Sakura slowly knelt down next to Jack. Just because he said he loved her that didn't mean she wasn't going to be cautious, after all she knew how dangerous it could be. Smiling at him slightly she asked, "So what's the last thing you remember? Maybe if we know that we can help fill you in better on what you don't remember." She hoped that talking would keep him awake for at least a little while, but he needed the nurse. Speaking of where was she? They had been in here for ages.

Sakura gently ran her hand through his hair. Feeling something wet she looked down at it and was horrified to see red. Obviously Kayla had missed something when she fixed his cuts. She was however relieved to note that it wasn't too much blood.

Freya opened her bloodshot eyes again, "Lizzie? Are you sick too?" She said with a hoarse voice, not bothering to move her head at all, out of fear that she would start to black out. She sniffled, 'Haven't been this ill since I had pneumonia.'

Lizzie's head turned in the direction of the voice, her eyes widening. She didn't recognize the young woman, but apparently the woman knew her. Um.. hi she said shyly, quickly glancing at Chalice and then back at the young woman. I'm sorry, I don't know what... I mean I'm... I've gotta... She shook her head to show that she had no idea what was happening. Swallowing to prevent the tears to return she said I'm sorry but do I know you?

Jack seemed to be much calmer now, which was good. As Antonio waited, he saw Sakura run her hand through his hair and come away with blood on it. He had heard that areas with good circulation bled the most, but that they also healed the fastest. "Don't worry, it will be all right," he said. "It looks like a lot of blood, but it's perfectly natural. The wound is going to heal really fast."

Jack looked up at her "Er... I remember smothering ice-cream all over the wall at home, getting the babysitter in trouble" Jack looked around "I know, we've been here forever" he whispered to her, smiling comfortably as she ran her hand through his hair he blinked "Blood?" he asked her terrified

Jack looked up "I sure hope so, my head hurts" he told him while placing his fingers on his temples and pressing hard, it didn't work, he then laid his hands over his eyelids, it seemed to help.

Freya squinted her eyes, "Um, you should. I'm Freya. Remember? Freya Skyler...I know, Chris, your boyfriend." Hm, this was Lizzie wasn't it? Freya's poor eyes were now starting to tear up from strain, so she closed them and tried to relax.

Antonio looked at Jack and Sakura. "Everything that's happening is perfectly normal, although it might seem scary to you. Trust me, everything is going to be perfectly fine."

"Ahuh." Sakura nodded sure he was correct. "I don't feel good." She said while staring at her hand. She knew she should look away but she couldn't seem too.

Of course I do Lizzie said, her voice trembling a bit as she lied. I just don't know... I have no idea what I'm doing here... or what's happened or why, or who I am... Her lip shivered slightly and she continued. I'm sorry about what I said, I didn't mean to offend you... Freya. The last word came as a forgotten whisper after the sentence. I'm sure Chris can explain it all much better than me. With sad and confused eyes she watched Freya close her eyes again, and quietly she said This is some kinds hospital, isn't it? Are you hurt?

'Mhmm...' Freya thought suspiciously. "Don't worry about it, it's fine." She laid her hands over her face to block out the remaining light. "Yes. It is the hospital inside of a school." Freya said quietly, but it sounded like a boom in her head. "I'm just ill, nothing much to worry about." She could feel herself dozing off...

"Well, now that we are all here, perhaps the nurse should see you as well," Antonio said. It only made sense to get everything taken care of on this one single visit, even though the nurse was very busy today. "I'm sure you will be able to be seen, also, while we're here, just to make sure."

Oh, I hope you get well soon Lizzie said encouraging to Freya. Her mind filled up with thoughts, a school? That explained all the young students there. And this was the hospital? The question was; where was the nurse??

Willow had never felt so embarrassed in her entire life.

Well, maybe except for that time. . . Never mind. Thinking about the most embarrassing moments of her existance was definitely not a very good idea right now, all things considered. One thing was for certain, though--if this was not THE most embarrassing moment ever, it was most likely in the top five, then.

Cringe.

But then, why was she cringing? It wasn't like she had been hurt. More like she had hurt someone, which reminded her. . . "Er, are you still there?" And just to check, the girl looked over her shoulder for a split of second before shifting her gaze back to the floor. Truth was, when Professor Ashby commanded her to take Dominic to the hospital wing, Willow had only muttered a quick 'come on' as she grabbed her messenger bag, without even checking the boy had actually followed.

For all she knew, Dominic might have walked away or something. But he hadn't, for when she checked the boy was behind her.

