Chapter 182 - Ch 193 to 195 - Quidditch Match

Lucifer went over to his girlfriend, his eyes racking the now half written parchment on an Electric Bulb, "Made much progress?" She looked up and he noticed she was looking drained.

"Yes, I think..." Hermione's right palm went through her homework, but didn't say anything when she finished and went back to work.

He went and got his bag from the Dormitory and came back to work with her for a 'few' hours until bed.

"How did it go with Professor Dumbledore?" She asked without looking up.

"Not the greatest at naming for dishes, but I pushed through, and did enjoy Toad in the Hole, you should have seen how it was shaped," he smiled at her which she missed.

Lucifer frowned, realizing how much the work was taking out of her. He himself wasn't finding it to be that draining, but they still haven't gotten to heaviest workload of the year, yet.

He was worried about her and her mental health. With his help, Hermione was able to get done sooner than she predicted she would.

She thanked him lips tremendously, embraced for a moment, and went up to her dorm room.

Hufflepuff and Slytherin had their match the week after term had started, at which Ron kept hoping Malfoy would fall off his broom, but that never happened.

Probably for the better since he couldn't catch Golden Snitch, honestly even ignoring Slytherin's won from a large margin, Cedric had done a good job, Slytherin' had won, yes, but barely, according to Oliver, this was good as if Gryffindor beat Ravenclaw as well, it would propel them into Second place in running for Quidditch Cup.

They would have to now make up for

points Slytherin' earned against Hufflepuff 'first', then later worry about two hundred points lead.

Had Hufflepuff won with good scores as well. The chances would've been much less in Gryffindors favor.

This also meant Oliver had them, especially Lucifer, practicing extra for Quidditch, despite him telling Wood that his schedule didn't allow for it.

He almost went to McGonagall, but found that he was still not stressed to the point of snapping at someone, so he would keep at it for now.

Oliver was hoping to calm down everyone, and see if Lucifer lost his temper during practice. He didn't want something to happen between an important match, like what happened during Trelawney's class.

On the bright side, Harry's use of the 'Patronus Charm' went well enough that Lupin didn't see a need for him to continue going, which was a relief, because that was one less thing he had to worry about.

The week after that, Hermione had completely hidden herself amongst her work. She twice forgot to remove her plug before going to bathroom in the morning, it was really quite an awkward problem for her to deal with.

"It's just a load of rubbish!" Hermione whispered angrily one afternoon in the library., "The lines on my palms don't mean any of this rubbish. Poor love life… 'I'm in a relationship!"

"Are your hands calling me a bad boyfriend?" Lucifer hissed, glaring at them, "They don't seem to care when you're poking my junior for another round or feeling me up in various places!"

"Because it's a load of rubbish!" Hermione snapped, not even caring what he just uttered, "If it was true they'd say about how happy I am being with you and-" but she cut off going bright red and hid behind her book.

Only just seemed to be realising what Lucifer was actually talking about.

One evening in the Common Room, Lucifer was just outside her wall of books, there if she needed his help. 

He was working on an essay for Flitwick when he heard Oliver talking to Harry, "Bad news, Harry, I've just been to see McGonagall about the Firebolt. She--er, got a bit shirty with me. Told me I got my priorities wrong. Seemed to think I cared more about winning the cup than I do about you staying alive. Just because I told her I didn't care if it threw you off, as long as you caught the Snitch on it first."

Wood shook his head in disbelief, "Honestly, the way she was yelling at me, you'd think I'd said something terrible. Then I asked her how much longer she was going to keep it," he stopped talking for a moment.

Before Lucifer heard him say in an attempt to sound like McGonagal "As long as necessary, Wood' I reckon it's time you order a new broom, Harry, 'Nimbus 2000' still flies, but I think it doesn't have that previous spark. We need to score big..."

Lucifer felt unusually angry at him, he stood up and looked over at Oliver, with a glare, "What, did I get removed as Reserve Seeker?" He asked and Oliver turned around, looking like he made a huge mistake, "Why the fuck am I going to Practice five nights a week?"

"Lucifer, I-listen, it's not-"

Hermione looked at her boyfriend noticing his anger, "I dove off my fucking broom year in the only match I had to play, and won Gryffindor the match against Slytherin. Is that not good enough for you? Shall I just resign, and in the event Potter doesn't get his fucking broom back before the match, what are you gonna do then!?"

"I-I didn't mean to just forget about you. But Harry has a Firebolt and-"

"Oh, he's got a fucking Firebolt, does he?" Lucifer was angry, he knew he was exceptionally fuming, because he was really cursing a lot.

