Harry walked through the halls, almost everyone was wearing a 'potter stinks' badge.

"You cheat, Potter."

"You stink, Potter."

Two kids in Slytherin said as Harry accidentally bumped into them while walking through the halls that surrounded the courtyard. People laughed at him, shoving the 'potter stinks' badge in his face.

"Cedric rules." Some kid said, running past Harry.

"Thanks," Harry sarcastically replied.

He was about to walk into the courtyard when a group of Hufflepuff blocked his way.

"Like the badge?" One of them asked

"Excuse me," Harry said, looking down.

They only laughed at him, he pushed past them. His bag was slung on his shoulder, he walked towards Cedric and his friends, taking (Y/N)'s advice and telling Cedric about the first task.

Cedric was laying on Josh's lap while his friends laughed and talked to him. When one of his friends said Harry was approaching, Cedric sat up. Josh gave Harry a small smile as if to say 'I'm sorry, Cedric's friends can be pricks sometimes'.

"Hey! Read the badge, Potter!" Cedric's friends taunted

"Can I have a word?" Harry asked Cedric

"All right," Cedric said, standing up to follow Harry.

"Dragons. That's the first task. They've got one for each of us," Harry told him as soon as they were away from his friends.

"Are you serious?" Cedric questioned

Harry nodded

"And Fleur and Krum, do they-?"

"Yes." Harry replied

"Right." Harry was about to leave, "hey, listen. About the badges. I've asked them not to wear them, but-" he said, pulling Harry back.

"Don't worry about it." Harry walked off

"It's not like I try to blow things up, exactly. It just happens a fair bit. You have to admit, though, fire's pretty fascinating." Seamus said

"You always blow things up when you're near Dean, maybe it has something to do with that." (Y/N) smirked, nudging Seamus' shoulder when he blushed.

"You're a right foul git, you know that?" Harry stated, when him and Ron were in front of each other.

"You think so?"

"I know so."

"Anything else?" Ron asked

"Yeah. Stay away from me." Harry added

"Fine." Ron spat

He purposely bumped Harry's shoulder as he walked past. Seamus gave Harry a dirty glance before following behind Ron. (Y/N) gave him a reassuring before walking over to where Blaise, Dean and Theodore Nott sat. The four of them became good friends quite fast, and started hanging out a lot.

Harry sighed turning back around, not know what to do or where to go.

"There's Potter. Chest." Crabbe chuckled

"Why so tense, Potter?" Draco asked, he was sat on a tree, trying to show off how cool he was.

When Harry didn't reply, he continued talking.

"My father and I have a bet, you see. I don't think you're gonna last 10 minutes in this tournament." He taunted, jumping down from the tree.

Harry stopped walking to face the blonde boy. Draco and his goons started walking towards him.
