« I'll be yours if you'll be mine »
~Epilogue~

If you had asked me during my first three years at Hogwarts to describe myself in one world, I would have answered « happy » without hesitation, but then
Cedric died.
And since then, nothing has ever been the same.

Im setting foot on the train station for the fourth time, normally I would be happy, to finally be able to escape from my unstable family, and to go back back to Hogwarts, the school who made it possible for me to become who I was, to meet new friends and to explore my new identity as a wizard.
(visions of gideons)
I load my trunk, all the memories of the day I met Cedric for the first times coming back at me, I wipe a single tear falling down my face and walk into the train, I decide to sit alone in a free car, as the landscape in the window starts to move before my eyes, I try to shut down my brain, already overwhelming me with thoughts like it did all summer. After a while, I finally give up on sleeping and reading and decide to look by the window instead, an hour approximatively after the departs, I hear a knock on the glass, I turn my head to see, harry potter, he was the one who brought Cedric's body back last year at the end of the tournament, beside the whole « chosen one thing » I never really talked to him at Hogwarts even though he seemed to be friend with Cedric.
I nod at him, which makes him understand he can come in.
« hi, um, im harry potter. »
« I know who you are, im Olivia Calderon »
« I know, I heard you were really close with Cedric. »
« I was, actually. »
« I thought maybe we could talk, about him, or not, since we were both close to him, if you don't want to its okay, I just figured maybe you'd want to talk to someone who knew him. »
« Um... sure, alright.
And with a nod, he left, I was kind of surprised with the discussion I just had.
After a few minutes, I fell asleep, my head resting on the window glass. I woke up, with the sound of the train arriving at Hogwarts; I got down, took out my trunk, and walked over to the professors checking inside our bags and trunks, I watched around me, not really seeing anything, being in the place that reminded me most of him was almost unbearable.
I finally entered the great hall, looking for a pair of grey eyes, I knew I wouldn't find anymore, I find a place in the Hufflepuff table and sit down, waiting for Elsie or Jasper to come in, finally my eyes land on a familiar smiling face, immediately, a smile appears on my face too, she runs to me and takes me in her arms, the feeling of her hands stroking my back giving me the comfort I needed for the three months without her, behind her I see another familiar boy with brown hair and black eyes, Jasper, he walked over to us and joined  our group hug, making us look like three idiots standing in the middle of the cafeteria in a big hug.
After our little reunion, we sit down and talk about our summer, Elsie has been to Pennsylvania with her family and Jasper has been helping his family for the wedding ceremony of his sister that is in 3 months, he invites us to it too.
After the sorting ceremony of the first years and the dinner, I tell jasper and elsie to wait for me in the common room because I have to see someone, when they leave, I walk over to the Gryffindor table where I know i'll find Harry. I see him with his usual friends, the ginger one, the smart one and a new 3rd year, seems to be related to the ginger one.                              Harry finally looks up at me and I say,
« We can talk tomorrow, after the quidditch match by the tree in the frontward. »
« Sure, alright see you tomorrow. »
His ginger friend gives me an awkward look and the smart girl looks at me with a nice smile, I decide to smile back at her and then leave.
Im walking when I bump into a tall blond guy, you guessed it, Malfoy;
« Watch where you're going Malfoy, there's other people than you in the hallways, I know its crazy. »
« Fuck off, Calderon »
« Arsehole »
I walk away and join the Hufflepuff common room, Jasper and Elsie are waiting for me by the fireplace, sitting on pillows, I sit next to them and join the conversation;
« Who did you had to see ? » Elsie asks.
« Harry Potter, in Gryffindor, he wants to talk about Cedric. »
« Oh, and you said yes? »
« Yeah, why would I say no ? »
« I dont know I was just asking »
« That would be great, to talk to him, I mean he was close to Cedric, I think. » Jasper adds
« Yeah, thats true »
We talk for a while before going to our rooms, catching up and just laughing like friends, little did we know, our lives were about to change for the better or for the worse.
