Y/N and Hermione were exhausted. They had agreed to have a double weekend this weekend. After they got up for their 'Saturday' they had stayed in the room of requirement all day working, with Y/N apparating to Dores at Loch Ness to get their meals.

They then used the time turner to go back to 8:00am where they spent Saturday having meals in the great hall and working in the library. They had repeated the process on Sunday.  Y/N looked down at the checklist of what he had achieved over the weekend.

That last one was particularly tricky for Hermione. She had never felt so intellectually dishonest in her life. Y/N helped though, suggesting rather than focusing on the legitimacy of Divination, to write about the hope it gave people. Hermione appreciated Y/N's input.

When they finished in the library on their second Sunday evening everything was done. Every assignment given to them had been completed, whether it was due in the next week or not.

The lovers headed back to the common room at 7:00pm and spent a nice couple of hours hugging, talking, occasionally kissing, and hanging out with their friends before heading off to bed. It was a monumental effort. A truly huge one, but they could do it. As long as they had each other they could support each other through the workload.

Monday's classes had been interested. Both Na-Hath and Newt decided Y/N hadn't spent enough time with them and accompanied him to all his classes. A bowtruckle in his hood he could get away with. Explaining to Sprout, Lupin and Rowan why he had a Phoenix perched on his shoulder and why he couldn't send him away was not as simple. Hermione and Lavender giggling at Y/N's attempts didn't help.

At 4pm Y/N headed down to the Quidditch pitch with Harry. It was their first team meeting of the year. Y/N greeted his team mates warmly, other than a rather simple and cold hello to Katie who returned it and a fist bump to the Weasley twins.

"Y/N is that a Phoenix on your shoulder?" Wood asked.

"Yes, this is Na-Hath" Y/N smiled.

"So it's your Phoenix?" The captain asked. Y/N's eyebrows furrowed.

"I don't own him Wood, he's an individual creature, not a slave. But we are bonded with each other, yes."

"Well make him go this is important and we need to focus" Wood said forcefully, noticing the other team members distraction staring at the majestic bird.

Y/N's eyes narrowed. He didn't appreciate Oliver's forceful tone towards Y/N's beloved Phoenix.

"Na-Hath. Wood wants you to leave. Tell him what you think of that" Y/N chuckled.

The Phoenix rose high in the tent before erupting his wings in flames and swooping Wood several times, before the captain yelled "he can stay he can stay" at which point Na-Hath perched comfortably and happily on Y/Ns shoulder again.

"Wicked" the twins said in unison. Oliver shook his head and began his speech:

"All right gents"

"And ladies" Katie and Angelina said at the same time.

"And ladies. This is it my last chance. My last chance to win the Quidditch Cup. I know we won it two years ago, but it was addictive. And I don't want to miss out. We have the team. We've got two beaters who think as one"

"Guilty as charged" the Weasleys said in unison.

"Three chasers who are dynamite" Y/N smirked as Harry blushed along with the girls.

"And you" Wood said happily pointing at Y/N, who raised an eyebrow.

"You're lightning on the broom, you've never lost a game playing and well, you were our enforcer in first year. Look at you. You're what, 6 inches taller and packing 30 pounds more muscle since then?"

"Nice of you to notice Wood. You're gonna make me blush." Y/N smirked and the rest of the team chuckled.

"You forgot yourself Wood. Damn fine keeper" Fred added.

"Thanks George" Wood smiled.

"You're welcome" Fred smiled.

"Uh you're Fred, not George smartarse" Y/N chuckled. Fred groaned in frustration, turning to George and stating:

"He always knows"

He turned back to Y/N again and asked in a moan:

"How is it you always know?"

Y/N smirked and chuckled, replying:

"George is prettier!"

George smirked while Fred sulked. Oliver tried to get the group focused again:

"Anyway we will be training 4-6 every Monday and Wednesday. Rain, hail or shine. I've devised whole new strategies and we need to learn them before our first match."

Oliver said proudly before Y/N raised his hand, Oliver asking:

"Yes Y/N?"

"Just a heads up, I have NEWT commitments and might not be able to make every session."

"Well I have Newts too Y/N.... wait what do you mean you have Newt commitments?" Wood's tone turned to confusion midway through his sentence.

"I'm taking a special class, Ghoul Studies, on a Sunday" Y/N replied.

"That's not offered?" Wood asked confused.

"Well, not unless you're special" Y/N said with a smirk.

"What do you do in it Y/N?" asked Fred
"Is it dangerous?" asked George
"Why would Sunday affect training?" asked Oliver.

All three questions came at the same time. Y/N chuckled and tried to answer them all quickly:

"It's hunter training. You learn to track and despatch the foulest creatures, beasts and beings in creation" Y/N pointed to Fred and George.

"And I get pulled on hunts when I'm needed. Can't always pick when they happen" He pointed to Wood.

"Is that what that ball of light was about last week Y/N?" Angelina asked and Y/N nodded.

"What have you hunted so far Y/N?" Asked Fred excited.

"Vengeful wraiths, Vampires, Wendigoes and a demon" Y/N answered trying to remember them all.

"Wow" is the only response that came from the shocked team. Oliver shook his head and continued on:

"Alright well, just come to every session you can. See you all Wednesday!"

Y/N and Harry walked back towards the dinner hall with the others where Hermione had just arrived with Lavender. She kissed Y/N and smiled, pausing to give Katie a filthy look as she walked passed. She asked her boyfriend:

"So when's training?"

"Monday and Wednesday 4-6."

He switched to legilimency mid-sentence:

Won't really be able to turn out of it either, if people see me both on the pitch and the library it could be dangerous.

"Yeah best not to" Hermione agreed. "It's ok, I'll help you keep up" she smiled.

Y/N kissed her as they sat down for dinner, whispering:

"I know you will love. I know you will"
