The Potters and the Philosopher's Stone (COMPLETED)

Quidditch and Christmas

*Hannah's P.O.V*

"You've got to eat both of you," Ron said earnestly at breakfast

 "I'm too nervous to," I whispered pushing a plate of toast away

"Ron's right, you need you energy," Hermione agreed, pushing it back

 "I'm not hungry," Harry mumbled

"Good luck today Potter," said a cold voice

I looked up suddenly. Snape stood there. He looked down at me, into my emerald green eyes. I blinked.

"Lily, Lily, Lily I'm sure after defeating a troll, a little game of Quidditch will be no trouble at all," he said "Even if it is against Slytherin."

I blinked again.

"Bu-but I-" I stammered

Then I pulled myself together. I grabbed a lock of my hair and dropped it in front of my eyes. I knew Mum didn't have black hair, Hagrid did say that I had Dad's hair colour. His eyes turned to slits as it had done in our first Potion's lesson. He limped away, looking slightly embarrassed.

"What the hell?" said Ron "What was that all about?"

 "Oh you know I've got my Dad's hair colour, and he thinks I'm my Mum because I have the same eye-colour so yeah," I said "If that made any sense at all."

We watched him limping away. Harry stared and said, "That explains the blood."

Hermione frowned.

"Blood?" she repeated

 "Listen, last night I think he let the troll in so he could try to get past that three headed dog but he got bitten," Harry said in an undertone

"But why would anyone go near that dog?" Hermione asked

"When we were at Gringotts, Hannah and I, Hagrid took something out of the vaults and said it was Hogwarts business, secret," Harry explained

"So you're saying-" Ron said

 "That's what the dog's guarding, that's what Snape wants," I said

We waited to walk out onto the Quidditch Pitch. I felt butterflies in my stomach. I felt like I was going to throw up on someone.

"Scared Harry, Hannah?" asked Wood

 "A little," I admitted

"It's all right," Wood said "I felt the same way before my first game."

 "What happened?" Harry asked curiously

"I took a Bludger to the head, woke up in hospital a week later," Wood said

 "Ugh Oliver!" I said, trying to forget what he had said

Before Oliver could apologise, it was time for us to walk onto the pitch. I swallowed as Oliver shook hands with the Slytherin Captain, Marcus Flint. We mounted our brooms and kicked off when we heard the whistle.

"Hello and welcome to Hogwart's first Quidditch game of the year, todays game Slytherin versus Gryffindor!" Lee Jordan said, who was obviously doing the commentary

Everyone flew around for a bit to get used to flying then the game was ready to start. The Seekers flew above the circle of the rest of the team members. I took my place in between the chasers Angelina Johnson and Alicia Spinnet
