His Goddaughter,His Darling

Emphasis on the 'Z'

        I was sitting onto my seat when I heard the canon ball explode.I grabbed Malfoy's shoulder by accident."Somebody's scared."I rolled my eyes and sat next to him."What did Krum want?"I rolled my eyes."He wanted me to 'wish him good luck' before he got out there."Draco turned to his other side and didn't talk to me.Is he-He is.He totally is.He's jealous.While Cedric was in the arena battling with his dragon I leaned to Draco."It's not like I love him Draco."He still didn't look at me so I just continued watching.As the three main champions got their eggs it was now Harry's turn.The moments that made me anxious was gone.Fleur was fine.Cedric was fine.Krum was fine.The scary part was over.I didn't seem like I cared but I did.I wanted Harry to be harmed.Hell yeah I did.But I wanted the other three to be as safe as they could be.Draco was enjoying Harry saving his ass from his near death.

      What none of us expected was that Hungarian Horntail could break the chain and follow Harry.Now Harry could die.If he dies we can't take his blood unwillingly.He would be dead.I turned to the torn teachers launge.I saw Rita with a crooked glasses and an annoyed Snape covered in dust.Dumbledore was worried but then again one thing that any teacher in this school has in common is to save or protect Harry.Some more than others:Dumbledore,Snape...Harry and the dragon went over to the Hogwarts castle.W ewere all standing on our feet to see what was going on but because of the fog we barely saw the castle.I tugged onto Draco's hand."I heard that people died in the tournament but it's the first task.There is two more.""I bet he'll withdrawl.But it's against the rules.If the rules were broken Harry wouldn't be in the stiuation in the first place.The name that Goblet choose is bound to play."

       Then the screamings of Harry and the gruntings of the dragon stopped.The arena and the region it stood on went dead silent until we saw Harry coming back.Grager screamed 'yes' on top of her lungs like no tomorrow.And Harry got his egg.Days were going by and everybody now fancied Harry.But he had eyes for Cho Chang.I didn't like the little Ravenclaw princess but it gave me ideas.I even saw Harry spill the water in his mouth on himself today.I saw the dress robe that Mrs.Weasley sent to Ron."Look at this Lopez."Crabbe tapped on my shoulder and I turned to see Ron holding a rather gnarly dress robe.It was hilarious.All of us were laughing.Then the little Gryffindor student Nigel came.He is an angel if you ask me."Ula?"He tapped on my shoulder."Cedric wanted me to give you this.""You're letting Ron use you and now Cedric too?Come on Nigel you're better than that."I got the note and stood up.The note said that Cedric wanted to meet me under the tree."Thank you Nigel."I leaned down to the boy who was shorter than me and kissed his cheek.He left running."I'll be back before class starts."I winked at Crabbe and after 'the Krum incedent' Draco wasn't in a really good mood.Now Cedric wanting to talk to me didn't make it any better.

        "Nigel told me you wanted to meet?"He nodded."Yeah.When I was putting my name into the Goblet I saw you watching me and I think I saw something beyond the terrifying girl that everyone seems to see.So I was wondering if you would like to be my date to the Yule Ball.It's a tridition of the Triwizard Tournament and I thought I would ask."Oh shit!This is golden!"Cedric you're sweet and I am really proud of you for battling witht hat dragon the way you did but do you mind if I think about it?"He shook his head."No.Of course not.Just don't keep me waiting for too long."I smiled and he smiled back.He leaned and kissed my cheek before he left running.He's cute.But I already have someone.After Cedric was out of sight I subtly wiped my cheek witht he sleeve of my robe.

      We were in class with Snape and all the Slytherins were there."Since the Yule Ball is a tradition that was incepted since the first Triwizard Tournament we must hold the Yule Ball.Today per Professor Dumbledore's request I will teach you how to dance in a ball.The ball will be taking place on Christmas eve night in the Great Hall.All three schools will be joining to this 'well-mannered frivolity' as Professor McGonagall put it you must know what to do.And yes the dancing is mandatory.Girls to that side and boys to the other."We parted as he said.I wanted to laugh at him but the room was too silent there was no way he couldn't have heard me if I did.I didn't want to risk it."Which one of you would like to volunteer to show the rest of the house how to dance?Ms.Lopez?"I wasn't really listening so when Daphne tapped on my shoulder aggressively I turned to her."What?""Snape wants you to volunteer."I turned to him.He knew exactly what he was doing that little fu-"Ms.Lopez I will not repeat myself again."I sighed and came forward.

      As Ula stood next to Snape I realized how much they look alike.The black hair and the black eyes...The way they both swoosh their cape or robe.The way she doesn't fear him and the way he doesn't like her.There is something between Snape and Ula.I hope it's not cheating on me with the head of our house because that's more disgusting than heartbreaking.I can't even think about Ula and Snape togather.Ugh!Disgusting."Ms.Parkinson."Pansy started the music and they started dancing.They were whispering but the music was loud for any of us to actually hear what was going on.

       "What are you doing?""This Christmas break...your mother said you won't be staying with me.You didn't spend the summer with me either."I scoffed."I wonder why."He rolled his eyes."Just because I don't celebrate like your mother doesn't mean I am a bad person."I rolled my eyes."It's not about celebrating.You got it all wrong.On so many levels might I add."He scoffed as he turned me around and I came back to him for the sake of the dance."You are quiet good at this."I grinned."Because this isn't the first time I danced this way.I knwo my steps unlike you since you stepped on my foot for three times."He looked down and saw the dust on my shoe."And I thought you were going to teach us how to dance."After Snape and I were done he let go of me."Now partner up and leave me alone."I rolled my eyes."I'd rather leave."Snape turned around and looked at me with raised eye brows."I don't remember dismissing you Ms.Lopez."Emphasis on the 'Z'.I scoffed and continued walking away.
