"Okay. I love Pokemon now." Claire said.

"IM SO ADDICTED TO POKEMON!! ARE YOU SURE THIS ISN'T A DRUG?!?!!!! IF SO, I DONT CARE!!!" Skylar screamed.

"Yes, I'm sure it is not a drug." Becca assured. As they walked to their classes, it was Pokemon all the way. (POKEMON! POKEMON! POKEMON ALL THE WAY! OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO PLAY IN A PIKACHU DRIVEN SLEIGH! HEY! POKEMON! POKEMON! POKEMON ALL THE WAY! OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO PLAY IN A PIKACHU DRIVEN SLEIGH! Rollin' with Pokeballs, catchin' 'em all! What fun it is to ride and sing, a fighting song tonight! Oh! Pokemon! Pokemon! Pokemon all the way! What fun it is to play in a Pikachu driven sleiiiiiiigh! Cha! Sorry) The group walked to their classes. The boys walked to Transfiguration with Professor McGonagall. The girls walked to Potions and were greeted with an aroma of different and strange smells.

"Oh, my! Didn't you girls hear? No Potions today! I need to clean up after the fifth years whom made a mess in the classroom on purpose." Professor Slughorn made a disapproving sound. "You're free to go, girls."

"Wait. So, a free period?" Claire asked hopefully. Slughorn nodded.

"Yes, I'm afraid so. But, you could help me clean up, if yo-" Before Slughorn could finish, the girls were running down the halls to the Ravenclaw common room.

"Our second class of the day is no more! Until tomorrow, that is." Skylar said.

"We only have half an hour or an hour before We learn how to ride a broom with Madam Hooch! (A/N:I know I'm late...) So let's get our Charms homework done just so we don't get into trouble!" Claire exclaimed.

"Just so we don't get into trouble!" Becca and Skylar said in unison, agreeing with Claire.

_Skip to lunch_

In the Great Hall, the girls are and talked. As Skylar shoved macaroni into her mouth, someone set down a note beside her. She snuck a glance at the piece of parchment set beside her. She swallowed her macaroni that filled her mouth and read the note.

'Skylar,

meet me by the beech tree after your flying lesson with Madam Hooch.

~<3 Matt'

Skylar's eyes widened. She looked over to where Matt sits with the rest of Magcon. She saw him looking at her and smiling and then he stopped smiling and looked at Nash whom was sitting beside him.

_Skip to the exiting flying lesson! WEEEEE! Ehem, to the lesson_

"Welcome to your first flying lesson. I am Madam Hooch. I know it is late, but we had to rearrange a couple things to make this happen." Madam Hooch stated as she strode through the gap between both of the Houses. She smiled at them. "Anyway, I want you to place your hand directly above your broom and say,'Up!' Got it? Good." The Quiditch Pitch echoed with shouts of spontaneous "Up!" 's. On the second try, Skylar got hers. On the first, Claire got hers. On the third, Becca got her broom. Madam Hooch approached the girls.

"You three remind me of a trio I used to teach. And your grips on those brooms are firm, but not too firm. Those are Quiditch grips. I expect you three to try out this year. Maybe next year." Madam Hooch winked at them and helped a Hufflepuff by the name of Lachlan Litus. Becca, Claire, and Skylar grinned at each other brightly. Skylar looked into the Quiditch stands to see Matt and the other guys from Magcon watching in the stands. Must've had Potions as their class. So they had a free period.

"Now, class. That was very-MS.FINNIGAN! How on Earth did you manage to set your broom on fire?!" Madam Hooch exclaimed. She then put out the fire by swishing her wand. "Class, I'll be right back to you. I need to take this broom to Mr.Hagrid so he can use it. Ms.Finnigan managed to burn the flight charm off it." Madam Hooch marched off. Skylar looked back to the stands to see the guys laughing. She smiled. She could hear Matt's laugh from here, and it was adorable.

"Whoa! What is that?! In the sky? It looks like a spell book! No, three spell books!" A girl in Hufflepuff exclaimed. Becca didn't know her name. Becca, Claire, and Skylar looked into the sky, along with the rest of the two Houses. Becca, Claire, and Skylar mounted their brooms, despite the Houses' shouts.

"I think you kick off the ground." Skylar said. Claire and Becca nodded. The three girls took off and flew into the air. The trio stretched their arms out to grab the books. Only Skylar and Claire were successful. The book Becca was aiming to grab, flew away and Becca chased after it. Twists and turns were made in an attempt to get to the book. Claire and Skylar were sitting in mid-air on their brooms, holding the books. They were staring at Becca. As were the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff houses. Becca felt the air blow on her face. She loved it and wished she could feel like this forever. She was almost to the book when she got an idea. She carefully stood up on the broom and stretched out to reach the book. She slammed her fingers onto the book and grasped the book with her fingers. She slid off her broom and fell to the ground. Before she hit the ground, a long stick braced her fall. She gripped on the broomstick handle with her right hand while the book rested in her fingers on her left hand. She flew back to the class while they were all cheering her (remind you of something?). Madam Hooch then approached without Shannon's broom.

"I haven't seen that kind of flying ever since Harry Potter, girls! And, Ms.Smith, I have never seen anyone pull off that move except for Harry Potter! You three are super talented! No need to try out for Quiditch now!" Madam Hooch praised. "Ms.Rosewood, you will take the spot of Chaser next year. Ms.Joyce, you will take the spot of one of the Beaters. I don't know when, though. Both Beaters might not decide to play Quiditch next year. And Ms.Smith, I want you to be Seeker. I know for a fact that the Seeker now isn't going to play Quiditch anymore. Mr.Chang had an injury that made him quit Quiditch. He said he can only play until the end of the last Quiditch game. Hope to see you girls at Quiditch practice! Not to practice yet, but to watch the team and learn." The girls squealed quietly to each other.

"Class dismissed!" Madam Hooch said. Skylar immediately met up with Matt at the beech tree.

"Hey." Matt said as he arrived. "You were a great flier out there." Skylar looked down a little and blushed.

"Thanks."

"Well, I was wondering if you wanted to watch me practice flying. But now, you can fly with me. Are you in?"

"Sure! Is love to! I'm gonna possibly be a Chaser! That's what Madam Hooch said."

"Great! See you tonight after dinner!" Matt said as he waved. Skylar waved back.

"See you!"
