Liliah Rogers

39

Liliah rubbed her eyes under her glasses as she sat at an unbearable prefects meeting on the Hogwarts express. Ben Shallows of Ravenclaw and Amelia Kurts of Slytherin droned on and on about the " safety of the students" and blah blah blah. Cedric put his head on Liliah's shoulder and yawned.

" Alright, I think we can call this meeting finished. Anything to add Ben?" Amelia asked.
" Nope I think we covered everything." Ben smiled.
Amelia smiled at him and they stared at each other for a moment.
" Okay, everyone can leave now." Amelia clapped her hands.
Cedric and Liliah were the first ones up and out the compartment.
" How long till those two shag?" Cedric asked.
" I give it about a month. Maybe two." Liliah smirked.

The two laughed as the swung open the door to their compartment. They both collapsed on either of the two seats.
" I'm so tired. Who can talk for forty minutes straight this early?" Liliah asked curling up into a ball on the seat.
" Those two I guess. When we become head boy and girl I say our prefects meeting should be ten minutes top." Cedric placed his arms behind his head.
" Absolutely and five of the ten should just be us talking about ourselves." Liliah said.
" Well of course." Cedric rolled his eyes.

Liliah closed her eyes and let herself snuggle into the cushions. Then the door swung open.
" Oh my god. What do you want." Liliah groaned sitting up.
She spoke before she even knew who it was.
" Nice to see you too Rogers." Cho said.
Cedric shot up.
" Hi Cho." Cedric smiled.
" Hi Cedric. I got you a pumpkin pastry." Cho sat next to him.
Cedric glanced at Liliah and she gave him an amused look. Cedric looked back at Cho.

" Thank you. That was very kind." Cedric told her taking the pumpkin pastry.
" Sorry I didn't get you anything Liliah. I just kinda forgot about you." Cho shrugged.
" Oh don't worry about it. Let's watch Cedric enjoy his pumpkin pastry." Liliah directed the attention back to Cedric.
Cedric unwrapped the plastic from the cake looking sweet. He looked up at Cho and smiled, then he took a bite out of the pastry. His face twisted in disgust he looked back up at Cho.
" Mmmmm." Cedric rubbed his stomach.

Cho smiled brightly and Liliah almost died from keeping in her laughter.
" Ya know I'm going to leave you love birds alone bye!" Liliah told them quickly leaving the compartment.
As soon as the door shut she let a loud laugh. She shook her head and walked down the narrow hallway. She found the compartment with her brother and his friends. She slid open the door and walked in. She shut the door behind her and sat next to her brother.

" Hey nerds whats happening?" Liliah asked.
" Oh you just missed Harry's girlfriend." Hermione teased.
" Hermione." Harry said through gritted teeth.
" Girlfriend? You never told me you have a girlfriend." Liliah turned to her little brother.
" She's not my girlfriend." Harry looked at her.
" No, just the girl he fancies." Ron snickered.
" Awe Harry, you have a crush." Liliah pulled him to her and pinched his cheeks.
" Stop I don't. I just think she's very pretty that's all." Harry pushed his sister off.
" It's okay to like girls Harry." Liliah told him.

" Just girls?" Harry asked in a hushed tone.
Liliah was a little taken back but didn't hesitate to answer.
" No. Not just girls. Who ever you want. As long as they make you happy and are good to you. It doesn't matter." Liliah gave him a kind smile.
Harry just nodded and lent back into her. Liliah wrapped her arms around him and massage his head with one of her hands. Liliah let her mind wonder. Was Harry gay? Bi? Pan? Not that it mattered to her, she just hoped when he was ready she would be one of the first people on his list to share the news with. Liliah kissed the top of his head through his long messy hair.

" Welcome back to another year. To all our first years welcome. Before we start the feast I have a few announcements. The first is this Hogwarts will hosting the Tri-Wizard Tournament." Dumbledore announced.
" Your joking!" Fred yelled.
" I'm not joking Mister Weasley." Dumbledore said.
Everyone snickered except Liliah who gave Fred an unamused look and shook her head.
" Two schools will join us. Durmstrang Institute for Magic Academy and Beauxbatons Academy of Magic. Both will be joining us in October. Now the Tri-Wizard Tournament had been around for centuries however due to its death tolls it's been banned. However we have decided to bring it back with new rules." Dumbledore explained.

" No student under seventeen will be permitted to enter. One champion from each will be chosen to compete for their school. A word of caution. This contest isn't for the faint hearted you will tested in every element possible. But more of that later." Dumbledore said.
Suddenly the ceiling began to thunder and lightning. A man with a weird eye and a wooden leg pointed his wand at it and stoped it. He limped to the front and shook Dumbledore hand.
" Lastly are new Defensive Against the Darks Arts teacher this year is Ex Auror Alastor Moody." Dumbledore clapped.
Everyone clapped along. Dumbledore raised his hands and food appeared on the tables.

Everyone smiled and began digging in.
" He looks familiar." Harry jerked his head to Moody.
" He used to work with Pops. I remember seeing photos of him with Pops and Sirius during their Auror training." Liliah put a fork full of peas in her mouth.
" So it's true then? His completely mad?" Ron asked.
" What Sirius and Pops says. Still the best boss they ever had though." Liliah shrugged.
" I can't believe you have to be seventeen to enter. We'll be seventeen in April it's ridiculous." Fred spoke up.

" It's ridiculous you want to enter. Did you hear Dumbledore. They banned it because of the death toll. And I don't want you to die." Liliah rolled her eyes.
" Awe sunflower. You don't have to worry about me." Fred smiled.
" I didn't say that. I just think your family would miss you." Liliah retorted.
" You would miss me too. Wouldn't you? No need to be shy." Fred leaned in closer to her.
" I'm not shy." Liliah shook her head.
" Oh I know. Hopefully in more then one way." Fred flirted in a low voice.

" Go take a cold shower Weasley." Liliah pushed his face away.
" I think I'm going to enter." Angelina Johnson spoke up.
" That's great Angie." Liliah smiled at her.
Angelina smiled back. Liliah, her, Alicia and Katie had been dorm mates forever so they had a good friendship.
" And she you support. Not your future husband." Fred grumbled.
" Seriously cold shower. It might numb your brain if you stay in there long enough." Liliah looked back at him.
" I love when you talk showering to me." Fred bit his lip teasingly.

" I'm about to start talking Brooklyn to you and your not going to like what I have to say." Liliah gave him a nose scrunch.
" Stop being so mean to me! I'm going to fall in love with you!" Fred told her.
" Like your already not." Liliah rolled her eyes.
" Touché." Fred wrapped his arm around her.

She didn't push him off just took another bite of her mash potatoes and gave him a side glare.
