To The Moon And Back

Chapter 15

"For fucks sake, it's not in here," I groaned.

Cedric, Harry and I were in the library trying to find clues for what the first task could be. Hermione didn't really join this time because of Ron. I felt bad for her as he was making her choose between him or Harry. If you ask me I think this whole situation is pathetic and everyone should just be here helping.

"What are we going to do?" Cedric asked, rubbing his face in his hands.

"It's alright, we'll keep looking." I said, going towards the bookshelf.

I turned the corner to see if there were any books that would help us instead of looking in the same place. I rummaged through the books on the shelves and separated two books when I saw a familiar face, staring back at me.

"Bloody hell, Weasley. You scared me." I muttered.

"I'm not that scary looking, am I?" He smirked, keeping himself in my eyesight between the books.

"What do you want?" I asked.

"I'm sorry, am I not allowed to be in the library the same time as you?" He asked, smiling and leaning against the bookshelf so his face is closer to mine.

"You know what I mean, Weasley."

"Just wondering if you found out what the first task was?"

"No, we haven't found it yet. We've been at it for hours." I sighed.

His wide smile faltered and suddenly he was glaring at me. I raised my brows at his reaction, waiting for him to speak.

"You'd think you would've found it by now after spending almost all day with Harry and Cedric." He spat, emphasising Cedric's name.

"So that's what this is about? Are you jealous, Weasley?" I smirked.

"No. I just feel sorry for them two as they have to spend so much time with you. I'm surprised their heads haven't exploded yet." He glared.

"Don't act like you aren't wishing to be one of them right now, Freddie. To spend hours with me? Watching me lean over the table to grab my quill?" I whispered in a flirty tone.

He was even more frustrated than he was to begin with. His jaw was clenched and he was leaning in further so his face was almost touching mine. He didn't say anything, he just stared. I could hear his breathing with how close he was. He leaned in to kiss me but just as he was about to, he was interrupted.

"Sage? We found it!" Cedric exclaimed.

I smirked at Fred's reaction as he hung his head and muttered a curse word under his breath. He looked back up at me, his eyes were practically begging me to stay.

"Ciao, Weasley," I smirked and walked away towards Cedric.

I saw Cedric and Harry looking disappointed and concerned, staring at a book.

"What the matter? I thought you found the clue?" I asked, sitting down besides them.

"We did," Harry murmured.

He gave me the book to read and my eyes scanned over the words quickly and came to a halt when I saw the word Dragon. Fucking hell, this tournament is going to end up with someone dead at this rate.
