Airous seemed to always get sick. That's why Airous' mom would force him to take vitamins during the harsh winters. But since her tragic accident Airous stopped taking them. Which lead him to tonight, rejecting how he threw away his mothers ways.
Airous stood outside the big arched doors that lead into the hospital wing. It was past midnight. He leaned on the cool doors for a few minutes trying to catch his breath which where coming out in small puffs.His eyes were sunk slightly in and heavy bags lay under them. He didn't get much sleep in the past few nights thanks to his coughing. His face was pale and feverish. Being sick and having to walk to the infirmary sucked!
He cover his mouth and coughed hard into his hand for a moment. When he looked down there was two small blood splatters on his palm. He wiped them away on his black P.J. pants and hurried into the hospital wing before he passed out.
It was almost empty. There was one or two beds that where occupied with a sleeping student infected with a cold or the flu. He didn't see the nurse anywhere. Airous needed to lay down though before he's knees gave way. So he laid down on the nearest bed available.
Airous closed his eyes and tried to make his body relax while he waited for the nurse to notice that he was there. However after a few minutes no one came over to check on him. Airous started to wonder if there was anyone there so he sat up and looked around.

It was way later than Shaylyn wanted to be awake but for some reason she couldn’t sleep. It was the new environment and new people that she couldn’t get used to. She had only been at Durmstrang maybe a week but it still seemed so foreign, so much so that she didn’t feel comfortable here. She would have brewed herself a sleeping potion which was what she had been doing for the past few nights, but doing that every night had exhausted her supply of ingredients and therefore had to ask the nurse to brew one for her. She hated asking people to brew her potions that she was perfectly capable of brewing herself but this was a special circumstance: it was past midnight, and she had class tomorrow.
So she made her way towards the Hospital Wing, her bunny slippers making a soft shuffling sound with each step. Tonight she wore black baggy sweat pants, a black spaghetti strap tank top, and she was wrapped up in a bright pink fuzzy blanket. It was too cold in these hallways to walk without being covered in some way. It seemed to take forever for her to get to the Hospital Wing but when she finally did she was surprised to see there were some people actually there. Three beds were already taken up by sick students, two were sleeping but one seemed to be awake and waiting for someone, the nurse she presumed. Sitting down on a bed nearish to the boy who was awake she smiled. [pink]Hey, um, is the nurse around anywhere? [/pink] She asked in case the nurse had already seen him and he was just awake. [pink]I’m Shaylyn by the way. And you are? [/pink]

Airous heard the soft sound of someone walking into the wing. When he looked up he saw a girl in bunny slippers and wrapped in a pink blanket. Airous knew that it was cold tonight but seeing her wrapped in the blanket made him chuckle inside. She looked tired. Airous wondered why she was up here. She should be in bed.
Airous shifted when she walked to a near by bed. He hadnt really talked to anyone in durmstrang. He just...didn't open up easly. When she asked him about the nurse he shock his head no. "I'm Airous. Nice to meet you." he said in a soft voice. Airous was getting worried now. Where was the nurse?
Airous looked down at his hands not wanting to make eye contact. He felt weird trying to talk to this girl. He hadn't talked to anyone in the school before unless he had too. He knew he came off shy but that's just how he was.

Shaylyn hadn’t really talked to anyone at Durmstrang so far. Maybe a passing student or two but no one really wanted to stop and have a conversation with her. This boy, Airous as he said his name was, seemed to be another one of those people. The ones that would say hi because she did and then continue on with their business like they didn’t even see her before. Shaylyn hated when that happened, and lately, it had been happening a lot.
She sighed, lying across the bed widthwise so that her head hung off the other side. Why couldn’t she sleep? She felt tired, exhausted actually, but she would lay there with her eyes closed for hours and not get anywhere with it. Sitting up, she looked around the room. Was the nurse even in the general proximity? Had she fallen asleep? Did she just leave and not care that there were two new sick (ish in her case) students that needed her help. This annoyed her.
[pink]So, Airous…since we’ll be here for a while….[/pink] She said, sitting crosslegged in the middle of her bed. [pink]What brings you to the Hospital Wing? Are you sick? [/pink]

Airous coughed in his hands again noticing the slight amount of blood that he whipped onto his pants. He was like this. Shy because of his past. He didn't mean to be rude or come off as rude it just took some time to get to know him. He hoped that she didn't think he was ignoring her on purpose. He had seen her before in the halls and she seemed nice.
Airous watched as the girl tossed and turned on the bed. "if your having trouble sleeping....you should try warm milk." he said softly. When he couldn't sleep that was what his mother use to give him. Now a days he lays in bed wishing she was still here to help him.
Airous nodded yes to answer her question and coughed once more. "I'm always sick though." he shrugged.

((OMG IM SO SORRY I FORGOT ABOUT YOU AGAIN! I ALWAYS SEEM TO DO THAT! DONT HATE ME  )) Shaylyn noticed Airous coughing. She felt bad for him, he seemed to be pretty sick. It wouldn’t be too hard for her to mix up a simple coughing potion for him, but she didn’t want to get in trouble with the nurse if she were to get caught. It wouldn’t be a very good impression to be making so early in the year. As she was rolling around uncomfortably on the bed, Airous suggested she drink warm milk to help her sleep. [pink] Oh, I’m way past the warm milk stage. I’ve been taking sleeping potions for the past week or so since I got here. I just ran out of supplies to make my own, so I thought I’d ask the nurse to make me some. I’ll be sleeping on my own soon enough; just need to get used to my new surround…..ings. [/pink] She said with a large yawn interrupting her last word. |

Airous took a few deep breaths as he seemed to get his coughing slowly under control. He wondered what he started his coughing in the first place. Though he already knew the answer to that. He looked up at the clock on the wall to see what time it was. He had already been sitting there for fifteen minutes and the nurse hadn't even bothered to see if anyway was in the room. He wondered where the nurse was.
Airous listened to her and nodded slowly. He wondered if she was allowed to make potions without a professor consent. "Well, I hope you can sleep soon." he said gently as she yawned. "You do look tired. What do you usually do when you can't sleep?" he asked wondering what she would do. He would probably read or doddle. But there wasn't much to do other than homework which he tried to avoid doing.
