The first Quidditch match was approaching, but the weather was getting worse, but it didn't stop the teams from each house from training bravely.This Saturday was scheduled for a Gryffindor-Slytherin match, but on Wednesday, Cedric suddenly brought unwelcome news to his team.

"We have a game this Saturday!" he told his players helplessly. "Captain Slytherin Flint just came to talk to me. We have to play Gryffindor."

"Why?" the other players asked in unison.

"Flint said their Seeker's injured arm isn't healed yet, so we have to work harder." Cedric frowned.

One of the players who acted as a chaser said angrily: "Their purpose is obviously not to want to play in such weather. They think it will be bad for them. It's too cunning."

The weather has been squalling and raining recently, and when Cedric was speaking, there were bursts of thunder in the sky.

This sudden change was unexpected by everyone. According to the original arrangement, they were supposed to compete with the Ravenclaw team next week. For this reason, they specially formulated a careful combat plan based on the opponent's strengths and weaknesses. Even the training is well organized and absolutely scientific.

It turned out to be good now, not only was told to play early, but also temporarily changed an opponent, and seeing that the game was imminent, how could one not be angry with the Slytherin team, their domineering behavior on weekdays has long caused the other three teams The team is dissatisfied with them, and it is estimated that the Gryffindor team who has heard the news may also be cursing.

"That kid Malfoy's arm is fine at all!" Ian said angrily, "He's doing it on purpose!"

"I understand, but we can't prove it." Cedric sighed, but quickly adjusted his mentality and began to cheer up the players whose morale had dropped a lot.

"There will always be unexpected situations in the game. This is normal. There is nothing to say, but we must not shrink back because of this. If we choose to surrender at the beginning, then we will only lose the game. .I don't want to lose, and I think you don't want to lose, especially if you lose so shamelessly. So everyone cheer up, it's time for the whole school to take a good look at the results of our hard training these days, and let them know that we We are no longer what we used to be.”

These words did have a certain effect, and soon everyone was full of energy and devoted themselves to training, even more than ever, and they hoped that this game would change everyone's opinion of the Hufflepuff team.

"I think you will win." Camelia whispered to Cedric, "But you looked so handsome just now, so can I secretly kiss you now?"

"You can kiss me openly at any time, and you know it, I will never mind."

Cedric smiled and opened his arms, and Camelia immediately got in and hugged his waist tightly.

Perhaps because of staying with him for a long time, Camelia found that her skin had gradually become thicker. She was only willing to kiss him in places where no one was around, and sometimes even hid the good morning kiss at the door of the auditorium every morning. , up to now, he can but can kiss his face generously as if no one else is holding his face.

After kissing several times in a row, Cedric looked at her reluctantly and said, "Forgive me, I have to go to training now. And don't wait for me today, you should train until late."

On the eve of the game, the wind and rain were fiercer than before.The corridors and classrooms were pitch-black, and in order to brighten things up, we had to light more torches and lamps.This made the faces of the two teams that were about to compete dignified, but the Slytherin team looked smug, especially Malfoy, who had a bad arm. He deliberately yelled in front of Gryffindor that if his With a better arm he would be able to play Quidditch, the wind was pounding against the window as he spoke.

At the same time, because Professor Lupine was ill, the defense against the Dark Arts of the whole school was replaced by Professor Snape this week. He assigned a paper assignment for everyone, and the content of the paper was the method of identifying and killing werewolves. Two sheets of parchment had to be filled, and to make matters worse he demanded that they all have to be handed in by next Monday morning, which made everyone hope that Professor Lupine would recover soon.

On race day, the rain showed no sign of letting up.The Hufflepuffs were fidgeting at breakfast, but their opponents weren't much better.

"It's going to be a tough fight," Ian told Iris, who couldn't eat anything right now.

"Don't worry, it's just a little rain." Iris comforted him, and advised him to at least eat something to replenish his strength. It was rare to see the two of them talking so calmly like now.

Compared with his friend, Cedric seemed relatively calm. He was eating breakfast calmly, as if there was no important game waiting for him.

Before they set off, Camelia and Cedric said: "Good luck."