"Well guess what?" He couldn't stop himself from blowing the secret he wanted to keep for when his first match came, so he revealed his advantage over the other Houses.

"I have a Firebolt as well!" He heard gasps around the room.

"I was going to save it as a surprise for when I had to play in Potter's stead, but fuck it, who cares now!? I might not stay on the team long enough for it to matter, and I might just torch the broom while I'm at it, just out of pure 'fucking' spite!"

Lucifer was visibly shaking from how frustrated he was. Hermione was about to stand up and calm him down, when he sat back, letting out an exasperated sigh and continued his homework.

"Maybe I should ask Slytherin' captain, Draco said he wasn't feeling well since the last match...."

No one knew what to say in response or whether they should. He had brought everyone to silence, without his eyes glowing red, no one dared wanted him to play as Slytherin's Seeker. That would cut Gryffindor's dream of Cup right there.

Hermione swore she saw Lucifer's face was burning too. But, she knew it was just her work that was stressing her out, but she had originally thought her boyfriend wasn't stressed.

She was going to have to reassess the situation; he was obviously not as okay as he wanted her to believe.

No one said anything else to or about him the rest of the evening, not even Hermione, but that was because she didn't know what to say, and she had so much homework, she didn't have a chance to give it any thought.

As the Quidditch Match got closer and closer and Harry's Firebolt showed no sign of being returned before that, Oliver was apologizing profusely to Lucifer, almost begging him to play the match against Ravenclaw.

After the incident in Common Room, he hadn't Gone to a practice out of contempt for the Quidditch Captain.

He was frustrated with Oliver, and rightly so, he felt. On his way to the Great Hall, Lucifer ran into Katie, who was wearing her Quidditch Robes, "Hey, going somewhere in a hurry?"

"Oh, Hi Bell," he said kindly, "I was on my way to the Great Hall for Breakfast, why do you ask?"

"Maybe afterwards, we could go to the Quidditch Pitch? I want to see you on your new Broomstick, but... I also wanted to just talk with you, if you want?" She asked him, being uncharacteristically shy about it.

"Uh, it depends on how much Homework I have," he said honestly.

She looked ever so briefly disappointed, before rebounding into a smile, "No worries, I know you are taking loads of classes, so it's okay. I'm going to be out there practicing on my Chaser moves with Angelina and Alicia, so if you change your mind, you know where to find me," she winked at him and took her leave.

Lucifer felt his cheeks burn ever so slightly as he watched her walk away. He didn't know what was wrong with him; no he actually did, he just couldn't bring himself to admit that he was now a teenage boy.

But he also did honestly want to kind of give his Firebolt a spin before the match, he just hadn't so far out of spite.

Then went to the Great Hall and saw Hermione with her Arithmancy book propped up against a Juice jug, eating some scrambled eggs.

He walked over to her and sat down beside her, grabbing some bacon and eggs for himself, "Morning"

"Morning"

When breakfast had ended, Lucifer told Hermione he was finally going to put in some practice on his Firebolt and that he'd see her later.

She wanted to go and watch, but with all the homework she hadn't done yet, couldn't really afford to do much else during the day.

Lucifer made his way down to the Pitch and saw the three Chasers, both Beater's, and Keeper all there practicing. Quidditch uniform on and 'Firebolt' in hand, he walked out to the field and they all descended, gazing upon the beauty that was the Firebolt.

Wood looked relieved to see him there to practice with it, "I'm really glad you showed up, Lucifer. I don't suppose you've practiced with it at all yet, have you?"

"No, this will be my first time on it," he said, looking down at the finely crafted wooden handle.

He mounted the broom, hovered in

place for a moment, and when his path in front of him was clear, shot forward so quickly, he was sure his stomach had been left on the grass.

Lucifer circled the stadium once in record time and came to hover in the middle of the field, high above the grassy floor. The rest of the team hurried up to meet him all impressed at the speed of Firebolt.

"That was so fast!" Angelina said in awe, "I barely even registered you did a lap around the Pitch."

"With that broom, you may not even need Fred or myself to keep the Bludger away from you," George said, chuckling.

"With that broom, the only thing keeping us from victory in the coming match is just the lack of practice with it," Oliver said,

"Alright, let me go and release the Snitch to see how fast you can gather it up."

When Wood had gotten the Snitch and released it, Lucifer gave it a minute head start..He looked around for it and the second he found the golden glint, launched after it, capturing in his grasp in twenty seconds.

