Chapter 5: short tempered, but loved. Song: Dog Days Are Over-Florence + The Machine
"Fred! George!" The girl screamed from one end of the hallway, way down at the other end, two sets of ginger heads turned around.
Florence couldn't help the big smile that appeared on her face, She was so busy last night after everything that she hadn't been able to see her two best friends after what had happened. Before she could even comprehend what was happening, the excitement she was feeling took over her body.
Florence was running full speed ahead towards the two, She ran up to the two jumping into both of their arms. Quickly the boys reacted, catching her. Florence's arms flew around both their necks meanwhile the twos boys arms wrapped tightly around her. Finally, she pulled away looking at the two, a large smile on her face. "Are you guys proud of me?"
"Are we proud of her? She asks" Fred spoke, scoffing and rolling his eyes.
"We couldn't be anymore proud of you" George spoke, looking down at the girl, a soft smile on her lips.
"What's your plan?" Fred asked, curiosity getting the best of him.
"Honestly, I'm not sure yet. I need to try and figure out the task, how's Harry?" Florence asked worrying about her competition, she couldn't help but worry for the boy.
"You know you're suppose to be against him" George spoke up.
"I can't go against Harry, He's just a boy. Plus that would make you fratinizing with the enemy" Florence spoke, winking at the boys before beginning to walk. "Walk with me"
The boys looked to each other, shrugging before, walking on either side of her. "If I find something out, I'll tell Harry and just Harry. Just so he can plan ahead."
"I heard a rumour that It's a group of dementours" George spoke up and Fred swallowed, nervous for his friend.
"Well than it's a good thing I can already cast a Patrounous" Florence spoke non-clantly, she knew it wasn't Dementours, that was too easy these days.
"Miss Jane" Florence turned around to see Snape, making his way towards her. The twins mumbled a goodbye to Florence before walking away.
"Hello Proffessor, how are you today?" Florence asked, offering a small smile to the raven haired man.
"I am fine, today. It's time for the Tri-Wizard tournament interviews, please come with me" Florence was unaware that there would be interviews, but non the less she followed behind Snape as the two weaved their way through students in the hallways and he took her into a room.
She made her way into the small room, noticing that Fleur, Krum, and Harry had already arrived. A woman with blonde hair, bright blue eyes, and red lips ushered Florence towards the rest of the champions, arranging them for a picture.
"I want to start with Harry," she smirked "Youngest first"
Florence watched as the woman roughly grabbed Harry's arm, pulling him away from the group. Florence could already tell she didn't like this woman, Rita Skeeter. She watched as a notebook and quill followed behind the two, into the other room and Florence couldn't help but roll her eyes at the woman's attitude.
"This is going to be fun" Krum mumbled, and Fleur and Florence couldn't help but giggle.
"Anything she writes in the paper is lies so I can't wait to read mine" Florence grumbled and Fleur nodded in agreement.
"This should be exciting" Fleur spoke, sarcastically. the room was filled with awkward silence as they waited for Rita to finish with Harry's interview, all heads looked up at the sound of the door opening to see Harry return.
"Fleur, you're next" The boy mumbled, making his way out of the room and Fleur stood up, proudly as she made her way to the door that lead to Rita. Leaving Krum and Florence, in an awkward silence.
"So Harry's your friend?" Krum asked and Florence turned around to look at the boy, he was tall and extremely fit. Florence noticed how he was good looking, although not her type.
"Um yes, kinda. I'm best friends with his best friends older brothers, we spend a good amount of time together" Florence explains, her cheeks turning pink as Krum nodded.
" are you working together?" Krum asked, suspiciously.
"Oh! No, absolutely not." Florence awkwardly laughed before continuing. "Harry is talented beyond his years, if anything I do see him as competition almost as much as you guys."
Krum nodded, giving Florence a small smiles as both of them turned to see Fleur exit the room, looking completely different than when she entered. She looked distraught. "Your turn, Florence"
Florence nodded, standing up and making her into the small room. Florence walked down the stairs to find Rita Skeeter sitting down, Florence looked around for a chair for her, seeing that there was none.
"So you are muggle born, correct?" Rita spoke, raising an eyebrow at Florence who was already not impressed with the question.
"Yes that is correct" Florence spoke, her eyes not leaving Rita's.
"Some have been saying that you cheated to get your name picked, that it's only Purebloods that are able to compete or at least have the power to compete" Rita spoke and Florence now glared at the woman.
"It's the Goblet of Fire, it's incredibly powerful, and only somebody incredibly powerful who can produce an incredibly powerful confudus charm, could actually cheat and although I am an incredibly powerful witch, I am not Albus Dumbledore powerful. My magical orgins have nothing to do with me getting in the competition or if I have a chance at winning." Florence explained to the woman, incredibly annoyed.
Rite skeeter raised an eyebrow at the girls change in attitude, Florences eyes moved from Ritas and to the quill and notepad. "Why did you enter the tournament?"
"Because I know that I'm an exceptional Witch and I knew I had a good chance at getting chosen" Florence was quick to answered, leaning over to see what the quill was writing. Florence believes she's the best witch in Hogwarts, much better than the others. She feels as if she has something to prove just because she muggle born. "Oi! lady! that is incredibly incorrect, I do not believe that!"
"Ignore that darling" Florence was mad now, she would not have lies be told about her.
"Absolutly not, Goodbye" Florence stomped over to the staircase, making her way out. Her face was red and hot with anger and Krum took note of this. Florence angirly made her way out, trying to get away as far as possible from that nut job.