Well, he certainly walked quietly. That, or maybe she was just too into her own little world. Willow knew herself only two well to know that it was most likely a bit of both.

As soon as she stepped inside the waiting area of the Hospital Wing, Willow started to feel a bit nervous. Hospitals were places that she did not particularly enjoy, and to be honest, if it weren't because she had been the one to cause the damage, she would have left as soon as she was sure the boy was inside the place.

But, accidentally or not, she had caused the damage. Besides, what would Dominic would think if she left? Wait--who cared what he thought, eh? She didn't care what he thought. Or anyone else, for that matter. Yes, that's right.

"Here we are," muttered the girl as she placed her messenger bag on one of the plastic seats. And then she just stood there looking a bit awkward, trying not to stare at him. "You, er--nevermind." Yes. Nevermind seemed like a pretty smart thing to say right now, because who knew what kind of stupidity she would have said because of how awkward she was feeling?

Chris walked into the waiting room from going to bathroom and went to check on Lizzie when he saw someone sitting close by. "Freya? Is that you?" he looked over at her, she didn't look well. "What happened?"

Dominic was feeling a mixture of many emotions right now. Half of him wanted to despise the Ravenclaw for injuring his snitch-catching arm, but the other half said to thank her. That this was meant to be. To walk solemnly alone with the one person who actually seemed to understand him. To know when it was time to speak and when not to. Not many people could do that and be tolerated by Dominic.

Walking just a few paces behind her shorter self, the fifth year watched absentmindedly as her shiny black hair swished behind her back. He was actually only distinctly aware of her presence and had it not been for her concerned expression and words as she peered over her shoulder, he might have forgotten completely. "Yes," he replied, almost monotonously.

Following her inside the waiting area, Dominic would have expected her to take him in there and leave. Actually, truth was, he wasn't really sure what to expect with Willow as she always seemed to do the unpredictable around him. But not the unpredictable in a bad sense; rather the kind that left him thirsty for more of her own personal mysterious perfume.

But incidentally, Willow had surprised him yet again as she dropped her bag one of the plastic seats, indicative of the fact that she was not going to leave him there. No - it appeared that Willow Kovac had a heart. Something that he wasn't sure his former captain would agree with, based on how he heard them bickering with one another a year ago.

"Thank you," he commented back, still holding his elbow protectively. Oh hopefully this nurse could make him better than new. As he recalled from the Intern Trelawney last year, who seemed to think he was just another nutcase. "You can stay, if you'd like," Dominic offered as he slipped into one of the seats and waited to be attended to.

Absentmindedly --and rather anxiously, too-- the girl reached for one lock of her dair hair before starting to twirl it around her slender fingers. She was trying to simply. . . disconnect herself from the situtation. Trying to forget that she had basically disjointed someone's arm. Trying to not ponder about the fact that the person was most like in pain. But that was not a very easy thing to do; not when Dominic was standing right there, just a mere feet away from she was, thinking Merlin's knows what about her.

It was definitely not easy. She started to pace around the place nervously.

Never had Willow found herself in such an awkward situation. This was the first time ever that she did not know what to say to fill the silence. Though perhaps, this was a good thing, for as far as Willow knew, Dominic Denton was maybe just waiting for her to say something--anything, in order for him to start yelling at her for what she'd done.

Keeping her mouth shut seemed like a pretty good idea right now. In fact, now that she thought about it, the silence did not actually bothered much. It was a bit numbing, to be honest, for thanks to it, her mind was beginning to wander around, to think about things she usually would not allow herself to think about. . .

. . . Her pacing came to an abrupt stop.

He was thanking her? For what? In Willow's opinion, he should be blaming her for his disgrace, but she was not about to complain. She really did not want to fall into a pointless discussion with him. "You are welcome," she whispered, eyeing him carefully. For what exactly was he welcome, she had no idea. Perhaps when his arm disjointed Dominic's way of, er, thinking had changed, too, somehow? Maybe this was his way of going into shock.

Except he looked completely fine. Asides from the injure arm, of course.

Upon hearing his following words, Willow's eyes opened wide for a split of second in surprise, before smoothing his entire expression. In truth, her theory of Dominic going into shock seemed rather likely now, for how was it possible that after what she had done, he still didn't mind her company? "I--sure. I don't mind to wait here with you." Really, the hospital didn't look so bad. Right now. Shifting her weight to her other foot for one second as she considered what to do next, Willow took a deep breath, and went to take the seat beside him.

