The rest of your week consists of spending most of your days with the trio or the twins. You had had a really weird class of divination where Professor Trelawney started freaking out about you and Harry having 'The grim' or something, you don't have a clue what that was all about. Adding to your week, Sirius Black was also sighted in Duff town which made you a bit worried but you just shake it off, he's not going to come looking for you. He has no reason to, right? Also, after a long discussion with Fred and George, you decided you were going to try out to be one of the chasers on the quidditch team. And now here you are, on a crisp Sunday morning, walking to the quidditch pitch with Fred, George and Harry for try outs.

"I don't even want to do this, I'm going to make a fool out of myself! People will start adding 'Shittest quidditch player' to their list of names for me. Also look how worn out my broom is!" you complain

"That means you've used it a lot so I know you have played. Y/n you will be perfectly fine, there's not loads of us! I promise their will be people who are really really bad, there always is. " Fred explains

"Yeah. Me. I'm going to be the really bad one." you say flatly

"You. Will. Be. Fine." says Harry as he shakes you by your shoulders back and forth.

"Okay fine, but I'm blaming you guys if I get made fun of." you point at all three of them

You walk over to a group of around 20 people. Great. You listen to Oliver Wood explain what he's looking for and what you're going to be doing, you get quiet nervous but the boys keep giving you reassuring smiles which makes you feel a bit more relaxed. Oliver got the Gryffindor prefects to come along and help him in choosing who will be put on the team.

"This will be my last chance to win the quidditch tournament before I leave Hogwarts at the end of this year, so I don't want any messing around. I want players who are going to take this seriously and do whatever they can for the team. Got it?" Oliver explains shortly followed by nods from everybody listening.

"Good. Now, I'm going to split you in half and make you play against each other. It won't be judged by what team wins, but by who can work well with others and is actually good at playing. Obviously I will be the keeper on the official team, but I will need reserves so, yeah. Let's go." he says. He splits you all into two teams and asks each team what everybody is playing as.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Okay, this team. Who's who?" Oliver aks

"Beaters." Fred and George say at the same time.

"Seeker." says Harry

"Chaser" says some girl in the year above 

"Me too" says a girl who you recognise from your classes.

"And you y/n?" Oliver asks

"Oh, chaser."

"Brilliant, well good luck." Oliver says before walking away to sort out the other team. 

You talk through some game plans with your team and start getting ready to play.

*oh god I'm so scared. no y/n stop being a prat. you can easily do this.*

You all set up in your places and start playing.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Holy shit y/n! Why didn't you just admit you could play!" Fred says shocked whilst lightly hitting your arm in a playful way.

"Oh seriously Fred, I'm not that good! You are far better than me." you roll your eyes

Fred pulls a 'shut the fuck up' kind of face "No I'm serious y/n! You have so much talent, you will definitely make the team." 

"I'm not sure I will, everybody was so good." you say back.

"Just be confident in yourself for once y/n." 

"I am confident. Just not with quidditch."

"You have serious talent y/n, okay? I'm not lying." He says seriously.

"Okay whatever. Oliver's calling us over, let's go."

You and Fred join the others. "Well done out there everybody, it's going to be a tough decision to choose the main players this year. We will let you guys know as soon as we can. You can all head back now, thanks for coming!" he waves you all off.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"So.. you tried out for quidditch?" Hermione asks whilst brushing her hair.

"Yeah, I think it went okay. Fred said I did really good but I don't know. Everybody there was so good, I don't think I'll make the team. Wait, how did you know I tried out, I never mentioned it to you? " you ask whilst feeding Lyra.

"Harry told me at dinner whilst you were missing. Where were you?" she asks

"Oh I was in here researching about that thing Professor Trelawney said me and Harry have. The grim."

"Oh y/n, I wouldn't get worked up about it. That class is ridiculous, she's just making stuff up." Hermione shakes her head

"I just think it's a bit of a coincidence you know? My uncle has all of a sudden escaped Azkaban somehow, and then I get some sign of an 'omen of death'. It's a bit weird if you ask me." you say

"Honestly y/n, I wouldn't get yourself wrapped up in all that rubbish. You are perfectly safe here, you'll be fine." she said with a reassuring smile

"I'm sure your right." you smile back

"Oh, I haven't told you yet! Apparently we're doing boggarts in defence against the dark arts tomorrow." she says 

"Really?" 

"I heard a few students talking about it, I'm not certain though." she says

"Oh. I wonder what my boggart is." you question whilst getting into bed

"Well, I guess we'll find out tomorrow. That's if we are even doing it, of course." she says whilst also getting into bed

"Good night 'mione."

"Good night y/n"
