The halls of Hogwarts were filled with the excitement of the Triwizard Tournament. Everyone was talking about it, and about the Winter Formal, especially the girls who were already planning their dates and dresses. But you, a Slytherin girl, weren't particularly excited. All this commotion only meant chaos and when students from other schools arrived, things would get even more complicated.

After a long Potions class, you just wanted a moment of peace. But unfortunately for you, halfway back to Gryffindor Tower, Headmaster Dumbledore approached you. "Ah, miss, I have a little mission for you. I'd like you to introduce the castle to one of the tournament champions. Mr. Viktor Krum, of the Durmstrang Institute. I know you will be an excellent host."

You swallowed hard, forcing a smile and accepted. As you walked to meet Krum, you felt the weight of this "mission" increase. All the girls were crazy about him. The famous Seeker of the Bulgarian Quidditch Team, the darling of Durmstrang. But to you, he seemed like just another strong, standard boy, nothing that special.

Soon, you saw Krum waiting in the lobby. He looked exactly like the descriptions: tall, muscular, intimidating. He watched you curiously as you approached, and quickly noticed your enthusiasm... or lack thereof. A small mischievous smile appeared on his lips.

"You... don't seem that impressed, princess." he said with a heavy accent, eyes shining with provocation.
