Creeveys in Counselling

Prologue

Here he sat in the waiting room. He was very nervous. It was necessary, but he still didn't like it. So much had happened to him the past year. Or more specific since he had gotten the invitation to join a special, exclusive Ball on his school. He had been so honoured to be invited that he had gone to the Ball, together with his younger brother and sister. He and his brother now wished they had never gone at all.

"Mr. Creevey!" said the nurse.

Slowly Colin rose out of his chair and followed her into the room at the other end of the waiting room.

"Mr. Spock will be with you shortly. Please wait here," she said.

Off course he wasn't going anywhere. His mother would kill him for it. She wasn't paying that much money for therapy sessions for him and his brother. This was to be his first session.

A tall man entered the room and walked to Colin. He held out his hand. Colin took it.

"Hello, I'm doctor Gerald Spock," he said as he introduced himself.

"Hello," replied Colin.

Dr. Spock walked back to his desk and took the file that lay upon it.

"So you are Colin Creevey. Please lie down."

Colin did as he was asked. The doctor took the chair from behind his desk and placed the chair next to the couch on which Colin was lying down.

"Do you know why you are here?" asked doctor Spock.

"Yes, my brother and I... w-we got r-raped last year," Colin said with a stone in his stomach, "we knew the guys who did it. But neither of us thought they were this bad."

"Have you, your brother or your parents pressed charges against them? Have any of you confronted their parents?" asked Doctor Spock

"No, doctor. Their fathers are in prison. And it wouldn't make much difference. They are twice, maybe thrice the size of me and my brother," Colin said ambiguously.

"Well, I guess with a few sessions we can get a long way on your way to recovery," said doctor Spock. Colin saw the pound signs in his eyes. He was going to milk this for all they had.

"But next time, you may call me Gerald. All my patients do!" said Spock as Colin ran out the door.

His very first session had ended. He didn't know how quickly he would be able to leave the building and get home. He ran all the way to the exit and jumped on his bike. He had to endure one year of shame at school. He was a seventh year now. He felt more sorry for his brother Dennis. Dennis had three more of those years lying ahead.

When he finally arrived at home he saw his sister taking a letter from an OWL. It was probably a letter from her boyfriend, Thomas. Thomas had been nice to Eleanor, even when his housemates were raping her brothers, even though his father was in prison for being supporter of the darkest wizard if all time: Lord Voldemort.
