By Amber Levox

He knew the answer but just wanted to strike up a conversation. Ron nodded his head. He was still picturing Amber walking over to him and kissing him on the cheek. Ron and Harry walked up to the boy's dorms and fell asleep.When everybody wokeup they went to breakfast. After, Amber ran over to the notice board in the common room."Quiddicth try-outs.""Harry are you gonna try out for seeker again? asked Ron. "I'm banned forever remember?" Harry said with a sad face." But Umbridge isn't here and I'm sure Dumbledore would let you." Ron said promising." Sure, I'll try." " Ron, What are you? asked Amber." Keeper." Harry was Seeker. Remember I told you everything last night." "Yeah I remember.I'm goning to try out for Chaser." Amber said excitedly.Ron smiled at Amber ans she smiled back." Come on you three we're going to be late for Transfiguration!" Hermione snapped. Seo had herbolgy first . "Now for your first lesson we will be transforming a feather into a bird.Simply say: Waggy-birdo! "Pick a partner and start transforming on my count to three. Hermione picked amber before Ron could even choose. " Great, the two smart ones as partners and the two who don't know anything for partners!" Ron said with a sigh." One, two, three! " Professor Mcgonagall yelled." Waggy- Birdo! Amber yelled and pointed her wand at the feather.The class did the same.'It worked!" she screeched.Minerva walked about the class poniting at what they did wrong and congradulated them if right.Ron and Harry actually got it right on the 1st try. As soon as Transfiguration was over it was the quiddicth try- outs for Gryffindors.Hermione didn't want to waste her time watching the try- outs so she went and praticed Waggy- birdo with Neville Longbottom. Ron was already at the Quidditch Stadium with his Firebolt 3000.Harry and Seo had their brooms and was walking down the path to the Stadium.Amber was busy polishing her Firebolt 3000. Amber came running outside toward the Quiddicth stadium with her broom in her hand.Seo,Harry and Ron were there by the time Amber came." Sorry, I forgot the time.Am I too late?" Amber asked taking breaths."No, you right on time" said Angelina the Captain of the team.Ron also tried out for chaser.Amber tried out for chaser and seeker.Harry tried for seeker.Seo tried out for keeper."You all did mighty great and I'll let you know either today or tomorrow if you got the postion." said Angelina with a smile.Ron. Amber,Harry and Seo went into the great hall for lunch.Suddenly the heard tons of hoots and howls." Ail's ere." said Ron with his mouth full of food.Amber hits Ron in the arm." Ow." Ron said while rubbing his arm.After the feast the 4 friends went to the common room.Seo ran over to the notice board." Hogmeade trip this weekend." she read aloud."Congratulations you lot." Angelina said. Everyone spun around." Harry you are the seeker,Seo ur a keeper, Ron chaser congrats, and Amber you're a chaser too." "Well who's the beaters?asked Harry. " Ginny and Alicia.They're all we got and the best.Practice starts this weekend so you'll be missing Hogmeade Trip." "One problem, I don't have a broomstick." amber said quietly looking down."Don't you ever wander around the school? They have school brooms Amber." said Seo.Amber nodded and smiled. Everyone went to their common rooms and fell fast alseep."First lesson today is potions...with Slytherin." Amber said."Stupid Slytherins and we have Snape too!" complained Ron."Lucky us! Harry and I have muggle studies!Seo yelled."Since when do you Harry take muggle studies? You should know everything about them by now."Ron snapped."It's better than taking potions anytime." said harry with a grin."W-What do you mean?"" In the 6th year you don't have to take potions anymore.I'm surprised you didn't know." said Seo.Ron and Amber started out the door and ran to Mcgonagall's office.Seo and Harry shared a laugh."Sorry to bother you Professor but does 6th years need to take potions? asked Amber. " No, they don't. Why are you asking?" " Well you see Professor Amber and I didn't know so we signed up for potions when we don't need too." said Ron. " What class do you want then Mr. Weasley?" Muggle Studies" they both said in uinson."Very well.Your class is starting in 1 hour.Ron and Amber walked back to the common room holding hands." We're now in Muggle Studies! Amber bragged.Harry and Seo smiled at the pair." We better head off to class." said Seo. The four walked off to the Muggle Studies classroom.They were learning the jobs of muggles.After class the pairs went to lunch."I wonder who's leading the win to the house cup?" Amber asked." Don't know I think Hufflepuff." said Harry.The next class was Herbology." Amber and Rob barely made it out of Muggle Studies.They both fell asleep in class." Seo was telling Hermione."They'll regret it I tell you." Hermione said." Now class we will learn about Devil's Snare today.Devil's Snare can easily kill and harm you." Professor Sprout was telling the class.They had Herbology with Slytherin. Draco came up to Ron and Amber." Well if it isn't wigged Weasley."Oh and who is this girl? Draco said eyeing every movement." Why don't you can you mouth Malfoy?Ron said Harshly.Draco didn't even pay attention to ron.He was looking at Amber. She was looking down to the ground." Draco Malfoy. What's such a pretty girl like you hanging around with Potter and Weasley?" That's it! He's dead I tell you Dead!ron whispered.At that exact moment Ron threw a good punch at Malfoy.He fell to the ground with a hard blow. " Ronald Weasley detention Now!! yelled Sprout running over to Draco." Amber take him to the hospital wing. Your the one who he was talking to." Amber nodded.Ron was walking down to Professor Mcgonagall's office.He knew he shouldn't have done it. Hee knocked. " Come in." He walked in with a guilty look on his face." What are you here for boy?" she asked.

