By the near end of the day Ara was tired,Bree fell asleep in History of Magic while Alena was still hyper as ever to get to flying class

"I might skip dinner"Bree yawns

Ara smiles"Good because it you fall asleep in your poatato's I won't wake you"

Bree rolls her eyes smiling"Good to know"

"Why are you to so tired"Alena asks

"Binns put me to sleep"Bree frowns"I still feel tired"

Ara sighs"I woke up a few times last night,I'm still tired"

As they got to the Field Bree looks up at the stands"Hey look Cedric is watching"She nudges Ara giggling"Maybe for you"Alena adds teasingly

Ara rolls her eyes"Shut up the both of you"

Madam Hooch walks up"After noon class!What are you waiting for?Everyone stand on the left side of their broom with their right hands over their broom and say up"

The class does as told

"Up"Alena commands,Her broom hovers around a bit

"UP!"Ara and Bree say at the same time and their brooms fly into their hands,They were the first in the class

"Good!"Hooch says to Ara and Bree and back to the class"Now once you've got hold of your broom, I want you to mount it.Grip it tight.You don't wanna be sliding off the end.When I blow my whistle,I want each of you to kick off from the ground,Hard. Keep your broom steady,Hover for a moment, Then lean forward slightly and touch back down.On my whistle.Three,two…one!"

Ara mounts her broom,Her hands holding the broom as tight as she could,She takes a deep breath and kicks off the ground like told,She kicked hard and she flew up

"Good job Miss Black"Hooch commends

Bree looks at Ara in jealousy,And Alena shakes her head as she hovers just a bit

Cedric and his friends were watching with interest

"Did you hear Harry Potter got to be Seeker?"A Hufflepuff boy named Matt sighs"If he could be seeker in his first year he must be pretty amazing,Why are the Gryffindores treated like kings and queens?!Right Cedric?"

"Sorry Mate but I think we lost Cedric here"Another Hufflepuff boy named John laughs as he shoves Cedric who pushes him back

"I was just watching the first years,Ara Black is pretty good"Cedric says

Matt sighs"If only we could be like those Gryffindores and have our own first year"

John rolls his eyes at his friend"Uh-huh,Well what would she play?Cedric is already seeker"

Cedric makes a hmmm sound"Chaser,Maybe keeper"

"Hey!"Matt exclaims"I play Keeper!"

John laughs a bit"I don't think Cedric cares"

And Cedric didn't,He was too busy watching Ara and her friend Bree.

On the other side of the field,Where know one was paying attention,A pair of bright blue eyes where watching Ara,A mix of pain and sadness and happiness flashes through them

"If only she new"The voice whispers before leaving
