Disclaimer: I own Harry Potter. Yeah freaking right I wish! But I don't. Ms. Rowling owns them and I hope to get the DVD of the seventh movie part 1 soon! I only own my characters.
Chapter 24
NPOV
"Becky what are you talking about?" I asked.
"Don't try to play dumb with me" she replied.
"I'm not and how the hell did you find out? I for one didn't tell you and neither did Cedric that's for sure" I said.
Becky looked around before she landed on me again. "I didn't mean to snoop" she said.
"What did you do?" I asked.
"I was in your room months ago looking for things for your bridal shower and that's when I found your wand" she replied.
"The one in my shelf that I got at the souvenir shop" I said, reciting the short storyline on how I got my "fake" wand.
"That's what I thought it was until your journal fell open" she said.
"You found my journal?" I asked shockingly.
"I went to go look for pictures for the shower. Your journal fell out and I went to pick it up to put it away and then I saw this thing you wrote that you got sucked into a movie and I read it" she said. "I didn't think anything of it since I thought that was a dream until I read about your time in London. I'm so sorry I didn't mean to snoop."
I only sat on my bed in shock. I couldn't believe that my cousin would even do such a thing. This wasn't how it was supposed to be.
"I can't believe it. You haven't told anyone, have you?" I asked.
"No one else knows" she replied.
"I don't understand why would you do that?"
"I didn't do it on purpose. It was an accident" she said.
"I get that but don't you think you should've asked first or something like that" I said, getting out of my bed and walking into the living room.
"Look it wouldn't have made sense if I had to borrow pictures for a shower that was a surprise to you" she said.
"I get that but did you ever think to look for pictures somewhere else?" I snapped.
"Why are you being mean?"
"I'm being mean? I'm not being mean. I'm pissed at the fact that you read my dark secret and the face that my fiancé hasn't returned my calls for days and I'm scared that the wedding might be called off since I've put in the time and effort for it to happen which I don't even think it'll happen. And you call that mean?" I said, exasperated.
I sat down on the couch with my head in my hands trying to grasp on what was happening. I don't even know if the wedding is going to happen. It shouldn't take Cedric that long for him to cool down, should it?
"Hey" Becky said, as she sat on the coffee table in front of me. "How come you never told me what happened?"
"Would you think it's childish to say that you wouldn't believe me if I told you?" I asked.
"I would think so but you're my cousin. Nick, you've been through so much when your parents died. We are closer ever since then. I just don't understand why you never told me. I mean we always shared secrets" she said.
"I know it's just the fact that it actually happened, I didn't want to believe it" I said, looking at my cousin. "I mean I was just joking around but I never thought that I would actually be in Hogwarts."
"Are you going to tell everyone else in our family?" she asked.
"I want to but I don't know if they'll believe me. I'll be put in the nut house for sure" I replied.
"You would honestly think that?"
"Do you think that?" I asked.
"You want to know I think?"
"I don't know you tell me" I replied, leaning back against the couch.
"I believe you. I mean I knew something was off because there was absolutely no way someone can travel from London to here that fast" she said. "And also the fact that you have magic now it seems a bit surreal but I can manage."
"Thanks Beck," I said.
"So, how does this magic thin work?" she asked.
"Do you really want to know?" I asked, raising my eyebrows.
"I don't know. That could come in handy so that way I won't have to be late for work" she replied.
I shook my head as I leaned over towards the pillows. While she was more accepting into me being half witch, I couldn't help but worry more about Cedric.
"You're still worried about him, aren't you?" She asked.
"Isn't it obvious? He hasn't called or anything. I get he wants time but it shouldn't be this long" I replied.
"Maybe there is some way for you to get to him" Becky suggested.
I sat up in my seat. I couldn't believe my cousin gave me an idea.
"Are you sure about this?" Becky asked me later that night.
"This isn't like him. I have to do something" I replied. I threw my sweater over my tank top as I tossed my sneakers on. I slipped my phone and money in my shorts before I headed out into the living room.
"I told work I have an emergency to take care of and I need time off and let your parents and brother know that I have to go out of town" I said.
"What will happen if this doesn't work?"
"It has to work" I said, looking up at her. "I need to get to him. I have a bad feeling."
"And how do you suppose on how you're going to get there?"
I picked up a small bag on the coffee table and waved it towards her. "With this" I said.
"A pile of dust?"
"It's some traveling dust. All you have to do is say where you're going, toss it in the air and poof, you're there" I replied.
"Maybe I should pick some of this up" she muttered.
"Believe me, you don't want this" I said.
"Wait!"
I turned around from the fireplace as Becky ran into my arms. We hugged each other tight. I think this was the first time we hugged since we were kids or something like that.
"Just be careful" she said.
"Always am" I said.
She took a step back from me as I got myself situated as I reached in the bag for the dust. I took a handful as I stood there. My cousin looked at me and nodded as I returned a nod back.
"Diagon Alley" I said, tossing the dust on me.
I was in the green flames until I landed somewhere in the dark alley. I looked around and I didn't see anything that I was familiar with.
Where the hell am I?
A/n: Um, hi? I know it's been almost a year since I updated this story and I'm super sorry! However I've seen the seventh part 1 movie which did let me get my groove back in this story. Let's just say that things got in the way but I'm back!
I hope to update this story frequent as I did before. It's going to be a big adjustment to writing again for this story but I'll never leave a story unfinished. I do want to finish my other stories I started so we'll see what happens.
You know what to do! I hope I still got my readers. I thank you guys whoever alerted me, whichever. You guys rock as always! Thank you so much for your patience and support.
Signing out for now,
