have to happen? I completely lost it back there, but who cares! They deserved it, especially after what they did to Ron. It's so hard to look at him in this state, so pained and fragile. A critical condition she said...does that means he'll die? WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?! I CAN'T LOSE HIM!

"RON, PLEASE WAKE UP! I CAN'T LOSE YOU!"

Flashback

Lily's voice: "Not Harry, not Harry, please not Harry!"

 Voldemort: "Stand aside you silly girl ... stand aside now."

Lily: "Not Harry! please no, take me, kill me instead -"

Lily: "Not Harry! Please...have mercy...have mercy..."

A shrill voice laughs and a woman screams before the curse of death

Voldemort: "AVADA KEDAVRA!"

Flashback end

Author's POV

Harry screamed in fear and despair at the thought of losing another person he loves. The flashback had triggered him and he fell to his knees, gripping his hair violently. 

Madam Pomfrey burst through the doors with Cedric and her eyes fell upon the distraught boy near the unconscious redhead.  Immediately, she rushed over to him and placed her hands over his shoulders, supporting him to stand up before laying him on another bed.

"I know this must be very upsetting for you but Mr.Weasley is my top priority at the moment. Lay there and rest but don't disrupt me as I try to heal him!" she informed in a stern voice.

"U-understood.." Harry whispered in a stutter between sobs and gasps of air. He lay for a while before his eyes became lost in a distance, as he was deep in a train of thoughts. 

"Mr. ------, please lay Mr.Malfoy on a bed. QUICK!" she demanded. 

The boy lay Draco's figure onto the bed gently but quickly, understanding that Madam Pomfrey knows what's best so he must listen to her. 

Madam Pomfrey rushed to her office to grab essential potions and books. She rushed out with bottles in her arms, in hurried footsteps. She was determined to tend to Ronald Weasley. Slowly, she cleansed the blood in his hair before wrapping a bandage around his head to stop the potential bleeding. Then she went on to rub a healing potion on his scarred, bruised arms. Madam Pomfrey proceeded to grab some classic IcE~ to treat the bruises on his chest and his swollen nose after the multiple punches. 

Mr.-------! Please leave the wing or try to help Mr.Malfoy instead of just standing there!" she shrieked under the pressure of keeping the redhead stable.
