Flawed *EDITING* (Chronicles of Narnia & Harry Potter Crossover) (PeterxOC)

17- All This Waiting

Really sorry for the crappy filler chapter. It can't all be exciting action, now can it? Really, I just need an appropriate transition...and this was the best I could come up with. Narnia WILL come soon, I just need some certain things to happen first. Again, sorry. By the way, don't be freaking out about a certain pairing, this still is Peter/OC.

Chapter Inspiration:

- Fifteen ~ Taylor Swift

The last couple nights were very restless.

I tossed and turned in my bed, hoping that Aslan would show Himself once more and take me to Narnia. I remember during one of His lessons He told that time is frozen on Earth when in Narnia, but you'll never know how much time passes there while your here.

Judging by the fact that I haven't been to fight the war, I'm guessing that Jadis is still ruling and Narnia's in its winter curse. I flipped onto my back and stared at the ceiling. How long was 'soon'? Honestly, it shouldn't be a word. It just drives people like me insane.

Having enough of the hot sheets, I threw them back and padded quietly down the steps, clad in pj shorts and a t-shirt. I wasn't going to see anyone right? WRONG.

Never have I ever been so wrong. As I made my way down the steps to the common room with a book in hand, I noticed three people in the room even though it was two in the morning. They were not people I would've chosen to see me if I had to choose three myself.

Fred, George, and Seamus watched as I froze in my steps. I probably looked like a zombie to them. My bed hair wasn't the nicest. George burst out laughing, making me blush crimson. I backed up the steps, feeling like a complete idiot. There goes my five minutes of looking like a hero.

I heard quiet scolding as I made my way to my room. Deciding that reading in my room was a better idea, I slid back into bed and shut the curtains of my four-poster bed.

The next morning, the last day of this term, I looked in the mirror and cringed. Dark circles were under my eyes and I looked uncharacteristically pale. I sighed loudly and brushed through my hair before curling it with my wand. I grabbed my bag for the train and set off for breakfast.

I slid in next to Hermione and looked down at my plate, hoping my hair covered my face. Unluckily for me, Ginny noticed and frowned. "Laurel what's under your eyes?" I shot a look at her before shaking my head. "Nothing's wrong with my face Ginny."

Harry frowned and leaned over the table, moving my hair from my face. "Did you have nightmares?" "Harry I'm fine! I'm not some two year old!" I snapped, shoveling food down my throat. My friends stared at me in shock.

"Laurel is he...?" Ron trailed looking uneasy. I stood up from the table and grabbed my bag. Before turning on my heel and storming out, I hissed, "No he is not if that's what you're asking." Fred stood up and placed an arm on me before I got far.

"Laurel if this is because of last night and George—" "Nothing is wrong all right! You lot need to calm down and stop being so paranoid." I seethed, trying to not raise my voice. "You do realize You-Know-Who's back right? We have a perfectly good reason for being paranoid Laurel." Hermione retorted.

I shot them glares before storming out for real. I shook my head and gripped my hair. All this waiting was making me a crabby bitch. I knew I should've gone back and apologized, but now wasn't the time. I needed to take my mind off of Narnia.

Seamus strode over to me from the courtyard and walked in stride with me. "Are you alright?" he asked. I gave him a shrug. "It's...complicated..." "If it's any consolation, you look pretty with or without the circles under your eyes."

I looked up at Seamus and saw the sincere in his expression. This time, it was my turn to kiss his cheek. He caught my chin just as I was pulling away. He held it and searched my face. He leaned in and kissed my lips softly.

It was lucky we were on the side of the corridor or else we would've been creating traffic. I gently rested my hands on his chest, kissing him back. He smiled in the kiss, grabbing my face in between both his hands.

Seamus pulled away too quickly for my liking. He smiled and pecked me once more before turning away. "Seamus?" I called incredulously. He turned around and flashed me a grin. "I think your friends will be wanting to talk to you. I'll see you later."

I furrowed my eyebrows before turning my head to the side to see Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Fred, and George watching me in awe. I blushed crimson and watched as they came forward. The Weasley boys wolf whistled. Hermione and Ginny whispered girly things in my ear while Harry watched me with an amused smirk, but the pain was obvious in his eyes, silently mourning Sirius.

It was then I realized I had the best friends in the entire world.

As we got off the train, I looked for Eva and our luggage. I found everything and noticed Eva talking to her friend. I called her name and watched as she walked over. I handed her some of her bags and looked for a trolley.

"What you doin'?" Ron asked as I put our things on two trolleys. "We're taking a shuttle to Grimmauld Place." Ron nodded and walked over to his family. I smiled and waved at Mrs. Weasley. "Will you be alright deary?"

I nodded. "Yes, thank you Mrs. Weasley." Tonks walked over and started to help Eva push her trolley. "Tonks...?" I asked. "Change of plans, me and Moody are taking you two." I smiled at her and pushed my luggage.
