Charlotte-

"Charlotte, Harry!" Peter's voice called from the fire. We got his letter this afternoon asking us to meet him in the Gryffindor common room. We waited all night, and finally his head poked out of the fireplace. 

"Peter! Oh my god! How have you been? Are you alright? Have you been eating?" I asked, we kneeled on our hands and knees in front of the fire, Peter nodded eagerly. 

"I'm fine Charlotte, I'm with your parents at the moment, that's where I'm calling from, but enough about me, Harry, are you alright?"

"I'm- " Harry paused, before every thought and anxiety fell off his tongue once he saw our uncle. 

"... and now Hagrid's just shown me what's coming in the first task, and it's dragons, Peter, I'm a goner."

"Dragons, we can deal with Harry, but we'll get to that in a minute. I haven't got long here... we can't risk anyone seeing me. There are some things I need to warn you about." 

"What?" We listened quietly as Peter explained every warning to us for the upcoming trial. 

"Peter, are you sure you're all right?" I asked once he was done. I spent months protecting Peter from well everyone. And now I found myself constantly worrying about him, when he wasn't near me. I was being crazy, I'm a 14-year-old girl, while he's a grown man but I couldn't help myself.

"I'm more than alright, I've been spending the last couple of weeks with your parents, Sirius and Remus."

"Peter, who are you talking to? Is it Harry and Charlotte?" A familiar voice said, before we saw a hand poke out in the fire, pushing Peter's head, and my father's face popped up next to him.

"What are you two doing?" I laughed. 

"I wanted to wish you good luck Harry. If we were allowed to be there, we would come, but Dumbledore won't budge. We begged him to come all afternoon after we left his office but the answers still no." Dad signed, before two more heads popped into the fireplace. 

"What are you guys doing? This is dangerous." Harry hissed at them. But I only had one thought in mind.

"How do you guys look on the other side?" I couldn't help but ask. I was imagining four backsides sticking out of a fireplace, and my mum rolling her eyes at there antics. 

"I wanted to see the common room, and wish you luck Harry, you'll be amazing," Sirius said.

"Remember everything I taught you last year, and read up on everything, and practice the spells," Remus whispered.

"I'm going to die,"

"Don't say that Dumbledore won't let you get hurt," Dad said, and I had to fight an eye roll.

"Sure, he will," I whispered.

"If these walls could talk, or that couch," Sirius said, smirking.

"It would barf," Peter commented,

"Shut up, Wormtail, at least I got some."

"Not in front of my children!" Dad yelled,

"I'm never sitting on that couch again," Harry gaged, as I shook my head, fighting back a barf. 

"Will you four be quiet? Someone could hear you." I warned.

"I didn't say anything," Remus muttered, but it was useless considering we could already here footsteps coming down the boy's dormitory. 

"Go, there's someone coming," Harry whisper shouted.  

"Good luck Harry!" 

"You'll do great!" They whispered before all disappearing. I stood up the ache in my knee's from sitting on them for too long hurt like a bitch.
