Chapter 66: The Broken Promise
Months passed since the last task and before Zoey knew it she had finished all her exams and was now standing with Fred, George, Echo and Bridgit, looking over at the giant maze in the middle of them all. Zoey bit her lip and hugged her robes closer to her body. The night sky was already spooky, add in the cold night breeze and a maze filled with who knows what, that could only spell disaster for the young Emeraude.
The four champions stood near the gate with their parents; Harry with Mrs. Weasley and Bill Weasley. Zoey played with the ends of her sleeves as she watched him and Cedric. Her two closest friends were going to enter the maze. Who knows what could happen to them?
"I'm scared for them," Bridgit said, breaking the silence that surrounded the group.
"Do you know what's going to happen in there?" Zoey looked at her, "Anything in that maze?"
"Yeah, and nothing is gonna be pretty about it," Bridgit answered, releasing a breath into her palms. It was cold out tonight.
"One thing for sure," Echo spoke silently, "There's something bound to happen"
"Wonder what could be in there," George told Fred, "Wanna bet some of those animals Hagrid keep are in there?"
"No doubt about it," Fred grinned.
"Nope, no animals. The maze is gonna be jinxed to control them and turn them against one another," Bridgit whispered, but only Zoey and Echo heard her.
Zoey gulped and looked back at the champions. "I think… I'll have a chat with Harry and Cedric before they enter the maze and all."
She walked passed Bridgit and Echo and made her way passed the other students. Several times a student would grunt in annoyance but Zoey could care less, all she wanted to do was to reach her friends in time. She bit her lip when she finally reached the grassy grounds and made her way to Harry first. She enveloped him in a hug, bringing the attention of Mrs. Weasley and Bill to her.
"Oh, Hello dear," Mrs. Weasley gave her a smile, "Here to wish Harry good luck?"
"Hello, Mrs. Weasley, Bill," she nodded at the respective Weasley in greeting before looking back at Harry. She gave him a smile before wiping some dirt of his face. "The task hasn't even began and you're already dirty," she said to him fondly. She really did have a connection with the boy.
Harry gave a laugh and wiped his face, though it did nothing. He then looked back at the maze. "What do you think is in there?"
"I don't know," Zoey told him, "All I know is that nothing good could be in there"
"The school won't put anything in there that could kill us, would they?" Harry asked with worry
Zoey felt her worry rise at the idea but instead of freaking out she took a deep calming breath and placed a shaky hand on Harry's shoulder. "I'm sure they won't," she said to him, "I mean, it's a school. They aren't suppose to do that"
"I guess you're right," Harry said
"But, even thought. Just… just be careful okay?" Zoey asked him, "I want you to be back in one piece"
"Of course," Harry offered a smile, "I'll be careful," he paused, "I'm sure you would want to give the same words of wisdom to Cedric?"
"If you don't mind"
"Go ahead," Harry gave her a little push towards the direction of Cedric. Zoey gave him a wave before making her way towards Cedric. Zoey looked up at the audience and saw that a handful of them were focusing their attention at her. No doubt about it, they were wondering why she was even down there in the first place. Zoey felt self-conscious. Maybe it wasn't a good idea to be there. She was just about to turn to go back up to her place when a hand caught hers. She whirled around to see Cedric.
"Hey," he greeted her.
"Hey," she replied before enveloping him in a hug, she had to stand on her tip toes, "Promise me you'll come back alive?"
Cedric gave a laugh and patted her back. "Of course," he said, "I wouldn't want to come back in a different state"
"That's no joking matter," Zoey said to him seriously, "There are a lot of things there that you might not expect to see and if –"
"I'll be fine, Zoey. I have my wand at the ready at all times and I studied and practiced a lot of good spells before this day. I'll say I'm well prepared and I promise you I will come back alive," Cedric smiled, though he looked slightly worried at the concept of going into the maze, "Now, would you give me one last hug and a wish of good luck before the task begins?"
