Love to Cheer

This story is based off of (with her permission) DragonGurl2882's story, Cheer!

I hope I can make my version just as good as hers is. This story will be multi-chapter but I might not update really quickly.

Disclaimer: (this will only be in this chapter, so if you actually care just flip back and read it each time you start another chapter)

I do not own the Harry Potter Series and never will, sadly. But, I can use J. K. Rowling's characters and bend them to my will. Making them do whatever I want them to. Muahhahahaha! (You've got to love the evil laugh!)

However, I do own the outfits, my version of this idea and the sequence of events and what I make happen in this story.

I will not have anyone beta this story, so please don't ask.

Summary: Ginny and Hermione start a quidditch cheerleading squad. Many other girls that don't play quidditch join. A bunch of people end up together… mostly couples that you wouldn't expect. Not to mention what happens when Durmstrang and Beauxbatons arrive.

Chapter One

Ginny and Hermione were sitting on the couch in her living room and watching the football game on the screen, or at least Ginny was.

Hermione was leaning back reading Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, sighing every time there was a romantic part or Romeo and Juliet kissed.

The score was 34 to 27 by the time the game was half over and a bunch of cheerleaders came onto the middle of the field, doings flips and throwing other cheerleaders into the air. Ginny had no idea what they were doing so… "Hermione? What are those girls doing?" Hermione took a couple seconds to finish her page, closed the book, looked up and said ´oh, those are cheerleaders," 'What are cheerleaders," demanded a curious Ginny.

Hermione's reply was "Cheerleaders hold pom-poms and do tricks like making pyramids and doing flips and other tricks in the air half-way through games for events like soccer matches and football games, a group of cheerleaders is called a squad." "That would be fun! We should start a large squad, with four divisions for each house when we get back to Hogwarts!" Hermione liked that idea and voiced her opinion, stating that she would write a letter to Dumbledore asking permission.

Not even two hours later they had a reply. They opened the letter and it said as follows:

Dear Hermione and Ginny,

Yes, all is well here at Hogwarts. I think that this cheer-leading idea is just wonderful! I look forward to seeing your outfit and pom-pom designs! The rest of the Hogwarts staff agrees. Even though Severus did seem a little glum after I proposed the idea! Come see me at the start of the year, after the Opening Feast. Remember, I love Skiving Snackboxes!

Sincerely,

Albus Dumbledore

"Yeah!" screamed Ginny. "It's a dream come true! We will have so much fun! I can hardly wait to design the outfits,"…..

The rest of their summer vacation was spent designing cheerleading outfits for the four separate teams with their house colours and one large squad, with combined house colours. They also made up routines and combined muggle ones to make them even more impressive. At the end of the summer they had TONS of routines and the perfect outfits (A/N - Links to Pictures of outfits on my profile) for each house, as well as the Hogwarts cheer squad, which was going to be made out of the best cheerleaders in the four house squads.

At the end of the summer, they traveled to Kings Cross station, met up with their families and friends and said goodbye. They were very excited to be heading back to school… and to start the tryouts for cheerleading. But, when Hermione and Ginny opened their usual compartment door, they gaped in shock at what they saw….

Like the cliffy (cliffhanger)? Please review and yes, I will accept flames BUT… I don't want swearing in the reviews! I really enjoyed writing this story and even though I have been taking forever to write it, I have been REALLY busy. If you don't believe me… chew on this….. I have two projects due on the same day, in less than a month AND with two different partners. I am SOOO stressed but I know you guys are here for me (I think? Lol! )

Anyways, Please review and I hope you enjoy the story!