Jack looked up "Fine?" He asked almost disbelievingly "What is the date?" he asked curiously

"Sakura?" Jack said concernedly

Jack frowned "All here?" he asked, who was all?

Jack was looking around, he saw this boy with... was that a prefect badge? A HUFFLEPUFF prefect badge? Jack recoiled a little as he remembered seeing the same badge on Kayla's robes, he wanted to get as far away from both of them as he could, problem was, Kayla was with the nurse at one end of the room, and this boy was at the other side of the room, Jack was in the middle, boxed in, unable to run, unable to even stand up! He pulled his knees to his chest with great trouble, he wound his arms around his knees so he could keep them there, he rested his head on his knees trying to ignore the pounding headache.

Sakura shook her head slightly before looking at Jack. "The date umm I'm not exactly sure actually. I'll be fine it's just I don't do well around blood." She tried to smile reassuringly. "By all Professor Dumont means you, me, John, Kayla and himself of course." That was when she noticed him recoil. Looking around she thought she saw the source of his discomfort. "Hey, don't worry neither of them means you any harm, they both in certain circumstances will help you." Sakura thought it best to not mention that just a few hours before Kayla had been threatening him.

Jack smiled "Gimme your hand" he pulled out a tissue and wiped off his blood "oh, so he means my family, the girl I've fallen in love with and other people" Jack reasoned "What?" Jack asked when she mentioned they were helping him "I don't need help" he sat quietly "She was threatening me, wasn't she?" Jack asked Sakura quietly with a glance at Kayla

Sakura looked at what he was wiping her hand with and realised that it was the handkerchief she had given him in Diagon Alley. Smiling slightly she said, "I didn't know that you still had it, I thought that I had lost it." Sakura frowned slightly, "She wasn't happy with you but you had just told the four of us." At this Sakura gestured to herself, Dumont, John and Kayla, "that you had hurt a girl and boy, both of whom I believe were Hufflepuff's. She wasn't pleased and neither was Dumont but I don't think she meant you any harm." At least not when she found us.

Jack smiled as he examined the handkerchief "I didn't know either" he admitted honestly "I told you that I'd hurt a boy and girl?" Jack asked disbelievingly "I wouldn't hurt a girl!" Jack said stubbornly "They weren't pleased?" Jack raised an eyebrow "How not pleased?" he asked "Found us where?" he was confused.

"Of course, how could you have known? A few hours ago you probably did but now you don't remember much. Oh and you can call me Saku, Kura or Sak if you want." She said with a genuine smile. "You didn't mean to hit her. You were aiming for the boy and she got in the way. You didn't do it on purpose but never-the-less you did do it. Hmm not pleased as in I want to kill you slowly not pleased. Oh and Dumont was talking about how you shouldn't push your luck or you may get expelled. This was your second detention after all." Smiling slightly she then said, "In the bathroom on the fourth floor. We were talking and I was so glad that I found you before Kayla did. Well technically I suppose you found me. Anyway like I said we were talking and then Kayla burst in. She startled you I guess because you jumped backwards into a mirror, which brings us to what you do remember from that time up until now. By the way, I didn't actually say that she found us." She gave him a slight smirk to show that she wasn't necessarily angry with him.

Jack smiled "I like Sak" he rested his head on the cushion "They wanted to kill me? Slowly?" Jack asked unnerved "SECOND DETENTION?" he asked surprised before grabbing his head again "No shouting" he mumbled to himself "Er... Bathroom..." Jack trailed off "What is that smell?" he asked crinkling his nose up "Oh, you didn't? I heard it" Jack was confused, how could he hear something she'd said, but no-one else, not even her had heard it, this was worrying.

Sakura smiled slightly. "I thought you would. It was what you called me, no-one else was allowed too. Okay so maybe not kill slowly but you would maybe have gotten hurt if they hadn't of calmed down and you hadn't of run." She giggled before remembering herself. "Yep second detention." Seeing that his head hurt she started fussing over him before she realised what she was doing. When she did she blushed and ducked her head. "That smell would be Dragon Dung, you had to do something with it in detention... Umm no I didn't say it I thought it. I guess you read my mind by accident again." Shrugging slightly she got into a more comfortable condition and started tapping her fingers. Patience was not one of her virtues.

Jack smiled "Sak, Sak, Sak" he repeated with a twinkle in his eye everytime he said it "I ran off?" he sniggered "hmm, Dragon Dung... which professor was that then?" Jack asked "Accident?" Wow, she knew more about him than he did! He wondered how much time he'd lost if he'd managed to get two detentions...
