8. Quidditch World Cup

It was the next day. Fred was holding on to you tight so you couldn't go, but this time, you didn't disturb him but you watched him breath and asleep. You thought to yourself, how much you loved him.

"Didn't anyone told you that staring at someone while they are asleep is rude ?" he asked you. "Bloody hell ! You are awake and didn't let me go !" You threw a pillow at him.

"Heyyyy !" he woke up. You guys had a pillow fight, cotton all over the bed and floor. You guys were in the middle of the bed, on knees.

He grabbed you by your waist, bringing you closer to him. You guys were staring at each other, eye to eye, you leant to kiss him.

He did as well but your brother accidentally stepped into your room. You guys moved back. "Urm brother ? What up ?" you asked. "I thought you didn't wake up y-yet. I will be in the living room." he said closing the door.

You guys laughed at each other and you went to freshen up, pack your things, tidy the room and left the living room. Fred was now taking a shower.

"Sorry about that !" you said, sitting down beside your brother. "Can see you have a boyfriend, not a friend !" he said.

" No ! These have happened but we haven't spilled out each other's feelings yet." you told him. You told him that you got to go back to Burrow, today, to join your friends. You also told your brother. "...I also have school and there's dorms there, which means I stay there, so I'm probably going to miss you. You can write letters to me and my owl to collect it. You just have to say the person's name you are sending to." you said.

He hugged you and asked sorry for yesterday's night and handed you a chocolate bar. "Awww ! You remembered ! I love you ! Thank you !" you said.

Fred came in, ready to go to burrow. "Alright then ! Bye !" you said hugging him. "Till next time then !" your brother said. "Stay safe during your adventures !" you told him and left. You guys went to a corner where no one comes and used floo powder to transport.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

You guys were there. Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny were going down the stairs in a deep conversation.

"Harry ! Mione ! Ron ! Ginny !" I said, running towards them to hug. They hugged you back. Fred saw that with a smile, his hands in his pocket.

George pushed him a little, smirking at him he whispered to him, "Had a fun two days, didn't you ?". Fred blushed and said, "Shut up George !"

He came behind me while you were telling them how much you missed them. "You didn't miss me ?" he said with a sad face.

I hugged him and said, " OF COURSE I MISS YOU IDIOT !" He hugged me, laughing at my response. George pulled away and helped you to carry your luggage. Fred did the same.

I went to Molly and hugged her from the back. She looked at my face which was on her shoulder. "I miss you !" you said. "Aww dear, me too !" she said. I pulled away.

After a while, dinner was ready. You sat between George and Fred. Once everyone was served they asked about your brother and Aunt May.

"Chill ! Chill ! They are nice ! Peter is his name ! He was easy to get along with. Aunt May is quiet but over protective ! I only realised when some things happen.."

Fred murmured "...Yea ! The accident bullshit !". I continued, " She works over time for us ! Yea and my brother needs to get along more !" I said.

They were happy to hear that. "Y/N made the yummiest breakfast !" Fred said. "No I didn't ! It's a breakfast that everyone is able to make easily !" I told him, smiling.

"Y/N make for us one day please !" George asked and you agreed. You guys ate.

"Alright ! Tomorrow you all need to wake up early ! Off to bed now !" she said, making an announcement.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

You walked up stairs, you felt a hand holding your on the railing you held to walk up the stairs. You turned around, it was Fred.

"I shall help you !" he said as walked up in front of you. "Jump behind me !" he said. You hopped on his back. He carried you up to your room.

He kissed your forehead, you guys said 'goodnight' and Fred returned to his room. You walked to the room.

You saw both of them talking to each other, laughing at each other. You closed the door behind. "Do you mind if i Slyther in ?" you asked them. They laughed and let you join.

They asked you if you opened the Christmas gift Molly gave you. You had forgotten about that. "No ! I forgot ! Let me get it !" you said. You opened it and it was a green sweater with your initial. You smiled at how it matched Fred's sweater. "It's nice !" you walked back to them and said.

