clara layed down on the uncomfortable hospital bed and just stared up at the ceiling. she hardly even remembered getting attacked by that werewolf. she had been assigned to assassin a werewolf, one of those werewolves that followed greyback. the werewolf was basically taking muggle children from their beds at night and killing them, even when it wasn't the full moon. he was just taking them from their beds at night for his own pleasure in torturing kids and teens. she had got him and trapped him but when she took out her wand everything went wrong. she looked away for a split second and the next second she blacked out. thankfully a passerby saw the werewolf attacking her and they attacked him and killed him. when she woke up the only thing she had wanted to know was if the werewolf was killing. the nurses had looked at her like she was crazy, of course they would, clara cared more about the kids that would get hurt if the guy wasn't killed than herself.
nobody knew who to contact about clara getting hurt. she wasn't terribly hurt, just hurt enough that she had to spend some days in st. mungo's. she wasn't a werewolf and wouldn't have any werewolf abilities, she would just have scars on her face for some time, but they would eventually go away with time. the hospital contacted bastian, her best friend. anybody who went to hogwarts knew that her and bastian were best friends and they probably knew that he was in love with her but she wasn't.
ooc. this sucks.

Panic and fear was all Bastien felt as he went to St. Mungos. He even continued to feel it until he reached her room. It did not matter that the Healers told him that she was alright. All that mattered was Bastien seeing for himself. He had to. He would not leave until he did and luckily he did not have any classes for some time so he had more than enough time to do so. On top of that he informed the Headmaster that he would be needing a few days off to take care of Clara. It did not matter if Clara would reject his help, he was going to be giving it to her. It was not just that he was in love with her, actually, it was that but it was also because she meant the world to him. She was his best friend, had been since Hogwarts. After a few minutes of talking to the Nurses, Bastien was allowed into the room. A sigh of relief instantly escaped him as he saw she was not terribly injured, but still he rushed over to her side with a slight frown, Are you alright Clare? Please, please tell me you’re alright. The worry was evident and shined in Bastien’s eyes as he looked down at the injured blonde.
outfit - - - clicky notes - - - its fine! better than mine. sorry for the shortness/crappiness, will get better. PROMISE!

clara closed her eyes, hoping to get some sleep. she was going to be going to work later in the day although her boss was going to refuse her to work today and probably for the rest of the week, but she wanted to work. she needed to work extra shifts for the money. money was always tight with clara and her family. not extremely tight but they always managed to get by. are you alright clare? please, please tell me you’re alright. clara's eyes opened as soon as she heard the voice of her best friend. clara had never really had any romantic feelings towards bastian, ever. of course there was first year when she thought that he was good looking but that doesn't count. it was only puppy love and it didn't matter. clara saw herself as being the best friend of bastian, nothing more...
"i'm fine, i'm fine." but it was clearly obvious that she wasn't 'fine'. she tried to sit up but couldn't. she had pain running all throughout her body. clara had heard the healers talking when they thought that she was asleep about how badly hurt she was. she tried not to listen she blocked that out of her memory until now. she needed to be able to work and help the marauders. she loved helping them and what they stood for. she also needed to work, without work she wouldn't be able to be on her own and help herself. "seriously, bastian. i am fine, just a couple bruises...." the tone of her voice wasn't that confident she just hoped that bastian didn't hear it. she hated sounding weak and right now she sounded weak. "and scratches, i didn't get hurt that badly..." she looked away from him and looked at her hands which were currently busy playing the the thin blanket that laid on top of her. it was suppose to be for warmth but it didn't do much.

a scowl appeared on bastien’s face as he responded in a slightly sharp tone. they are not just bruises and scratches clare. they are serious, you’re lucky. but your wounds are not okay, i want you to take at least one sick day.. the moment clara started trying to get up, he gently pushed her down for her to rest while continuing to say, its obvious you are in pain clare, do not get up unless you have to, i know you too well. do not try to fool me. as he looked about the room he noted it lacked a homey feeling or much of anything at all other than sterile whiteness. it made bastien scowl even more, but luckily he remembered to bring a few things from home.
taking out a plush, navy blue blanket he placed it over the thin blanket while saying, we grew up together clare, do not try to fool me. i know you like the back of my hand. after gently tucking clara into the bed, bastien took out a small box of sweets that had a honeyduke’s label on it. placing it onto the side table bastien continued on with his scolding tone, what were you doing in the first place? fighting a werewolf, clare you of all people should know how strong a were is. even if you know the proper spells, they are still extremely dangerous. taking in the rest of the room, bastien sighed softly before continuing, clare, i know you too well to know that you feel weak right, but you aren’t weak. you’re quite strong, not everyone could withstand a were attack and survive. just… just, next time be prepared before doing anything like that.

