Hey guys, back at it again. Give me some reviews, I'd really appriciate it.
Disclaimer: I don't even own them, except Charlie. I think every girl is a little bit of Charlie
Cedric eventually was caught when he went to class, by Professor McGonagall who was not the least bit amused by it
That night Charlie was in the library with Faye, catching up on homework she missed while she was knocked out. Reading her astronomy book, her mind was drifting away, while Faye was trying to teach her the lesson. "So this would be called what?" Faye asked her, but Charlie wasn't paying attention, "Hello!" calling to her, but Charlie wasn't paying attention. Faye grabbed a book; slowly lifting it up she quickly dropped it on the table. Causing Charlie to jump, "Earth to Charlie! Where are you?" she called to her. Charlie was shaking her head rigorously, "Sorry Faye. I really am trying to pay attention." telling her with honesty. Faye sighed, she knew Charlie wasn't in the best mood, due to all the rumors and problems with Cedric, "It has been a pain in the ass kind of a day, hasn't it?" asking her. Charlie just nodded her head as she gazed at the books, "Yes it has been. And I feel like it might get worse."
"No. It can't."
"Why do you say that?"
"Because with every bad, has a good!"
"Like what?"
"Like . . . the Halloween ball!"
"That's good?"
"Yeah! It is! We get to dance, have fun, even dress up-"
"I already feel like I'm dressed up, like a clown."
"Come one Charlie I'm trying to cheer you up and your bringing this whole conversation down."
"Sorry."
"Put it this way, you and I are going to find boys to dance with. Forget about dates! Dates will just hold us down. Besides, you need to teach me a few dancing tricks."
"Well . . . it does make up for it. And your right, you do need it."
"Need what?"
"Dancing tricks, you suck at it!"
"I don't-"
The Librarian, lowering their voice, quickly shushed them and putting their heads back into the book, they continued to study.
Weeks had passed and Cedric still wasn't himself, he was just a bumbling fool doing things he would never do. Such as coming late to class, causing trouble to the first years, flirting with the girls, showing off with his wand, jinxing other classmate's potions, etc. Charlie, of course, tried not to pay attention but it was hard when everyone was talking about him. Though Cedric hardly bothered Charlie, she felt like she was missing out on something. Everyone was involved with the laughter, except for her. But what got Charlie the most, was the fact that he was now more involved with Ann. At time she would find him and Ann talking and laughing, Ann would move closer to him, or hit him in the arm playfully, or even lean on his arm. Charlie would look away and shake her head. Though there was something more building inside her, she just couldn't find it.
Ann was willing to make this a great opportunity, especially when she was in a big crowd where everyone could see. Holding onto him and saying loudly of how much she loves to have him around and how good friend of a friend he is.
Charlie was in the library studying when she could hear Ann talking loudly of how she wanted to go with Cedric to the next Hogmeade trip. Cedric sounded hesitant at first, but Ann continued to chatter on about what they would do, what stores they would go to, as if she was planning the whole day. While the other students listened to their conversations, Charlie banged her head on the book, hoping she would shut up, but Ann continued to blurt out the whole conversation so that everyone could hear. Unable to concentrate, she stood up and walked to them, Ann who saw her coming wrapped her arms around Cedric's arm, ready to protect him. Charlie, who saw that, had a quick thought in her head of how she wanted to bash her in the head, but faded away when she approached them. Cedric whose face lit up, "Hey Charlie! What's going on?" asking her, "Funny you should ask Cedric because, I can't quite study when you and your love bird are talking loud. So I'd really appreciate it if you keep it down." she asked in a calm and nice tone, looking over to Ann she said, "I'd rather not know your whole life story and what you plan on doing."
Cedric who smiled back, "Sorry Charlie, I didn't think we were talking that loud." he told her. Charlie just nodded her head and walked away from them, when Ann called to her, Charlie slowly turned to her, "Oh Charlie! I was just wondering, if you wanted to join Cedric and I when we got to Hogsmeade." giving a rather sick smile with her eyebrow cocked, Charlie's fist clinched, growling in her mind, she said, "No thank you. I think I'll be fine." but Cedric intervened, "Why not? Come along with us!" asking her. Charlie just shook her head, "I wouldn't want you to come between you two. But thank you anyways." she politely said without losing her grip, she walked away from them and back to her books.
It was useless now, she couldn't pay attention, after what Ann had asked her and how Cedric insisted. Ready to wring both of them out, she could still hear them. Charlie packed her books and stormed out of the library.
