Disclaimer: I own nothing except my character Kinsie.
Author Note: Hello, thanks you for the wonderful reviews. I'm glad you liked the last chapter so much. I'm kind of suffering from writers block right now, but don't worry I have two more completed chapters after this one and I should hopefully have inspiration by then. Enjoy the chapter.
The next morning everyone woke up, had breakfast and made their way to the quidditch pitch. Kinsie was very nervous. Oliver wanted to win so badly and she wanted her team to win. The thing was her boyfriend was playing against her and he wanted to win and she wanted him to catch the snitch at least. She didn't know what to do. She sighed as Oliver gave his speech, same old speech, same old Oliver. Finally they marched out to the field and Cedric and Oliver shook hands, more forcefully than was needed. They all mounted their brooms and rose into the air. Madam Hooch blew the whistle to start the game. Kinsie got the quaffle and scored right away. As she flew around she saw Cedric and Harry looking for the snitch. She really wished Cedric would catch it, but she wanted Gryffindor to win. It wasn't much longer until Gryffindor scored again and easy goal by Angelina. Then Hufflepuff scored two times and Gryffindor scored again. The game went back and forth like this for a while. Cedric and Harry hadn't even spotted the snitch yet. Finally Cedric saw something whiz past him and he took off, Harry was behind him. Kinsie stopped, she saw them both going after the snitch and she didn't know who to cheer for. Finally a loud voice snapped her out of her daze.
"KINSIE WE ARE PLAYING A GAME HERE, GET IT TOGETHER!" Oliver yelled.
Kinsie snapped out of it just in time to hear George yell.
"KINSIE LOOK OUT!" she looked, a bludger was heading straight for her, she didn't have time to duck so it hit her in the head and she lost her balance and fell. She was plummeting towards the ground, she knew she would hit the ground any minute. She screamed. Cedric and Harry both heard the scream and turned to look.
"Kinsie," they both said and looked at each other.
"I guess this means you win," Cedric said and took off to try and catch Kinsie.
Harry looked at Cedric and then to the snitch circling his head as if it was teasing him, saying catch me, catch me. Harry heard Oliver yell.
"CATCH THE SNITCH HARRY! JUST GO ON AND CATCH IT!" He looked at Oliver. He couldn't do it, it wouldn't be fair. He wanted to win fair, not catch it because Cedric went to save his girlfriend. Harry turned and went after Cedric who had almost reached Kinsie.
"HARRY WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!" Oliver yelled but everyone ignored him. Kinsie was still falling, she expected to hit the ground any minute, but she never did. She felt a pair of strong arms wrap around her and lower her to the ground. The rest of both quidditch teams soon landed as well.
"Princess are you ok?" Cedric asked worried as he looked at her head.
"Head hurts," she said in tears.
"I'm sure it does," Cedric said as Harry and Oliver landed.
"Harry, why didn't you catch the snitch, it was there buzzing around your head!"
"Because I wanted to catch it fair, it wasn't fair because he left to help Kinsie" Harry answered. Kinsie heard how sorry he was that he disappointed Oliver, he was such a sweet kid and Kinsie really liked him.
"We can have a rematch," Harry told him.
"A REMATCH!" Oliver yelled. "WE COULD HAVE WON!"
"Well winning is everything," Harry said softly.
"WHAT!" Oliver yelled. Kinsie grabbed her head.
"OLIVER!" she yelled, she was sorry she did because it made her head hurt more. Oliver looked down at Kinsie; Cedric had his arms around her.
"WHAT!" he yelled.
"My head is hurting, and everything may be spinning a little but if you do not leave Harry alone I will stick my foot so far up your ass you'll have toenails for teeth," she told him grabbing her head. "Besides all your yelling is making my headache worse."
Oliver and everyone else looked at her shocked.
"Mr. Diggory, take Miss. Lewis to the hospital wing." McGonagall said. "After you have gotten her settled in and made sure she is ok, we'll discuss a rematch." She told him. "Come to my office before lunch, you to Wood" McGonagall said and they both agreed. Cedric picked Kinsie up in his arms and carried her to the castle.