Wood asked Lucifer if he wanted to be the Main Seeker, but he quickly declined offer, citing his reason as the event that happened before the term started.

Oliver understood and didn't ask

him again.

The practice went on for several more hours and when everyone was leaving to go back inside and out of the cold, Katie stopped him for a moment.

"Lucifer, I was wondering if you had a moment to talk?"

"Sure, what about?" He asked her and she walked in with him, being the last two into the Castle.

"Nothing in particular, I just want to talk," she smiled.

"Okay... how good do you think our chances are at winning the coming match?" Lucifer asked, making a small opening for the convo.

"Pretty good with your Firebolt. I know if Harry had his, I'd still say the same," she voiced, "but I like watching you zip around the Pitch, chasing after the Snitch," she said boldly.

Lucifer felt his cheeks burning again, teenage reactions nothing else, he convinced himself, "You do?" She nodded, "Why?"

"You just look cool flying around on your broomstick," She said sincerely, but he picked up a flirtatious intent in her voice, "I also want to be better friends with you," her smile was ever present on her face.

"Well, no harm in that, is there?" He asked coyly.

"Is it alright if I hug you? I remembered seeing you as a First Year, you weren't the fondest of physical contact, but in your Second Year, whenever Hermione did, you didn't flinch or anything. So I figure I should ask before I just up and do so," Katie explained her next actions before doing so, very polite.

"I don't mind it. Thank you for asking me first," Lucifer said and Katie then embraced him for a moment before stepping back to give him space.

"Don't take this the wrong way, but that felt nice."

"It felt different for sure, but not in a bad way," he said.

Her quick, but warm embrace had sent a wave of energy through him, and he knew why. He was a teenage boy, his hormones were causing him to act differently.

"Well I'll let you go, I'm sure you want to get out of those robes and enjoy the weekend. I need to go find my friend in Hufflepuff and discuss our next Hogsmeade adventure. Have fun," She said and walked away, but not before winking at him again.

Lucifer awkwardly walked back to the Common Room, thinking about his girlfriend's chest being now even larger compared to Hannah Abbott.

He rather had a difficult time ignoring this fact, own peeking was ever so amusing to Hermione, for the cases when she did notice him, looking at her in approval.

It made her face lightened up, from the long days of homework.

In Gryffindor Common Room, he looked through his pouch and pulled out his own homework, sorting through everything that had been completed to find an unfinished essay for Herbology.

He got to work on 'finishing' that while Hermione did on Ancient Runes, she had missed it on Sunday cause of spotting Daphne giggling around in the Black Lake, doing the paddle of her wooden boat.

Lucifer was carrying a 'fishing rod!'

Two days later and Quidditch Match for 'Gryffindor vs Ravenclaw' would be starting that morning.

Lucifer awoke early and pulled his Firebolt out of its current holding. He didn't dare leave it out where someone could potentially tamper with it, not that anyone would, except for maybe the hard brain Slytherin, but he was sure both Greengrass would keep them in check as best he could; those girls seemed to be well respected amongst them.

He walked down to Common Room and saw Hermione seated there, "You're up early."

"So are you," She said without turning her head, but he could see the faint hint of a smile on her face from the side.

"I'm going to the Great Hall, you coming?" He asked her.

"Of course," She stood up, marked her place in her book, and walked out with him, noticing that he had his Firebolt with him. As they walked, something caught her eye that she didn't see in the Common Room, "Do you ever take that off?"

"Only when I bathe and do naughty stuff together," Lucifer looked over at her on his right, "it means too much to not wear it otherwise."

Hermione felt her cheeks burn a little.

She pulled hers out from under her shirt, pulling the Time-Turner with it, which she quickly stuck back down her shirt, "That's pretty much the only time I take mine off as well...."

When they walked into Great Hall, there were some Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff students already there.

They turned and saw the Broom

that he had., Lucifer went to sit down as he heard loud muttering about the broom and how it looked like a Firebolt. He found a mostly empty space at the table and set it on the table, "Aliquet," he said after pulling out his wand.

His Firebolt then hovered in place so that everyone could admire it.

Lucifer got himself a mild breakfast of toast, butter to spread on it, some slices of bacon, and a goblet of juice to wash it all down with.

As more and more people flooded into the Great Hall, Hermione watched as everyone was whispering to their friend or looking shocked and rubbing their eyes to make sure it was the real Firebolt.

