Two weeks passed rather quickly, there was a rather awkward atmosphere between Sirius and i since we shared that kiss, neither of us knew what to say to the other, so we didn't say anything about it.

i was sat in Herbology with Sam who was sitting next to me looking off into space, day dreaming about goodness knows what, James who was staring at the plant over Sam's shoulder that kept trying to tap me on the shoulder with its creepers and Sirius who i kept locking eye contact with, going pink and looking away and then back to each other, he just wore his cheeky grin, that is rather hard not to look at, it is so

Lucky for me, i didn't need to touch any plants, minus the one that kept trying to tap on me, i turned around when it tapped me and growled at it

'Honestly. i know you'd love to tap this' i motioned to my body 'But i don't swing for plants unless it's with a spade ready to chop off its bloody stray creepers' the plant became shy and moved away and started to creep up the wall instead. i breathed out a sigh and turned back to the table.

'calm down' Sirius said with a broad grin on his face, i stuck my tongue out at him

'No i don't think i will' i replied, smirking slightly, James rolled his eyes

'well then i might have to make you' Sirius retorted, winking after, i blushed profusely, Sam came out of her day dream and choked on air and James stiffened a laugh

'Stop flirting you two' Sam said jokily

'We aren't' i said defensively at the same time Sirius replied

'no' Sam laughed

'What is up with you two anyway?' She asked

'i recon they got close in the holidays' James said smiling, Sirius and i blushed and looked away from them

'Don't be stupid, as if' I said looking at anywhere but Sirius' face

'yeah, as if' Sirius scoffed, i bit my lip and looked at James, had he been asleep, or was he awake, he wore a smirk. It was hard to tell.

'But, maybe, just maybe something did' he persisted, i held my breath slightly

'Don't be rediculus' Sam said after a minute 'Have you seen how accident prone Freya is around Sirius?'

'Sam' i said slapping her arm

'What?' she asked, as if she didn't know what she had just done.

'Isn't she accident prone any other time?' Sirius asked, i was still bright red and scowling at Sam

'oh, well sometimes' Sam said in a squeaky voice, obviously having realised her mistake, i hate her right now, i threw my head onto the desk and groaned, I heard James and Sirius chuckle.

'Sorry' Sam whispered into my ear

'You will be' i replied in a what i hoped to be, scary voice.

the bell sounded and i jumped up from my seat, grabbed my stuff shoving it into my bag and almost ran to the great hall.

I was about to enter the great hall when someone grabbed my arm and dragged me towards the dungeons, i went limp until a second person grabbed me, i opened my eyes and looked around. Snape and Parkinson were dragging me down the stairs, i started to struggle, and scream. Parkinson turned around and smirked, a glint of evil shone from his eyes, making me wonder how i had never seen it before.

'muffliato' he said and i was immediatly silenced, i began to kick at them, over and over, they tried to get a grip on me but i shock, eventually i managed to kick Snape off me who stumbled down a few steps, i kneed Parkinson in the crotch, he bent double and let me go, i fell onto the steps and scurried up some

'Get her' i heard Parkinson say through a groan, i heard as they both ran after me, i got to the top of the dungeon steps, and flew off to the grounds, knowing i couldn't get to a dead end, i ran towards the quidditch pitch, i knew neither of them flew well, so it was to me the best place to go. i ran to the stands and up the stairs and onto the seating place, i could hear shouting behind me, i continued to run, looking behind me, but not in front,

'Bloody bitch, kicking me in the-' Parkinson was shouting

'What the hell do you want from me?' i yelled over my shoulder

'For you to pay, blood-traitor' He yelled back

'If anyone is a blood traitor, you are!' i called back. I heard him growl, and then i ran into something rather solid and fell onto my bum, i looked to see who or what i had run into when i saw Sirius, Remus and Peter all staring at me and the two chasing me.

