Chapter 8- The Contest Winners
Hermione's POV
I walk down to the great hall the next morning alone yet excited for many reasons. When I get to the Great Hall only a couple students are milling about among tables, many are excited to hear who the contest winners are. I get to the table and sit down next to Ginny, remembering the kiss from the night before. "Good Morning! Today we will find out the winners of the contest! We will choose 2 players from each school!" Professor McGonagall says. Bill then brings over the goblet of fire. The fire turns from blue to red and the names fly out. "The Beauxbatons winners are, Gabrielle Delacour and Amèlie Marçelle. The Durmstrangs winners are Krasimir Vastil and Ivan Petir. Lastly, the Hogwarts winners are Marietta Edgecombe and Draco Malfoy." There where gasps around the room and I quickly look at Draco. 'Draco could get HURT!' I think to myself, my eyes wide with worry. Before any other thoughts get the chance to cross my mind, everything fades away as everything turns into nothingness.
Draco's POV
"I am in the competition!" I say, excited. I didn't expect me to win. There are a lot more people that should've been picked than ME. I stare at Professor McGonagall in awe until I feel someones eyes looking at me. My gaze then goes from Professor McGonagall to Hermione. At least, I try to look at her. I look over in time to see her body slump as she blacks out. My whole brain screams at me to go to her, but I don't. Instead I walk up to Professor McGonagall like the other winners. "Follow me." She says and we follow her, I more slowly than the rest. We take a seat in the chairs around the fire and Professor McGonagall starts to tell us what is going to happen, " This contest isn't going to be as dangerous as the last one. There will only be two tasks and on the second task, in order to win you must get the Memento cup. Your first instructions will come after the Memento ball. That is all, you may go." After we all leave the room, I walk slowly back to my common room, unable to eat anymore after all the nights events. When I get to Professor Snape's portrait I say "Sempre" quietly. He lets me in with a sad smile, knowing that he shouldn't ask what happened until the time is right. When I get in to the common room I see brown bushy hair flying at me. "Draco!" Hermione says while crying. I hold her close, not wanting to let her go. I wipe away her tears and lead her to the couch where we both sit. I stay with her until she falls asleep.

Is it sad that I just realized what book Marietta is in? lol. Well, looks like I have to pay attention to details more often.
