Chapter 10

"All right everybody!" Harry said loudly. "Today is the first day of practice. For those of you who are trying out for the keeper position, this will be the day that will determine who is on the team."

Ginny looked around at the other people trying out beside her. There were about 10 other people. She looked at their brooms and sighed. They all had better brooms than she did.

"Now, there is one thing that I am going to do differently this year than other captains in the past have done. I believe that you should be judged on your quality of playing, not the quality of your broom."

'What does he mean by that?' Ginny wondered silently. 'All of us have different brooms!'

"So you will have the choice of using either my broom or yours." Harry heard many gasps from the team and people trying out as he said this. "If you want to use my broom you have to be very careful with it though. I will give you five minutes to get used to it before I see what you are capable of. Now, who would like to go first?"

Ginny slowly raised her hand. "I'll go first." She said nervously.

"Thanks, Ginny. Here is my broom. You can warm up for 5 minutes. Everybody else can also warm up on their own brooms. Get going everybody!"

All of the possible keepers got on their brooms and kicked off. A few minutes later Harry called them down.

"Okay everybody. The chasers will through the Quaffle at you and see how many times you can block it. Ginny, you go up and start."

Ginny picked up Harry's broom and went up to the air. The chasers tried to put the Quaffle past her 15 times, and she only missed it once, and then it was only by a hair. Once after another the other Gryffindors went up and they each had the Quaffle go in at least 3 times out of the 15. At the end Harry called them all together.

"Good job everybody. I will post the results tomorrow after dinner. Thank you for coming down and trying out."

With that everybody picked up their brooms and went to put them away.

"Harry, wait up!" Ginny yelled. Harry stopped and waited for Ginny to catch up. "That was really nice of you to let everyone use your broom."

"I just wanted everybody to have a fair chance today." Harry responded.

"Yeah, I know. You said that. It's just that nobody has ever done anything like that for me before, even my brothers haven't been that nice."

"Why wouldn't they?" Harry asked. "It isn't you fault that you are the youngest. And you are really nice too." Harry smiled. "I would like to get to know you a little better, as friends."

"Really? That would be really nice." Blushing, Ginny gave Harry a friendly hug and skipped to the castle.

"So Ginny, what was all that going on between you and Harry?" Ginny's friend, Chrissy asked.

"What do u mean?" A blush started to rise onto Ginny's face. "There isn't anything going on between us."

"Haha, that's what they allll say...before they get married hehe..." Zoe, Ginny's other friend but in.

"We are just friends you two. He was helping me out with my flying."

"Do you know what that means with a guy?" Chrissy prided herself on studying the other species.

"I see the hidden message."

"Ok, if you are so smart, tell me what it means." Ginny said, starting to get agitated.

"Well..."

"Chrissy!! Let me do it! Please?" Zoe begged.

"Oh, fine."

"Thankie!! Well... it means that.... HE LIKES YOU!!!!!" She squealed.

"Come on, really now. Why would Harry Potter like me?"

"The signs are all there. Both Zoe and I can see them plainly. You could too if you just looked for them."

"Come on Ginny! It's sooooo obvious."

"Whatever guys, lets go to lunch."

Meanwhile....

"Harry! What exactly is going on between you and Ginny?" Ron asked.

"Nothing Ron."

"Sure, sure. I know you better than that."

"Can we talk about this later? We need to get to lunch."

"Sure, I'm hungry." As he said this, Ron's stomach growled.

"When aren't you hungry?" Harry picked up his things then he and Ron went to lunch.
