It was now time to board the train neither Amber or Tim received the honour of prefect that honour went to the raven-haired girl for Hufflepuff and Clive for Slytherin.
"I'm kind of glad that I didn't get prefect, it might be too much responsibility," Amber said, sitting down in their usual compartment.
Tim nodded and sat down next to her. He put his arm around her and they sat in their regular position for the rest of the journey. Once they arrived at Hogsmeade Station they caught their usual carriage. Once they arrived at Hogwarts, they went to their respective tables. Then at the end of the feast, Dumbledore announced they would be hosting the Triwizard tournament this year. There was excited chatter as the students walked out of the Great Hall.
It was the next morning, Amber woke up and got dressed. She finished getting dressed and left the dorm and crawled out of the common room.
"Morning, Amber," Tim smiled at her.
"Morning."
He put his arm around her as they started walking to the Great Hall. Once in the Great Hall, they went their separate ways. McGonagall passed out the timetables. They had Defence with the Ravenclaws.
It was the night of the arrival of the two other schools competing in the Triwizard Tournament, which just so happened to be the day before Halloween.
"Please, welcome the lovely ladies of Beauxbatons Academy," announced the Headmaster when the Feast ended.
The girls floated in and most of the guys, led by none other than Ron Weasley, were staring at their behinds. Then, Durmstrang also marched in. She made eye contact with Tim as a stocky sallow skinned guy sat next to him.
"Blimey, it's him!" she heard the youngest Weasley boy exclaim from across the Great Hall.
After the feast, Amber caught up with Tim
"Who is that?" she asked.
"Viktor Krum, the seeker on the Bulgarian National Team, apparently."
Amber nodded after that brief interaction the two friends separated.
It was a couple days later, the two friends were in the Hospital Wing getting a refill for Tim's epi pen. Although, he never used it. It had expired. Amber noticed Lee and the twins. She saw the twin redheads had identical long white beards. She couldn't help but chuckle.
"What are you laughing at?" Tim asked.
She gestured over to the red headed twins with the long white beards and Tim started laughing.
"What happened to them?" Amber asked Lee.
"Those two they tried to enter the Triwizard Tournament but Dumbledore put an age line on the Cup. So, that's why I'm here."
Amber nodded.
"I'll see you later, Amber," Tim said.
"Okay, bye Tim."
The brunette left the hospital wing and Amber walked over to the three older boys.
"So, have you told Tim how you feel about him?"
Amber shook her head and said. "No, I haven't."
"Are you going to tell him?"
Amber nodded.
It was now time for the picking of the champions, which was a week after the Halloween Feast.
"Mr. Viktor Krum!" Dumbledore exclaimed, after snatching the first piece of paper.
There was a round of applause as he stood up and walked towards the champion's room.
"Miss Fleur Delacour," Dumbledore continued.
A petite blonde girl got up from the Ravenclaw table and joined Viktor in the back room.
Amber couldn't help but notice the Weasley twins and Lee staring at her. She couldn't help but wonder.
What was so special about her?
"Mr. Cedric Diggory," the Headmaster said finally.
Cedric stood up from the Hufflepuff table. After he bid his goodbyes to his housemates, unexpectedly, another piece of paper bursted out of the Goblet of Fire.
"Mr. Harry Potter," Dumbledore exclaimed in a rather grave tone.
There was complete silence. Harry was barely fourteen, how could that have happened?
The first Hogsmeade weekend came and went a few weeks later. The two friends spent most of the trip together.
It was now time for the first task which was apparently dragons, according to rumours, at least. Amber was in the stands with Tim.
"This is very dangerous," Amber said.
"It is."
First was Cedric who was facing a Swedish Short-Snout. Next was Fleur who was facing a Common Welsh Green. Next was Viktor and then Harry was facing a Hungarian Horntail. He used his Quidditch skills to retrieve the egg.
There was an announcement of the Yule Ball a few days later, and the rumours about who asked who started almost instantly.
The Hufflepuffs were learning to dance after the announcements. The class was held together with the Slytherins. She was stuck dancing with Clive. This couldn't end any quicker.
It was now after the dancing lesson Tim was back in the Slytherin dorm room. He's never gotten along with his two roommates for obvious reasons.
"Selwyn, your friend is really developing well if you know what I mean," Clive said, lewdly.
Tim glared at him.
"Did you see her breasts?" his other roommate Luke asked.
Clive waved him off. "I'm more of an arse guy, I was tempted to touch it while we were dancing this afternoon. If she wasn't a mudblood, I'd be all over her."
Tim finally blew up and shouted. "Don't dare talk about Amber like that! She's the sweetest and understanding girl I have ever met. She's much more than a pretty face."
There was no response from his roommates. Tim decided to sleep in the common room.
