A/n: Just to clear things up a bit, with the whole Nikki/Amos relationship type, behind the scenes, as I would call it, he was a bit iffy on her and Cedric together in Trapped in London. He was fine with it until they got engaged. More of his feelings is explained as the story goes. Trust me on this and enjoy!

Disclaimer: No I don't own Harry Potter. They belong to Ms. Rowling and I only own Nikki, Mara, Bryan, Nikki's family, Patches and Cedric's mom.

Chapter 4

"I don't know Josh" I replied after thinking about it.

"Okay well, um here's my cell number if you ever change your mind" Josh said, writing down his cell and gave it to me. "It was nice seeing you." With that said, he went in the other direction.

I looked down at the number he gave me. Should I even bother? I crumpled up the paper and shoved it in my bag. Maybe some advice would help me out. There was no way I was going to tell Cedric. Yet.

"Everything alright?" I heard his velvet voice getting me out of my trance.

"Yeah, I'm fine, is everything okay with you?" I asked.

"Yeah, just mum writing to see how I was, and the future daughter-in-law" he replied.

"What about your dad?" I asked.

"He's alright, I guess he can't wait until I come home. Work apparently isn't the same when I'm not there" he replied.

"Oh" I said.

"Don't worry about him right now, why don't we try doing the flowers?" he suggested. I nodded and we got down to business. Wedding business I mean. We stayed at the shop for a half hour, deciding on the flowers. I did have an idea on what the bouquets would look like.

After those were done, I just need to do the flower for the centerpieces and the flowers would be done. I didn't know how much planning a wedding would be taking a lot of time. I do want it to be perfect.

I just hope it has a fairytale ending to it.


It was starting to get late. Cedric and I managed to get the writing for the wedding invitations down to the printer so those will be done within a week or two. We decided to have some lunch and I had sent a text to Becky about the flowers while we were sitting at our table.

"How is that even possible?" Cedric asked.

"What?" I asked confusingly.

"You punching words on your phone. I've never even seen such a thing" he replied.

"May I remind you that it is the 21st century and that technology has advanced as well" I said. "Sadly enough, I do rely on the well, you know, magic."

"Does your family know?" he asked.

"No" I replied.

"Nikki…"

"What am I suppose to do about it? I've got the wedding and work on my mind the last thing I want is for my family to think I'm a wizard" I hissed lowly so no one who hear.

"Love, you got to relax. I'm sure they'll still love you no matter what" he said.

" I know, I just need time to tell them you know" I said.

"Yeah, just don't do it before its too late" he said.

Our food came then and we ate in comfortable silence. We did manage small talk, but my mind was on what happened back at the flower shop with Josh. I was playing with something that I shouldn't even worry about. I mean, whatever happened with Josh, which last what only a few months two years ago. Maybe I should get closure on the past.

"Ready love?" Cedric asked getting me out of my trance.

"What? Yeah let's go" I replied quickly.

"You sure you're okay? You seem a bit off" he said.

"I'm fine really" I said with a smile.


"You still up?" I asked Becky later that night.

"Yeah, killer exam next week, I want to get some studying done" she replied.

"Can I ask you something?" I asked.

"Yeah, what's up?"

"I ran into Josh at the flower shop today" I said.

"Cedric didn't see him?" Beck asked.

"No his mom called him so he was taking care of that" I replied. "I don't know why he was there to begin with but he saw me and we talked for a bit."

"What did he want?" she asked.

"He wants to meet up sometime" I replied.

"I hope he does know you're engaged" she said.

"He does, I guess maybe he wants to talk about what happened" I said.

"Does Cedric know?" she asked. I was silent for a moment, looking down at my water bottle I had in my hand. "I guess not then" she mumbled.

"What am I suppose to say? He was almost pissed when I told him about Josh. I'm not going to go through that when I tell him that I might have to meet up with an ex boyfriend? I don't think so" I said lowly, hoping he wouldn't hear.

"Want my advice?" she asked.

"Is it a good one or bad?" I asked skeptically.

"Relax, don't worry. All I have to say is that try to give Josh a call. See what he wants and then be rid of him for good. You are getting married in almost a year so just let go of the past" she replied.

"I guess, I mean I don't see why a lunch won't do any harm" I said, agreeing with her.


The next day, I got called into work since the clinic was short staffed. I felt bad leaving Cedric behind, but he did assure me that he would be fine on his own and wont show off any non magic folk any magic.

That would be the talk of the town.

I was at the clinic over two hours now. It's not that I didn't mind being there but I didn't know how long I was going to be there. I told Marissa that I was going to take a breather for a second and she was fine with it.

I stepped outside of the building and pulled out my phone and a piece of paper and dialed the number.

"Hey it's me from yesterday. I think we can do something like meet up or something" I said.

A/n: I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. This was meant for Monday but I got sidetracked and until I'm done with this semester this story will be updated sporadically and then when the summer comes, it'll be back on schedule. I'm just dealing with school and my crappy job and yeah.

So how will this all fare out? Will Cedric know about the secret meeting? Stick around to find out these answers!
