"Leo!" Sue called from the DADA class "Come on!"

I help up my hand in reply and stammered towards the classroom. My right leg had been hurting since the morning for absolutely no reason and it was really hard to walk around. After the rumors Pansy spread, no one would even believe me; "Need a hand?"

I turned around and saw Parvati calmly strolling behind me. "Yes, please!" She picked up my book bag and asked "Whatever happened, Leo?" "I really don't know" I replied "My leg's hurting and my mind is swimming"

Parvati picked my hand and gently helped me walk towards the classroom. Just then, Moody stuck his head through the door and gasped when he saw me. "Malfoy!" he barked "What happened?!" "My leg is hurting really badly, Professor" I said still limping towards the classroom. "Parvati Patil," he ordered "take Malfoy to Madam Pomfrey, NOW!"

Parvati turned me around and took me towards the Hogwarts Martin. "Well, well, if it isn't the the Dark Lord's daughter"

I could recognize that stubborn, high-pitched and dragged voice anywhere. "Shut up, Pansy" I snapped massaging my leg. "Ooh" she said moving at a side so I could make out her so-called 'best friends' , Maggie and Winnie standing behind her smirking proudly "Did your new evil mission fail?" "You and your silly little rumors, Pansy. Maybe, most of Hogwarts believes you," I replied annoyed ", but I still have a few people behind my back who're going to support me no matter what". Pansy opened her mouth to reply back, but Winnie poked her back.

"What?" Pansy asked her, annoyed. Winnie replied back with a 'she's strong with her words. Don't fight her' look which Pansy understood perfectly. She looked at me through the corner of her eye and turned around and walked away. "Man Leo!" Parvati said smiling "You're good at self-defense. Sometimes, I wish I was you". "Parvati...." I replied blushing beetroot.

When Parvati and I entered the Hospital Wing, Madam Pomfrey immediately turned around and looked at me. "Leo Malfoy!" Madam Pomfrey said running over to me "What happened to your leg?!" I looked down and screamed. My right leg had turned tomato red and was swelled up incredibly. Parvati took it more horrific than me and fainted on the spot. "What's with children these days?!" Madam Pomfrey murmured picking up the unconscious Parvati in her arms. I held onto walls and bed railings and managed to make it onto the second bed.

Pomfrey laid Parvati onto the third bed and went over to the cupboards to take out a bucket of ice cold water. I looked at the first bed and saw a fourth year Slytherin with dark blonde hair and her dark brown marbly eyes which was staring at the ceiling. Her mouth was slightly open and she didn't seem to move at all. "What happened to her, Madam Pomfrey?" I asked.

"Oh!" Madam Pomfrey said looking where my eyes were "Poor Renee Milyen went into shock when she found 5 spiders in her sheets this morning. From what I've heard, her Boggart takes form of a spider". I looked at her and my eyes fell on Parvati. "Will Parvati be alright?"

"Yes, dearie" she replied "Patil is not the first one to pass out this year.  I've already had 7  students with the same condition". Pomfrey dipped her hand into the bucket of water and sprayed it onto Parvati. She kept the bucket back in the cupboard and came over to me. "Did you fall off anywhere recently, Malfoy?" Pomfrey asked examining my leg.

I scanned through the memory and remembered me tripping yesterday from the stairs, right before bed. I nodded; "I actually did, yesterday". "Where you must have tripped, Peeves must have step up something funny". I smiled at looked at Parvati's body; it was the first time I was happy since the rumors. At something completely useless.
