Chapter 54:The First Task
"Oh my God!Harry you know what your supposed to do right?Oh my if you die?"
"Hermione let us not dwell on that happy matter."I nearly had to yell over her mutterings.
"Right I'm sorry,oh Harry you're supposed to be at the pitch by now!You don't want to be late!"Hermione ran out of the common room,not relising that Harry was walking at normal pace with me.
"You ok?"I turned to grabbed my hand and gave it a squeeze.
"I will be women worry to much."He shook his head.I noticed his hand was still holding mine.I tried not to think about it.
"You are fighting a dragon..but then again you do that every day."He laughed at my means dragon in Latin in case your were wondering!
"And this is why I am your friend,you can make any situation a joke!"He looked up at my face.
He grabbed my other hand so that I was facing him.I looked up at him,he was a good three inches taller then me,why didn't I notice that before?Oh I know we have never been this close before,wait why is he bending down?He leaned down and took my chin in one of his turned my head up so that I was looking up at bent down,but before he could close the gap I felt wave upon wave of jealousy.
"Potter!Chickening out?"I heard Draco drawl.I closed my eyes and tried to hide behind Harry,but Draco grabbed my hand out of Harry's and pushed me behind him,where Blaise had to catch me because of the force with which Draco had pushed me .
Harry looked around Draco to make sure I was ok.I nodded then waved him was thinking about punching Harry,and umm,well Harry is about to face a real dragon so...
Harry hurried away,I waved to him and signed good luck,which he had smiled then walked away.
"What were,are,you thinking?It's POTTER!"Draco threw his hands in the air.
"I am perfectly in my rights to snog Harry Potter!"I put my hands in my hips.
"Since when?"He matched my pose.
"Since I was born,your father can't control who I go out with!"I rolled my eyes.
"You...Are...Going...Out...With...Potter!"Draco had his hand balled up into fists.
"No,but that doesn't mean I can't!He's nice and sweet and doesn't care who I work for,or my blood status."I put emphisis on the last the fight Draco and I had had a few years back.
"I told you I was sorry,and I am nice to you,and I don't care that you work for my father!"
"Then why do you always bring it up?And you really disprove the being nice!" Draco looked down.
"I don't like it."He looked upset.
"Draco likes hamsters-"I smirked.
"Don't bring that up!"He looked more then unhappy.
"Draco,come off it mate,just leave her alone."Blaise nodded to me,then walked followed him without another word.
I had no choice but to follow them,as they were headed to the same place I was.
"Where's Hermione?"I looked at Ron,who had a 'support Cederic Diggory' badge..boys and their stupid fights!Come to think of it girls have stupid fights too,but they are legit..wait is that possible?DRACO!
'Not talking to you.'
'What!And I was just asking a simple question.'
'That I am not going to answer.'
'But,Draco,I'm confuzzled.' He looked over at me from a few rows away.I pouted.
'Nope.' He smirked.
'Jerk!'
'I didn't try to kiss you..'He suddenly looked upset,' Katie ,Why did you make me bring it up?'
'You brought it up,and at least I wouldn't mind hearing Harry's thoughts,at least they are civil!'I glared at him.'And why do you care if he kisses me?'
'Because that is a feeling I don't want to have to endure.' Fleur was on the field,but only Beauxbatons students cared.
'Wait,what?'
'Well,we feel everything else the same...' He looked at me,I raised an eyebrow.
'That would explain the jealousy I feel when you see me around a guy.' I smirked.
'Katherine,It's not jealousy..it's anger.'Oooh a dipper hole to dig.
'Why are you angry when you see me with a guy?'
'Why do you care?'
'Because Draco,It's about MWE!'I used a baby voice.
'Look,Harry...DIE DIE GET HIM DRAGON!'
"GO HARRY GO HARRY BEAT THE BLOODY DRAGON!'' Ron yelled. Beside me Hermione, I notcied had just got back.
We looked at each other for a moment,then started cheering to.
Harry's task was a eventful Dragon breaking free at one point,chasing Harry half way across the He got the egg and was awarded full marks..in so many words HE WON!
"The dragon Didn't eat him!"Draco huffed from behind me.I rolled my eyes.
"We get a party!"I said in a sing-song stuck his tongue out at me,but I just smiled and waved.
"How do you do that?" Ron looked at me in anstonishment.
"Just smile and wave boys,smile and wave."I quoted Madagascar. Only Hermione got the joke...Oh well.
"Oook well come on,Dean said he got some firewhiskey."
"RON!"Hermione and I shouted at the same time.
"What?"He looked innocent..ya about as innocent as Fred and George when the were two days old!
"Nevermind.."We shook our heads.I grabbed a butterbeer,which I then mixed with cream soda..yum.
"You want me to open this?"Harry was on Fred and Goerges shoulders,holding the golden egg.
Everyone opened loud shrieking nose was so violent that it made the twins drop Harry.I reached up and covered my looked around at us like we were crazy.I signed,"Loud noise,painful in the ears."She nodded,but still stood Harry closed it people stared at only shrugged and said,"Deaf,it does come in handy."
