Potter, Be Mine

Tryouts

I looked over at Harry as we both pulled away from our hand holding. Both of us turned around to find Ron and Hermione snogging. I laughed and was about to say something when my face was grabbed and gently turned around. I looked into Harry's perfect blue eyes. He looked longingly into my hazel ones.

Before I knew it my heart leaped when Harry leaned in and placed a small and gentle kiss against my lips. It felt like the most wonderful summer breeze. But all too soon, Harry's perfect gentle lips pulled away. Hermione and I were left staring at the backs of our best friends sprinting to get to the tryouts. 

My best friend turned to look at me. She laughedand then said, " So, who's snogging now?" Then she grabbed her book and headed for the bleachers. I laughed too, and followed her.

When we were finally at the bleachers I asked Hermione if she was OK. She responded with a nod. We started to talk about my kiss with Harry and finally  wecame to a conclusion.

" You guys have been crushing on each other forever!" exclaimed Hermione.

" I have only known him for four months." I pointed out. 

" Whatever, you have been liking each other since then! And now with the kiss?"

"Well, ya but..." I trailed off. 

" You should ask  him out." my best friend exclaimed excitedly. And quite loudly too. I looked around at the people staring. 

" Hermione! Be a bit quieter, will ya? And by the way, never going to happen!" 

" Well why not? You like him. He likes you. What's wrong with it?"

I opened my mouth to argue but really couldn't think of anything wrong with the plan. So I decided to. 

Suddenly a Quaffle came speeding toward Hermione. On instinct, I jabbed out my hand-knocking Hermione over- and caught it. Harry screamed at me to throw it so I did. It went right past Ron and into the tallest hoop.

Harry came up to me and said, " You should try out. Could be a great Chaser. Besides we could use one, we have six trying out but only two are good. I'll tell Oliver!" exclaimed Harry before I could get a word in. He zoomed away and I sat there dumbfounded.

" Told you to try out." said Hermione opening her book up. I rolled my eyes. 

Soon Proffesor McGonagall and Oliver wood were next to me dragging me down the field. I nervously put on the uniform and went outside. Only me and Ginny Weasley were girls trying out. I liked Ginny and we were actually pretty good friends. The only thing is there was an unspoken tension between us because we both like Harry.(A/N- In this fanfic Harry doesn't like Ginny back)

I mounted a boom and immediately pushed off. I did great when we learned how to fly in class. Harry is amazing and many people say that I am just as good as him. But I don't know. I do know, however,  that we share the passion. Both of us love the feeling of flying more that anything else. Except for, obviously, our friends.

I was to compete for one of the spots against Ginny,Angelina Bia,Sarah Gogoli,Mateo Sineter,Shawn Gorgle, and Jacob Roffle. Not to be rude, but Harry was right. Only Ginny and Angelina were good. They were actually really good. Which made sense, both have been on the team before. I guess I was doing OK. For the third spot it was probably me or Mateo. 

Sarah was in front of the hoop so I threw the ball at her so she could make it in(Cooper Farah was trying out for Keeper ans was against us) but instead she knocked it away, making it hit Cooper off his broom. He fell with a loud thud and a cry of agony. McGonagall was already there taking him to the hospital wing. 

After that Sarah quit. Meaning Ginny,Angelina,Mateo,Shawn, and Cooper were the only ones left. I felt bad but was glad that I now had a better shot. 

We started to play a scrimmage and it was actually kind of fun. Despite the nerve wreckingness of it all. Gryffindor started. 

Angelina automatically passed it to me and I whizzed through the air. I dodged a bludger and sped towards the hoops. I looked around ans saw Ginny so I threw it to her. The three of us got closer and closer to the hoops and were finally right in front of it. Ginny, being the clever person she is, looked like she was about to throw it in but suddenly turned and passed it to Angelina. Angelina caught it and dodged a bludger. As she was going to throw it in, another bludger zoomed by her. That's when we all realized she was practically being attacked. So she passed it over to me and I threw it into the hoop. My heart leaped when I realized I had scored.

All the Griffandors cheered and clapped for me as I went to sit on the benches meant for the team. it was time for the others to play in the scrimmage. As I sat down the Griffandors exploded into applause again. Harry had caught the Golden Snitch. 

He made his way over and sat down next to me. I drank some water and watched the other people trying out go up. This time Mateo,Shawn, and Jacob were playing as the Chasers. 

Almost immediately Shawn fell of his broom. Luckily, he wasn't hurt so he scrambled back on and flew again. Mateo threw the Quaffle to Jacob but it was intercepted by a Slytherin Chaser. Shawn started to fall off his broom again but this time he fell right onto the Slytherin. They both crashed. Fortunately, Shawn was used to it, so he got the Quaffle and started flying once again. Mateo recived the ball and passed it to Jacob after almost being knocked off by a bludger. Shawn started slipping again. When they were right in front of the hoop, Mateo chucked the ball in. Carol, who was not that a good a Keeper, accidentally hit the ball in for Mateo.

After that I was pretty confident. McGonagall said she and Oliver would have the results by next week Tuesday. There would be a notice in each common room telling them who got on each team's house.

The uneventful week passed by quickly and soon Tuesday was here. After class in Potions with Hufflepuff, my best friends and I had some time until the next class.

We walked into the common room when we all suddenly remembered the list of who got onto the Quidditch teams. They raced over to the wall where a parchment was pinned. It read said that Ginny,Angelina, and I were the Chasers. The Weasley twins got to be Beaters again. Ron was Keeper and Harry was the Seeker! Only problem was that Draco was also the Seeker for Slytherin. His goons Crabbe and Goyle are the Beaters. But other than that, this was great!

Hermione hugged us all. Then as Harry and Ron went on talking about something, Hermione nudged me and gave me a look that said 'now'. I knew what she was talking about. Even though I was really queasy and nervous, I knew I had to do this. 

I anxiously walked over to Ron and Harry. Ron seemed to know something was up, so he walked over to his girlfriend. Harry looked up at me and smiled. I loved that smile.

" Congratulations on being Seeker." I said trying to get the conversation rolling.

" Thanks! Nice going on being Chaser. I knew made a good choice when I when to get McGonagall and Oliver." Harry complimented.

" Thanks." I had to do this. Despite the butterflies in my stomach I said, " Harry, I like you. A lot. As in more than a friend." I blushed and looked up into his gorgeous green eyes.

He looked shocked. I knew he already knew though. Harry gave me a smile and said, " I know. You probably already know this, but I like you a lot too." He blushed and I smiled. 

Then he suddenly blurted out, " Want to go out?" I looked happily into his eyes.

Then replied simply, " Yes."
