Mary started humming in the Slytherin Common Room. It had been a week since she got out of the Hospital Wing. She and Seamus were still dating and she was really happy about that. They loved each other very much. But now, she was worried about Carolyn. Would she ever win Colin's heart?

The two have gotten closer over the years. Now, they were so close, they almost cried knowing the fact that they couldn't share classes. Mary could hang out with her friends, but Carolyn still didn't have any. This made everyone really, especially Mary, really sad.

Mary kept on wondering on how she could get her sister and Colin together. That's when she realized that Carolyn and Colin both had a lot in common. They both loved to take pictures, they both liked classical music, they both liked mysterious books, all that stuff.

So, Mary rounded Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, and Seamus out in Diagon Alley with her. "Now, you all know that Carolyn likes Colin, right?" Mary asked everyone, who grinned and nodded. "Well, I have an idea on how to get them together. But I have to have some volunteers. Who's with me?"

"I for one am ready," Seamus said, placing his hand on Mary's stretched out arm, as though it was the ending of the plan in a sports game.

"I too," Harry said, placing his hand on Seamus'.

"And I," Ginny said, placing her hand on Harry's.

"You guys aren't the only ones," Ron said, also placing his hand on Ginny's.

"Ah, what the hell, this is going to be fun," Hermione finally said. She was the last to place her hand on the pile. The group flung their arms into the air and cheered. "Okay, huddle," Mary said. The group huddled up like a sports team again. "Okay, this is what we're going to do."

Carolyn sat out in front of the castle. The birds were singing. But she was the only one outside. Then, Mary came outside and walked to her sister. "Hey Carolyn," she said.

"Hey," her sister responded.

"What are you doing?"

"Nothing. Why?"

"Just wondering. So, talked to Colin yet?"

"No."
"Why not?"

"The same reason you never talked to Seamus. I'm too scared."

"Hey, you're not scared. You're just not used to the guy, that's all."

"So scared that I've never talked to him in my entire life!"

"Well..."

"I don't know about you, but I'm going to class."

"All right. See you later!"

Everyone in Potions class were picking their partners. Finally, Ginny picked Carolyn and Colin. "Okay, let's have our little potion ready, shall we?" Ginny remarked. The group started to work on their potion. Both Carolyn and Colin smelled something fishy.

They kept on working on their potion when Ginny slapped herself in the head. "Bat eyes!" she called out. "I totally forgot!"

"Where did you leave them?" Carolyn asked Ginny."

"They're in my pocket, which is in my backpack... which is in the dormitories." Carolyn and Colin groaned.

"Well, go get them," Colin ordered Ginny. "Carolyn and I will finish this potion up." Ginny nodded, walked up to the potions master, explained about her mistake, and raced out of the classroom. Carolyn looked to see her father having a smile spread out on his face.

He was even trying to hold back his laughter. Carolyn smiled and looked back at Colin. "What's next?" she asked.

"Uh... scale of a dragon," Colin said. The two reached out for the glass. That's when the hands touched. Colin pulled back his hand and apologized. The two just gazed into each other's eyes and went back to work. "So, what kind of music do you like?" Colin asked.

"Oh, that one's easy," Carolyn said. "Classic. I hate rock, especially when my sister's playing her music."

"Same here! I'm always telling my brother to turn down his music, but he never listens to me. I wish that my big brother and I were as close as you and your sister are."
"Well, we have a lot in common, that is, except when Mary's playing her rock music."

Ten minutes later, Ginny raced back into the classroom with the bat eyes in her hand. "Got them!" she called out to her partners.

"Finally!" Carolyn called back. She laughed when Colin started to sing Hallelujah. Ginny threw the bat eyes at Colin, who caught them without even slipping. The three partners started to get back to work. Phase one was over. Then was phase two.

The next day, a Quiditch started. Everyone was excited. Especially since Harry as announced as the Gryfindor team captain. Mary, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, and Seamus knew exactly what to do. Mary, Hermione, and Seamus were taking Carolyn and Colin to a certain spot outside of the stands.

The spot was standing just five feet from the Quiditch field. Even though it was possible for the Quiditch players to fly over there, it was "a perfect place to take photographs". Carolyn and Colin were carrying their cameras over to the spot. "Stay here," Hermione said. "We'll be in the stands if you need us."

The three left to the stands, leaving Carolyn and Colin alone. Fifteen minutes after the game started, it was time for Harry, Ron, and Ginny to do their part. Harry was chasing after the Quaffel, with Ron right behind him, trying to guard Harry from the Bludger. When they made a turn, they were heading right towards Carolyn and Colin.

They made a really sharp turn, but purposely hit Carolyn with the ends of their brooms. She fell back, but luckily, Colin shot out his arms and caught Carolyn. The two looked at each other. "Thanks," Carolyn said.

"Uh, no problem," Colin said uneasily. He lifted her up. That's when the Snitch flew swiftly by the two. They stared at each other, knowing what was going to happen next. They gasped when they saw Ginny and Malfoy racing towards them. They were arguing and cursing at each other, not paying any attention to Carolyn and Colin.

"Duck!" Colin called out as he placed both his hands on Carolyn's shoulders and forced her down. Ginny accidently pushed Malfoy (who thought it was on purpose) and he hit Colin so hard, that he fell off of the spot. Ginny caught the Snitch, but gasped when she saw Colin spread out on the field.

"Dammit, that wasn't part of the plan," she whispered to herself. Carolyn jumped off and kneeled right by Colin. She saw that a cut was on his check. Blood was dripping down from it. "Colin, are you all right?" Carolyn asked. "Do I need to get Madam Pomfrey?"
"No, I'm fine," Colin assured her.

"No, you're not fine. I'm taking you to the Hospital Wing." Colin reached out for Carolyn's hand.

"I'm fine." He leaned up and kissed her on the lips. When it stopped, they looked at each other. Carolyn leaned in and kissed him back. Only one thing went on through Mary's head when she saw the whole thing.

Well, it didn't work out how I thought it would, but the plan worked.
