Next chapter! So obviously with Chase here we all know who I'm pairing Alex with :P But I'm gonna give the couple a lot of complications because I don't like the idea of having a couple together from the beginning :D
Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter or Wizards of Waverly Place
Alex couldn't believe that he was here. Chase Riprock. Of all people it had to be the one who almost kissed her and ruined her relationship with Mason, momentarily. Alex was torn. Should she happy that she gets to see an old friend or should she be angry that the guy that almost ruined relationship is right in front of her?
Chase approached her, "How've you been? I haven't seen you since that Wizard of the Year banquet."
Alex couldn't speak. She could speak, but she didn't know what to say. What can she say? 'Hi Chase sorry that I couldn't go out with you, but after you left I got back with Mason!' That wouldn't work out well. "F-fine" she finally stuttered
Chase chuckled, "What's with the stuttering? Are you afraid me?"
"No," Alex snapped at him. "I just didn't expect to see you."
"Since I'm here why don't I take you the championship quidditch match? It's the Holyhead Harpies against Wimbourne Wasps" Chase offered "It's only fair since I ruined your relationship with Mason"
Alex felt a huge wave guilt. He's offering to take her out for ruining her relationship that's already fixed. "Sure I would love to"
Chase smiled, "Great I'll pick you up at seven," and with that he left.
Harper grabbed Alex's arm. "Alex what are you doing? Your going on a date with Chase! You just got back with Mason."
Alex rolled her eyes, "It's not a date just two friends catching up"
"Yea, and one friend wants to kiss the other, while the other has a boyfriend!"
"Harper he's not gonna kiss me." Alex paused for bit "What's quidditch?"
"It's the most popular sport in the wizard world" Hermione spoke "They are seven players: three chasers, two beaters, one keeper, and one seeker. The three chasers try to score on the other opponents goal. The two beaters hit bludger around and try hit the other players off their broomsticks. The keeper protects the goal. And the seeker, there goal is to catch the golden snitch. If they catch it it's an automatic win, but the game doesn't until its caught. The longest game ever played lasted over three months"
"I could be stuck there for three months?" Alex asked
"Alex that's only if the seekers can't catch the snitch, besides the Harpies and Wasps are great teams, at least they were fifteens years ago, the game will be done before you know it" Hermione said
"And if it lasts over a week I'm dragging you home" Harper added
Alex laughed, "Thanks Harper"

Hours past, and the clock is soon to strike seven. Alex looked a bit better than she usually does, she doesn't want to go all out since it wasn't a official date. Alex was excited but at the same time afraid. She was excited that she gets to go to her very first quidditch match and it was the championship game. But also she was afraid of countless things. First off what if the game lasted three months like Hermione said or Chase does try to kiss her. But the thing that feared her the most is if Mason finds out this 'date'. Last time he saw them together he destroy the banquet. So he must never find out about this.
Alex pacing in the lair asked "Hermione, why do you have to come?"
Hermione sitting at the desk replied, "What's wrong with me coming? I haven't seen a quidditch match in fifteen years and I promised Harper to make sure he doesn't snog you or anything. Besides it's not like he can see me"
"First off it's suppose to be just me and him, not Alex, Chase, and that girl no one can see. Second, you don't even remember being in the wand for fifteen years, so its been like months since you saw a quidditch match. Third, nothing is gonna happen between me and Chase. Fourth, he may not be able to see you but he can hear you and you have a big mouth. Fifth, snog?"
"Alex why are so worried? I thought you didn't care what people think of you." Hermione asked "And snog means deeply kissing someone"
"I don't care what people think about me" Alex snapped at her "And eww I've never snogged somebody before"
"Rubbish" Hermione said quickly under her breath. Alex smack the back of her head.
Chase came through the portal holding a bouquet of rose. Hermione smirked giving her a 'I told you so' look to Alex. Alex was to shocked to notice Hermione. Did Chase think that this was an actual date? Then again what kind of date is taking a girl to a sporting event. Alex approached Chase and gave her a brief hug, "Are these for me?" she asked while looking the roses.
"Why yes they are," Chase handed her the bouquet with a smirk. "We better hurry if we want to get good seats"
Alex, Chase, and Hermione made they through the portal and into the wizard world.

Saying the place was packed was an understatement. People had tents up. Surprising to Alex they're huge inside. There wasn't a single seat not taken. Even families separated so they could get seats. They bets being placed for which will win. Arguments and fights broke out too. Geez these people are more excited than muggles on Superbowl Sunday Alex thought to herself. Finding a place was a challenge, Alex was persistent to get seats by the end so Hermione could sit on the steps instead of sitting on someone. But after what felt like hours they were able to find two vaccinate seats near the end. Alex and Chase took their seats and Hermione stood for the time being. It was only minutes until the game started.
Attempting to make small talk Chase said, "You know I play quidditch"
"So you're a beast tamer and a quidditch player. What's next, an auror?" Alex joked "What position do you play?"
"I'm a chaser. Our team's pretty good, but not professional player good" Chase answered
"Chase the chaser, that's not ironic" Alex told him sarcastically. Chase laughed at the comment. "Maybe I could see you practice sometime" Alex asked him
"Maybe you could" Chase smirked at her.
Chase continued to tell Alex about quidditch, personally she rather hear about his beast taming. Time flew and before they knew it the game began. The Harpies and Wasps came out. Hermione tried to see if she recognized any of the players but they were to far away to get a clear image of their faces. The game was intense. The chasers were extremely fast. Hermione looked at there broomsticks there worst was a firebolt, the broomstick harry had, and as she remembered it was the best now it looks like a piece of shit. The beaters were ruthless. The constantly were swinging attempting to hit someone. A chaser on the Wasps was already knock out. The keepers were like a brick wall. They kept being hit bludgers and not giving. The seekers you couldn't even see! They were chasing the snitch like there was no tomorrow. Needless to say the game became more intense in fifteen years.
Then the seeker for the Harpies dove down to catch the snitch and she caught it! "The Harpies won! 180 to 130! Ginvera Malfoy has won the match!" The announcer spoke.
"Did he just say Ginvera...Malfoy?" Hermione asked surprised
Alex looked at Hermione, she could barely hear her through the roar of the crowd, and thank god for that too or else Chase would have heard her. Alex turned to Hermione "Do you know her?"
Hermione whisper, more like yell due to the crowd, "Yea, she was my best girl friend at Hogwarts." She paused "She married him?"
Alex raised her eyebrow, "Who'd she marry?"
"Malfoy, Draco Malfoy. He was Harry's rival. I can't believe she married him"
"He can't be that bad, right?" Alex asked
"He was a death eater. He's the reason why Dumbledore died. He thought he was better than everyone else because he was a pure-blood; he's a giant prat" Hermione spat out the last part for emphasis
"It has been fifteen years maybe he's changed" Alex suggested
She scoffed, "Yea right, he's a git. Always have and always will be"
After the match Chase took Alex home, she wanted to talk to Ginvera, or as Hermione calls her, Ginny. But the line was way to long and Alex did not have the patience for all that waiting. Alex found the sport exciting she wanted to play it. She wants to play a sport. Now that's saying something. When they arrived home Chase spoke, "I had a great time with you"
Alex smiled, "I did too," she paused for awhile. "We should this again sometime"
Chase grinned back, "We should" he went up and hugged her. "Bye Alex" then he was gone.
Hermione wanted to talk to Alex about Ginny but she turned to speak she saw that Alex was fast asleep on the red couch. Hermione chuckled. Having Alex around was almost as enjoyable has having Harry and Ron around. Almost.