"Alright let's sleep ! We have some event to attend tomorrow !" She said with a big smile. You guys went to sleep.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was the next morning. Mione woke you up this time as it was too early. You head to the bathroom, took a quick shower and went down with all the things you need for a week. 

Fred and George were still sleepy. They were beside you, yawning. Harry and Ron were the only ones who were late. They came down and we left.

Ron kept telling Harry how unhappy he was about waking up this early. On the way, we met Mr Diggory followed by Cedric. He looked kinda handsome.

Fred, George, Ron and Harry saw yours, Ginny and Hermione's reaction. You were all staring at him. You went to Mione and Ginny. "You guys ! Wanna talk with him ?" They didn't want to as they were shy. "Fine then !" you said going near him.

"Hey ! I am Y/N Parker ! Where are we going exactly ?" you asked him. "We are going to the Quidditch World Cup !" he said smiling at you. "I have seen you around ! Gryffindor right ?" he asked.

"Welp, yes i am !" you told him. You thought to yourself, 'He notices me !!! He knows i exist !'

"How do you know me ? I have never seen you actually ! Maybe i was clinging on to my best friends a lot !" you said. You guys were in a conversation now.

Fred was jealous seeing you with him. Who were more jealous was Mione and Ginny. Fred joined you and Cedric. "Hey ! I am Fred !" he said.

"It's time !" Mr Diggory said. All of you made your way to circle the boot and grab a hold if it. "After 3. One...Two…" "Harry !" Arthur shouted, Harry jumped and quickly placed his hand onto the boot. "Three !".

There was a white flash and suddenly you were all spinning through the air. "Lets go kids !" Arthur yelled.

You, Fred, George, Harry, Ron, Mione and Ginny fall on the ground. Meanwhile Arthur, Mr Diggory and Cedric all landed rather gracefully.

Cedric saw you laying on the floor and made his way over to you with an outstretched hand. "Need a hand ?" He asked.

You smiled and went to take his hand but Fred pushed him a little . "Nope she's fine !" Fred said as he grabbed your right arm. "I've got her !" he said. "As you wish !" Cedric winked and joined his dad.

"Jealous Freddie ?" you asked and he disagreed. You guys made your way to a tent. From outside the tent looked as if only two people can stay but inside was a home. It could definitely hold at least fifteen people or so.

"Girls. Choose a bunk and unpack. Ron, get out of the kitchen, we're all hungry !" Arthur said.

"Yeah ! Get out of the kitchen Ron !" Both the twins shouted as they sat at the chair, feets on the table.

"Feet off the table." Arthur said.

"Feet off the table." The twins shouted again as they took their feet off the table but the moment Arthur left they put their feet on the table.

After a while, You guys were getting ready for the World Cup. You guys were painting your faces and helping others to paint their faces.

Mione was in charge of Ron, Ginny was in charge of Harry, you were in charge of George and Fred. You applied for George and then for fred. They looked in a mirror and they loved it, as you can see from their expression.

You went to apply for yourself but Fred grabbed your wrist. "Here, let me apply for you !" he said and handed him your paint. George was with Ginny, Harry, Mione and Ron.

He cupped your face with his right hand.You guys were staring at each other. He dragged his thumb down your lips. He then took the paint and applied with his soft fingers. "Done !" he said as you were still staring at him. You looked away and thanked him. You were all ready.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

You all went out for the Quidditch World Cup. Lucius Malfoy and Draco Malfoy teased us for not getting the lower seats. Draco didn't see you. You didn't know why he would not dare to see you. You guys were held back by Arthur and made our way up.

Cedric and Mr Diggory joined you guys. I was standing beside Cedric trying to socialise with him but Fred came beside him and George was on my other side.

"I just wanted to be friends with him ! Why can't you let me ? I am not taken or something ! Don't control me ! I may have regret about Draco but i am more careful now okey !" you said in a angry tone.

