Chapter Eleven.
A lot of things happened during the last week, I thought that me and Harry would be suspended from riding brooms after the incident in class, but no we were both taken to the captain of Gryffindor quidditch team - Oliver Wood - and we were told that they needed a seeker, we were told that they wanted us both so they said we could take both be seeker but only one at a time so we had to take it in turns, I didn't particularly care we were going to be playing Quidditch team.
A couple of weeks had passed and we were now all sat in the hall talking about the parcel that Hagrid had taken out of our volt, Hagrid had told us not to bother him about it but we were still allowed to talk about it. We were distracted by the mail coming in from the owls, two large parcels were carried in by six screech owls, they were coming towards us. The owls dropped the parcels in front of me and Harry, I frowned and stroked the parcel, after a couple of minutes I smirked, it was a broom, I read the note and found out it was from Mrs McGonagall, well shes quite nice, I thought to myself.
"Come on" I motioned and we all walked out of the hall, towards the common room, Fred, George, Hermione. Neville, Ron and Harry followed me into the common room. Me and Harry placed our still wrapped up brooms in the middle of the floor, everyone was soon sitting around the two objects.
"So what is it?" George asked, I grinned.
"It's a broom" I replied, George, Fred and Neville all had 'woah' expressions on their faces, I laughed.
I grabbed my broom and un tied the string, holding the parcel together and pulled off the cardboard-like wrapping paper, when all of it was off I saw the Nimbus 2000 lying in my hands.
"Woah" Was all I managed, I wouldn't be able to get this broom if I was not playing on the Gryffindor Quidditch team, it was the fastest broom out there at the moment, I then spotted marking on it, it was in gold and it looked like the golden writing on the edge of the broom which said 'Nimbus 2000'.
"Well good night" I said, smirking as I looked at my friends gawping at my new broom, yeah I know its kinda mean but I'm like that. I skipped up to my room and opened the door and noticed Lavender was asleep, I sighed happily, I wouldn't have to deal with her constant chatter, which was annoying me more and more everytime she spoke.
I tip-toed passed my and I got to my bed, I placed the broom in my hiding place, which was in my chest under my bed.
I then got changed and fell on to my bed and wrapped myself in the red and gold blankets and soon dozed off into a lifeless sleep.
