Brrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnngggggg.

I sat up quickly alert.

"What the-" there was a bell ringing right in front of my face. I stared for a second before I hit it away. It suddenly stopped.

"Ah you'r awake." Lily said from my right. I turned and glared at her.

"And what was that?" I asked. She just shrugged.

"Dunno it floated in here a few minutes ago. Started ringing softly and got louder 'til you woke up. You're a really deep sleeper." I groaned.

"I like sleep, it's one of the rare comforts you get in the week." I said.

"Well it's Saturday. So you can do what you want. Although Quidditch tryouts are on today aren't they? I thought you'd want to watch that." she said.

"Well of course I want to. What time is it?" I replied.

"Oh only around nine thirty." I bolted up and grabbed some clothes. I quickly chucked them on and ran a brush painfully through my hair.

"Morning." I said as I ran out of the room quickly. I ran out of the common room and through the halls and down the staircases and came to stop at the Great Hall. I grabbed a piece of toast and then turned and ran out to the Pitch. I got there just as the tryouts were starting. I stopped and caught my breath.

The Captain, William McKinley was doing an introductory speech. Then he told us to break up into groups according to what position we were trying out for. I followed where he said for beaters to go. I was actually a better seeker but I preferred beating. I knew the team was looking for another beater. One of the beaters had been a seventh year and had now graduated. The other beater was Sirius. I was the only girl standing in the beater group. I was attracting odd looks.

"What the hell!" I heard and turned to see James glaring at me. I smiled sweetly at him. "You're not trying out for the team!" he stated. I rolled my eyes.

"Yes I am and I am going to use your broom to do it 'cause I was late and left mine in my room." I said he huffed.

"I won't let you use my broom. You're not going to be on the team." This finally got to me. I narrowed my eyes dangerously.

"James Potter. You are not my parent. I WILL try out for the team and you WILL give me your broom to borrow. Do you understand?" I said sternly. He nodded staring wide eyed at me. I grabbed his broom and turned to do the start laps.

I did the three laps quickly and over lapped most of the other guys. Then when I finished my lap I doved down and turned at the last second and slowed to a stop. It was my secret move. It was the move that made me a good seeker.

The captain stared at me in shock. Then he set loose the bludgers and put us in teams. I hit the bludgers fast and hard, actually sending two guys to the Hospital Wing with blood noses and a snapped wrist. I felt a bit guilty about it but knew Madam Pomfry would have them fixed up quickly enough.

When we hit the ground my arms were sore from me being out of shape and not having practiced over the summer. I walked over and handed James his broom. He was looking at me shocked (gee people are getting shocked a lot lately huh?)

"I didn't know you could fly that well. You never used to be that good and we didn't get to play this summer because you were always in your room pissed off about moving schools. When did you get so good? Beaters aren't that good of flyers." James said.

"At my old school I always got stuck as the seeker and so I had to be a good flyer but you're way better at flying, my freaky brother." I responded.

"Are you calling me little? Should I remind you who is older?" he said.

"Oh yes because you're older by so much. It three fricken minuets you Tosser." I said. he just shrugged.

Then the captain called us to hear who got on the team.

"OK, it was a hard decision to make. Had some really good players and some absolutely horrible players but the new chaser is…Clair Mayden and the new beater is… Jade Potter. Also if I could have them stay back for a chat with the team, that would be good."

As all the other students left we all gathered near the captain. 'Ok so we seem to have a strong team this year. I want us to all work really hard. James is the best bloody seeker around-" James looked really smug"- but he needs to work on his diving, maybe he should work with Jade. She seems very good at diving." James now looked put out. "And as James is prone to accidents and injuries, Jade, would you mind being the stand in seeker incase anything happens to James? He may be the best seeker but you seem to be the second best." I nodded, I didn't really want to be James' stand-in but I knew it was best for the team.

After the captain talked for a few minutes more we were all told to head back to the castle. I went to take James' broom to the broom shed since I was the only one to really use it. Sirius came with me to put his broom away. We walked in silence for the most part.

As we got to the broom shed I brushed past him to put the broom inside the shed. As I touched Sirius he seemed to stiffen. I felt an odd warn tingle go through me by being near him. I pushed it away and stepped away. Then we headed back to the castle.

As I got back to my dorm I flopped on my bed thinking. Sirius was very warm. He reminded me of a puppy. In fact he reminded me of the stray black dog that I see around on the summer at home. It's the cutest thing. It trots around and you can't help but think that it is smarter than it looks. No, I'm being stupid, comparing Sirius to a dog.
