"AND THERE GOES JOHNSON WITH THE QUAFFLE, QUITE GOOD LOOKING SHE IS, BUT WHEN I ASK HER-" Lee Jordan comments, but is interrupted, once again, by McGonagall.

"JORDAN! PAY ATTENTION TO THE GAME, NOT HOW ATTRACTIVE THE PLAYERS ARE!" she yells.

The stadium erupted with giggles. I sighed. Why did Lee talk so much about the other girls, but never me? He even talked about Harry and Oliver, so I was the one that was never talked about! Oh, me and the twins. I wish he got the hints that I've been dropping. I like him, but he doesn't like me back.

"AND THERE GOES SPINNET WITH THE QUAFFLE! CAN SHE PUT IT IN? YES, SHE CAN! WE ARE NOW TIED WITH SLYTHERIN! AND THERE GOES POTTER! HE MUST HAVE SEEN THE SNITCH! AND HE'S DIVING! AND.... HE'S CAUGHT THE SNITCH! GRYFFINDOR HAS WON THE CUP!"

I swooped down and Angelina, Katie and I kissed his cheek and Oliver was shouting, "THAT'S MY BOY!" over and over. We were all cheering and shouting, Fred and George had Harry on their shoulders, and we all were jumping up and down like mad.

Lee went around and told us all that there was a party in the common room. 

I pulled him aside.

He looked at me and blushed. "What is it?" he asked softly. 

I burst into tears. He engulfed me in a huge hug and let me cry out my worries. Oh, his shirt was so soft, his arms were so sturdy, I could stay here forever.

"Now, what's wrong, Spinnet?" he asks. My anger surfaces again.

"OH, SO IT'S SPINNET STILL! YOU COMPLEMENT THE OTHERS WHILE YOU ARE COMMENTATING, BUT NEVER ME! OR FRED AND GEORGE! WHEN YOU TALK TO ANGELINA OR KATIE, YOU CALL THEM BY THEIR FIRST NAMES! BUT YOU STILL CALL ME SPINNET! WHY?!" I cry, tears rolling down my face.

He hugs me again and plants a kiss in my hair. I sigh dreamily.

"Because you're too beautiful to complement. I call you Spinnet and not Alicia because I like it better. I will call you Alicia if you want. But, no matter what I call you, I will still like you. No matter what." he murmurs.

I smile and pull him down to my height. I kiss him. He wraps his arms around my waist and mine get lost in my hair. His lips were so soft, and once his tongue was in my mouth, I could taste all the sweets he loved to eat; Honeydukes finest chocolate, toffee, and Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans.

Mmm... a girl could get used to this. But he soon pulled away.

"Alicia, look, I really like you, and if you don't like me... then I don't think I can be with you. I really, really like you, and I never complement you or call you Alicia because I was afraid I would get on your bad side, and Alicia, I really like you and I hope you do too, but if you don't then I guess this is good bye." he rambled anxiously.

I smiled and replied, "Of course I like you, Lee. Would you go out with me?"

He nods excitedly and we walk into the common room hand in hand.
