The stars (Harry Potter fanfiction)

Chapter Thirty-Two

It's finally the last challenge in the tournament, me and Harry haven't brought up the kiss session ever since it happened. And we both didn't tell anyone it's just been a secret between us.

Currently, I'm on the stands next to mum, she decided to come watch and cheer Harry on. All the champions are behind the arena getting ready. I wanted to talk to Harry and Cedric before they went out.

I turn to mum and ask her. "Can I go see Harry and Cedric?" Mum only turns around and nods her head. I quickly get up and run towards the entrance, I slip through the door and look for either Cedric or Harry. But I see neither, I'm walking around looking for them before I feel someone jump on my back.

"BOO!" I hear, my legs buckle on me causing me to fall to the ground. I know the voice from anywhere it's Cedric. "Ow, Cedric you big git. Get off of me." He laughs and gets off of me, holding his hand out for me to grab. I grab it and he pulls me up.

"Why are you here?"

"Because I wanted to wish good luck."

"Well, I don't need luck because I am winning."

I laugh at what Cedric said, almost in tears from laughing so hard. "Oh, good one Cedric!" I say wiping imaginary tears from my eyes, he playfully punches me in the arm.

"Athena before they call me out there, I want to tell you something."

"Okay yeah, what is it?" I ask while looking at my watch.

"Well... I felt bad about quidditch in the second year. I know you liked playing, and I basically got you kicked off the team. So I want to make it up to you by making you the new... Quidditch Captain!"

"Cedric! That is amazing!"

I yell jumping onto Cedric and hugging him. "But since you were banned until sixth year, that's when you will start. You will be Quidditch Captain in sixth year!"

"That awesome, In all but I don't even know how to play like that. I'm rusty and not to mention I am terrified of heights."

"Well, you have two years to practice and get over that fright of heights Athena. I believe in you."

"Mr. Diggory it's your time to come out." A voice calls for Cedric he looks at me, and waves bye before he starts walking out. I wave back wishing him the best of luck in my head.

Now it's time to find Harry.

I'm walking around some more, before I see a red and black shirt that says, 'POTTER' on it. I walk to the person. He's pacing around, obviously trying to calm his nerves down.

"Hey, Harry," I say making him jump, he turns around and gives me the most bone-crushing hug ever. I feel my shirt start to get wet, when I look I see that Harry is crying into it. 

"I'm so scared."

Harry tells me his voice cracking as he cries, I quickly hug him back and play with his hair as he cries into my shirt. "You'll be fine, you are Harry Potter."

"That doesn't mean anything, I'm only a boy Athena. I wasn't meant to be here."

"But... You've made it this far. This tournament should be scared of you."

Harry laughs into my shoulder while holding me tighter. "Thanks Athena, I appreciate your help."

"Harry, guess what Cedric just told me."

"What'd he say?"

"I get to be Quidditch Captain, in sixth year! Me, I get to!" I tell Harry as I grab his hands, making him jump up and down with me. "Imagine me in the Quidditch sweater!"
