Harry's P.O.V.

Mya, Ron and Blaise all had forgotten my birthday! I was use to not celebrating my birthday since I grew up with the Dursley's but I normally got a 'Happy Birthday' from Ron and Mya. How could my bloody sister forget my birthday? Then again she did just discover a whole new family and was in close proximity to Malfoy the whole time; that is an excuse. But what about Ron he didn't have a new family to worry about. I didn't let my disappointment show though; it was amazing that we got Mya into a quidditch store and on a broom. I was shocked this morning when not even Mrs. Weasley had remembered and too think that she had added me to their family clock but not remembering my birthday. Oh well, maybe they will remember later in the day if I drop a few hints in their direction. Were going back to the Zabini Manor to get some lunch and drop off all of Myas new quidditch things we might even be able to get play later. Mya jumped into the grate in the Leaky cauldron and Ron and Blaise soon followed. I stepped into the grate holding a hand full of floo powder and holding onto my glasses; something I learned from my first floo experience, never let go of your glasses while flooing. About 10 seconds after saying 'Zabini Manor' I stumbled out of the grate and an all mighty yelled of 'Happy Birthday' greeted me. I fell back in shock of the yelling and quickly wiped my glasses. I was greeted with the sight of the all the members of the Weasley family, Mya and Blaise and behind them was most of my year group and some other students from different years were here too. I was surprised to say the least; I had never had a birthday party before!

"Wow" I managed to bite out.

"Was it a surprise?" Mya asked.

"Wow" I was still recovering from the fact that someone actually cared enough to throw me a party. "I was a great surprise sis, thanks" I said to her as I swept her into a hug. I felt like shit now; having thought that my no one cared when they had actually just been keeping it a secret to surprise me.

"Sorry that no one said happy birthday or anything. We made sure that no one would say anything so that this would surprise you. This morning it was up to us to make sure that we could keep you out and about long enough for everyone to arrive; we had set everything up last night." Mya said while pulling out of my arms and nodding to everyone in hope that I might say something.

"Wow, thanks everyone. I had no idea that you had even remembered it was my birthday; I was just contemplating asking the twins for ideas so I could prank you all. Thanks." I said to the surprisingly large crowd. I was pulled into Mrs. Weasley's arms as soon as I had completed my sentence.

"I'm so sorry Harry. I saw your face this morning and I felt so guilty, your first birthday with us and we couldn't acknowledge it. Do you like the surprise? We have got all your friends here and some of the professors came too; Hagrid and Remus are somewhere around here. Harry Birthday Harry." Mrs. Weasley managed to get out with a smile that went from cheek to cheek. I looked around the room and saw Hagrid standing tall over all the others in the room. Ron, along with the rest of the Weasley's pulled me into quick hugs and said their congratulations before shoving me amongst the rest of the Hogwarts crowd.

Mya's P.O.V.

Harry definitely looked surprised to say the least. He actually fell back stumbled in surprise. I was pleased to say the least but I did have to question him just to make sure that he didn't have any clue; it was the perfectionist in me. I watched as the Weasley's all hugged him then shoved him forward into the crowd of students from Hogwarts; I noticed that Colin Creevey was rapidly snapping away to capture every moment on film for me as I had requested. I navigated my way through the crowd to where Hagrid and Remus were sitting to greet them.

After talking to most of the people that had come to the party I eventually set off to find Harry once again to tell him that he should open his presents. After walking around the whole room twice and not spotting him I looked into the hallway. I couldn't see anyone but I could hear someone I walked around the corner with my wand drawn; my family insisted that I stay on guard since they knew that I could be a target for death eaters. The sight that I was greeted with was not what I had expected; Harry had Ginny pinned against the wall in a rather compromising position. Okay, this was a surprise; I quietly turned around and made my way back through to where everyone else was. I would question my brother on this recent development in his love life later. For now I decided to just enjoy what was left of the party. I did notice that a rather scruffy Ginny entered the room followed several minutes later by Harry whose hair was even more unruly than normal. I caught his eye and gave him a smile; he seemed must have noticed my look because he returned it with a confused look. I mouthed the word later, he nodded in response. Soon it came time for Harry to open his presents; I was really hoping that he would like his present from me. I had decided to wait until the guests had left just incase he didn't like it. Harry was given some amazing presents; a broom servicing kit, a traditional Weasley jumper, some quidditch books and gear. And of course enough sweets to live off if he ever had to live with the Dursley's when Dudley was on his diet. When Harry reached his final present I began to get nervous, the final present was from me. The plain red paper and golden ribbon were soon pulled away to reveal a worn leather book; Harry opened the first page then looked me in the eye.

"Mya" His voice was chocked and I could see the emotions dancing their way through his eyes. "What? Where?" He managed to choke out. In his hands he was holding an album with a collection of photos of his parents during their times at Hogwarts along with some that my mother had from when they worked together in the order of the phoenix.