"Sure you can manage that broom, Morningstar?" A cold, drawling voice said from behind Lucifer and Hermione, he then turned around and stood up to respond, "The only thing I can manage better than this broom is stomping your arse at Quidditch, Graham."

"Got plenty of special features, hasn't it?" Malcolm's eyes glittered maliciously, "Such a shame it doesn't come with a good luck charm for you Gryffindor's."

Crabbe and Goyle, who had always accompanied Malfoy before wherever he went, were now surrounding Graham over, and began to guffaw.

"It's a shame you suck at everything and have to be coddled by your Head of House," Lucifer fired back to a raucous laughter from the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw tables.

His face flushed and he took his new cronies back to the table with him.

Lucifer sat back down and saw that his housemates were still chuckling and giggling to themselves, he smirked and couldn't wait to crush the Slytherin in their next game.

Draco Malfoy's face looked very ugly.

At a quarter to Eleven, the Gryffindor team went to the changing rooms and Lucifer stood there with Firebolt in his hands. The weather was vastly different from when they faced Hufflepuff, which he didn't get to participate in.

Had Cedric not caught the Snitch, he definitely would have.

"You all know what we've got to do," Wood said, just before they made their way out onto the field. As they walked, he spoke again, "If we lose this, we are out of the running. Lucifer... I know you won't fail."

"Damn right I won't," he said with a confident tone, like getting ready for a long battle. They walked out onto the field to a tumultuous applause.

The Ravenclaw Team was standing in the middle of the field already, waiting on them. Lucifer saw Ravenclaw's Seeker, Cho Chang, and she winked at him.

He missed a look of contempt that Katie was giving her, "Wood, Davies, shake hands," Hooch said. After they did she spoke again, "Mount your brooms! On my whistle... three - two - one----"

The second her lips touched whistle, Lucifer bolted into the air, receiving a booming applause from most of the crowd. He was in the air and hovering in place, already on lookout for the Snitch before anyone else was in position.

While he was keeping an eye out, he listened to the always comedic commentary told by none other than the Weasley Twins best friend, Lee Jordan.

"They're off, and the big excitement of this match is the Firebolt which Lucifer Morningstar is flying for Gryffindor. I was in the Common Room when he made the big reveal, where he said he had wanted to wait until this match to do so, but without repeating what he said, just know, he wasn't happy-----"

"On another note, according to 'Which Broomstick, the Firebolt's going to be the broom of choice for the National teams at this year's World Championship----"

"Jordan, would you mind telling us what's going on in the match?" McGonagall interrupted him.

"Right you are, Professor--- just giving a bit of background information. The Firebolt, incidentally, has a built-in auto-brake and-"

"Jordan!"

"Ok, ok, Gryffindor in possession, Katie Bell of Gryffindor heading for the goal----"

Lucifer watched Katie as she belted up the field towards Ravenclaw's goalpost. He tore his eyes from her and began to look once again for a glint of Gold.

He started to fly around to try and find it more easily, and that was when he noticed Cho Chang was tailing him closely. He knew she was a good flyer, he saw her destroy Hufflepuff after a bad match with Slytherin.

She had kept cutting across him, which began to irk him.

"Show her your acceleration, Lucifer!" Fred yelled, as he whooshed past in pursuit of a Bludger that was aiming for Alicia.

Lucifer did exactly that and he had the Firebolt accelerate, quite nicely, around the back end of Ravenclaw's goalposts, which caused her to fall behind. The Comet Two-Sixty was just no match for the Firebolt.

He figured Katie must've scored the first goal of the match, because he heard a celebratory sound from the Gryffindor end of the stadium.

That was when he saw it, the Snitch was fluttering close to ground, near one of the barriers. He did a quick loop, faking Chang out, and sped down to the ground.

She recovered, but not soon enough.

Lucifer knew he was probably giving Hermione a heart attack right now, as she watched him dive to the ground.

He got a thrill from doing it, though, knowing that the ground was quickly arriving. He was ten feet away from the Snitch----

A Bludger, hit by one of the Ravenclaw Beaters, came out of nowhere, aimed right at Lucifer's outstretched arm. He pulled his arm back before it could be hit with, and pulled up to avoid tasting the ground.

He quickly looked back for the Snitch, but in those few, crucial seconds, it had vanished without a trace.

There was a great sound of disappointment from Gryffindor's, but Ravenclaw's were cheering up a storm.

"Gryffindor lead by eighty points to Zero," Lee said.

