Hermione saw Kris fall asleep and then heard a heavy sigh from Syne. It appeared that she, too, had fallen asleep, leaving her the only conscious being in the room. Sighing herself, she took a seat in a comfortable seat behind a desk and began reading a book about plant remedies.

Syne jerked herself awake just in time to keep from falling forward onto Mel. 'she would really thank me for that' she thought to herself. She then instead kicked off her slide on loafers and streched out on the cot next to Mel. Syne lay on her side facing her twin but oddly enough now that she had laid down she found she wasn't sleepy. Thoughts chased themselves around in her mind until she thought she would be driven mad by them. So she sat back up and pulled a her notebook, quill and ink. Placing the inkbottle on the bedside table she began to write to Ares.

Hermione's eyes flickered up as she saw movement. She smiled warmly at Syne as she began her letter, and then buried herself back in her book. Now that she thought about it, she should probably write to Ron to see how his job was going, since Harry didn't appear to be on the face of this Earth for the time being.

Kris's eyes flickered open and he looked about, wondering what had happened to him. Then he moved his leg and pain shot through it as a reminder. His eyes darted over to Mel and he wondered how long she would have to suffer for this mishap. He slowly sat up and took the pitcher of water that was beside his bed on the stand and poured himself a glass, taking a large swig of cool water and placing the pitcher back on the table as he did so.

Hearing someone moving about Syne looked up and realized that it was time for History of Magic. In fact she was going to be late. Stuffing her quill, ink and Paper quickly back into her bag she rushed out of the infirmary and down to the History of Magic classroom.

Hermione looked up to see Kris take a swig of water and Syne rush out of the hospital wing, apparently in a hurry. Shrugging, she decided to abandon her magazine for a few minutes. "Need any more lotion on that leg?" she asked the boy, whose name she was unsure of.

"Yes please." He nodded to the nurse. "I just realised I don't know your name. I'm Kristoff Bergstrom and yes I am Millie's brother." He sighed seeing as that was the one thing people seemed determined not to let him forget though sometimes he really wished they would.

Hermione walked over to the desk, where she had left the lotion and screwed open the lid, before walking back over to Kris and applying it to the sore area. She smiled as he introduced himself as the potions mistress' brother. "I'm Hermione Granger, you can call me Hermione if you like. It must be difficult, what with your sister being a teacher and all. I'm glad both my parents are dentists." she remarked.

"Yes well I come from a long line of Order Members and Sucessful Wizards and Witches and they all want me to be like them. My sister would love for me to follow in her foot steps and My father is demanding that I follow in his.:" Kris frowned. "I am the only boy in our family so alot more is placed on my shoulders then you could imagine. My father is the Head Auror as well as an Order Member so I am expected to get good enough grades to ensure I become an Auror as well. Then after I leave training I am to become an Order Member, which I would not have minded had I been given the choice. But to have my life planned out for me? Well lets just say I plan to kink that plan as quickly as possible by becoming a Quidditch player."

Hermione nodded as she listened to Kris's story, which was quite a familiar one. Before she had gotten the letter, her parents had wanted her to follow in their footsteps, which put a lot of academic and emotional pressure on her. She never seemed to do well enough for them, and it disappointed her to no end. That's why she wanted to better herself by studying, she didn't want to fail them. In the end though, she was lucky enough to have received the letter, and to her surprise, her parents were not disappointed. To the contrary, they were proud of their daughter. That was one of the first times Hermione felt that she had truly succeded.
"I know it's hard, but you have to choose your own future, not let anyone else do it for you. If I'd followed in my parents' footesteps, I'd probably end up looking in people's mouths all day, instead of helping students recover. Like a wise mentor used to say, the choices we make, make us who we are." explained Hermione. She hadn't heard the exact quote, but she knew what Dumbledore had told Harry in second year. It was, in her opinion, a very wise thing to keep in mind. "So if you want to be a Professional Quidditch Player, then do it. It beats being stuck in a job you hate."

Kris nodded. "Exactly but try explaining that to my father.' He grimaced but not in pain and looked about himself. "So how long do you think I'll be in here?" He asked. He knew it would not be nearly as long as Mels stay but it would be over night atleast and that was a minimum in his mind.

Hermione grimaced as he mentioned his father again, she imagined him to be one of those difficult parents who never listens to a thing because they think they're always right, that they have their chilndren's "best interests" in sight. Sighing as she heard his question, she stared rather absent-mindedly at the wound. "Overnight, at least. If it's better tomorrow, I'll let you go then. That sound okay?"

Kris nodded while stifling another yawn. "Well I think I'll go back to sleep now." He said as he laid back down. "Thanks for listening to my ramblings." He said almost sympathetically. He had not meant to go off about his family but he just felt at ease with this woman and was not afraid that it would get back to Millie with her.