"I beat you didn't know that Hogwarts had a VERY large archive of photos from the photography club. These were most of the ones of your parents I could find. You should really thank Colin though because he developed most of them for me." I glanced over to Colin and he had blushed red from embarrassment. "Do you like it Harry?"

"Like it? I bloody love it! Thank you so much" Harry announced before he pulled me into a rib breaking hug. "Thanks sis" He whispered in my ear so only I could hear.

"It's okay Harry. I'm just glad that you like it, I know how much it means to you to have photos of your parents."

Harry was soon flicking through the album in awe at the images which ranged from his parents first to final year at Hogwarts and several from Grimmauld place during the first war against Voldemort. When I had been putting the photos into the album I was quite surprised at the similarities between what was happening there and what was currently happening now. One photo really struck me, Lily had been sitting in a chair reading Hogwarts a history while James and Sirius played Wizarding Chess; it was so similar to Harry, Ron and I. I quickly remembered that there was still one more surprise for Harry.

"Harry, there's still one more thing for your birthday. How about a game of quidditch?"

"Quidditch, bloody brilliant Mya!"

"Unfortunately we have to play at the Malfoys; do you still want to play?"

Harry thought for a moment before he replied. "I suppose so but why is he letting us play there?"

"I said he could be the opposing team's seeker and Blaise had a word with him. We'll have to go and get everybody brooms from the burrow."

"Who's playing?"

"Well, on team red as I dubbed it. Your seeker, Ron's keeper, Fred and George are beaters, then Ginny, Colin and Dennis as chasers. The on team green as Draco dubbed it. Draco as seeker, Percy as keeper, Bill and Charlie as beaters, then Blaise, Daphne and me as chasers. Sound fair to you?"

"Suppose it sounds good, are you sure that you're able to play a whole game of quidditch?"

"Of course I am; those two boys have really trained me up over the last few weeks. Do you not think that I can hack a whole game?"

"NO! No I think you will be fine. But who's going to be our referee?" Harry hurriedly said, he obviously remembered not to get ton my bad side when it came to my temper. He and Ron had been on the receiving end of one or two of my lectures over the years.

"My dear uncle volunteered" I said in the most innocent tone I could manage. Harry's face took on a slightly unreadable expression before he managed to get his question out.

"Isn't your uncle Snape?"

"Yup" I said with a grin before I walked off to fetch my broom. "By the way Harry you might want to go and fetch your broom, everyone else bought theirs."

Ron's P.O.V.

I knew that we were going to play quidditch but Mya never said that it was going to be at Malfoys place! I suppose the constellation will be being able to see Mya on a broom, she claimed that she had improved but I won't believe it till I see it.

Harry's P.O.V

I quickly flooed to the burrow to fetch my broom and by the time I had returned I noticed that most of the guests had left. I wonder if it was because they heard we were going to the Malfoy's or maybe they left when I was with Ginny. I was noticed that everyone who was planning on playing had all gone outside intending to fly over; the ones who were planning on watching were going to be apparated over by the wizards with their licenses. I quickly mounted my broom and pushed off from the ground next to Ginny intending to fly over with her.

Draco's P.O.V.

I cannot believe that I am hosting a quidditch game for Scar heads birthday. Father thought that it would be a good press opportunity for our family to not look (and I quote) so 'evil'. I personally thought it was disgusting that we were letting Potter and all the Weasley family on our grounds! The only good side of this was that I would get to play by my 'rules' since Professor Snape was going to be the ref and I also have Mya on my team; Scar head and the Weasels won't do anything that could hurt her. I do love quidditch! Looking out the window again I could see several people appearing on the pitch so I headed down to the pitch.

The Imaginary Commentators P.O.V.

"On the pitch today we have two teams; the red team verses the green team. On the magical score board we have the teams displayed.

The Score board read as follows.

RED TEAM

SEEKER - Harry Potter

KEEPER - Ron Weasley

BEATERS - Fred and George Weasley

CHASERS - Ginny Weasley, Colin and Dennis Creevey

GREEN TEAM

SEEKER - Draco Malfoy

KEEPER - Percy Weasley

BEATERS - Bill and Charlie Weasley

CHASERS - Blaise and Mya Zabini, Daphne Greengrass

REFEREE Severus Snape

It appears that the whole Weasley family is participating in this game which I do believe is a first with seven family members playing. The seekers today are very familiar to each other with both playing on their respective house teams; Potter having been on the Hogwarts Gryffindor team since his first year and Malfoy playing on the Slytherin team since his second year. The beaters on the Red team both played on the Gryffindor team from their second year until their sixth year when they departed the school due to a certain professor at the school; they were worthy opponents in their school days and many do wonder why they never carried on to play professionally. The three chasers on the Red team are in fact the three chasers of the current Gryffindor team from the past school year. The keeper on the Red team is also a member of the Gryffindor school team from this year and was the team member that was responsible for the Gryffindors winning their final match this past year.

