Chapter 11
Eliana's POV
Everything was pitch-black, and I was unable to move. What is going on? I thought to myself. I felt a gentle hand pick up mine and hold it. I heard distant voices. One sounded like Harry, and the other sounded like Ron.
"Harry, she's going to be fine. She'll wake up soon." I heard Ron say.
"Yeah... And how would you know? She's in a bloody coma, Ron. How would you know if she's going to be okay?" I heard Harry snap back. "Sorry Ron, I- I just need fresh air." I heard footsteps that slowly faded away. I'm in a coma? I thought. I prayed that I would wake up soon. For Harry.
Harry's POV
That night I stayed in the infirmary. Madame Pomfrey let me sleep the night in. I lay on a bed next to Ellie's and stared at the ceiling. My eyes began to water. She doesn't deserve this, I've lost so much, I can't lose her either. I started to cry but then stopped when I saw the door open.
I heard two voices. "Draco, I can't believe you dragged me into this," A voice said.
"Shut up Cedric, you just saw me sneaking out, anyways I wanted to see her, and I don't want to visit her during the day because, well... I don't want people to think I like her, she's just a friend." I was so confused. Draco and Cedric? How odd. I saw a figure walk to the bed next to mine and saw him pick up her hand. He whispered something and walked back to Cedric. But as he walked out he stopped. "Lumos," I heard Draco say. He walked over to my bed, I tried to slow my breathing but it kept getting faster. I felt a small poke and heard, "Good, he's asleep. Let's go." I heard they leave and once they were out of earshot, I breathed a sigh of relief. But I kept wondering what he said to Ellie.
The next morning I got up early and went to the Gryffindor Tower. When I got to my dormitory Ron immediately sat up and asked, "Where were you, you never came?"
"I was in the infirmary." He looked like he was about to say something but he looked at my bloodshot eyes and stayed quiet. My first class was potions. When I got there Professor Snape wasn't there. We sat waiting and after 5 minutes he walked in.
"Page 364, Now," He said sternly. We all opened our books and began reading the instructions. As we made the potion, I noticed Professor Snape was being harsh... Way too harsh. "You added 0.01 ounces more than you were supposed to," He yelled at Hermione. He was even being harsh to Draco. "You're stirring it too slowly boy," He said to Draco. Draco looked down and began stirring it faster. "Now you're stirring it too fast. Do you not know how to listen or read?" He shouted at him. Draco's eyes began to water but he quickly wiped them hoping no one saw him.
After our potions were done he asked that we look into them, for they will show the thing you dread the most. I looked into mine and saw Ellie, sleeping. As the image began to become clearer I realized what it was showing me. A coffin, not a bed. I quickly stopped looking at it and began to pack my bag. Once we left, I saw the majority of people upset. From both Snape and what they saw.
