Today's the day that you were going to face your dragon. The first task of the Triwizard tournament was going to start in a few minutes and you have never felt so nervous and scared like this. You were in the tent together with the other three champions who were in their own world, trying to ready themselves for what's about to come. You can't help but slowly pace back and forth. Jungkook hadn't even spoken to you after that incident in the corridor in which he heard you said you'd rather fall in love with him. He had been trying to avoid you all this time while Taehyung was oblivious. Your thoughts and your heart were racing when suddenly you heard a pssst outside the back of the tent. You walked closer to hear who it was.

"Y/N? Is that you?" You felt relieved when you heard Taehyung's voice.

"Tae!" You called.

"H-how are you feeling?" He asked, worry laced in his words.

"Nervous. Scared." You answered as you bit your lip.

"Well, good luck!" He said and after a few seconds of silence, he jumped into the tent and hugged you very tight as if you were about to go walk to your death when a camera flashed. Both of you let go of each other and saw Rita Skeeter, together with her magic quill and camera-man.

"Ah young love. How precious." She sighed lovingly. "But aren't you dating Park Jimin?" She raised her eyebrows. "But Kim isn't a bad choice either. You seem to like the ones from great and famous wizarding families I see, not bad. You know a halfling like you —"

"What are you doing here?" Suddenly Dragomir Petrov has intervened. "This tent is for champions and friends."

"No matter. I've got everything I needed." Rita had said and went out of the tent when Dumbledore, together with Mr. Crouch and the other headmasters had entered the tent.

"Gather around now." Dumbledore said and all of us gathered into a circle. Dumbledore explained the rules of the competition about getting a golden egg that the dragon we'll pick will guard.

"Kim? What are you doing here?" Dumbledore asked.

"Sorry, I'll be on my way now." He said and went out of the tent and to the bleachers.

Everybody pulled their miniature versions of the dragons in the bag that Crouch was holding and you knew what the last dragon left was. Your heart was beating loud as you reached for the miniature dragon you'll have to face.

"The Hungarian Horntail." Crouch had said in a grim tone as if you were to march to your death.

The first round has finished and you barely got out of the ring alive. You had cuts and burns here and there but all the more, you felt happy that you were able to conquer your fears and got the Golden Egg. Everyone was celebrating with you in the Gryffindor tower. Shouting that you should open the egg whilst everyone was there so you did. It gave a screeching sound. Everyone covered their ears because it felt like their eardrums will rupture from the sound. You quickly closed it.

"What the bloody hell was that?" All of your eyes turned to Jungkook. Everyone in the Gryffindor tower knew that you two haven't spoken in days but they never knew what the reason was and never bothered to butt in or ask why. You looked at Jungkook with loving eyes, happy that he looked at you again and spoke.

"Alright everyone, go back to your knitting. This is gonna be uncomfortable enough without all you nosy sods listening in." Beomgyu said and everyone dispersed, leaving you and Jungkook alone.

"I reckon you have to be barking mad to put your name in the goblet of fire." Jungkook said.

"The three of us were barking mad at the time." You chuckled.

"Are you hurt? I mean obviously you had a few cuts, scrapes and burns but overall, are you okay?" He asked.

"I'm good actually, especially now that you're finally talking to me." You looked down and bit your lip.

"I'm sorry. It's just that, I wasn't expecting you to say stuff like that you know?" Jungkook scratched the back of his head. "It made me feel stuff that I can't explain."

"It's great that you two are finally speaking to each other. By Merlin's beard I had a hard time picking sides!" Taehyung said and swung his arms over your shoulder and Jungkook's. Suddenly, Taehyung kissed your cheek. "Congratulations on getting that egg, Y/N. You sure looked cooler than Jin out there." Taehyung smiled.

"Of course I do." You boasted.

Jungkook on the other hand, felt something sting inside his chest when he saw Taehyung kiss you on the cheek. He didn't mind it before because he knew you were friends, but now you're all grown and Taehyung has talked to him about his feelings for Y/N. He was definitely supportive of Taehyung, up until now. He wanted to compete for your heart but he wanted to do it discretely without Taehyung noticing that he wanted Y/N's attention. He wanted to know if you'd prefer him over Taehyung without even giving Y/N signals that he likes her. Just wait until she finally decides what her feelings are and who she has them for although, Jungkook was secretly hoping it'd be him especially now that he heard Y/N say that she'd rather fall in love with him than anyone.

"We're definitely celebrating tomorrow! I've got a surprise you'll surely like." Taehyung giddily said.

"Well, I'm looking forward to it." You smiled at him. "I'll see you boys tomorrow. I'm exhausted from all that dragon fighting."

"Good night dragon warrior!" Jungkook said.

"Oh shut up." You laughed at his remark. "Good night to the both of you."
