It was time for flying lessons, I had yet to hear from Hermione about Harry but

that isn't important. Madam Hooch stood in front of us we greeted her, and class begun, I stood next to Carter as they are my only close friend.

"Well, what are you waiting for? Everyone step up to the left side of their broomstick. Come on now, hurry up. Stick your right hand over the broom and say, Up!" Madam Hooch instructed. Everyone in the class said up both Harry's and mine went up first try I look at carter who is looking at it awe, they say up again and it lands in their hands,

"Ha, we both got it! Ron and Hermione seem to be struggling, but they'll get it soon enough" Carter says quietly to me. After a little while Madam Hooch continues.

"Now, once you've got hold of your brooms, I want you to mount it. And grips it tight, you don't want to be sliding off the end" with this we all mount the brooms "when I blow my whistle, I want each of you to kick off from the ground, hard. Keep your broom steady, hover for a moment, and then lean forward slightly and touch back down. On my whistle...3...2..." with this she blew her whistle as she did Neville started lifting of the ground, he look terrified. "Mr. Longbottom." There were mutters about what was happening and telling him to stop, Neville start soaring away, I can tell he doesn't mean to, I think he, like most of us, doesn't know what he's doing. Cater and I exchanged glances knowing that this won't end well. After Neville fell to the ground he is taken to the infirmary to get his arm fixed.

"Did you see his face? Maybe if that fat lump had of given this a squeeze, he'd have remembered to fall on his fat ass." Draco laughs holding Neville's Remembrall

"Shut up, Draco!" I tell him,

"Give it here, Malfoy!" Harry yells.

"No. I don't think I will Potters, I'll leave it somewhere for Longbottom to find." With that he hops on his broom and start flying around "How 'bout up on the roof?" he goes higher, without hesitation I jump on mine to chase him, Draco notices Harry still on the ground, "What's the matter, Potter? Bit beyond your reach?" Harry goes to fly but Hermione stops him, warning him what Madam Hooch said, this doesn't stop Harry.

I try chasing Draco and I keep at a speed that I could overtake if he wasn't turning so often.

"Give it here, Malfoy." Harry repeats himself

"Or I'll knock you off your broom!" I threatened him,

"Is that so?" Draco asks thinking I won't. Harry darts after him and Draco does a 360 turn and Harry flew right past. "Have it your way, then!" Draco threw the Remembrall and Harry chased it, I went after Draco, I knocked him into a wall and grabbed his broom, violently dragging him close to the ground, when I have him a metre away from the ground and pushed him off. I smirk as he hits the ground. There is applause for me and Harry, mainly Harry. I am smiling until I hear a cough, I wince and slowly turn to see Professor McGonagall there. I quickly jump off my broom.

"(Y/N) and Harry Potter? Follow me." Me and Harry follow, while Draco and his goons laugh at us. We follow the professor to a class room, maybe we have detention? We enter to see Professor Quirrell. Don't ask why I don't trust him I just get a bad vibe from the man. "Excuse me, excuse me, Professor Quirrell. Could I borrow both Wood and Flint for a moment?" Quirrell mutters a yes as both boys get up from their seats. "Harry, this is Oliver Wood. Gryffindor's Quidditch Captain. Wood, I have found you a seeker. And (Y/N) this is Marcus Flint. Slytherin's Quidditch Captain. Flint, (Y/N) would make a great beater." She dismissed all of us to head back to our classes from before.

When walking through the halls with Carter I heard Peeves (YES HE IS IN THE STORY) saying how I was the youngest quidditch player in a long time I smiled proud to have accomplishes something already.
