"George... Eileen can go... Jackson, Caroline." Cedric said while doodling on a small piece of parchment.
"Jackson? I thought you didn't like him." I said.
"No he's fine. Fred. That's who I was forgetting." He laughed and laid back on the couch. I was sitting in the chair next to the couch.
"And Vivienne." I laughed, ruffling his hair.
"I am automatically invited. That, you see, is automatically implied." Vivienne said, walking in. She dropped her bag on one of the chairs and laid down on the floor.
"Did you tell Fred and George to meet us outside the Hufflepuff common room at 5:00 pm tonight?" I interrogated.
"I forgot." She said.
"I'll go tell everyone." I got up and walked out. Every year, on the last full day at Hogwarts, we go to the kitchens. Usually it's just me, Vivienne, Cedric, Fred, and George. This year we have more friends so more people are invited.
~time skip~
It was kind of like a party, so Viv insisted I wore something nice. I put on a white dress with ruffles. We walked out of the door and out of the common room. Everyone was there. Vivienne started leading us to the kitchens. Cedric's fingers intertwined with mine.
"You look beautiful." He whispered. I felt my face get hot.
"So do you." I responded, not sure of what else to say. He laughed.
Fred used his wand to conjure a muggle music player and played some of the greatest wizarding hits.
"Hi! You must be Estelle." A chocolate skinned girl broke off of Jackson.
"Yes... and you're Caroline, right?" I said, kindly. Cedric walked over to me.
"Cake?" He asked.
"Yes, thank you." He handed me a slice of cake.
"You guys do this every year?" Caroline asked, looking around.
"Yeah... it's usually just me and Vivienne, Cedric. Sometimes Fred and George. We decided it would be fun to invite you guys this year though." I said.
Through the night I noticed that Eileen talked mostly to me and the Weasley twins, though she spoke to everyone. I hadn't thought how awkward it might be for her to be with a bunch of 6th years. She seemed fine, hanging out with Fred most of the night.
I learned a lot about Caroline. She seems extremely nice. Jackson made a good choice.
Eventually people started to break off and go their separate ways, back to their dorms.
Before everyone left Fred came up to me and Eileen.
"Essie, I talked to my mother. I know Cedric's father probably won't let you hang out at his house. She thinks it would be good if you, Cedric, and your sister stayed at the Burrow this summer."
"Oh my god, really? Thank you so much!"
Me, Cedric, and Vivienne headed back to the Hufflepuff common room.
We talked for about an hour about how we all were going to the Burrow for the summer. Vivienne eventually went up to our dorm and I fell asleep on the couch, with my head on Cedric's lap.
~time skip~
"Stell... you need to wake up... we're going to the Burrow today." I heard Cedric's voice say. I groaned and opened my eyes.
"Fine..." I mumbled as I got up.
I got dressed and pretty soon, we were on the train heading away from Hogwarts. Not going home, but the Burrow was closer to home than anywhere else. Except maybe Hogwarts. I stared out the window at the trees flying by.
"I'll pay for the stuff from the trolley. It's only fair. You guys have been paying for it for the past six years." Eileen said and stood up. She went out and brought in an assortment of sweets.
"Thank you." I said, yawning. Fred and George have already dug in to the pile. I ate a chocolate frog and a pumpkin pasty before looking out the window again. I didn't feel like talking and was extremely tired from the party.
I fell asleep.
A/N: the next few
chapters will consist of
little clips of their summer
and seventh year (from all povs)
then i will do clips from the
next few years. then the
battle of hogwarts, after the battle,
and then the epilogue. it will
