Jennifer opened her eyes to a dim, flickering yellow light. She glanced to the left and saw a lamp flashing next to her. She reached up and felt heavy bandages on her head. "Hey," came Jake's voice. It sounded tense. She simply groaned in response. She felt exhausted, part of it was probably just because she was groggy after being unconcious for so long. "When you fell back, you hit your head hard on the ground. It was only minor, but I thought best not to take chances," he said, answering her questions. She felt a slight pressure on the mattress by her hips and she glanced down to see him leaning his hand on it.
Alexander was still slumbering in a mattress a little ways away. His face was covered in bandages and stitches thanks to Natheniel's curse. His lips were twitching as he dreamed. He couldn't really make out his dream, it was just a blurr of colors and flashes.

Nathaniel's grinning face poked up from the side of her bed suddenly. He'd been sitting there since they were brought here, refusing to leave Jennifer or disturb her. "Hey, Bubbles." he grinned, using a totally random nickname for her.
Laticia sat beside Alexander's bed, her legs crossed and hands clenched in her lap. She cats an angry glare Nathaniel's way before her light gray eyes focused on the sleeping Slytherin boy's face.

"You are so stupid," she muttered, closing her eyes again. She paused to cuss quickly. "I can't believe I started that fight," she grumbled angrily.
"Atica," rumbled Alex in his sleep. He had been saying Laticia, but it was incoherent with his current state.

Nathaniel rolled his eyes, "Pfft, Alex was looking for a good reason to duel me, anyways - not your fault you do awesome hexes at exactly the right times. Besides, if I hadn't been laughing my head off, he wouldn't of even been able to guess who casts the spell." he chuckled. "And I'm not stupid, just an idiot at smart times." he added, grinning widely.
Laticia tilted her head, confused. Who was 'Atica'? Well, she couldn't even be sure it was that - Alex was hard to understand in his sleep. She unclenched one of her hands and gently touched her fingers to his cheek.
OOC: Must admit, Alex and Laticia are cute X3

She sighed and rolled over. "I'm tired, go away," she mumbled. Of course, she was teasing, but she did want to go back to sleep.
"Hold on there, Jen," said Jake. "What?" she asked angrily. "You need to take some of this," he said, chuckling at her attitude. He held up the potion.
She exhaled impatiently and sat up to drink the potion. "Okay. Can I go back to sleep now?" she chided, annoyed. "I guess," he laughed, patting down the tangled red mess that was her hair. She slumped back down her pillows and stuffed her face into it. "How come your not in a bed?" she asked, her voice muffled by the soft fabric.

"I got off easily." Nath grinned in response, "A broken shoulder and sore joints from the drop. Apparently, I should have a concussion, buuuuuuuuuuut, I didn't land on my head so it's all good." He poked her shoulder, "I'd be happier if we'd switched places and that curse hit me rather than you, though." he muttered.

"I'd have to disagree with that 'I got off easy,' statement. When Jenny and Alex are fit, you three are in a world of trouble with Dumbledore," he said as he mixed some potions at Jennifer's bedside.
Jennifer sighed and slipped into blissful sleep. A light snore emanated from her.

"Me and Alex were the ones dueling," Nathaniel grumbled, glancing at Jake. His head disappeared behind the bed again as he slumped back against the wall. His sky blue eyes flicked towards Alex and Laticia, catching the malice-filled glare he received from the girl before she turned back to Alex.

Alex got up groggily, the Hospital Wing swirling in his vision. He set his large hands on the bed and propped himself up. "So how long am I stuck in this place?" he growled to Laticia. "Oh, about another day," came Jake's voice before Laticia had the chance to respond. He glowered at the teacher.
He bet if he had a one-on-one duel with Weasley, he would win. He knew he would. It was just because she'd had Natheniel on her side.
"Are you both ok to go see the headmaster now?" asked Jake, both his blue and his green eye flicking between the two students. "Whatever," came the annoyed snarl of Alex. Jennifer had just woken up at the sound of Alex's awakening. "Sure," she siged as she slowly got off the bed. Alex swung his large legs over the side, planting them on the floor angry.
That was a mistake. The room spun again and he discreetly put a hand on the headboard to balance himself. Jake set off at a brisk walk, allowing Jennifer to scramble after him, her wild red hair still a mess.

As Alexander awoke, Nathaniel got to his feet, moving to the foot of Jennifer's bed. Malfoy wouldn't get another chance at her.
He strode beside Jennifer, following Jake with anxious glances at his red-headed friend. "Feeling OK?" he asked quietly.
Laticia gripped Alex's arm, helping him balance himself. Her light gray eyes were worried and annoyed. She studied his features carefully.

"Yeah, just tired," she said, yawning as if to prove her point. She trudged on behind Jake sluggishly.
Alex shrugged off Laticia - he wasn't in the best of moods at the moment - and clomped towards the other three.

Nathaniel smiled at her answer, raising a hand to ruffle her tangled mess of hair more. "As soon as this is over with you can sleep all you like and I'll hex anyone who tries to wake you." he grinned.
Laticia stared at Alex for a moment, outraged at his treatment of her. She breezed past him, heading for the Slytherin common room. If he didn't want her around - fine, she wouldn't be around.