You moved beside Cedric and started to have a conversation.

Fred looked jealous. George saw it and asked him, " Jealous Mate ? You should've asked her to be yours but you haven't yet ! So yes she can do whatever she wants !"

On the other side, Mione and Ginny saw you with jealousy but they didn't care when the game started.

"Ladies and gentlemen...welcome ! Welcome to the final of the four hundred and twenty-second Quidditch World Cup !" Everyone started to clap and cheer. You were all excited.

"And now, without further ado, allow me to introduce...the Bulgarian Team Mascots !" 

"I wonder what they'd brought ?" Arthur said.

Suddenly the pitch was filled with but a hundred Veela.

Harry, Ron, Fred, George and Cedric started to lean closer to the edge of the barrier to get a better look of the women. In fact, all of the boys were doing the same.

You, Mione and Ginny rolled your eyes. Ginny pulled Harry back. Mione pulled Ron. You pulled Cedric and Fred then George. They all looked annoyed but Cedric was laughing at you.

"What ?" you asked him. "Nothing !" he said and turned his attention to the match. Fred was still looking at the girls. You hit him by your elbow.

"Heyyy ! Stop !" you said to Fred. "As you said...you aren't allowed to control me !" he said, annoyed.

"You are jealous aren't you ! At Least i was only trying to socialise but you are trying to crush on some girls...and no ! I am not jealous or something !" you said, smirking at turning your attention to the match. "Yea right !" he said, rolling his eyes and turning his attention to the match.

"And now, kindly put your wants in the air...for the Irish National Team Mascots !" A green and gold comet started zoom around the stadium, it suddenly broke off into two and started to dance around the pitch.

Shimmering shamrock now started to glide around above you which resulted in golden coins falling into the crowd. You smiled at the sight. 

"And now, ladies and gentlemen, kindly welcome the Bulgarian National Quidditch Team ! I give you- Dimitrov ! Ivanova ! Zograft ! Levski ! Vulchanov ! Annnndddd- Krum !"

" THAT'S HIM ! THAT'S HIM !" Ron yelled as Krum flew onto the pitch. All the boys roared and cheered at the sight of him. All the boys roared and cheered at the sight of him.

"And now, Please welcome the Irish National Quidditch team presenting- Connolly ! Ryan ! Troy ! Mullet ! Moran Quigley ! Annnndddd Lynch !" The crowd cheered and chanted as the Irish flew onto the pitch.

The game was electric. The game was moving fast that at times it was rather difficult to keep up with what was happening at times but Cedric was giving you a running commentary of what was happening and he was expressing his opinions about the game very heavily suddenly have yelled loud enough to overpower Cedric's voice.

"He's seen the snitch ! Hes's seen it ! Look at him go !" Lynch and Krum were now diving to the snitch.

"They are going to crash !" Mione shrieked.

"They're not !" Ron yelled.

"Lynch is !" Harry added. Harry was right, Lynch crashed into the ground and was stampeded but a hoard of veela.

"The snitch, Where's the snitch ?" Fred yelled.

" He's got it - Krum's got it - it's all over !" Harry shouted.

Sure enough Krum was holding the Snitch up with a bloody nose as the crowd screamed and cheered.

"They've lost anyway." You said to Harry.

"What ! No they haven't ! They caught the Snitch !" Fred replied.

"No Fred ! She's right !" Harry replied.

"Look at the scores ! Krum caught it when Ireland were a hundred and sixty points up." Cedric said to Fred.

"That ! Idiot !" Fred said, mad.

You clapped for both teams as the match ended.

You all went back to the tent. You said goodnight to everyone and crashed onto your bed and fell asleep.

"Y/N ! Y/N ! WAKE UP !" he said, waking you up. You heard screams and cries coming from outside. "WHAT'S HAPPENING ? Is it your pranks ?!" you asked. "What ?! NO ! If there's anything you need ! Put inside your bag and Let's GO ! Hurry ! " he said.
