Chapter 16

                               Chapter 16

            A couple weeks after we got back to school dad seemed to act weird, he seemed sad, I had never seen him like that. I walked up to him after a few days and asked “What’s wrong Dad” he sighed and looked over at me. “Your mother and I went to get an ultrasound today, your little sister is breech, there’s a chance she might not turn herself around, she might die” my jaw dropped. “My little sister…could die?” he nodded. “Unfortunately, the chances of her dying are high” he said and I saw a tear form in his eye, he wiped it away with his sleeve.

            I hugged him “I’m sorry daddy” I said and he hugged me back “It isn’t your fault Lena, and I suppose we shouldn’t give up hope yet, she may be born breech but she may still live, we just have to hope” I nodded and kissed his cheek “keep a good attitude daddy, you never know what could happen” he nodded and I broke our hug “Have a good day daddy” I said and walked off, when I went past the bathroom that the chamber was in Seamus stepped out. “You’re spending a lot of time in that chamber” I said as Seamus straightened his tie. “Well it’s a place where I can think, besides, half the time I’m in there it’s with Alexa” I grinned “You guys are really getting serious huh” he gave me a look “Sis, we got serious over Christmas, this is just our usual now”

              I laughed “So are you going to propose to her eventually?” he nodded “But I promised Mom I would wait remember?” I nodded “So Seamus you ready for the house cup?” he nodded. “I’m ready to take home the trophy” he said and I laughed “You know it will be in Slytherins home too right? We all share the castle” he laughed. “Yeah, but it’ll be in our house” he said and we walked out into the courtyard and met up with Harry and the rest of the team.

             “Ok, so are you guys ready?” Harry asked and we all grinned and nodded. “Ready for anything they can throw at us” we said. He grinned and he and Ginny turned and led us down to the stadium. We went into the locker room and got ready as always, but the one thing that was different is that I got a hug from George from behind when I was changing. I laughed and said “George, I’m changing, wait ‘till I’m done” he grinned and backed up. “I just wanted to wish you luck Lena, love you” he said and kissed my cheek.

              I turned around and pulled him into a hug and kissed him happily. “Love you too George” I said and unwrapped my arms. He turned and jogged out of the locker room. The team went and sat on the bench in front of Harry, the same thing had been written on the chalkboard for the last many games, a simple idea. “Win” Seamus had drawn it up and said “It’s better to think about this then some stupid plays that may not even work” we had all agreed and so that word had been on the board for quite a while.

              I sat and talked to Alexa, and she told me about hearing Seamus speaking parstletongue a lot more then he used too. She said it was always when he was listening to his iPod, she thought he was singing the prophecy, even in parstletongue.

                 I kept telling her it would be ok, that Seamus was just a bit confused right now, and it would turn out fine. She sighed and nodded “I hope you’re right Lena” she said and then we were announced, we all got up and walked out onto the pitch, Slytherin was walking towards us from the other side of the pitch. We all mounted our brooms in the middle and waited until the whistle was blown and we took off. Slytherin got the quaffle and sped towards our post.

                   They made the first goal and when we got the ball I had it and I threw it to Georgi and she sped toward the post, out of nowhere a bludger sped by and hit the ball out of Georgi’s hands, Ginny caught it and threw it into the goal post, getting out first goal.    

               We sped back to our side as Slytherin came down the pitch, Seamus hit a bludger towards the chaser with the ball and the chaser tossed it to the guy on his right, but I was right there to grab the quaffle and speed towards the goal.

          I threw the quaffle and it went in, I smiled and sped back, Georgi and Ginny were already waiting for me. Slytherin sped back and all of a sudden Alexa and Georgi went out of my sight and two bludgers were speeding at me, I dodged them and they hit the Slytherins that were speeding toward the post, we converged on the Slytherin with the quaffle but he sped ahead and made a goal.

          This went on for awhile until it was tied seventy to seventy, we were all hoping Harry would get the Snitch. I was worried when we lost the ball repetadly during the end of the game, but then I heard everyone cheer and I saw Harry holding up the snitch in triumph. “Gryffindor wins!” the announcer yells.