"Good luck," Zoey breathed out, hugging him once more before smiling at his parents and heading back to the stairs. She gave her friends one last wave and once again squeezed her way through the other students to get back to Echo and the others. She stumbled a bit and tripped over several feet but she reached her placed just in time to see Cedric and Harry enter the maze. A few minutes after, Viktor was let into the maze and soon it was Fleur's turn. Now, all champions were in the maze and once again, no one would know what was going to happen.
"I just wished Harry doesn't win," Bridgit said, putting her face in her hands. She really hated knowing what was going to happen.
"What?" Fred asked in outrage, he was pro-Harry, "Why?"
"Cause if he does, something horrible is going to happen," Bridgit answered, her answer barely understandable because her face was in her hands.
"What horrible thing could possibly happen?" George asked, looking at the maze
"Things that you could never imagine," Bridgit answered, praying to Merlin that Harry would lose. At her vague answers, Fred and George directed their full attention to the maze, blocking out every unnecessary sounds.
Zoey looked at Bridgit. "What's going to happen in there?
"The cup… it's not a normal cup," Bridgit answered, facing Zoey, "It's a portkey"
"A portkey?" Zoey tried to keep her voice quiet, "A portkey to where?"
"To a graveyard… where they'll be waiting for him," Bridgit answered, "They need him to bring him back. They… they need his blood."
"They? Him? Whom are we talking about exactly?" Zoey lowered her voice even more.
"The other Death Eaters…. They'll bee there and they need Harry's blood to bring Voldemort back," Bridgit answered, her eyes getting teary. "I should have warned him," she added.
"Oh now," Zoey said with worry lacing her own voice. She looked back at the maze and her eyes widened when she saw a bright light coming up from a certain part in the maze. It looked as if someone had casted a patronus charm. As soon as it came, it left and there were still no signs of any other activity going on inside the maze. The crowd began to chatter and guess on who had casted the spell. Zoey blocked them all off. Her main focus was on what was happening inside, she didn't need the audience's guesses. They were never that good.
Minutes passed and the air was now filled with loud spells that were used to either fend off something or break apart a wall. Zoey didn't know, all that was on her mind was what Bridgit had told her. Twenty to almost thirty minutes has passed and everyone's attention was directed to the red sparks that flew to the sky. Medi-Wizards and other authorities entered the maze with a stretcher.
"Who do you think would be out first?" Bridgit asked, trying to get a better view.
"Fleur. It's not likely she'll last long," Echo breathed out, rubbing her hands together for warmth.
Zoey looked over at her friend and saw George wrap his arm around her waist to share his body warmth with her, Echo looked up and gave him a smile. Zoey smiled at the couple before looking back at the maze. Echo was right. It was Fleur. Zoey wondered if she should have stayed with the other healers. Maybe she could help like during the second task but something inside Zoey told her that these kinds of injuries were something she couldn't heal with her training.
She gulped. How long till the next champion sends out red sparks?
Ten to fifteen minutes had passed since Fleur sent red sparks and soon, the sky was decorated by it once more. Zoey felt her heart give a leap. What if it was Harry? Or even Cedric? If it was, were they all right? Were they still alive? She didn't know. The only time Zoey found herself being able to breath again was when she saw Viktor Krum laying on the stretcher.
Fred gave a whistle. "Never thought that he would go out that fast"
Zoey gave him a look. "Even Viktor isn't invincible," she told him before looking over at Bridgit. "Harry and Cedric are still in there," she told her with worry.
Bridgit didn't say anything. She was too worried to mind everything else around her. She was sweating despite the cold weather and Zoey and Echo noticed it. Bridgit wished that Harry would be one of the first to come out, but it seemed as if luck was against her.
Five to ten minutes had passed and her head suddenly began to ache. She reached up to her temples and rubbed them. It was as if she was being hit by a rock. An image suddenly flashed in her head. It was an image of Harry and Cedric landing on the graveyard.
"Are you alright?" Zoey asked, noting Bridgit's problem.
