Closed A Different Visit

In all honesty, the former Hufflepuff hadn't realised how busy the hospital wing would be. She hadn't thought about how much the kids at Hogwarts always seemed to be injured or how many students had many different medical conditions. But throughout the semester, Molly knew which ones were the regular occurrences and who to keep an eye out for more. Molly had been busy stocking up some medical potions in one of the cabinets when she heard a familiar voice enter the hospital wing and grinned. She had seen Freddie pretty much almost once a week, so his voice was a familiar one. Freddie was one of Declan's friends, and she thought the boy was nice. She placed the last potion bottle into the cabinets and closed the cabinet before heading towards Freddie with a small smile. "Hey Freddie, you feeling okay today?" Molly says with a gentle smile, ready to get to work if she needed to.

Molly was glad to see that Freddie seemed to be doing better than he had last week. It seemed like his leg seemed to go through it during what had happened last week. She had never seen Declan worried about someone before, so she knew Freddie meant a lot to Declan. Though she hadn't told Declan about the semi-regular visits that Freddie had in the hospital wing, and it wasn't her place to tell anyway. "Oh, good, I'm glad," Molly says with a grin, giggling a little as Freddie then lifts his leg up. "Yeah, it seems to be doing much better than it was before," Molly says with a grin, content with how it was looking. "I'm good, happy to see my favourite patient is doing better, though" Molly says, as she grins teasingly. She didn't mind the boy's company, though; she was quite fond of the young boy.

Molly perked up a little when Freddie said he had a question, giving him a little nod to shoot out the question he had. She smiled a little when he mentioned wanting to get her cousin a Christmas gift. "Oh, that's cool! Declan would appreciate that," Molly says with a grin. She thought for a moment about what Declan did like. "Oh, yup, he does like candy. Not the sour kind, though. Hates them" Molly starts off with a chuckle and a shake of her head, a memory popping in her head. She had given Declan a sour lolly when they were younger, and he hadn't spoken to her for like a week because he thought she was pranking him. "He absolutely loves chocolate frogs, though. They're his favourite kind. He does like skateboarding, too. Obsessed"

Molly smiled, hoping she had least Declan’s friend a little. It did make her think that maybe she should get a head on christmas shopping too if she was being honest. Gift giving was something she enjoyed. She smiled at Freddie, chuckling a little at Freddie. “Yeah skateboards are defiantly expensive. The accessories for them are expensive too” Molly said with a small smile and nod. She remembered her uncle had refused to get Declan anything else for ages because Declan had been bugging his parents for months to get him a skateboard. But Declan hadn’t minded because he was content with his skateboard after that. “Honestly, you could get him those miniature toy skateboards, and he’d be happy with that. He’ll be happy with anything you get him. Honest” Molly says with a giggle, putting her index and thumb together to mimic a miniature toy, while also reassuring Freddie.

Molly clicked her fingers together, pointing at Freddie. "Yup, you got it!" Molly says with a grin and a nod, glad that he had understood what she meant. Her grin went wider and wider as Freddie then went on about a story that had been related to one of the toy skateboards. She burst out laughing along with Freddie's giggles, imagining the scene being played in her head. "Was she mad? I would pay good money to see what her face looked like," Molly chuckled with a small smile. Molly then sent another small smile to the younger boy. "Oh, I dunno about being a genius about that. But I'm happy that I helped you in some way. Always here for ya, whether it be for your leg or just help like this in general," Molly says with a grin. The boy was pretty much a close friend of Declan. And with people who were close friends of Declan's, she'd too would be there for them, like she would be for her cousin, maybe a little softer towards them though. "Oh no, it's okay, Freddie. Spend that chocolate frog money on yourself, you deserve that"

Molly chuckled, imagining how red the teacher’s face must’ve been. There were similar situations where Declan and her would pranks their family members from time to time and there seemed to be a similar reaction, which she and Declan thought were quite funny. She laughed a little more as Freddie continued.

“Alright, I’ll see you later then okay? And if there’s anymore pain or issues with that leg of yours, or just for anything in general, you know where to find me” Molly says genuinely and grins and the young boy, as she pats the boy gently on his shoulder. She did hope the boy was okay, and hoped he knew that she was indeed there for the young boy if he ever needed her for anything.
