THE SOUND OF LAUGHTER AND YELPS RICOCHETED THROUGH the halls of Hogwarts as Cedric Diggory ran and randomly spun through the corridors, with a cautious Clover Carstairs on his back. The girl clutched onto the boy's jumper for dear life while Juliette and Hugo chased after the two with gleeful grins as all four raced towards the Great Hall.
There was a feeling of pure adrenaline and giddiness that hung in the air- a feeling that Clover could only truly find when with her friends.
Cedric slowly came to a stop outside of The Great Hall doors, panting heavily as Juliette and Hugo finally caught up to the two. With a single movement, Clover jumped down from the boys back causing Hugo to take charge and latch onto Cedric, ushering him forward into the hall.
Younger students were milling around the Hall as they admired and observed the Goblet of Fire. Many of them sat on the tables, which had been pushed off to the side, with looks of awe and inevitable envy as people entered their names. Clover laughed heartedly as she followed after Cedric and Hugo. The goblet had been placed in the center of the hall on the stool that usually bore the Sorting Hat. A thin, glowing line had been traced on the floor, forming a circle ten feet around it in every direction.
Hugo finally pushed Cedric forwards into the circle while Juliette and Clover clapped and whistled encouragingly. Students now gathered to watch the Hufflepuff boy enter. Cedric laughed as he turned back towards the goblet. He gingerly walked up to the goblet, a small slip of paper balancing between his fingers, and with one swift movement, the paper with his name on it had been thrown into and engulfed by the blue flames.
Applause erupted from the students as the boy exited the circle while Clover, Juliette and Hugo were quick to tackle the boy in a hug, all of them smiling from ear to ear while those around congratulated Cedric. The four friends stood back, allowing the boy to be patted on the back and complimented. As soon as they'd all dispersed once more, Cedric turned back to his friends with a joyous expression.
"Kitchen then?" The boy offered but just as Clover went to respond, a loud chorus of cheering echoed through the hall. Fred and George Weasley came running into the Hall holding two vials of a blue-ish potion. The girl scanned the twins before turning to Cedric with a small smile.
"Can we stay for just five more minutes?" The girl pleaded, her eyes following The Weasley's as they cracked up. With a slow nod of agreement from Cedric, Clover linked her arm with his and dragged him over to an empty spot in the hall.
"You guys can stay but I'm going to head to the kitchens," Juliette stated as she promptly pulled Hugo by the arm. The two disappeared out of the Hall doors, leaving Clover and Cedric behind. The girl turned her attention back to the twins as applause and scattered laughter erupted from the students as Fred and George high-fived as many people as they could.
