Harry Potter. Hermione X Male Reader Story

Task Scores and Creaky Doors

(Y/N)'s POV

The water was a lot colder than I expected it to be, but I still dived deeper, following after Harry, who was oddly transformed to look like he had flippers, he was tearing through the water faster than anyone else could manage.

I saw Fleur swimming alongside me, trying not to freak out at the sight of her in a swimsuit, unfortunately, my teenager-ness and her veela-ness, as well as girl-ness, took hold. I gave her a thumbs up and mouthed "Looking good." 

She frowned and used her wand to launch some rocks at me, "Yeah, I deserved that." Honestly the rest of the swim over was a breeze, nothing attacked me, everything was going perfect, until I had a slight cough, the spell was wearing off, I picked up the pace. Only stopping once I found it. 

A whole crowd of merpeople were floating in front of houses that lined what looked like a mer-version of a village square. A choir of merpeople was singing in the middle, calling the champions toward them. Five people were bound tightly to the tail of the stone merperson. Harry was right.

Speaking of Harry, he was in front of me, his eyes darting between Ron and Hermione, I swam up beside him, pointing to Ron, then to Hermione and myself, he shook his head, pointing to the fifth person who I hadn't even registered, but instantly recognised, Luna.

Forgetting about my waning charm I paused to wrap my head around this. So long that Cerdic came along and swept off a girl I now recognised as Cho Chang. But this still didn't make any sense!

So, Hermione was mine yeah? If Ron was Harry, Cho was Cedric, the little girl was Fleur, then Luna was Viktor? Wait, that doesn't make sense. Unless Luna was mine, in which case Hermione was Viktor'.

No, there has to be some mistake, I tried to hurry, cutting the binds around Hermione, intent on taking her as well and then... I didn't get to finish my thought, speak of the devil. At first I thought it was a shark.

I drew my wand to defend myself, but luckily, I saw two duck footed legs kicking behind the sharks torso, and realised it was Krum, who had clearly very poorly tried to transfigure himself, without hesitation he glided over to a still vacant Hermione, grabbed her from me and quickly began to rise to the surface.

I snapped out of it, not wanting to be outdone again by this Bulgarian prat, quickly I severed the ties around Luna and made off after him, kicking my legs as fast as I could, leaving Harry behind after mouthing a quick, "Hurry up!" To him.

I raced with Krum the whole way to the surface, it was getting harder and harder to breathe, I could barely see anymore, there was ringing in my ears as air bubbles flooded out of my mouth, but I wasn't going to let that stop me.

Luckily Krum's janky transfiguration meant he was a little slow, I was able to keep up, rising to the surface frantically, and lucky too because my charm wore off at that moment. As soon as we broke the surface of the water Luna and Hermione were taken out of their trances.

Frantically kicking and spluttering in the water, but it wasn't over yet, me and Viktor scooped up our respective treasures and raced each other to the platform, I just managed to get there before him.

I heaved a drenched Luna onto the platform then also gave Hermione a nudge up. Leaving Viktor to do it himself. I looked at the clock, seventy minutes, new personal best for my charm. I was about to join them when I looked over to see who else had finished. 

Cedric of course, but no Harry, but that wasn't what worried me most, what did was Fleur stood on her own, pacing up and down looking very worried and bone dry. I immediately felt a pit in my stomach, thinking back to that girl under the lake. Hermione offered me a towel, which was tempting.