On the Green team the keeper is Percy Weasley who never played on his school team during his time at Hogwarts but his brother assured me that he can play because and I quote, 'He was a fantastic quidditch played until that broom lodged its way up his' oh dear I will have to censor the rest of that statement from the twins. Bill and Charlie Weasley are the beaters on the green team today; they both participated in quidditch in their time at Hogwarts but they never played as beaters. They should have an advantage over their opposition beaters due to both of their careers being very physical (A/N: I'm pissing myself at the dirty implication that statement provides!). The chasers of the green team consist of another set of twins, the Zabini twins. Blaise Zabini has been a member of the Slytherin quidditch team for the past two years and I was previously informed that he and Draco Malfoy have trained his sister, Mya, so that she could also play. Up until now she was know as Hermione Granger and was not a very 'accurate' flyer. The final chaser for this team is Daphne Greengrass and this blond beauty is rumored to be a very talented quidditch player who is planning to continue to play quidditch professionally after her final year at Hogwarts which is beginning in September. And finally the referee for this match is Severus Snape who is in fact uncle to the Zabini twins and godfather to Draco Malfoy. This is guaranteed to ensure a challenging game today."

On the pitch the two teams had gathered into their respective teams to discuss pre game tactics amongst their team. After several minutes they broke apart and lined up facing their opposition the two seekers shook hands and all the teams mounted their brooms. Severus Snape released the bludgers and snitch before picking up the quaffle and standing below the hovering team members. Ordering the beaters, seekers and keepers to take their respectful places he then threw the quaffle up into the air to where all six chasers were hovering. While keeping an eye on the beginning of the game he mounted his own broom and pushed off from the ground.

"And the game is on! The quaffle is quickly caught by Mya Zabini who immediately sets off towards the goal with the other five chasers following her; she passes to Greengrass who dodges past the Creevey brothers on either side of her. Bill Weasley quickly beats a bludgers away which was headed towards her sent by Fred. I must say thank Merlin that Molly Weasley made those jumpers other wise I would have no idea which one was which! Ron Weasley is hovering in front of the right hoop but I don't think he's aware that Daphne normally goes for the right hoop when she is flying in this direction. She shoots and she scores. That's 10 points to the green team. Ginny Weasley is now in possession of the quaffle, passing to Dennis who skillfully dodges a bludgers aimed in his direction in retaliation Charlie aims a bludgers towards his own sister who was on Dennis's left. Dennis now forced to pass to his right where his brother Colin is waiting, Colin shoots forward to score he quickly fakes to his left and shoots the quaffle through the center hoop confusing Percy. 10 points to the red team, the score is now 10 all.

A/N: Okay well the likely hood of Draco letting the Weasley's and Harry play quidditch at his house and like zilch but I needed a quidditch pitch so oh well. But he knew that Snape would be the ref so he figured that he could play incredibly dirty (laughs at the dirty thought that last statement provided!). Sorry for changing P.O.V. so much but I just have aye. The quidditch teams I made up but all the characters are from the book but there isn't a description of Daphne so I am going to make that up myself. Draco will be nicer soon. The return to Hogwarts is not too far away. I will hopefully have another chapter up soon.For some reason I can't get the lines in here cos of a change on the website!

Right well a huge sorry for taking so long to update but I have been so busy with everything which I am actually going to justify to everyone so I won't feel so bad. Well my friend (Sunshine03) came here from America and is here till the 21st of December so I am spending time with her. I am working my butt off at the moment too because I am wanting to buy an ipod. I applied for a job and was told that I didn't get it partially due to the fact that my parents had well paying jobs! There teachers, they can't support a teenager with obsessions to music. I have also developed an obsession for the singer meatloaf which can be blamed on rockybudi, please check her story out too. My English exam went alright, won't know till January. I have been reading LOTS of fan fics and not actually working on my own one. I'm attempting to get my learners driving license and I am not doing so well. My mother decided to bring up education after I finish high school so now I am worrying over what I want to do – I have NO clue! BY THE WAY PLEASE CHECK OUT MY NEW FIC!!!

And I also have an amusing story to share with you all, I go out driving with my mate Craig and one day Lydia came with me. Craig is your typical male teenager so when he saw a mud road he decided to drive down it, unfortunately we got stuck. The back wheels were half a meter down in dirt! It then took 2 four wheel drives to get us out and now he has to pay for the road to be tidied up and the lawn that the 4WD's ruined to be fixed. This did teach him a lesion, don't go out driving when you should be at work (he blew work off that day) and this taught me and Lydia that he had some hot friends!
