The Kitchens

Zabby grinned. "I think that's just evil, personally." She smiled. "Helena, I really shouldn't have freaked like that..."

"No worries," Helena said. "And I'll try to filter my words. So what's your favourite Quidditch team?"

Diana shook her head. "Helena."

"What? I'm curious." Helena said.

Zabby grinned. "Holy Head Harpies." ((I can't think of any right now...I'm still going over stuff that I really don't need to...Haha))

"That's my favorite too," Diana said.

"Pssh, please, they're really weak, the Puddlemere United, now that's a Quidditch team." Helena said.

Zabby turned to Helena. "Weak? Weak?! They are not weak! They won their last three matches!" SHe thought about it. "And doesn't a former Gryffindor, Oliver Wood, play for them?" she asked.

"He plays for Puddlemere," Helena said. "Cause you know the Harpies are an all girls team..."

"And that's why the Harpies are better!" Diana said. "Being the only all girl team in the league!"

Helena scoffed. "Please, they're sexist."

Zabby sighed. "I meant Puddlemere! And they are not sextist! They just believe in offering women the same oppertunities as men!"

"Yes, but what if a guy wanted to play for the Harpies? He would be turned down because the isn't a girl." Helena countered.

Zabby shook her head. "Look at how many guys teams there are! And if a girl wanted to try out, they'd never get on!"

"They would!" Helena said. "Look at Angelina Johnson... look at Ginny Potter!"

Zabby rolled her eyes. "No! They wouldn't!"

She turned to Diana. "Are you going to side on this one?"

SHe rounded on Helena again. "Angelina Weasley and Ginny Potter are excellent players, yes, but no matter what, they wouldn't have been accepted!"

((Oh yeah forgot about that... haha funny since I'm a GW/AJ shipper))

"Yeah they've been accepted!" Helena said. "Ginny Potter plays for..."

"The Harpies!" Diana said. "Which is why it is a fantastic team."

"The Harpies!... really?" Helena said. "I thought she was for the Tornados."

"Nope," Diana said. "Potter's for the Harpies."

Zabby smirked. "Yes, she play's for the Harpies! And Harry Potter hasn't missed one of her matches. If I remeber correctly, Harry was the best Gryffindor seaker in the history of Hogwats School, probably only compared to Viktor Krum." She was going off on a tangent but this was her favorite subject.

"I know, such a shame he didn't persue a Quidditch Career like his wife. I heard Puddmere tried to bid for him." Diana replied.

Zabby nodded sagely. "It is. I wish he would have. My mom, real mom, one who raised me mom, works at the Ministry. I've seen him fly, and my gods, it is a sight to see."

Diana nodded. "I saw him fly once too." She sighed wistfully.

"I'm so jealous of you guys." Helena said.

Zabby grinned. "I think he's flying for the English Ministry quiddich team against the French Ministry at Christmas. You guys are welcome to come stay for a while, after the Ball, that is. Potter's seaker of course. Mum's the keeper."

"Oh can we?" Helena's eyes glowed.

"... I don't know... I have to ask my parents about it..." Diana said.

Zabby nodded. "Yes, you can, Helena." SHe turned to Diana. "You're still welcome, no matter what your parents say."

"You should just go without asking them Di," Helena said.

"Yes, that'll put me back in good graces with them." Diana said sarcastically.

"You know what your problem is? You worry too much." Helena said to Diana.

"You two are welcome to stay at my place too, over the holidays, I mean... it would be terribly awkward if it was just me and my grandfather... considering he isn't speaking to me..."

Zabby smiled. "I'm sure mum and dad wouldn't mind picking us up from your place, Diana. Mum always has me warm up with them so it's always a lot of fun."

Helena chuckled. "I think they might mind slightly, considering Diana spends the holidays in Spain."

Zabby considered. "Maybe...As long as it wasn't France, they'd be fine with it. Mom hates spending time in France because our quiddich teams are rivals."

Helena laughed. "I agree."

"Hey, I think France has a pretty decent scenery." Diana defended.

Zabby nodded. "That is does. Mum's highly competitive." She shrugged. "You should see when she's playing Quiddich. She's one of the better Keepers I've seen."