"No…," Bridgit whispered, not referring to Zoey's question. It was the scene that was playing in her head.
"No…," she whispered again, as she saw Pettigrew and Voldemort come out.
"No…," she said again, now a bit louder as the Death Eaters began to arrive.
"Cedric!" Harry shouted, as they were now being surrounded.
"Cedric!" Bridgit suddenly shouted, causing her to fall to the ground, Zoey sat down beside her and was starting to panic.
"Bridgit, what' s happening? Zoey asked, as all the students, who had heard Bridgit's scream, were staring at them"
"Cedric…," Bridgit whispered, as she saw his body laying dead on the ground. She saw Pettigrew begin the ceremony and cut off his hand. She was crying now.
"Stop…," she whispered.
"Bridgit," Zoey said, shaking her friend but nothing was getting her attention. She looked over at Fred, George and Echo but they were as confused and worried as she was. Something unexplainable was happening.
She, Bridgit, saw Pettigrew cut Harry with a knife and added a drop of Harry's blood into a cauldron that stood before him.
"No…," Bridgit whispered again. They were gaining attention, but they didn't really care about that now. Dumbledore, hearing the commotion, was making his way towards them, but Bridgit's shout stopped him.
"No!" Bright said, now sobbing.
She saw Voldemort rise, she saw him threaten Harry and she saw how he started to torture the Death Eaters. As the vision vanished, she could only see him releasing Harry from his bound state.
"Maybe you should take her to Madam Pomfrey," Echo said, getting Zoey's attention, but Bridgit snapped out of her trance.
"No…," she said once again and Zoey turned back to her.
"Bridgit's what's wrong?" Zoey asked, and Bridgit suddenly hugged her.
"He's gone… He's back…. Harry," was all she could manage to say
"What?" Zoey asked, her panic rising.
"Cedric… he's…," Bridgit was saying but was stopped when the band began to play. Zoey released Bridgit's hold on her and took a look at the arena. Harry and Cedric were back. Suddenly, the band had stopped playing and there was a collective gasp amongst the crowd nearest to the maze. Zoey's eyes widened.
An ear piercing and heart-breaking scream filled the air and it all came from Zoey. Everyone in the area looked towards her and others at Cedric's corpse but Zoey didn't care. She felt tears well up in her eyes as she pushed every student out of her way and collapsed near Cedric's dead body. She took ragged breaths and touched his face, it was cold and unfeeling. His eyes staring at nothing. She bit her lip as more tears welled up in her eyes. She slowly closed Cedric's and fell to his body, sobbing.
Zoey couldn't believe it; she didn't want to believe it. Just moments ago she was hugging him and wishing him good luck but now, here he lay dead and unmoving. She didn't care what was happening around her, she listened to the cries of those close to him but she didn't care. She licked her lips and looked at Cedric once more. Without knowing, mist began to form at her feet. She had no control over it, not like she did before. She felt her back begin to ache but paid no mind to it. She didn't have control over her own.
"Oh no," came Hermione's voice, "someone stop her!"
"What?" Fred's voice asked.
"Fred, take Zoey away from here," Hermione pleaded the Weasley twin.
"He can't do that," came George, "Can't you see that this is heart breaking enough as it is –"
"No, you don't understand," Hermione cried, "Fred, please, take her away from all this"
Fred, confused and panicked, followed Hermione's request and made his way towards Zoey. His eyes widened when he saw a suspicious sort of mist forming at her feet but shook his head. That was not important right now. The Weasley walked to the Emeraude and scooped her into his arms. He watched as her eyes widened and began to thrash about.
"No! No!" she said in a voice so familiar to him yet foreign at the same time, "Put me back! Don't take me away!"
"Sorry, Zoe," Fred apologized; fixing his hold on her and ignoring the violent hits she gave him. She wouldn't have harmed him anyway, even if she wasn't hysterical. Zoey continued to scream; fight and sob but Fred kept his hold on her. Not ready to let her go. He looked towards his twin and gave him a quick nod before heading back to the castle, away from all this.
