Authors emails foreveralone42@hotmail.com, chris_lerman@hotmail.com Quidditch season was now upon them and the common room was filled with Gryffindor students going on about how good the team was this year now that they had Harry Potter as Seeker they were sure to beat Slythrin and win the Quidditch cup! Harry noticed Fred and George sitting at a table in the corner sniggering about something he was pretty sure they were planning to blow up a toilet or something. Ron had been gone for several hours Professor Mcgonagall had picked him to help her prepare the decorations for the first match, Hermionewas furious over this she figured of all the students she would be the one who would be picked, but Harry was niether mad or unhappy he was nervous because it was going to be his first time playing quidditch he figured he would get out there and make a fool of himself and all of Gryffindor but Ron had assured him on several occasions that he wouldn't, that it was in his blood his father James Potter had once been a seeker for Gryffindor a great seeker matter of factly. Harry got bored of sitting around doing nothing while people walked by him pointing at his forehead and muttering under their breath to each other so he thought he would give Hagrid a visit since it had been well over a month that they had last spoken he trodded over to the portriat hole and pushed the painting of the lady open and walked through shutting it behind him and started down the long corridor and down the stone steps he was just about to go out the front doors when he heard a voice behind him. "There you are!" It was Hermione. "I was on my way to see Hagrid." Harry announced. "You were supposed to meet me in the library about the Sorcerers Stone." "I, I forgot." "I thought this was important to you!" Hermione said in one ofher dissapoiting voices. "It is!" "Well come on then we've got lots to do!" Hermione said turning and throwing her nose into the air. Harry reluctently followed Hermione to the library where they spent the rest of the day searching through all kinds of books "Merwitches beyond the Grave", "Fairy Stones", "Gnome Crystals of Light", and "Magical Wonders of the Wizarding World". It had finally started to turn dark outside and the light began to dimm in the library makeing it harder to read. "I think we need to take this to the Common Room Hermione!" Harry suggested. "Alright grab that stack of books over there ". Hermione pointed at a stack of about eleven books on the floor, Harry gave her a cross look and walked over and tryed to lift the books but they were to heavy. "Need a hand love?" A voice came from behind him, it was Ron. "Yeah thanks Sweetie" as they shared a romantic kiss before Harry passed Ron the stack of books and off he, Ron, and Hermione went back to the Common Room as they climbed the stone steps they reach the painting of the lady and gave the latest password and climbed through they noticed by the great stone fireplace Oliver and Charlie snuggled together talking and kissing and just enjoying the fact that they were together but they knew that after the Quidditch Match Charlie had to be going back but they also knew Christmas was coming soon and that they would all be together again so it was ok. Harry and Ron walked over to the big wooden table in the corner of the Common Room smiling at Oliver and Charlie knowing that they had done a wonderful thing in helping them as Oliver and Charlie had helped them notice that they really did love one another. Hermione followed slamming her stack of books down on the table and stuffing her nose in "Wizarding Wonders of the Eighteenth Centery". Ron looked at Harry and rolled his eyes around and Harry just smiled at him and started to search. Their searching didn't last long for the whispers from Oliver and Charlie were to distracting for Hermione and so she took the stack of books and turned to Harry and Ron and said "Im going to take the books to my Dormitory and read them over" and away she stomped off leaving Harry and Ron to giggle and begin to kiss one another.. "I love you Ollie!" "I love you to Charlie....Look at Harry and Ron over there by the fire they look so cute together" "Yeah, they sure do...Hey Harry, Ron, why don't you come and join us over here" Harry and Ron then got up and brought over two chairs and they all began talking... "Harry, how you feeling about the Match?" Oliver asked him while Stroking Charlie's hair "Im nervous!" "I know you'll do great Harry and we all will be there rooting for you and we know you will be just Great out there" Ron jumped up and placed his arms lovingly around Harry and beaming with love Harry looked at Ron and Ron looked at Harry and they both smiled deeply at each other and noticed that Oliver and Charlie were doing the same thing "I think we all ought to get to sleep since it is almost dawn" yawned Charlie as he led Oliver up to the dormitory and Harry did the same with Ron . Harry sat next to Ron at breakfast the next morning and was thinking that today was going to be a really wonderful day. After breakfast Ron Harry and Hermione started off towards Potions but not looking forward to it at all, once they got to the dungeons Malfoy was already there with his slicked back blonde hair he glared at Harry with an evil look in his eyes. "You may think the whole school is behind your stupid queer thing but to tell you the truth Potter!... Weasley! Everyone's just laughing behind your backs you actually think people...The normal people here at Hogwarts think you are famous now Potter they all think your a no good mudblood loving faggot! You had better watch your back from now on Potter! You are liable to find a dagger in it." Malfoy sniggered evily looking from Harry to Ron. "You take that back NOW Malfoy!" Harry and Ron both stood there looking at Malfoy Harry's face looking very dark and ominus while Ron's was full of worry about what was going to happen to Harry. "NO I will not and why don't you MAKE ME!" Harry's face turned a frightfull red his hands binded into tight fists Malfoy started for his wand. "What's this! What are you doing get in class lessons are about to start." Snape snapped guiding Malfoy in gracefully. Giving Hermione a glare of death as she walked past him them sticking his arm out preventing Harry or Ron from passing through the door Snape then turned on his heels and slammed the door in Harry and Ron's face. "What was that all about?" Ron asked looking at Harry "you know good and well what it's all about and i'm going to see Professor Dumbledore!" Harry marched off with Ron tagging behind him worrying that Harry was going to do something rash as they were going past the great hall they heard someone sniggering they came to a complete stop and looked around trying to figure out where it was coming from when they heard a soothing voice behind them. "Harry?" Ron and Harry both turned around to see Professor Dumbledore. "What may I ask are you doing out of your lessons?" "Snape wouldn't let us in he shut the door in our face!" Harry and Ron said together. "Ah I see now and there is no need to worry Harry for I am the one who told him not to let you in class although I can't seem to remember telling him to stop Ron either or slamming the door Ah well." Dumbledore said as he started to walk away. "Why did you do that?" Harry demanded with tears in his eyes and Ron holding onto his hand with Professor Dumbeldore smiling his approval ! Dumbledore turned and faced Harry and Ron once more. "There are many resons why we should hate Harry but many more resons for us to love can you not think of why I would do this Harry?" Dumbledore said and turned once more and left Harry speechless. "What was he talking about Harry?" Ron asked. "H- he knew what I was thinking! B-b, back in the dungeon." "What were you thinking Harry?" Ron asked with fear and instant worry written large across his face "Somthing that I might have really done if Dumbledore hadn't got to Snape before I had time to pull my wand." "What was it Harry?" "Unforgivable curse!" Harry mumbled. "HARRY! You are not actually serious? he's not worth that Harry! And I love you way to much to loose you to Azkaban!" TO BE CONTINUED!
