Ch.6-
Harry hopped on his Firebolt and zoomed out onto the pitch with Malfoy on his.
Then Malfoy took a sudden turn into one oft eh stands and kneeled with his brrom under him.
"Malfoy, what are you doing?"
"They didn't have Firebolts back then, we can't be seen with these, they'll think were mental, or cheats."
"Um…ok, well just have to fix it; I can't go buy a broom right now or anything.
Just then Hermione flew up next to them; she too seemed to be going fast but was on a Comet 230.
"Mione, I thought you had a Nimbus, where'd you get that one?"
"Oh, honestly Draco, for being he second top of our class, you don't use your head a lot."
Ginny zoomed past them as well on her Comet 220 and stopped with them after she was done showing off.
"Are you daft, put those Firebolts away, it'll look like were cheating! There aren't Firebolts on the market yet.
"Yeah, Gin we know, but Hermione has failed to mention how she got her to switch, and you."
"Concealment Charm Harry, you two best hurry, or you'll be late."
"Oh, right, ok Harry lets hurry."
After they fixed their, er… problem, they zoomed out onto the pitch with the other 30 teens waiting anxiously to try out.
"Alright, I'm Zach Marstellar, seventh year Quidditch Captain and Prefect."
He flashed a toothy grin and continued.
"If you are trying for Keeper, please go over by the posts. Beaters please collect a bat and bludgers, and seekers and chasers follow James Potter over there."
Zach Marstellar was very tall, he was an obvious chaser. His built was medium and he had light blonde curly hair and deep brown eyes.
Most of the girl population at Hogwarts would find him attractive, but he was very bigheaded, so somehow he was usually over looked.
Draco stood in between his group of friends and smiled.
"Alright, so Gin your trying for Chaser, Harry, Seeker, Mione, Keeper, and I'll try for Beater, good luck."
Harry headed over to the direction Zach pointed with Ginny.
People had already started and James was the instructor and was taking notes and telling them what he would like to see.
"Are you nervous Gin?"
Before she could answer a small girl was thrown the Quaffle from two feet away and dropped it.
"Not really…"
James raised his eyebrows at the girl who dropped it and she burst into tears before flying off the pitch and into the stands.
"Alrighty then, umm… next, Williamson, Ginny."
James read off Ginny's name from his clipboard and immediately smiled, I wonder how good this girl really is, Draco says she fantastic.
Ginny gracefully flew to a floating 'X' across form James where she should be.
James threw the Quaffle lightly at her, like he had the girl before, and just hoped she wouldn't drop it.
Ginny caught it with one hand and furrowed her brow at James.
"Um, I don't mean to be rude, but I promise I won't drop it if you throw it a bit harder."
James smirked, Finally, a girl that isn't afraid of the red ball.
She chucked it back at James and hovered at her spot next to the X, waiting.
He watched her, she seemed completely relaxed, not a single hint of nervousness was showing.
He told her to weave between the cones and catch the Quaffle in between each and throw it back to him before she entered another space between a cone.
Magically, little orange cones floated next to her, and she started.
Her broom zipped by and James threw her the ball again and again, she was doing great, and was bored, so she showed off a bit.
She went up high enough so when James threw the ball, it was by her feet.
He was un-expecting, so as he threw it, she caught it with her feet and swiveled it to shoot up by her arms and she took off towards the hoops.
When she was there she leapt off her broom and dunked the Quaffle into the goal and dropped with her broom magically flying under her again.
James was sitting there with his mouth wide open with confusion and amazement in his eyes.
Harry grinned madly at his girlfriend as she flew back to stand by him, her cheeks red, and her breathe slightly heavier.
"Show off."
Ginny grinned at him as he said it, and replied.
"Cant wait to see what your going to do Harry."
She winked at him and flew over to where the other people that had tried out already were sitting.
Across the pitch was Draco with the other beaters.
He was very well built, no where near a body builder, but he had a decent amount of muscle and he was very strong.
Everyone else there was HUGE!
I have got to be the smallest guy here.
Draco definitely wasn't small, he was actually tall, but the other guys and a few girls were very bulky and thick.
A pretty girl was carrying a bat and had an en-locking spell on the bludgers floating peacefully next to her.
There's no way she can be a beater.
The girl had short, choppy brown hair and light blue eyes. She was very nice to look at and all of the boys were stunned that she was helping with beater try outs.
"Hullo, I'm Alex Porter, I am the one and only Gryffindor beater at the moment, so I would like to see what all of you have got."
"You're a beater?"
One of the boy rudely spoke out and looked at her as if she was a disease.
"Yes, I am, and I'm sorry you don't like that I am petite and don't look like a dirty boy that is muddy and grungy."
She smiled and looked at Draco, "You're first."
He looked at her again and smiled before following her.
