sick?

Severus's POV

I wake up to the familiar sound of Arthur and Ric vomiting for the third day in a row. I sigh, already worried.
"Are you sure you don't want to go see Madam Pomfrey? I'm really concerned about you both," I say, standing and walking over to them.
"We're sure," Ric says weakly. "But if we throw up again tomorrow, we'll go."
"That does help, thank you," I reply, though my worry doesn't fade.

Time skip to the next morning

Enrico's POV

I wake up curled between Art and Luc, but the sudden need to puke hits me hard. I push myself up, groggy and uneasy. I feel Art stirring beside me.

The nausea gets worse, and I barely make it to the bathroom before vomiting again. Art rushes in right after me.

Time skip — later that day

I slowly open my eyes, blinking against the soft light. I'm somewhere unfamiliar — the hospital wing. Panic flutters in my chest.

I turn my head to see Sev sitting beside me, his face a mix of relief and concern.
"Ric! Are you okay?" he asks gently.
"W-what happened? Why am I here?" I croak.
"You threw up again this morning," Sev explains softly, "and you fainted when Art went into the bathroom."

Just then, Madam Pomfrey enters, followed by the others. Her eyes soften as she looks down at me.
"Enrico, I have something to tell you..."
