'Knock...knock...knock'

The raven haired boy started to slowly open his eyes. He lifted his head from the book but found his face somewhat stuck to the side of the page. He realized that he must have fallen asleep when he was looking for a solution to be able to breathe under water.

"Come on Harry, your going to be late to the task." Ron's voice said from the other side of the door.

Harry quickly sat up and looked around the room for his blond companion. 'Must be down at breakfast already, but why didn't he wake me up first' Harry thought to himself as he stood up from his chair and stretched. He walked over to the door and let the red head in. Ron came into the room renting on his and asking him why he wasn't ready.

"Hey do you know where Draco is?" Harry asked the red head as he changed his robes.

The red head shrugged his shoulders. "No, clue" But Hermione is waiting for us down at the bottom of the stairs." Ron said. "So did you figure out what you need to be able to breath under water?" The red head added following Harry out of the room.

Harry looked over his shoulder and replied "No" and watched as Ron's mouth dropped open.

"You know that Hermione is going to kill you right?" Ron stated.

The dark haired boy just shrugged shoulders and kept walking down the hallway. Just before they reached the staircase both boys heard a loud 'Crack' and quickly turned around.

"What are you doing here Dobby?" Harry asked the house elf quizzically.

""Dobby wants to bring Master Potter a gift so he can breathe underwater sir." The large eyed elf replied.

"Harry watched as Dobby pulled out a green glob of something out of his pocket and felt his stomach churn at the glob.

"What is it?" Harry asked

"Gillyweed." Dobby replied.

"Are you sure this stuff will work?" Harry asked.

"Yes."

"Harry" Ron snapped. "You don't have time to play twenty questions; you should have been down at the lake twenty minutes ago. Now you only have about ten minutes before the competition starts."

Harry's eyes shot open and he quickly reached and grabbed the blob out of Dobby's hand.

"Thanks Dobby." Harry said as he began running down the stair and was quickly followed by the red headed Weasley.

"Harry is very welcome sir." Dobby squeaked jumping up and down before disappearing.

"Both Harry and Ron dashed down the stairs. Whey they reached the Entrance Hall Hermione joined them in running out to the lake. Hermione informed them they only had about five minutes left. The trio could see the whole student body and staff members standing around the lake. As they made it closer to the sore Harry could hear Bagman's voice announce to the Champions that they only had one hour to retrieve their lost item from the bottom of the lake. Once Harry saw the Champions standing on a platform he heard a loud 'Bang' and saw the Fleur, and Viktor jump into the water, and saw Cedric look over his shoulder.

"Oh, no." Harry mumbled under his breath. "They already started"

Harry watched that Cedric still hadn't jumped into the water. When he was close to the platform Ron left his side to go to the Gryffindor's and he quickly threw off his robes. When he was closer to the platform Cedric still hadn't jumped into the water, Harry quickly slipped off his shirt which revealed his nicely toned body from playing Quidditch. Harry got quite a few whistles from the crowed from both guys and girls. When he finally reached the platform he slipped off his shoes and socks and unbuttoned his pants. When his pants were finally he received another round of gasps which made him turn a nice deep crimson color. He felt Cedric place his hand on his shoulder.

"Did you get the gillyweed?" The older boy asked.

Harry nodded his head yes. "Thanks." he said under his breath.

Cedric leaned towards Harry and whispered into his hear. "Remember, I would do anything for you." Cedric slowly pulled back and placed a light kiss on the dark haired cheek and ran and dived into the water leaving a stunned Harry Potter on the bank. Harry watched Professor McGonagall hurry towards him.

"Potter, are you going to go?" His head of house asked. "You only have forty five minutes left."

Harry quickly snapped out of his mind and threw the glob of green into his mouth. He quickly swallowed not wanting to taste the slime and jumped into the water. He felt the cold water stab his water like knives, but quickly began swimming downward. A moment later he felt something prickling at the side of his neck. He felt where the slight pain was and felt that he now had gills and that he could breath. He looked at his hands and feet which also turned and became webbed. He soon started to propel himself through the water with ease. Once he reached the bottom of the lake he started to swim in a straight direction forward. After about ten minutes he came upon some long weeds, he saw something shoot out of the grass and saw that it was a grindylow. He quickly took out his wand and muttered a spell at it but nothing happened. He then just flicked his wand at it and sent steaming bubbles which tagged the creature in the face. Harry quickly resumed his swimming and soon afterward came upon a village. He saw things swimming around the place and realized that they must be the merepeople. When he reached what must have been the center of the town he saw four people still tied to giant rocks. He looked around and saw an angelic looking blond boy tied and in a deep sleep. Harry quickly swam over to the boy and took out his wand. He shot the bindings of the boy. He was about to swim away from the place but he felt a hand placed on his shoulder. The dark haired boy quickly shot around and looked into beautiful gray eyes. The older boy leaned closer to Harry face. Harry felt something pass around his face as he went into the air bubble that surrounded Cedric's face, he felt Cedric's lips lightly brush across his own which sent a fiery sensation through his body. Harry lightly place his hands on the older boys side and slowly made his way down the body, but when he reached Cedric's side the older boy winced in pain. Both boys pulled back and Harry mouthed sorry to Cedric who nodded and kissed him once more lightly on the lips before leaving to retrieve his hostage. Harry quickly recovered from the kiss and grabbed Draco by the arm and started to swim back towards the surface. As he neared the surface he felt his body no being able to breathe as easily. Slowly Harry started to change back from his underwater state. He desperately started to swim faster until he reached the surface. When he and Draco broke the water Harry took in a deep breath of air and noticed that Draco had woken up from his sleep. They made their way to the platform then were helped out and were quickly covered with towels by Madame Pomfrey. Harry turned back to the lake and saw Cedric emerge closely followed by Fleur, then Krum. When Cedric was closer to the platform he winked at Harry and the younger boy gave him a slight smile back before turning back toward the blond boy next to him.

"You ok Draco." Harry asked.

The blond boy nodded his head and wrapped his arms around Harry's neck and pulled him into a deep kiss. Both boys fought for domination in the battle of their tongues. All of the people around them were either saying "awwww how cute" or giggling. When the two broke apart both of their lips were swollen and faces flushed.

"Thanks" Draco whispered.

"Any day" Harry replied pulling the shivering blond into his arms.

AN: Hey, Well now that chapter is done we get to go onto the fun stuff. Well this story is slowly making its end. But there will be one final plot twist to this story, which could end up making this story have a sequel (not really sure though), but this plot twist is going to be really sad. Well please review and let me know what you think.
