INTO THE WORLD OF MY DREAMS (Reader X Cedric)

CHAPTER 11

Y/n pov:

This month went smoothly I suppose. Fred and George's plan went as they wanted. They managed to sneak off to Hogsmeade and I somehow found a way to help cover up for them. I was almost caught by Snape, but I guess luck was on my side this time.

Today was one of those boring weekends, where Jasmine helps Professor Sprout and in these times I usually go hang out with Cedric, but ever since Cedric got in quidditch I've hardly seen him around. He usually roams around the place with his friends or is busy with quidditch.

Since I don't have anything better to do I planned on spending the day in the library to try to finish up some of the assignments or maybe study a bit.

The thought of it alone makes me hate ever wishing to come here. Why is there so much work to do?!

I made it to the library to find it empty, which is usually on the weekend.

I found a corner table that was empty and well-covered by all the bookshelves with a wide window that looked out to the beautiful outside.

...

An hour has passed and I'm still working on Snape's stupid essay about the way to make an aging potion and its effects if done wrong.

I had three books opened in front of me on the table while scribbling down important information onto my parchment.

Suddenly middle of my work I didn't notice someone sitting on the chair opposite mine until they spoke up.

"Hey," a very familiar voice said gently.

I looked up to be met with bright grey eyes.

I smile when I see Cedric. He was wearing his usual Hogwarts uniform without the robe.

"Hi," I said smiling lightly at the sight of him. It's just I haven't seen him in weeks now. "What are you doing here?" I asked curious after realizing.

"Well, one of my mates said that he needed a book to finish some homework, and I told him I'll get it after practice" he pushed out the book that was in his hand "Then I saw you here sitting alone scribbling away..." He explained.

I nodded before wondering "Shouldn't you then be heading back to give it to him?"

He chuckled before shaking his head "No I think he doesn't care about it that much"

"You're right if he did he would've got it himself" I continued.

"You're right...." He said before things went silent between us. We said nothing after that going to our comforting silence like always, but something about this felt different. He was staring into my eyes as I did to his, but there was something else about this that I simply couldn't figure out what.

"So-" Cedric was about to say something before he was interrupted.

"Y/n!" Two very familiar voices called from behind me.

I turned to see that it was none other than the Weasley twins.

Fred sat on my right while George took the chair on my left. "What are you doing here?" Asked Fred.

"What looks like I'm doing Fred?" I responded rolling my eyes playfully as I pointed at my work on the table.

"It looks like you're befriending the enemy," George said, which made me confused when I looked at him. Then I noticed he was staring at Cedric and that's when I realized he meant Cedric is the enemy.

"What are y-" Before I could ask my question I was cut off.

"He's talking about quidditch..." Cedric cleared and it was not with his nice voice that I liked hearing.

I turned my attention to him to see that he hadn't got that sweet smile I enjoyed seeing. He was staring back and forth between the two as he was displeased with them.

He suddenly got up and grabbed the book from the table while I looked up at him confused about why he was leaving.

Cedric let out a rough huff before speaking again "Seeing around Y/n" He didn't even bother to look at me he just gave me his back and walked away.

And Fred and George seemed to be pleased with themselves.

I glare at the two smirking Gryffindors. They both just shrugged when they noticed my glare.

I started to collect my stuff from the table and placed them into my bag.

"Where are you going? Me and George got something important to tell you, don't we George" Fred starts as George nods.

I picked up my bag "I'm sorry, but you seem you guys forgot that I'm a Hufflepuff too, and you two see us Hufflepuffs your enemy" After that I turned my back on the two and walked away.

As I was leaving the library I heard their footsteps follow behind me.

"Oh come on Y/n you know that's not what we meant" Fred started as he caught up to me and followed my path in the hall.

So did George as he continued after his brother "Yeah we were just kidding" George defended.

I simply rolled my eyes and continued walking faster as I looked around and peeked into every hall I crossed by to see if Cedric was there. I wasn't mad at the two I could care less what they think but the way Cedric left with the look on his face made me want to look for him and explain for some reason.

And here's the thing I don't know what and why I want to explain...

"Oh come on y/n let's just drop this and go do something more fun" I heard Fred say from behind.

I stop and turn to see George agreeing to what Fred said.

I glare at the two. Of course, they just think of such things. "Don't you two have homework, 'cause I do and I'm busy with a lot of work that needs to be done" I lied. truthfully I want to find Cedric but with these two following behind won't make it easy.
