Really freaky huh? Draco in Gryffindor, that's a sad punishment. I know it's weird, but what can you do when the only magic school in the UK is Hogwarts? You know what they say, if you can beat em', join em'. Besides, his father is in Azkaban, they can't just ditch him. He must've took it hard on himself. Oh well, it's just one year with dementors. Hehe. Anyways, remember December 15 is Alex's birthday? So how does lunch in the QUIDDDITCH FIELD sound??!!! Enjoy!!
Toast to Victory
The next morning, the whole Quidditch Team went to the 3^rd year girl's dormitory to wake up Alex.
"Shhhh!!!" Fred told George.
"I'm not the one who doesn't want to get dressed yet!" George argued as they went up the stairs.
"Shut up you two!" Oliver told them. Harry laughed.
"Shut up Harry." Fred told him. They opened the door slowly and went inside. "Which is her four-poster?" They looked around and Oliver spotted her trunk (AJ). Kris woke up put they told her to be quiet. All the other girls woke up too, they kept quiet too as they watched sitting on their four-posters. Oliver opened the curtains on her four-poster.
She was sleeping on her four-poster so smoothly. Oliver turned his back. "Okay, everyone. On the count of three, one...two..."
"Um Oliver, you oughtta check on Alex first." Kris suggested. Everyone was silent. Oliver turned back. Alex was standing on her four-poster with her arms folded.
"I could hear you from the stairs." Alex said.
"Three?" Oliver said.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!" They all said.
"Thanks." Alex said. Oliver smiled as Alex jumped off her bed. "Next time, try not talking." She looked at everyone. "All of you looked dressed except the girls. What's wrong Fred?" She overheard the twins talking about Fred not being dressed up.
"He didn't want to change." George answered.
"Oh yeah, Happy Belated Birthday Kris! I just remembered that yesterday was your birthday. Hey! You guys aren't even supposed to be in here!" Alex scolded. Everyone hugged Kris apologizing and saying "Happy Belated Birthday". Harry kissed her and hugged her tightly. She turned 13 yesterday.
"You never told me that yesterday was your birthday!" Harry told her.
"I'm sorry." Kris said as she gave him a kiss.
"Yeah, we'll leave." Said Fred as the boys started leaving. Oliver gave Alex a big hug and kissed her.
"Wait for me in the common room okay?" Alex told him.
"Sure." He said as he left the dormitory. Alex showered and got dressed in her normal wear (A tank top with a blue sweater and jeans). She went down to the common room. A couple of people were greeting her with a "Happy Birthday". "So are we going down to breakfast?"
They all went down to breakfast. Of course on Sundays, students didn't really wear robes. Some did, but mostly wore regular clothes. They saw Pansy wearing a hat.
"What's wrong Pansy? Shaved your head?" Kris teased.
"Shut up Mei!" Pansy yelled. Draco ran behind her and pulled out the hat. Everyone gasped and suddenly laughed. Pansy's hair was curly and had colored streaks of green.
"Draco!" Pansy yelled. He threw her hat back at her as she cried going inside the Great Hall. Draco laughed as hard as he could as they all went inside. They all took their seats and ate their breakfast.
"Hey look there at the Ravenclaw table!" Seamus said. Everyone turned to the Ravenclaw table. Cho collapsed. She was overworked after working every night cleaning the corridors.
"She's probably stressed." Hermione said. Everyone agreed. Her friends brought her to the Hospital Wing.
"Hey when are you going to start cleaning?" Harry asked Draco.
"Filch said tomorrow night. I'm getting Christmas Eve, Christmas, and New Year's Eve off." Draco answered. Kris still didn't talk to Draco after what he did. So did the Weasley twins. But Oliver finally talked to him.
"Hey Malfoy." Oliver said.
Draco looked at him. "What?" It was awkward of them talking because after all, it was Draco who wanted revenge.
"What brooms does Slytherin have?" Oliver asked.
"Nimbus Two Thousand and Ones." Draco answered. "Why do you need to know? All of you have way faster brooms than them."
"Just wondering if they have faster brooms." Oliver said.
After breakfast, they went back to the common room. They were just hanging around. Oliver was in his dormitory while everyone else is talking. Draco was sitting in the corner, reading Quidditch Through The Ages.
"Where's Oliver?" Alex asked.
"I think he's up in his dormitory." Fred answered as he was telling jokes with George to the Keys Twins. She ran up the stairs and knocked on the door and went in. Oliver was sitting on his four-poster looking an album.
"What are you looking at?" Alex asked. Oliver looked up and smiled.
"Pictures. Come here and look." He told her. She sat beside him as he wrapped one arm around her waist.
"Hey, these are our pictures when we were kids. There's the picture of you in the first time you were going to Hogwarts." Alex pointed at a moving picture of a young boy in his robes with his trunk, standing next to his mom. "You looked so cute!"
"No way! My hair was so messed up." Oliver said. It really wasn't that messy, it just wasn't fixed well. They turned the pages and there were pictures of their family and more of their childhood.
"Oliver, why are you looking at these?" she asked. Oliver sighed as he lied back on his pillow. Alex lied back beside him.
"I don't know. The year is almost ending. It's been so weird lately, but it's starting to get me thinking. I mean, it's almost Christmas. I only got 6 more months to go. After that, I'm out looking for a job." Oliver said.