"You, by any chance don't happen to be the daughter of a famous Thomas Porter that played beater for the Chudley Cannons, do you?"
"I am surprised anyone asked, but yes I am."
Thomas Porter was definitely retired in Draco's actual life, but he figured that he must still b a legend when he was playing.
Maybe I could go see a match with him in it, wicked.
She immediately took the spell off of the bludgers and sent it to Draco who aimed and shot it at the guy who had insulted Alex.
It hit him square in the chest, almost knocking him off his broom.
Everyone laughed but he looked confused.
"I charmed the bludgers so that they wouldn't hurt anyone in practice, if your hit, you feel a dense weight on you, but you are otherwise unaffected."
Draco didn't think it was fun.
"Damn."
"Oh, believe me, last years try-outs were bloody as murder."
Draco smiled and she said he was done.
Next to Draco a little way, by the posts was Hermione, trying out for Keeper.
A tall boy with Blue hair was leading it and he was asking people to do as he said.
"Grayson, Hermione, your up."
Right when she got to the posts, she looked nervous.
Then without notice he threw the ball at her as hard as he could and before it reached her, he said, "DEFEND!"
Hermione assumed he meant it, so she did.
She waited until the ball was very close and the lunged her body deeply onto the front of her broom, causing it to do a forward flip and the tail end of her broom hit the Quaffle with a great strength smacking it far into the other side of the pitch, into one of the other goals.
"Wicked."
The blue haired boy had already seen enough, he told her to come to him.
Then he whispered.
"I think you've got it in the bag on this one Hermione, I'm Jason by the way, Jason Mayberry."
"Hi Jason, and thanks, I hope I get it, I will wait over there, see you."
He watched her fly away.
Finally Harry got his chance to go, having the name Potts, made him last on the trying out clipboard.
They set the snitch go and asked him to find it, and he was being timed.
He scanned the pitch and saw a tiny flint of gold next to one of the stand; he raced towards it and easily caught the ball.
That was too easy, maybe it got harder as the years go by.
He brought the snitch back to James and smiled.
"Alright, very good, thanks just go over there please, and get everyone in one of the stand if you can."
Harry got everyone to sit in the stands and he sat with the gang.
"Very good everyone, I would like to thank everyone for trying out and here is your Gryffindor team."
James stood and looked at his clip board before smiling and calling out names.
"Our Chasers are Stephanie Adrian, Myself, and congrats Ginny Williamson, you got it."
She stood up after giving Harry a squeeze on the hand and went to stand by James.
"Next, our beaters this year are the still standing Alex Porter, and the new beater, Draco Miller, congrats to you too."
Draco smiled widely and everyone who tried for beater groaned.
Harry whistled.
"Ok, then our new Seeker this year is none other than Harry Potts who had a record time set for Hogwarts ever as the fastest catch of the snitch for try-outs, which was 47 seconds."
Harry grinned too and went to stand by Ginny as everyone clapped and the girls oohed and ahhed.
'Oh! He is very attractive!'
'Maybe more than James Potter!'
Ginny scowled and Harry laughed at his girlfriends face.
"Ok, and finally, our new Keeper this year will be Hermione Grayson, very impressive."
Hermione showed a smirk that showed up Draco's before smiling widely and skipping to her boyfriend and hugging him.
"Great, welcome to the team, were having a party at Gryffindor house tonight for you all, see you later."
The gang was all relived that they got it and walked back to the Gryffindor common room, hand in hand.
Ron was anxiously awaiting them and opened butter beer as they stepped in.
He had a hanging sign that said, Congrats! Harry, Draco and Ginny!
Hermione immediately burst into tears and Draco gave him a mean look before consoling his girlfriend.
"I'm sorry you didn't make it Hermione, I didn't meant to rub it in your face."
He patted her back, and smiled gently.
She stood up from her place on Draco's lap and smacked Ron in the face before storming up to her dorm, but not before grabbing 3 or 4 butter beers with Draco hot on her heels.
Before she got to the top of the steps, she chucked an apple at Ron.
"She just needs to bloody get over it, I said I was sorry."
"Ron you are the word's greatest PRAT!"
"Ginny, shut up ok, I knew she wouldn't I don't see what the big deal is on congradulating you all for."
Harry immediately stood up and yelled in Ron's face.
"Ron! Shut up for a second! Hermione made it you stupid idiot!"
"Ron stood there his mouth open, before getting a hold of his composer again.
"Good joke Harry."
"Ron you really are an idiot."
Ginny was very angry and she too took 6 or 7 butter beers and a lot of candy to her room with Harry at her heels.
"Gin, you can't be serious, she is Gryffindor Keeper?"
"Yes Ron and she's good, maybe better than you."
With that Ron looked at the ground guilty and walked out of the empty Gryffindor common room to find Daphne.
