A/N- this is a short chapter sorry :/
Cetus left his last lesson with Draco, Hermione and Lupus to go to dinner in the Great Hall with Lucy trailing behind them. "So Lucy what do you want to do after dinner?" Lupus asked making the girl jump.
"Oh I usually do my homework after dinner," she whispered.
"That's OK we can do that. Can't we guys?" Cetus asked.
"Of course we can. We don't want to get behind," Hermione butted in. Draco and Lupus grunted in agreement but otherwise made no comment, both boys hated homework and studying but hated getting behind. "We should start making a study schedule," Hermione said suddenly causing all three boys to groan but for Lucy to smile and nod her head, everyone liked it when Lucy smiled as it made her seem younger and less Snape like.
As the five children arrived at the Great Hall they split off, Draco and Lupus went off to the Slytherin table, Hermione and Cetus went off the Gryffindor table and Lucy went to the Hufflepuff table on her own. "Hay Cetus! Hay Hermione," Fred and George both said at the same time when the two took their place at the table.
"Hay Fred hay George," Harry replied.
"Where have you two been all day?" Fred asked.
"Lessons and by the lake," Hermione answered after swallowing her mouth full.
"Ohhh," George replied as he stuffed more food into his mouth.
The rest of the meal passed in silence apart from the occasional belch from the Weasley Twins.
After Cetus finished his dinner he spotted Lucy leaving the hall and tugged on Hermione's sleeve and pointed at Lucy when he had her attention. Hermione nodded and they both got up to follow her with Draco and Lupus behind them. "Lucy wait up!" Cetus called and Lucy stopped and turned around.
"Oh sorry. I thought you had already gone because I couldn't see you in the hall," she apologised.
"That's OK. It's a good job I spotted you," Cetus laughed.
"Yeah," Lucy smiled and carried on walking with her friends to the library.
Once they finished their homework they all went back outside for a bit before curfew when they once again went their separate ways.
That night Cetus lay in his bed and thought of his friends and how much his life had changed it made him feel happy but terrified at the same time when he thought of Voldermort and what he would do if he caught his parents.
When Cetus eventually fell asleep his dreams where full of nightmares and memories he wished he could forget.
