Harry crossed the Great Hall he could feel everyone watching him as he did so. How did his name get into the goblet? He hadn't put it there.

He passed the staff table and crossed into the room where the other champions were waiting.

Cedric Diggory was waiting by the fire in the room with his hands folded behind his back. He gave Harry a look of questioning and returned his gaze to the fire, a stern look upon his face.

Fleur Delacour looked up at Harry

"What is it?" she asked. "Do zey want us back in ze Hall?"

Harry looked at his feet and noticed Cedric was now staring at him.

Ludo Bagman entered the room and told the others how Harry had been selected as a champion too – the fourth champion.

The other champions reacted. Viktor Krum straightened up and surveyed Harry. Cedric looked from Mr. Bagman to Harry a few times and ended up staring at Harry, unsure what to think. Fleur turned to Mr. Bagman, "Oh, vairy funny, Meester Bagman."

Dumbledore and the other headmasters talked with Mr. Bagman and among themselves, saying that Harry had obviously broken one of the rules and thought it was unfair Hogwarts was allowed two champions.

Harry didn't know what to think so his mind wandered. He was much younger than the other champions, would he be able to compete at their level. They all looked so much more mature than he did. He felt very intimidated.

Cedric took off his Hufflepuff robe so he was wearing blue jeans with his white dress shirt tucked in; he loosened his tie. Harry had felt close to Cedric ever since the Quidditch World Cup when Cedric had put himself between Harry and a death eater. He noticed Cedric looked a little uncomfortable.

Dumbledore noticed the champions were still in the room and checked his watch. His eyes widened.

"You all are free to go," Dumbledore told them motioning toward the door, "I didn't realize it was this late," he said before turning back to Madam Maxime.

Fleur and Krum sped from the room while Harry and Cedric walked behind them. Cedric walked through the doorway first and Harry looked down as he walked behind him.

Even though Harry was looking at the floor, Harry caught of a glimpse of Cedric's ass. He didn't mean to look at it, but Cedric's pants were form fitting and it just happened to be right in front of him. Harry was becoming jealous of Cedric. He seemed to be flawless.

Harry quickly shook his head and closed his eyes. He looked up again and Cedric had put a gap between himself and Harry. He sped up to catch up with Cedric and tugged at his robe when he was beside him.

"I didn't put my name in that cup, you know that don't you?"

"I don't know," started Cedric, "but I don't know who would've done it for you either. The Weasley twins couldn't have done it; their names got spit back out."

"Listen Cedric," started Harry before moving himself straight in front of Cedric, "I didn't do it."

Cedric looked him in the eyes.

"Promise?"

"I promise."

"Okay," Cedric said, "I believe you."

"You do?"

"Well, if you can look me in the eye and tell me that you didn't do, I believe you."

Cedric began walking again and Harry fell into place beside him as they walked. He noticed that Cedric had a certain confidence about him. His robe was still folded neatly over his left arm.

"Cedric, I really didn't mean to take away the glory that's supposed to come with this competition. If my name hadn't been drawn, I'd be right with everyone else from Hogwarts supporting you."

"I know," said Cedric, he put his left hand on Harry's shoulder.

A familiar and unwelcome voice came to Harry's ear next, "well, well, well, if it isn't the perfect couple. Potty and the pretty boy." Malfoy stepped out of the shadows and into the candle light in the main hall.

"Shut up, Malfoy. Don't you have to go whining to you Daddy?"

Malfoy snarled and pulled out his wand; "Serpen…"

Malfoy never got to finish his spell though.

"Expelliarmus," said Cedric almost lazily; Malfoy's wand went soaring through the air. "Accio wand," continued Cedric and Malfoy's wand was in Cedric's hand.

"Did your dad tell about our little meeting at the Quidditch World Cup?" asked Harry; he was glad he could insult Malfoy for once.

Harry and Cedric began laughing; Malfoy began walking toward the stairs that lead to the dungeon with a frown upon his face. Harry smiled.

"Malfoy, you forgot something," said Cedric, and he threw Malfoy's wand down the steps. He and Harry continued to laugh.

"Good luck with the first task," said Cedric as he turned and walked in the direction of the Hufflepuff common room.

"You too," replied Harry, a little more self-conscious about the way he walked than he should have been. Harry turned and looked over his shoulder to find Cedric watching him.

He raised his hand and waved a little awkwardly; he hoped Cedric hadn't noticed. He walked back up to the Gryffindor common room still thinking about what was to come.
