Harry woke up to the shake of Angelina Johnson,the Gryffindor Quidditch Team captain.
"Oi! Wake up,dungbrain!"
Harry groggily sat up.
"Wha's-wha's goin' on?"
"You being late to practice is what's going on!"
Harry groped for his glasses,finally finding them on his bedside.
"What's the time?"
"Time enough!", she said angrily,reminding Harry of Aunt Petunia. Harry stretched and got out of the bed. Angelina threw him a towel.
"Hurry up! Shower and get dressed and I'll meet you at the pitch!"
She briskly walked out. Harry had a fast but warm shower. He came out,his hair sopping wet. It was only now that Harry realised that Umbridge lifted the rule up for Quidditch. Harry sighed:if only she did it properly. He dressed and walked downstairs. He noticed that the common room had been separated in two. There was the girls' section and the boys' section. Harry knew that he would fail this year if Umbridge wouldn't lift the rule up. The only thing he could do if she didn't, was study and study. He walked in the boys' section and pushed the portrait of the Fat Lady aside. His broomstick in hand,he trudged down to the pitch. When he arrived he was engulfed in hugs by Hermione.
"Oh,Harry! Umbridge has lifted the rule up for the Quidditch Pitch!"
"Hermione! God,I missed you!"
Angelina cleared her throat.
"Okay,women-!"
"And men!", Harry reminded her.
"Yeah,whatever! Time for practice! Hermione,help Katie practice broom-surfing, Harry,I'll let out the Snitch for you! Sloper,Peakes, practice handling the Bludgers!Keeper tryouts will be on Saturday!"
"Okay!", they chanted at her. She briefly nodded,got out the Snitch and threw it up. It soared through the rough,pleasant wind for a few seconds. Harry saw Katie throw the Quaffle up and Hermione pushed off the ground the same time as Harry. The Quaffle soared as fast as the Snitch. Hermione reached there first by doing a few loop-the-loops. She swung her hand back and threw the Quaffle with such aim and anticipation that it soared through the hoop without any mistakes. Sloper and Peakes were sending the Bludgers ferociously towards each other.
"HARRY! PAY ATTENTION!!", Angelina yelled.
Harry's head snapped back towards the Snitch but it had gone. It was only then Harry realised that he was hanging onto his broom with the Snitch dangling from his hand. Harry launched himself up to his broom. Harry was standing there looking at Hermione next to him that he didn't notice a Bludger flying towards him. Hermione took a Beaters' Bat and swung it at the Bludger. It flew back to the Beaters. Angelina rounded on Harry.
"What the hell do you think you're playing at?! We can't afford to have you under such bad focus!"
"I KNOW,ANGELINA!", Harry roared.
"If you want to focus so much on Hermione then maybe we should remove you from the team!"
"No,don't do that!"
"It's my fault.", a quiet voice came out of the shadows. "I was distracting him. Maybe I'm the one who should quit."
"No,Hermione,you're too good of a Chaser."
"No,it's none the matter now. I've already quit. Bye."
"No,Hermione,you're NOT!", Harry bellowed.
Hermione looked at her shoes which were covered in grass and mud. "You're not quitting. You're just too good to quit."
"I'm not good.", she said earnestly,her arms crossing while she looked up.
"I think this practice should end.", Angelina said. "Team,off to your classes!"
Harry dragged his feet to the Changing Room. Hermione pulled him towards the corner.
"Harry,I don't think it's a good idea for us to be on the sa-!"
But she was cut off as Harry kissed her. Her mouth tasted like strawberries. He felt her tongue slip between his lips and a sudden warm sensation filled his stomach. Harry slid his hands from her stomach to her waist. Hermione wrapped her hands around his neck. He heard people sniggering. He didn't care. The only thing that mattered to him was Hermione. Harry pulled her into a separate room and sucked her neck. She moaned loudly.
Harry could feel her hands slip down to his shoulder. She bent down and kissed his cheeks.
"I think that's enough for now,babe."
"Why?"
"Because we have classes.", she answered,giggling at Harry's glasses which were dangling from his left ear. Harry felt so hot now that his lens were covered in steam. Harry wiped them and strutted outside. He met Seamus Finnigan and Dean Thomas walking on the grounds. Seamus put up the middle finger. Harry,who felt the frustration and anger burst out of his chest, swore loudly at him.
"FUCK OFF,YOU MOTHERFUCKING BITCH!!", he yelled as he tried to strangle him but Dean pulled Harry away.
"Calm down,Harry.", he said,patting his shoulder.
"And why should I listen to you?!", Harry snarled.
"Because I believe you that You-Know-Who is back.",he said calmly.
"Oh. Okay,then. Sorry,Dean."
"S'alright,mate."
Harry walked out and headed to breakfast. Ron greeted him and talked loudly.
"Why'd you take so freaking long?!"
"Nothing,just saw Thomas and Finnigan."
"Alright,mate."
He continued to shovel tarts into his mouth. Harry saw Hermione look in his direction hopefully. She waved and smiled sadly at him. Harry returned it in the same way. Harry decided that it was no use being together,wasn't it? Harry took a note and passes it to Hermione by charming it to fly to her. She caught it and as soon as she read it,tears welled in her eyes. She gave a small sob and ran to the girls' bathroom. Harry chased her till he heard the girls' bathroom door slam shut.
"HERMIONE!!"
"Go away!", she yelled between sobbing.
"Hermione,I'm only doing this for your safety!"
"How?!"
"Because,I don't want you getting bullied and teases for me!"
Hermione immediately fell silent. Her voice shook.
"W-what? D-don't want m-me getting t-teased?"
"Yes,I love you."
"T-then you should s-start noticing other girls."
"Why?"
"Don't focus on me!",she said,suddenly angry and rough. "You never give me a chance to do anything! So go kiss Cho or Ginny! I saw you looking at her at the Ball last year!"
Harry felt sickened with himself.
"No,that wasn't the case! I-!"
"Don't lie!"
"That's not what happened!"
"Then what did happen?!"
Harry just stood there,at a loss for speech. Hermione spoke and her voice quivered.
"You know what? I think Umbridge's made the right choice."
Harry just looked at the door,his heart shattered.