"Don't worry about it now, let's just enjoy before anything happens. I'm going to miss you after this year, and it's going to be hard next year. I don't know what to do without you. So let's make the best of it okay?" Alex told him. Oliver nodded. In a few minutes, Alex fell asleep in his arms. And later, he fell asleep too.
"Hey you guys, we're going to have lunch in the Quidditch Field." Harry said.
"Isn't the field closed?" Melanie asked.
"I asked Hagrid to open it for us. He also prepared us some food for us to eat." Hermione added.
"So the whole Gryffindor House is going?" Fred asked.
"No way!" Ron said surprisingly.
"Just the Quidditch Team, and probably some other people. It's not like the whole Gryffindor House can actually be invited!" Harry said.
"Yeah stupid! Think!" George smacked him.
"By the way, where's Oliver and Alex?" Hermione asked.
"Alex went to see Oliver in his dormitory." Fred replied.
"I'll go get her." Kris said as Harry followed her. "What could they be doing for over 3 hours?" she asked as they walked up the stairs.
"Talking maybe." Harry suggested. They knocked on the door. No one answered. They both shrugged and went inside.
"Whoa." Kris said as they saw them sleeping like babies.
"Shhh. They're like babies sleeping." Harry said. "Should we wake them?"
"I don't know. I guess we should since it's lunch time. We have to go down to the Quidditch Field." Kris whispered. Kris woke up Alex and so did Harry to Oliver.
"Whoa. I must've dozed off." Alex said as she rubbed her eyes.
"What time is it?" Oliver asked.
"It's lunch time." Harry answered. Alex noticed she was in Oliver's dormitory.
"Whoa!" she said as she got off the bed. "I'm not even supposed to be here! Shit!"
"Too late to say that now." Kris said. "Come on, let's go down to lunch. Follow us." They followed Kris and Harry hand-in-hand. They went to the common room, and called Fred, George, Melanie, Cristen, the rest of the Quidditch Team, Ron, and Hermione. Oliver noticed Draco sitting alone in the corner.
"Hey, what about him?" Oliver pointed at Draco.
"Do we really have to? After all that he's done, he doesn't deserve to hang with us." Kris said.
"Oh come on Kris. He may have been a Slytherin and I even thought he was a bad and annoying crap. He's just a loner because of his dad." Harry said.
"You're siding with Malfoy?!" Kris argued.
"No! I'm just suggesting that we should give him a chance. Come on Kris." Harry tried to persuade her. She gave him a weird look. And then she nodded. "Hey Malfoy!" he called out. Draco looked up.
"What?" he said.
"Want to go with us to lunch?" Harry asked.
"Looks like your girlfriend doesn't want me there." Draco put his eyes on Kris who was being held back by Harry.
"Come on, it's just lunch." Harry said. Kris let out an obvious sigh. Draco laughed.
"Okay Potter." Draco went with the rest of them. When they got to the Quidditch Field, the gate was open.
"Why are we here?" Oliver asked.
"Is there a Quidditch Match?" Alex asked. Fred and George opened the gate.
"It's just lunch." Kris answered. They entered the field and there were picnic blankets on grass. There was a table filled with food on it. There was a cake in the middle of the table.
"Whoa. You did this?" Alex asked.
"Well...you could say that. With a little help from Hagrid." Harry replied. Hagrid appeared from the gate.
"Oh yeh all here? Anyways, Harry I is everything in place?" Hagrid was looking around.
"Oh yeah it is. Thanks Hagrid." Harry smiled.
"My pleasure Harry." Hagrid gave him one too.
"Why don't you join us Hagrid?" Oliver offered.
"No I can't. All of you can party on, just tell me when yeh' all done." Hagrid said.
"Come on Hagrid. I'm inviting you." Alex said.
"Oh a'right then." Hagrid said. Everyone went to the table getting food. The whole Gryffindor Quidditch Team was there, and some people. People like the Keys Twins, Alicia Spinnet, Katie Bell, Draco Malfoy, Dean Thomas, and Seamus Finnigan. After they all got their food, they all sat on the large picnic blanket. A few minutes after, Oliver stood up with his goblet in his hands.
"Attention everyone!" Oliver called out. They Weasley twins were busy talking to their girlfriends. "I said ATTENTION EVERYONE!" Fred and George turned their heads immediately to Oliver looking innocent. "Okay, thank you. I would like to propose a toast."
Everyone held their goblets in the air. "For Alex, she's a great person, a great chaser, and a great friend to us all. In my case, the best thing that has ever happened to me. And not to forget, for Gryffindor and the Quidditch Finals. That we may win the Cup again this year. We have worked this hard, and we're going to have another trophy under Gryffindor. Cheers!"
"Cheers!" Everyone said as they drank their butterbeer.
"Okay! Cake time!!!" Ron yelled rudely. Hermione pulled on his robe and told him not to do it again.
"Oh yeah. I almost forgot. Come on, off to the cake!" Kris said. They all gathered around the table. Alex and Oliver were standing before the cake.
"Incendio!" Harry said. The 15 candles on the cake were lighted. Alex looked at them for about a minute and blew them out. Everyone clapped. Kris then used her wand and the cake was being sliced magically and given to everyone on plates.