Had they really gotten Eighty points already? Lucifer looked and sure enough, Gryffindor Chasers proved their worth.

"Look at that Firebolt go! Lucifer's really putting it through its paces now. See it turn--- Chang's Comet is just no match. The Firebolt's precision-balance is really noticeable in these long----"

"JORDAN! ARE YOU BEING PAID TO ADVERTISE FIREBOLTS? GET ON WITH THE COMMENTARY!" McGonagall's voice could be heard booming.

Lee Jordan actually wanted to shout he was by the said boy mouting it! Ravenclaw had managed to score three goals, which put Gryffindor only Fifty points ahead. Lucifer had to find the Snitch soon, otherwise Gryffindor would risk losing.

One thing he did notice, was that Chang was following him instead of looking for the Snitch herself

"You incapable of being a Seeker?"

She didn't respond to his taunt as he got an idea. He looked down and began rocketing towards the grass below, and sure enough, she had started to follow him.

Lucifer got closer and closer to the ground, pulling up at the last possible second. She must've managed to as well, as he didn't hear the satisfying sound of her hitting the grass.

He pulled up and continued looking around, but then he heard a scream from below him. Then looked and saw Cho pointing at 'three... Dementors?' It was weird, because he wasn't hearing Hermione's pleading to be spared, and shouldn't even be around Hogwarts. He quickly realized they weren't, Lucifer smirked and pulled out his wand.

.....He aimed it at the ground in front of them and yelled, "Bombarda!" He holstered his wand, not giving them another thought. He looked up and saw the Snitch flit past.

Lucifer turned and hurried after it. His broom was too fast for Chang and he grasped the Snitch with little issue.

Madam Hooch's whistle sounded, ending the match and giving Gryffindor the win.

The second he looked around, he saw six scarlet blurs speeding towards him; the Gryffindor Team had all tackled him, mid-air, and hugged him in every which direction.

Lucifer tensed up from the sudden and unexpected contact, but none of them noticed. The three Chasers all kissed him, Katie getting close to his mouth; he felt her kiss just at the corner of his lips, and he knew his face was burning.

Somehow, the team managed to make its way to the ground while still holding Lucifer in the center.

He managed to get free of his teammates, only to look up and see a crowd of Gryffindor running towards him like raging bulls. His eyes widened as he was engulfed by the cheering crowd.

They all congratulated him, but his spirits weren't as high as they could've been, as he didn't see Hermione anywhere. Rest of his girls were practically yelling, but what about her?

He figured maybe he'd just missed her, but he'd know for sure when he got back to the Common Room

One voice stuck out to him, "That was quite impressive, Lucifer. I've never seen a Third Year cast an 'Exploding Charm' so well before. By the way, how did you know they weren't Dementors?"

"Thanks! I didn't hear Hermione, so I knew they were not real. So who were they?!" He asked loudly.

Lupin led him through the crowd and to where they could see them, "You gave Mr. Graham quite a fright," he said with a chuckle.

He stared at them and saw that it was Graham, Crabbe, Goyle, and Flint.

Malcolm appeared to have been standing on Goyle's shoulders. They were all currently struggling to remove themselves from the long, black, hooded robes they had worn.

Lucifer couldn't help his smiles when he noticed McGonagall, an expression of utmost fury on her face, "An unworthy trick!" She shouted, "A low and cowardly attempt to sabotage the Gryffindor Seeker I assume? Detention for all of you, and Twenty-five Points EACH from Slytherin! I shall be speaking to Professor Dumbledore about this, make no mistake!"

She turned and noticed the Headmaster himself, "Ah, here he comes now!"

Lucifer was elated to hear this news and was then hugged from behind. He tensed again, but calmed when he realized it was Hannah and Daphne, still excited about the victory, the later didn't even care about Slytherin's Quidditch at all.

Couldn't help smiling, Gryffindor made its way back to the Common Room for a huge Party. The way they were talking on the way back, you'd think they'd already won the Quidditch Cup.

xxxxxxx

Hermione was sat all by her lonesome in the Gryffindor stands, face half covered by her shaking hands.

Harry and Ron were jumping up and down in anger that they were so close to acquiring the Quidditch Cup but it was pushed further out of reach.

Hagrid sidled along the row of cheering Gryffindors and took a seat next to Hermione.

"Yeh alrigh' there, 'Ermione?" Hagrid asked.

"I don't know if I can watch this," She answered, moving a finger to the side to catch a glimpse of Lucifer rolling beneath another Bludger before instantly covering her face again.

