"Come on! We're going to be late! Quickly!" yelled Blaise

Today was Thursday which is the day where the students are putting their name in the Goblet of Fire. Vela and her friends were running towards the Great Hall. They wanted to watch and find out who among the students are wishing to join the tournament.

"I can't believe they're joining the tournament just for Eternal Glory. It's completely demented if you ask me" said Blaise

"Let them be Blaise. They probably want the attention." said Pansy

"or the money" Draco scoffed

"Hello friends!" The group of Slytherins looked up and saw Nikolai standing in front of them

"Hey Nikolai!" They said in unison except for Vela who was currently holding a blank expression

The Slytherins and Nikolai got along very well, Draco included. The others told Vela to befriend him since he's not even that bad but she didn't think it was necessary. They can be friends with him but she's fine with her current friend group. She doesn't need anyone else, she said one day at the common room.

"Ah, sweet Vela still hates me." Nikolai placed his hand on his chest and faked cried making the others laugh

"I don't hate you Nikolai. I just don't see the point of befriending you." Vela said to him

"It's not hurt to try? Hey, maybe we'll even become besties" Nikolai winked at her

She rolled her eyes but smirked anyway which made his face brighten

"Come on Cedric! Put it in! Wooo!" They heard the Hufflepuffs cheer for the Hufflepuff Golden Boy, Cedric Diggory.

They watched Cedric put his name in the Goblet of Fire and the students cheering for him. When he walked away, Vela saw him looking at Nikolai and smiled at his way making Nikolai...blush?

Vela raised her eyebrow at Nikolai when he looked at her and he quickly looked away trying to cover up his reddened cheeks.
She chuckled but stopped teasing him.

"Aha!! Yeahhh!" They saw the Weasley twins running inside holding a bottle of potion.
Students were cheering for them and they high-fived everyone

"Well lads! We've done it! Cooked it up just this morning!" said the other Weasley

"It's not going to work!" said Hermione Granger

"Oh yeah? And why is that Granger?" George Weasley asked

"You see this? This is an age line. Dumbledore drew it himself" said Hermione pointing at the white circle surrounding the Goblet

"So?" they asked

She scoffed and placed her book on her lap

"So! A genius like Dumbledore couldn't possibly be fooled by a dodge as pathetically dim witted as an Aging Potion!" said Hermione

"Ah! But that's why it's so brilliant!"

"Because it's pathetically dim witted!"

The Weasley twins stood up on a bench and shook the potion.

"Ready Fred?

"Ready George?"

"Bottoms up!"

They linked their arms together and drank the potion. Then, they jumped across the age line and when nothing happened they raised their arms up and everyone cheered, making Granger roll her eyes and continue reading her book.
