"So Fleur have you found a date for the ball?" I ask, the ball was announced a few days ago. While Hogwarts students practiced their dancing Madame Maxime told us about the ball and told me that as being one of the Champions I will do the opening dance, with the other Champions and my date for the night.
"Well there is this one boy in the blue house." Fleur looked over to a boy in the Ravenclaw uniform and gave a flirtatious smile. "What are you going to do about the date? I mean you can't really go with a guy since you have a boyfriend but he also is back in France?" Fleur questioned, her french accent thick and making it hard to understand.
"Well, I was possibly thinking going with one of the Weasley twins cause they would never take it as an actual date, but I still want it to be special and not just pranks." Giving a small smile to her. We walked past the Library where Cedric is sitting with the golden egg reading a book.
"Why not go with him?" I hadn't noticed we stopped walking to look at him, my face turned a light pink as I look from him to Fleur.
"Well he's another Champion a-and I can't do that."
"Oh come on I know you ummm what's the word, ahh, fancy him. Anyways I'm sure hell understand you said he used to be your best friend right so you should be able to go as friends correct?"
"One I don't fancy him-" I turn to Fleur when I get cut off from a voice behind me.
"Who do you fancy?" I hear Cedric say, I slowly turn around.
"I was just telling Fleur that I don't fancy anyone." I say as I give Fleur a sideways glance telling her not to say a word.
"Ah, right, because you have that mysterious boyfriend right?"
"More like abusive..." Fleur muttered under her breath. My eyes go wide as I look towards her.
"What was that you said Fleur?" Cedric asked.
"Ohh, nothing, nothing." She looked at me with annoyance.
"Alright, well I should be going to have classes to get to." Cedric gave us a smile and me a small hug before turning down the hall to get to his class. I turned to Fleur but she was already gone, ugh, why did she even have to say anything.
*Flashback*
Walking into Beauxbaton halls to get to the dorms I ran into Jackson Yaxley, my boyfriend. He looked different from when I last saw him during the summer. I gave him a smile as he made his way towards me. "Hey, how was-" I was cut off by him pulling me down a different hallway away from people.
"This year I need you to do whatever I say." he had me pinned to the wall with an arm on each side of my head.
"Jackson, I can't just do-"
"You need to! You need to do everything I say. Today at dinner they are going to announce that some of our students will be going to Hogwarts to participate in an event. You will go on this trip and you will compete in the event. Understand."
I froze. Did he say Hogwarts? "No, I-i can't go back ther-'' He punched the wall by my head making me scream. That's when I noticed black tattoo like ink on his arm.
"You're going for me, okay." I slowly nod my head as he backs away my body shaking as I run to my dorm to find Fleur.
*End of Flashback*
I was wandering the halls when I found myself at the Astronomy tower again. Slowly sitting down I think back to that day. Why was Jackson like that? He had never been like that before, he was so sweet but now, now he's controlling and has a tattoo? I was so caught up in my thoughts that I hadn't heard the door to the tower open.
"Vicky? What are you doing up here?" I jumped as I heard the voice, turning I see Cedric standing there with a worried look on.
"I don't know, I guess I was just wandering around then ended up here." I say shrugging and relaxing against the wall again.
"Vic, you know I heard Fleur right? What did she mean that your boyfriend was abusive? Vic, is he hurting you?" Cedric came and sat in front of me not letting me have the chance to make my way out of the conversation.
"No, Ced, I mean I wouldn't say he's abusive but I don't know recently he's been controlling and I don't know. Just over the summer he had completely changed." I sigh as I look at Cedric who has a concerned expression.
"Vic, that's not a healthy relationship you should know better than to let some guy control you."
"H-hes not contr-, yeah he is, but I can't just break up with him I mean like ugh the only way for me to break up with him would be to do that over letter and I'm not that type of girl Ced." Cedric gave me a sad smile and I could see the pain in his eyes.
"Vic don't you think it'll be best to end it so you can, well, be you?" Looking from the ground to his eyes I thought about everything he had said and Fleur. Do I still even like Jackson? No. IS that because I like someone new? Possibly.
"O-okay? I'll break up with him before the ball." I sigh as I stand up. "Hey Ced?" he hummed in response. "Do you have a date to the ball?" I look back to him now laying on the ground with a growing smile on his face.
"No, Vic I don't." I walk over leaning over him.
"Why are you happy that you don't have a date?" He shrugged as he grabbed my arm and pulled down to lay next to him. Looking up at the sky that was multi colored with the rays of the setting sun. "Hey, Ced?" I looked over to him as he looked at me.
"Yeah, Vic?"
"Would you go to the ball with me?" Another smile broke across his face.
"Of course I would Vic." He looked back towards the sky as I continued to look at his face admiring the angles and the soft smile that never left his face. He glanced back towards me as I quickly looked towards the sky.
"Quit starring Vic or someone might think you might have a crush." He teased
"Shut it." I say as I smack his stomach.
"Ow, I call abuse." He yells while laughing as I continue to roll my eyes and smack him again.