"Ever since what occurred in Harry's last match, I've had this evergrowing fear of Lucifer falling off his broom, or the Dementors showing up... or-or a Bludger hitting him in the wrong place. I don't know if I can take it, H-Hagrid!"

"Ah..." Hagrid sighed, planting one of his large, heavy hands on Hermione's shoulder. "I'm sure Lucifer'll be jus' fine. He can handle it... I've seen him done worse than some ruddy Demen'ors."

"That's my boy!!" Wood kept yelling.

The three female Chasers all kissed Lucifer on the cheek, much to Hermione's annoyance.

The moment he saw his girlfriend's face, and pushed through the crowd to get to her, Lucifer cupped her cheeks and pulled her into one of the deepest kiss they had ever shared.

The happiness of the moment is channelled into it.

Lucifer pulled away to see Hermione biting her lip happily. He brushed some hair out of her face and kissed her cheek as the rest of the Gryffindor's rushed onto the pitch.

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Ron yelled running up to Lucifer and clapping him on the back, ignoring the fight he had with Hermione and Lucifer for now.

"Well done, Lucifer! Ten galleons to me! Must find Penelope, excuse me---" Percy said with a grin.

"Ruddy brilliant!" Hagrid cheered once more.

As Lucifer expected, party Gryffindor threw lasted well into the evening, and probably would into the night.

He hadn't gotten a chance to break away from anyone to find Hermione, but eventually did got the chance and took it. When he looked over and saw Granger, homework piled around her.

He could've sworn he had helped her with most of it, but maybe he was thinking about last weekend's.

Knowing he was almost all caught up with the week's homework, but this caused him to realize something.

Lucifer hadn't worked with Hermione on homework for longer than a couple of hours at a time. 'Why does it seem like she has so much more work than even me?' He asked himself, just couldn't wrap his head around it.

"Hermione, did you even come to the match!?" He asked in a yell over the party goers.

"Of course I did, you did well," She looked up at him, smiling, "and I'm really glad we won!"

He then decided to test out something, "That Patronus I cast at those Dementors was fantastic wasn't it?"

"Yes, truly amazing! I can't believe they'd show back up!" She looked back down, but glanced up at his next words.

"Hermione... why are you lying to me?"

"What do you mean?"

"I cast the 'Exploding Charm' on them, Hermione... and it was Graham, Crabbe, Goyle, and Flint, you didn't have to lie about not going..." Lucifer said, his voice starting to break slightly.

She saw the look of hurt in his eye as he looked at her, "W-wha...Lucifer, I swear I was there on the stands..."

"...It's really okay, if you weren't."

"...I've just been so swamped with work," Hermione didn't know how to talk any more, she was also getting very confused. She knew Lucifer wouldn't lie to her or to anyone else, then could it be she was just Day Dreaming?

"???" Her eyes lost colour. 'What's been going on with me?'

"We have the same classes, how do you still have so much more work than me?" Lucifer asked, trying to recover his voice.

Hermione was about to answer when Ron cut her off, "If Scabbers hadn't just been so terrified, he could have happily chewed on these 'Fudge Flies...."

Lucifer turned around to shut him up, but he still said a few more things, "he used to really like them before----"

From behind, he heard Hermione burst into tears, turned over to comfort her, but she already had her things packed and was fleeing up the girl's staircase.

He stood there, mouth hanging open, wondering for a second what just happened. "Can't you give her a break?" He heard Harry ask.

"No," Ron said flatly, "if she just acted like she was sorry, but she'll never admit she's wrong, Scabbers isn't the same as before, his taste buds had chang----" suddenly stopped talking when he started clutching his throat.

Harry turned to Lucifer and went around the front of him to see his eyes glowing red.

"Lucifer, I know I'm not Hermione, but please stop? Ron's a git, you know that, he just says things without thinking a lot of the time!" Harry was just saying anything to try and calm him down. He looked back at Ron and saw him turn an unhealthy shade of blue, "Come on, Hermione wouldn't want him dead-"

He saw Lucifer's eyes change back to its usual black and Ron went into a coughing fit.

Lucifer turned to face him, "You make her cry again, Weasley, and I won't show you mercy." He then went to the Boy's Staircase.

No one had noticed anything had happened over the loudness of the party, but he didn't really care. He stomped his way up to the third year dorm room and got ready for bed.

Pulled his curtains closed, and just stared at the ceiling for about an hour before falling asleep, 'No wonder he noticed, Weasely is sharp when it comes to his things....'
