Harry wanted to start talking when Poppy came in with the potions.

"Breakfast is coming soon, but only here are your potions. You will probably have to take the nutrient potion for a while longer. I'll also set you up with a detailed nutritional plan to get your weight back to normal as soon as possible. "

Harry nodded and swallowed his medicine and tried not to forgive. What he failed miserably with the bone wax. The stuff tasted really exactly as it sounded!

Both Poppy and Snape had to smile at the sight. The two feathered viewers, however, looked at the boy rather sympathetically.

"Why, Harry, where is your standard saying? Or do not you dare to say it because Professor Snape is here? "

The boy was reddish to this question and found his hands again very interesting. But that was also embarrassing, hopefully Poppy at least had the decency not to tell his professor what exactly she meant.

"You know, Severus, usually Harry always says after taking and quoting literally 'By Merlin, I swear I'm going to marry the one who manages to make those potions less hideous.'"

"POPPY!!!"

He did not believe that now! She actually said it. Could nurses even embarrass their patients?

The terrified exclamation of the embarrassed teenager aroused a laugh at Poppy and even Snape could not prevent the corners of his mouth from pulling upwards. However, the merriment of the two made sure that Harry made his threat from before but now and he escaped under the covers. But this reaction of the boy had only the effect that the mediwitch laughed even louder and the potions master could not hold back his amusement any longer. The whole thing was too cute.

Fawkes and Hedwig were the only ones who behaved like adults. The two of them did not find it funny that someone embarrassed their protégé, and so they looked at the two humans with reproachful bird eyes.

After calming these two cackling chickens, the phoenix gently rested its beak on the head of the person lying under the blanket. He started to ruffle at the fabric to get the boy to reappear.

Hedwig, meanwhile, had been tugging at the ceiling with her claws to free her confidant.

This approach was observed fascinated by the other two. It was just unbelievable how these animals behaved towards the boy. One could almost feel that one saw two parents caring for their child, or chick.

A short time later, the efforts also had an effect. Harry came out from under his protective cover and looked pouting at the nurse.

Then he looked at his teacher.

"Can you believe this woman used to be in Hufflepuff?"

"I wondered about that during my school days."

Poppy could only laugh about it again. Yes, even the headmaster had often meant that the talking hat would have made a mistake in their classification.

At that moment one heard the characteristic pop, indicating the arrival of a house elf. Moments later, Dobby saw a tray, with a light breakfast on it, placed on the dessert next to Harry. Before he turned to this.

"Mr. Potter, sir! What happened to you? Why are you hurt, and why are you so small? Can Dobby do something for Mr. Potter, sir? "

"Hello, Dobby, nice to see you. Because of my size. How should I say this is my real look and yes I got hurt. That's why I do not like it when you hurt yourself. Do you understand?"

"Dobby understands and Dobby promises not to hurt herself anymore. Here, Mr. Potter, sir, Dobby brought you breakfast. "

"Thank you Dobby, that's nice of you. Please you can also bring something to eat for Fawkes and Hedwig. The two really deserve to be spoiled. "
