I shifted around as I slowly woke up. Before I could open my eyes, however, I heard a loud click and a bright flash of light hit my closed eyelids. I groaned as I sat up and blinked my eyes groggily.327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDWe1Hmp37

"Not much, just thought we'd wake the sleeping princess before she was late to class." I blushed at the nickname and rubbed my eyes. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgNzeRBZ3n

"Oh my gawd, I can't believe I slept in so late!" I cried. Something shifted behind me.327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wJNJKEcU9

"Huh? I'm up, what's going on? What's wrong?" I heard Harry shout as he struggled to sit up next to me.327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmA2ykFiCZB

"Nothin, mate. The princess was just having a tantrum is all." I grabbed one of the couch cushions and whacked George in the face.327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYhtF46ojO
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uhBOFU8M4
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MCLwEEs9T
"George Weasley, I was NOT having a tantrum!' I shouted as I felt my face redden. There was a pause as we all realized what I'd done. Then we all burst out laughing again this time with Harry joining in.327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UG4onZfUg

327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BkrTtWZFH
"C'mon Harry! We're gonna be late if we don't hurry up and get ready!" I shouted as I yanked him from the couch and shoved him to the stairs to the boys dormitories. "I'll see you at breakfast!" I cried as I pushed open the portrait of the Fat Lady and clambered out. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOxLDBfDBK

"oohhh...look at Malfoy's face!"I giggled as Harry, Ron, and I walked into the great hall for breakfast. Malfoy's jaw had dropped as he saw that we were still here.327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsittIougdz

"ya know, it was almost worth getting eaten by a giant three-headed dog, just to see that ole' git's face" Ron chuckled as we sat down and began to eat. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIXtLRZ7Nd

As the owls flooded into the Great Hall as usual, our attention was caught at once by two long, thin packages carried by twelve large screech owls. I was just as amazed as Harry when the owls soared down and dropped the parcels in front of us, knocking my bacon to the floor. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSpG6WAMRO

Luckily, Harry and I ripped open the letters first because it said:DO NOT OPEN THE PARCEL AT THE TABLE. It contains your new Nimbus Two Thousand, but I don't want everybody knowing you've got a broomstick or they'll all want one. Oliver Wood will meet you tonight on the Quidditch field at seven o'clock for your first training session. Professor McGonagall 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cF1GhHdlU

I bounced up and down in my seat barely containing my glee. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDj0021t1w7

327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVr7qeyygB9
"Nimbus Two Thousands!" Ron moaned enviously. "I've never even touched one." We left the hall quickly, wanting to unwrap the broomsticks in private before our first class, but halfway across the entrance hall I found the way upstairs barred by Crabbe and Goyle. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdxrX5ZaDN

327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQqLdQntBu
Malfoy seized the package from my hands and felt it. "That's a broomstick," he said, throwing it back to me with a mixture of jealousy and spite on his face. "You'll be in for it this time, Potter, Katrina. First years aren't allowed them." Ron couldn't resist it. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BMrSEvxS2
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7vIxuiLOY
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14jwIu0fjg
"They're not just any old broomsticks," he said, "those are Nimbus Two Thousands. What did you say you've got at home, Malfoy, a Comet Two Sixty?" Ron grinned at us. "Comets look flashy, but they're not in the same league as the Nimbus."327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64TFZqmK0W

"What would you know about it, Weasley, you couldn't afford half the handle," Malfoy snapped back. "I suppose you and your brothers have to save up twig by twig." Before Ron could answer or I could punch Malfoy, Professor Flitwick appeared at Malfoy's elbow. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7XntbrcPj

327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VxeBSdD3o
"Yes, yes, that's right," said Professor Flitwick, beaming at Harry and I. "Professor McGonagall told me all about the special circumstances. And what model is it?" 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMzHxjcsex

"A Nimbus Two Thousand, sir," said Harry, as I was fighting not to laugh at the look of horror on Malfoy's face. "And it's really thanks to Malfoy here that we've got them," he added. We headed upstairs and got ready for class, smothering our laughter at Malfoy's obvious rage and confusion. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUALwlbKtjF

As seven o'clock drew nearer, Harry and I left the castle and set off in the dusk toward the Quidditch field. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFOOtMlCVw

"I'm so excited, Harry!" I squealed as we made our way to the stadium. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5W2HULCyk
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRpl0vChAC
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnYJasFdTC
My jaw dropped as we stepped onto the field. I had never been inside the stadium before. Hundreds of seats were raised in stands around the field so that the spectators were high enough to see what was going on. At either end of the field were three golden poles with hoops on the end. They reminded me of the little plastic sticks Muggle children blew bubbles through, except that they were fifty feet high. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShXQtkhJb5

"Are you really? I had no idea!" Said Harry, rolling his eyes but smiling over at me. He has such a cute smile, I thought to myself before realizing what I was thinking. I blushed and ran over to where Oliver stood beside a giant chest that contained several oddly shaped balls. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjys3pQetD

327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXDZIfIqrx
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUs7x2PN3W
"Hey, Katrina, Harry. You guys ready?" We both nodded our heads furiously in agreement. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tkQKoc1gg
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKriAgn1IFg
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQPa825Fma
After Oliver explained the rules to us he released the little golden ball he called the snitch and ordered Harry to fly around trying to catch it. As for me and him, he had us fly over to one set of the golden goal posts and threw a red ball to me that he said was a quaffle. 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡre8TxBznTC

327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyFPQbhHaG
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeBUcEMJ5W
"Fine!" I yelled as I tossed the quaffle as hard as I could towards one of the open posts. I blinked in surprise as I watched it soar through Oliver's hands.327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5ugZxZUAh
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDJHygJqHL
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJSXGoGrAl
"Katrina! Great job. McGonagall was right, you're amazing!" I blushed as Oliver passed the ball to me again. Oliver was so handsome! Every girl in our year thought so, but he was a (fourth?) year so there was no way he'd want anything to do with a first year like me. Besides, I was still trying to sort out my feelings for Harry!327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyapf3vRJQS

"That Quidditch cup'll have our name on it this year," said Oliver happily as we trudged back up to the castle. "I wouldn't be surprised if you turn out better than Charlie Weasley, Harry! and he could have played for England if he hadn't gone off chasing dragons." 327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYqXekxBao

We reached the entrance to my room and I said goodnight to the two of them, promising to see Harry at breakfast the following morning. I shucked of my robes, hopped in the shower, quickly finished the last of my homework for the week (yes I'm an overachiever) and then crashed on my bed from exhaustion.
