I Fell In Love With Harry Potter

Chapter 14: The Second Task

I followed everyone out the door and down to the lake. In the middle of the lake, was a staduim built on stilts. There was a bridge going to the stadium. We all carefully walked across the bridge to the stadium. At the end of the bridge, was a set of stairs leading to the top of the stadium. I gulped loudly and climbed the stairs to the top. When I got to the top, I could see all the way across the lake. It was a beautiful view. I heard my name being called. I turned around and saw Ron and Hermione sitting on the top row of the bleachers.  I walked up the bleachers to sit with them. "I hope he finds her." Hermione told me as I sat down beside her. "Me too." I replied. Once everyone got seated, Bagman's voice came over the loudspeaker. "Will our champions get ready for the second task, which will start on my whistle. They have precisely one hour to find what is taken from them. On the count of three. One...Two...Three!"  A whistle sounded, and there were splashes in the water. I stood up to see if Harry jumped in yet. "Go Harry Jump in!." I heard myself yell. He looked up at me, waved and jumped into the water. I looked around to see everybody on their feet cheering the champions on. I went to the front so I could see better. Ron and Hermione followed me. I saw two heads coming to the surface of the water. It was Cedric and Cho Chang. They were pulled in my Madam Promfrey and Professor McGonagall. Madam Promfrey covered them up in a towel and took them to the medical area to warm up. A few minutes later, Victor came with Lavender, followed by Fleur and her sister Gabrielle. I stood on my tippy toes to see if I could see Harry coming. I felt my eyes starting to feel with tears. Hermione put her arm around me to comfort me. "It will be okay. He will come." She whispered in my ear. "Brianna, Hermione look there he is!" I heard Ron yell. I broke apart from Hermione and saw Harry carrying Bella in his arms. "Let's go." I told them. I ran down to see them, while Hermione and Ron tried keep up with me. I heard myself repeating his name over and over. When he saw me, ran over to me with the towel around him and Bella in his arms. I could hear the crowd cheering. "I thought you weren't going to make it." I whispered in his ear. "I was attacked by a bunch of grindylow." He explained. He handed me Bella and all three of us walked over to the medical area. Ron and Hermione were already there waiting on us. Madam Promfrey sat Harry down and examined him making sure he was okay. Bella started to cry  in my arms. I started to rock her to get her to calm down. "Shh it's okay Mommy's here." I whispered to her. She kept on crying and crying. "Bring her here." Harry told me. I walked over to him and handed her to Madam Promfrey. She listened to her heart and her lungs. "She's okay just a little shaken from the water." She told us. I smiled at Harry and squeezed his hand. She handed Bella back to me, and went to help Gabrielle and Fleur out. Hermione and Ron came over to us. "I'm glad she's okay." Hermione told me. "Yeah me too. You had us worried little girl." I replied. I looked down at Bella, and she gave me a big toothless smile.I saw Dumbledore crouched down at the water's edge talking to th chief merperson.. Dumbledore was making a screeching sound like the merperson. Once they finished, the merperson swam back into the water and Dumbledore got up and walked over to Bagman and the judges. "Just had a meeting with the chief merperson about what happened underwater. Now we can judge." He told them. The all huddled together to discuss the marks. When they were finished, Bagman's voice came over the loudspeaker again. "Ladies and Gentleman, we have reached our decision. We therefore decided to award marks out of fifty for each of the champions as followed...Fleur Delacour demonstrated the Bubble-Head Charm and reached her hostage. We award her thirty-seven points." Applause sounded the stands. "Cedric Diggory also use the Bubble-Head Charm and reached his hostage. We award him forty-seven points. "Victor Krum used an incomplete form of Transfiguration which was effective, he was second to return with his hostage. We award him forty points." I saw Lavender give him a hug and a kiss on the cheek. "Harry Potter used gillyweed to great effect. He returned last with is hostage but made it before the hour was up. We award him forty-five points." I gave him a big hug. "Your tied with Cedric." Hermione exclaimed. "The third and final task will take place at dusk on the twenty-fourth of June." Continued Bagman." The champions will be notified of what is coming precisely one month beforehand. Thank you all for your support of the champions." When his voice went off of the loud speaker, a quietness swept through the stadium. Everyone got up and headed to the boats. "Let's get back so we can get warm and get changed out of those wet clothes." I told Harry and Bella. Harry wrapped his arm around me and all three of us headed to the boats. We got onto the boat, followed by Ron and Hermione. The boats headed back to the castle. A cold wind swept over me and I started to freeze. I could hear my teeth chattering against each other. "Are you cold?" Harry asked. "Y-Yeah." I replied. He took the jacket he had laying beside him and put it around me. I looked at him and smiled. The boat came to a stop in front of the docks at the castle. All of carefully got out and headed up to the castle. Once we got up to our room, we got changed into warm clothes, and I put Bella down for a nap. Harry and I headed downstairs to sit by the fire. When we got down there, Harry's owl Hedwig was sitting on an arm of the chair. Harry went over to her and untied the letter on her leg. She hooted loudly and soared out the window to the owlery. "Who is it from?" I asked. "I dunno let's open it up and see." He replied sitting on the couch near the fire. He opened it up and read: Dear Harry, Brianna and Bella, You might of never heard of me but my name is Sirius Black. I am a friend of Dumbledore and your guy's parents. I happen to be Harry's godfather. I heard I am a great-godfather. I wanted to say congradulations. I will coming to Hogwarts during your Hogsmede visit to see you guys and your new baby. Dumbledore has given me permission to visit any time I want and I can even stay at Hogwarts too. Can't wait to see you three! Love, Sirius. Harry closed the letter and smiled. "I didn't know you had a god father." I told him, "I found out last year." He told me. "Why didn't you tell me about him?" I asked. "I wanted it to be a surprize." He replied. "Well I like this surprise." I replied back. I heard footsteps on the stairs and saw Hermione and Ron appear out of the darkness. "What's going on down here?" Hermione asked. Harry told them about Sirius's letter. "That's exciting. Sirius is coming to visit." Ron exclaimed. "Wasn't he a mass murderer or something?" I asked. "Everybody thought that but it turned out he wasnt and the charges were dropped." Hermione told me. "Ok now I see." I replied. All four of us sat around and talked about the Hogsmede trip next week, until we were to tired to keep our heads us. We all went to bed dreaming about next week.