They passed by Harry, who was wounded and giving off dry sobs. He was being dragged away by Professor Moody. At the sight of the two, Harry fought his way out of the Professor's grip and ran towards his god sister. He held onto her hand and Zoey's hysterical cries seemed to calm down a bit.
"Zoey… Zoey… Cedirc… he – he," Harry said with ragged breaths, "He wanted me to tell you that he's sorry. Sorry for breaking his promise"
Zoey's eyes widened at his words and a new batch of tears filled her eyes. Fred fixed his hold on her, pressing her closer to his body. Zoey no longer cried out, she was left speechless and trembling. This seemed to worry Fred more; he needed to get her back to the castle. He saw Moody make his way towards Harry but before he could drag him away, Bridgit came to view.
"Stop!" Bridgit said, taking hold of Harry's hand, stopping him from going anywhere with Moody. "You're not taking him anywhere," she continued, making Harry glare at her.
"Let me got you traitor…," Harry whispered, making Bridgit turn to him, still not letting go, "I know you don't trust me at the moment, but please don't go with him," she continued
"Let me go," Harry said again.
"Listen to him, Ms. Parker," Moody said, making Bridgit turn up and glare at him, She let go of Harry's hand and let Moody drag him away. She turned towards Professor Dumbledore, who had made his way towards them not long ago, and he nodded towards her.
She, Bridgit, ran up to Moody and took his drinking container. She opened it, and took a drink. Everyone saw how she started to change and when the transformation was done, she looked exactly like Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody.
"That's polyjuice potion," Hermione, who had followed Dumbledore, shouted, looking as shocked as everyone else in the area.
"Yes," Bridgit answered, in Moody's voice. "This man is not Alastor Moody," she said, pointing at 'Moody'. Harry began to struggle out of his grip, but he held on to him firmly.
Suddenly, the man started to change. His form was starting to morph and he was clutching onto the magical eye. As the others remained silent, Zoey suppressing her sobs, and watched, they saw that he wasn't indeed Moody… he was Barty Crouch Jr.
The man let released Harry and he ran towards Hermione and Ron. When the eye dropped to the ground, Professor Dumbledore walked up to the students as the officials took hold of the criminal and dragged him to one of Hogwarts' many towers, for questioning.
"I think that it's time for you to go to the Hospital Wing," He, Dumbledore, said, referring to Zoey, Harry, Fred and George, Echo, Hermione, Ron and Bridgit (the entire gang had gathered to the spot, planning to head to the Hospital Wing but got caught up in the scene on their way). "The rest of you, go to your dormitories and wait for further instruction"
Zoey sat on one of the Hospital Beds beside Harry as the entire Weasley Family and close friends surrounded them. Dumbledore had entered the Hospital Wing shortly after they all arrived and trailing behind him was Professor Snape and a big black dog. Madam Pomfrey was just about to shoo the dog away but Dumbledore told her otherwise. The dog gave a bark before making his way to Harry, licking his hand before approaching Zoey and whimpering. Zoey swallowed hard and brought a shaky hand to pet the dog as Dumbledore began to give orders to Madam Pomfrey and the others.
"Zoey, are you fine now?" Echo spoke quietly
"Fah – Fi – F –" Zoey closed her mouth. She didn't trust herself to speak. Instead, she just shook her head and continued to pet the dog. She tapped the hospital bed softly and the dog jumped onto it.
Echo swayed slightly to and fro from her heels, nodding. "I'm sorry about Cedric, we all are," she bit her lip.
Zoey looked at the Veela before looking at everyone else in the room. They were all looking at her expectantly. Most, hopeful that she would speak while others wondered if she would break down crying again. Zoey did neither. She continued to pet the dog.
"Well," Dumbledore began after a few more minutes of silence, "I think it's time for two of our number to recognize each other for what they are. Sirius… if you could resume your usual form?"
