Storms Ahead

|Chapter Eighty one : Heartbreaks|

"Amelia seems like she'd throw herself in front of a moving vehicle for you" rounding the corner I grinned as I walked behind Nathan and Cedric, only the matter of a few steps behind them

"Amelia would throw herself in front of a moving vehicle for fun"  listening to Cedric say that amused I laughed quietly to myself before squeezing between the two of them, looking between them with a grin

"Damn right I would"

"But I'm not going to let her"

"Try stop me Cedric"

"I'll just keep you in a hug. No getting away then"

"What if I don't want to hug you?"

"Then I shall be forever heartbroken. Is that what you want?"

"... no"

"Exactly"

"Damn Hufflepuff" I murmured, a smile on my face as I glanced at Nathan who was walking with a grin

"I heard that!"

"I know you did-"

"I hear everything"

"That scares and concerns me-"

"No! Don't be scared! I don't want you to be scared!"

"Do you even want me?"

"Of course I do, I can't live without you Lia" he told me quietly as I felt a small smile grow on my face and I was pulled into a hug as I rested my head against his chest

"Awh I love you Cedric"

"I love you too"

"And there's the Hufflepuff in them both"

"Be quiet Nathan"

"I can speak if I want to-"

"Wait. Why are you even here?" I asked as I turned my head to him, feeling a tap on my back as I looked to Cedric who had his eyebrows raised

"Yes?"

"That could sound rude to some people"

"Yes, but, Nathan loves me so it's fine"

"I love you too but you wouldn't speak to me like that"

"Of course I wouldn't. I couldn't bring myself to hurt you, disrespect you or make you upset. I wouldn't even argue with you" I hummed as I stepped back and we kept an arm around each other while we carried on walking, a grin on his face

"But me on the other hand you would happily mock"

"Please Nathan, the level we mock each other at is below mediocre compared to me and Pansy" I scoffed as I poked his side amused and he shook his head at me

"Anyway, to answer your question I have to sort some things out with Nadia-"

"About The Tornados?"

"About the Tornados" he agreed with a sigh before letting a smile grow on his face as I linked his arm with mine and smiled at him

"You'll be fine. I've declared myself as a second in the duel-"

"They're not duelling Amelia"

"You never know actually. It is getting slightly out of hand"

"Yes! I'm going to be a second, I'm going to be a second!"

"I never said that-"

"Fight me-"

"No thank you"

"Exactly" I said to Nathan with a smirk as I walked with a smug look and I felt a tap to the back of my head, scrunching my face up in pain slightly as I looked at Cedric

"I'm still sore, you know?"

"Are you alright?"

"Yeah. There's just a slight stinging feeling on my scalp" I told Cedric as Nathan turned to look at me

"So, what actually happened?"

"Kicked off, caught the quaffle and flew to the hoops and genuinely just threw the ball when I got a bludger straight to the back of the head" I explained to Nathan, briefly going over what had happened in the Gryffindor vs Slytherin match the last weekend

"But! I did get that goal"

"When did you wake up?"

"A couple of hours later?-"

"Lies! You woke up nearly two days later" Cedric corrected me as I grinned at him and we stopped as I glanced about, finding us at the entrance hall as Nathan left a few minutes later after waving us off as I turned to Cedric with a smile before pulling him into a hug

"Did Madame Pomfrey say you were okay to go?"

"Yeah-"

"Liar"

"Yeah...."

"My god Amelia-"

"Oh Shush, you love me"
