Chapter 2
The day passed slowly with no sign of Ron. Harry and Hermione had to get passed the crowds of kissing couples.
'Excuse me' Said Hermione in an exasperated tone.
'O.k. Hermione now can you tell me who you like you are going to have to some time I promise I wont ask you for help with my homework for a week please…please'
'Manners will get you nowhere Potter'
'Then how will I find out?'
'That person will know at the ball it is in two weeks hold your horses'
They kept on walking up the corridor.
'Where's Ron I haven't seen him since this morning'
As if on cue Ron and Luna walked out of the room of requirement looking ruffled.
'Ron?' Harry said
'Hi Harry'
'Where have you been?' Hermione asked in a strict tone
'In heaven'
'O.k. we have to get down to dinner' Hermione told Ron
'DINNER?' both Ron and Luna yelled
'Yeah you haven't been to any lessons today we were starting to get worried mate' Harry chuckled
The group headed down to the great hall where the magical ceiling was charmed into an evening sky and there were love hearts flying around. All the food was the same, roast everything and mashed potatoes but when it came to dessert all the lollies and cakes were all in the shape of hearts and were pink.
After they all went back to their dorms and sat down in front of the fire feeling very full. Harry reached for his bag and began to take all of his cards out and one by one he began to read them. Slowly the common room began to empty and as Hermione finished her homework she went up to bed, but still Harry kept on reading. He found Hermione's card for him she had written a poem in it,
The best of friends,
Can change a frown,
Into a smile when you feel down,
The best of friends will understand,
Your little trials and lend a hand,
The best of friends,
Will always share,
Your secret dreams,
Because they care,
The best of friends is worth more than gold,
And give all the love a heart can hold.
Harry kept reading it over and over in his head until he fell asleep.
He woke up in the morning with a start he had just had a dream that someone had just kissed him. He still had Hermione's card in his hand then he remembered it was Saturday and then he remembered Quidditch. Harry was now Quidditch Captain for Gryffindor and it was his job to wake everyone up
'Crap' Harry jumped up and looked out the window the stands were beginning to fill.
Harry ran up towards the boy's dorms first he ran over to Ron and woke him up because he was still keeper on the team, then he ran over to the new beaters Chase and Peirce who were 4th years, he woke them up, they literally jumped out of bed and started changing into their uniforms. He moved on to one of the three chases Casper a 2nd year and like Peirce and Chase he jumped out of bed too. Then onto the girls
The got to the bottom of the girl's staircase and yelled at the top of his lungs
'TILLY, ELLA, we're late get dressed and get down here now'
Within five minuets the team were in the common room yawning and didn't have their clothes on properly.
'C'mon we need to get down there'
The team had their warm up by running down onto the field.
