Harry Potter Love Story (all of the plot and credit and characters except for mine belong to J.K. Rowling all credit from any HP material I use belongs to her not trying to make any money off of her work, all credit belongs to her and the director of any Hp movies that have passed and have yet to come)
The rest of the week past and Hermione and I had officially become friends with Ron and Harry, except Hermione was my BEST friend. It was Saturday and after breakfast was the Quidditch match, it was Gryffindor vs Slytherin. What a coincidence the two Hogwarts houses that were supposed to hate each other, get put against each other in a Quidditch match. For some odd reason I wasn't nervous, unlike Harry who was picking at his sausage and eggs.
"Oh come on Harry, you have to eat something, even Oliver says its good to have breakfast before a Quidditch match even if you have to force yourself to eat a little bit" I said trying to encourage him to eat something.
"I'm not hungry" Harry said.
"Good luck today Potter, and you Lupin" a deep voice said.
Hermione and I turned around and saw Professor Snape, he hated me and Harry, but he hated Harry more.
"After battling a troll a little game of Quidditch should come easy for the both of you, even if it is against Slytherin" he continued smirking before heading up to the teachers table.
"That explains the blood" Harry muttered.
Hermione and I faced him and asked "Blood?"
"I think Snape was trying to get past that three headed dog on Halloween" Harry whispered.
"But why would anyone want to go near that dog" Hermione asked.
"I don't know but I think you were right Hermione, it's guarding something" I said.
Just then an owl hooted from somewhere. We looked up and saw a white snowy owl flying towards us with a long package. The owl flew down low and dropped the package over Harry, who caught it.
"It's a bit early for mail isn't it" Hermione asked looking at the package.
"Strange I never get mail" Harry said.
"Let's open it" Ron said excited.
We helped Harry open the package and it revealed a Nimbus 2000. I gaped at it in awe.
"Its a broomstick" Harry gasped.
"Thank you Captain Obvious" I said making him roll his eyes.
"That's not just a broomstick Harry, that's a Nimbus 2000" Ron exclaimed.
"Once again thank you Mr. Obvious" I said.
"Oh shut up" Ron said.
"But who" Harry stopped mid sentence looking at the teachers table.
Oliver then came up and told me and Harry to head to the Quidditch pitch right after breakfast, to go over some things, and for a last minuet practice.
After Harry and I ate Hermione wished us luck.
"So Harry was that your owl or was that one of the school's owls" I asked as we walked to the Quidditch pitch.
"That was my owl, Hagrid bought her for me for a birthday present" Harry said.
"What's her name, and when's your birthday so I can remember to send you a birthday present" I asked.
"Her name is Hedwig and my birthday is July 31st, when's yours" he asked.
"August 2nd" I said.
"Your birthday is only two days after mine" he said.
"What a coincidence" I said.
"Yeah" he replied as we entered the changing rooms (ME: not 100% sure what they called them).
The rest of the team, Angelina Johnson (Chaser), Alicia Spinnet (Chaser), Fred & George Weasley (Beaters), and Oliver Wood (Keeper/Captain) were there. Oliver then started his peep talk, which I am not going to say what he said because its so boring, and then gave a good luck. We didn't get a chance to practice because once his peep talk was over we could hear people filling the stands. We got dressed into our Quidditch robes.
"You nervous" Angelina asked me as I put my hair into a high ponytail.
"A little" I said, it was the truth now that the match was here I was nervous.
"Don't worry everyone gets nervous at their first game, and besides we'll be their with you" Alicia said kindly.
"Thanks" I said.
"It's time" Oliver said from the other room.
The three of us went and joined the rest of the team. I stood with Angelina and Alicia holding a Clean Sweep 2000 that was from the school, everyone else except for Harry, had similar brooms.
"Scared Harry" Oliver asked.
"A little" Harry replied gulping.
"Don't worry, I felt the same way when it was my first game" Oliver said.
"What happened" Harry asked.
"Uh, I don't really remember, I took a bludger to the head, and woke up in the hospital a week later" Oliver said.
Then the gate opened up and we walked out. Angelina, Alicia, and I along with everyone else got into our positions.
"Everyone welcome to the first Quidditch game of the season, for today's game Slytherin versus Gryffindor! The players take their positions as Madame Hooch walks out to the field to begin the game" the announcer said into a microphone (ME: or whatever they called it).
Madame Hooch walked out with the chest and said loudly for all of us to hear "Now I want a nice clean game, from all of you."
She released the bludgers and golden snitch.
"The bludgers are released, followed by the Golden Snitch which is worth 150 points, whichever Seeker catches the snitch wins the game" the announcer said.
Madame Hooch then threw the Quaffle up into the air.
"And the game begins" the announcer said.
I managed to grab the ball first and started flying towards the Slytherin goal.
