HERMIONE’S POV

We landed in a deserted ally after travelling with the portkey. This was all so weird! What the heck was happening? Where were we? I looked around quickly, only to find myself getting really dizzy. I leaned against a wall; Draco was immediately by my side.

         “Are you okay, love?” he asked, putting his arm around me.

         “Not really. I don’t feel too good.” I managed to get out before I puked my guts out. Draco stood behind me, holding my hair and stroking my back carefully.

         “It’s just a little portkey-sickness.” He said. I slowly straightened up again.

         “Ugh. That’s disgusting.” I stuttered. I was shaking now, after barfing I was always weak.

Wait… where did that thought come from? Was I beginning to remember again? I shook my head.

         “Come on sweetheart. Let’s get you to St. Mungos.” Said Draco. We began walking towards this St. Mungos place.

         “What is that place exactly?” I asked.

         “It’s a hospital for magical maladies and injuries. They have a department especially for spell damage. That is probably where you’re going.”

         “This is all so unreal. Why did this have to happen to me?”

Draco stopped walking and turned to look at me, “I don’t know, love. But we will get through this.” He said while cupping my face with his hands. I felt the heat rise in my face, and I knew my cheeks were getting red. Why did he have this effect on me? I smiled at him.

         “I really like it when you call me love.” I said. Draco chuckled and ruffled my hair, before we began walking again. Ugh, he was such a jerk sometimes. Hmm… sometimes, why did I know this?

         “Well, why wouldn’t I? You are my love.” He said and squeezed my hand.

         “I don’t know what it is, but I think I’m slowly beginning to remember stuff. Just small fragmented pieces, it doesn’t really makes sense in my head yet.” I shrugged.

         “What do you mean?”

         “Well, I get these weird thoughts all of a sudden. Like just before, I remembered how weak I always feel after barfing. And then now, I just thought about what a jerk you were sometimes.” I blushed while saying this; I really hoped he wouldn’t get mad at me for calling him a jerk. Luckily that didn’t seem to be the case. He just laughed at me.

         “Yeah. You used to call me a jerk a lot. You never meant it though, it was always just to tease me.”

We finally stopped walking; we were standing in front of a red-bricked building with a huge broken window. Above the window was a sign; it said ‘Purge and Dowse, Ltd’

         “What are we doing here?” I asked.

         “This is the entrance to St. Mungos. We have to step through the window.”

         “This can’t be a hospital! It’s just an abandoned store.”

         “Don’t be so naïve Hermione. You’re a witch don’t forget that. It’s bewitched you nutter.”

         “Oh, yeah of course. Sorry. I keep forgetting about that.” I muttered. Draco chuckled.

         “Come on. Let’s get in there, love.” He said. Hand in hand we stepped through the window. It was like entering a different world. Suddenly we were in a reception area. All the walls were white, and there were loads of wooden chairs all over the place. A lot of people in lime green uniforms were running around, yelling at each other. Draco pulled me towards a woman sitting behind a desk. She didn’t seem too happy about being interrupted.
