Pick and Choose

L.H

The weekend flew by. Me Piper and Lulu hung out almost all of Sunday. I haven't seen Louis or Draco since Saturday. It was like a had some sorta of tension with both of them but I couldn't figure out why.

It was lunch time which meant half the day was done. I actually didn't see Draco in my classes which kind of concerned me but it shouldn't matter according to him "he couldn't stand being friends with me." I still don't know why those words hurt so much. Maybe it's just because no one should be treated like that in the first place. But it's Draco, what else can you expect.

I was sitting at lunch in my own train of thoughts when I feel my arm get poked. "Come on mate I asked three times, HELLOOO!" I glance over and see a fellow Hufflepuff named Aurora looking at me. "Oh goodness I'm sorry Aurora what do you need?l I say looking at the table and all the food options on it.

"Just the fruit bowl I don't have one near." She says. I hand the bowl to her and she thanks me.

Lunch went by fast and I decided to go back to the common room to spend my free period. I enter the common room and no one is in there. Perfect actually I can be alone. Just as a lay back on one of the couches Louis walks in with a girl. I've seen this girl before but I couldn't remember her. She's a Gryffindor as I can tell by the robe. Louis gives me a nod as him and the Gryffindoor make way to the boys dorms. What the hell. Is he seeing someone and u didn't know? I mean we just kissed like two nights ago. I continued reading but I ended up reading the same page 3 times with my mind wondering off.

Around 15 minutes later Cedric and two of his friends walk in together. The two guys head up to the boys dorms and Cedric comes by me and sits. "Are you good today? You looked a bit off at lunch." He says giving me a look.

"Ya I'm good, is Louis seeing anyone?" I ask without hesitation. I immediately regret asking so fast but I couldn't help it I needed to know where that girl was from. He scratches his head. "Um, not that I know of why."

"Oh um well he came in with some Gryffindor and they went to the boys dorms. She looked familiar but I didn't know where from." I say awkwardly. His small grin that he always has on his face turns into a frown. "Blonde or brown hair?" He asks.

"Brown and very curly." I say scared what's about to happen next. He stands up. "That's Alyssa. She's the girl that got caught sneaking into the house. He better not be shagging her."

"I-I don't think he would not at this time of day anyways. I sit up a little nervous still from Cedrics reaction.

He's tense I can see it. Then he loosens, his shoulders dropped and he let out a breath. He sits back down next to me. "She's a whore anyways." He breaths. I slapped him. Not a hard slap. But one to shock him. "Don't you ever disrespect a woman like that. What did she ever do to you? How would mum feel if she heard you call a woman that." I say now frustrated with him.

Linda and Jack Diggory
My mum, she's truly my best friend. She's the best person you'll ever meet. She was sorted into Ravenclaw. My father, Jack, was sorted into Hufflepuff which explains me and Cedric. She's big on woman's rights and respecting a woman, as well as my father. They are the best people to be around. Always so cheerful and happy. Mum loves reading in this chair in the corner of the family room. Either there or the kitchen. She was supposed to be into Hufflepuff but she was so smart the hat decided Ravenclaw. My father is the kindest soul you'll ever meet. I've never hesitated to bring a friend home to meet either of them.

He puts his hand on his cheek. "Your right sorry, I guess I'm just still a little hurt over her. I mean I got caught with her then found out the next day she cheated on me." He says lowly. I forgot about all of that. He never told mum, she assumed he ended it because of the trouble he got into with her.
