Here's the next chapter!
"Okay this is seriously freaking me out." Thomas Maine whispered to James Palay.
"Yeah really." Jeremy Print agreed.
"He's being much too" Danny began.
"Nice, pleasant, happy" David added.
"In other words not our freakishly strict"
"Serious dear ole Ollie."
"Bloody hell he's even laughing at Cody" Danny blinked in confusion.
"Instead of reprimanding him on goofing off." David finished just as equally confused.
"I hate it when you two do that." James said rubbing his neck from looking at one twin then the other.
Oliver didn't care that he was really freaking his teammates out, he was just so happy he could've yelled to the sky that he was falling for a certain famous female. But he restrained himself. It would not be so such a good idea, considering he still had the show to finish but it didn't matter. He already found out who he wanted to have that chance with and he unfortunately owed it all to an idiotic show. Plus the stupid press.
Hermione was listening to her iPod while she read her book. Just as Hermione was about ten pages until the end, a spoon hit her book. Hermione took off her ear phones just in time to hear a whizzing sound before silverware went flying towards her. Hermione ducked just in time before a fork pierced her. Hermione watched wide eyed as a butter knife was headed her way. "Immobulus." Hermione yelled as she whipped her wand out and froze all the flying silverware before another could come at her. All the silverware was suspended in mid air then they all fell making a loud thump.
Rianne, Gerry, and Alicia all came running in as they were in the kitchen when all the sudden, the drawer where all the silverware was opened up and silverware started to fly.
"Hermione, what happened?" Rianne asked as she got closer.
"I don't know." Hermione answered.
"Are you hurt?" Gerry asked as they all hugged Hermione.
"No I'm fine. Just took me by surprise one second I was reading, next a spoon hit my book and more silverware is flying towards me."
"Thank god this thing didn't get you." Alicia said as she picked up a large knife. It was as big as a butcher's knife.
"That's just frightening." Rianne said taking the words right out of Hermione's mouth.
"Oh my god this is like the second time something like this has happened. First was this morning when you got locked in the shower. Now flying silverware!" Gerry said freaking out.
"Wait so we get to be on the show judging the girls twice?!" James asked excited.
"Yes. And please don't make me regret it."
"Oh we won't Cappie." Cody said.
"Cormac!" Oliver yelled.
"Well this stinks that I can't join. My family's having a reunion. Ugh." Thomas said.
"Who do you think is trying to ax Hermione?" Gerry asked.
"I don't know. I mean Taty's gone." Rianne said.
"But she has minions." Alicia pointed out.
"Oh bloody hell. I highly doubt she's trying to kill me. Maybe it was just a fluke." Hermione reasoned.
"Well then let's eat lunch." Rianne said.
Three days went by before Hermione and Oliver had yet to see each other again. Though they did owl each other plenty of times and learned much about each other. Their likes and dislikes. What made the other tick. Hermione hated when people wrote in textbooks, Oliver hated when players cheated in quidditch.
Hermione had thought it was pretty funny. Here she used to hear all the jokes abut how Oliver would marry Quidditch if it was a girl. But once she thought about it they probably probably also thought that if Hogwarts a History was a guy she would marry it. The whole thing was a bit hysterical really. It was like they were a match in heaven sort of. When she had owled it to Oliver he almost cried from laughing so hard.
Hermione was still in the shower so Gerry threw the covers off and opened the door. She looked down and saw Rinny with a letter. "Hello Rinny."
"Hello Miss Gerry. Rinny here to deliver a letter for misses."
"Thank you Rinny."
"Welcome Miss Gerry."
Gerry gently closed the door. She opened the letter to read the contents.
Hermione stepped out of the bathroom minutes later in a robe. "Hey what are you reading?" She asked as she dried her hair with the towel.
"The instructions for today's show. It says here to dress sporty." Gerry said.
"Dress sporty?" Hermione asked to be sure.
"Yeah, dress sporty."
"Hey did you guys get the letter?" Alicia asked barging in seconds later.
Hermione came down in a pair of old jean shorts, a aquamarine spaghetti strap shirt and a sleeveless white zip up jacket.
Gerry had on a pair of black shorts. A long yellow sports bra and a short sleeved black jacket.
