chapter five

“YOU WERE IN A BROOM CLOSET WITH REM-” Ellie's voice get muffled down by amara putting her hand over her mouth, successfully shutting her up and not screaming that out for the entire school to hear but amara scrunches her nose up and quickly removes her hand off “what the fuck ellie, did you just lick me ?” amara questions with a disgusted look on her face and wiped her hand off on Ellie's scarf.

“we have more important questions at hand amara, like the fact that camila was in the broom closet with a boy she fancied since second year!!” ellie says , thankfully a little less louder this time. Camila was so fortunate that they were not in a crowded place because people in this castle loved gossip, nothing goes around faster than news about who's shagging who and who broke up with who in this castle.

Amara raises an eye brow and says “scream it out for the whole damn world to hear now, won't you ellie? ”

“oh come on, you guys are overdramatic, nobody's around anyways”ellie says rolling her eyes.

“Back to the important topic, tell us everything!! ”ellie squealed out.

“it's not that big of a deal, el. , anyways I have detention in like half an hour ” camilla groaned out.

“who cares about detention! Anyways when are you going to ask him out? ”

“ask him out? Why on earth would I do that? ” camila asked, confused.

“because you fancied him since second year?? ” ellie says. She did. She remembers the first time they talked so vividly , but she doubted he even remembered her a bit.

The platform nine and three quarters was bustling with people, mothers and fathers fretting over their children while making sure they packed everything they needed, teenagers trying to get away from their tearful parents who were tightly hugging them, some parents just scolding their kids and telling them to behave in school and not cause any more  trouble.amidst of all the chaos, was twelve year old camila trying to haul her heavy trunk up across the station. Her parents didn't want to come to this side of the station, they said that they were too scared to run headfirst into a concrete and brick pillar.

She knew it was definitely scary for them, but she wished they were here like other parents were. Mainly because this  trunk was too damn heavy for her tiny twelve year old self. She was still struggling with hauling her trunk up the staircase when someone near her just said “here sweetheart, let me get that for you ” and her trunk was taken from her hands by a woman with long chestnut brown coloured hair and a warm smile on her face. She easily dragged the trunk up until the hogwarts express. “ I'm hope lupin! what's your name sweetheart? ” the woman, hope asked with a smile on her face

“I'm camilla ,I'm a second year student ” twelve year old camila said with a small hesitant smile.

“oh that's great! My son is also in second year, he should be around here with his friends somewhere,I'm not sure you know him though .he's not much of a talker ! ” she says looking around searching for her son.

When she couldn't find him among other people, she simply shrugged and said “oh well, he'll come back soon , but how come you're alone camila, where are your parents? ” hope lupin asked with a frown on her face. “they had to leave after dropping me in the station because they were busy ”  camila lied, she was just embarrassed to say that her parents didn't want to see her off because they were scared. Of her and magic.

“oh I see ” said hope with a frown still on her face, they were interrupted by a boy her age who came running towards the woman, hope, with the biggest grin on his face. Hope gestured to him and said “well that's my son , remus ”

“mum! Mum! You can't believe what just happened I just met james’ parents, he introduced me as one of his best friends!! ” he says with the most excited grin on his face. And there was just something so mesmerizing about him, his smile and the way his eyes which were  hazel in colour lit up while talking about whatever happened and the way his hair was messy but still looked perfectly made up was adorable. And the way he was talking, god you could just hear the smile in voice.

He, in the middle of his rambling noticed the unfamiliar girl who was standing next to his mother and looked at his mum in a questioning manner. “oh right! Remus this is camila, she's your year!I was just helping her with her trunk.” he turned to camila with a shy smile “hello, I'm remus lupin. It's nice to meet you ! I'm a Gryffindor what about you?” he asked curiously

“hello, I'm camila, I'm in Hufflepuff ” she answered, with a small smile replicating his.

Their conversation got interrupted by the train's whistling, signalling it was time to go. “well, we should probably get onboard  , wouldn't want to miss the train, do we? ” he said. “well camila, it was a pleasure to meet you , have a good time honey!  Now run along you two ! ” hope said hugging her son and ruffling his hair.

Hope carried her trunk and kept it in the train for her. She thanked hope for helping her and bid her goodbye. She got on the train alongside the cute boy, remus .  And he left , to find his friends probably.

That was the first time camila saw and talked to remus. But that was not the only time she talked to him that year.

She was so stupid, she's out here obsessing over this boy while he probably could care less again. But her stupid crush went nowhere because she was always too damn scared to aproach him and actually do something about it. If it was ellie Or amara in her place they'll probably would be married with three kids by now.

“ellie, we have homework to do, remember? ” camilla said trying to bring her best friend out of her delusions. “ugh , you people  are so boring, anyways I have plans, bye! You continue writing your boring essay! ”  ellie said with mock pity.

“you have plans ? With who?” amara questioned ellie. “with that guy from ravenclaw i was telling you about! ”  ellie said excitedly.

“ with mclaggen? That cocky arsehole from the quidditch team? ” amara asked rolling her eyes. “oh come on, he's very  nice to me ” ellie said defending the guy.

“you mean that he was not a whining cocky arsehole for a few minutes? seriously ellie your standards need some working ” amara said. Ellie rolls her eyes and says “don't be so salty amara, well  I have to get going ”and ellie stormed  away after picking her bag up. She wasn't that sure about that guy, she doesn't know that much about him but she briefly talked to him once or twice before a quidditch match, and honestly amara was right, he was a cocky arsehole.

Amara suddenly stands up and says “well I have to head back to the castle too, bye camila ” okay, there was something wrong now ,because amara was suddenly in a mood. She was just fine just a few minutes ago smiling and laughing along but now she was also storming away looking like someone just stepped In her breakfast. She was just not going to read too much into it and  just let it be.

Well ,guess it's just her now.

After staying out and doing her work for a while, she decides to head in to detention.
