Gained A Couple Battle Scars (Second Installment)

Chapter 3: Quidditch World Cup

Harry and I look at each other confused but we smile for saying the same thing.

“You two need to grab on now.” Mr. Weasley says urgently.

Harry and I get on the ground, I’m in between Harry and George and we grab on and suddenly we're lifted up into the air and spinning around extremely fast. My mind is spinning like mad.

“Alright, kids. Let go!” Mr. Weasley says.

“What?!?” Hermione exclaims.

Harry and I glance at each other and surprisingly, we're the first to let go, I find myself screaming along with Hermione as she let’s go as well. Soon everyone has let go, shouldn’t I be falling down? I feel like I should be, but I feel like I’m going in the opposite direction. Suddenly me and everyone else are falling down and I groan when I land. I also hear someone groan underneath me. My eyes shoot open, and I’ve landed on George. He looks at me and raises an eyebrow.

“Sorry, George.” I groan again and push myself up to a sitting position, my hair is in front of my face, it’s blue.

He sits up, “It's okay.” He reaches for my scar and then stops.

George glances next to me and I look to see a hand outstretched towards me. I look at Cedric and he smiles as I take his hand and helps me up. I go to turn to help George up but hes on his feet already and smooths out his clothes and picks up his bag and joins his twin.

“You alright there?” Cedric asks me.

“Yeah, thank you.” I say with a smile, shaking my head so it goes back to white blonde. I look forward and once again I see George turning around from previously facing me.

We walk up a hill and see hundreds of tents in a massive field. Theres tons of people walking around, buying souvenirs, waving red and black flags or green and white flags. It’s like a parade.

“Thisll be fun.” Cedric says, giving me a smile.

“I love quidditch.” I say.

Our group begins to walk down the hill and through the crowd. It’s almost hard to not get lost. I see Mr. Weasley stop at a small tent.

“I'll see you later.” Cedric says. “Have fun at the match?”

“You’re not sitting with us?” I ask.

“No, our seats are somewhere else. It was nice officially meeting you.” He flashed a smile and walks with his dad.

“See ya, Cedric!” Fred yells after him. Cedric turns around and waves.

Mr. Weasley opens up the tent. I begin to count heads. Theres eight of us. That tent will probably hold two people. Everyone begins to pile in and soon it’s just Harry and I outside the tent. We look at each other confused.

“Ladies first.” He says to me, cocking a smile.

I roll my eyes and smile and go into the tent. I’m amazed at what I see. The tent is huge, it’s basically a house. I see Fred and George sitting at the dining room table with their feet on the table. Ron is in the kitchen and Hermione and Ginny are putting their stuff on the bunks.

Harry joins me at my side and he has the same expression as me. I nudge him before walking over to Hermione and Ginny, theres a bunk bed and an extra bed in the room, I set my stuff on the extra bed and leave the room as Hermione and Ginny follow me.

“What’d Cedric say to you?” I hear Ginny say.

“I saw him help you up, hes so sweet.” Hermione says.