"Did you hear what she said to me?" Oliver asked insulted.
"Oliver, you shouldn't have yelled at Harry, he was trying to be fair." Katie told him.
"This coming from someone screwing a Slytherin," Oliver said and Katie thought about slapping him but restrained herself.
"Oliver not that its any of your business but just so you know Marcus and I haven't slept together yet," Katie said and walked away.
"Oliver, it wouldn't have been right if we won that way and you know it," Angelina told him.
"Harry did the right thing mate," George said.
"We'll have a rematch and everything will be fine," Fred told him. "Now go get some rest so you can meet McGonagall." He added and Oliver nodded and left.
Cedric carried Kinsie into the hospital wing and laid her down where Madam Pomfrey instructed. Madam Pomfrey then shooed him away so she could examine Kinsie. Cedric waited and waited until finally Madam Pomfrey came out.
"She'll be fine," She told him. "I'm keeping her overnight because it's a head injury. I can tell she's been under a lot of stress. She needs to rest, you may see her but make your visit short."
"Ok thank you," Cedric said politely and walked over to Kinsie.
"Hey Princess," he said softly.
"Hi," she said weakly giving him a slight smile.
"How's your head?"
"It hurts, but Madam Pomfrey said I'd be ok."
"Yeah she told me you would be ok as well."
"Will there be a rematch?" Kinsie asked.
"I'm sure there will be, I don't know when because the next few weeks are busy with quidditch games."
"It doesn't matter," Kinsie sighed.
"Kinsie I…" Cedric began but Madame Pomfrey interrupted.
"Times up Mr. Diggory."
"I'll see you later," Cedric told Kinsie and kissed her on the forehead before leaving.
A few hours later Harry came in to see Kinsie.
"Hey Harry," Kinsie said smiling.
"Hi," he said quietly. "Thank you for taking up for me with Oliver. You didn't have to." Harry said, "Feeling better?"
"A little," she told him, "I have to stay the night though."
"You'll make it, I always do."
"Yeah you do," Kinsie agreed.
"I should go I have to meet Hermoine in the library."'
"Ok see you later Harry," Kinsie said and he nodded and left.
Cedric and Oliver were in McGonagall's office waiting for her. They were both trying not to say anything to each other and it was hard for both of them. Finally McGonagall came in.
"Ok Mr. Wood, Mr. Diggory. I have just been to see Madam Hooch and Professor Dumbledore. We discussed a rematch for Gryffindor and Hufflepuff. Madam Pomfrey says Miss. Lewis will be out of the hospital wing tomorrow. So rematch on Tuesday afternoon, Professor Dumbledore has cancelled all afternoon classes for that day," she told them. "Now Mr. Diggory you may go."
"Yes Ma'am," he said and left.
"Now Mr. Wood we need to discuss your behavior this afternoon," McGonagall said"You need to learn to control your temper. Yelling at your quidditch players isn't a good way to remain captain and have the respect of your team."
"But Kinsie…" Oliver began.
"Yes Miss. Lewis should have worded what she said differently but Mr. Wood I'm warning you; control your temper." She told him firmly. "Now you may go." She said and Oliver left.
Angelina and Alicia came to see Kinsie after lunch. Katie came with Marcus, who really wasn't as bad as she had always thought. Fred and George came to see her, Even Dustin and Jessica came to visit as well. The only person she didn't see was Oliver and well she didn't want to see him anyway.
The next morning Madam Pomfrey examined Kinsie and after saying she was fine, she let her go. As she was walking out of the hospital wing to breakfast she ran into Cedric.
"Hey you're free," he said cheerfully.
"Yep, Madam Pomfrey let me go."
"Want to walk to breakfast?"
"Yes I do,' she told him and they walked towards the Great Hall.
"So is there a rematch?" Kinsie asked.
