Della Bush's Love Story

Madam Pomfrey was arranging the medicine cabinet when she heard a knock on the door, and when she went out, she saw an "acquaintance".

Della Bush of Gryffindor.

Since she entered school, she has gone to the medical wing to pick up medicine once a week, with the reason that "I don't feel well."

Ordinary children are afraid to drink potions, and the taste of potions is all kinds of strange, not to mention their potions professor at Hogwarts...doesn't understand the taste of children at all. In his words, "If they are afraid of It would be better to use the taste of the potion and reduce the frequency of troubles."

But Della Bush has had a bad sense of taste since first grade.

But she wasn't trying to be sick.

Madam Pomfrey had seen many children go to great lengths to pretend to be ill - Gryffindor at first.They will not be afraid of the scary taste of the potion, as long as they drink the potion, they can skip class or do homework, this deal is too good!

When encountering such children who pretend to be sick and want to skip class, she will give them the strangest and scariest medicines, and it is best to scare them so that they dare not come back again.

Then let them finish their drink and go to class.

She used to think Della was like this too, so she poured her the worst digestive potion ever, which was also made by Severus, who thought it would be effective in suppressing appetite.

There are always students in school who don’t know how much they should eat and their stomachs are full. There are too many sweets on the table. She has protested to the principal many times, but the principal still thinks that the children should be full. The best way to get kids to love school and not be afraid of it is to have lots and lots of the food they like, whether it's ice cream or fried chicken or chips, cake, cookies, chocolate.

She often felt that the Hogwarts dining hall was less like a school cafeteria and more like an amusement park.

Della drank the potion--from the look on her face, she thought it was awful, too--but she relaxed and looked different when it was done.Then she ran off to class by herself.

Madam Pomfrey had many patients in her care, and she had seen all sorts of strange ailments.She felt Della was dependent on potions.

She is not dependent on a single potion, but on all potions.In other words, she doesn't mind what kind of potion she drinks, as long as it's a potion.

She regards the potion as an elixir for all kinds of trials. When she is in a bad mood or encounters other problems, if she drinks the potion once, she will immediately feel full of energy and all diseases will disappear.

She told both Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall that they were surprised because Della looked perfectly healthy and her family didn't look like there was a problem.

How could she have such a serious mental illness-this is still the illness in the Muggle book that Headmaster Dumbledore read.

Muggles believe that people's minds can also be sick, and they have many strange names for mental illnesses.

Dumbledore asked Professor McGonagall to keep an eye on Della secretly, and then asked Severus to make a placebo for Della just for her.

——It doesn't contain any potion ingredients, it's just purely undrinkable.

In the past four years, Severus had made the potions for Della so that people would gag just by smelling them.But Della still drank happily.

Pomfrey told Severus that Della had equated "a potion that sucks to drink" with "a potion that works wonders".In her opinion, the uglier the medicine, the better the medicine.

Therefore, it is impossible to use bad potions to get Della to get rid of the habit of drinking potions.

— Severus was furious.

Madam Pomfrey sighed, took Della's special potion bottle from the medicine cabinet, and poured her a cup, "This is a new medicine, you will have a strange reaction after drinking it." Della didn't care about it at all, She took the glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Then her face turned a little blue.

—It must be very hard to drink.Severus was angry.

Madam Pomfrey looked at her sympathetically, "How do you feel now?" Della only felt relieved, she was shivering in the rain just now, but now she didn't feel uncomfortable, she returned the cup to Pomfrey Madam, "Thank you, I feel much better." Madam Pomfrey stared at her face with wide eyes, seeing that she was about to leave, she hurriedly held her back: "You...you go and look in the mirror..."

She really didn't expect Severus to do this!

Della went to the next bathroom to look in the mirror in confusion.

She froze in front of the mirror.

The mirror said cheerfully, "Oh! Your face is so blue!"

She turned into an Avatar.

She came out of the bathroom to see Madam Pomfrey, and there was another person in the hospital wing, Professor Snape, who looked at her with malicious pleasure in his eyes, and said in a mocking way: "Oh, it might be me. Put more lavender."

Della covered her face, dazed: "...Then what should I do?" She saw Mrs. Pomfrey hit Professor Snape hard, making him change his words when he was about to say them.

Professor Snape: "I'll make another medicine tonight, you can come and get it tomorrow morning."

Della had no choice but to go back like this. She turned around and went out, but there was a group of people running towards here at the other end of the corridor.

She hurried out of the way, and saw Hufflepuff and Gryffindor in the uniform of the Quidditch team, as well as many spectators in the stands, as well as Principal Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall.

They were carrying a man, Harry.

Hermione's eyes were swollen from crying, her face was pale, and she followed closely beside the stretcher, with Ron on the other side.The two of them put aside their previous grievances at this time, and both were worried about Harry.

Della left early just now, not knowing what happened.Now it looked like Harry had fallen.

She squeezed in worried too—the first guy was staring at her face as she pushed past.

She felt that she could start to look forward to a new nickname.

Madam Pomfrey hurriedly examined Harry, just as Professor Snape was there, surrounded by the professors, and the students were standing outside.