The dog Zoey was petting looked up at Dumbledore and in an instant transformed into a man who instead of being petted by Zoey, was holding his daughter's hand comfortingly. At the sight of him, Mrs. Weasley let out a scream and leapt of Harry's bed.
"Sirius Black!" She pointed at him while Ron tried to calm her down. Everyone in the room, save for those who already knew, were in shock at the sight of the man. Snape; however, was not pleased at the sight and began an argument. Sirius had left Zoey's side to resume Dumbledore's.
Zoey looked at her father and everyone else in the room before standing up from the bed. Fred made a move towards her but Zoey shook her head. "I think I'll be going to sleep now," she said and Mrs. Weasley offered her the Dreamless Sleeping Potion but Zoey politely declined, "I'll be in my dorm if anyone would need me," she said softly before making her way out of the Hospital Wing and closing the door at her exit. At the sound of the click, Zoey made a mad dash for the Hufflepuff Common Room.
By the time she reached her destination, she was out of breath and sweating. She hurriedly said the passwords, entered the room and collapsed on one of the couches. She hugged her knees to her chest and looked straight at the fire. Many times, when she was troubled she would find herself in this exact place, looking in the fire and Cedric would come down and talk to her. Zoey felt her heart clench. That would never happen again. . He was gone… forever.
Zoey let out a sob.
"Hey," came a greeting
She, Zoey, looked up with hope but her face fell when she saw it was Jane. She was already in her pajamas and she had her wand in her hand. She gave Zoey a small smile before making her way towards the couch and sitting beside the Emeraude.
"I'm sorry about… Cedric," Jane began, "I hear you were pretty close to him"
Zoey shook her head. "He was my nest friend in the Hufflepuff house… my first and only friend…," she said softly.
"Hey, that's not true," Jane said, "I'm your friend"
"But he's been with me since… the beginning," Zoey felt her voice cracking, "And just to have him taken away like that… it hurts" Zoey let out another sob and brought her face into her hands. She felt Jane move closer to her and wrapped and arm around her, bringing her closer so Zoey's head would rest against her shoulder.
"Shh… there there. It would be alright," Jane said in a soft voice.
"Alright? All right? How could it be alright?" Zoey cried, "He's gone! Dead! Not coming back! Nothing could be all right! You don't understand. You didn't know him like I did!"
Jane rubbed Zoey's back. "I may not know how you feel but I know other people who do," she said, "Think about Cedric's parents? Losing a son? How about his girlfriend Cho? How do you think she feels? They all lost someone close to them. You aren't alone in this"
Zoey said nothing for a while but soon took a breath. "It just… hurts…. I mean… how would you feel when your boyfriend, Aiden – was it? Was suddenly taken away from you? What would you do if you just lost him?"
"I would do the same thing I did two years ago," Jane spoke, "I would do everything in my power to get him back"
"W – What?" Zoey looked at Jane with wide eyes.
"Me and Aiden. We had our tough times before we began dating," Jane began, "I don't want to get to detailed on the topic but long story short. I come from a pureblood family, he's muggleborn and they didn't approve of him."
"But if they didn't approve?"
"What do I care? It's my life. I only get to live it once and I never accepted the pureblood ways anyway. At first, I would avoid Aiden but soon, I found it impossible. Sure, there were certain people who would get in our way, tear us apart but then I realized I didn't care. One life and I only had one chance with him," Jane paused, "I didn't want to lose that chance. No matter how much he said he loves me, I knew he wouldn't wait for me forever so I took that chance and you know what? It as worth it"
Jane held onto Zoey's shoulders. "I know losing Cedric is tough but do you really think he would want you to be crying over him? Sure, I didn't know him as well as you do but I know for certain he would not want you to be this way. I know it's healthy to show how you feel but don't let that eat you up. Live a little," Jane bit her lip, "Sorry if what I said was a bit insensitive…I was just saying things from the top of my head"
Zoey eyes widened with realization and she felt her heart beat faster and faster with each passing second. Jane was right, she couldn't just keep crying over Cedric. He wouldn't want that. He would want her to live the rest of her life, freely. Jane was also right with only having one life and one chance. Zoey stood up from the couch.
