Back at Hogwarts things had improved, not many people were still talking about my mugshot being spread around so i had some peace of mind about that.

Quidditch season was approaching meaning that the semi-final match between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff was in the next few days, and just two days before that was the second task.

As i had promised Harry i was now trying to teach him the charm that i had used to breathe underwater, although it wasn't going as well as either of us had hoped.

It was a Sunday which meant we didn't have lessons so Harry, Hermione, Ginny and Ron and myself were down at the black lake.

It was absolutely freezing and i was in a bikini in a cold lake with harry, trying desperately to get him to focus.

'Harry i know you have a lot on your mind right now but i need you to figure this out before i freeze' I huffed, rubbing my hands together as i shivered in the water.

'Okay okay, show me one more time' He breathed, clearly cold himself.

I muttered the spell and submerged my body into the water, being able to breathe and see perfectly fine. I swam around for about five or so minutes, diving deep into the lake before resurfacing.

'Oh there she is' Georges voice came, who was sat on the shore of the lake, leaning on a tree with Fred.

'What the bloody hell are you doing in there?' Fred remarked, the pair of them only just getting here.

'Trying to teach harry this charm' I moaned, my fingers starting to turn blue.

'Okay, let me try this again' He told us, muttering the spell and sinking into the water, staying under for thirty seconds or so before coming back up, coughing and choking up water.

I rolled my eyes, muttering curses under my breath.

'Maybe you need to force it more' I said 'Try it again'

As he muttered the spell and dived his head underwater i took the opportunity to hold his head down, applying so much pressure so he couldn't come back out.

'Bianca!' Hermione screamed, noticing the boy struggling.

'Give him a second' I replied, ignoring my friends worried reactions.

After a minute or so Harry relaxed, at first i had to admit the possibility of him drowning was on the cards. I let go, his body not coming up, no movement at all.

'Bianca oh my god' Ginny exclaimed, standing up from where she was sitting.

The twins didn't have much of a reaction, they were just curiously looking to see if anything would happen.

Thankfully, harry started swimming, diving down deep into the lake and not coming up for air.

I smiled, happy that i could now get out of the freezing lake and warm up.

I walked out, heading towards where Fred was unwrapping my towel for me, passing it to me for me to hold in around my body. I sat beside him on the tree, his hold warming me up as he rubbed my arm.

The others were happily cheering Harry on, who was now like an excited child, coming in and out of the water, testing how long he could do it for.

'I've got just the thing to warm you up bianca' Jules's tuneful voice came as she joined us, holding two freshly rolled joints in the hand.

I laughed, standing up to change before doing anything else.

I undid the ties on my bikini, holding the front so I wouldn't flash anyone as i pulled on a dry oversized T-shirt.
