I wake up by Hermione shaking me and saying Athena over and over again.

"Yes?" I shout.

"Mrs Weasley wants you Now I'm off to wake the boys," she says and I sigh. I get my trunk and pull out blue jeans, my black combat boots and a dark red top then put them on.

"You wanted to see me Molly?" I question.

"I was wondering if you could help me with the breakfast, dear," she says.

"Of course," I say taking out my wand and helping with setting the table and cooking. Finally the boys came down the stairs and started to eat. After we ate we set off.

"Where are we actually going?" Harry asks Ron.

"Don't know. Hey Dad! Where are we going?" Ron replies.

"Haven't the foggiest, keep up!" Arthur says.

"Where do you think we are going?" I ask the twins.

"Maybe to slay a dragon," George jokes and I punch his arm playfully.

"Arthur! It's about time son." A person I recognise as Amos, Cedric's dad. He showed me a picture of him and his dad once which is why I can recognise him.

"Sorry Amos. Some of us had a bit of
a sleepy start. This is Amos Diggory
everyone, he works with me at the ministry. And this strapping young lad must be Cedric, am I right?"

"Yes sir." Ced says.

"Merlin's beard, you must be Harry Potter." Amos says.

"Yes sir." Harry says and I make my way over to Ced.

"Hi Ced," I say hugging him. Over the past couple years me and Cedric have grown really close and you hardly see us apart unless I'm with the trio or twins. I'm going to admit I have grown some feelings for him but he could never like me back.

"Hi Athena," he says hugging back. We pull away and I realise Amos was smirking at us.

"So you are the famous Athena, Cedric told me about. Pleasure to meet you," he states and I shake his hand.

"The pleasure is all mine," I smile softly. We walk on up the horrendous hill, at least I was talking to Ced the whole time.

"That's it sir, just over there" Arthur says.

"Shall we? We don't want to be late." Amos says as we set off once again.
Me and Cedric don't leave each other's side the entire way to the boot on top of the hillside.

"Why are they all standing around that
manky old boot?" Harry asks as we all do around it me and Cedric in between Amos and Arthur.

"That isn't just any old manky boot mate." Fred starts.

"It's a portkey." George finishes.

Everyone is in a circle putting their hands on the boot.

"Time to go. Ready?" Arthur says.

"What's a 'portkey'?" Harry asks.

"After 3. One... Two..." Amos counts

"Harry!" Arthur shouts

Harry rushes over and puts his hand on the boot.

"Three!" Amos shouts.

There's a white flash and suddenly we are all flying through
the air. Everyone cheers.

"Let go kids!" Arthur says.

"What??" My sister shouts.

"Let! Go!" Harry, Hermione and the young Weasleys crash to the ground with a thump. Arthur, Amos,Cedric and me come down more gracefully.

"I bet that cleared your sinuses eh?" Amos says and I laugh at the people I consider siblings lying on the floor. Cedric helps Harry to his feet and I smile at him.

"Thanks." Harry says brushing himself off.

We walk across the field and we see there's a massive crowd gathered and cheering, tents are set up all over.

"Well kids, welcome to the Quidditch
World Cup!"

AHHHHHHHHHHHH

We walk into the crowd, taking in the sights. Music is playing
and people fly about overhead on brooms. We approach a small
tent.

"Parting of the waves I think old chap,
see you at the match." Amos says.

"It was a pleasure meeting you Mr Diggory, bye Ced if I don't see you later see ya at school," I say smiling at Amos and hugging Ced once again. Amos and Cedric separate and walk off.

"Bye Athena," he calls.

"See ya later Cedric." Harry says.

"Home sweet home." Arthur says referring to the tent.