"Tuesday afternoon. Dumbledore cancelled all afternoon classes."
"Oh," Kinsie said.
"How's your head?" Cedric asked concerned.
"Its ok, I mean it doesn't hurt as bad as it did there is still a little pain but Madam Pomfrey gave me something for it and it should be cleared up soon."
"Good," Cedric said smiling at her as they reached the doors to the Great Hall. They went inside and everyone looked over.
"I'll see you later," Kinsie said quietly and they went their separate ways.
"Hey Kinsie," Angelina said immediately after she sat down.
"Hi," Kinsie said.
"Feeling better?" Alicia asked.
"Better than I was yesterday," Kinsie told her as Oliver sat down. He looked over at Kinsie.
"Hi," Oliver said. "I'm sorry I didn't come and see you yesterday." He said quietly.
"Its ok Oliver," she told him.
"So the rematch is Tuesday afternoon," Oliver old her.
"I heard," Kinsie replied.
"From Diggory?"
"Yeah," Kinsie said and Oliver said nothing more.
The next morning Kinsie was in her Potions class, going over notes with Cedric when Snape stood up.
"Alright," he began and everyone looked at him. "I have decided that I will have a meeting with all of the groups individually, I have assigned each group a day and time. The meetings will not be longI just want to meetwith youandtalk about the potion you will be making," he went on. "Everyone listen carefully, I will not repeat myself." He told them. He read off names until every group had a time. Cedric and Kinsie would be meeting after dinner tonight "Now class dismissed," he said and everyone rushed out.
"So I guess we're meeting Snape tonight," Cedric said.
"I guess so, I have quidditch practice tonight until 6:00" she told him.
"Oliver works his team to hard," Cedric said.
"That may be true but that's just Oliver," Kinsie told him.
So around 4:00, the Gryffindor quidditch team found themselves practicing, Oliver worked them hard, much harder than he ever had before. At 6:00 he did release them and they all rushed into the castle. Kinsie showered and dressed, so she wouldn't be late meeting Snape. She was walking through the Gryffindor common room when she heard Oliver call her.
"Kinsie wait a minute," she said following her out the Portrait hole.
"What Oliver," she said when they were in the hallway, "You know I have to meet Snape."
"Yes I do, but Kinsie," he said.
"What is it Oliver, I don't have all day" she snapped.
"You've changed, ever since you've been dating Diggory, hanging out with Diggory you've been different."
"Well you're the only one complaining," she told him crossing her arms over her chest.
"You don't get it, I'm not complaining."
"Oliver what do you want?" she asked.
"I thought that was obvious by now," he sighed and she looked at him. "You," he told her.
"Oliver, you know I can't," she told him.
"Kinsie," he whispered cupping her cheek, then leaning over and kissing her. She felt him push his tongue in her mouth. She pushed him away.
"Don't ever do that again!" she told him angrilyholding her fists at her side. Oliver took a step back. "I'm with Cedric, I care about Cedric, I'm not leaving him or dumping him for you or anyone else," she said firmly and turned to walk away. "Oh and one more thing find a new chaser for quidditch because I quit, you really stepped over the line this time," she told him in a final way and he knew it was over, that she really was quitting and no one could get her back on the team. He turned and walked back into the common room.
"What did you do?" George asked Oliver who plopped on the couch by him; Alicia was next to him.
"I messed up big time and it cost me a quidditch player," he said miserably.
"What did you do to Kinsie?" Alicia asked.
"I kissed her and told her I wanted her," Oliver whispered.
"You didn't," George said and he looked at Oliver who nodded. "You did," he said.
"She quit and she won't rejoin, no one will be able to get her to rejoin, how do I replace her?" he asked and turned to Alicia. "Do you think you could play just Tuesday until I can find a new player, I'll have tryouts after Tuesday." He told her.
"Oliver I don't like the way you've treated Kinsie, but I will play Tuesday but no more after that, you better find yourself a new quidditch player." Alicia told him and he nodded.
