I was having writer's block on this chapter, the next one will be MUCH more interesting.

The next month was burdened with work that there was not much time to think of anything else. Levin and I were no longer friends. He tried to come up to me multiple times to form some kind of apology but I refused to listen to him. He even tried to owl me letters, which I ended up burning. He soon gave up trying to contact me.

Blaise came out of the Hospital wing a week after the Yule Ball. He was still bruised and battered. Draco made him come up to me and apologize. I accepted his apology but decided never to speak to him again. I'd have to talk to Fred and George about pulling a BIG prank on him. Perhaps one day....

I was caught up in all my classes so I didn't need Draco to tutor me anymore. I had to admit, he was fun to be around with, as long as he wasn't being a bully. Although I was glad that now I could go back to sitting with Cedric in classes. Although Snape still insisted that I do potions with Draco, to which I didn't refuse.

Speaking of Draco, we hadn't talked about the kiss at all. I was kind of upset. Of course to him, it was probably just another kiss. It didn't mean anything. He probably did the same thing with a bunch of other girls. For me, it was my first one. But I didn't bring it up.

Harry and I were still friends. He would update me on his preparations for the tournament, which weren't much. Hermione pestered him so much that he would often come to me just to have a breath of relief. Cedric however figured out the next challenge. We were in Charms class when he told me. "The egg makes a screeching sound right?" He said. I nodded. "So, I tried putting it in the water and listening, and it was mermaids singing! They gave me a clue!" His eyes glinted with excitement. "Ooh, and where did you test this out?" I asked.

He leaned in whispering, "The Prefect's bathroom. It's so cool in there!" I smiled. "I think I'm going to visit it later today." I wanted to see this super cool bathroom that I had heard people talking about.  He described all the different features about the bathroom, and I didn't realize someone was listening in. After class, Cedric left to go tell Harry about the egg. I went into the common room to study.

A couple hours later, after tirelessly finishing my work, I decided I would go visit the bathroom. I was a little worried that someone would randomly burst in so I wore my swimsuit underneath my clothes. It was a black bikini set. I sneaked into the bathroom. There were 14 different faucets open and running. I watched as the huge swimming pool-sized tub bubbled around. I slowly slipped off my clothes and lowered myself inside.

I fluttered around the bubbles, enjoying myself. There was a mermaid picture that laughed. But it was more like she was laughing at me rather than with me.

And that's when I felt 2 arms grab my waist and pull me down beneath the water.
