A/N: Okay, I have said it in all my other stories. I am now leaving all my author notes at the end of the chapter, for many reasons. Way to many for me to recognize, but for one…. Sometimes (well most of the times) it takes me more than one day to finish a chapter so what I said in the beginning of the chapter doesn't apply to what's going on in my life right now.

Speaking of my life,

The guy I have been crushing on since last school year is FINALLY going out with me!

Okay, I'm done now.

His name is Patrick.


Like Father, Like Daughter

Chapter 6: Discovery

Summer POV

When I entered the common room, my ears began ringing with cheer and applause. About everyone that was in Gryffindor house was there. I was patted on the back so many times I thought it was going to be so disordered. I saw Jake run up towards me. He had a small box under one arm and two glasses of butterbeer for him and I.

"I would just like the thank Merlin that's it a Gryffindor in this." Jake started looking at the crowd. Everyone cheered even louder.

"So, I have a present for her." Jake said revealing the box. He opened it up and I her some clanking inside. He pulled a small button and handed it to me. It was the Gryffindor lion and written on the badge was…

'Support the Hogwarts Princess!'

I had to smile. I still had a long short on winning the title of Princess but Hogwarts Champion was my title.

"In fact I have on for everyone!" Jake shouted as he picked a hand full of badges and threw them into the crowd.

"You're the best Jake." I said.

"That's what I am here for Princess." Jake teased me as he gave me a bow. But surprisingly, the rest of the Gryffindors bowed with him. I had to laugh to myself, what else was I suppose to do.

Later on that evening I found Andrew sitting in his favorite spot by the fire. He had one of the badges pinned to his shirt and was sipping his butterbeer. I sat down next to him and rested my head on his shoulder.

"I'm proud of you." He whispered in my ear.

"I'm nervous." I admitted. "The first task is only in about a month. And I still have no idea what it is I have to do."

"You mean they didn't give you a clue?" Andrew asked me.

"No, they just said to be there early." I responded.

"Maybe you should talk to your Dad, he probably knows what it is." Andrew replied.

"Do you really think my Dad is going to be that sneaky like that? He's Head Auror, he's not going to throw his position just to see his daughter win." I answered.

"Hey, you never know." Andrew protested.

"Still that was kind of odd that he got over the fact were going out so quickly." I admitted.

"Maybe he realized he was being to hard on you." Andrew said wrapping his arm around me.


Harry POV

"She's dying? From what?" I spoke up.

"I don't know, they don't know. Something is eating her from inside and they don't know what to do." Mr. Weasley said through his tears.

"Mum." Ron whispered. He was pale white. He didn't say another word, but turned and disapparated. Lavender didn't say anything but turned and followed her husband.

"Oh Ron, I have to go you two, take it easy." Mr. Weasley said before he left as well. I fell back on the couch. Hermione automatically sat down next to me. I felt her soft hand touch my shoulder as I just sat there empty.

"Harry?" she spoke up.

My mouth wouldn't move. I was barely breathing at this point.

"Harry." Hermione's voice grew more worried.

Yet my mouth wouldn't move. I didn't even want to say anything anyway. I pulled her hand off me and stood up.

"Harry, what's wrong with you?" Hermione demanded this time. I stopped in my path to the staircase.

"I would rather not talk right now." I managed to say.

"Harry, we need to talk." Hermione said. I didn't turn to look back at her.

"No, we don't." I said as I continued to go up the stairs and slammed the roof door shut.


Summer POV

Weeks went by as school went on and on. Nothing changed besides the fact that practically everyone student at Hogwarts was wearing one of my badges. Andrew and Jake began helping me with new curses and jinxes for the first task. McGonagall even offered to help me if I needed anything. The most I asked for was an empty classroom to practice in because the common room wasn't the best place to practice defending curses. She gave over a spare key to Gibson's classroom, although she wasn't too thrilled about it. She didn't even congratulate me. Everyone knew she had a grudge on me for getting the nominee for Princess instead of her own daughter. Everyone had expected Georgina to get it as well. I mean Professor Gibson and her husband were King and Queen at one point at this school. Georgina showed every gene that she was her mother's daughter. I on the other hand got everything from my Dad.

A week before the tournament I received an owl from my Dad.

