FF: Victor krum & Hermione!!

Victor Krum took a deep breath and crossed that age line drawn by Dumbledore. As he crossed the age line successfully without growing a beard, there were combined cheers from Durmstrang and Hogwarts students. he looked at the slip in his hand....it said, " Victor Krum, Durmstrang." he dropped the slip into the goblet as a renewed cheer went up. he looked around at the Hogwarts students gathered in the great hall. Different faces with the same expression, all ogling and goggling at him as if he was some really unique circus animal.

He shook his head irritated, and that was when he saw her.

Long, bushy hair, eyes twinkling in the sunlight, perfect, full lips, he felt that it would be impossible to miss her face. She was the only one not staring at him because he was a famous quidditch player; she was staring at him, her perfect eyebrows raised, in disbelief. Her expression definitely mirrored his thoughts. he knew more than half of the people staring at him wouldn't even look at him twice hadn't he been playing for Bulgaria.

he didn't realize that he had been staring at her for so long, that people were starting to mutter around him. His friend, Charlie Ullin, steeped swiftly over the age line, grabbed his elbow, and quickly dropping his name slip into the goblet, steered him away.

He took him to the freezing courtyard and demanded, "what is up with you?"

Victor just shook his head, trying to clear his jumbled up thoughts. He just couldn't forget her face. He simply had to talk to her. He shook of his friend and set out for a long walk in the castle grounds. Walking had always helped him calm down when he was restless.

Meanwhile, Hermione sat in her dormitory, reading "A History of magic" by Bathilda Bagshot. She had just finished reading a chapter on Godric's Hollow and was surprised when she found out that Godric Gryffindor was from Godric's Hollow.

She couldn't wait to inform Harry. She rushed to the crowded common room and searched for Harry and Ron. She went near them but stopped abruptly when she realized that they were discussing Quidditch.

Eeww. Quidditch.

"boys!" she muttered angrily to herself and dashed upstairs, back to her dormitory, where she settled her self in bed to continue reading.
