I woke up the next morning feeling refreshed, and relaxed. Almost everything was perfect. There was only one thing I was dreading. Explaining everything to Harry.

"Morning, y/n!" Jenn exclaimed, happily.

"Morning!" I replied. I walked down to the common room to see Cedric and Steven talking. It seemed as though they made up. Hopefully, Harry would understand. I walked to the couch where the boys were sitting and sat beside Cedric. He grinned, leaned in, and kissed me . A smile formed on my lips and I let go.

"Well, good morning to you too." I laughed. "Come on, we have to get to breakfast." I pulled Cedric up, and left the common room. Steven and Jenn followed.

"So, do you plan on talking to Harry today?" Cedric asked, having a bite of bacon.

"Yes, I do. I think I'll talk to him during study hall. I saw you talked to Steve, have you talked to Georgina?" I questioned.

"Not exactly. She's a little hard to approach. I tried to talk to her this morning, but she just ran off crying." Cedric tried to hold his laughter. "I think I'll just leave it. She'll get over it, right?"

"I wouldn't worry about it." I chuckled. "I was thinking we could go research on dragons tomorrow, maybe after school."

"Sounds good. I still have no idea how to fight them. I wonder if Harry figured out what to do. But, it's probably best if I keep a distance from him for a bit." Cedric lowered his brows, and stared at me.

"Well, hopefully I can fix this before the first task." I replied.

"Gillyweed." Neville said. "I know a bunch about it already, and I think it would be fun."

"Gillyweed? What's Gillyweed?" I asked.

"Well, it's a sort of weed in the water, that when a person eats it, they're able to breathe underwater. Very useful, but it only lasts about an hour, which is the danger. If the user doesn't know, they might drown." Neville explained.

"Hm. Okay. Let's do it then." I replied.

"Have you two come up with a plant yet?" Professor Sprout asked, walking up to Neville and I.

"Yes, ma'am." Neville replied, nervously.

"How about you and Mr. Diggory?" Sprout asked George.

"Yep! Devil's Snare. Ron told Fred and I all about it when he-"

"Thank you, Mr. Weasley. Everyone else has a plant chosen?" asked Sprout. The class nodded in unison.

"Today we will me learning about two different potions. Take out your parchment, we will be doing a series of notes this class." Professor Snape mumbled. The students sighed, and did what they were asked. "First potion, titled Felix Felicis. Or more commonly known as 'Liquid Luck'. Does anyone know why it was given this nickname?"

"Because the person who drinks it is granted luck for twelve hours, meaning that everything the user attempts, will be successful." A student blurted.

"Correct. This potion is clearly powerful and dangerous if it gets into the wrong hands."

What do I say to him? How can I say this to him? I thought, pacing around the library. Suddenly, Harry walked into the library with Hermione. Here goes nothing.

"Um, excuse me, Harry?" I asked, walking towards the duo.

"I'll see you in a bit, Hermione." Harry said. He followed me to the back of the library, saying nothing.
