August 18,1994, the Quidditch World Cup. Harry and I went to The Burrow last night so we could go with the Weasleys.
"Harry wake up!" I shook Harry to try and wake him up. He woke up with a jolt and had sweat running down his face. "You okay?" I ran my fingers through his sweaty hair.
"Yeah. Good morning." He kissed me quickly and I walked to my room to get ready. I could hear Hermione yelling in the boys' room, "Honestly Ronald, get up and get dressed." She stomped into the room we're sharing with Ginny and started grabbing clothes from her trunk.
I started changing into my outfit and putting on my jewelry. I wore a black crop top, a brown zip up hoodie, and ripped jeans. I also wore my beat up air forces, the necklace that Harry got me, and rings including me and Harry's matching one.

I walked downstairs to get a quick breakfast before we leave. As I passed the boys' room I noticed Ron was still sleeping so I decided to wake him up. I backed up a little then ran and jumped on to of Ron.
"NOVA!" He screamed. I ran downstairs and go the table so I could grab food before Ron came to eat it. I grabbed bacon, sausage, and pancakes, and pumpkin juice.
I heard Ron running down the stairs and when he got go the table he took some bacon off my plate. "Hey! That was mine!" I hit him on the side of the head. "We'll it's mine now." I rolled my eyes and grabbed another piece.
I turned around when I heard more steps come from the stairs and I saw Harry in jeans and a hoodie with messy hair and rings on every other finger including our matching one.

"You look good." I ruffled his already messy hair and kissed his cheek then went back to eating. Everybody else came downstairs and ate breakfast quickly before we left.
We had been walking for about an hour and I was getting really tired. "Harry can you give me a piggy back ride?" I whined.
"Yeah." He switched his backpack to his chest and I jumped on his back. He caught my thighs and held me up. "I'm surprised you can hold me but then again you do have big strong quidditch arms." I squeezed his bicep and ruffled his hair.
"I have big strong quidditch arms?" We were both laughing so hard that he almost dropped me. "You do though." I kissed his cheek and we saw a man up ahead.
"It's about time you came." The man shook hands with Mr. Weasley. "This everybody is Amos Diggory. He works with me at the Ministry." He introduced. A person dropped down from the tree in front of us, "And this strapping young lad must be Cedric, am I right?"
"Yes sir." Cedric shook Mr. Weasley's hand and I heard Ginny and Hermione giggling beside us.
"Are these all yours Arthur?" Amos questioned. "Only the redheads. We brought along Hermione Granger, Nova Lupin-Black, and Harry Potter."
I got off Harry's back and started walking with Hermione and Ginny. I saw Harry run up to walk with Ron. I felt a presence behind me and I turned around to see Cedric. "Hey, I'm Cedric." He held out his hand for me to shake.
"I'm Nova. Nice to meet you." I shook his hand and he held on to my hand a little longer than I expected him to. I laughed awkwardly, "You're the captain of the Hufflepuff team right?" We kept walking to the port key.
"Yeah, I am. I'm the seeker too." He smiled at me. "Yeah I've seen you play. You're pretty good." I complimented him. "Thank you."
We eventually got to the port key and we all got on the floor and touched the boot. "Why's everybody touching that manly old boot?" Harry questioned.
"That's not any old boot." One of the twins said. "That's a port key." The other said. (Sorry I was to lazy to find out who said what lol)
"3. 2– HARRY!" I grabbed Harry's hand and put it on the boot. We started spinning and Mr. Weasley yelled for us to let go. We let go and we fell fast and then finally hit the ground hard. Fortunately, Harry broke my fall and I landed on his chest.
"I'm sorry Harry." I said as he groaned loudly. "No you're ok, you're pretty light actually." I laughed and kissed his cheek. I got up off of him and helped him up. Mr. Weasley, Mr. Diggory, and Cedric all came floating down and helped the others.
The whole way walking to our tent me and Harry held hands and were talking about the players on Puddlemere United. We got to our tent which had a sign on top that had Weasley spelt wrong and looked like it wouldn't fit two grown adults.
Everybody stepped in and me and Harry were the last to enter. What you saw on the inside is never in a million years what I would expect.
Then again we have magic.

After an hour or two we walked up the stairs to our seats in the stadium. "Blume dad, how far up are we?" Ron questioned while looking around.
"We'll put it this way, if it rains, you'll be the first to know." We heard a snarky voice from below. We all looked over the railing to see Draco Malfoy and his horrid father standing there.
"Father and I are in the Minister's box. Special invite from Cornelius Fudge himself." Draco boasted proudly. I rolled my eyes at how arrogant he was. "Don't boast Draco, no need with these people." Lucius hit Draco in the chest with his staff which looked more like a cane.
"Is he that old that he needs a cane?" I whispered in Harry's ear. We snickered then kept walking to our seats.

After the match we were all back in our tent and serenading Ron about his love for the one and only, Viktor Krum.
"Viktor I love you, Viktor I do! When we're apart, my heart beats only for you!" We all sang together. We heard screaming from outside of the tent. "Looks like the Irish have got their pride on." The twins joked.
Mr. Weasley came rushing in, "That's not the Irish." We all ran outside to see tents on fire, muggles floating upside down in the air, and masked and cloaked figures walking around. "Get back to the port key everyone!" Mr. Weasley yelled for people to stay together and be careful.
I ran hand in hand with Harry, we were bumping into so many people that I didn't even notice that he wasn't running with me. "HARRY! HARRY WHERD ARE YOU?!" I screamed. Ron and Hermione who were in front of me stopped running and turned around to scream his name too.
After about thirty minutes of looking the fires stopped and everybody was gone. We heard a shout in the distance and started going towards it. I tripped over something and fell, I heard the thing groan and move beside me. "Harry? Is that you?" I tried to see in the darkness to make out who I tripped on.
"Nova?" The person questioned. "Oh my god! We've been looking for you!" I hugged him tight and Ron and Hermione ran up to us. We all stood up until Harry yelled duck.
A bunch of people shot spells at us. "STOP! That's my son! Ron, Harry, Hermione, Nova are you all right?" He asked in panic. "Yes sir." I replied.

We got back to The Burrow after being questioned by Barty Crouch Sr. about the Dark Mark that was conjured in the sky. We were able to leave after we convinced him that it wasn't us who did it.
