Chapter 3: The Beginning

Author's note: disclaimers to all these characters except Lindze. I luv you Unison child of doom!!!!!! You're my first review! Please r/r!!!!!!!!!!! And I know this chapter is short. I'll update soon!!!!!!

          The week went by in a blur for Lindze. She was a Gryffindor like she hoped and had a few more run-ins with Malfoy. One fight got so rough that he ended up with a mini skirt and tank-top on once. Everyone in the school now knows who she is from their famous fights. She seemed to be more powerful than Malfoy so everyone wondered why he kept coming for more. One day a couple of days after Malfoy's fashion show in Herbology he went as childish as taking her notebook and not giving it back for the rest of the period.

          "When will he leave me alone!!!" lindze yelled at no one in particular.

          "That's Malfoy for you, never gives up. In our third year Hermione even went as far as slapping him across the face. He was embarrassed but still hasn't stopped his teasing," Harry replied after Lindze's outburst. They went to common room and saw two new post ups on the corkboard.

One read:

          "Attention all third years and above! A costume ball is coming up on Halloween! This is the time to show off your creativity for the Costume contest. First prize winners get tickets to the next World Cup! So come dressed to impress

          Thank you,  Prof. McGonagall

          "That's great!" Ron exclaimed, already turning the wheels in his head on how to ask Lindze to the Ball. He thought no one knew about his crush on her and nobody wouldn't have if he wasn't so obvious, opening doors for her and the constant whispering to Harry. Hermione noticed the most though.

          "Yeah, I think I'll ask Lavender this time," Harry responded. The both turned to see what the girls thought of it but they were reading the second announcement already:

          "Anybody who is interested in being seeker for our own Gryffindor team then please report to prof. McGonagall immediately."

          "You should do it Ron!" Hermione exclaimed. "You always wanted to be on the team."

          "Only if Lindze tried out to." Ron smirked at her.

          "Yeah, sure," was the only reply he got though since her and Harry were in a deep conversation on how he was made seeker in his first year.

          'Yeah yeah yeah. It's always about the great Harry Potter," Ron thought to himself.