Madam Pomfrey breathed a sigh of relief. The wand examination showed that Harry had just passed out. I heard that he fell from a height of [-] feet, and he looked fine now.

Dumbledore asked, "How is Harry, Bobby?" Madam Pomfrey said, "Fortunately, he has some scrapes and got caught in the rain, but he just passed out and didn't break himself."

There was a chorus of relief in the hospital wing, and Fred and George clapped their hands together, and he looked back, quickly darting across Hermione and Della standing behind her - then back again, staring at her without moving. .

She looked over and nodded to him.

Yes, you are right.

Fred's expression seemed to be stepped on by a troll. He shook George, and the two looked over together.

Well, they've all been trampled by trolls.

They started arguing in low voices, all looking blank, recalling, and thinking.

Headmaster Dumbledore said: "Everyone, Harry is all right, we are glad. Now you all go back, the Quidditch team can stay." His eyes swept across all the students, and he fixed Della with perfect precision. He glanced at it—the eyeballs had gotten bigger—and looked quickly at Professor Snape.

Professor Snape felt it, and turned his head in disgust at her, "I'll make medicine when I get back at night."

Headmaster Dumbledore looked away.

Hermione sniffed loudly.

Della comforted her: "Don't worry, Harry is fine."

Hermione turned her head: "Yeah, I was really worried just now... ah!!!" She jumped up in fright and stepped on Ron's foot.

Ron groaned in pain, then looked up.

Now everyone in the hospital wing saw Della's blue face.

Silent.

Ron beamed, then turned his gaze to his twin brother.

The Gryffindors all looked over, showing suddenly enlightened, followed by puzzled expressions.

Fred came over with a pale face and pulled her to run out, stammering and explaining to her nervously: "I swear... I never used any prank on you!"

It was only then that Della realized what everyone had misunderstood just now. She nodded, "Of course I know, this is the aftereffect of my drinking the potion. Don't worry, I didn't misunderstand you."

But at night, the most eye-catching thing at the Gryffindor table is not Harry who was injured and entered the hospital wing, but Della who was "pranked by her boyfriend".

Yes, Fred was still misunderstood by the whole school.Everyone thought he had changed the color of Della's face.

If it was normal, Fred might cooperate with everyone to make fun of it, but today Gryffindor lost more than 100 points. It can be said that they have missed the House Cup. Their hope of winning is that Hufflepuff beats Slytherin by [-] points .

……

This wish is not easy to achieve.

Harry was still in the hospital wing.Hermione sat down with Ron, both worried about Harry.

They finally got together.

Hermione apologized and said that she didn't pay more attention to the conflict between the two pets. Since she knew that cats are naturally catching mice, she should take care of Crookshanks.

Ron also confessed that he didn't know why Scabbers disappeared, maybe Crookshanks didn't eat it, although there was only one cat in Gryffindor who was hostile to Scabbers...

In short, the two reconciled.They made an appointment to see Harry together tomorrow.

Della suspects that Ron is finally relieved because he thinks her face is Fred's revenge for him.

But she decided to keep it a secret.Hermione valued these two friends, and there was something - it was the Iron Triangle, after all - that they had some secrets, which made Hermione closer to Harry and Ron at times.

She could talk to Hermione about girls, but she couldn't take her to save the world.

So, obviously, some things are more important.

Della saw Hermione and Ron the next morning when she went to the hospital wing, bringing presents.Harry was awake, he just had breakfast and looked fine.But he was a bit stubborn in the face of his friend's concern, and Hermione could see it, so after they just greeted briefly, she pulled Ron away on the grounds that they still had to do their homework.

Harry was worried that he would miss class, and Hermione said she would lend him the notes so he wouldn't worry.

"Here." Madam Pomfrey poured her a glass of medicine, the smell was touching, and as soon as it was poured out, Harry covered his nose and looked around, showing disbelief when he saw the glass in her hand.

Della went over with the glass, and he looked at her face and said, "What's wrong with you? Is it Fred's new prank?" She felt sad for her boyfriend.

"No, it's the aftereffect of the potion." She held up the cup in her hand, "But it should be fine after drinking this." She drank it in one gulp, it was very difficult to drink, but she could rest assured after drinking it.

What she likes most is the magic of potions, they can instantly cure people's diseases.After she came to the wizarding world, it was the thing that touched her the most.

When she was lying on the hospital bed, she always imagined that when she woke up the next morning, a new medicine would come out, which could cure her disease!Or it doesn't need to be cured, as long as the cure improves, she will be satisfied.

Of course, she didn't wait until the special medicine came out.

But she's in the wizarding world now!She had never heard of a disease that could not be cured by potions!She read a lot of magic books, all of which said that the most difficult thing to heal is the pain caused by the spell, and there is no potion that can't cure the diseases that people suffer from themselves!

Is there any better news than this?She no longer has to be afraid!

After she finished drinking, she saw Harry's surprised and weird face.

She held up her glass and said, "Magic is amazing, isn't it?"

Harry nodded, feeling deeply about this, too.

"Yes, the magic is amazing," he said in surprise. "Your face! It's back!"

She took out a small mirror and looked at it, and she looked good.She said to Harry: "Recover well, and I will come to see you tomorrow. Goodbye."

Harry waved to her, "Goodbye."