"Whoa, feeling better now?" Jane asked, shocked at Zoey's sudden movements.
"There's something I have to do," Zoey said before smiling at Jane, "Thanks for the help. I'll see you again tomorrow" and she, Zoey, left the Common Room without giving Jane a chance to reply. Faster and faster Zoey ran as she tried to make her way in time. She dodged statues and suits of armors and skidded past corners. She was already huffing and puffing but was still nowhere near the Hospital Wing. She was just about to slow down her pace when she caught sight of a red head walking her way.
Zoey felt her face light up at the sight and ran faster than ever. The red head took a step back in shock and stumbled a bit when Zoey launched herself into his arms.
"Whoa, Zoe, what's the rush?" Fred asked her, careful with his words. Zoey said nothing but simply inhaled and kissed Fred full in the mouth. Fred, who was shocked by the sudden action, took several steps back before finally registering what had just happened. When the gears in his head finally began to turn, he smiled into the kiss and his eyes fluttered close, returning it.
As cheezy as is may sound but slowly, Zoey's right leg popped up a bit as any princess would in the muggle fairytales. The pair didn't know how many minutes had passed and frankly they didn't care all that mattered was that it was just the two of them. Them.
"I want to be with you," Zoey said, breaking the kiss, "I don't care about the others anymore. I just want you"
Fred grinned. "Same here," he said to her, "And I'll be with you no matter what"
It was now the last day of school and every student of Hogwarts were told to gather in the Great Hall. Zoey knew the reason behind this; Dumbledore was going to make a speech about Cedric and would most likely tell everyone the truth. Zoey didn't attend. She couldn't handle it. As she watched everyone gather into the hall, she sneakily broke free from the crowd and took refuge at her favorite spot near Hagrid's hut.
Zoey sat in silence and had her own tribute to Cedric in her mind. She would remember the times she would spend with him. Just talking and playing around. She felt a pang in her heart. She would never have those moments again. She took in a shaky breath and opened her eyes to the sky. She heard the chattering of students fill the air. How long has it been since she closed her eyes? Did she lose track of time that fast? She looked over at the castle and saw her friends, and boyfriend, Zoey grinned at the name, approach her. She waved at them.
"There you are! We've been looking all over for you! You're the only one who can wipe the disturbing grin off of Fred's face. I mean, I know you're both together and all, but I've already had enough lovely dovey moments from George and Echo to scar me for a lifetime," Bridgit said, making the others laugh.
"My grin isn't disturbing, is it?" Fred faced Zoey.
Zoey feigned thought and tapped his cheek. "Sadly it is. But, I'm your girlfriend so I learn to look past that," she gave him a smile before looking over at George and Echo, "Never saw you two as the lovey dovey type"
"Yeah, well, that makes both of us," Bridgit suddenly said, making George glare at her.
"Oh, don't' be just a jealous git, Bridgit," he, George, said, making Bridgit laugh.
"Me? Hahaha! Jealous? I don't need to be jealous of any of you!" Bridgit said between fits of laughter. "I have my own little guy to look after!" and as if on cue, Shinji appeared out of her cloaks pocket, barking cutely at him
"So you're in a relationship with a dog?" Fred asked, making Bridgit glare at him
"You do know that this dog hates you and even if he is small, he has sharp teeth," Bridgit stated, making Shinji growl at Fred.
"Good Boy!" Echo started petting Shinji.
"Yup, he always is!" Bridgit answered, petting the little dog as well
Zoey gave a laugh at the sight but before she could say anything there was a girlish clearing of throat. The five looked back and saw Mary Sue standing there with her hand at her hip, glaring at each and every one of them.
"Would you look at that. Aren't you all so precious," Mary Sue sneered, "Too bad it isn't going to last long"
"You're just jealous, Mary Sue," Echo scoffed.