'hello' i said getting up and trying to dodge around the watching trio, but Sirius grabbed me arm and pulled me behind him, i looked at Remus. He smiled at me and stood next to Sirius. Snape and Parkinson came to a stop

'Move, she's our problem not yours' Parkinson growled

'Why are you after her?' Sirius asked i peeped around from behind them, Peter was hiding behind them too, i saw as Snape looked up at the quidditch hoops, i looked too to see that Gryffindor were practicing, i looked back at Parkinson

'Well, you see she is a little bitch who thinks she can make a fool of me, and she needs to be taught a lesson' this must be because i turned him into a pig in our last transfiguration lesson

'if this is about turning you into a pig, i thought the look suited you rather well. I mean, you are a swine' i said then looked him up and down 'and you smell like one too'

'That's it, i've had it with your bloody immature comments' he said walking towards us, Sirius held me behind him

'Get lost, Parkinson'

'as if i'll listen to you, blood traitor. I mean, your a nothing to any of us anymore, you were disowned and thrown out, you are worse than a bloody blood-traitor' He said Sirius scoffed

'If that is what dear old mother has been telling people, it's not true, i ran away. I couldn't bare to put up with your pureblood crap any longer' Sirius said through gritted teeth

'Just go away, Parkinson' Remus said, but he didn't listen, he got his wand out of his pocket and pointed it at Sirius

'What were you going to do to me in the dungeons?' i asked getting out of Sirius grip and standing next to him instead

'Just torture you a little' he said with a shrug, as if he did it every day

'Nice' i said sarcastically 'And you would torture me so?'

'So you couldn't play in your match tonight' Snape added

'Right cool' i said casually, getting my wand out so they couldn't see it

'You're sick!' Sirius said outraged

'no, we just know our pl-' but he didn't finish his sentence for i had pointed my wand at him and yelled

'Expelliarmus' His wand flew through the air and i caught it 'Come any closer and i will snap it' i warned him, Snape's hand twitched for his wand, i pointed my wand at him too

'Accio wand' i said, he tried to grab his wand as it too came towards me 'Run along children' i said shooing them off, they both growled and muttered words like

'Filthy blood traitor' and other much ruder ones. so i yelled over to them

'I'd rather be a blood-traitor, than a piece of scum like you' Then Sirius and Remus both put hands over my mouth, Sirius was chuckling

'Don't make them angrier' Remus warned me, i shrugged and pocketed the three wands i was holding. Sirius looked at me

'It is like you ask for trouble' he said

'Well he was a little-'

'yeah ok ok' Remus said as James flew over to us

'everything alright in the stands?' James asked

'Like hundreds of little butterflies' i replied, he smiled and flew back to the middle of the pitch, i watched the rest of the tryouts sitting between Sirius and Remus, Peter was still twitching and looking around shiftily. I don't like him much, and i'm not sure why.

I wasn't about to deny it, James was a very good captain. the team did as he wanted and played well.

'Kirk, try that again, but do it slightly more to the left and keep your broomstick under control' James shouted to one of the chasers. i hid a giggle, Sirius nudged me, i looked at him

'You're so immature' he said

'I know' i replied grinning, he laughed

'Hey, Penelope you go under kirk there, and then give it to me ok?' James called, 'and you two' he pointed to the beaters 'make sure no-one gets in our way'

i giggled again, as did Sirius. Remus rolled his eyes

'Laura, grab the ball!' James shouted

'Grab the balls!' Sirius shouted to the team

'That's What she said!' i yelled, everyone burst into hysterics, that is until one of the bludgers knocked the beaters off, he only fell about 10 feet and got back onto his broom, but i felt it was time i left so i got up and skipped back to the castle, sitting next to Lissa and Jake on the Ravenclaw table

'Where have you been?' Lissa asked

'Quiddich pitch' i replied

'So, are you nervous about later?' asked Lissa

'As in the match?' i asked, as i grabbed a sandwich and took a bite, Lissa nodded 'Not atall' i said after swallowing

'So, care to explain why Snape and Parkinson are giving you death glares?' Jake asked, i turned around and stared at the slytherin table, and it was true, Snape and Parkinson were giving me evils,

'Oh because i took their wands' i replied casually

'Tell us everything' Lissa said looking interested, so for the rest of lunch i told her everything