"I believe my Miss Felix will bring us good luck." Cedric bent down and kissed the birthmark at the corner of her eye.

But the weather was surprisingly bad, and it wasn't just a little rain.Even so, all the teachers and students of the school came out to watch the game as usual. They ran across the lawn to the Quidditch pitch, walking with difficulty in the wind and rain with their heads down, because the umbrellas were blown away by the wind on the way. The hand was blown away, which also shows the popularity of Quidditch among wizards.

The wind was so strong that the players staggered when they walked to the field.In the rumbling thunder, even if there were cheers in the audience, they would not be able to hear them.

The raindrops blown in by the wind hit Camelia on the face, she didn't care at all, her mind was full of thoughts about how Cedric would see the Snitch in the storm, but thankfully the average Seeker usually He was the agile type, but Cedric's weight was very beneficial in this kind of weather, at least he wouldn't be blown around.

In fact, it was Harry of Gryffindor who was more worrying. He looked light and small, and he even wore a pair of glasses. Today's game environment was terrible for him.But compared to this little brother, Camelia cared more about her boyfriend.

Iris, who was on the side, saw her worry, patted her hand and whispered, "They will definitely win. I believe Seid will catch the Snitch before Potter."

Although Iris likes Wood, when it comes to this kind of college Quidditch competition, she still hopes that her college can win, especially her best friend is the captain and seeker, and the other is a batter.And Wood has been a lot colder to her recently because of Gryffindor's match with Hufflepuff.

It was raining heavily, and the audience was hiding under cloaks and umbrellas blown out of shape by the wind. They could barely see blurred red and yellow figures passing by. They mainly listened to the radio to understand the progress of the game, but it seemed Today's broadcasting industry is less accurate.

The score was tight, Gryffindor had just scored a goal, and Hufflepuff was chasing it back. In this case, it all depends on which team's Seeker catches the Snitch first.

As the game progressed, the sky became darker, as if the night had decided to come earlier, and now every player was drenched and raindrops were falling densely.

Gryffindor called a timeout when they were leading by fifty points, and Mrs Hooch's whistle blew along with the first lightning bolt.Both pairs quickly descended into the mud in the rain.

"They have a fifty-point lead," Cedric said, "but it doesn't matter, we will catch up, and I will try to catch the Snitch as quickly as possible, and then we will win."

"It's better to be like this, otherwise, if we continue at this pace, I'm afraid it will be late at night." The team's goalkeeper said.

Cedric nodded, and then said to them seriously: "However, I hope everyone can understand that winning or losing is not the most important thing, but being together is the most important thing. If, I mean, if we lose, we will Don't get too upset, okay? Because everyone gave it their all and everyone did a great job."

"Why do you guys suddenly say such sad words? We will definitely win!"

Ian said and patted Cedric on the shoulder vigorously, and the other team members echoed him one after another. Everyone seemed to be full of fighting spirit.

At this moment, Camelia appeared next to Cedric. She came over with a cloak on her head, and the whole team was boiling again.

"Miss Felix came just in time, hurry up and give our captain a kiss!"

"With her here, we will win, Seid, you can rest assured."

Such words made both of them dumbfounded, but Cedric still stretched out his hand to embrace Camelia without hesitation in this short period of time.

"You promised me you'd give me the Snitch."

"I haven't forgotten, and you don't forget, you belong to me."

"Let's talk when you win."

"I will definitely win."

Cedric gave Camelia a big kiss on the cheek, feeling suddenly filled with strength for some reason, that he would win.

He raced again, determined to hustle his broom through the turbulent air, looking for the Snitch in every direction.The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it started to thunder. After the thunder, there was a terrifying lightning. It was getting more and more dangerous. This also implied that the seekers of the two teams must quickly catch the golden snitch to end the game.

When another flash of lightning illuminated the stands, everyone saw Cedric suddenly and continuously falling towards the field, followed by Harry, the two flew side by side at high speed, neither giving way to the other, a small golden spot in the rain The dense sky flickered between them.

