Part 7 - Nymphadora's point of View
I’m in a large yard. There’re butterflies and birds that are flying near me. And I’m walking. My feet are naked. And I’m walking, just walking. I can feel the high grass caressing my legs. There’s a sound. I can’t really hear it. Someone’s is by my side, I can feel it. Someone is running after me and he/she can’t reach me… almost done.
Me: Take my hand.
Voice: Dora… please…
Me: Take… it…
Voice: What?
Me: Take my hand.
Voice: Dora, what did you say?
But I couldn’t repeat it anymore.
Voice: Mrs Pomfrey, she said something!!
Me: Harry….?
Harry: Yes? Speak; don’t stop talking I’m here…
I slowly try to open my eyes, but the light was so bright that I just put my hands in front of them.
Then I felt Harry standing up and putting the curtains around my bed.
Harry: Here, open your eyes… slowly…
Me: Okay… * I open my eyes* Hello *smile*
Harry: Hello. *smile* You scared me to death! Do ever do it again!! He said as he hugged me. I hugged him back and I felt him smiling in my back.
Harry: I’m happy to see you awake.
Me: What happened to me?
Harry: I really don’t know. Miriam and Hermione are looking in the library to find something Mrs Pomfrey asked.
Me: Mrs Pomfrey?
Harry: Hogwarts’ nurse.
Me: Okay.
Harry: Maybe I should leave you rest…
Me: No. I don’t want you away. Stay here. Stay with me.
I didn’t notice, but he was holding my hand and slightly squeezing it.
Harry: I’ll stay if you want me to. Just let me get the others, I’m sure they’ll be glad you alright.
Me: But, you’ll be back, right?
Harry: I promise. You need to rest. I’ll be right back.
Mrs Pomfrey (I presume) was standing in behind us. When Harry stood up and walked away, she turned back to another patient and she said: “Young love…”
Me: What?!
Mrs Pomfrey: Shhhh. You need to rest Miss.
Me: I’m alright.
Mrs Pomfrey: No, you’re not.
Me: I am.
Mrs Pomfrey: Don’t be so stubborn!
Me: Okay, I’m not.
I heard footsteps coming in the Hospital Wing and I saw Miriam, Ron, Hermione and Harry coming back.
I saw Mimi running toward me and she hugged me.
Miriam: Oh, I’m so happy that you are ok!!!!
Me: Thanks. *smile* What’s wrong?
So, she starts explaining me what happened to me. Mrs Pomfrey was listening too. I find it weird. I’ve never heard about that. Even Mum never told me about this. I didn’t know this could happen…
Me: Ron, I’ll really get your brothers for that!!
Ron: I can understand that!!
Miriam: Oh Dora, I’m so so sorry!! It’s my fault.
Me: No, it’s ok, you didn’t know it either. I guess this would happen again in the future.
Miriam: What do you mean?
Me: First, if I don’t wake up and Fred & Georges decided to do it again… and, if it rains. That’ll be cold water… and if you’re by my side, this would happen again.
Miriam: Don’t worry. We’ll be prudent.
Me: I know *smile* By the way, thanks to you two * Ron and Hermione* for keeping an eye on me and helping for search. That was very kind of you *smile*
Ron & Hermione: Don’t mention it.
Me: Well, I think I’m okay, so I can’t get out of here?!
Mrs Pomfrey: I really don’t think so.
Me: But, Madam, I already missed the first day of class! I need to get out of here!
Mrs Pomfrey: I said NO, I want to keep an eye on you for 3 days, you don’t have a choice!
Me: But…
Mrs Pomfrey: That’s my final word.
Me: Oh!
Hermione: Don’t worry; we’ll get the lessons for you.
Me: Thanks.
Hermione: And anyway, it seems that someone’s gonna be here very often for the next few days – she said looking at Harry.
Harry: Shut up Hermione! *blush*
Hermione: Who said I was talking about you?
Harry: I… huh? …. Huh?
Hermione: Huh what? – proud of herself
Miriam: By the way, Professor Hooch said that the test for the Quidditch team is tomorrow…
Me: Oh no!! I’ll miss it!!
Ron: Why? Do you like Quidditch?
Me: If I like Quidditch!! Of course I do, I was a beater in Beaubatons.
Harry: You? A Beater?
Me: Yes. Why?
Harry: I’m the Gryffindor’s seeker.
Ron: And I’m the keeper *proud*
Hermione: And I’m nothing.
Everyone laughs at this. When someone came in and say:
Guy: Dora?
Me: Oh Oliver. What are you doing here?
Oliver: Just to see if you alright. I’ve heard about what happened to you…
Me: I’m ok now. I’ve found fabulous friends who helped me *smile*
Oliver: Can I talk to you?.... in private?
Me: Sure. Sorry guys, but can you…
Hermione: Okay!! Guys let’s go!! Come on Harry!! Harry!!! HARRY!!
Harry was watching Oliver and me weirdly. His look was between sadness and anger.
Harry: I’m coming…..
So, they leave. And there was just Oliver and me left in the room.
Me: So, Oliver, what do you want to talk about?
Oliver: Well… it’s difficult…
Me: Just tell me.
Oliver: I… was wondering if you’d like… - he stops.
Me: What?
Oliver: if you’d like to go out with me… someday?
Me: Why not. I don’t see why I shouldn’t *smile*
Oliver: *smiling* Great!!
Just then, he was coming closer and put his hand under my chin… he was getting closer…closer… when the door opens!
It was Fred & Georges.
Fred: Oh sorry guys…
Georges: it seems that the 2 of you are really busy…
Me: No, it’s okay, come in.
Oliver looked like he regretted what I’ve said. But I just realized what he was about to do. I just hope that Harry or anyone else has noticed it when the door burst open because I really didn’t mean his “going out someday” like this! Just as friends. Nothing else.
Fred and George have saved me from something, I know, I would regret to do, even if Oliver is an handsome guy.
Oliver: Well, I’ll leave you with your murders. I’m warning you guys, if you hurt her again, you’ll have to face me… *wink*
And Oliver leaves the room.
Fred: Care to explain?
Me: What?
Georges: Him.
Me: Him?
Fred: Oliver for Merlin’s sake!
Me: Oh! I though you were coming to see how I was…
Georges: Well, obviously, you feel really better…
Me: Not because of you my dears
Fred: Oh listens Sweetheart, we didn’t mean what happened to you.
Georges: We’re sorry.
Me: You can be sorry! Luckily, Mimi wasn’t a complete fairy.
Fred: Why?
Me: Because I could have not waken up. All of this just because of a stupid shower!
Georges: All because you didn’t want to wake up…
Me: You’re going to tell me “it serves you right”
Fred: No. We were…worried.
Me: You! Worried?! Hahahaha
Georges: Don’t laugh, we’re serious for once!!
Me: Oh come here!! Both of you!! * Big hug!!*
Fred: You know, maybe, I should tell you this, but when we came, Harry & the others are on the other side of this door. And they were…exited. I mean… nervous…
Me: Why?
Fred: Dunno.
Me: I don’t understand, what’s going on?
Georges: I think it’s about…
Me: Yes?
Fred and Georges share looks and agreed.
Fred: We think it’s about you and Oliver…
Me: Me and Oliver…
