Hey everyone! This is the third chapter up and running :)

I am writing as fast as I can, and uploading twice a day, but can I get three more reviews before I upload again, because I already know how this story is going to go.

Chapter 3 – I Had Broken Her Dream

Silently I wake up and stretch my sore muscles, before quickly dressing in light blue joggers and white t-shirt, shoving a grey hooded jumper over my head. I pulled my hair into a bun and rubbed my sleepy eyes.

Without making the slightest noise I drag my trunk from under my bed and put it onto my just-made bed, putting my pyjamas into the trunk before clasping it shut. I, using my wand, make my owl: Cassandra's empty cage, tiny and the same for my broomstick; I wouldn't want people to know I had a broom. I slipped my wand into my pocket of my jumper and walk down the wooden stairs of the leaky cauldron bar. The room smelled rusty and old, though it smelt comforting now I had stayed here so long.

"Tom!" I exclaimed, looking at my boss, furiously scribbling on his notebook, he was probably trying to figure out costs.

"Hi Rose" He smiles, looking up from his work.

"Hi, where is Ellie?" I asked, looking at him questioningly, she hadn't been around to do her shift for the past couple of days.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, she stayed with her family, and is going to Platform 9 ¾, with them" I nod and start to walk away, ready to disparate to the station. "Oh, by the way... I am the caretaker now at Hogwarts!" He exclaimed, I excitedly run over to him, giving one of my best friends a hug. He smiled and patted my back.

"Ok, but I am going to be late, so by!" I exclaim, turning on the spot and feeling the way apparation knocks the air out of you. I gasped for breathe and looked around at the gleaming red train, tearful parents and miniscule first years. I quickly slipped through the crowds, and hopped onto the train.

"Rose! There you are! Come in here!" Came the frantically waving Ellie. I laughed and slid the compartment door open, dragging my trunk with me. I lifted the trunk onto the railings, and slipped Cassandra's cage out of my pocket and made it larger again, though not my broomstick.

Ellie smiled and we began to talk, as I sat down on my seat. Soon though, I see Lily, gesturing her in she smiles, though her face falls, when she sees who I was talking to, though we sat there, and as I started conversations, I could feel extreme tension. I look at my two friends, who were sitting angrily staring each other down.

Soon, though, Ellie seemed to get over her hatred of Lily and she started to talk to me, trying to include Lily who wouldn't participate.

As we changed in silence, I soon realised that maybe they would talk and get over their differences without me, so, I walked out, mumbling about doing some of my duties of being a SAP, special awarded pupil.

When we (finally) get to Hogwarts, we hop out, the air hitting us, making us cold, and walk to the carriages. As soon as I did, I zoned out, like I did around my mother and fathers rants, and soon, before I knew it, I was snug in my bed, my eyes slowly closing. Phew!

Smiling I wake up, laughing silently to myself at my snoring dorm-mates. I got dressed and pulled my robes on, shaking my head at the difference in robes that the girls had. My robes were baggy, the way they sold them, but the other girls, like Belle, had made there's more fitting, making their figures look good and stand out, mine on the other hand, made me look like a boy. Though I guess I don't care, I will be the one laughing, when I have a well paid job, and lots of money.

So, I pulled my hair into a bun, and ran to the library, ready to study, before breakfast. When I got there, I silently went in, I don't like being noticed by people, and I don't even know the librarian's name! So I sat down and made some notes on the book I knew would be talked about in defence against the dark arts, this morning.

When the bell went, I walked, putting my notes into my pocket to breakfast, my stomach rumbling. Nobody noticed me (thank god) as I sat down, next to Belle.

"Hi" she says, before carrying on with her conversation, with her friends, who like her are both pretty and had the boys eating out of their hand. I smile weakly, and just grab some baked beans, sausage, egg, bacon and fried potato, and eat it slowly, chewing and trying to memorise a spell I found.

"Come on" said Belle, to me and the girls, I get up and they take me to the bathroom, they started primping themselves, while I double check my robes are straight and had no creases, and my hair didn't have a strand out of place. Yes, I looked neat.

The rest of the day carried on like that, seeing Ellie at break, and then having classes with Lily, I was busy, and took notes in every class, making sure my notes were tidy and neat.

Me and Tom III have gotten closer and we have almost kissed a few times, how I don't know, but it is like he has a mixed personality, sometimes he is really, really into me, others he finds me annoying.

After four weeks, I was sat, waiting with Lily and her friends as they talked.

"Well, I wouldn't be surprised if Lily was made the Girl Team's Captain." Tom III announced. "I heard the bets are on you." I twitch up, and listen to the group talking.

"There are bets for who's going to be captain," Lily asked sounding shocked. "Anyway, I'm not going to lie, I'm going to try for captain but it's a pretty tricky category."

"Do you have to be on a house team to try out?"I asked curiously, maybe I could try to be on the girls' team.

"The leaflet didn't say anything about restrictions for trying out," said Anna, getting the leaflet out her bag and scanning quickly through the information. I inwardly grin, 'yes', I thought 'I will have a go at that'.

When it was the day of the try-outs I was so nervous, I thought of just staying in bed, but I decided against it. There were hundreds trying out surprisingly, I didn't know that many people were coming. There were many rounds to go through, the first was surprisingly easy, I thought it would be hard and we got split into two groups and then the first group got sent in just to see if they could fly the court well and then the second group did the same task. I was in the first, so I didn't see any of my friends, though I guess I was so nervous I wouldn't see them any way. This narrowed down the competition by more than a quarter of the original amount leaving the stadium, luckily I stayed, and I nervously took a deep breath and waited.

We got split again but this time into our chosen positions carefully I stood in the keepers, section. We took turns blocking the hoops, while the chasers threw the Quaffle through them. I blocked every single quaffle, I was so happy! The beaters took turned batting the bludgers back and fore on the other side of the court and the seekers chased glittering small balls bewitched to fly away from the seekers and tried to spot them from distances.

The final task, was where us keepers, blocked this machine, of which was magically powered, that sent Quaffle after Quaffle our way, like what they do with tennis ball, in the muggle world, and I managed to save them all!

At the end of the rounds, I was exhausted and so excited, hoping desperately I would get through. Madam Hooch stood in front of everyone and held her wand to her mouth, using it make her voice louder, "Well done all you. A gallant effort from everyone and I think I have a very hard decision to make. Down go back to castle and enjoy the rest of the weekend, the team list will be put up in your common room notice boards and in the Great Hall's notice board."

Smiling to myself, I trudged back, broom on shoulder and went straight to sleep, extremely tired.

Waking early as usual, I walked down to the common room, completely forgetting about the Quidditch, until I saw the notice board.

"Eeek" I muttered under my breath, tracing my finger, as I read. 'Keeper – Rose Weasley'. I squealed, before noticing at the bottom: 'Captain – Rose Weasley': I feinted.

The rest of the day, seemed a blur, people congratulating me, questions from my cousins, letters from my aunts and uncles and grandparents, (none from my parents) it was great, though there was a nagging sensation in the back of my mind, then, asleep in the middle of the night I realised; Lily's face, the way she was so desperate to be captain, oh no, what had I done?

I had broken her dream.
