Chapter 10 : Qudditch tryouts

3rd Person POV :

"D-Did you send me the letters?" Alicia asked (Y/N), shocked. She caught up on what Alicia was thinking. But she put on a look of confusion on her face, and asked her

"Letters?....What letters?"

"Never mind!"

"Are you so excited that you are ten minutes earlier than the time your secret admirer mentioned!"

"How - How do you-"

But (Y/N) already started walking away. When she reached the door, she waved her wand and many candles, that were invisible till then, started burning and in the middle was a picnic blanket, with food items and in the middle of the blanket, sat the one and only George Weasley.

"Have fun!!" was the last words of (Y/N) before she left the tower.

"Where were you?" she expected to see Cedric but saw Alex leaning against the wall outside the great hall.

"Whoa....no need to be so disappointed. I will leave if you don't want me here."

"No..No...It's just I thought you were Ced. He's been spending less and less time with me now-a-days."

"Hey...Come on....he's just having a crush. He'll come around."

" guess you are right!"

"I'm always right!"

"You are too humble for your own good Messon!" she told him. Anyone could literally see the sarcasm dripping from her words.

"Gee, thanks!" He replied with the same sarcasm "Really feeling the love, (Y/L/N)!"

"What can I say. I just love everyone, even nutjobs." She told him and they laughed. But her smile fell, as soon as they entered the great hall. Cedric was sitting in the Ravenclaw table again. Her feelings for him had started to become stronger, once she realized she had them. It really pained her, not because he was having a crush on some other girl. If he was happy, then she was too. That's how she loved him. But he was her best friend for past 5 years and now he was drifting away from her. Alex followed her gaze and frowned.

Then he turned to her and cheerfully asked

"Shall we eat at the kitchen today?"

That idiot knew how to make her smile! "Race you there!" she told him and started running.

"You are such a child! When will you start growing up?" Alex asked her, still catching his breath.

"Why should I ?" I retorted and he shook his head smiling.

After having lunch in the kitchen, they had Herbology, the last class, and qudditch tryouts after that.

(Y/N) was a keeper but they had tryouts for each position, every year. It was their belief that, that was how a fair captain behaved. So, there she was, in her qudditch robes, her Nimbus 2001 in her hands, standing in the queue. Cedric was the seeker and Alex was the chaser the previous year, and he was trying out for the same that year.

Alex was a chaser against (Y/N) with two other people from younger years, who had been selected as the team chasers, and she was guarding the loops. She stopped four out of their five tries to score and got selected as the keeper. All the time, Cho was sitting in the stands with her friend, watching Cedric. She thought he invited her. As soon as the try outs got over, he flew to Cho and they began talking.

"Don't mind me." She muttered to herself. Last 3 years, he would fly to her after the tryouts got over, and they would have a race around the pitch. He was now breaking another tradition for his crush.

"Am I a joke to you?!!" She mumbled in frustration as she got off her broom. Suddenly, she was pushed, into the muddy puddle, from behind. She yelped and someone laughed. She turned to find the culprit only to see Alex doubled over laughing. Her lower body was covered in mud.

"You are so dead!" She sneered.

"Oh yeah! what are you gonna do about it?" He taunted her. She walked to him and tackled him in a hug, smearing the mud all over his body too. His jaw dropped in shock and he began chasing her. As she was running, she tripped and fell on her back. Before she could get up, Alex had picked her up and thrown her over his shoulders in a fire man carry. The few people standing there were watching them in amusement and began laughing as he carried her away.

"Put me down, you stupid cheese potato!"

"I am not a cheese potato!" He mused at her strange swearing!

"So, you accept you are a stooooopeeed?" she asked him and he groaned and they both laughed.

When one door closes, another opens. If one best friend leaves you, another comes!
