Isabelle's POV
Early this morning...everyone is in the Great Hall.
Everyone was quiet...crying silently.

I was about to cry as well. But I held it in.

"Today, we acknowledge...a really terrible loss. Cedric Diggory was, as you all know...exceptionally hard-working...infinitely fair-minded...and, most importantly...a fierce, fierce friend." said Dumbledore.

Everyone had tears in their eyes.

"Now, I think, therefore, you have the right to know exactly how he died. You see...Cedric Diggory was murdered...by Lord Voldemort! The Ministry of Magic does not wish me to tell you this. But not to do so, I think, would be an insult to his memory. Now, the pain...we all feel at this dreadful loss reminds me...and reminds us...that while we may come from the different places and speak in different tongues...our hearts beat as one. In light of recent events...the bonds of friendship we've made this year will be more important then ever. Remember that, and Cedric Diggory will not have died in vain. You will remember that...and we'll celebrate a boy who was...kind and honest...and brave." said Dumbledore.

~Later~
Erika and I walked outside, noticing the Bulgarians and the beauties...whatever you call them. They're leaving Hogwarts.

"Erika."

Erika stopped and turned...meeting Jace Jones.

"Hey." Erika greeted.
He smiled and walked up to her. I just rolled my eyes.

He suddenly gave Erika something.
"Here. This is the location. You can write to me." he said.
Erika slowly took it.


"Write to me, promise?" Jace asked.
Erika sighed.

"I won't make any promises." she said.
Jace smiled and he was about to hug her.

"I don't think so." Erika said.
"What?" he asked.

Erika sighed and gave him back his little paper.
"I can't write to you, so will you excuse me...I need to find my friends." Erika said.

"But---" Erika walked towards me and we both left Jace there.

"Erika...why didn't you accept his little paper thingy?" I asked.
Erika giggled. "Well, something tells me that he's a big PLAYBOY."

~Meeting together~
"Do you think we'll ever just have a quiet year at Hogwarts?" asked Ron.
"No." said Hermione and Harry.
"No, I didn't think so. Oh, well. What's life without a few dragons?" said Ron.
Ron and Harry were about to walk away but noticed Hermione didn't move.
"Everything's going to change now, isn't it?" she said. I went up to her and put my hand on her shoulder.
"Yes. It always will." I said.
Erika agreed with me.

"Everything will." she said.
Hermione nodded.

"Promise you'll write this summer. All four of you." she said.
"I won't. You know I won't." Ron joked.
"Belle? Erika?"she asked.
"Maybe...if you write to us first." we said.
Hermione smiled and giggled.

Then she turned to Harry.

"Harry will, won't you?" she asled.
"Yeah. Every week." He joked.
We all chuckled at Harry.

What a nice answer, Harry. I thought.

~Train Ride~
I walked through the aisle and suddenly bumped into....

"Belle."

It was Mal---I mean, Draco. Aish...I need to get use to it. I think...

"Hey." I greeted.
He suddenly held my wrist.

"You feeling alright?" he asked.
I nodded. "Yeah, I'm alright."

He sighed out of relief.
"Thank goodness." he said.

"Thanks for worrying about me, Draco. I really appreciate it." I said.
I think he was happy when I said his name.

"No worries. I didn't want to make thing awkward between us." he said.
I giggled at him.

"Well, I guess I'll see ya." I said.
He nodded. "Yeah, see ya."

After the train ride, we bid our friends good bye and meet EXO.
They took us back to the clan.

Erika and I rest for a while, until...

"Yah, Hyung! That's my chicken!"

"What now?" Erika asked.
I just shurgged and we decided to check it out.

"That's my chicken and you know it!" Kai Oppa exclaimed.
"Yah, Kai. You had like 7 pieces of chicken." DO said.
"Exactly. Save some for everyone." Suho said.

"It's my chicken. And Chanyeol give it back!" Kai said.

Erika sighed and walked up to the table. Noticing that the chicken is all gone, but the one that Chanyeol has.

"Yah Yah! I'm hungry." Chanyeol said.

Kai Oppa growled.

I sighed and sneaked behind Chanyeol. And took the chicken.
"Yah Belle!"

I ate the chicken and smirked.
"Thanks for the chicken." I said.

Erika giggled and dumplings instead.

"Yah! Belle..." Kai Oppa pouted.

I giggled and gave him a piece.

"There. Happy now, Oppa?" I asked.

He nodded, in a cute way.

We started to have feast with Dad that night. I was outside of the balcony and stared at the stars...it was so beautiful.

"Hope next year will change." I mumbled.
