"Now team, this the plan, chase like you've never chased before, beat like you've never beat before, keep like you've never kept before, and seek like you've never seeked before," Angelina said. We were getting ready to go out and play Slytherin and show off the new Gryffindor line up which was a secret to everyone except Gryffindor and Draco.

"You sound like Oliver," Katie said.

"I do not. I'm just saying we're smarter, faster and better than Slytherin. We can wipe the floor with them," Angelina said. "Not to mention that with Hannah on the team, Malfoy will totally be off his game."

"True, true. I am pretty nice to look at," I admitted.

"Now let's get out onto that field," Angelina said. We all got up. This was a moment that I'd been dreading for the longest time.

We flew out onto the field.

"And here comes Gryffindor onto the field, captained by Angelina Johnson. You know I've asked her out but she's always turned me down and-."

"Mister Jordan," McGonagall cut him off.

"Sorry. Also we have three new players on the Gryffindor Quidditch team, replacing Fred and George Weasley and Harry Potter. Taking the position of seeker is Ginny Weasley. Taking the position of beater is Cormac McLaggen and Hannah Potter," Lee announced.

Immediately the murmuring throughout the stadium began.

"And so it begins," Ginny said as we flew into formation. "Good luck, Hannah."

"Kick my boyfriend's ass, Ginny," I said.

"With pleasure," she replied.

The bludgers were released, followed by the golden snitch. my eyes followed it as it flew out of sight. I looked up and saw that Draco was looking down at me.

I swallowed hard. I was all nerves. Draco gave me an encouraging smile and wink. Even playing on the opposing team he was still trying to encourage me.

Madame Hooch threw the quaffle up and the game began. . .

1 Hour into the match

We were tied at 120 points each. Ginny and Draco were in hot pursuit of the golden snitch.

"They're both so close! This could go either way!" Lee said. He was announcing now at the top of his lungs and everyone was holding their breath to see who would catch it first.

I saw a bludger flying towards Cormac. I had a thought.

"McLaggen," I called, "hit it here!"

Cormac shrugged and as the bludger headed towards him. He hit the bludger to me. I swung the bat and hit the bludger forward towards Draco and Ginny.

*Please work. Please work. Please work.*

The bludger flew right at them. Ginny was the first to notice the bludger which was a good thing. She sped up past Draco and caught the snitch. Everyone cheered. She flew up into the air, snitch in hand.

Draco stopped in the air and said something to Ginny who was flailing her arms trying to get him to turn around and move away from the bludger that was flying towards him. Draco was ignoring her flailing.

"Move your dumbass out of the way!" Ginny yelled. Draco turned around to see why and WHAM!

"Ooh." swam throughout the crowd. Draco fell from him broom to the ground and another ooh was let out. Angelina flew over to me.

"Oh my goodness," was all I was able to say. I'd just knocked my boy friend unconscious.

Snape and Madame Pomfrey carried him off the field.

"Do you think he's alright?" I asked in a panic.

"I don't know. That happened to Oliver and he was out for a week and could barely remember his name," I said in a panic.

Ginny flew over to me.

"I tried to tell him to move, you saw I did," Ginny said.

"I know, Ginny, I know," I said, still panicked.

"He'll be fine. Look, let's go walk you up to the hospital wing," Angelina said.

We all went off the pitch and changed.

I ran up to the hospital wing. Draco was lying in a hospital bed, still in his Quidditch robes and luckily he was awake, but clearly in pain. His whole team was standing around him along with Pansy, Blaise, and Kassia.

I pushed through them and over to Draco.

"What are you doing here? You did this to him," Pansy said.

"Parkinson, I'm going to hex you if you don't move and let Hannah by," Ginny said.

"I dare you," Pansy said.

"No, you do not want to be on the receiving end of one of her bat-boogey hexes. I've seen what happens and it is not a pretty sight. As much as you deserve it, it's painful to watch," Blaise said.

"No, taking a bludger to the face is painful," Draco said.

I pushed past Pansy and over to Draco.

"I'm so sorry," I said taking his hand. "It wasn't meant to hit you."

Draco held my hand back.

"Guys, give us some space," Draco said.

Everyone walked out of the hospital.

"We'll catch you later," Angelina said.

"Maybe you'll listen to me now," Ginny said.

She and Angelina left the room.

I turned back to Draco.

