Daily Prophet
HARRY POTTER picked first overall in the weekends Quidditich Draft, by Puddlemore United! Look inside for more on the draft.
Inside: Harry Potter was the first of many from his house Quidditich team selected by Puddlemore. Plus the United already have to ex-Gryffindor team members, Keeper and Captain, Oliver Wood and Chaser Katie Bell. After Potter Puddlemore selected Chaser, Neville Longbottom, Beaters: Dean Thomas and Seamus Finnegan, and lastly Chaser, Hermione Granger- the unknown of the group. It has been speculated that she will not continue Quidditich. The other eligible member of the Gryffindor team, Keeper, Ronald Weasley was selected fifth overall by the Chudley Cannons. One scout said that: "This crop from Hogwarts Gryffindor house is among the best in years."
When Hermione read this she yelled in delight.
"What's the matter, Hermione?" Her mother asked.
"Just some great news, I'm going to visit a friend, give him the news, alright?"
"Yeah, who?"
"Harry, he was selected first by Puddlemore, Ron has probably already been to visit the Cannons, they picked him fifth."
"Why wouldn't Harry know, yet?"
"He doesn't particularily like the Prophet. And I was picked too."
"Are you going to play?"
"Yeah, I think I will, for at least a few years."
"See you later then, dear."
"Bye, mum, love you."
"Bye, honey, love you too."
And with a pop Hermione was at Sirius's front door. She knocked. "Hermione, what are you doing here?"
"Have you seen the Prophet?"
"No, why?"
"Harry was picked first by Puddlemore."
"Really! Let me see." He grabbed the paper and read it.
"I'm going up to see, Harry."
"Uh-huh," Sirius answered immersed in the paper.
Hermione dashed up the stairs and into Harry's room and jumped on his bed, "Harry, Harry, wake up, I have wonderful news."
"What is it, what are you doing here?" He asked as he put on his glasses.
"You, me, Neville, Dean, and Seamus were picked by Puddlemore, and Ron was picked by the Cannons."
"Really, he must be ecstatic," and he pulled her into a kiss.
"So must Oliver."
"He's Captain, isn't he?"
"Yeah, and five members of his team retired."
"Are you going to play?"
"Of coarse, shall we visit the team?"
"Maybe later, let's hang out here for awhile first."
Around three, an owl flew in Harry's window and dropped him a letter.
"Who's it from, Harry?" Hermione asked.
"Puddlemore, tomorrow they want draft picks to come at around eleven, you probably have one at home."
"I think I'll pop home and get it, tell them I'm staying at a friends, how do I look?"
"A little disheveled, there's a brush on the dresser."
"Thanks, love you, see you in a bit," Hermione said after quickly brushing her hair and popping home. Hermione ran downstairs and said, "Mum, did I get an owl from Puddlemore?"
"Yes, here it is."
"Thanks Mum, I'm going to spend the night at a friends tonight, and visit Puddlemore tomorrow."
"Have a good time, bye."
Harry and Hermione went to Puddlemore, the next day, Tuesday, signed contracts, and found an apartment on Wednesday. The next day will be Thursday, dinner with the parents.
That's as far as I'll go now, next will be dinner with the parents, and who knows what else, any suggestions? I finished Order of the Phoenix, this morning, round two. I have a bit of an idea for a sixth year story. But I'll try to finish this and innocent first. Thanks for all the reviews.-ears91