"I told you that he would help you Summer." Andrew spoke up as Hedwig landed on the chair next to me in the Gryffindor common room, late at night.

I pulled the letter off her leg and patted her head for the journey. I tore it open eager to read what my father had to say.

Summer,

As a tradition of, well cheating is the history of the Triwizard Tournament; it is my duty to let you know what is coming to you in the first task. But first off, the information I am letting you know, you must not let anyone else hear. After you read this, you'll probably need to burn the letter, even though I have made sure that no one else besides you can read this letter.

On Saturday, you will not only be tested physically, but mentally as well. They're going to ask you questions on basic and also advance spells. How many you get right makes your challenge easier for you. The challenges are as easy from a Cornish pixie to a Dragon. I had to challenge a dragon on my first task, don't worry hun I am sure you will do fine.

Make me proud,

Dad.

"A dragon?" You could easily tell there was worry in Andrew's voice.

"Andrew, the only way possible for me to face a dragon is if I don't answer a single question right. And like that is going to happen. You are talking to one of the few people who received an 'O' in her O.W.L.'s last year in Defense Against the Dark Arts." I explained.

"Yeah but your Dad had to battle an dragon. And you have his gene's, what if you end up facing one too?" Andrew asked.

"Are you trying to say I can't answer anything?" I snapped.

"But you're forgetting something, you have a little bit of your mother in you. Maybe that part can come out of you while your being questioned." Jake pointed out.

"Let's hope it does."


Okay, I know it is a small chapter but I had to put this in. I mean I have been so busy over the past weeks. I am going to do this new thing where I start leaving a bit of my personal; well it's not really personal, life at the end of my chapter.

First, I have to shout out to the reviewers.

Slytherinfairy: Wow, liking and loving a story at the same time. Is that even possible?

Callista Rose: Hey, who says I am killing her? She's dying. Who's to say that she won't make some miraculous recovery?

I'm not telling: You know, if I had a nickel every time someone said they had the same name from some character in one of my stories, I would probably not be writing anymore.

HelloKitty14: Mr. Brightside? Common babe, your forgetting All These Things That I've Done and Change Your Mind, although not a lot of people like that one. I love it when Brandon goes "Were all the same, and Love is Blind. The sun is gone, before it shines." It gives me the chills every time I hear it. I love it so much, maybe as much as my artist.

Talon05: and more? And more?

Degrassirox: I shall never stop writing Harry Potter fanfiction as long as I have a review to back me up. But I liked that whole stalker analogy thing. That was pretty cool. In a creepy way I guess.

Lucyrocks73: Like I have said before, who says I am killing her. She's really old anyways. Okay, maybe I was being a bit brutal at that point but hey, what can I say, something tragic HAS to happen in the magical world of Harry Potter.

Padfoorrules3: Um…. Okay? Thank you?

Skyfire2549: band camp?…. shudders worst thing you can do during the summer. AND because my instructor is INSANE, I have to be after school on Tuesday's and Thursday's for 3 hours. Crazy man. I don't even have time to change out of my good school clothes.

Rodrigo: It was a good and a great chapter. How fortunate.

FairyWings101: Summer is an excellent person now isn't she? But I can't rag on you anymore because of this writer's block I had. Ok, I will explain more in a minute.

Attention all my lovely and fabulous reviewers. I have a very important announcement. I am going to explain to you all how I got my writer's block. But you have to read the whole story. It was the second week of Band Camp on Monday and my crush of MONTHS comes up to me and we start talking. I mean we were pretty good friends at the time, but this is how it all goes down.

Patrick: I need your opinion on something, oh wise and brilliant person.

Holly (me): laughs a little Okay what?

Patrick: Well I have to know, because all girls have a different opinion on this. I REALLY like this girl but I don't know exactly how to ask her out. I was thinking about slipping her a note but thought that would be kind of lame. So any suggestions?

Holly: Well I think you should just tell her how you feel. I mean if you really like her, you shouldn't keep it bottled in any longer and just tell her.

Patrick: Thanks Holly.

Holly: So, might I ask who the lucky lady is?

Patrick: You.

I pretty much fainted. I had been crushing on Patrick since like June. And I hadn't seen him all summer and he just asks me out like right there and then.

I am in love city! Tomorrow's our one-month so I am pretty excited about that.

Best Wishes!

Holly
