I'm Not Perfect | Seamus Finnigan

Triwizard Tournament

A/N: I AM AN IDIOT!!!!! I forgot to put in the quidditch tryouts!!!! GAAAHHH!!! Well, anyway, Emma's a seeker for the Ravenclaw quidditch team.

Emma's P.O.V.

So apparently, I had missed out on more news, for I had just found out that Riley can also sense death. Wow. I really need to socialize more.

We were at the welcoming ceremony. This was my fourth year at Hogwarts.I snuck over to the Gryffindor table and sat down with Neville, Ron, Harry, Hermione, and Seamus.

Dumbledore stood up, "I have an announcement to make. We will not be holding the quidditch house cup this year."

"WHAT?" Oliver yelled.

"Instead, we will be hosting the Triwizard Tournament." Dumbledore explained what the tournament was, and welcomed the two other schools that would be staying at Hogwarts and competing in the tournament.

"Please welcome the lovely ladies of Beaxbatons Acadamy of Magic!"

A bunch of girls in blue uniforms walked in, smiling with poise.

"And now, Durmstrang!"

The boys from Durmstrang walked in. One of them was Viktor Krum.

"Viktor Krum goes to Durmstrang?" Ron asked,.

Viktor waved at Riley and Riley made a weird face at him, causing him to laugh.

"You know him?" Ron asked her.

"Ever since I was nine."

Ron gaped at her.

Riley just shrugged and listened to Dumbledore.

---------------------------------------------------

I walked into the great hall to see Riley trying to convince her brother Cedric to not enter the tournament.

"Please! You can't!" she said.

"Why not?" he asked.

"Because! I get that feeling everytime someone mentions it!"

"I'll be fine."

She took the paper out of his hands.

"I will not let you."

"Yes you will." he said, reaching for the paper.

She pulled it back, "No."

"You are the most stubborn person I've ever known."

"You can't!" She said.

He got the paper out of her hands and dropped it into the goblet before Riley could take it back.

Riley stormed out of the room. I didn't know if she was angry or terrified. Probably both.

Later that day, Cedric, Fluer Delacour, and Viktor Krum got chosen for the tournament.

Riley looked as if she were about to explode when Cedric got chosen for the tournament.

Then Harry's name came out of the goblet.

Ron thought that Harry had gotten someone to put his name in, but Harry said he had nothing to do with it.

I believed him, but Ron was still angry with him. He was being completely unreasonable.

-------------------------------------

When the Yule Ball was announced, I didn't know what to do.

I would've been okay with going by myself, but then I'd look weird,

I thought that if anyone did ask me, it would be as friends or because they didn't have anyone else to go with.

I let my head fall into my book. Hermione and I were in the library, "Do I have to go?"

"Yes, Emma, you do. I'm making you go whether you're alone or not."

"But-"

"You're going."

I sighed sadly into my book.

"This book smells really old." 

Hermione laughed.

I was walking back to my common room, when I decided to go for a walk around the grounds.

I was walking past the fountain, when Seamus stopped me.

"Oh, hi Seamus." I said.

"Hi Emma!" he took a deep breath, "Do you want to go to the Yule Ball with me? You know.. as.."

"Friends?" I asked sadly.

"Uh.. no.. like.. as my date?"

I smiled.
