The Riddle: The Philosopher Stone ( Shifting Script/ Harry Potter Fan-fiction )

Chapter 8:

I saw Sage and Cedric. Sage had an empty seat next to her in the middle. Me and Sage took advanced Charms since we were good at charms outside of school. That's why Cedric was there as well. He was an assistant to help those who were going to have trouble with the class as this is advanced Charms. I sat next to Sage and we did our quick handshake. I also saw that there was an empty cup on my desk. She tells me

Sage: " I was waiting for you to enter, I mean, today was so boring without you, and in the second period of flying lessons, Harry got into a fight with Malfoy."

I was in shock. Today was not a good day to be in trouble. Then I saw him. I saw Draco... Malfoy came to sit next to me. He sat down beside me and looked at Sage with a heated looking face and then his eyes met mine. His blueish gray eyes, those mesmerizing eyes getting in contact with my hazel ones with his soft skin an- STOP IT HAZEL. GET YOURSELF TOGETHER! He looked me up and down and smirked. I looked away as I was blushing from his sudden act. I looked to see Cedric glaring at Draco. I looked to Draco and saw him staring at Cedric with his face looking disgusted. Professor Flitwick introduced himself and introduced Cedric. When Cedric was talking about precautions we needed to take, I couldn't help but smile and put my head in my hands to awe over him. He looked so dreamy, and his hair was a perfect shade of ginger brown. He has the most amazing freckles. Suddenly I felt a force push my arm. I pushed my arm away and looked confused. It came from my right, which is where Draco was sitting. He looked at me and said

Draco: " Sorry Riddle, I was stretching, didn't mean to knock your arm."

He said with an evil smile. I rolled my eyes as I saw Cedric coming back to sit next to Sage with his legs on the table. Sage was writing notes to me about everything that happened during her second period. I was worried to read that Harry was called by Professor McGonagall when he catched Neville's remembrall. I didn't want him to be expelled already. When I saw that Draco was the cause for this, I looked at him, fully turning my head. He noticed from his side eye and turned his head looking confused. I pressed my lips into a thin line and shook my head in a 'no' way, side to side. I turned my face back to Professor Flitwick and relaxed my face, as Draco was still looking at me confused. I heard Professor Flitwick then say,

Professor Flitwick: " Alright students, we are going to be practicing filling a cup with water just from your wands using the spell, ' Aguamenti' now swish and flick your wands when saying this spell, like saying 'wingardium leviosa'. Like I showed you before. Cedric and I will be assisting the ones who need help. Get going then!"

Everyone got out their wands, including me, and started trying to fill the cup with water. Draco got it on his second try while I could not do it on my twentieth try. I looked at Sage and dropped my arm and groaned as I was so tired of this not working. Suddenly, Sage got it on her eighteenth try and was jumping up and down her chair from being able to do it. I glared at her in annoyance and shook my body to signal myself to stand up straight and have confidence. Cedric comes up by my left side and says,

Cedric: " Do you want some help?"

I look at him and shake my head giggling a little saying,

Me: " Yes thank you. Ced, how do you do this easily?"

I giggle, making him giggle. I see Sage lifting her eyebrows up and down and switch her eyes from me to Cedric with a nod. I roll my eyes with a smile on my face when I feel a warm figure touch my hand that was on my wand. I turn to see that Cedric's hand was on mine and I smile a little as he moves it in front of the cup. I see Draco's reaction to him doing this. His face was burning red and he looked furious. I didn't know whether or not it was because of him or Sage giving him a death glare. I looked away and accidentally landed on Cedrics face. He was looking at our hands and telling me what to do and how to do it. I blocked out all the noise and just looked at him like time stopped. I was mesmerized with his jawline and his cheekbones, how his nose was perfectly slanted and how his eyelashes fluttered when he blinked. I wasn't even paying attention to the lesson, nor my hand. I could feel it go numb and all that was holding my hand from falling onto the table was Cedric's hand on mine. My feelings for him were growing stronger when he did this. It's only been two days, how can this be? I could feel the wand vibrating a little and water started pouring out. I took a quick glance and said.