"I'm so sorry," I said again.

"It's fine Love," he said. "There's no more bruising, nothing broken just a lot of pain. . . A lot of pain."

"It's not alright. I hit you with a bludger. You don't do that to people you care about," I said.

"Hannah, it was an accident. I mean, did you mean to hit me with the bludger?" Draco asked.

"Of course not," I said.

"Then it doesn't matter," he said. "You could accidentally hit me with a bludger a million times and every time I would forgive you and not care. If you're really feeling awful about it then just consider it me getting my just deserts for 'Weasley is Our King'."

I sat down on the bed next to him.

"I suppose that's fair," I said lightheartedly.

"You had a brilliant strategy that our beaters would have never thought of in a million years," Draco said.

"That's because your beaters are Crabbe and Goyle," I pointed out.

"I'm trying to ignore that fact," Draco said. "Sure you're not the best flier but you're a fantastic beater and you're a good addition to the team."

"Well that doesn't change the fact that I don't like to play Quidditch. Especially if I'm going to be knocking people unconscious," I said.

"But don't you know, that's what a beater is supposed to do," Draco said.

"Well I don't plan on making a habit of it," I said.

"Thought I might find you in here," a voice from the door said. Hermione made her way over to Draco and me.

"Granger," Draco said. "Come to watch me squirm in pain?"

"No actually. For once I'm not," she said. She handed him a vial with a shimmering blue liquid. "I need Hannah and I know she's not going to leave for as long as you're in here."

Draco took the vial from her.

"What is it?" Draco asked.

"It's a very powerful, super effective pain reliever," Hermione said.

"Where'd you get it?" Draco asked.

Hermione smirked.

"Well let's just I've got some friends in low places," Hermione said.

Draco drank down the potion. A moment later he smiled.

"Well what do you know Granger you're not completely useless," Draco said. Hermione's eyes narrowed.

"Loser," she said.

Draco flinched in pain.

"What the hell was that?" he asked. Hermione shrugged. Draco's eye narrowed. "Say that again."

"What? Loser?" Hermione asked.

Draco flinched again.

"You did do something. What did you do?" Draco asked.

Hermione shrugged.

"Hermione, is this an equivalent exchange potion?" I asked.

"Yes. You get your pain relief and I get my kicks watching you squeal in pain every time someone says loser."

"Ow! Stop it," Draco said.

"Sorry that last one was unintentional," Hermione said. "But now you know. For the next four hours anytime people say the 'L' world when you hear them, you'll feel pain."

"You're friends with a spiteful, malicious little girl," Draco said climbing out of bed.

"Thank you," Hermione said. I rolled my eyes. There was always evil behind their every act of kindness towards each other.

I walked into the corridor. Kristen rushed past. She looked upset at something.

"What's up with her?" Draco asked.

"I don't have a clue," I said.

In The Common Room

"I haven't seen Harry since the match," Ron said. He looked bothered at something. "He's been leaving and coming back and forth all week. He won't tell me where he's going."

"Oh Won-Won," a sweet voice from behind him said. He started to slam his head repeatedly onto the table.

Lavender walked over to him and placed a hand on his shoulder.

"These girls bothering you?" she asked.

"Someone's bothering me but it's not my friends," Ron said.

"Then tell me who it is and your Lav-Lav will take care of it," Lavender continued.

"No one," he said.

"Alright. Cheer up then Won-won. I've gotten you something for being such a good keeper." Lavender pulled Ron from his seat and dragged him upstairs.

"I'm glad Draco and I don't have pet names for each other," I said.

"Yes you do," Hermione said. "But you use them so much that you realize when you do it."

"Really?" I asked.

"Yeah. He calls you 'Love' and you call him 'Babe.' The reason we never said anything because unlike 'Won-Won' and Lav-Lav,' it's not vomit inducing."

"I'll have to keep that in mind," I said.

The common room door opened and in marched a melancholy Harry. He laid down on the couch and stared up at the ceiling Something had happed. I and Hermione went over to him.

"Hey Harry what happened?" Hermione asked. Harry sighed and rolled over on his side.

"I don't want to talk about it," he said. Hermione rubbed his shoulder.

"Come on you can tell us," I said.

Harry sighed again.

"It's over," he said.

"What's over?" Hermione asked.

"Kristen and I. . . It's over. . ."
