The way up to the top was cruel. I could smell  the sweat from other students. They reeked of Fountain water, and covered in lots of mud. It was mostly full of First Years who played around in the Courtyard. They kept shoving into me, as I spotted Ron, Harry, and Hermione conversing to one another. Eyes lighting up, I wished for the First Years to pick up their speed. I could only pray and hope that they'd save me a spot, but I highly doubt it's possible due to the amount of students that keep appearing.

After what felt like an eternity, I finally reached the top, the blue skies coming into view. Students were seen rushing around on the stands, but with the limited space, it felt like I was being pushed around. My eyes quickly darted around the crowd, hopefully finding my three friends. I saw Ron's bright gingered hair near the front, but Hermione's bushy brown hair as well. Harry's black hair was barely there but still manageable to see. Quickly making my way towards them, I sat next to 'Mione.

"Hey, guys," I beamed, with my friend stopping her convo with Ron. The three of them smiled back at me, "Hey, Y/N." "Care for some popcorn?" Ron offered, holding his hand. "Don't mind if I do." I nodded my head, as a thanks to him. Grabbing a hand full, my eyes made it's way to the scene in front of me, and a loud voice echoed through the speakers.

A few pats were heard on the intercom, before a voice I could recognize was heard on the intercom. "Uh, hello, is this thing working?" A few more pats were heard, as the crowd quietly shushed. Mcgonagall's voice was heard distinctly, before a small chuckle was heard. "Ah..hi, everyone," The voice breathlessly said. From this distance, you could see the man slightly adjust his posture and a small smile was on his face.

"I'm Cedric Diggory, prefect of uhh..Hupplepuff, as well as Captain. I'll be your guys' announcer today."

All of a sudden, shouts from Hupplepuff erupted. I can only assume it's his fangirls cheering how attractive he is.

I mean I wouldn't blame them. Cedric Diggory is one hell of a fine man..

"Please bare with me as I was forced by Mcgonagall to announce today..ow-" Mcgonagall lightly slapped his head, before glaring. "Um, sorry. I'm not good at this, so please bare with me. Welcome to Hogwarts' annual Quidditch Cup tournament, where every year all four houses compete for the Quidditch cup."

"Did he just repeat 'Quidditch Cup' twice?" Ron whispered.

"Leave him be, it's his first time." Harry countered.

"Ah, right.."

"Currently, Slytherin has held their title for the past 6 years. Contrary to uh, Draco Malfoy, who has been their captain for 4 years but seeker for his first two. If that makes sense..? Anyway, Round of applause for Malfoy!" The crowd roared and cheered as the Slytherin team flew out from out of nowhere, with Draco leading the entire group. I noticed them waving at everybody, as well as Mattheo and Lorenzo flying close to the stands to say 'hello' to their fangirls.

They were howling and yelling louder than any other House, even girl screams were heard. The group swirled up into the air, before flying down rapidly to match the height of the stands.

"Damn, I wish I had girls cheering for me," Ron said, disappointed. Hermione rolled her eyes, jokingly pushing him. "Oh, quit it, will you?" Harry laughed at their bickering, me following along.

All of a sudden, the duo approached my stand, and they were now flying on their broom in front of me. "Gonna cheer us on, yeah?" Lorenzo shouted amongst the loud crowd, with me rolling my eyes. "Yeah, yeah. Whatever, Berkshire," I sheepishly smiled. Mattheo who was next to him, reached out for something that was in his pocket, before throwing it at me. I unfolded what seemed like a jacket, but it was Mattheo's practice jersey. "What- How did you even fit this big of a thing in your pocket?"
