Ch2 of A fire in the great hall

"What's his problem?" Harry asked.

"Oh, seriously Ron, get over it will you?" Hermione snapped totally ignoring Harry's question.

"'Morning Ron, Hermione," said Nicole as she sat herself in the nearest empty seat.

"'Morning," Ron called down in a huff. "Charlie sends his love," he added in a sing-song voice.

She blushed a little at his comment and then shot him an evil glare saying that if he continued he would surely be dead by tomorrow morning. He slouched down in his seat trying to hide behind Harry for protection. Harry stared in confusion down at Ron and gave a questioning look to Hermione who just sighed at Ron's stupidity.

"What just happened back there?" Harry asked in disbelief as they walked into the entrance hall and headed for the grounds.

"You don't even want to know," Ron sighed.

"Fine if you won't tell him than I will," Hermione began. "Look, Harry, we have to start off with the history of those two and their families and you may know more of her family than you think."

They made their way over to the lake and positioned themselves on the springy grass.

"First –off, her name is Nicole Marsh and she's in her seventh year and head girl. Second, her godfather was your father, Harry."

"But how…"

"We'll get there. Any way, her family, your family, and Ron's family were all very close. Ron, his brothers, sister, and Nicole, used to play with each other all the time. So that's how he knows her. I know her because she's head girl and we met in my second year in the library. She helped me out with one of my Arithmancy papers. That's as much as I know about her. Ron probably knows more but there's one more thing Harry…"

"What?"

"…She's Sirius' niece," she added quietly.

"…HOW? That's not possible. Wouldn't he have told me?"

"Well of course you know he probably wouldn't have told you because she looks so much like your mother, but maybe he didn't want you to know or maybe he wanted you to find out on your own." Ron piped up.

"…but, but that still doesn't explain what happened back there, the thing with Charlie, you know."

"Ah, that you'll have to ask her yourself. I don't really feel like talking about it right now."

That night on the Quidditch field:

Tryouts had started at six pm and were still going strong. The hopeful candidates stood in line waiting for their turn to show off their stuff. The Gryffindor house team had a new captain this year and it was none other than Harry Potter himself. The team needed several new players for the upcoming season; two beaters, three chasers, and two reserves.

They had started on the potential chasers and Harry noticed a couple familiar faces standing there. One of them was Ginny, but the other, he was surprised to see, was Nicole. They went in groups of three with Ron as the keeper. They had to get a least on goal before the end of three minutes. A/N :( Ok imagine that Ron got really good at keeping over the summer ok so now he doesn't suck at it) The first group to go consisted of Ginny, Nicole, and Dean. The three kicked off the ground at full force as Harry blew the whistle to signal the start. They flew in perfect synchronization passing the quaffle back and forth as they headed for the goal posts and Ron. He blocked their first shot but on their second attempt it flew past him and into the goal. They went for a third shot and bit barely made it in thanks to a last minute move by the keeper. Harry blew his whistle again three minutes later and the team of three had a total seven goals and had worked perfectly together.

After all the groups had gone, Harry had decided who he wanted on his team. The beaters were two burly fifth year boys by the names of Ronny Burke and Michael Donegal; the two reserves were a third year and a fourth year, Maria Salas and Eliza Hageman, both girls. The last to be named were the chasers, a fifth year, a sixth year, and a seventh year. Ginny, Dean, and Nicole had made the cut and were proud to have beaten out all the other competition. Ron came down from his post and congratulated all of his new teammates. He walked over to the group of chasers and stole Nicole and Ginny away.

"Congratulations, you two. Hey Nicole, I didn't know you were going to tryout. How come you didn't tell me?"

"Well, I wanted to keep it a secret because I was too embarrassed."

"She only told me because she knew I could keep a secret unlike some people I know," commented Ginny.

"Keh. I guess your dad being on England's team and your mum being on Ireland's has got nothing to do with it either."

"Hey I'm playing a totally different position than either of them. May dad was a keeper before he became an auror and my mum was a seeker before she took up the same profession."

Harry came over and congratulated them again and told them to back up for bed. As they made their way to the front steps, Harry had a gut feeling that he should ask Nicole about Charlie.

"Ummmm…Nicole can I ask you something?"

"Sure Harry. Watcha need?"

Ok end of the chapter so much suspense …ok not really but its coming along nicely anyway. Well here's what your in store for in the future: The first quidditch game of the season, a close encounter in a dark and narrow hallway between Harry and…, Christmas holidays at the Black house, and of course a visit form Bill and Charlie, and did Nicole just call him bear?
