All I could focus on was the last task, I was so scared and worried. I was constantly busy making sure that both Cedric and Harry were prepared that I completely forgot about my birthday. 

I had walked down to breakfast alone since everyone else was already up. I was glad that it was finally the weekend, the third task is four days away and I was stressing as if I was someone competing. 

As I walked into the great hall I got one of the biggest scares of my life when Cedric had purposefully scared me, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" he screamed so the entire hall could hear.

"What?" I asked confused.

"It's your birthday dummy, you know, the big fifteen!" He laughed as he gave me a hug.

"Shit! I've been so busy that I didn't even realise." I was stunned and weirded out by myself, usually I didn't forget my birthday, it was a rather strange feeling.

"Here" He began as we sat down with my friends, "just a little gift for my lil sis." I laughed at his comment and gratefully took the gift.

I opened it slowly and finally saw that it was my favourite book. The copy that I had had completely worn out. The Tales of Beedle the Bard, it was a lovely gold hard book cover. I couldn't help but smile and give him the biggest hug.

"Happy birthday Fawn." I heard my father say behind me.

"Birthday?! You didn't tell us it was your birthday!" George exclaimed.

"I didn't know, I had completely forgotten until just now." I giggled at my stupidness.

"Your gift is back home, you shall recieve it over the summer." He said with a slight smile tugging at the corner of his lips. I couldn't help but smile which enabled my vocal chords apparently because I had nothing to say.

"Okay, when are we are throwing you a party!?" George said after my father had walked away.

"What's this about a party?" I heard Onyx ask out of nowhere.

"It's Fawn's birthday today! Did you know?" George answered.

"NO. WHAT?!" She practically yelled.

"Neither did she" Hermione replied and everyone started to burst into fits of uncontrollable laughter. 

The birthday surprise definitely lightened up my constant fear of the tournament, we spent most of the day talking about my past birthdays whilst walking around the grounds in the lovely summer heat, well it was nice while it lasted at least.

"I literally cannot eat any more, i'm sorry." I said to both Fred and George after feeling completely stuffed with food from dinner.

"Alright then, common room?" George asked, finally giving in though Fred didn't seem too keen. He gave me an almost death stare, as if I was lying.

"Freddie, if I could eat more I would. Let's just head back to the common room okay?" 

He didn't even reply, just stood up and lead the way out of the hall. George and I followed while he started talking about quidditch.

"Oi!" I heard someone yell as we entered an empty corridor "You fucking slut!" Pansy fucking pug-face. 

"What do you want Pansy?" George asked with a sigh.

"This bitch needs to keep her hands off my man." She squealed.

"Fuck off Pug. I have no interest what so ever in your man." I replied, turning to walk away and have a nice birthday evening with my favourite people.
