"Can I call you Tori? You know Tori, I'm a great friend."
"I don't get it, why are you being nice to me?"
"Maybe I don't want to see you friendless."

"She's not just going to wake up."
"I said please!"
"It doesn't work like that!"
Tori's eyes were shut as she slowly began to awake. She didn't know where she was or how long she was out. She heard voices, a couple of them, and tried to match a face to each voice but, it was a bit difficult. The room felt cold, and Tori could feel she was laying in something.
"Hey! You two. If you don't cut it out, I'm going to bash your heads together so hard, you'll be lying in one of these beds." Okay, that was Mae.
"That seems a bit harsh, Mae." Charlie.
"I'd pay to watch that." Lee.
"Madam Pomfrey said she would be up today. So she should be waking up!" Fred.
"Mr. Weasley! If I have to keep kicking you out I will forbid you coming in here for the rest of the year!" Tori didn't recognize this voice.
"What if I'm hurt?"
"Enough! Ms. Silvers needs her rest!"
"I'm pretty sure she's had enough of that." George.
"Oi! Shut it! She's moving." Mae again.
Tori slowly gained just enough energy to open her eyes. She looked up to see a ton of faces circling around her. Mae, Charlie, Alicia, Angelina, Lee, and the twins all smiled at her.
"Rise and shine, sleepyhead." Mae grinned, stepping back so Madam Pomfrey could fuss over Tori. Tori tried to raise her head, but everyone quickly pushed her down.
"Don't raise your head dear. It still needs to finish healing." Tori looked around blankly at the room and everyone in it. If she was correct... this was the hospital wing.
"Victoria, can you name the people here?" Madam Pomfrey looked at Tori's friends. Tori weakly nodded, "Mae, Charlie, Angelina, Alicia, Lee, Fred... wait no, George, and Fred."
"Very good, here drink this." Tori was handed a vial of green juice, she didn't want to think what was in it as she scarfed it down. "All of you, sit."
Her friends took a seat but Charlie and Mae kept standing. "We'll be back, we have to go schedule something." The two of them left with a wave.
"Do you remember what happened?" Angelina asked, helping Tori become comfortable. Tori shut her eyes, thinking back. She remembered the screaming crowd and Lee's shouts about nonsense. "I remember... scoring and someone yelling at me, then I..."
"Was hit by a bludger that your bloody brother hit at you," Fred muttered angrily, Tori looked at him, confused. The rest of the group look a bit uncomfortable.
Tori only laughed bitterly, staring at the ceiling above. "Of course." She sighed. "Why am I not surprised?" Alicia patted Tori on the arm out of sympathy.
