With the bag in his arm, Greg approached the 4th floor and pushed into it, glancing about.  It seemed the usual band of misfits, but he noted that Theo was not amongst the crowd.  Today Greg had decided to try to expose Theo to the current world, or at the very least, lure him from his mental hiding place with books and magazines.  He had gone into the book stores on Diagon Alley, searching the titles for books he recalled Theo reading.  One was the, "The Bee Manufacturer"; he'd had to have help finding it, remembering only the description about it being about dogs and being gothic, whatever that meant.  He'd actually bought two copies, and had one at home in his cottage, ready for when he returned from today's visit.

Greg had already been reading to other patients, and with his hours completed, he had the rest of the morning and the day to be with Theo.  He intended on staying all day, to see how they fed him and any other routine items that needed to be done, like the toiletries and what not.  Draco had offered him hope about the foundation idea, and Greg honestly wondered if Theo understood any of it.  It broke his heart a little but steeled his determination to get him out.  Because honestly, it didn't seem like the hospital was helping all that much.
