"You're so gorgeous I can't say anything to your face"

-Gorgeous (Taylor Swift)

-Beep Beep-

My alarm rang loudly, as I struggled to reach it. Just as I slammed my alarm off, loud footsteps were heard outside my bedroom. As the door banged open, two strong arms lifted my sheets off.

"Wake up already, stop being so lazy!"

My annoying brother yelled into my ear, causing me to jump awake. I rubbed my eyes still half asleep as I stood up to stretch. That was when I realized what day it was. The day of the Quidditch World Cup, aka the best day of the year! I've been waiting for this day since it was announced that, Victor Krum, the legendary quidditch seeker, would be playing! I quickly threw on clothes and washed up before running downstairs for breakfast. I couldn't contain my excitement as I kept wiggling my legs while eating.

My mom slapped my lap to stop my legs moving. "Stop acting like a crazy girl, eat your food properly!"

But I was still smiling like a psycho. "Mom! We're seeing Vitor Krum today! How can I not be excited."

"Yeah Mom, how are you not excited?" Liam said with a mouth full of cereal.

My mom glared at my brother "Don't eat with your mouth open, it's disgusting!"

Typical Asian mom scolding, I thought as I finished my bowl of fruits. My dad finally came down, wearing...a quidditch uniform? I was beyond confused by my dad's outfit.

"Dad, what are you wearing?" I said in a confused tone, as I eyed him up and down.

"My old quidditch uniform! Didn't think I would still fit in this!" He said, smiling happily. "Liam, go change into your quidditch uniform, we have to wear it together!" Liam willingly went to put on his uniform. Our family loves quidditch, even my mom, she might not show it but she was the one who bought tickets to the Quidditch World Cup for all of us. Liam is the raven claw keeper, explains his fast reflexes. My dad was a chaser back in his school days. Even though I don't play quidditch, I still love watching the sport, and especially Victor Krum!

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. I went over to open it. Liam's friends Xavier and of course, Cedric stood before me.

"Hey, you guys made it!" I said with excitement in my voice.

Xavier placed his arm around my shoulder as we walked into my house. "Of course, we wouldn't miss the World Cup" Xavier is my brother's other best friend, the three of them were inseparable, but unlike Cedric's disciplinary and kind personality, he was a bit of a... troublemaker, typical playboy, and delinquent. Cedric followed behind us, I tried so hard not to turn back and look at him.

Just then, Liam came downstairs in his uniform. "You guys got here already?" he said with his signature smirk on his face. As he came over to give the two bro handshakes.

"Is everyone ready to go?" My mom asked us.

We all nodded as we followed her to the fireplace, so we could use floo powder to get to the World Cup stadium. I glanced at Cedric, he was wearing his Quidditch uniform, matching with everyone else. I never get tired of seeing him in those robes, seeing him in action as the Hufflepuff seeker was even better. He ran his hand through his brown hair and gave me a sweet smile. The things I would do to run my fingers through his locks- What was I even thinking? I regained my posture and returned a smile, thank god I snapped out of it before I could embarrass myself. Cedric came to stand next to me as we got ready to use the floo powder.

"Nice outfit, it suits you" Cedric complimented my choice of clothing. I was wearing a wine red dress with floral patterns all over it, and bows on my long black hair. I felt my cheeks heat up slightly reacting to his comment. "Oh, thanks" I stutter. I looked away from him to hide my burning cheeks.

As my dad dropped the floo powder, we were all transferred to the stadium in an instant.