However, a strange thing happened at this moment. At least a hundred dementors suddenly ran onto the playing field. In the blink of an eye, the sharp and ear-piercing screams cut through the sound of rain and thunder and the noise of the crowd. I saw Harry fall straight from the broom that was flying very high, and Cedric caught the golden snitch. The game was over, but no one cared about the result of the game anymore. Everyone was thrown off by Harry The thing terrified, because at least fifty feet away, he would die.

Camelia clutched her chest, her heart was beating violently at this moment, and she hardly dared to look at the horrifying scene that was about to happen in front of her.

Even Dumbledore lost his composure and went straight to the court, we have never seen him so angry, he waved his wand, and then something magical happened, Harry's falling through the air slowed down, just like in slow motion in a movie .Then Dumbledore waved his wand again in the direction of the Dementors, and Camelia saw a silver phoenix rushing towards the Eaters of Souls, and when the monsters saw the silver light, they fled and left the stands, she Knowing that it was the Patronus Charm, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and slumped in his seat.

Harry was sent to the school hospital in a hurry. The Hufflepuff players who won the victory did not show joy on their faces, but looked worriedly at the direction Harry was going away. No one looked relaxed, especially Cedric, when he caught the Snitch and turned around to find his opponent had dropped his broom, was so confused he had no idea what had just happened.

After getting off the broom, Cedric immediately found Mrs. Hooch and asked to interrupt the game. He wanted to rematch.But Mrs. Hooch thought that they had won fairly and aboveboard, and there was no need for another match. The result was already divided. Even if Harry had an accident midway, it could not change this fact.

Although Wood appeared so desperate after the match that he punished himself by kneeling in the rain after the match, looking like he was going to drown himself, he admitted that they lost the match and that Hufflepuffs won fair and square.

The Hufflepuffs, splashed from head to toe with mud as if they had just climbed out of a swimming pool, surrounded Cedric, who had just finished looking for Mrs. Feel the joy.

When the team congratulated Cedric, he said: "It's just luck, if Harry didn't..."

Camelia retorted, "That doesn't necessarily mean you will lose."

"But..." Cedric wanted to say something, but this time he was interrupted by his team members.

They all felt that he was too modest, since he and Harry were evenly matched, even if there were no accidents, Gryffindor might not necessarily win.

Seeing that everyone said so, Cedric did not continue to insist on his point of view, and handed the captured golden snitch to Camelia.

A bunch of Hufflepuffs happily left the field, discussing going back to celebrate the victory with a carnival party at night. Cedric held Camelia's hand and fell behind the crowd. At this time, there was a smile on his face With a big smile, he whispered to her: "I think maybe you are really my blessing elixir, maybe I should really think about having you as a mascot."

Camelia was taken aback, "Are you joking with me?"

"Not really, at least I thought about it seriously just now."

Seeing that he smiled so irresponsibly when he said this, Camelia was a little angry, and reached out to pinch his arm, and he hurriedly said, "I'm only reluctant to let you go if you are my personal mascot." When everyone's mascot, you are mine."

"That's not okay, don't even think about it!"

The next day, Camelia and Cedric went to visit Harry in the school hospital, after many people had visited him before, and all were bent on cheering him up.However, it seemed that no matter what others said or did, it couldn't make Harry feel better.

When Camelia and Cedric came over, they happened to meet the Gryffindor team members who had just visited and were about to leave, but their attitude towards Cedric was not very good, especially Fred and George The twins, whose faces seemed to twitch when Cedric smiled at them, looked odd.

When the three female players greeted Cedric with almost smirk expressions, Fred and George seemed unable to sit still any longer.

"Hey, Camelia, do you know why your boyfriend doesn't like to talk?" Fred said to Camelia with an impatient expression, causing both Camelia and Cedric to Bewildered, looking at him in bewilderment.

"That's because he..."

Fred was about to say the answer, but was rebuked by Wood, thinking that it must be some bad words.Then Wood took the initiative to chat with Cedric about yesterday's game. After affirming Hufflepuff's strength, he sincerely congratulated Cedric for bringing out an excellent team, and then he took his players away. up.

