Chapter 6 – Confrontations
"Did you put your name into the Goblet of Fire?" Dumbledore asked me as soon as we entered his office.
I just crossed my arms over my chest, "No." I answered innocently.
"Did you ask one of the older kids to do it for you?" Dumbledore asked.
"Perhaps one of the boys," Snape piped in.
I smirked, he knew me too well. "No," I replied still smirking.
Dumbledore then explained the dangers to me. The other teachers were against me participating but Snape said that there was no going back now and I would have to compete. After another hour of Dumbledore talking to me and the other chosen champions I finally headed back to the common room.
When I got to the common room there were quite a few people in there talking amongst each other. As soon as I walked in everyone went silent and turned to look at me.
"What?" I asked annoyed with the staring.
"How'd you do it?" a girl to my right asked me.
"Do what?" I asked innocently, knowing exactly what she was referring to, as I walked towards the stairs that led to the girls dorms.
"Put your name in the goblet?" another boy asked.
Just as I reached the entrance of the stairs I turned around smirking at the people in front of me.
"That's confidential information that I'm afraid I can't release," I said and winked before turning around and heading up to my room.
The next morning I made my way down to the great hall earlier than usual. I was sporting blue highlights today. As I made my way to the hall I bumped into Harry.
"Hey," I said smiling at him and we walked together.
"Izzy, how did your name get called out of the goblet?" he asked me concerned.
"I dunno," I shrugged.
"Do you have any clue how you're going to do this?" he asked.
"Not really," I said pretty much ignoring him.
"You know this is gonna be dangerous," he said.
"I know," I said nonchalantly. "What do you think's gonna be for breakfast?" I asked genuinely curious.
"Bella, I don't think you realise how serious this is!" Harry said pulling me to a stop just outside the great hall.
"Don't call me Bella," I said with venom lacing my voice as I glared at him.
"Alright, Izzy," he said, "I just think you should be taking this more seriously. You know people die in this competition."
"I know," I replied. "And so what if I die? It's not like I have anything to live for." I said crossing my arms and looking away from Harry.
"Nothing to live for?" he repeated angrily. "What about for our parents who died so that we could live long happy lives."
My eyes snapped to meet Harry's. He was glaring at me and I could see the tears just threatening to spill.
"They didn't die for you to throw your life away," Harry said looking at me straight in the eyes.
"Shut up!" I finally said. "Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!" I yelled and stomped off into the hall.
A few people turned to look at us, mostly me, after my little outburst. I sat down at the Slytherin table and glared daggers at Harry as he walked in. For the entire duration of breakfast I was glaring daggers at Harry. I didn't even touch any food.
After school I sat in the common room trying to figure out what the first challenge could be. Dumbledore had given us no clues and it was actually starting to make me anxious. After several hours I couldn't take it anymore so I left the common room and found a cute Hufflepuff to make out with until dinner.
What did you think? Too amazing? A total fail? REVIEW!
