Holding her breath while she watched Hermione coming back to herself, Lily did her best to keep her expression neutral uncertain of both her own feelings and what Hermione's might be. She knew she wanted to be a good friend, and it was easy to let that thought guide her.

When Hermione finally spoke, Lily smiled gently at her before casting a grateful look at Madame Pomfrey, who had seen situations like these enough to know that after telling Hermione to get some rest, it was best to just retreat.

"We can still go to Hogsmeade if you like when you're feeling better." She didn't bother to clarify that she assumed it would be a friendly outing another more, now wasn't the time for that. Lily just wanted Hermione to feel better and not mortified over what had happened.
