Josh walked among the little crowd of students with his usual confident attitude. He was here for a very important mission. Yes. He was supposed to find a way to put his name in that Goblet thing. So when he saw the Age Line he stopped for a moment and examined it. There was no doubt that this was a powerful magic and no fifteen year olds could step in the circle.

But he is Josh, the master of everything therefore he was not giving up. Looking around he saw two pretty Beauxbatons girls, one of them was Monique who he had spoken with before, talking to Carter and Patroclus. Hmm. Now he knew what to do.

Walking past other students Josh stopped right before the French girl and gave her a huuuge smile. ''Bonjour, sweetie'' he said cheerfully ''Can you do me a favour sil vous plait'' did he say that right? Meh. Who cared? Then winking at her he took a piece of parchment out his pocket. ''On this parchment you can read my name, Joshua Carter'' he said showing the piece of parxhment to the girl. ''Can you please throw it in the Goblet for me? Pleeeaaaseee!!''

*Big puppy eyes*

Batting her eyelids as Monique named her, Brielle couldn't help but make mention of the use of Bon-Door "Carter," she said, her 'R' purring like that of a cat, "It seems you need some French lessons, I am shocked Patroclus 'ere 'as not 'elped you, 'e seems to be Frenchmen!" she flirted with her eyes.
Looking over the boy's shoulders she noticed the appearance of a dark headed girl who seemed to be friendly with the boys.
However she too seemed to be surprised by the boy's French.

Brielle could not help but laugh!

Another Gryffindor had pushed his way through the crowd to gain their attention, then called her sweetie, and then asked to have her enter him into the tournament.
After looking at Monique with a wide smile across her face, Brielle returned her vision to the new arrival, his attitude rather reminded her of Nikolai.
"I am zorry, petit Lion cub, but ze Tournament is only for big boys!" she smiled, tappping him on the nose with her elegant finger, "Perhaps when you are a tad older you can enter, and maybe then I will let you call me sweetie!"

The boy was confident, a trait she found rather appealing, but no one called her sweetie and got away without a bruised ego.

His lion buddy was naturally red, a colour Patroclus soon turned as well.

Blushing the colour of his robes, they boy could only say "merci" as both French girls commented on his excellent pronounciation. Patroclus was not usually one to get tongue tied in front of girls, he knew quite a few Beauxbaton girls already. But something about the two glamazons before him sealed him like a calm.

What was worst was what happened next, over to his side, Evelyn appeared, and instanly he felt bad for blushing so severely over the girls, he felt like he was in trouble. "Evelyn, I thought you would have put two and two together," Patroclus said, a tad surprised she hadn't expected it of him. "Considering who my Mum is!"

He needed an interuption, and he got one in the form of Josh.

Patroclus quickly turned his attention to the boy, praying his redness would go down, he didn't want Evelyn seeing him blush over someone else. Listening Patroclus was amazed by the boys forth-coming, and it seemed Brielle was too.

Listening to her reply was like watching a funny video when someone got hurt, Patroclus couldn't look away, it was hilariously funny but he felt bad for Josh. The girl pretty much called him a little kid, something he was sure Josh would not want to hear.

Josh blinked at the french girl a couple of times. Definitely Monique was way nicer than her. Maybe he should have asked to her. He needed to find a way to put his name in the goblet anyway and he was going to, at least, try his best for it. ''I guess this means no''

Worse than the fact that she refused to put his name in the goblet, she simply spoke as if he was a first year in front of all those people. Josh did not have any problem with being taunted before a crowd since he would laugh at anything funny but it was a fact that he was not a little kid. ''Actually i am fifteen'' he said to defend himself ''Just two years younger and, believe me, i am more of a big boy than the ones you call a big boy''
Then smirking he took a back step towards Patroclus who was talking to...Evelyn!

And…and THAT one. With the blondish hair…she… Well, actually Evelyn didn’t care what she did. She wasn’t the one speaking to Patroclus and doing that obvious thing with the eyes that would probably make the Gryffindork drool. Ugh. She supposed though, that welcoming them to Hogwarts would be the polite thing to do, and to wish them good luck with the tournament. She didn’t get as far as opening her mouth though when another favorite Gryffindor of hers came up, and was TALKING to the FRENCH girl who…PFFFT! No one taps Josh on the nose like that! Unless it was her! “No, he isn’t allowed to call you sweetie. Even when he’s older.” Because she said so.

Why did he call her sweetie anyways? And why was she so dang jealous? “Oh, and welcome to Hogwarts. And…good luck with the goblet, name thing.” Meh. "The tournament I mean."

She had to say something nice in there somewhere didn't she?

And, Josh was falling for all this stuff. Why!? It was so ridiculous! Is this Rae saw when she was talking to the mysterious Durmstrang guy at the feast? Pffft. No, this was completely different. Josh didn’t look like an idiot. It was just, the two French girls should be OUT of the picture. Besides, she was going to refrain from that big boy comment he just said…

Yea, she was completely missing the fact that Josh was trying to put his name in the Goblet of Fire.

Aw that’s right, his mum. Glancing over to Patroclus, Evelyn stared at him for a moment, all the information suddenly leaving her mind. What about his mum again? She was French? “I never met her.” Hehe, she was going to be sticking to that, and why she forgot…everything she did. It was the moment of course. Making her go crazy and losing valuable information.
