Sorry that I haven't uploaded in a long time! I've been doing projects and other shite things XD
Y/Ns PoV (The next day)
"Harry, you told me you'd figured out the egg out weeks ago." I said walking down the bridge with Harry
"The task is two days from now." Hermione yelled running up beside us
"Really? I had no idea." Harry said sounding overly sarcastic
We stopped walking and stood leaned over the bridge
Hermione on the left
Myself to the right
Harry on the middle
"I supposed Viktor's already figured it out." Harry says towards Hermione
"Wouldn't know. We didn't actually talk about the tournament." She says
I hummed slightly
"Actually, we didn't really talk at all. Viktor's more of a physical being." Raising her eyebrows slightly
It took a couple of seconds of silence too realise what Hermione had just said
I let out a small chuckle
Hermione laughed
And Harry smiles giggling slightly
"I just mean he's not particularly loquacious." She says trying too move past her mistake
Harry hums spreading a cheeky grin on his face
"Mostly, he watches me study." She says looking at me and Harry
I now and the same expression Harry did
"It's a bit annoying, actually." She says adding the last part
Me and Harry give each other a cheeky grin of mischief
Hermione changes the subject back onto Harry.
"You are trying to figure this egg out, aren't you?" She ask's trying too sound hopeful
"What's that supposed too mean?" Harry says seriously
"It's just means these tasks are designed to test you... In the most brutal way. They're almost cruel." Hermione said sounding sadder and sadder as she ended her sentence
"And...ummm...." Harry's eyes adverted from Hermione's trying not too pay attention too the conversation
Hermione nodded in my direction too say something
"We're scared for you. You got by the dragons mostly on nerve. We're worried it won't be enough this time." Harry's eyes where gloomed looking into mines
We where stood interrupted by someone yelling "Hey! Potter."
We all look too our left too see Cedric looking at us from afar
Harry started walking in the other direction as Cedric ran towards us
Myself and Hermione gave each other a look undesirable
We'd decided that we'll listen in too the conversation
"How...? How are you?" Cedric asked's softly
"Spectacular." Harry says giving him the eyes of 'What the fuck type of question is that!?!?!'
"Look, I realised that I never thanked you properly for tipping me off about those dragons." Cedric says sounding quite nervous?
"Forget about it. I'm sure you would've done the same for me." Harry says trying too back out of the conversation but Cedric spoke again
"Exactly."
This made Harry stop moving and turn too face him again
"You know the Prefect's bathroom on the fifth floor?" Cedric asked Harry
Harry thought for a moment but slowly nodded
Cedric leans in too Harry ear and whispers something
From analysing Cedric's mouth it looks like he's saying something too do with a bath?
And maybe the fifth floor??
I was shook back into reality by Hermione shaking my shoulder and saying
"I think we should go. Breakfast will be starting soon." She says grabbing my arm dragging me away from the scene
——————————————————————————————
Myself and Hermione where in the Gryffindor common room even though I'm really not supposed too be their but it didn't matter now anyways.
Hermione was rambling on about how Harry should be more on the ball with the tasks and that how is she going too study under 'these conditions.'
All I could think of is what Cedric whispered into Harry's ear
Something about a bath and the fifth floor....
"Y/n! Are you even listening to me?" Hermione said sitting down beside me
"...Yes! I am." I say turning towards her smiling slightly
Hermione furrowed her eyebrows and was just about too tell me off when Harry came through the door.
"Hermione... Y/n! I need your help." Harry says looking a bit panicked
————————————————————————————————
Harry told us about him and his bath on the fifth floor with the golden egg.
"Wait so you went up too the fifth floor took a bath with the egg and it played this melody under water?" I asked him as we where walking too the library to do some research
"Yes, Y/n. That is correct" Harry says a bit annoyed sounding
I hummed slightly but on the inside I was so happy and excited that I got it correct I never usual do. (XD it's me though)
Even though I'm a RavenClaw... I'm not as smart as the others
We've been in the library for nearly and hour now
Ron showed up but he isn't really a big help we is sitting on a chair
Hermione is still searching for books
Harry is sitting face down in a book.
And I'm learning against a bookshelf trying too help but I'm lazy :)
"Harry, Tell me again." Hermione asked
"Come seek us where our voices sound." Harry grumbles
"The Black Lake, That's obvious." Hermione said pasting up and down
"An hour long you'll have to look." Harry again grumbles
Hermione slowly walked towards myself and Harry as she did so she shook Ron awake while was asleep on a chair and passed him the golden egg.
"Again, obvious. Though, admittedly, potentially problematic." Hermione said trying hard too think
"Potentially problematic?" Harry says lifting his head towards myself and Hermione
"When's the last time you held your breath underwater for an hour, Hermione?" Harry says sounding angry and sarcastically
"Stop acting like such a downer Harry." You say eyeing him
Harry looks at you for a split second then puts his he as down in his book again.
Hermione sighed slightly and bent down too Harry's height
"Look, Harry, we can do this. The four of us can figure it out."
Ron sat up and walked over too us and was about too say something when Professor Moody came up too us and said
"I hate to break up the skull session. Professor McGonagall wants you in her office." He says
Harry and I where the first to move but our movement was quickly abruptly was cut off by Professor Moody.
"Not you Potter, L/n, just Weasley and Granger ." He says eyeing myself and Harry
"But, sir, the second task is only hours away, and..." Hermione was interrupted
"Exactly. Presumably Potter is well prepared by now...and could do with a good night's sleep." Professor Moody said calmly
"Go. Now!" He shout's at them
Ron sat down the egg on the desk
They both walked away quickly
I sat down beside Harry and helped him with some books that where lying open.
"Longbottem!" Professor Moody yelled
Neville pokes his head round the corner with a bunch of books
"Why don't you help Potter put his books back." And without another word he walked away leaving the three of us
Harry smiles slightly at him as he sat a couple of books on our desk.
"You know, if you're interested in plants... you'd be better off with Goshawk's Guide to Herbology." Neville says too us trying too be helpful
"Do you know there's a wizard in Nelpal who's growing gravity-resistant tress?" Neville says getting off topic
"Neville, no offence, but I really don't care...about plants." Harry says upset and tiredly
Plants...
"Now, if there's a... Tibetan turnip that will allow me to breath underwater for an hour...then great. But otherwise..." Harry mumbles the last part of his sentence
"I don't know about a turnip. But you could always use-" I cut me Neville by saying
"Gillyweed." I say making Harry and Neville turn towards me
