Book 1 - The Philosopher's Stone (with Male Y/N)

Part 10

Summary: Y/N and his friends had their first flying lesson with the Slytherins. After getting caught by Professor McGonagall for flying, Harry and Y/N were surprised when they were brought to meet the Quidditch captain Oliver Wood who was told that the two first years would be filling in the position of the Gryffindor seeker and a chaser.

In the evening, Harry and Y/N were confronted by Ron who had been wearing a hole in the carpet of the Gryffindor Common room.

Ron immediately glomped on them right at the moment the duo entered the Common room.

"What happened, man! What did old McGonagall say? Don't tell me you're getting expelled?"

Harry laughed, which only served to infuriate the redhead more.

"Not funny, man! If they're expelling you then you're done for!" Ron barked, angry that Harry was laughing at him.

"Right, right. I'm sorry." Harry wiped some of his tears away.

"Well, we're now on the Gryffindor Quidditch team. I'm the Seeker and Y/N's the Chaser."

There was a deafening silence as Ron's jaw dropped to the ground. After a good minute or two, Ron picked his jaw off the ground and became quite excited.

"Seeker! And Chaser! But first years usually never make it on the team. You two must be the youngest players in a--"

"Century! According to Professor McGonagall." Harry cut him off.

Just then, the portrait door of the Common room swung open, revealing a somewhat downtrodden Hermione. She rushed in and engulfed Y/N in a bear hug.

"Y/N, what did Professor McGonagall say to you and Harry? You're not going to be expelled right? Please don't say that you're leaving Hogwarts! Please say something! You're going to give me a heart attack!"

"Oh Hermione." Y/N returned the hug and patted her back soothingly.

"It's going to be alright, Hermione. And don't worry about expulsion. That's not going to happen."

"Why? What's going on?" Hermione broke the hug and looked up at Y/N, who smiled gently.

"Harry and I have been told that we're going to become the Seeker and Chaser respectively for the Gryffindor Quidditch team."

Hermione froze, looking at Y/N's face then at her other friends for any sign of a trick. When Y/N didn't laugh, she hugged him even tighter than she did earlier as tears flowed from her eyes once more. But this time, not from sadness but joy.

"You could've told me sooner! Then I wouldn't have spent all my time worrying about you and Harry!" Hermione pounded her fists weakly on Y/N's shoulder as she smiled through her tears.

"Sorry, Hermione." Y/N ruffled her hair with a slightly sheepish grin. Hermione chuckled and smoothened out her bushy curls.

"So what do--"

Y/N was immediately cut off when two arms slung around Harry and his shoulder simultaneously. Looking up, Y/N saw the two redhead twins that welcomed him and Harry at the Gryffindor table during the Sorting ceremony.

"Well done, Harry, Y/N. Wood just told us."

"Fred and George are on the team too -- beaters!" Ron told Harry who looked bewildered while Y/N smiled at the twins.

"Our job is make sure that you two don't get bloodied up too badly!" Fred spoke in with an air that spoke of a daredevil.

"Can't make any promises of course--" George cut in teasingly.
