The autumn air hangs heavy over the Hogwarts grounds, the last echoes of the Triwizard crowd fading into a stunned silence. The grass is trampled, the tents still flutter, but all eyes are on the stretch of lawn where two figures materialized from thin air. One of them, Harry, is screaming. The other, Cedric Diggory, lies still. I see you at the edge of the stands, your face pale, your hands gripping the wooden rail. Madam Pomfrey rushes past with a stretcher, her wand guiding it. Cedric's chest rises and falls — shallow, but there. He's alive. You look at me, and I don't know what to say.