"Jealous? Why would I need to be jealous? After all, I'm not the one who would be locked away from the world after her seventh year in this school," Mary Sue looked at her nails
"What are you on about, Bitchy, I mean, Mary Sue?" Bridgit asked, glaring at the girl.
Mary Sue's glare intensified at the sight of Bridgit. "Oh? Didn't Zoey tell you? I would have thought she would," she said in a vague voice
"Oh my gosh! Did you say thought? So you actually think under that head full of hairspray?" Bridgit retorted.
"Tell us what?" Fred suppressed his laugh and darted his eyes from Mary Sue to Zoey, who had yet to speak.
"You aren't making any of your lies again, are you, Mary Sue?" George asked.
"Oh, but Georgie, dear. This is all the truth," Mary Sue smiled, "You see, ickle Zoey here had made a certain promise to her auntie. A promise that says that after she graduates… she'll have to leave all of you and crawl back into that dumpsite she calls a house forever"
"We'll see to that, Bitch," Echo spat, "think that aunt of hers can keep her away from us?"
"Come on, Mary Sue, do you seriously think we'll let her go? I mean if that really is try then we could break her out you know," Bridgit added, smirking as she saw Mary Sue's glare
Mary Sue opened her mouth to speak but before she could Zoey tackled her to the floor. Zoey angrily pulled at her hair and said vicious words before Fred, who was laughing under his breath together with George, pulled her away. Mary Sue yelled in disgust when she saw grass in her hair and ran away from the five, forgetting what she was even doing in the first place. Zoey snarled at her before looking at her friends sheepishly.
"I really don't like her," Zoey spoke.
"Yeah, well I'm sure Crabbe just loves her," Bridgit suddenly said, laughing to herself.
"Say, what did you do to her at the Yule Ball?" Fred asked out of the blue, "I mean. Full details and all."
"You really want to know?" Bridgit asked, smirking as she did.
"Of course," the twins replied, grinning.
"Well, when Zoey told me she needed me to keep that no good excuse of a girl away from George, I was having a hard time thinking on how. So I decided that if I needed to keep her away I might as well have a little fun," Bridgit started, making the twins want to hear more.
"So I brought her out to the garden and I put a confundus charm on her," she continued, making Fred and George stare at her.
"That's it?" they both asked, earning whacks at the head from her.
"Do you two know me at all? Of course that's not it!" Bridgit answered, while the two rubbed their heads.
"Anyways, so I put the charm on her and I had her spinning around the garden and basically ripping her dress, but I didn't expect a drunk Vincent Crabbe to come along. She practically pounced him and started calling him Georgie-poo"
Bridgit then said, making the other's laugh.
"But the night-maker was that she actually kissed Crabbe smack on the lips!
" She added, making the burst out in fits of laughter. The twins were having trouble standing up.
"So when I heard the song ending, I took the confondus charm off and she opened her eyes and found herself snogging Crabbe! I swear the face she had was priceless!" Bridgit continued, now the twins rolling on the floor.
Zoey rolled her eyes. "Brilliant," she said before looking over at the distance, "I think it's about time for us to go now"
"Finally!" Echo cried out
"I can't say I'm excited to go home… but I'm totally looking forward to next year!" Bridgit said smiling, waving her wand in the air and summoning her luggage. Zoey watched as her friends did the same and followed Bridgit, heading towards the carriages.
Zoey did the same and was just about to take a step forward when Fred grabbed her hand stopping her from following her friends and bent down to kiss her. Zoey returned the kiss and pouted when Fred pulled away to whisper into her hear.
"Was what Mary Sue said true?" he asked, "Are you really going to be taken away?"
Zoey didn't reply for a few seconds. She moved to look at Fred in the eye. "Let's not end the year like this, okay? I'll tell you all about it soon" she made a move to intertwine her fingers with his.
"And when is soon?"
"This summer," Zoey paused, "I promise"
And that concludes their 6th Year~
