FORBIDDEN FEELINGS

Chapter 20- It's Really Cold

Lmaooo this chapter name is so bad but yeah, enjoy ahahaha.

It's Saturday 11th December, and there's a massive Quidditch match against Gryffindor and Slytherin today. Its been snowing all week and it's still snowing today. We're soooo cold and all Ron's been doing this week is complaining about it.

We all sit in the common room in our coats, waiting for Professor McGonagall to take us to our seats. We all have a hot chocolate as the heating isn't working. Harry is obviously not with us at the moment because he's getting ready for the game.

"I hope Gryffindor wins" Seamus says.

"They will" Hermione replies. I wish I were as positive as her.

Professor McGonagall takes us to our seats and we're all shivering. "I hope this game is quick. I'm bloody freezing" Ron complains.

"Oh, be quiet Ron. All you do is complain" Hermione barks.

"I don't complain that much"

"You've been complaining all week"

"To be fair, you have been complaining all week" I interrupt.

"I didn't come here to get a bollock in, I'm only here to watch Harry. Then I'm going inside, where the heating isn't even bloody working" Ron complains again.

Hermione shakes her head and I roll my eyes.

Sorry idk that much about Quidditch so please tell me if i've got something wrong :)

The game starts and Slytherin score almost immediately. They're actually really good. After a few intense minutes Gryffindor score making it 10-10. We all cheer in excitement. I hope they win. Suddenly Slytherin score again. This is getting intense. I take my gloves off as my hands are sweating. Thank God Gryffindor score making it 20-20. All the players look really sweaty. Slytherin score again. What is happening? 

After about an hour the score is 50-50. Everyone's getting tired and cold now. I hope Harry catches the snitch so this game can be over.

An hour and a half pass and the score is 100-100. It's 5pm and we all want to go inside because we're all bored and cold. Harry better catch that snitch now. Malfoy and Harry are both chasing after the snitch. Come on Harry. Thank God! He catches it and the game is finally over. GRYFFINDOR WINS!!!! We all scream with excitement. The students in Slytherin don't look so happy haha. I see Malfoy stomp off like a toddler. It's so funny.

When we get back to the common room, the Quidditch players run in and we all cheer together. We have to wait until 8pm to eat our victory dinner as the rest of the houses eat before us.

We all dress up in red clothing to represent Gryffindor and we head to the Great Hall to find a luxurious meal set out for us. Harry stands up and taps a knife against a glass to get everyone's attention. Everyone goes silent. "Thank you everyone for being here tonight" Harry starts.

"We didn't have a choice" One of the twins shout, causing everyone to laugh.

"Thanks Fred" Harry says, quite embarrassed.

"I'm George!" The twin shouts.

"Oh, sorry George"

"Nah I'm joking. I am Fred"

"Right. Anyway. We've had such a good term this year and we've earned a lot of house points since September when we went back to zero. But we've come back around, haven't we guys?"

Everyone sits in silence. I shout, "Yes Harry, we have!" which causes him to blush and others to laugh.

"I just want to say- "

A voice shouts "Can we eat now?" which makes everyone laugh again.

Harry smiles and says "So cheers to being the best house in Hogwarts!"

Everyone stands up and shouts "Cheers" whilst clinking all our glasses together and taking a sip of butter beer. We all sit down again. "Nice one, Harry" I say, making him smile.

"Really funny, mate" Ron says whilst tucking into his roast potatoes.

"Wasn't meant to be" Harry replies.

"Well it was"

There's an awkward silence.

"I can't believe I've almost been here a whole term" I say, breaking the awkwardness.

"I know. It feels like you've been here for years" Hermione adds.

"I'm so glad you came, Jessa. It would've been so different without ya" Neville exclaims.

"Aw I love you guys. None of my friends in the Muggle world were like this. It means so much to have you lot around. You're all so special to me and I don't know what I'd do without you guys" they give me a smile and we enjoy the rest of the meal.

Professor McGonagall gets our attention and announces "Next Saturday we will be hosting a Christmas ball to celebrate the end of a term. We will be going to Diagon Alley tomorrow at 9 in the morning to get your formal outfits for the event. The other houses were informed already about this an hour ago. So, now it's time to go back to your common room as you've earned an extra hour after 10pm. But please make sure you are all in your dorms by 11 as we've got to get up in the morning. Thank you"

We all head to the common room and play games such as Charades and then we all head to bed.

The next morning, we go to Diagon Alley to get our outfits. We go into the shop 'Madam Malkin's'. Me and Hermione are almost here an hour, looking for the perfect dress. Whereas the boys take about 10 minutes to get a suit and leave. I buy the perfect dress with all my money.

As Hermione and I are walking out, Malfoy bashes into my shoulder harshly with Zabini, Crabbe and Goyle behind him. "Watch where you're going, Carter" he spits, looking me up and down. "You were the one who walked into me" I snap back.

"Will you two just stop arguing?" Hermione shouts whilst dragging me away from him.

"You guys really need to stop arguing all the time. It's getting annoying now" she says, looking really annoyed.

"But I hate him" I reply.

"We all hate him, but do you see us quarrelling all the time?"

"No"

"Exactly"

"Sorry Hermione"

"Let's go"

We walk back to the boys.
