You are very brave, my dear. I want to say that I do understand the choice you made, but also that I know it comes at a high cost. I shan't say more about it, as it's done with now, but if it would be a help at any time to speak with someone, my door is open.
Speaking as your Healer now, I'd like to hear a report on your arm. If there's any lingering pain, it may be a sign that we were not successful in setting it last night, which is more than possible, under the circumstances. If it's not entirely as it should be, do come to the Hospital Wing as soon as you return to the castle and allow me to reset it. There's no reason in the world to carry on with lingering injury of that sort.
Also, I must remind you not to underestimate the knock you took to your head. You did lose consciousness for a time, and while you came back to yourself quickly and showed no severe impairment, you should continue watching today and tomorrow at least for any signs or symptoms--headache, changes in balance, vision, hearing or sense of taste. Or difficulty sleeping, though that could have multiple causes.
I'm very sorry about the young man who was so badly injured, and I trust you understand that you did more for him by offering him comfort than I could do with any healing magic in my power. Truly, he was beyond my help. It says much for your character that you stayed with him as you did.

I wish he was someone I liked more.
No I don't mean that but - I know. I mean I could have gone with you otherwise. I don't wish someone I liked was dead, but I gave up something to stay, and I couldn't go back after I promised to stay I know, but if he had been someone nicer I'd feel like a hero, only he maybe didn't even know I was there or wouldn't have wanted me there after all.
I don't know what I think really, it's all a muddle and I've no idea how I ever will sleep for the house elf to check on me.

It was not a circumstance with any easy or happy options, yet under those circumstances, you carried yourself admirably. That is a fine thing to have done.
