Chapter One

The crowd erupted in cheers when'd Harry Potter just "poofed" out of thin air,along with a gold throwph and something heavy. Having difficulty to see because of the thousands os of heads, hands and arms in front of her, she tried to jumpand see what was going on.

The sound of snobs and of Potter's cries silent the crowd quickly and before she could realize why someone grabbed her into a very tight hug.

"Calm down, Annie, calm down" Annie Thomas felt a rush of coldness and anger inside. Why would she calm down, because Cedric lost? Well, that certanly would pop his enourmous head and...

Her train of thoughts was broken by the hysteric screams of Chang " CEDRIC!" and he desperate voice of Mr.Diggory.

Breaking free from the hug she broke threw the crowd and reached the front row. First all she saw was a muddy Potter and something yellow and black under him. Then she slowly, and that is truly slowly, as if her mind just rejected the thought, but even if it did, it came to her.

And she stared and stared, the sound around her becoming more and more distant, and all she could understand in the midle of all the buzzing were hysterical snobs beside her and people saying his name.

Annie sat down on her bed. She looked around, only facing blank walls, or what seemed like blank walls to her. There were no longer pictures of her and Cedric on the table beside her bed, or the paiting he had gotten her one day, in France.

At the end of her bed, you could no longer find a bright yellow wool cover, that she had bought as an excuse so that she could follow him and his friends around Digonal Alley.

She had hidden all the letters he had writen to her, in a small red box, underneath her bed, along with his pictures, the cover, the books he had landed her, anything that would remind her of him.

Her head dropped on the pillow and she simply fell asleep...
