Royals (Draco Malfoy x Reader)

Chapter 48

"Psst... Harry! Harry! Is that you?" I called and Harry moved towards the curtain "yeah" he muttered, "How are you feeling? OK? The key is to concentrate. After that you just have to..." my voice was quiet "battle a dragon" he replied finishing my sentence, I pushed through the curtain and wrapped my arms around him his hand snaking into my hair and arm around my waist and squeezed me tightly. A bright camera flashes, Rita Skeeter the journalist approaches "Young love! Ohh how.. stirring. If everything goes, unfortunately, today you might make the front page" her voice was rather aggravating "You have no business here. This tent is for champions" he looked at me "and friends." he finished "no matter, We've got what we wanted!" she left and Dumbledore entered, "Good day champions. Gather round, please. Now you've waited, you've wondered and at last, the moment has arrived. The moment only four of you can fully appreciate." the champions and I moved towards the man "oh.. what are you doing here miss Windsor?" he questioned, "oh I'll just go.." I smiled and wished Cedric and Harry luck before quickly exiting the tent and moving towards Hermione and Ron and sitting down beside Ron. Before long it was Harry's turn, the three before him had done wonderfully.  "Three of our champions have now faced their dragons and so each one of them will proceed to the next task. And now our fourth and final contestant." Dumbledore announced, Harry enters the rocky arena. The crowd are cheering his name I stood and began chanting wildly. He sees the golden egg sitting alone, he makes a run for it but the dragon appears. Harry's forced to retreat behind a rock as the dragon flames him. Harry stumbles and falls around the arena. "Your wand Harry!" I shout before sitting down and wrapping my scarf around me tighter, it was so cold. Harry summons a broom. He jumps on and flies off, the dragon gives chase. The dragon bursts through the crowd and they look stunned "No! Harry!" I cry out and stand, Ron grabs my wrist and pulls me back into my seat, "there's nothing we can do, we have to wait" he wrapped an arm around my shoulders and Hermione came to my side and done the same.  The crowds are mostly silent. We see Harry flying towards us and the crowd erupts in shouts of encouragement. He goes straight for the golden egg. "Harry!" I run towards him and wrap my arms around his neck, Hermione and Ron trailing after me "I was so worried!" I grabbed his face and inspected it for any type of injury, I let go of his face and reach into my pocket grabbing my wand, his lip was bleeding and busted up "Episkey" I pointed my wand at his lip and it healed. "Come on now well go to our common room" Hermione spoke and wrapped her arm around my shoulder and I wrapped mine around Harry's. I motioned for Ron to do the same but he rolled his eyes and lagged behind us. 

Harry was held up by multiple Gryffindor students the twins stood underneath him, I stood by their side "We knew you wouldn't die, Harry!" "Lose a leg." "Or an arm." "Pack it in altogether." the twins rotated on who was speaking "Never!" they shouted in unison. Seamus stepped forward "Go on Harry, what's the clue?" Seamus hands Harry the egg, "who wants me to open it!" he yelled and everyone cheered loudly, he opens the egg and a horrific scream echoes from the egg, my hands shoot to my ears and I squeeze my eyes closed, Harry snaps the egg closed and the horrid screaming stops. Ron walks into the room, "Alright everyone, go back to your knitting. This is gonna be uncomfortable enough without all you nosey sods listening in." Fred calls ushering the people out of the room, Hermione and I sat on a nearby couch watching the interaction. It was silent until Ron decided to speak "I reckon you'd have to be barking mad to put your own name in the goblet of fire." He looked at Harry who nodded "took you long enough" he replied it went quiet again "Wasn't just me who thought you'd done it. Everyone was saying it behind your back." Ron muttered "Brilliant! I feel so much better" Sarcasm was laced in Harry's tone and I snickered, Hermione elbowed me and I pretended to be serious again. "At least I warned you about the dragons." Ron stated, "Hagrid warned me about the dragons." Harry retorted "Oh no no, I did. Don't you remember? I told Hermione to tell you that Seamus told me that Parvati told Dean that Hagrid was looking for you. Seamus never actually told me anything, so it was really me all along. I thought you'd be alright, you know after you figured that out." Ron explained and my eyes widened and I began to laugh, Keeling over, "Who could figure that out? That's completely mental." Harry replied and I laughed even more Hermione sent me a stern glare and I gasped for air tears welling in my eyes. "well I was a bit distraught" Ron hissed and I stood quickly "boys!" I looked at them not wanting another fight to break out.
