Quidditch Match

Today was the Qudditch match, and god did Ron look nervous as he sat down with us.

“So how was it, then?” Ron asked about the dinner we had with Slughorn,
“How was what?” Hermione asked,
“Your dinner party?” Ron replied,
“Pretty boring, actually. Though I think Harry enjoyed dessert.” Hermione smirked looking at Harry, I was confused as I had no clue what they were on about, Harry glanced at me then looked back at his food.

“Slughorn’s having a Christmas do, you know. And we’re meant to bring someone.” Hermione spoke,
“I expect you’ll be bringing McLaggen. He’s in the Slug Club, isn’t he?” Ron asked,
“Actually, I was going to ask you.” Hermione spoke,
“Really?” Ron spoke.

Lavender walked along a few seconds later and stopped besides Ron,
“Good luck today, Ron. I know you’ll be brilliant.” She spoke and walked off.

“I’m resigning. After today’s match, McLaggen can have my spot.” Ron spoke,
“Have it your way.” Harry pushed Ron a drink forward, “Juice?” Harry asked,
“Sure.” Ron picked up the cup.

“Hello, everyone. You look dreadful, Ron. Is that why you put something in his cup? Is it a tonic?” Luna spoke, we looked at Harry and saw the small vial,
“Liquid luck. Don’t drink it, Ron.” Hermione whispered Ron did drink it. I looked at Harry with a sneaky glare as I could see he didn’t put the vial in the cup. “You could be expelled for that.” Hermione spoke,
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Harry replied Ron smiled.

“Come on, Harry. We’ve got a game to win.” Ron spoke as they shook hands strongly and left for the pitch.

The game was tense and fast as Ron was doing brilliantly defending the goals. We all cheered and clapped for him.

Weasley! Weasley! Weasley!” the crowd cheered on our side.

We won the match.

Weasley! Weasley! Weasley!” we all jumped around happily as Ron was above us all.

“You really shouldn’t have done it.” Hermione spoke,
“I know. I suppose I could’ve just used a Confundus Charm.” Harry spoke and looked at Hermione,
“That was different. That was tryouts. This was an actual game.” Hermione spoke as Harry pulled out the vial, “You didn’t put it in.” Hermione spoke, Harry shook his head, “Ron only thought you did.” Hermione added as Harry nodded.

Suddenly Lavender kissed Ron, we all cheered loudly, I saw Harry walking back to find Hermione. I stayed in the room for a bit but then went off to find my friends.

“How does it feel, Harry? When you see Meira with Jamie?” Hermione asked, I hidden on the stairs above from them both listening closely. Harry didn’t reply, “I know. I see the way you look at her. You’re my best friend, along with Mei.” Hermione spoke as I heard Lavender’s laughing.

“Oops. I think this room’s taken.” Lavender spoke,
“What’s with the birds?” Ron asked,
Oppungo.” Hermione spoke, I heard the birds tweet and then quick footsteps and several small thumps.

I heard Hermione start to cry again, I peaked around the corner of the stairs and saw Harry comforting Hermione on the floor.

“It feels like this.” Harry replied.

I quickly moved away and then ran back upstairs to the common room.

It was about half an hour away from midnight, I was laying on the sofa looking at the ceiling with a grin stretched across my face. I heard footsteps but didn’t bother to look as I saw Harry look over me I smiled at him.

“Can’t sleep?” I asked, Harry shook his head as he lifted me off the sofa and then let me lay back down on his lap, “Thank you.” I spoke,
“You’re welcome.” Harry replied as he looked down at me, “How are you and Jamie getting on?” Harry glared at the fire I frowned a little,
“Why don’t you like Jamie?” I asked simply Harry looked down at me,
“It’s not that I don’t like him, it’s--” Harry started,
“Lying.” I blatantly spoke, I could tell when people were lying and Harry knew that.

“I don’t think he’s good for you.” Harry simple put,
“Good for me? How?” I asked, Harry signed and looked down at me,
“The other day… Ron and me saw him talking to a few girls from his year… he…” Harry stopped,
“Tell me or I’ll go ask him myself.” I spoke,
“He kissed one of the girls.” Harry spoke, I sighed, and folded my arms.

“Nobody crosses me without payback.” I spoke, Harry looked at me confused,
“You believe me?” Harry asked,
“One, I’ve known you for 5 years and you’ve never lied to me. Two, I believe you because I know you a hell of a lot better then Jamie and I’d risk my life with you. And three, you know for a fact I can tell when people are lying if I am with them when they tell the lie.” I explained Harry nodded as I smirked, “Help me plan payback.”
