It's been a few weeks since Sirius Black had tried to get into the Gryffindor common room. None of the teachers could figure out how he had managed to get into the castle unnoticed. I find Harry sat at the Gryffindor table with the rest of the Gryffindor Quidditch team looking at his breakfast bowl. I take a seat next to him.

"You okay Harry? It's only Hufflepuff you've beaten them every time you've played them"

"It's not that Ror, It's the dementors presence thats making me more nervous you've seen the effect they have on me" I wrap an arm around him.

"Don't worry about it too much Dumbledore will be there so nothing bad will happen to you. Now I could be wrong but I doubt it" I wink at him

"Thanks Rory you always know what to say" He smiles at me.

"Not always" I smile at him before quickly looking at Fred then back to my breakfast. Since Halloween we've barely said a sentence to each other and the worse part is I don't even know what I've done wrong. I push my food around my plate for a little while before deciding I've had enough even though all I managed was to drink a coffee too busy thinking about my best friend who won't speak to me. I stand and walk over to the twins quick before leaving the hall "Good luck guys you'll be great" At my words George stands to give me a hug whilst Fred just nods. As much as it pains me that one of my best friends won't talk to me I wouldn't feel right if I didn't wish him luck like I always have before a game "I'll see you later" I say as I leave the hall running into Ollie just outside.

"Hey Rory" He says quickly peeking me on the lips.

"Hello Ollie. Good luck today I'll be cheering you on" He smiles at me pulling me in for another kiss before he heads into the hall.

"Oh look the uglier Potter finally managed to get a boyfriend" I turn to see Pansy Parkinson a Slytherin in Harry's year.

"I mean everyone has the right to be ugly Pansy but you're over doing it a bit" I smirk at her as I see the anger rising.

"You'll regret that" She snarls.

"I'd agree with you but then we'd both be wrong" She stomps her foot slightly before storming into the hall. I just laugh and head off to see if I can find Ron and Hermione seeing as all my friends and boyfriend are on the Quidditch team. I find them as they're leaving the common room "Hey guys, you going to the match?"

"Yea did you wanna join us" Ron smiles at me.

"If that's alright with you two"

"Fine with me, Hermione?" Ron looks at her distracting her from her book.

"Oh it's fine with me" She smiles at me before going back to her book. We all head down to the stands wrapped in multiple layers ready to brave the elements. The pitch is barely visible as we find our seats.

"Shit it's cold" I mutter. The rain feeling like tiny needles all over my face as I pull my scarf up to cover up to my nose "I hope this is a quick game" I shout to Ron.

We could just about see the teams walking onto the pitch the wind so strong that they all staggered sideways as they walked out onto the field. The cheering crowd barely audible over the wind and thunder. How on earth was Harry going to see the Snitch in this? The Hufflepuff Captain walked to the middle as did Ollie to shake hands. The players all mounted their brooms. Madam Hooch put her whistle to her lips and gave it a blast that sounded shrill and distant and they were off I saw Harry rise fast, but he was swerving slightly with the wind. He managed to hold it as steady as he possible and turned, my guess is he's looking for the snitch although how he's going to spot that in this weather I don't know. He flew backward and forward across the field past blurred red and yellow shapes of the other players. Lee was doing his usual commentary although we could barely hear a word he was saying over the wind. I saw Harry come very close to being unseated by a Bludger twice making me extremely anxious for this game to end. The sky was getting darker, as though night had decided to come early. With the first flash of lightning came the sound of Madam Hooch's whistle and both teams headed for the ground momentarily. I could just about see the Gryffindor team huddled at the edge of the field under a large umbrella. After a few minutes both teams were back in the air flying around again. There was another clap of thunder, followed immediately by forked lightning. This was getting more and more dangerous. Harry needed to get the Snitch quickly. He turned, looking like he was going to head back toward the middle of the field, but at that moment, another flash of lightning illuminated the stands. Harry's hands slipped on his broom handle causing him to drop a few feet. Then I heard Ollie's voice
