Harry's fourth year at Hogwarts is the hardest yet. He's thrown in the Triwizard Tournament and has feelings for the three other champions.
- First comes the meet-cute crush on Cedric at the Quidditch game. Quickly followed by the celebrity crush on Viktor.
- He tries to forget, but Durmstang arrives at Hogwarts and Viktor is there all strong and masculine!
- Oh wow, Fleur from Beauxbatons is stunning and impressive!
- Cedric put his name in the cup he is so brave and dreamy!
- Harry's favorites get picked by the cup! No surprise there!
- Harry gets picked by the cup! Oh no, that's a bad surprise!
- Harry feels overwhelmed surrounded by the three gorgeous chapions. They don't seem impressed by him.
- As it should. After all, Harry is just an awkward kid to them. A cheating one too! At least he can soak up a bit of time with them to feed his fantasies!
- Like imagining Viktor and him having a broomstick date. Or Fleur and him going at Madame Puddifoot's. Or a study date with Cedric.
- The fantasies help him get through the rough times of being mocked and despised by the other students.
- Harry tells Cedric about the first task's dragons! He thinks he notices Cedric smiling softly at him from afar more often after that, but it must be because of his overactive imagination.
- Harry notices Victor in the library more often after the first task. He knows he's not there for him, but he can't help fantasize that he is.
- When McGonagall tells Harry champions can't go to the Yule Ball together as a couple, he wonders why she even needs to tell him, as if Fleur (or Cedrix, or Viktor) would accept to go with him!
- When he tells her as much (minus mentions of Cedric and Victor), she deadpans for a good minute, sighs and tells him to go find himself a dance partner.
- Rude.
- Cho's pretty and he definitely could fall for her were he not dealing with all of his confusing emotions for the other champions so he asks her for the dance. He's disappointed to find out Cedric asked her.
- At least now he knows he has absolutely no chance with Cedric because Cho and him are so different!
- He's a little bit heartbroken. He ends up asking Parvati at the last minute.
- The Yule Ball rips his heart out and he hates it. Cho and Cedric look so good together! And Viktor is with Hermione, so that explains why he was at the library so much! Fleur looks divine next to Roger. Harry feels small and insignificant.
- Cedric tells Harry to go take a bath with his egg. Harry manages to stop himself from fantasizing about a taken man and him together naked in a bath... But it was hard!
- Harry saves Gabrielle in the second task. He can't help it! She's Fleur's sister, her most important person, and he can't leave her there alone in a dangerous scary place!
- The heartfelt thanks and hug he gets from Fleur after that make it all worth it. More feed for his fantasies.
- McGonagall mutters about how the third task can't be about affection again or else it will be a tea party. He has no clue what she's talking about. Also, rude!
- Things get better and worse for Harry between the second and third task:
- Better because the three other chapions come over to talk to him often. They spend a lot more time together doing things that look strangely a lot like his fantasies. Flying with Cedric, tea with Viktor, studying with Fleur all happen regularly!
- Worse because the three of them are so out of his league and he can't let himself believe he has a chance! Even if each smile they give him makes his stomach flop, every small touches makes him full-body shiver, every compliment makes him swoon.
- The third task is a nightmare.
- When he hears Fleur scream, Harry can't help himself, he goes to help her. He knows she is stronger and smarter than him, but he really likes her and can't imagine her being hurt!
- He finds Fleur who is unconscious when he hears Cedric scream! It takes him a second to shoot red sparks over Fleur and dash towards where Cedric's screams are coming from.
- Cedric is being hurt by Viktor. It makes no sense because Viktor is quite gentle under his tough exterior. A quick removal of his wand and a binding later, Harry shoots the red sparks again.
- Cedric wants to continue to look for the Triwizard cup. Harry pleads with him to wait for Dumbledore. Viktor was clearly imperioused so there is something nefarious going on!
- That doesn't convince Cedric, so Harry tells him he likes him and wants him to stay safe.
- Noticing even in the dark just how much Cedric is blushing of what has to be anger from that, he adds that he cares for all of them.
- Cedric's blush seems to disappear. Crisis averted!
- When Moody arrives and doesn't give a second glance to Viktor, Harry starts to feel worried.
- He gets very worried when Moody tells him he will bring back Viktor and Cedric safely to the start and Harry has to go find the cup.
- Harry was so busy with his bi awakening that whole school year he didn't notice all the very big red flags Moody was raising. Oops!
- Harry manages to compromise with Moody that he will get back to looking for the cup as soon as he returns Cedric and Viktor to the start and lets them both get looked up.
- After Moody leaves, Harry half-asses his seach of the cup.
- When he unfortunately finds it, he just sits in the bush in wait.
- Moody arrives many hours later, fuming. He notices Harry immediately thanks to his eye. Stupid eye.
- "wHaT dO yOu MeAn I hAvE tO pIcK tHe CuP?"
- Yep, Moody wasn't to be trusted. Crucio hurts like a bitch.
- He doesn't so much as pick the cup as gets thrown on it. He's disoriented from the teleportation. Not surprised by it, though.
- Demon Baby Voldemort keeps telling Wormtail to hurry with his ceremony.
- Voldemort comes back. It sucks.
- But Harry wasted so much time the ceremony ended seconds after daybreak which means he's not back at full strength like expected. Still sucks, but could have been worse.
- The Death Eaters aren't as scary when the sun is shining brightly and the sky is shades of pinks, blues and gold. Still creepy, but also ridiculous.
- Harry's mom and dad look lovely shining in the rays of light. He thinks this is a good last memory of them.
- He returns to Hogwarts bloodied but alive and is quickly stuck under a dogpile.
- Fleur kisses his cheeks and talks quickly about how stupidly brave he is, Cedric holds his hurt arm and admonishes him about how if he truly was worried for them then he should take better care of himself, while Viktor holds on tight to his waist and rotates between saying how sorry he is for hurting them and thanking Harry for believing in his innocence.
- Moody tries to get Harry's attention but fails to do so before he transforms back into Crouch Jr.
- Fudge sucks and is a coward. Voldemort is back and war is approaching. The dark times are starting again. But the ministry chooses to refuse to accept the facts.
- But Harry feels hopeful. Because sure, his worst nightmare came true that morning, but his wildest dreams did too. The hugs and kisses were very nice and he will never forget them in all of his life.
- McGonagall sends Harry and "his girlfriend and boyfriends" to the infirmary. Harry corrects her that they're not dating. The other three champions look crestfallen after he says that. McGonagall just deadpans for a minute and then sighs, which is so rud...
- Oh! Oooooh. Harry gets it now. Okay, he deserved that. He turns to the three others who try, and fail, to look unbothered and asks them if they would accept to go out with him.
- They say yes.
- The dark lord is back, but Harry feels safe knowing he has the strongest, smartest and most gorgeous partners at his side.
