Don't Leave Me

Chapter 12

~fourth year~

Harry POV
Summer this year was great. Dad and papa took me to the Black Manor to live there with them. Finally a summer without getting hurt. The train arrived, and I headed in. I saw Draco in an empty compartment and walked to him. "Hi." He looked up from his book. "Hey Scarhead, how was summer?" "It was great. It's so much better to live with my dad and papa in the Black Manor." "Mine was also good. Anyways, are you excited for the Triwizard Tournament?" I nodded.

Draco POV
Harry and I were sitting at the feast, after Dumbledore's speech, when Dumbledore stood up and got everyone's attention. He started talking:"Dear Hogwarts students, this year the Triwizard Tournament will be held at Hogwarts. Everyone who wants a chance to take part in the tournament can put their name in the Goblet of Fire-" A big goblet appeared in the middle of the hall. "-but there will be an age limit. Only students of age 17 or older can take part. This is for safety. You will have 24 hours to put your name in. Tomorrow at dinner, we will announce the champions." A slightly lightening circle appeared around the goblet. After that, everyone just continued their feast.

Harry and I have been sitting in the Great Hall for the whole day, watching  as people putted their name in the goblet. "I'll be right back, I have to use the bathroom."I said. Harry nodded. When I returned, he was still sitting on the same place. "Did I miss something?" I sat down beside him. "Viktor Krum from Durmstrang and Fleur Delacour from Beauxbatons putted their names in." We watched Cedric Diggory, a Hufflepuff, putting his name in.

We were eating dinner, when the blue flames of the goblet turned red. Dumbledore stood up. "The Goblet of Fire is ready to announce the Triward Champions." The flames spat a paper out. "The first Champion is... Viktor Krum for Durmstrang!" The Durmstrang students cheered and the other schools applauded. Another paper spat out the flames. "The second Champion is... Fleur Delacour for Beauxbatons!" Fleur stood up and walked out the door to the antechamber they had to wait. The last paper spat out. "The last champion is... Cedric Diggory for Hogwarts!" Cedric stood up and followed Fleur. Then, the goblet, which had turned back to blue, turned red. Everyone watched with shock as there spat a new paper out. After the paper landed in Dumbledore's hand, who was as shocked as everyone, the goblet turned blue and disappeared. Everyone watched Dumbledore opening the paper. He waited a few moments, before looking up and saying:"Harry Potter." My jaw dropped, and my heart did the same as I realized he could die in this. I looked at Harry, who stood up and walked after the other Champions. The other students started to protest. "This isn't fair! He isn't even 17! He's a fourth year, Merlin's sake!" I stood up and ran to the Astronomy Tower. I knew Harry would go there when he was dismissed. I arrived, and started thinking. Why would he put his name in? When did he put his name in? We were together the whole time. My eyes widened with realization. When I was at the bathroom.

A/N
Hey guys, sorry I didn't update for a few days, but I kinda lost my motivation, so I might take longer for updating. I started this book in the Holidays, and school has started again since a few weeks. I've got homework and some tests I need to study for, so that's why. Anyways, I noticed I'm rushing the story a bit and I'll try to stop rushing. Hope y'all enjoy reading!
