Fred and George
Chapter 2
Quidditch Tryouts

Summary: Fred and George would never fall head over heals (or off their brooms) over a girl...right?

Disclaimer: If you've clicked on books and then Harry Potter you've read them, right? So you obviously know that the characters belong to J. K. Rowling, right? (they do)

Author's Beginning Note: PsychoticDeath- I was doing like background info in case someone read it who hasn't read the books, like most of my friends.

"Fred and George, will you stop it!" Katie Bell yelled. They were in the middle of Quidditch tryouts, and Fred and George were pretending to fall off their brooms.

"What?" Fred asked innocently, flying over by Katie. "Maybe we'd pay attention if there were any good possibilities here." So far most of the people who auditioned were in their second years and, there was no other way to put it, they stunk. Ron had blocked three goals out of twenty, and he was better than most of the people who turned out to audition.

"Who is that?" George asked as he flew down to meet Fred. Fred turned around and really did fall off his broom. Luckily he was only about four feet from the ground and recovered quickly.

"I never knew Sarah could fly like that!' George said in awe. Fred just stared open-mouthed at Sarah Patlia as she blocked every single goal Alicia, Katie, and Angelina sent at her.
Sarah was a fellow sixth year Gryffindor, but Fred and George had never taken any notice of her before. There wasn't really anything special about her; she wasn't the best in the class, she wasn't the worst in the class; she wasn't a trouble maker, she wasn't miss goody two shoes; she just blended in with the artwork and the other five hundred what not students who attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Sarah finished her audition and everyone cheered for her. She waved shyly; she wasn't used to getting a lot of attention. Some of the other kids who had tried out had already started trudging miserably back up to the castle-they had no chance against her.
Sarah flew down towards the still hopefuls to await the big announcement. Fred, George, Harry, Katie, Alicia, and Angelina all flew to the center of the field.

"I think we know who the new keeper is," said Katie with a grin.

"Oh, I don't know; Colin was good, but I think Sarah might've done a little bit better," said George, also grinning. Alicia began to laugh hysterically.

"It wasn't that funny," said George in bewilderment. Pretty soon the whole team was laughing at Alicia's uncontrollable laughter and the look on George's face-everyone except Katie.

"Will you guys grow up?" she bellowed over the laughter. "We need to decide on a new keeper!"

"Oh yah, sorry Kate," said Fred with tears in his eyes. Both he and George straightened up, pointed their wands at their throats, and muttered Sonorus.

"Ladies and Gentleman-" boomed Fred's voice over the whole stadium.

"Witches and warlocks" said George.

"Men and woman-"

"Girls and boys-"

"We are pleased to announce-"said Fred.

"That the new Gryffindor keeper is-"said George.

"Drum roll please-"

"Sarah Patlia!" shouted Fred with relish.
Both Fred and George pointed their wands at their throats a second time and muttered Quietus.

"Well, we can't just stand here and not congratulate her," said Fred grinning as he watched Sarah trudge up to the castle.

"Of course not!" said George, also grinning. At that the both hopped onto their brooms and sped towards Sarah, landing on either side of her.

"H-hi," she said sheepishly, giving a small start of surprise. Her cheeks flushed lightly.

"Hey," said George.

"Where did you learn how to fly like that?" asked Fred.

"Oh, my dad taught me," she said, feeling more comfortable with every thing they said. "I don't have a great broom though-not like Harry's," she said enviously.

"Oi! Sarah! Hurry up!" yelled Katie and Angelina from the entrance of the castle.

"Bye then," she stammered, and she hurried off, only to be replaced by Alicia.

"Wow," she said.

"Wow what?" asked Fred, still staring at the entrance of the castle where Sarah had disappeared.

"Wow what? How about 'wow, that's the longest you've gone without cracking a joke.' I think you fancy her," Alicia said looking where Fred was staring.

"Do not," they said in unison.

"Whatever," she said, grinning, and she hopped onto her broom and sped off towards the broom shed.

"Well, maybe she's not too bad to look at," said George as they walked up to the castle.

"Yah, and she can fly well," said Fred.

"But I don't like her, do you?" George asked.

"No way man," Fred said as the approached the entrance and hurried into lunch.

Author's End Note: Yah, I know, lame ending. Actually, I think, lame story. I don't really like this story, not one of my shining moments. I will, though, keep writing, if I get five reviews. I changed it because I don't like this story. Also, all next week I'm going to be away, and I won't be able to post stories. I'll be really busy, but I will try to write some chapters while I'm away. Thanx
