harry potter x reader | quidditch tryouts

You were sitting on the edge of your seat watching the clock as the seconds went by. It was quidditch tryout day, you had been on the team since your first year. You and Oliver Wood were really close, you considered each other siblings, but when he graduated last year he gave the captain position to harry potter. You weren't upset, it's not like you were trying to be captain but harry decided that everyone had to tryout, including people who were already on the team. All you could think about while walking through the halls on the way to the common room was what if, what if you didn't make the team and everything you looked forward to in the future was just taken away. It's not like you could become a pro quidditch star if you couldn't make the team at tryouts. While becoming lost in your thoughts you didn't even realize you were about to run into someone until it had happened. You felt your body being thrown back a little bit but you managed to stay standing. You snap out of your thoughts and notice you walked right into Harry.

"I am so sorry I really didn't mean to" you said quietly while you bend down to help him pick up the books he dropped

"It's okay y/n, it happens" he chuckles

"Are you okay? I didn't hurt you right" you ask with a worried expression on your face

"No no i'm okay, are you alright?" he asks

"I think so" you reply, but notice his eyes scanning your cheek

"What? Do I have something on my face?" you ask a little embarrassed

"You've got a little cut on your cheek" he says as he brings his hand up to cup your chin and turn your head

You blush a bit at the contact and how close your faces are. He runs his finger across the small cut. Your entire body tingles at the sensation. You look up from the floor to see his eyes scanning your face. When he notices that he see him he drops his hand from your chin and it suddenly becomes awkward.

"I should probably go get this cleaned up, I think i've got a bandage in the dorm" you say trying to break the silence

"Yeah okay, that sounds good, um I'll see you at quidditch tryouts then" he asks a little flustered

"Of course, I wouldn't miss it" you reply with a hint of confidence at the subject change

He walks past you overwhelming your senses with the scent his cologne. You two had always been friends, not close friends but you would talk to him during quidditch practice and you were partners in classes a few times. Did you have feelings for him or was it simply just the lack of physical contact that you were desperate for?

As you're getting ready for quidditch tryouts Katie Bell busts into the dorm, she, of course was already dressed and prepared for tryouts half an hour before you started getting ready. She was your bestfriend, well one of your only friends.

"When were you going to tell me you had a moment with potter?" she asks with a huge grin on her face

"What are you talking about Katie?" you ask laughing quietly while also blushing a bit

"In the hallway dummy" she asks hitting the back of my head then sitting down on her bed

"That was nothing, I ran into him, literally, he dropped his books, I helped him pick them up, he noticed a cut on my cheek and then we walked our separate ways" I say trying to convince her that we were just friends who bumped into each other

"Mhm, I don't believe you but you need to be focused on tryouts so i'll leave it alone, for now" she says still smirking

"You do that Bell" I say laughing and walking out the room towards the quidditch field
