"Come on Ron!" I cheer loudly as the Hufflepuff team blew past the Slytherin stands. "You got this!" But he didn't and Hufflepuff scores again.
"Ooo another ten points to Hufflepuff," Lee announces, "There goes Angelina Johnson- and a bat to her face but her own teammate! That's gotta sting."
"Come on guys!" I cheer loudly, "You can do this."
"And and- Ginny Weasley's caught the snitch! that's the game Hufflepuff up by ten," Lee announces. I sigh as I look at Draco, "that was pathetic, 20 minutes."
"I wasn't going to say anything," Draco says as we file out.
"Well. It was only ten points. Okay, it could have been worse," I say to him, "can we say anything. We lost against puff because Graham's a horrible captain."
"Well, when you replace him we better be undefeated," Draco says. I smirk.
"Well, I can try," I say to him.

"Is that your interview?" I ask Harry as I sit beside with them at the Gryffindor table with Luna. Harry nods as he hands it to me.
"HARRY POTTER SPEAKS OUT AT LAST: THE TRUTH ABOUT HE-WHO-MUST-NOT-BE-NAMED AND THE NIGHT I SAW HIM RETURN" The headline reads. I smile proudly at him as I skim through the article.
"This is amazing," I tell him, "this is what you needed out for you. And these are?" I ask referring to the piles of letters around him.
"I expect all these," Luna says "are letters from readers."
"That's what I thought," Hermione says eagerly, "Harry, d'you mind if we—?"
"Help yourself," Harry says. Ron and Hermione eagerly grab letters while I hesitate.
"Last time letters came in like this we got those potions sent to us remember Mione?" I ask her.
"You'll be fine," She says. I sigh before taking one and opening it carefully.
"This one's from a bloke who thinks you're off your rocker," Ron says glancing down his letter. "Ah well..."
"This woman recommends you try a good course of Shock Spells at St. Mungo's," Hermione says looking disappointed and crumpling up a second.
"This one looks okay, though," Harry says slowly, "Hey, she says she believes me!"
"This man believes you," I say, "he even said how hard it was for him to admit Voldemort's return."
"This one's in two minds," Fred says from beside me, "Says you don't come across as a mad person, but he really doesn't want to believe You-Know-Who's back so he doesn't know what to think now... Blimey, what a waste of parchment..." I grab another and pull it open.
"Here's another one you've convinced, Harry!" Hermione says excitedly. "'Having read your side of the story I am forced to the conclusion that the Daily Prophet has treated you very unfairly... Little though I want to think that He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named has returned, I am forced to accept that you are telling the truth...' Oh, this is wonderful!"
"Another one whos torn... but she wishes you the best," I say as I place it on the table.
"Another one who thinks you're barking," Ron says throwing a crumpled letter over his shoulder, "but this one says you've got her converted, and she now thinks you're a real hero—she's put in a photograph too—wow—"
"What is going on here?" a falsely sweet girlish voice says from behind me. I look at Harry as he looks up to Umbridge. "Why have you got all these letters, Mr. Potter?" she asks slowly.
