With the shock of becoming the fourth champion quickly dying down, Harry was fortunate enough to experience another good thing the day before his scheduled meeting with his godfather. Though naturally it happened when things were getting even worse. Rita Skeeter’s article came out, and Harry’s yes and no answers had been translated into long-winded stories about utter nonsense. Foolish stuff about how he apparently knew his parents were proud of him and that he sometimes still cried himself to sleep at night. Utter rubbish, but the hounding from the Slytherins had escalated to the point where were it not for Hermione Harry would have hexed them all.