'You should tell Dumbledore' Jake said

'tell him what?' i asked him

'About them going to torture you' He replied as if i had said something stupid

'There is no proof, Jake' i replied

'Well you will tell if they make more trouble, right?' he asked

'Yes, Jake'

'Good'

'So, what is going on with you and Sirius' Lissa asked, with a smile

'Nothing' i said quickly

'But he defended you, and protected you' Jake said raising his eyebrows

'so what? we're just friendlier now, that's all' i replied trying to sound casual

'Something has happened hasn't it?' she questioned

'No' i said standing up and grabbing my bag

'It has, it has, oh what happened?' she asked standing up too, she followed me out, leaving Jake to finish his lunch

'I'm not sure, Lissa, i'm really not sure!' i said sadly

'Well something must have happened' she said as we walked down to potions

'He kissed me' i said quietly

'What?' Lissa shouted, stopping and staring at me, i stopped too

'On new years eve at midnight, but i don't know what it meant, was it because it's a tradition or what?' i asked her, biting my lip thoughtfully

'I'm not sure. just see how it goes with him' Lissa said as Jake caught up with us.

The lessons went slowly for the rest of the day as the match grew closer. I was getting bored of waiting for it, i couldn't wait to get up into the skies and be free once more

the bell sounded through the school, i packed up my things and walked down to the pitch, Lissa ran up behind me and smiled

'I'm less nervous than the last match' She said

'Good, you shouldn't be nervous at all, you're a great player' i reassured her

'Thanks, Freya' she said as we walked into the changing rooms, we got changed and were met with the other team members

'Right guys, i know how you all hate long speeches, like last year with Winston, but all i want to say is, go out there and score as much as possible' i said pointing at the chasers 'Protect the others' i said pointing at the beaters' and keep out the quaffles' i said to the keeper, they all nodded.

The beaters Edgar Harper and Jared Morton were hitting a ball to eachother only using their bats, Lissa and Dylan the Keeper were sitting on a bench as the two other chasers were discussing after the match.

'so how about if we win we throw a massive party in the common room?' asked Marcus, one of the chasers

'Yeah, a huge one' agreed Howard the other Chaser

'Guys, lets focus on winning this match before we plan the after party, but i'm loving the enthusiasm that we will win'

'Of course we will' Lissa said, we all cheered

'Well, with the best keeper and chasers and ok Beaters' i said winking at the beaters

'Hey!' they said simultaneously, i looked at the clock, there was about thirty seconds left

'You're not to bad either' Said Dylan, i hit his arm

'we're not as innocent and layed back as we seem, so lets get out there and show that team!' i shouted, the others cheered as we stood up and waited to go onto the pitch

'And here come the Slytherin team, You had better win Slytherin, Goot, Hall, Wainsley, Rosier, Morpeth, Murphy and Captain Flint' Boomed Parkinson's voice, there was a slight cheer, and a lot of boo's, then out team was called

'And the Ravenbore's-ow' Professor mcgonagall had hit him again 'Morton, Harper, Laurent, Newton, Branchet, Morris and captain Griffin' he said my name through gritted teeth as a roar from the crowd greeted us

'Welcome fellow students, to the first match of the this new year, Slytherin Verses Ravenclaw'

'Ravenclaw verses Slytherin' i said under my breath.

'Captain's shake hand's' came madam Hooch's voice, i walked up in front of her and glared at Flint, he glared back. and he refused to shake my hand. i glared at him and grabbed his hand defiantly, squeezing it more than shaking it, he barred his teeth at me and growled.