It's just that Wood's voice is hollow and lifeless, which is very worrying.

In the ward, Harry was surprised by their arrival, especially when he saw Cedric coming in, he seemed a little uncomfortable, but this was natural, after all, they were opponents in the field yesterday.

"I made some cupcakes for you in the kitchen. I think you will feel better if you eat more sweet ones." Camelia handed him the paper box containing the cakes.

"You made this all yourself?" Harry opened the carton with some excitement, and the little cakes inside were all so delicate and cute that people couldn't bear to eat them.

"Cami, I've been busy all morning for you." Cedric answered Camelia with a smile.

Camelia didn't notice that the expression on Harry's face became stiff after Cedric said, "I don't know, I just made some of what you like. If you have anything else you want to eat ,Please let me know."

"No, it's too much trouble for you."

Harry lowered his head as he spoke, almost buried in his neck.

Because at this point Ron and Hermione had gone to the auditorium for dinner, Harry was the only one in the ward now, and Camelia was afraid that he would be cranky if he was left alone, so she took Cedric to sit down and talk to him .

Harry showed them visiting gifts from friends, Hagrid gave him a bouquet of centipede flowers that looked like yellow cabbages; Ginny Weasley gave him a homemade get well card, But if the card is not closed and pressed under a dish or fruit, it will sing shrilly.

Cedric and Camelia studied Ginny's greeting card quite seriously. In the end, they came to the conclusion that Ginny's magic was overdone, and then Cedric took out his wand to solve the problem. , now just closing the card will stop the shrill singing.

Neither of them noticed that Harry was staring at Cedric as he dealt with the cards, though, because no one knew he was furious at Camelia's stare at Cedric.

Feeling that Harry had something to say to herself, Camelia asked Cedric to get some medicine for her allergies, and he went straight without any doubt.

"Are you allergic?" Harry asked hurriedly after Cedric had left.

Camelia sat by his bed and said softly, "No, it just feels like you have something to say to me."

Harry looked surprised, hesitated for a while, and then said cautiously: "I don't understand why those dementors affect me so much? Am I too..."

"It has nothing to do with weakness." Camelia said seriously, as if she could see right through what Harry was thinking. "Those dementors affect you more than others, and that's because no one has had the horrible experience you have."

Harry didn't speak, just looked at Camelia blankly.A ray of warm winter sun shone into the ward, hitting Camelia just right, and it seemed to Harry that she was shining.

"Dementors are among the most odious creatures on earth. They haunt the darkest and dirtiest places in hordes, and they suck all peace, hope, and joy out of the air around them. Even Muggles can feel their presence too, although they can't see these guys. But as long as you get too close to a dementor, whether it's a Muggle or a wizard, any good feeling, any happy memory will be absorbed by it Let's go." Camelia explained to him.

"Azkaban must be terrible," Harry muttered, because he remembered being told that dementors were the keepers there.

Camelia nodded, "Harry, you have nothing to be ashamed of. The bad things that happened to you are enough to make anyone fall off a broomstick."

Cedric was waiting for Camelia at the gate of the school hospital, and immediately greeted her when she came out.

"I didn't ask Ms. Pomfrey for allergy medicine. I think what you need more is tranquilizer." He waved a few bottles of medicine in front of Camelia's eyes.

Camelia knew that she couldn't hide it from him, so she pulled his sleeve to please him and said, "Aren't you angry? I tricked you out."

"I believe you, you must have your reasons for doing this." Cedric said with concern again, "Harry, is he better?"

"It seems to be much better."

"That's good, because I'm worried about him too." Cedric breathed a sigh of relief, then pinched Camelia's face affectionately, and said with a smile: "But if something happens to our little savior in the future , don’t allow anyone to come to see him, at least report to me first.”

"Why?" Camelia asked puzzled.

"Because I thought I would be jealous." Cedric whispered, "Really, it's not a good thing that my girlfriend is too cute to beware of so many people."

Camelia deliberately pretended not to hear anything, and strode forward without changing her expression.

The author has something to say:

I finally wrote about the Quidditch match, but I haven't written half of the first-year plot yet...
