Scars | Harry Potter x Reader (taking a pause)

Year 3: Broken Broom

You woke up a few hours later to Harry being gone and you covered in a blanket. You weakly used your arms pushing yourself up so you were sitting and you saw a fresh bowl of soup with a note next to it.

I have headed to Quidditch and it's against Hufflepuff so it'll be easy. I brought you some soup and it's fresh so eat up! I'll see you later to update you :)

Lots of Love, Bear

You smiled at the message took the hot soup and felt as it soothed your throat and stomach.

After you finished your soup, you quietly got up to make sure Madam Pomfrey didn't hear you and walked out of the Great Hall and to the Slytherin common room. You had to get changed out of your pajamas but layered up since it was raining.

You quickly made your way to the quidditch field and covered yourself in a poncho. When you got there, Harry passed you but didn't realize it was you. You weren't in the stands, you were at the bottom of them to the side so no one could see you.

Suddenly Harry and Cedric (the two seekers) flew up in the clouds to the point where they weren't visible anymore.

All of a sudden, a body wearing yellow fell out of the sky. You put your hands over your mouth but he was fine. Harry had been gone in the clouds for awhile. You were getting nervous when you started hearing screams from above. Then there you saw it. Harry James Potter falling out of the sky completely blacked out.

"Arresto Momentum" Dumbledore called out making Harry slow down so he wouldn't hit the ground as hard.

"Harry!" you screamed running out onto the field. "It's ok, you're going to be ok!" you said frantically kneeling on the ground next to him.

A group of Professors then rushed over to Harry and took him to Madam Pomfrey with you following.

"Is he going to be ok?" you asked.

"Yes, he has just passed out" McGonagall said "and also, I thought you were sick?".

"I was and I probably still am but I couldn't miss his quidditch game" you responded.

She sighed and you finally got to the hospital wing. They rushed him over to the bed that was next to yours and placed him down. The other professors besides Dumbledore left so he could discuss things with Madam Pomfrey.

You sat on his bed and grabbed his hand and started running your fingers through his hair. Then the entire Gryffindor quidditch team besides Oliver came in along with Ron, Hermione, Seamus, Neville, and Dean.

"Where's Oliver?" you asked.

"I think he's in the showers trying to drown himself" George replied.

"Why?" you asked not too concerned knowing he wouldn't achieve it.

"Because we lost to Hufflepuff" Fred added.

"He looks a bit peaky" Ron said.

"Peaky?" Fred asked.

"What do you expect" George added.

"He fell over 100 feet" Fred told him.

"Yeah come on Ron, let's walk you off the Astronomy tower" George added.

"Let's see what you look like" Fred added.

Everyone was laughing at this when Harry said "Probably a right sight better than he normally does".

"Harry!" you said hugging him.

"Let the man breath Y/n" Ron said.

"Are you alright?" you asked still hugging him ignoring what Ron said.

"Yeah I'm brilliant, Y/n I thought you were sick" Harry responded.

"Well I was and probably still am but I snuck out to the field because I couldn't miss the game and good thing I did because you fell out of the sky" you said relieved.

"Yeah you gave us a right good scare there mate" Fred said.

"What happened?" Harry asked.

"Well you fell off your broom" Ron said.

"Really?" Harry said sarcastically "I meant the match, who won?".

"Um no one blames you Harry" Hermione said.

"Yeah the dementors aren't supposed to come inside the grounds" you added.

"Dumbledore was furious" Hermione said.

"As soon as he saved you, he sent them straight off" you finished as everyone else was standing but you were still sitting on the bed holding Harry's hand.

"There's uh, something else you should know too Harry, um, when you fell, your broom... it sort of blew into the Whomping Willow, well." Ron said slowly holding up his crushed broomstick.

"I'm sorry to hear about your broomstick Harry, is there no chance of fixing it?" Lupin asked as you, him and Harry were walking through the forest.

"No" Harry started "Professor, why do the dementors affect me so? I mean more than everyone else.".

"Listen, the dementors are amongst the foulest creatures to walk this earth. They feed on every good feeling, every happy memory, until a person is left with absolutely nothing but their worst experiences. You are not weak Harry, the dementors affect you most of all because there are true horrors in your past, horrors you classmates can scarcely imagine. Along with you Y/n but they are both in different yet the same ways. Both of you have nothing to be ashamed of" Lupin told you.

"I'm scared Professor. For me and Y/n" Harry said and because of this you grabbed Harry's hand in a way of comfort.

"Well I'd consider you a fool if you weren't" Lupin replied.

"I need to know how to fight them. You could teach me! You made that dementor on the train go away" Harry said.

"It was two that night and they were quite occupied with Y/n so they were distracted." Lupin said.

"Yeah you're welcome Harry" you said sarcastically causing a laugh from all three of you.

"But you made it go away" Harry said.

"Well I don't pretend to be an expert Harry but as the dementors seem to have developed a particular interest in you, perhaps I should teach you along with Y/n but after the holidays for now I need to rest." Lupin said.
