"Please?"

"No."

"Please?"

"No."

"Please?"

"I swear you two for the last time," I crossed my arms, giving Hermione and Ron my best death glare, "I am not going to Harry's Quidditch practice."

"Why not?" Hermione asked, "We don't have class right now."

"Yeah," Ron chimed in, "It's not like you have anything better to do."

... BITCH.

"Oh I beg to differ," I glared at Ron, trying to not give in, "I can name plenty of things I could be doing instead of watching some cocky athletes practice their stupid sport."

"Quidditch isn't stupid!" Ron exclaimed, shocked by my answer.

"If it is anything like the muggle sports at home, it is."

"But-"

"Name your reasons." Hermione cut Ron off, looking me dead in the eye.

I blinked, caught off guard by the sudden topic change, "Wait what?"

"Name your reasons as to why you can't join us," Hermione said, mimicking my stance and crossing her arms.

Damn, she's been hanging out with me too much.

"Well," my fingers began tapping away, "We have that charms homework-"

"I saw you finish it in class," Hermione interrupted, "Try again."

"Well, there's potions-"

"Adrian helped you yesterday with it."

"I need to get a head start on the study-"

"You hate studying with a burning passion and will only study if you know there is going to be an exam soon."

"I need to finish-"

"You have reread every one of your books at least five times. Now I love a good book, but even I know you must be somewhat bored of those now."

"... I have to feed my cat?"

Hermione raised a brow at me, "You spoil that cat senseless and you always stay on schedule for her feeding, which was what you were doing when we came looking for you."

... damn it!

"Ugh! Fine!" I dramatically groaned throwing my head back, "I'll come to watch Harry's stupid practice!"

"Yes!" Ron and Hermione cheered, giving each other high fives.

"Oh quit it," I grumbled, pushing them forward to lead the way to the quidditch fields, "It's not that impressive."

"You are very hard-headed," Ron said, a bright smile on his face, "I honestly thought it would take a lot more begging to get you to hang out with us."

"Oh please," I rolled my eyes, "I hang out with Hermione literally every day. Of course, she's gonna know a few of my weaknesses at this point."

"Which are?"

"Ronald McDonald that is un-need to know basis."

"Are you sure this is where they practice?"

"Yes I am sure," Hermione answered, leading the way through very high wooden stands, "We have already been to quite a few games and practices already."
