"Looking hot with that prefect badge Cedric," Beth joked.
"I would have to agree," Emily said as she came up to give Cedric a kiss. "I missed you baby." She then gave Beth a look meaning get the hell out of here.
"I'm going to go find the others," Beth said hoping Cedric would say something. But he kept on kissing Emily.
"What's bugging you?" Ron asked when he saw Beth.
"Nothing," Beth replied quickly.
"You are lying. I can tell," spoke Harry.
"My brother is ignored me and I hate his girlfriend," Beth replied. "He isn't himself around him. He didn't even say anything like tell them I say hi or something when I said I was going to come find you guys."
"Fred and George don't ignore me even when they are with girls," Ginny replied. "You need to talk to him."
"I can't, she's always with him," Beth replied back.
"Did someone see you?" Malfoy asked as Beth walked into the dark compartment.
"No, I told them I was going to the bathroom," Beth replied.
The two of the hugged and began catching up. Beth told him about her summer in France, her brother and his girlfriend, and how bad she wanted to find out who her parents were. Malfoy told Beth about his summer, his father's constant pressure on him, and how his mother is still worrying about him.
"Draco, why do you hate Harry so much?" Beth asked, hoping to get a truthful answer.
"I really don't. Its my father. Her hates Harry because Harry defeated You-Know-Who and my father was a Death Eater. Personally, I'm grateful because otherwise as soon as I turned 17, I would become a Death Eater and I wouldn't want to. You can't tell anyone, promise?"
"I promise," replied Beth as she left because she had to get back.
"Hey guys. Do you know where my sister is?" Cedric asked well he was on his prefect rounds.
"I think she went to the bathroom, but I don't think she wants to talk to you," Ginny responded.
"Why is that?" Cedric asked confused.
"Why should she bother to talk to you when all you do is ignore her? She doesn't like your girlfriend either and your girlfriend hates her," Ron stated.
"She never told me that," Cedric stated in return.
"That's because you never give me the time of day anymore," Beth replied.
"I don't mean to ignore you, but if I do let me know," Cedric replied.
"I can't because when ever I tried your girlfriend needs you to do something and then gives me an evil look meaning he's my boyfriend now, not your brother. And she hates me." Beth answered back.
"Hey, baby," Emily spoke. What are you doing?"
"I'm having a conversation with my sister. Do you have a problem with it?" Cedric replied coolly while pulling her arms off of him.
"Yeah, actually I do because you said you'd come back in five minutes and it has been fifteen," she replied back.
"Well, I'm sorry but my sister is an important part of my life," Cedric replied.
"So what? Aren't I important?" asked Emily as innocent as possible.
"You are somewhat important but not as important as my sister," Cedric replied. "And you look like you can't handle the fact that she is an important part of my life and I can't accept that, so we are over."
"She's not even your real sister," Emily replied coldly as she stomped away.
"You behave now children. I don't need to write to your mothers saying you have been bad and the school year hasn't even started yet," Cedric said with a grin as he walked away.
