*Belle's POV* *guys she is 15, I know that sounds bad but like- it is for the sake of the story line*

'wow'

-

Me and Cedric walked out of my room when it was time for breakfast and both of us were simply beaming. Cedric had his arm wrapped around my waist and I had my head slightly resting on his shoulder as we walked down to the great hall. When we walked in everyone's heads immediately snapped towards our direction.

"uh.. hi?" I responded sheepishly

Everyone began interrupting into cheers and claps as me and Cedric made our way over to the hufflepuff table. We looked up and saw a big sign at the head of the hall that read 'WELCOME BACK MISS QUEEN oh and you too Cedric'

I laughed so hard I began to double over and Cedric just stood there, mouth gaping at the sign. I looked over to the gryffindor table where Harry, Nicolette, Ron, and Hermione were sitting.

"thank you" I mouthed to all of them

"you're welcome" they all mouthed back

I turned back to Cedric and began tugging on his arm.

"fluffy boy" I drug out the 'y', "I'm hungry." I whined, looking at him with enormous puppy eyes 

Cedric looked away from the banner finally and back down towards me, "Okay queenie we can go get food now" he sighed before walking over to sit next to the dude who brought him to me last night

"What's up mate?" Cedric asked sitting down on the bench

"oh nothing much you know, just glad my friend finally took a shower." the boy laughed, looking directly at Cedric

Cedric turned a bright red before turning to his friend.

"Arthur..." he whined and the boy, presumably Arthur, put his hands up in mock surrender

"okay, okay, then why don't you tell your girlfriend what you have been doing for the past bloody week?" Arthur said, nodding towards me

"I'd rather not..." Cedric let out, barely above a whisper, scratching his neck nervously

"Suit yourself" the boy sighed before biting into a croissant 

"I'm sorry," I let out after a moment of silence, both boys turned towards me, "but is that a French accent I hear?" I asked Arthur, his face lighting up a bit

"It is in deed mademoiselle" he laughed lightly

"de quelle partie de la France êtes-vous? (what part of France are you from?)" I asked him, Cedric looking quite confused

"Bordeaux, qu'en est-il de vous? (Bordeaux, what about you?)"

"Je ne sais pas vraiment, je crois que ma mère m'a donné naissance à Paris, mais après sa mort, je suis allé vivre avec ma tante et mon oncle à Nantes. (I don't really know, I believe my mother gave birth to me in Paris, but after her death I went to live with my aunt and uncle in Nantes)"

"are you guys just going to leave me out of this conversation or actually speak in a language I can understand?" Cedric chimed in, lost by all our banter in french

"mais c'est tellement amusant de voir ce regard confus sur votre visage! tu ressembles à un chiot perdu! (but it is so fun to see that confused look on your face! you look like a lost puppy!)" I laughed out, a big smile on my face

Cedric sighed out in exasperation at my antics.

"Mate, all she said was 'but it is so fun to see that confused look on your face!'" he mocked me as he flipped his hair over his shoulder, "'you look like a lost puppy!'" he finished, pursing his lips and holding his hands obnoxiously

Cedric look over at me in mock hurt, "I do not look like a lost puppy!" he gasped, holding his hand over his 'heart'

I sighed and rolled my eyes playfully before moving his hand to where his actual heart is. Then, I turned to look at Arthur.

"One, I do not sound like that," I said, sending a mild glare at the boy before turning to my boyfriend, "and two, I thought it was cute." I booped his nose before sprinting away knowing he'd be after me

I turned to look behind me and sure enough I was right. I quickly used my powers to close the doors to the great hall, buying me a bit of time. I looked around the hall I was standing in, debating the best course of action. I looked to my left and saw the area was pretty much deserted. I began sprinting towards a door at the end of the hallway when I heard the door to the great hall open up.

"BELLIE I WILL GET YOU!" I heard Cedric's voice playfully yell

I laughed as I continued to get closer to the pair of doors until I was right in front of them.

'these doors seem familiar...' I thought as I slipped through them, only to be met with a gust of fire

"Royale?" I coughed, smoke filling up my lungs

"Belle?" she responded, revealing herself to me

"Oh Royale it has been so long! what are you doing here!" I asked, still wafting away the smoke in the room

"A boy, Charlie Weasel I think his name was, said he saw the connection between us and figured out that you and I had the sacred connection. He let me stay knowing now that I have found you, I cannot survive without you." she cooed, moving closer to me

I put my hand out in front of me and she snuggled the top of her head into it.

"well if I were to have the connection with anyone, I'm glad it's you Royale"

She only purred in response. I sat down next to her, stroking her beautiful scales before the door creaked open.

"aha! there you- woah" Cedric said, looking bug eyed and the dragon in front of him

"it's okay Cedric, she's nice" I cooed, looking over at Royale, she on the other hand looked at him like he was a piece of meat

"Royale don't, he's my boyfriend." I scolded her, she looked at me and rolled her eyes

"SHE HAS A NAME?" Cedric called out, fear making his voice shake

"yes," I replied simply

"well who's is she?" he inquired, calming down a bit

"mine." I replied before laying down on the floor next to Royale, her placing her wing over me protectively

"h-how"

"she was destined to be mine, we have the 'sacred connection', bonding us for life" I sighed before scooting over and inviting Cedric to come lay down on the ground next to me

The boy slowly made his way over, Royale giving him a look before I shooed her off.

"wow" he sighed, putting his arm around me

"wow indeed"
