As the hours of the day increased Jane’s nerves grew and grew as did her excitement. As it was a Saturday she spent her whole day with Cedric and his friends around lake. They then had their second feast in two days , but Jane was so nervous she could hardly eat and she wasn’t even in with a shot of getting it she was just so scared of Cedric’s fate and she did not like being parted from him. She was sitting at the Gryffindor table with Ginny , when all the plates had been cleared away all the students looked eagerly at Dumbledore who then told them that if they were selected champion they would go into the chamber behind the staff table and receive their first instructions. Jane cast her eyes to Cedric, who was looking nervous “Good luck” she mouthed to him he nodded appreciatively. The goblet made it’s first decision and Dumbledore pulled out a piece of paper and said aloud “ The Durmstrang champion is Viktor Krum.” Jane clapped along with everyone else as the boy her brother had tried to set her up with went into the room. Another flicker of flames and Dumbledore caught another piece of paper and called “ The champion for Beauxbatons is Fleur Delacour” , Jane’s supposed look a like got up gracefully and followed Krum. ‘Just the Hogwarts champion left‘, Jane thought. She really wanted Cedric to get it but a small part of her wished he would not. She turned her head so she could Cedric’s reaction as Dumbledore pulled out the final piece of paper “ The Hogwarts champion is Cedric Diggory.” Jane jumped up and down she was so happy for Cedric and apparently so were the Hufflepuffs who were now cheering wildly. Cedric stood up and made his way between the two tables, when he came to Jane he stopped quickly. He kissed her cheek as she whispered “Well done I’m so proud of you.” He made his way up to the room where all the champions went. A smile plastered Jane’s face that she just couldn’t get rid of, not that she cared ,she was going out with a triwizard champion. Other people’s smiles soon vanished when Harry’s name was called out of the Goblet. Jane didn’t care nothing could spoil this mood she was in. She turned to Ginny as they walked out of the great hall “ Can you believe it , Cedric’s the champion” she said excitedly, but she didn’t hear Ginny’s response as her eyes had just connected with someone’s she had not spoken to in months. She just stared , it was as if no one else existed ; just her and Blaise. She made her way over to him “Hey Blaise we haven’t spoken in ages I’ve missed you” she said to him

“That’s because you’ve been busy” he almost spat , he didn’t like being angry with her but he just hated seeing her with him it brought out this jealous monster from deep inside him and it engulfed his mind, plaguing his thoughts . “I’m sorry Blaise I really I am” she said hurt

“About what?” he asked irritably

“About ignoring you , I feel really awful about it, we used to be such good friends and then whenever I get a boyfriend I just ignore you”

“Yeah you do” he said

“Blaise please forgive me , I hate that you’re angry with me” she pleaded, seeing the genuine emotion in her eyes he said “I’m not angry with you Jane, I’m just annoyed and hurt we’ve been friends for years and yet the minute a boy comes around you don’t pay any attention to me , its not fair Jane, if you really want to be my friend you can’t just spend time with me when your boyfriends busy , I’m not a second option and when I wanted to tell you something really important you just told me to shove off”

“Well then tell me now” she said desperately

“No it doesn’t matter now”

“Blaise it obviously does otherwise you wouldn’t still be mentioning it, please just tell me” she said holding his wrist , looking deeply into his eyes pleadingly. Blaise stared back , no one was around and she wanted to know , so why didn’t he just tell her? He decided he would this was it and it would change her mind about Cedric and they could be together and it would perfect. Mustering up his courage he said “Jane for a long time-”
