Summary: Like everyone else, Hermione's sick as well.
Hermione was sick. There was definitely no contesting that. What had started out as something minor at first, had quickly escalated into something major. At first, she had thought it was something like the measles, but she had been vaccinated for that when she was a child. The mumps too, as well as a score of other diseases that had since supposedly died out. So what was it that she had? Another strand, something completely different and new? Ever she, Hermione Granger, had no idea. All she knew was that she had tried to figure it out during the first few days when the spots first appeared, but had since grew incapable of doing so. She was exceedingly tired; her muscles and joints ached more than when she had had the flu and she had a headache that would would not cease no matter how many potions or muggle medications she tried to take for it. Then there were the marks on her arms - they itched worse than chicken pox and poison ivy combined; it was unbearable and nothing would make it stop.
Unable to sleep, she was stuck to the couch, refusing to move and with her head buried against the pillow to avoid any light or sound while oven mitts covered her hands to keep herself from scratching herself to death. All she wanted to do was curl up into a ball and just cry from how utterly miserable she felt. Everything spun, the couch felt like it was closing in on her, but she couldn't move and she was reduced to shaking from fear that it would. She was hallucinating, but in her mind, as smart and quick as it was, there was no way for her to discern whether it was trying to attack her or not.
