Harry and Ginny: Until the End

Quidditch Tryouts

Harry's POV

Today we're having Quidditch tryouts.

I already know that I'm going to be seeker since you know I'm captain and I make the decisions.

When I got up this morning I skipped practice and when straight to the Quidditch field before anyone else got there. But I was out of luck . When I got there, Ron, Ginny, and Hermione were there.

"Hermione, don't tell me you're trying out?" I said almost frightened at the thought of Hermione on a broom racing around at full speed.

"Don't worry Harry. I'm only here to give Ron some pointers and wish everyone good luck. You couldn't honestly believe I was trying out could you?"

They all burst into a fit of laughter.

People had begun to arrive so I went into the locker room to change. When I came out everyone was rushing around, talking, and attempting to grab a broomstick.

"Can I have your attention please? Quiet down." No one was listening to me.

"SHUT IT" yelled Ginny. Everyone instantly fell silent.

"Thanks Gin. Okay so I'm going to run you guys through some drills. Can I have you guys separate into groups? Seekers over there, Keepers right here, Beaters, hmm how bout over here, and finally chasers right there. Alright, first let's have Chasers and Keepers go into the air. Everyone wait here and practice low on the ground." Harry said. He then mounted his broom and took off into the air along with the 6 chasers and 2 keepers trying out.

"Alright, I'm going to let the Quaffle go and just do as best as you can. Ready. Go!"

Ginny reached the Quaffle before anyone else. Of course she did. She was an excellent Chaser. I definitely had her on my team. She made a score when Cormac Mclaggen missed trying to stop the Quaffle. That's my girl. After the Keepers and Chasers got some practice. He had some practice with the Beaters. Harry played the seeker they were aiming for since no one else was trying out for seeker. Ginny played the Chaser. Once they were done practicing individually, he brought everyone up into the air and practiced as a team. Tryouts were over so he had to decide his team.

Ginny POV

I was walking down to the Gryffindor common room when I heard Harry's voice.

"I have to pin it up when no one's around Ron. It wouldn't be fair if I told you if you made it or not. You can find out when everyone else does. Sorry mate." Oh Harry always wanting to be far.

"Whatcha guys talking about?" Ginny said while trying to act as confused as possible since she already knew what they were talking about.

"Ron's trying to find out who's on the new Quidditch team and if he made it" Harry said will looking in his Advanced Potions Book.

"And you said?"

"I didn't tell him of course. I want it to be fair."

Harry finally pulled his eyes away from the book and looked Ginny straight in the eye when Dean walked up and kissed her on the cheek.

"Hey Gin, you did great at tryouts. Why don't you say we go up to my dormitory?" Dean whispered in her ear.

Ginny paused and looked at Harry. He quickly looked away and back at her book. Did she see disappoint in his eyes? I then looked at Hermione after and she was looking at harry with a look of sorrow. What was going on and why did I feel sorry for Harry?

"Don't call me that, only Harry can call me Gin." I said defensively

They all looked at Ginny except Harry. Though, he did look up from his book and just stared into the distance.

"And no, I have a lot of stuff to do." Ginny stalked off and through the portrait hole.

Did I seriously just say that in front of everybody? Oh my god why would I say that? Ginny had no idea where she was going, she just wanted to get away from that bloody embarrassing moment.

"Ginny, wait up!" Oh god, Dean. Just the person I need to see right now.

"What's up Dean?"

"Are you okay Gin, you've been acting weird."

"I told you not to call me that! How many times do I have to tell you. Anyway I have to get to Slughorn's party. I'm already late and now I'm going to be really late."

"You know I don't like your attitude lately, GINNY. Is that better? Don't even let your bloody boyfriend call you a nickname. Might as well date Harry. That's probably what you want anyway. I wouldn't be surprised if your hooking up with him just to get on the Quidditch team."

Ginny felt tears run down her cheeks and onto the floor. "You know I don't even know why we're dating. One moment you tell me I'm great at Quidditch, the next your telling me I'm so bad that I have to hook up with the captain. And for your information I am NOT hooking up with Harry. You really think I would resort to cheating on you? Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to get ready for Slughorn's party." Ginny stalked of back to the Gryffindor Common Room to get ready.

When Ginny got to the common room it was empty. Harry and Hermione must've already went down to Slughorn's. As she was walking up to her dorm a piece of paper caught her eye. It read:

Gryffindor Qudditch Team
Seeker: Harry Potter
Keeper: Ron Weasley
Chasers: Ginny Weasley, Katie Bell, and Demelza Robins
Beaters: Jimmy Peakes and Ritchie Coote

I made the team! That made my day somewhat happier. Now to go get ready for Slughorn's.
