Enjoy the chapter people :)

"Lizzy you seriously can't wear green!" Millie said, looking aghast at her friend's choice of outfit.

Lizzy glanced at her dark green t-shirt and then glared at Millie "Its Slytherin versus Hufflepuff; why not?"

Marlene rolled her eyes "Because we are in Gryffindor and we always support Hufflepuff over Slytherin."

"We support anyone over Slytherin" muttered Millie with her arms crossed.

Lizzy sighed loudly "Oh shut up guys!"

Charlotte ran out of the bathroom wearing a very bright yellow and black striped jumper "Is it a little too much?"

Millie took one look and snorted "You look like a walking bumblebee!"

Charlotte scowled at her "You can't comment Amelia; you have no sense of fashion"

Marlene tried desperately to come up with a compliment for the jumper "Well it's very...appropriate"

Millie laughed "Yeah she knows that Hufflepuff are hopeless so she is hoping to distract the Slytherin's with the neon jumper!"

Charlotte threw her hairbrush at her "Hufflepuffs are not useless!"

Millie swore as the hairbrush hit her arm "I said they were hopeless you idiot!"

Lizzy held her hands up "Come on people lets calm down a bit."

Charlotte noticed Lizzys outfit "You are kidding me?"

Lizzy crossed her arms "My boyfriends playing seeker remember?"

Marlene sighed "Let the bitch fight begin"

Millie grinned "Now that will distract the players!"

"Why do we have to go?" Edgar moaned under his breath to Marlene as the third year Gryffindor's all walked down to the pitch.

Fabien heard him and wheeled around "Pardon!?"

Millie and Gideon looked equally scandalised as Charlotte crossed her arms.

Gideon glanced at his cousin "To check out the bloody...competition"

Lizzy rolled her eyes "Very funny; oh wait hang on my sides aren't splitting"

Fabien ignored her "Ed, look mate as beaters we need to see how good a seeker Black is before we have to play him"

Lizzy looked outraged "Black?!"

Millie rolled her eyes "Reggie? Sugar plum? Whatever you want to call him."

Lily scowled at the floor "This is total dragon dung! If my boyfriend was a Gryffindor you`d be all happy, happy, and happy but just because..."

Fabien crossed his arms "Well he's not. He's an evil snake and there's a pool going in Herbolgy on how he bewitched you into dating him"

Lizzy turned on him "You had better be joking!"

Charlotte hit him on the arm "Of course he is!"

Fabien swore "That really hurt Lottie, you shouldn't be so violent."

"Well then you shouldn't be such a prat all the time then!" Charlotte grabbed Lizzys arm and walked off so they were well ahead of the others.

"Gum?" Edgar asked Lizzy as they climbed the stairs up into the stands.

Lizzy shook her head "I'm fine thanks"

Marlene looked hopefully at Edgar with slightly widened eyes.

Millie, charming sister as she was, took the packet off him "Cheers Eddy"

He glared at her as she handed round the gum "Did you have to do that?"

Gideon smiled "Course she did, she's only looking out for you."

Edgar crossed his arms "How did you figure that?"

Gideon started to chew his gum "Well no offence mate but you're a little soft..."

Edgar glared at him, then turned and started taking the stairs two at a time.

"Nice" muttered Marlene and Lizzy simultaneously.

Gideon went red "I didn't mean too..."

Marlene sighed "We know, now come on or the game will have started by the time we get there"

They carried on climbing in rather an awkward silence.

Fabien was the first out into the air and was greeted with a call of "Cous` get over here!"

Lizzy groaned quietly "Do we have to sit with James?"

Gideon scowled at her "Yes we do" he grabbed her arm to make sure.

It wasn't just James; it was the entire Gryffindor Quidditch team plus Sirius, Peter and Remus.

The third years sat down on the row behind the others; Lizzy pulling her jacket further over her t-shirt.

"Hello Sirius" Charlotte said with a smile.

"Padfoot" Sirius said sharply "From now on everyone has to call me Padfoot"

Lizzy raised her eyebrows at James and glanced at Remus who smiled humourlessly.

Peter took it upon himself to explain "Its Sirius`s new idea; we all get new nicknames. He is Padfoot, Remus is Moony, James is called Prongs and I am Wormtail"

Sirius grabbed an unsuspecting Remus by the arm while wrapping his arm around James "And together we are the Marauders!"

The entire stand was silent for a minute; then they all burst out laughing.

Even Marlene giggled a little behind her hand.

Lizzy had to lean on Remus`s chair for support she was laughing so much "How the hell did you come up with those nicknames?!"

Remus suddenly glared at Sirius "Sirius`s over active imagination"

Sirius suddenly spotted a bunch of sixth year girls sitting higher up and winked at them "That's not the only thing that's over active!"

"Well he's fast" James said grudgingly as he watched Regulus circle the pitch.

"The ability to stay on a broom does not a good seeker make" Sirius said bluntly.

Lizzy rolled her eyes "Oh you two should hear yourselves"

Fabien was discussing tactics with Gideon "We are going to have to target him whenever possible..."

Lizzy turned on them "You will not!"

