After that big conversation and finding out that I would be in the Tri Wizard Tournament, we were all sent back to our rooms. I walked with Harry until we got to the Gryffindor entrance.

"Harry." I said, almost in a whisper.

"Yeah?"

"I'm scared. I mean first we see my father's mark and now this? It just doesn't feel right."

"We should tell Sirius."

"Yeah, I'll write him... I haven't in a while." He nodded and was about to say the Gryffindor password, but before he could I whispered again, "Harry."

"Yeah?" He said, not being able to stop himself from smiling.

"Thanks."

"For what?"

"For not automatically suspecting it was me."

He sighed and took my hand. I tried to avoid eye contact, but I couldn't. It was like his eyes were calling out to mine. "You're not evil, Lizzy. No matter what anyone says. Now, we should get some sleep. I'll see you tomorrow okay?"

"Okay." (A/N: I swear if anyone puts a TFIOS comment I will ... eat your food? See this is why I'm not a gangster...)

He smiled and gave me a hug. "Goodnight Liz."

"Goodnight Harry."

Once I entered my room, Raven and Sarah were waiting for me on my bed along with Floyd, who was practically on top of them. It was kind of humorous how they were all trying to fit on one small bed.

"I didn't think you had it in you." Raven said, smiling. She then ran up to me and hugged me tightly. "I'm so proud of you." She said into my hair.

I couldn't help but laugh a little. I knew Raven was being silly. I understood how she was trying to lighten the situation and I couldn't help but love her for trying, but I knew I had to focus.

Something fishy was going on and I had to find out what.

I woke up to someone shaking me awake. I refused to open my eyes or else the terrorists would win. Instead, I kicked to where I thought the person was and all I got in reply was a familiar 'Ouch!' I opened my eyes and saw Professor McGonagall.

Immediately, I stood up and apologized. "I'm so so sorry. I thought you were one of my roommates."

I looked around and found Raven and Sarah silently laughing at me from our bathroom door. "That's alright. I just came to inform you that there's a interview for all the champions today."

The event of the previous night then came back to me. I was in the Tri Wizard Tournament and so was Harry. "So, theres no getting out of that huh?"

"No. I'm afraid not, Elizabeth."

"Just great." I mumbled.

"Sorry, say again?"

"Never mind."

"Okay. Well, the meeting starts in about an hour so get ready and I will meet you in the common room to take you there." I nodded and she left.

After she closed the door, I ran in the shower, ignoring Raven and Sarah's comments. I spent about a good 15 minutes in there then I came out and dried my hair, brushed my teeth; the normal routine.

I put on my robes and put my hair in a ponytail. I put everything I thought I would need in my enchanted purse and went out the door.

I walked into the room to see everyone already there. Harry looked back at me and smiled. Cedric looked a little uncomfortable, but he forced a smile. I wondered if he thought I had put my name in the goblet.
