It probably should have occurred to Sora a little earlier that Alma would have been in the Hospital Wing, but in his defence he had been really worried. Something so weird had been happening at Hogwarts that they hadn't even found out about it until everything was all over and they couldn't help

Alma, too, had been instructed to leave the school by her brothers... but her stubborn streak was infamous for a reason. So, ignoring those orders, she stayed right where she was. She was certain she would receive a Howler from one or all of them at some point, but that mattered little to her. Her skills had been useful, far more so than if she had tucked her tail between her legs and gone off to the Garden, and she hadn't actually been hurt, so she was content with her decision.

For all that stubborn Gryffindor bravery of hers, though, she was still a little jumpy. The door suddenly burst open, startling her more than she would have liked to admit, but fortunately there were no Inferi or agents of Ultimecia behind it.

"Sora!"

As soon as she recovered from her moment of surprise, Alma ran to the door and wrapped her arms around him in a tight hug.

Sora hadn't really been sure what he would do when he saw Alma again, and the moment he did, he stopped worrying about it. If he'd been carrying bags, he probably would have dropped them because the only thing he was concentrating on right at that moment was her.

He met her halfway, of course, not that he remembered running at all. His arms wound around her and pulled her tight, forehead leaning against hers. They were so close now that his eyes were sort of crossing, trying to focus on her. "You're really okay, then," he said, and while he definitely wasn't crying or anything, the strained tone to his voice said he might've liked to. He closed his eyes for a moment, just taking her in and also stopping his eyes from crossing. "I was really worried about you."

"It's all right. I'm all right." Her tone was gentle and, she hoped, soothing, with the intention of making Sora relax and go back to his usual cheery self. This was the first time since the attacks had begun that she actually felt guilty about staying; making him worry about her as much as he had didn't sit right with her, at all. But that didn't matter anymore; she hadn't been hurt and Sora was finally back, and she was very, very happy about all this.

"I missed you, you know," she said softly, and Sora could probably hear her grinning. "Welcome back."