Gideon smiled patronisingly at his cousin "Lizzy much as we love you; this is Quidditch"

Marlene patted her arm sympathetically "It`ll be o.k"

Charlotte groaned as Hufflepuff missed another shot "Come on!"

Edgar turned to his sister "Quidditch really isn't Hufflepuffs thing is it?"

Millie smirked "Is anything Hufflepuffs thing?"

Charlotte scowled at her "Shut up Millie"

Millie rolled her eyes and turned back to the pitch "Just cause...Wow"

Regulus had suddenly dived and plucked the snitch out of nowhere.

Lizzy stood up as he circled the pitch in victory "Whoop whoop!"

James`s mouth was wide open "What...How...Where did that come from?!"

Remus smiled "I think you may have found a worthy opponent"

Sirius turned on him "Shut up Moony...it was luck, nothing more!"

Lizzy glared at him "No it wasn't! Besides wait until he beats us before you start sulking"

Charlotte, Edgar and Marlene snorted as every Gryffindor in the stand turned to glare at Lizzy.

She shrunk a little in her seat "Well...It is Slytherin versus Hufflepuff after all?"

"Well done!" Lizzy said as she threw her arms around her boyfriend.

Regulus blushed scarlet as his teammates burst out laughing.

A burly boy patted Regulus on the head "Aww look at the little kids"

Regulus wrapped his arm around Lizzys waist protectively "Come on"

He pulled her away from his teammates and they started to walk down to the lake.

Lizzy smiled "So what was that about?"

Regulus`s eyes darkened "They were being rude"

Lizzy laughed lightly "Not really I mean we are a lot younger than..."

"No, they were being disgusting earlier" Regulus stopped himself as they reached the oak tree.

Lizzy patted his arm sympathetically "It will be fine, I mean you basically won the match for them today. That was an amazing catch"

Regulus smiled "Your brother didn't look too happy when I saw him"

Lizzy laughed "He's not used to serious completion and you took him by surprise"

Regulus laughed quietly "Shame it wasn't the proper match then"

Lizzy hit him playfully "Oy!"

Regulus stuck his tongue out at her "Worried Gryffindor? Your precious Quidditch cup is going to be ours this year!"

Lizzy poked him "You wouldn't dare"

He jumped on top of her; pinning her on the floor "Wouldn't I?"

Lizzy played along and grinned up at him "So that's how you wanna play?"

Regulus made sure her arms were secure "Now what's going to stop me beating Gryffindor?"

Lizzy smirked and reached up, catching him in a deep grown up kiss.

He responded with enthusiasm then suddenly moved his lips down to her neck.

Lizzy gasped involuntary; he`d never done that before!

"Hey!" a voice shouted from nearby "Get off her!"

Both turned pink like naughty children who have been caught.

Regulus released her at once and swore "Who was that?"

Lizzy hurriedly sat up and looked sheepishly up at Ted Tonks "Hi there"

He looked amused above all else "Aren't you two a little young to be making out?"

Regulus went a shade of scarlet "We weren't!"

Ted laughed heartily "You were; in fact you looked rather like a vampire"

Lizzy stood up quickly and grabbed Regulus`s hand "Well we weren't breaking any rules, Head boy"

Ted smirked "Not that you would have cared Lizzy"

Lizzy scowled at him "It's a stupid rule anyway; why shouldn't we be allowed to slide down the banisters?"

Ted raised his eyebrows "I'm sure Miss McMillan came up with a few reasons while in the Hospital Wing"

"Where have you been?" Fabien asked suspiciously as Lizzy sat down at the Gryffindor table.

Lizzy smiled sweetly "Cuba, I wanted a tan and some cigars."

Charlotte smiled at Lizzy "Lizzy have you finished that Herbolgy homework yet?"

Lizzy bit her lip "What Herbolgy homework was that?"

Marlene smirked "The two foot essay on the uses of Dragon dung"

Lizzy nodded and turned to Edgar "Ed you know how very much I value your friendship right?"

He rolled his eyes "Yes you can copy my essay; just don't copy it word for word again!"

Lizzy crossed her arms "That was Millie not me!"

Edgar narrowed his eyes "I thought it was you; yeah it must have been you were in detention with me for it"

Lizzy snorted "Coincidence. Oh hang on I remember, yeah I`d been passing notes and McGonagall caught me"

Gideon swallowed his carrots "You`ll actually catch James up at this rate"

Lizzy rolled her eyes "Sure I will, so did we have any other homework that I have forgotten about?"

Marlene shook her head with a mysterious smile "I don't think so; though I wonder what you were doing to make you forget such a prominent essay..."

The twins both looked panicked "We don't need to know that!"

Lizzy scowled "You are all so dirty minded. All we did was talk"

Charlotte giggled "Well that clearly isn't true!"

Lizzy shifted self consciously then glared at her "How so Sherlock?"

Charlotte leaned towards her and whispered in her ear "You really shouldn't let James see that love bite"

Lizzys right hand jumped to her neck "What?!"

Charlotte burst out laughing "What exactly were you two doing?"

Lizzy went scarlet and suddenly became very interested in her stew.
