Draco's Potter Proof Guide On How To Be a Slytherin

Step Thirty-Four

Step Thirty-Four: One must support Cedric Diggory during the Triwizard Tournament.

Albus jabbed Scorpius in the side with his sharp elbow good naturedly as Rose entered the room; when he had first found out that his friend fancied his cousin, to say he was disturbed would very much be an understatement but he had decided to be the 'model' friend for once and just tease him instead. "There she is, in all her Weasley glory."

He grabbed the book, burying his pointed features deeply into the pages, he could feel his face burning from where he and Al were sat at the Gryffindor table (it had taken a lot of persuading to get a snake in with the lions) in the hall one September morning. Since Albus had found out about...it...his feelings, he was sure, had only increased and become even more noticeable but what concerned him the most was the fact the Zabini also knew. And as far as he knew, she hadn't said a single thing to anybody. Strange; very strange.

"Who's Cedric Diggory?"

"Oh, Scor, don't change the subject..naw, Rosie just left, probably because she saw your ugly mug!" Al chuckled, ruffling his peer's hair.

"Cedric Diggory took part in the Triwizard Tournament when Harry Potter was at school. Apparently he was killed during the final task and Lord Voldemort was there. Oh, and your dad was too, Potter." a third year boy said quickly, "Diggory was a Hufflepuff, I think. Very sad."

"Oh. Nice." Scorpius muttered, wondering why Rose had left so suddenly.

Maybe he'd have to go and find her...
