The Golden Quadruplets

chapter 30

year 3

third person pov.

one week was now left of school, it was a saturday night, Sage, Hallie and Clementine were hanging out together.

they hadn't really had much girl talk, like how it was in first year, when something would happen like Clementine having a crush they would rush to each other with rose colored cheeks.

"so, go on Clem tell us about you and Harry? is it finally official?" Hallie said, not much of a filter on her, she just wants to believe in love.
"oh my-" Clementine laughed.
along with Sage, who then took a bite of chocolate they had snuck into the common room, Sage luckily had the help of the twins sneaking skills.
Hallie made a face at the two, signaling for Clementine to continue.
"no, just no" she blushed.

"alright" Hallie eyed her, then turned to Sage who had her palm on her chin, her elbow resting on the couch cushion.
"updates on you and Fred"
Sage almost answered immediately, like a flash.
"no" she said, staring blankly into Hallies eyes.

"blimey, you two are so~ boring" Hallie laid back, her hands behind her head, Clementine laying out next to her.
"okay then do you and Karl have something going on" Clemen turned to her, she didn't blush, instead just stared up at the roof.

Clementine glanced over at Sage to catch a reading of her expression, which wasn't there, she just stared down at Hallie.
Hallie hummed, almost like she didn't have anything to say.
"alright leave us on a cliffhanger" said Clementine, getting up to get herself another cup of hot chocolate.
"we're friends, who barely hang out anymore because he has... different friends" said Hallie, finally speaking, she sighed.

Clementine sat back down.
"different friends?" she asked Hallie.
Hallie blinked, still staring at the roof.
"no time for me" she smiled, not in a funny way, in a way where she was covering something up, like a sappy depressing thing she had wanted to so badly say.

and the conversation had ended there, they talked for a little bit but ended up heading off to bed.

"five days" said Finn, walking with a Clementine to their next class, they had been together all day.
"what?" asked Clementine, she glanced over at Finn, who was subconsciously playing with the rings on his fingers, which made Clementine start to tug on the ring Finn had gifted her.
"five more days at school" Finn looked over at Clemen, she turned her head back to where they were heading.
"oh, yeah" she muttered.
"are you happy or sad" he asked, still staring down at her, glancing up so he wouldn't run into someone every now and then.
"sad" Clementine responded.

"Clementine!" the conversation paused, and so did their feet at the sound of Clementines name being called, they both stopped and looked back, running up to them was none other then Harry Potter, who squeezed himself between the two and gave Hallie a 'hello' hug, Finn rolled his eyes, not caring if the others had seen, then they had all continued walking to class after figuring out Harry had the same class.

Harry and Clementine talked, flirted, and their faces turned into tomato's every now and then, Finn listened, but didn't bother to speak, he glanced at Harry every now and then, looking at how he looked down at Clementine, that look in his eyes, which couldn't quite be described.

the only thing Finn could think about was when Sage and Clementine had fought, and she talked about Clementine not being able to choose between them, it made him angered.

thankfully, for Finn they had made it to class and he didn't have to stand in self pity.

-

at lunch the 3 girls, Hallie, Sage and Clementine all chatted with their friends, Clementine was warming up to Gabby, Suki and Lilac, she had engaged in their conversation once or twice, and did actually bother to listen this time around.

-

Clementine walked to class with Finn and Harry again, Finn walked ahead of them this time, desperate to get to class and stop having to listen to the flirts, Finn clearly had a crush on Clementine, he never talked about it with anyone other then Violet, who gave him advice, which he didn't take, because he was to scared to try and make a move on Clementine, which is exactly what Vi had suggested.

-

classes were done with, and Clementine was in the library, actually studying this time instead of reading, Darius came in as usual to try and drag Clemen out of her 'study trance' as he called it, she refused and continued studying, he slouched into a chair he pulled up next to the iconic window, agreeing that he would wait for her to finish.

-

"i have mixed feelings for him" Hallie flung herself into bed, talking with Sage in their dorm.
"who exactly are we talking about" sighed Sage, pulling off her shoes and coat, sitting onto Hallies bed.
"Darius" she said, with almost disgust in her voice, she wasn't the fondest over Clementines new flirty friend.
"oh, well then i agree" Sage said, flopping onto her back, laying on top of Hallies legs.

-

dinner was the same as lunch, except this time Clementine couldn't choose it she wanted to look back at Harry, or glance over to search for Darius, she chose to look at Harry, who smiled at her, giving her a small little wave that she later blushed over, and couldn't stop thinking about whilst trying to go to sleep.

Tuesday

Clementine, Ron and Hermione walked together to the library, Hermione needed to stop by to find something in a book, and well Clementine and Ron were just all together at the time.

Clementine didn't complain with having to go to the library, but Ron on the other hand...

"what exactly are we here for" Ron slouched against the bookshelf, Hermione shoved him aside to reach for a book which was behind his head.
"so i can study something" Hermione rolled her eyes, after having to explain it so many times you would to.

"i don't mind it" said Clementine, walking out from behind the shelf of books, setting one down on the table and skipping through the pages.
Ron slouched into a chair and stared down at the book.
"how do you enjoy this" asked Ron, Clementine turned her head slowly to look down at him dramatically, she blinked.
"don't talk to me" she muttered, looking back down at the book dramatically flipping her hair whilst doing so.

he looked at Hermione who shrugged at him, he glanced up at Clementine then got up to hang around Hermione, and began to beg her to hurry up so they can leave the library.

1178 words.

this was just a little filler chapter for you, this was actually kinda fun to write random things, sorry if you found it boring, but i think it adds a little bit more character building, and more depth.
