The Golden Quadruplets

chapter 3

year 2

Clementine pov

as the days went by i began to grow closer and closer to Hermione, Ron and Harry.
i'd even like to say i am apart of their friend group.

same goes with Sage and Hallie, i became closer then before and i'd like to say they are my bestfreinds.

"why don't you tell Harry that you like him yet"
Hallie rested her elbow on the table and put her chin on her palm.
she gave me puppy dog eyes, obviously teasing me, this became a regular thing.
"i don't like him!"
"sure" said Sage
"i don't, i seriously don't" i expressed, waving my hands in the air.
"we don't believe that" Sage said flipping through her book.
i rolled my eyes, and sighed, dozing off.
"if i told him, i don't think our friendship will be the same."
"wait- you like him?!" Hallie shouted standing up from her seat.
'SHHHHHH' everyone in the library said.
"Hallie, it was quite obvious, besides you were just saying that she does" Sage said.
"i know, but i wasn't expecting her to actually say she does!" Hallie sat down in her chair.
"tell us more" Hallie said.

"i'm not telling him that i like him. that's to awkward" i shrugged then stood up from my chair, picking up my books.
"now, where are you going?" Sage asked me
"Hermione and I are going on a walk"
Hallie nodded and began to pay attention to her book.

i walked out the library and went to search for Hermione.

once i found Hermione we went out on a walk on the school grounds.

"Hermione.. may i ask you something?"
i said, trying to build up the courage to ask Hermione a question.
"of course Clemen" she smiled at me.
i picked at my finger nails
"um.. well i- i like someone, and, i'm not sure if i want to tell him yet. do you think i should?"
Hermione looked at the girl with excited eyes.
"really?!" the girl exclaimed, stopping in her tracks to look at me.
"yes.." i awkwardly stood staring at her excitement.
"who! who is it Clementine tell me!"
Hermione begged me.
i rolled my eyes playfully.

"shut it Hermione someone may hear you!"
i pushed the girl playfully.
"oh come on Clemen just tell me!" she begged once more.
"fine.. fine... it's um... well-"
"tell me"

"it's Harry" i mumbled
"huh?" she said confusingly
"say that again?"
"it's Harry" i mumbled again awkwardly waiting.
"what..?"
"it's Harry!" i shouted, looking around awkwardly making sure no one was close enough to hear.
Hermione stared at me blankly, probably weirded out, what if she doesn't want to be friends with me anymore?!
"oh... you like Harry?!" she exclaimed.
"shut up!" i said slapping my hand over her mouth.

she bursted into laughter.
"oh come on! i know you like Ron" i spat.
she widened her eyes.
"no- no- i don't i don't" she said, standing straighter and crossing her arms.
i laughed.
"it doesn't matter anyways because i'm not telling Harry i like him" i responded.
"why not?"
"because i know he doesn't like me Hermione, come on i think we all know this" i said, sadness in my eyes.
Hermione looked to her feet and nodded her head.
"let's go back, i have class" Hermione said.
i nodded my head and we walked back to school.

once we got back, Hermione went off to class.
i saw Harry, perfect timing.

"hey!" i said, rushing over to him.
"uh- hi" he said, i followed him to his class.
"where were you?" Ron asked.
"oh- me and Hermione?" i tilted my head.
"yes"
"we went on a walk, nothing important" i blushed.
"are you okay?" Harry butted in.
"what- yeah- yeah i'm fine" i smiled.
"your all red." Harry said.
i widened my eyes awkwardly.
"we're at your class Harry" i smiled, quickly turning around, rushing to my class.
that was embarrassing.

~time skip~

after class of course i went the library, no other place i rather be.
i sighed, relaxing into my seat.

i turned my head to see Sage and Hallie, laughing about something ridiculous probably.

i cleared my throat and went back to reading my book.

"hey Clemen" Sage smiled, sitting down next to me.
"shhh" i shushed her.
the two looked at each other, raising their eyebrows at me.
"what?" i asked, shrugging my shoulders.
"someone is upset" Sage said, giggling.
"whats wrong?" Hallie asked.
"nothing" i replied, still reading my book.

well obviously something was wrong.
i just know Harry will never like me, of course i'm young but then again when ur young you have ridiculous feelings.
and after all of that, i blushed in front of him.
i internally face palmed.
embarrassing.

"you sure-" Sage said, getting interrupted.
"shhhhh! it's a library" i whispered.
"i have class" Hallie smiled, grabbing her books and walking off.
"same, i do too, talk later?"
i nodded.
"okay bye Clemen!" Sage smiled, waving at me.

i laughed quietly, then continued reading.

i wonder if i'll ever tell Harry i like him...
i sighed, grabbing my wand and leaving the library.
