Chapter 13

It was now time for her graduation, she couldn't believe she was graduating.

"Congratulations, Lissy," Viktor said, hugging his cousin.

After she hugged him she turned to Alfons. She didn't expect him to be here.

The two of them shared a hug.

Lisel pulled away and she never noticed how his cinnamon brown eyes sparkled in the sunlight. Although, she'll always love Cedric it's time to move on and maybe this time to Alfie. Let's hope he doesn't die too.

"Would you like to spend the summer with me er --- I mean us -- in Bulgaria?" Alfons stuttered.

"I'd love to."

Alfie grinned at her.

A week after graduation, Lisel was packing for Bulgaria. She had never been to Bulgaria alone. She had always stayed with Viktor and her aunt and uncle. She finished packing.

---

A few days later she apparated to Bulgaria. She knew Viktor and Alfie shared a house. The two boys greeted her at the door grinning at her.

"Hey boys," she greeted her cousin and his best friend.

"Come on in," Viktor said escorting her in.

"Hey Lotte," Alfons greeted.

She looked up at her cousin's best friend confused.

"Do you mind if I call you that?" Alfons asked, rubbing the back of his neck suddenly awkward. He was never awkward around girls let alone his best friend's little cousin.

"No, not at all."

Viktor was holding back the urge to laugh at how awkward his best friend was around his cousin.

"What are you laughing at, Vik?" Lisel asked innocently.

Alfons glared at his best friend.

"I just thought of something funny," he said.

Lisel looked suspicious but didn't say anything.

They led her up to the spare room and she followed them.

"Here we are, Lissy," Viktor said, as the trio walked into the room.

The room was a marginal size, painted beige and had a queen sized bed. It pays off to be the cousin of a world-renowned seeker.

"We'll leave you alone to unpack, Lotte."

Lisel nodded and the boys left her room. The minute they walked out Viktor cracked up.

"That wasn't funny, Viktor," Alfons huffed.

Viktor patted his back and said. "I beg to differ, mate."

"You were just as awkward around Hermione."

Viktor got a wistful look in his dark eyes. He had invited Hermione to visit him in Bulgaria last year like Alfons had invited Lisel this year. The only girl who had agreed to the request was Lisel. He wasn't sure if she wanted to see him actually judging by the way she was looking at Alfons at her graduation she came to see Alfons and Viktor was a third wheel to this soon-to-be couple. He may seem like he's clueless to feelings but it's obvious that Lisel was starting to fancy Alfons.

----

Lisel's been in Bulgaria for the last month now, it was time for Alfie's twentieth birthday. He had invited her to his birthday party at his parent's house.