bastian's words hurt clara, they really did. she might now have shown it but they really did hurt her emotionally. for a moment there she showed that he had hurt her with his words. but it left as soon as it came. clara didn't like to be seen as weak, she hated to have her weaknesses shown. and one of them is when people talk to her like the way bastian just did; like he was disappointed in her. she sighed sadly at his many comments about how he knew her more than anyone and that she wasn't just 'fine'. "i know... i know..." she got herself busy by playing with the side of the navy blue blanket which actually did a lot to the room since the whole room was pasty white colored.
clara just stayed silent and watched bastian talk. it hurt her a lot on the inside, it still did, but she kept it in. later it would all come out when he left and she might start crying. "i know." she said with a slight edge in her voice.

sighing softly, bastien ran his fingers through his raven hair, i'm sorry, just…you're too important to me clare. he was well aware of how he had just made clara feel. it made him feel horrible, guilty really. but he could not help it. he was in love with her and if he lost her, it would hurt him. it would make him feel as though he lost a piece of him. rather than talking some more, bastien instead sat down in a nearby chair. he had no words that clara had not already heard and there was no point in repeating it, especially since he heard the edge and hurt in clara's voice.
sighing, yet again, bastien casually said, so, did i tell you i got a few days off? he hoped it did not seem like he had taken those days off just to take care of her, which he did but it was necessary for clare to know; especially since clara seemed already hurt over bastien's over-protectiveness.

clara nodded at what he said. if she was in the same situation that he was then she would be beyond angry at him for putting himself in danger. "i'll be sure to be careful next time, okay?" clara stared at her fingers which were now ripping at the loose threads in the thin, white blanket. she didn't want to look at bastian and see the hurt and disappointment in his eyes like she had seen so many times before in other people. clara would sit up but she ws in so much pain right now that she could barley move. the nurse had given her a potion but it hadn't kicked in yet and probably wasn't going to anytime soon.
the first thing that clara thought about when he told her that he got some days off was if he had gotten them off because of her and because he wanted to take care of her. "for me? to take care of me? bastian, you shouldn't have." clara thought about how it would be nice to have just a couple of days like old times with bastian. he was so busy with work and she was so busy with work, also. they got to see each other but not as much as they hoped.

sighing softly bastien looked at clara before saying, you better be clare, i cannot loose you. you're my best friend. grabbing the nearby chair he placed it next to clara's bed as replied calmly, yes for you and i needed to clare. you're my best friend, you know how i feel, you know what you mean to me. if i cannot take of you when you're ill then when am i supposed to take care of you? it was not just about taking care of clara, no it was more that he wanted to and was raised to take care of the one's he loved or to at least try. if he did not try then it means that the love felt for another person may not be real and what bastien felt for clare was real.
it was very real, to the point he did not even bother dating anyone. sure he had girlfriends in the past, but nowadays all he could do was think of clara. sure he had friends, guy friends really, telling him he should get over clare. but he could not. she needed him and he intended on taking care of her to the best of his abilities which was why most girls often told him that he was a lot like a prince charming; always protecting and caring for a girl, no matter how they treated him.

clara sighed, she knew what she meant to bastian and he knew what he meant to her. without him she would have nobody. her father left her and her mother after cheating on her mother. there was a lot of drama and words that didn't need to be said, but they were. she didn't have any siblings that she liked, she had half siblings but they don't count. she's never spoken to them, not even once. she doesn't care to. without bastian she would literaly have nobody. she left all of her friends except for bastian when she left hogwarts. they just lost touch and they went on to bigger things while she went to work for the maruaders and for the three broomsticks. it wasn't something that she always wanted. she actually had wanted to be an auror or work for the ministry. she had had big dreams once.
"if it's what you want." she sighed, she really didn't like the idea of having to depend on him to take care of her. she actually didn't like the idea of having to depend on anyone. "i don't think the healers would mind, though. a patient they don't have to keep a close eye on." clara is the kind of person when in the hospital will try and go adventuring. she'll need a close eye on so she doesn't hurt herself again. "thanks for being here... mum.. had work..." her mother actually didn't have work, she hasn't talked to her mother since she was eighteen. she's wanted to, but couldn't force herself to. bastian would know that she was lying, she always lied to herself about her mother. she wanted to talk herself into thinking that her and her mother were perfectly fine when really they weren't.

