The quidditch season was right around the corner and the Gryffindor team was practicing harder than ever. Every night of the week they had a practice. Wood was frantic.
"He's losing it!" cried Fred, the evening practice before the first game.
"I know, I can't even finish my school work," said George with a sigh.
"Like you were going to anyway."
"Hey! I was going to get to it!"
"Team! We're getting really good. I can see us winning the cup this year, not to mention beat Ravenclaw for the first game." Wood called everyone over.
"By the way, who did they get for the chaser position?" asked Harry.
"That blonde first year," Wood was looking really crabby at this decision. "I think her name is Reilly. Reilly Flanagan. You know Fred, that one that I said I hope they don't pick."
Fred nodded. If Wood thought that she would do well on the first day and now Ravenclaw picked her, she was probably really good.
"So, that means that I need you three," he looked at Angelina, Katie, and Alicia. "To be prepared and I want some good defense. I want to see a lot of goals and a lot of interceptions. Alright?"
The three girls gave him a look of determination.
"Great! I'll see you all tomorrow, bright and early at breakfast." Wood walked off the field with a little spring in his step. The team followed.
The next morning the Great Hall was filled with the excited chatter that lead to a quidditch game. The whole team was quietly eating bits of their breakfast. They stared at their food waiting until Wood called them. In what seemed like a short amount of time, they were all in the locker room waiting to be called out. The red light above the doors to the field blinked on and they were off.
"And here is the Gryffindor team!" yelled Lee Jordan. "Keeper and captain, Oliver Wood; Chasers Angelina Johnson, Alicia Spinnet, and Katie Bell; beaters Fred and George Weasley; and Seeker Harry Potter!" The stands erupted as the team did a flying circle of the field. The Ravenclaw team was already on the side of the field in discussion. Wood had the team land and wait for Madam Hooch.
"Now I want a nice, clean game. On my whistle, BEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPP!"
"The teams are off! Ravenclaw newcomer, Reilly Flanagan in possession of the quaffle. Boy, that girl can ride." Lee Jordan yelled. "She makes it over to the Gryffindor goal posts, shoots, and oh, is blocked by Keeper Oliver Wood." The Gryffindor stands cheered. "Gryffindor has the quaffle and there goes Alicia Spinnet. She's making her way to the Ravenclaw posts and, SCORES!" The Gryffindor fans clapped and yelled. "There goes Harry Potter into a spectacular dive, clearly he's seen something. Cho Chang following. Potter's hand is out, he's getting close to the ground, he better watch out, and. oh no, the Snitch takes off." The stands sighed.
"Fred! Look out!" George yelled.
Fred looked around and saw a bludger coming straight at him. He dove to the right and just made it. The bludger zoomed past heading for a Ravenclaw.
"And that was a close one by Fred Weasley. And oh, here goes Potter again, this time moving up and boy, that broom is going fast, he's almost there and.HE'S GOT IT! Gryffindor wins! What a game, what a short game." The stands exploded.
The teams landed and Harry was mobbed. The Gryffindor team shook hands with the Ravenclaws. Gryffindors were hugging and cheering and jumping around. Fred made his way over to Angelina and she hugged him. They pulled away and seemed to be all by themselves, and then Fred bent down and kissed Angelina. There lips meet and she kissed him back. As they pulled away she smiled and they left to cheer with their team.
Oh yeah, Fred thought to himself with a smile.
