Chapter 10  Qudditch Try Outs

Even as Harry set up chairs and got extra broom sticks for the Gryffindor keeper try outs the other nights events were still lingering in his mind. He had fallen asleep-in his bed, with Cho in his arms after she had had I horrible night mere about at witch standing over her with a pair of scissors. Of course they did nothing, but it would be hard explaining that to a teacher and why she was even there in the first place. He woken up in the morning with a note tucked in his hand. It said:

I deiced to get up early and sneak back to my dorm

See ya at breakfast

                   Love Cho

But even if she did wake with him she still would have been able to get back in her dorm because professor McGonagall had told him and the other qudditch team members to get up very early that Friday to prepare for the try-outs. They had all slumped down to the field levitating tables and chairs and carrying broomsticks.

"Why you so quiet Harry?" asked Fred

"Just tired" he said

"Yeah me too…" said George and Alicia.

 The tryouts were being held from 10:30 to 12:00 and at later that night the results would be announced.

Harry hoped it wouldn't take long because he wanted to go to care for magical creatures early to see Hagrid and maybe what they were going to be caring for. By the time they finished setting up it was 9:45 and they saw professor McGonagall making her way down to the qudditch field.

"Get ready! Soon some people will becoming!." She said sitting down next to them.

Over the next hour they saw nearly everybody in gryffindor come down and try out. Ron did a pretty good job and so did Dean, but the most amazing person was-Neville. They thought he had come down at watch but he even had his own broom. Not even one of the bewitched qwaffles went through the hoop.

By the time he landed everybody was in shock.

"Alright Neville!" said Fred

"Gosh if that really is Neville then he has a better chance then me!" said Ron going over to congratulated him

But Harry just sat there in shock, something didn't seem quite right.

An hour later Harry and the others raced up to the great hall for breakfast, after grabbing something to eat, he raced up to the dorm to get his books. He walked into the 5 years room and Neville cat was sitting on his bed.

"Get off!" yelled Harry pushing if off the bed. But just then Crookshanks came running into the room hissing as spitting. Neville's cat hissed and then ran out the door as Harry grabbed his stuff. "Stupid cats.." he muttered walking out the door.

As Harry walked toward Hagrids cabin he saw Cho a little ways in front of him.

"Cho!" he called. She automatically stopped and raced towards him.

"Good morning!" she said kissing him on the lips lightly.

"Good morning, get back to your dorm easily this morning?" he asked

"Yeah, no problem!" she said but then she stopped and looked in to his eyes, and leaned her head on his shoulder.

"Um thanks for last night… I'm sorry…I know it must have been hard to um.. Well with a girl in your bed.. Thanks for comforting me. I'm sorry..I know it must have been a pain"

Harry looked at her, shocked.

"Cho, your not a pain" he said hugging her tightly. " I love you and I would do anything to help you, and I wouldn't even think of er, well..The only thing that was on my mind was to comfort you and make sure you weren't scared any more."

She looked up and had a tear in her eye.

"Oh, Harry..(sniff)…I love you!" she said snuggling against his chest " The way you care about me puts me to tears….. I love you Harry Potter..With all my heart."

Harry ran his fingers through her hair, and kissed her cheek and then her cheekbone all the way up to her lips. He felt her part his lips and let her tongue slip through. He felt his whole body get goose bumps and realized his hand were now on the top hem of her skirt moving downwards…

She let a soft moan escape through her lips as she played with his tongue with her own.

But then Harry realized….

"Cho! We have class!" he yelled

"Ack!" she yelled picking up her bags.

They both ran off toward Hagrids cabin. Everyone was in the back, around what Harry knew were dragon eggs. He and Cho walked over to Ron and Hermione.

"Where were you?" asked Hermione

"Um..We were busy.." said Harry feeling his face turn red.

Ron turned around and cocked his eyebrow.

"We may make out, but we make sure were not late to class." Said Ron

"Ron!" yelled Hormone as Cho giggled slightly.

"Good mornin'!" boomed Hagrid coming around from the other side of the cabin.

"Hello" everybody said

"This year yeh will be taken care of dragons!" said Hagrid pointing toward the eggs

Everybody ohhed and ahhed walking closer to the eggs.

"Ok everybody get in to groups of 4 with at least one 6 year in them" said Hagrid

Naturally Harry Ron Hermione and Cho got into a group.

"Ok when ya have choose your group go out an pick an egg." Said Hagrid

Ron, Harry, Hermione and Cho mover closer to the eggs, and everyone looked at Ron

"Humm that one there is an Norwegian ridge back…that wouldn't be to hard to take care of…. Oh! That ones a Chinese fire ball don't want that one..That ones a Hungarian horntail..No way! Hmm we should get the Norwegian ridge back." Said Ron. Everyone nodded and Hermione bent over and picked it up.

"Pick your eggs wisely will be taken care of them the hole year." Said Hagrid

"THE WHOLE YEAR!!!" very one yelled at once.

"Yup!"