'Well, i want this game to be fair, no fowls, no blood shed' A flash of greed and want of aggression went through Flint's eyes,

'Mount your broom's and on the count of three the game will begin' she walked over to the case that held the balls, the crowd held their breaths sitting at the edge of their seats for the match to begin

'One, Two, Three'

we all rose into the air. I shot far above the rest, sitting on my broom, the slytherin seeker five feet below me

'And the quaffle is taken immediatly by Newton, get it off her! Come on Slytherin, bea-ow'

'Parkinson, i am warning you, no more biased comments' Professor Mcgonagall said sincerely

'ok, ok professor' he said in a huff

'Dodges past Wainsley, passes to Morris, who passes back to Newton, she scores, ten points to Ravenclaw' he said faking enthusiasm

i spotted the snitch near one of the slytherin stands so flew towards the hufflepuff one on the opposite side of the pitch, the slytherin seeker following,

'And it's Ravenclaw in possession yet again, Marcus Laurent with the Quaffle, heading straight for the Slytherin goal posts, unfortunately he is flying well, Yes! Quaffle intercepted by Boris hall who is skillfully flying up the pitch, no! grabbed by Lissa Newton of Ravenclaw, whoa nice flip there! Newton aims and yes, she scores again Twenty-zero to Ravenclaw, come on Slytherin, don't disappoint!'

I punched the air as i flew around the middle of the field, The crowd going wild, i dived, to make a show, and dodged as both bludgers were sent my way meaning that Howard was able to sneak in a goal while the bludgers were flying at me, Thirty- Zero,

i smirked at Goot, who seethed at me.

'Ouch' i said as he swung his bat at my head, but it only caught me on my shoulder almost throwing me off my broom with the sheer force he used, It was the same shoulder Parkinson had hit with the spell, that hasn't healed i might add, what ever curse he used, it was a dark one, my shoulder began to tingle and i knew i'd have a bruise, the whistle sounded and the crowed booed.

'Lance Goot Hits Ravenclaw seeker, which i'm sure was an accident' Parkinson said happily, the crowed booed again,

'Fowl, Fowl' i could hear Jake, James and Sirius shouting above the noise that was going on around me,

'Leave her alone' Sirius called

'Just because she's better than you' called James

'Pick on someone your own size' called Jake, i smiled at them

'Fowl!, never have i- you do not attack the seeker, and especially not with you're bat - penalty!' Madam hooch said flying up to our level, she turned to me but i waved he off saying that i'd be fine

Marcus took the quaffle from madam hooch's grip and flew to the goal, The whistle sounded and he threw it skillfully through the keepers legs, at such a fast pace it was hard to see it, i screamed and punched the air again but hissed in pain as i raised my now rather painful one, Forty- zero to Ravenclaw.

'Oh, we're ravenclaw, yeah Ravenclaw. now watch as we take to the floor. although we may seem oh so quite. i really would not buy it. for most of that is just an act. Because we are full of tact. and you may all think that we're mild. but look out now as we go WILD' i yelled out, The ravenclaws cheered

'Newton in possession, no intercepted by Hall, passes to-'

I lost track of the rest as i spotted the snitch, i dived and closed on it, the slytherin seeker behind me, as i got closer to the snitch it shot high up into the air i followed

'Howard Branchet of Ravenclaw has the quaffle, Come on morpeth, Save some damn goals! oh would you look at that he scored Fifty-zero to Ravenclaw, come on Slythe- Griffin has seen the snitch, stop her!'

'That's enough, Parkinson'

'Sorry professor' He said, everyone was silently watching me

'Newton scores, sixty-zero'

i dodged a bludger, skillfully twisting away as i continued to get closer to the snitch, i lent forward and got closer to it, I turned upside down, the snitch was inches from my hand, i looked at it and lent forward again, as much as possible. Then I grabbed the tiny golden object, my hand closing around it, the slytherin seeker feet below me

'yes!' i shouted, and then i began to cheer

'And oh would you look at that, the little bi-'

'Parkinson! that is it! you are fired from commentating' Professor Mcgonagall shouted angrily at him,

'Yeah, what ever, Griffin caught the snitch, Ravenbore win two-hundred and ten - zero' he said throwing the microphone on the ground. the crowd began to cheer

And then quite suddenly over the crowd's cheers, there was an ear splitting-blood curdling scream and an intake of breath as everyone went silent, it was then i realised i was the one screaming, and i was the one falling about a hundred meters, and i was the one about to die, my mind began to clear as everything began to blur into nothing.
