[HP] This Evil

The first Quidditch game after the Christmas break was Ravenclaw vs. Hufflepuff. The Slytherin students lost to Gryffindor last time and the weather was getting colder and colder. A small number of students came to watch the game without their participation.

Catherine and Draco sat in the first row of the stands wearing thick scarves and gloves, "Here you are", Draco suddenly pulled out a jam jar, and there was a small blue flame in the jar, Catherine took it Suddenly felt a warm palm.

"What kind of spell is this?" Catherine asked. The jam bottle was fragrant, with a nice smell of strawberry jam.

"I won't tell you," Draco smiled smugly, "but you can come to me when you need it."

When the game was about to start, Flint came to the field with the other six players. They sat in the highest row and stared at the two teams on the field with concentration. "We must understand the opponent's tactics." Flint Lindt said.

Hufflepuff's Seeker, Cedric, is huge but surprisingly flexible, easily dodging Bludger attacks several times.Batsmen - This is the position that Catherine is most concerned about, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff batsmen are very tall boys should be at least [-]rd year or above, heavy bludgers in their balls Like a light bird under the stick.

"The batsman's position is too hard, Catherine," Draco said after watching the game for a while, and then pointed at a Hufflepuff batsman through the binoculars. "Look, his arms are bigger than your calves." thick."

"You've got to let me try," Catherine was not about to throw in the towel when it came to batters, and she wouldn't change her mind even with Draco's jam jar in hand.

"I still think you can be a Chaser or a Seeker, there are so many boys in Slytherin, it won't hurt you," Draco continued.

"But I remember you always wanted to be a Seeker, didn't you?" Catherine remembered Draco saying at Madam Malkin's that he liked Arthur Schneider.

"Ah... yes, yes, of course I like Seekers because they often decide the outcome of the game." Draco nodded, and then looked back at Slytherin's Seeker Higgins. Graduation, "If I were Seeker, I would be able to catch the Snitch before Potter."

The wind blew harder, and one of Ravenclaw's female Chasers was blown around in the air, and finally stabilized. Hufflepuff scored another ball, and the score gap on the field was getting worse Growing up, Ravenclaw students are very nervous.Catherine tightened her grip on the jam jar a little more, thinking that it was a sin to stand motionless in the stands at five degrees below zero, but it was a sin of her own initiative.

The Snitch appeared out of nowhere, and Cedric Diggory saw it first, swooping down on the Snitch from high above the sky on his broom, and Ravenclaw's batsman saw it too, and immediately threw a Bludger towards the Snitch. Cedric struck, and the latter easily dodged, but also missed the chance to catch the snitch.The Bludger that missed Diggory flew towards the Slytherin stands, and hit the steps not far from Catherine and the others. The flying broken stones smashed the bottle in Catherine's hand, and A piece hit the cheekbone of her left cheek, and Catherine's hands and face were immediately covered with blood. The severe pain made her forget the cold immediately, and only felt the sticky liquid left from her face.

"Oh my God, Catherine, how are you?" Draco screamed, looking for a handkerchief in his robe in a panic, trying to stop Catherine's bleeding wound, Mrs. Hooch stopped the game, several senior students Slytherin moved towards them.

"Send her to the infirmary, hurry up." Mrs. Hooch shouted, the Ravenclaw batter just followed behind her in a panic, not knowing whether she should follow to the infirmary or stay behind, Digger Li blocked the two first-year Slytherins, unaware that there were other people in the stands behind him.

Draco helped Catherine stumble towards the medical room, his palms were cold, and he threw his hand-warming jam bottle on the ground casually. Senior Gemma walked on the left of Catherine, comforting her softly not to be afraid, and asked Flint to notify Professor Snape.

"Draco, I shouldn't be disfigured." Catherine said when she was about to walk to the medical room. The piece of Draco's veil she used to block the blood seemed to be stuck to the wound, and a slight stretch would bring more severe pain.

"Don't talk nonsense." Draco took her hand, which was as cold as theirs.

The medical room was empty, only a Hufflepuff who was hospitalized with a cold was resting, Pomfrey was startled when he saw Catherine covered in blood, and quickly let her sit on the hospital bed.The wound on Catherine's hand was not serious, a simple spell and a little potion could easily heal it, but the trouble was the wound on her face.

"I have to take this handkerchief away, child, it may hurt, bear with it." Madam Pomfrey said softly, then she took Catherine's hand away, and bit by bit tore off the handkerchief stuck to the flesh .Catherine tried her best not to cry. It was too embarrassing to cry in front of so many people. Fortunately, she succeeded. Tears swirled in her eyes, but she was finally held back.

"Your cheekbones are all broken, kid." Pomfrey observed for a moment, then picked up his wand, "Recover quickly, recover quickly", the feeling of putting the broken bones back together is not pleasant, even worse than before It still hurts. "Honey, you have to stay in the hospital for observation for a few days. Now lie down and rest for a while. The rest of you should go out. The patient needs to rest."

Draco and Senior Gemma were the two people who came to see her most often during the few days in the hospital. Draco would come every day, and he also brought the class notes with him. The lecture was over, but Professor Flitwick asked Draco to tell Catherine, so that she didn't have to worry, because he could help her make up the lessons alone. It didn't matter whether she listened to the astronomy class or not. Anyway, she couldn't understand it. Catherine only wanted this class now A pass is enough.Pansy and Blaise also came once, but they were driven away by Madam Pomfrey after only two words.Jasper White, the Ravenclaw batsman, also came once. Unfortunately, he met Draco, so he could only say sorry, and then he was kicked out by the Slytherin who was two years younger than himself. Run away, he doesn't actually need an apology.The most surprising thing was that Ravenclaw's prefect, Perotti, also came. Catherine said very mean things to her in the library that day, but she still came to the medical room on the grounds of visiting Jasper, and Bringing Honeydukes candy had nothing to do with her.

On the night of the hospitalization, Catherine wrote a letter to her parents and dragged Draco to bring it to the owl, but she did not receive a reply until a month after she was discharged from the hospital.

Catherine:

This doesn't happen if you're in the library.

Alfonso Ferrara & Michaelera Ferrara

This time Catherine did not use the raging fire, but crumpled up the letter and threw it into the fireplace.
