Chapter 35.

A few months had passed. It was October, and the school seemed to be cleaner and fancier than usual.

We had another new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Professor Alastor Moody. He had apparently been an auror before coming to work at the school.

I entered the Great Hall and sat down at my table. Soon enough, Draco came and joined me. Dumbledore stood and did his yearly speech, but this time he added some extra stuff.

"This year, Hogwarts won't just be your home, it will be home to Durmstrang and Beauxbatons. Hogwarts is holding the Triwizard Tournament. Because of the dangers in the past, the Minister has decided to make it that you can only enter the tournament if you are seventeen--"

"Rubbish. That's rubbish!" the twins yelled.

"Silence! I must warn you. You shouldn't enter this tournament lightly. It is very dangerous. There is no backing out of it once you are picked. You will write your name on a piece of paper and put it in the Goblet of Fire. Then it will choose the players. Enjoy the feast." Dumbledore finished his speech and sat down.

"If you could enter, would you?" I asked.

"No. Would you?" Draco asked.

"No way. I have enough problems as it is," I said. "I reckon you have to be insane to even consider putting yourself into the tournament."

"Agreed." Draco started eating.

I ate the food then Dumbledore stood.

"We will now welcome Durmstrang."

The boys entered the room. They started performing a bit of a performance with their staffs.

A lot of the girls started fawning over a few of them. They were handsome and looked very strong, I wouldn't deny it, but I wasn't attracted to any of them.

"And now, Beauxbatons."

The girls pranced in doing a few spins and tricks with ribbons.

"Draco!" I slapped his arm.

He had been staring at some girl from beauxbatons.

"You just got me back. Do you seriously want to lose me to one of those fancy girls?" I asked with a hint of annoyance in my voice.

"No. Sorry," he said.

"It's fine, but if you are going to keep your eyes on someone, you can put them on me."

"Okay then." He looked me in the eyes. "You get prettier and prettier everyday."

"Can't say the same for you, Mr Malfoy," Snape said, coming up behind us.

"Good one, Professor Snape. Oh, I never apologised for Harry last year. Sorry about that, he's an asshole. And he doesn't like you," I apologised.

"I don't exactly like him either. Anyway, I was coming to speak to you about your detentions from last year. This isn't on my word, of course. I tried to get you out of it, but apparently you have two more detentions to complete," Snape said.

"Who said that?" I asked.

"Professor Flitwick. Now I must go. You have to see him in his office tonight and tomorrow night." And with that, the professor left.

"Freaking fantastic!" I grumbled.

"Hi, Sav," the twins said, sitting down next to me.

"Guys, you know you are going to get a lot of crap for sitting down at the Slytherin table, no less inches away from Draco Malfoy. Right?" I questioned.

"We know. But we don't care. We couldn't help but notice that your face fell when Professor Snape said something to you. What's up?" George asked.

"I have to make up for two detentions I didn't go to last year. It's not my fault I was busy saving an innocent man's life who is my godfather. I mean, jeez. You would think the teachers here would be a bit more understanding, but no. Now I have a detention." I got up and went to the Charms classroom.

I soon completed mine, and after a lot of explaining, managed to get out of the next one.

I left the classroom and went into my common room. Draco was sitting on the couch waiting for me.

He took my hand and took me to his room. He already had my pj's in his room waiting on his bed. He was already changed. I went into the bathroom and got changed before crawling into bed next to Draco.

"Goodnight, Draco." I gave him a kiss on the cheek before burying my face in his neck.

"Goodnight, Sav. I love you." He gave me a kiss on the forehead.

"I love you too." I smiled and fell asleep.