Alicia and Rianne were dressed just as similarly with a jacket and shorts ensemble. Each had on a pair of sneakers. They all also had their hair in a high ponytail cutesy of Rianne.
"I don't know why I agreed with you guys to dress like this." Hermione muttered.
"Because we would've hidden your books so well you couldn't even Accio them." Alicia said.
"Plus look cute and a lot less trashy than some of the other girls here." Gerry whispered.
"Gerry!" Rianne and Hermione exclaimed.
"What! Look around."
Hermione looked around at some of the other girls. One of them, Daisy had on a bright pink sports bra and a pair of black volleyball shorts. Another girl had on a pair of leopard print shorts and a black stretch top that stopped just before her belly button. One girl had a pair of yoga pants and a tight white tee shirt with a visible red lace bra.
All the girls found themselves once again in the carriage though this time it was much less crowded as there were a lot less girls this time.
"What do you guys think is going on?" One of the girls, Trista asked.
"With Oliver. I bet you its quidditch. " Alicia answered.
And indeed it was as the girls discovered when they came out of the carriage to find themselves on the Puddlemere pitch. A foot away, Oliver Wood was standing there along with his teammates all with brooms and helmets in hand.
"Today we will be playing a calmer game of quidditch." Oliver said. "There will only be one bludger in the game. Each team will have four of us" Oliver pointed to him and his teammates. "On your team. You will pick from a hat that will determine which team you are on. Either team one or team two."
Once again Rinny came around with a top hat. Each girl picked either a number one or two from the hat.
Hermione, Alicia, and Rianne each had team two. Gerry had team one.
"Oh that's just bloody unfair!" Gerry cried.
Oliver and some of the guys smothered a laugh at Gerry's cry. "Once you have your number, put the number on any part of your clothing and press. It will magically show itself on your clothing. It only lasts an hour so do not worry about it ruining any clothing."
Hermione helped Gerry press her number into the back of her jacket and vice versa. So did Alicia and Rianne.
Daisy was unfortunately having a hard time finding a place to put her number.
Hermione after a few minutes took pity on her. "Daisy here, just take my jacket. We're on the same team anyway." She said taking off her jacket
Daisy stared speechless. "Thank you." She said before taking Hermione's white jacket and handing her the number.
"Your welcome." Hermione said.
Oliver was trying hard not to look at Hermione. He had seen the airing of the show. The camera captured him staring at her many times. Watching the show made him realize how fast he was starting to fall for Hermione Granger. It was almost frightening. And worst of all, other people were all watching it too and most probably noticed how attracted he was to Hermione Granger.
"Does everyone have a number?" Oliver asked.
All the girls said yes.
"The judges this time around will be my teammates. They will judge you based on your enthusiasm, and your sportsmanship. So don't worry if you can't really play. I just want you all to have fun and enjoy the game like I do. Quidditch is a big part of my life and I want the person that I end up with to understand and maybe even join in if it's possible." Oliver said trying his hardest not to look at Hermione.
Team one consisted of Oliver playing keeper, James as chaser, along with Gerry and Trista. Jeremy was a beater with Pru the only red headed Scot. Last was Nina whom was the seeker but also happened to be Taty's best friend.
Team two consisted of Rianne as Keeper, The Doyle twins and of course Alicia as chaser. Cody was beater along with Daisy, while Hermione was the seeker.
"Oh god I'm scared." Rianne muttered as she took the broom and helmet. Gerry did the same.
Alicia grabbed a broom but didn't bother with a helmet. "You guys will be fine." She insisted.
"Good luck Gerry." Hermione said hugging her nervous friend.
"Why aren't you grabbing a helmet?" Gerry asked just noticing.
"Cause as seeker you need to be able to move your head fast. But also I've had a little bit of practice when Harry, Ron, and the others dragged me into a game, when they were a player short." Hermione shrugged.
"Ugh I repeat so not fair. But hey I know were're not on the same team but if you can please kick Nina's butt. Hate her almost as much as I did Taty." Gerry said before heading to her team.
"The reserve team will be our referees so play fair but most of all have fun." Oliver said before everyone shot up in the air.
