Chapter 3- The scene during the Quidditch tryouts
Today was the day of tryouts for the new Quidditch team, and Katie Bell, the captain of this year's team, scheduled it to be at 8:30 in the morning since she wanted to train the new team as soon as possible.
Even though Harry had a good chance at being on the team as seeker again this year, he was still nervous, because Cormac Mclaggen (someone please tell me how to spell this guy's name correctly) was also trying out, and by the looks of it, he had a pretty good chance too.
"Everybody, please quiet down!" came the voice of Katie Bell," Now this year, we have tryouts for seeker, two new beaters, the two other chasers, and keeper. Even if you were on last year's team, you still have to try out. Is that clear?"
Everyone nodded and started to go back to getting the broomstick that they want.
"So Harry, I heard that you're trying out for the seeker position this year," Mclaggen said to Harry, without really looking at him.
"Yeah," replied Harry," but don't you think that you would be a better beater? I mean you look more like a person with a beater's build."
Cormac caught a fly that was flying by before answering Harry," Nah, I think that I have my chances at seeker."
"Do you think that you could introduce me to you friend Granger?" asked Cormac looking over at Hermione sitting on the stands.
Harry looked over too, and Hermione waved at him when she saw him look at her.
"I wouldn't mind getting on a first names basis, know what I mean?" continued Mclaggen and he walked away leaving a very uncomfortable and nervous Harry.
The tryouts already started, and Harry was up in the sky looking for his practice snitch, but was having a very hard time finding it considering he could barely stay on his broom, meanwhile Cormac was having a very easy time catching his practice snitch almost every 15 minutes.
Hermione was sitting at the stands and noticed that Harry was having trouble finding his snitch, and decided to give him a helping hand, so she used the Confundus charm on Cormac, giving Harry a chance to catch up in getting the snitch.
In the end, Harry managed to pull it off, and catch the snitch a numerous of times more than Cormac.
The trio was in the Gryffindor common room after the tryouts, and Harry was reading his potions book, Hermione was looking at the Daily Prophet, and Ron was just sitting there doing nothing.
"You know Hermione, Cormac seems to be interested in you" Harry started, trying to find out if Hermione had feelings for that slimy git, or the possibility of her having feelings for someone else, meaning him.
"Well I am not interested in him, he's vile," said Hermione.
"Are you sure? He seemed to really have a thing for you." Harry asked.
"Yes I am sure, and why all of a sudden are you so interested if I like him or not?" Hermione asked back.
"I was just curious," replied Harry.
After a couple of minutes of silence Harry asked Hermione another question.
"So are you interested in anybody at school?"
"Oh um, uh no." said Hermione nervously, not looking Harry in the eye.
"Can you please stop asking me questions about my love-life?" asked Hermione in a voice she hoped that sounded irritated.
"Ok, I'll stop" said Harry.
Harry was satisfied, and could tell that Hermione liked someone, when she didn't look at him, and that the someone that she liked could very possibly be him.