bastien was too well aware of clara and her independent personality. what else he knew was that she was the type to get into trouble with the healers due to her rather adventurous personality. but it was because of this he loved her. he admired her and felt the need to prove her wrong, to show that she could depend on someone and that trust will not be broken. that was his goal, but for now friendship was enough.
sighing softly he said, i know you don't really want me here, but you know the way i am. but as soon as he said this he quickly changed the topic, so, have you gotten anything to eat? i don't mind getting something for you. but as soon as the question was asked he heard clara talk of her mother. it was an iffy topic, one he knew he would never egg on. so instead of adding anything he just nodded and continued with the food topic, have the healer's said anything about you not being allowed to eat anything in particular? being well aware of how clara was he learned to quickly change topics.

clara only wanted friendship. she didn't want love or even to experience for a short time. she didn't want to go through what her mother went through. although, deep, very deep on the inside she wanted to fall in love with the most perfect guy, have kids with him and to live happily ever after. well, not in those exact words but she wanted to fall in love with the perfect guy. she just won't admit it, even to herself. she's thought about finding the perfect person for her, but she's doubted that she'd ever find the right guy for her, so she stopped thinking about it.
"i just woke up, i haven't eaten." why did she bring her mother into the conversation? clara didn't even know why she had bothered to bring it up. she knew that bastian was just going to change the subject because of how clara is and has always been. "uh, nothing that i know of. i'm not hungry anyway, you don't have to go through the trouble of getting me food." clara is a very independant person, she's been like that since her father left her and her mother which was awhile ago. she's always been the way she is; very independant.

as a child from a rather cheerful and happy family, bastien knew from the beginning it was what he wanted. to be a father and a husband, but the one he wanted to have this sort of relationship was not up for it. anyone who met bastien knew that he craved this sort of relationship, but they also knew the one he loved. however she did not return those feelings, but being her friend was enough. as long as he was apart of her life was more than enough.
its no trouble and when you get hungry, just tell me. it means less stress for me and the nurses. it was not a bother, not for bastien any way. he always felt the need to care for the ones he loved and though clara did not return those feelings, it did not mean he would care any less for her.
but he knew clara's independent personality, something she had since he could remember. it was something he was amazed by, but wished that she would learn that being dependent did not make her weak. however he knew clara too well and so he never pushed her.

clara smiled faintly, she really just wanted to forget all about her father and him leaving her and her mother in the dust as if they never meant something to him. she wanted to believe in love again, she once did but that was when she was very young and also believed in fairy tales and santa clause. clara had to grow up fast so fantasies were erased from her mind and she focused on more important things, like keeping her mother safe. after her father left her mother was a complete wreck. she went into a spiral of depression. clara had to watch over her whenever she was at home and when she went off to school she would hire someone to take care of the house but really it was clara could keep a close eye on her mother without actually being there. having someone keep an eye on her mother didn't relieve the stress she had during hogwarts, she still worried more than a little girl should.
clara knew about how much bastian wanted to have a loving wife and nice kids, she wanted to believe in love again. she wanted it but she didn't believe in it. something that clara didn't know was that bastian was in love with her. she was always very oblivious when it came to people fancying her, always. clara was going to frown when he said that it would be no problem but she didn't want to start an argument, not now and not with her best friend. "if you say so, i guess i am getting a bit hungry now." she bit down on her lip, she hadn't noticed a small thing like being hungry. she wasn't being very noticeable of her surroundings.
"just. don't get anything gross. half of it is gross, but find something that at least looks the least bit edible." clara smiled at bastian, the first time she had smiled all day. it was because of bastian, he made her smile and feel better about everything. he's her best friend and her only friend, that's what they're there for, right?