" Detention for punching Draco." he said." It's all my fault. I should've stopped Ron! "Amber was thinking.Ron was sitting in Mcgonagall's office doing work. She took 10 house points away from Gryffindor.Amber had already taken Draco to Madam Pomfrey's.Ron came back 3 hours later.Amber was in the common room.Ron walked in and slumped down in the chair. " Your back!!Look i'm sorry I got you into this mess." she said."Amber, it's not your fault.I should've controlled myself.Ron said looking down."Well let's just forget it.okay?" Amber said. Ron nodded.He was really tired." Well, I need some sleep so I'll see you tomorrow okay?" Yeah course. Night Ron.".""Night Am."Ron walked off to the boy's dorms.Amber just stared into the bright yellow fire.Ron woke up and walked into the common room to find a sleeping Amber laying on the couch."Oh Amber." Ron whispered.She was laying there so peacefully."Ron, what are you doing in the girl's dormritries?" she asked sleepily."You fell asleep on the couch last night."he said."Oh."she laughed."Well I'm going to get dressed."" Okay. I'll wait for you.said Ron smiling.After Amber got dressed the two walked down to the great hall for breakfast.They sat down by Harry,and Seoling."Hey, you sleepyheads."said Seo."I was so tired I fell asleep on the couch in the common room.Everybody laughed."Well we heard about your little incident with Malfoy yesterday.Harry eyed Ron."Speaking of the lil devil."Seo muttered.Draco was walking over to the Gryffindor table. He had 1 black eye." Ron, don't lose your cool this time." Amber whispered to him." You made a huge mistake yesterday Weasley."Draco snapped."Oh did I really Malfoy?he said." How about a rematch after classes?" "Ron no!!" yelled Amber."Whoever wins gets the girl." draco said."Please Ron!I'm not worth getting into a fight with and then getting in trouble for! she yelled tring to convince him."How about it Weasley? Or you scared I'll beat you?"said Draco."Come on Am. Let's go." Ron ignored Malfoy and walked off with Amber."Your really brave you know?" she said as the wind blown in her face."You told me remember?""Oh Yeah." she said as she laughed a little."I'm sorry if I have gotten you into trouble.""The only trouble I have is the trouble that I'm falling in love."Amber smiled.Ron and Amber walked silently back to common room.When they got their Harry and Seo were yelling at each other and Seo was crying."What's wrong?" asked Amber sitting down."Lavendar!" Seo said balling."What happened?" Ron asked curiously running over to her."She's she's dead!Harry yelled.Amber and Ron's mouths were wide open."W-what happened? Ron asked looking down."Harry Could've stopped her too!! She went looking for something and got killed!! The black haired girl said.

!!"It wasn't my fault!! She can make her own decisions!!She knew what the risks were.yelled Harry. Ron was heartbroken. He liked Lavendar.He never told anyone.Not even Harry.Amber didn't say a word .She was just looking down at the floor. "Harry!It's over!!" Se yelled as she ran to the girl's dorms.Amber ran after her but Ron grabbed her hand. "She needs time Amber.Let her be."he said softly. Harry sat down on couch.Amber nodded and sat down by the fire."I'm going to bed." she said and left.They was moments of dead silence."You liked Lavendar didn't you? asked Harry. "How did you know?asked Ron." Just a lucky guess.""I'm sorry about what happened with Seoling." said Ron. "It's okay.We'll get back together.Harry said in a confindent voice.Ron and Harry went to the dorms and fell asleep.Ron was still upset about Lavendar.He totally forgot about Amber.They all met in the great hall.Seo was still not talking to Harry." Ron, want to go to quidditch match with me?" Amber said happily."No Okay."At that point Ron ran off."He's in a bad mood today." said Harry.Seo:: "Today is Hufflepuff against Ravenclaw.""Well he doesn't need to take it out on people.she said.Amber walked off with Seoling to the quidditch match.Harry did the same.
