Chapter seven.
"Hey Charlie." Ellie said happily as she kissed her boyfriend on the cheek,
"Er, hi Ellie." He said, shifting nervously,
"What's up?" she asked, they were sitting on the couch of the Gryffindor common room, most people were downstairs in the Great Hall, eating dinner.
"Well, I have a problem to talk to you about."
"Okay, shoot."
"Are you cheating on me?" he accused her,
"What? Are you crazy?"
"Well, you have been spending a lot of time with James Potter, who is a notorious womanizer."
"Charlie, you talk as if we are adults."
"So you admit it?"
"What? I'm not admitting nor denying anything."
"I can't believe you cheated on me."
"I can't believe you think I would even dream of that." She said, horrified,
"Why would you do this to me? You're denying it."
"Yes, I am well aware of that. Haven't you heard? James and Lily are going out. Also, if you actually knew me, you would know that my mother cheated on my father, and for that I hate her. I wouldn't dream of cheating on anybody. You are delirious."
There was silence for a few minutes, and then Charlie spoke.
"Ellie, I'm sorry, can we just forget this?" he asked,
"No, you don't trust me."
"So you did cheat on me?"
"There is something wrong with your head Charlie." She said calmly, before walking out of the room, leaving Charlie completely befuddled.
"Hey Elles." Kat said, as she watched Ellie sit down at the Gryffindor table,
"Hi." Ellie sighed,
"What's wrong?" Emma asked,
"Nothing. Oh yeah, Charlie and I broke up, but he's a complete idiot."
"Why'd you break up?"
"He thinks I was cheating on him with James."
"That is so stupid, he should know you and James broke up in fourth year when he started to like Lily. It was the bloody talk of the school." Kat laughed,
"Yes well, I was known to be James' longest ever girlfriend, one month, and I still hold that record." Ellie said, "Where are James and Lily."
"They skipped dinner so James could practice quidditch." Emma said,
"Oh shit." Ellie said, "I gotta go."
"No, you gotta have some dinner." Emma said,
"But I don't have…"
"Eat something!" Kat ordered,
"Fine" Ellie grumbled, she grabbed a bread roll and took a bite out of it, "There, I ate something." She chucked the roll onto a plate and ran out of the hall.
"She didn't have any proper dinner. What the hell is up with those three?" Kat asked,
"Pfft. I don't know." Emma said,
"Now, all you have to do is watch out for the quaffle, one of the other chasers will throw it to you."
"James, I know how to play, I'm reserve chaser!" Lily whined,
"Okay, but I have to tell you who plays what. Kat and John Tucker are the other chasers, Ellie is the seeker, Sirius and Mike Leron are the beaters and Halle Rodgers is the keeper. Got it?"
"I think so." Lily said, she was really nervous about this game.
"Oh my god, I totally forgot about quidditch." Ellie said, as she rushed on to the field with her broom,
"Hi Ellie" Lily said, "James is just helping me with who plays which position and stuff."
"Yeah, and if you're not sure when you're up there, ask Ellie, because she's on the team." James said,
They spent the next hour and a half playing and trying to teach Lily what to do. She was an okay flyer, but she had only gotten the position of reserve chaser because James had a massive crush on her, and he thought she would like him if she gave her a position. In the end she had pretty much got the hang of it, but the best they could do now was hope for the best.
"Oh my god James…" Ellie said as she got off her broom,
"You like saying that a lot don't you?" James laughed,
"What?" Ellie asked,
"Oh my god." He said,
"Yeah, whatever. What about your captains pep talk thing?" Ellie asked,
"Oh shit." He said worriedly, "I forgot about that."
"I got an idea." Lily said, "You can either let Ellie or Sirius be captain today, or you can use that spell Ellie taught me."
"Which spell?" Ellie asked,
"You know the one where you put your wand to your mouth and say 'Oxyter' and then it lets you speak to another person without anyone else hearing?"
"Oh yeah, good idea Lils." Ellie said,
"Thank you!" she said,
"So all I have to do is say 'Oxyter'?"
"Yeah. Then you'll be able to speak in Lily's ear, and she can repeat it to the team. I only know about it cos' my Dad was an Auror and he told me about it.
"He worked with my dad didn't he?"
"Yep, but not anymore cos' they've got him locked up in the psych ward."
"Anyway, I don't know about you two, but I'm tired and I'm going to bed." Lily said,
"I'll join you." James answered,
"You will not!" Lily said,
"I meant; I'll go to bed as well… my bed." He laughed
"Oh, ok."
"Night." Ellie said, as she watched the pair walk back up to the castle, she grabbed her broom and kicked off the ground to go flying.
"Thanks James, you've surprised me." Lily said, when they had reached their common room,
"How?" he asked,
"You're actually making an effort for this." She said,
"I make an effort in a lot of things." He said,
"Like what?"
"Well, pranking, looking wonderful, making you fall in love with me. But I've already accomplished the last one."
"You wish." Lily laughed,
"I have, you are head over heels in love with me, and you just don't know it yet." He said,
"You are too confident James." She laughed,
"No, I am just very truthful." He said cockily,
"Yeah whatever."
"Have you noticed that you have stopped calling me Potter?" he asked,
"I have?" Lily said, worried that maybe he was right, and she was falling for him.
"Yep."
