Avril regained conscience quickly, and awoke to Tom standing over Cedric's
lifeless body.
"Is he...........dead?" Avril asked. Tom bent down and placed two fingers on his neck to see if there was a pulse. Cedric's eye was already swelling up and turning black and blue.
"No. He's just knocked out. He should wake up soon. We should get out of here before he does." Tom said pulling Avril up by the wrists. Then they tool off out of the locker rooms where they met up with Elle.
"What happened?" Elle asked.
"Tell you about it when we get inside, because it wouldn't be too good to be seen out here with Cedric in the shape he is" Tom said pointing towards the Gryffindor team coming down the field. The three took off at a run towards the school, but they weren't fast enough. Katie ran over to say "Hello" and Fred, George, and Oliver followed behind her.
"I'll meet you in dorm." Avril whispered as she happily waved to her oncoming friends. Tom and Elle agreed and headed into the castle.
"Hey!" Katie said to Avril.
"Hello." Avril replied.
"Meet me tomorrow in the 1st year transfiguration room at 12 o'clock. Okay?" Katie said.
"Sure, but I gotta go." Avril said goodbye and then followed her other friend's into the school.
Avril entered her dorm and found Elle and Tom sitting on the beds.
"There you are." Elle said.
"What exactly is going on?" Avril asked suspiciously.
"We think Cedric is, like, well, possessed." Tom said.
"By what?"
"Something.........evil?" Elle pointed out. Avril rolled her eyes.
"Well whatever is wrong with him.....we're gonna get to the bottom of this. Him dumping you and then dating his cousin is just.......eck!" Tom said. Elle giggles slightly but stopped when Avril glared at her with icy blue eyes. Elle looked shocked. Avril never had evil eyes; only happy, and the occasional sad or disappointed. But then her eyes became calmer, and she slightly smiled back at a relieved Elle.
"I'm gonna go get ready for bed." Avril said
"Yea, me too. Goodnight ladies!" Tom said jokingly. Elle and Avril put on their black and yellow pajamas (for hufflepuff) and brushed their teeth. Elle fell asleep fast, but Avril did not have as much luck. She tossed and turned, but could not seem to find sleep. At midnight she silently crept upstairs to the common room. House elves were quietly setting presents underneath the giant Christmas tree. Snow was falling heavily, and had already built up on the window sill. Avril settled herself into one of the soft chairs, and wrapped a blanket around her. The dancing flames in the fireplace kept her warm, and before long, she was drifting off to sleep. Which was why she wasn't aware of the person following her.
It was Cedric. Silently he walked over to Avril. He shook her slightly and she stirred but a moment, and did not wake up. He shook her again, and her eyes slowly opened. She moaned lightly as Cedric came into focus. HER eyes shot open and she pulled her wand out from her pajamas.
"Woah! Aves what's gotten into you?" Cedric asked. Avril pointed her wand at him cautiously.
"Oh c'mon Cedric don't play games with me! Just a few hours ago you tried to kill me!" Avril pointed out.
"What are you talking about?" Cedric asked innocently. "I've been in the hospital for the past week." Avril dropped her wand. Her jaw trembled as she looked around the room. What was happening? Was Cedric telling the truth? Avril collapsed onto the giant rug before the fireplace and cried, one thing she had become accustomed too. Cedric dropped down next to her and held her, something they hadn't done for a long time it seemed. Avril suddenly didn't care what had happened in the past week, and soon found herself holding onto Cedric's neck as he brought her back to her dorm. He kissed her goodnight and then walked to the door to leave.
"Wait." Avril whispered. Cedric turned and walked over to her four poster and sat down on it. "Are we still going out?" Avril asked, to see if he had truly been in the hospital.
"Last time I checked we were." Cedric whispered back.
"Is Cho Chang your cousin?"
"No" Cedric said feeling kind of weird. After a moment of silence Cedric kissed Avril's forehead and then left.
