This Can't Be Happening

Dragons

~ Cedric ~
        Professor McGonagell told me yesterday that Nadia Fox was going to be helping me with the tournament. I was absolutely furious, I told McGonagell that i didn't need help but she just looked at me with a look of disbelief. I knew i needed help with the challenges but not help from bloody NADIA FOX, this is going to be a very long six months. I tried to figure out why on earth Nadia would even agree to help me, there must be something in it for her, i know there is why else would she choose to help me, it doesn't make sense.
        I was meeting with her in like two hours. I decided to go meet up with Dorian for an hour to get myself in a good mood before Nadia put me in a shit one.
      I had just finished practicing spells  with Dorian and was on the way to go meet with Nadia. I didn't know how to prepare myself for this.

~Nadia~
      I was waiting for Cedric in the Astronomy Tower, where all our meetings are going held so other competitors couldn't hear his tactics.
     He was 5 minutes late, I don't know why I'm surprised, he is a sloppy and  arrogant Hufflepuff after all.
      I could hear footsteps coming from up the stairs, and heavy breathing. He's going to have to work on his fitness obviously.
    He strolls in through the arched doorway with not a care in the world, so arrogant.
    "Your Late" I snap at him
    "Well I am the champion here not you so I can come at whatever time I want"
    " No, I'm not putting up with any of your arrogance or feeling superior to me because your not, so just be on time ok, I have things to do other then help you so a little gratefulness would be nice"
I said in a frustrated tone hoping he'd get the memo that he shouldn't make this more difficult for himself
      " Ok, Fine I'll try to be on time from now on whatever"
      I contemplated telling him what the Twins told me last night after my meeting with McGonegall, that the next challenge will be a one on one challenge against dragons. I thought it might freak him out that I know so much already, so I tell him, I need him to think that I'm in control of these arrangements not him.
      "The first task is a one on one challenge with a dragon that will be chosen on the day"
     He seemed taken a back by what I said , good , he should be afraid this is what he's gotten himself into.

~Cedric~

     She was sitting there waiting for a response, I didn't have one, Dragons really DRAGONS they couldn't have picked something remotely easy for the first task it had to be dragons.
      Bloody hell!
       " I'm afraid of fire"
      Shit! I didn't mean to just blurt that out, I couldn't help it I was nervous, she made me nervous with her stares and curly black hair. Sometimes she reminded me of a interrogator the way she looks at people like she can read there minds and see all my secrets , freaky.
     " what do you mean your afraid of fire"
   "You heard me"
    "well isn't this just great " she sighed and rubbed her forehead like she was about to get a migraine.
    "What are we gonna do"
    " What are WE gonna do, WE aren't going to do anything, YOU are going to get your life together and stop being a pussy"
    " It's not that easy Nadia" for some reason I liked her name very much it just kinda rolled off the Tongue.  
    " ok ok here's what we are going to do today, you are going to run up and down those stairs until you figure out a way to get over yourself and when your done that, you can let me know, and we can figure out what to do from there deal"
     I swear this girl has it out for me, it's really not an uncommon fear. She was looking at me with fire in her eyes like she was about to turn my ass around and go throw me down the stairs herself. So I got up and just started running. I really did feel like I was running for my life though.
