Mackenzie liked around as the Gryffindor team flew onto the pitch. Laughing at her roommates doing a very good impression of jumping beans.

"Mackenzie get into it!" Parvarti yelled gleefully as she smiled as the house team pulled up to Madam Hooch.

"Parvarti get a grip!" Mackenzie smile back as the game began in earnest.

Mackenzie didn't know where to look around the pitch. Slytherin were playing dirty as per usual and Gryffindor were still beating them.

"What's the score?" Mackenzie asked confused as Lavender looked enraptured at the pitch so Parvarti answered for her.

"Slytherin 70, Gryffindor 90" as the Seekers started to dive.

"Wronski Feint!" Mackenzie hissed as she noticed the intense concentration on Harry's face as he sped toward the earth with the trailing Slytherin eating his dust. Parvarti looked at her shocked.

"How can you tell?" she asked just as Harry pulled out of the dive

"The concentration evident on his face," she shrugged as Parvarti gapped at her as Gryffindor scored another goal

"The Snitch looks to have been sighted!" the commentator, a Colin Creevey if Mackenzie recalled properly as both Seekers flattened themselves against their brooms and accelerated. Mackenzie started at he look of sheer determination on the face of the Gryffindor Seeker grabbing Parvarti's arm as she looked at Mackenzie who stared at Harry. Yelling along with the crowed Lavender, Parvarti and Mackenzie gripped the railing leaning over as if to get a better view. Seeing Harry curl his fingers around the shining object Mackenzie smiled and continued to jump around with the rest of the house as Madam Hooch blew her whistle.

"Gryffindor 250, Slytherin 70!" was heard just barely over the roar of the stadium.

being swept along in the crowd Mackenzie noticed Harry looking lost. Walking up to the dazed boy she looked concerned.

"Are you ok?" she asked as Harry looked into her eyes filled with emotion

"Harry!" Hermione called as she waved over at the both of them as she dragged Ron along with her.

"Mate that was some game, perfect Feint!" Ron said clapping him on the back with his free hand.

"Thanks," Harry replied quietly as Mackenzie sighed

"Time to celebrate!" Hermione chirped as the three turned toward Mackenzie she blushed

"Did you want something else?" Harry asked she shook her head and brushed past them to the castle berating herself as she turned around,

"Harry,"

"Yes?" he asked confused as Mackenzie looked shocked at her boldness.

"Are you crazy?" she asked then turned around and fled remembering the last time she had asked that.

"Idiot!" she whispered as she climbed through the portrait entrance nearly smacking her head on the top of it. Glancing around at the party in the common room she smiled warmly at the other two girls in her year as they waved her over to them as he trio walked in, Harry with his happy mask firmly in place Mackenzie noticed as she pleaded a headache and fled to the quiet of the seventh year girls' dorm.

Groaning to herself she walked into the bathroom and slammed on the water as hot as she could and steamed up the mirrors as tears fell down her face, robes soaked and stuck to her skin. Shutting off the water after awhile she wiped a hand at the mirror her face red and puffy. Parvarti walked into the room as a fresh wave of tears fell and sobs wracked her body and she curled on the floor soaking wet.

"Mackenzie?" Parvarti asked quietly unsure of what to do. She said nothing as she sat leaning against the wall barely acknowledging the other girl as she looked far away from the cold tiles of the Hogwarts bathroom. Parvarti looked on worried as Mackenzie shook in the cold room unable to help her.

"Parvarti?" Hermione called as she looked at Mackenzie bewildered

"I don't know what wrong with her, she not telling me anything," she started shaking unable to stop. Hermione looked in at the silent girl, looking ghostly with her hair plaster to her face.

"Mackenzie, are you ok?" Hermione looked calm

"He hates me doesn't he?" she asked like a little girl as she pushed her hair off of her face.

"Who hates you?" Hermione asked gently as the other got up and water pooled at her feet.

"No one don't you worry," giving a watery smile she shrugged and turned to the mirror.

"Are you okay?" Hermione looked on as Mackenzie shrugged out of her outer robes and looked at her reflection.

"I'm fine, tired and all do ill get to bed soon," she sighed

"What happened?" Mackenzie sighed as Hermione looked on placidly

"Tell you later okay?" Hermione nodded her head in agreement
