Sorry for the slow update guys. Been busy with school and our exams just ended and now I escaped hell.... well other than that let's begin the story.

A Golden Catch

Cedric led Harry and Maya towards the Great Hall on the way they chatted about their lives from before Hogwarts to the present. Cedric looked shocked after hearing the story of Harry's abused childhood.

"I'm sorry of what they did to you." Cedric said sympathetically.

"It's okay it's in the past now, can't do anything but move on right?" Harry said.

"Right." Cedric said his lips forming a smile.

Cedric opened the doors to the Great Hall revealing all the students eating and chatting excitedly for today's current event.

"Harry I've heard your a seeker in your team." Cedric said while walking towards the tables.

"That's right, they said I was one in a century." Harry said arriving infront of the Gryffindor table where Neville and Draco were waiting patiently.

"Harry, Maya there you are where have you two been?" Neville asked.

"Just in the kitchen for an early breakfast." Maya explained.

"So you were on a date?" Draco smirked.

"No!!!" Both said in unison turning blood red.

"We were just eating breakfast together." Harry said still extremely red.

"Sounds like a date to me." Draco said eating a spoonful of mashed potatoes.

"Whatever." Harry said trying to end the subject.

Harry almost forgot Cedric was standing next to him.

"Oh guys this is Cedric Diggory. Hufflepuff." Harry said.

"Hello Neville, Draco." Cedric smiled at them.

"You know them?" Maya asked.

"Yeah, Neville's Grandma hosts a New Year's banquette every year and these two are always so 'dashing'." Cedric said the last word with a smirk.

"Well I better head back to my table before my house finishes every last bite. Goodluck today Harry." Cedric said as he gave Harry's shoulder a pat and heading back towards the Hufflepuff table.

Remember the special event today? Well today was the first quidditch match that Harry will enter.

He remembered a few nights ago when ge was so nervous about his first quidditch match.

Harry sat in the common room a dim candle light was his only source of light. He had to think for a moment.

"Only a few days until the big day." Harry thought nervously. His hands starting to sweat from anxiety.

The sound of footsteps gave almost made Harry fall off the seat due to shock.

"Harry?" Maya said with a yawn. "What are you doing down here at this time?" Maya asked wiping away the sleep in her eyes.

"Just.... thinking." Harry said slacking back into the seat.

"Of what?" Maya asked sitting next to him.

"The Quidditch match." Harry said simply removing his glasses to rub his tired eyes.

"Hey, it's just a game, it's just height plus trajection plus movement very predictable." Hermione said jokingly, attempting to lighten up the mood.

But Harry didn't laugh he only stared at the small flame from the candle, completely lost in thought.

"Harry? What's wrong?" Maya asked.
