The goblet boosted its blue flame once more into the air and shot out the piece of paper that held the name of the Hogwarts contestant for the tournament. Dumbledore unfolded the piece of paper and read the name aloud, shouting it so his voice echoed throughout the hall.
"Cedric Diggory!" he bellowed.
**Y/N's POV**
The world around me seemed to slow down. When Cedric got up everything seemed to slow down more. My mind was stuck on the question 'Why? Why him?' . My mind started to circle that question. Small tears started to run down my cheek, so I wiped them with my school jumper. I slowly got up and started to slowly walk out the hall. I felt everybody's eyes boring into the back of me.
I walked out of the great hall and walked around the school in hopes of finding a place where no one can find me as well as bother me. I walked around the school fields, I went behind the greenhouse and saw a tree with flowers dotted around it except for one spot, that was overlooking the mote around the school.
I leaned back onto the bark of the tree and let out a sigh. I closed my eyes slowly breathing in the fresh air. I was too comforted to not hear the footsteps coming towards me.
**Neville's POV**
I walked to the quiet place I found when I was in my second year here. I was walking towards the tree until I heard a sigh coming from the spot I normally sit. I peeked around the tree to see a hufflepuff girl. I instantly recognized her from the library a couple days ago. I felt heat climb up to my face when I remembered her sweet smile and her soft hand brushing against mine.
I stared for another amount of time until she spoke. "So. You going to keep staring or are you going to come and sit down and introduce yourself?" she said opening her eyes and turning her head to face me. She had a questioning yet warm smile and her E/C eyes held curiosity and kindness with a hint of mischief. I nodded silently and slowly walked over to where she was sitting. She shuffled to make space for me next to her. I sat down next to her, my head hung low, not making eye contact.
"I wanted to say thank you for the book you let me borrow from the library." she said nudging my arm with her shoulder lightly. I nodded and looked up at her my eyes meeting hers. "So you gonna tell me your name?" she asked with a smile.
"O-oh, m-m-my nam-mes N-Neville.." I stammered. "Y/N! Nice to meet you Neville!" she said with a brighter smile as she stuck out her hand. I hesitantly took it and shook her hand. My only thought was how small and soft her hand was and that it fit perfectly in mine. It was almost like two puzzle pieces fitting together. I got lost in my thoughts once again, my mind trailing off just staring at our connected hands. I was cut off my thoughts, when I heard the sound of footsteps of a group. I was going to get up to see if it was the golden trio of Hogwarts, but I was very wrong...
