Unexpected Inheritance [REWRITE]

Chapter Eleven: The Triwizard Tournament Starts

"No. Hermione did." I corrected him.

"Merlin- what else did you get up to?!" He questions.

"You probably don't want to know-" I say remembering the Polyjuice potion incident.

"Hadrian, what did you do?" Draco demands.

"Ahh snuck into the restricted section in our first year, snuck into the Slytherin common room and had a full conversation with you in our second year, and snuck down to Hogsmead our third year and then pummelling you with snowballs and dragged you towards the shrieking shack-" I list off before Draco lets out a grunt of what sounded like disgruntled, embarrassment and horror.

"You did WHAT?! Hadrian! I had to go to therapy after that happened at the shrieking shack! And don't get me started on you sneaking into the Slytherin common room-" Draco looked genuinely upset.

"I'm sorry, I didn't think it would be that bad, also- it was way too easy to polyjuice our way in here considering Snape's the potions professor." I snorted, while Draco made a strangled sound.

I pull him to me to try and help him calm down. He came easily but I could tell he was really upset about this.

"Hey, I'll make it up to you, I promise." I said softly while Draco still looked like he was processing everything.

We sat in silence for a good while, I could practically hear the gears turning in Draco's head as he was thinking about everything. Meanwhile I had opted to grab one of our textbooks to read.

"How did you sneak out of the castle...?" Draco finally asks.

"Invisibility cloak and enchanted map." I hum absentmindedly knowing that I can trust Draco.

"Wouldn't they have been confiscated though?" Draco asks tilting his head to look at me and I put the book down.

"Not when the invisibility cloak is a family heirloom and I could sue the school if they tried to take it, and also Dumbledore's the one who gave it to me. The map's harder to explain, technically Remus took it from me but gave it back to me. I think he, my dad, my godfather and that rat Pettigrew were the ones to make it, my theories not proven yet though." I huff, frowning at having to say that name.

"Invisibility cloaks aren't usually family heirlooms, especially not for Families of pureblood like the Potters." Draco says genuinely confused.

"I don't know the origins, but apparently it came from my ancestors, the Peverells, or that's what my research over the summer got me." I shrug, meanwhile it looked like Draco was trying to figure something out that he just couldn't quite get.

- Time Skip -

I looked around the room as it started to fill up. Fred and George were sitting next to each other, the effects of their attempt to put their names in the cup still slightly there. With everyone now in the hall Dumbledore walked out and started his spiel.

"The champion of Beauxbatons, Fleur Delacour!" Cheers erupted throughout the room and I just politely clapped along, Fluer heading to the champions lounge.

"From Durmstrang, Viktor Krum!" There was a significant raise in cheers at the announcement of the Durmstrang champion, Viktor now following Fleur to the champion lounge.

"And finally, from Hogwarts, Cedric Diggory! And with that we now have our champions-" Before Dumbledore could continue, the cup started sparking again and I could feel a pit in my stomach form. I looked at Draco, dread clearly on my face as Dumbledore snatched the paper out of the air.

"Harry Potter!" Dumbledore called and with that dread realised I sat there frozen. Draco had to gently nudge me after my fake name was called again, I gave him a desperate look.

"I'll see you right after." Draco says softly and I nod before getting up. I'm quickly led to the champion lounge, the other champions look at me confused before Dumbledore comes storming into the room.

"Harry, did you put your name on the Goblet of Fire?!" He questions rather aggressively.

"Upon my magic, and upon Lady Hecate's will, I swear I did not put my name in the Goblet of Fire, or have anyone put my name in, so mote it be." I said smoothly though I was panicking on the inside. I pull out my wand and cast a lumos and then nox showing I still have my magic.

"You will still have to participate Mr. Potter, when your name is pulled it is a binding contract." Barty Crouch explained, and I mentally groaned since I didn't want to out myself as knowing the truth just yet.

"And I would lose my magic if I tried to get out." I sigh, pretending that this actually affects me.

"Correct, though we will be investigating how this has happened since it obviously happened without your consent or knowledge." Barty Crouch vows and I give him a grateful look.

"Now, the first task won't happen for a few weeks, so I would suggest preparing for anything and be ready for when the day comes. You're all dismissed. Harry, I would like to see you in my office." Dumbledore says.

"Professor as much as I would love to, this has been stressful and I would like to go back to my dorm and rest before the Halloween feast. Unless this is urgent, can I leave?" I ask softly.

"Of course my boy, but I do ask we meet soon." He smiles at me in that grandfatherly way that I inwardly recoil at.

With that I left the champion lounge and headed back to the Slytherin dorms and as soon as I entered the room I'm wrapped up in Draco's arms with my brothers not long after with Blaise. We all sort of ended up in a pile on Draco's bed, the security of my mate and my family (along with extended) helped to calm me down enough for at least some rest.

It wasn't until later when Theo walked in, or that's what I assume was happening when Draco shifted to hold me possessively. The nap had definitely been needed though as I felt a lot better then I had earlier.

"The banquet is starting soon unless you want to starve." Theo drawled and the layers of people on me started to shift and move as my brothers and Blaise go up.

Draco still held onto me as the others moved, I shifted in his grip to face him and smiled up at him. He looked at me as if asking what it was.

"Come on, I'm wanting treacle tart and I'm not leaving the Slytherin common room without you." I say nudging at him to get up.

"Alright, alright, though I'm not happy about you participating in the tournament." Draco huffs as he lets me go.

"I'm not either but I'm going to do it anyways, now come on, I'm hungry and don't want to be too far from you." I hum dragging him out of bed after me.

After that the Halloween feast was as good as always, even if I was still tired it would be fine since I had Draco beside me. I wasn't too worried about falling asleep on my treacle tart. After dinner Draco had to help me back to the dorm due to me being tired but it just meant that we ended up cuddling again.
