⭒☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆⭒ ELARA LUPIN SUPPRESSED A YAWN, HER HOOD FIRMLY ON HER HEAD AS THE RAIN POURED. Quidditch wasn't exactly the most entertaining thing in Elara's eyes. Firstly, she hated how it always took place in the cold, secondly, she hated how complicated it was to understand. Cedric was a major Quidditch enthusiast, he lived and breathed the sport. Similarly, Morgan also enjoyed the game and played for the Ravenclaw team as a beater. Morgan was a particularly good beater.
Today, Gryffindor and Hufflepuff were playing off at Quidditch. Elara was supporting both teams, wearing a yellow checkered jumper and a red bandana. The group had managed to sneak Gaia and Morgan into the Hufflepuff stands and were all holding umbrellas and wearing coats so that the rain didn't drench them. "Remind me why Quidditch couldn't be hosted inside?"
Lois pushed a strand of curly brown hair that was sticking to her forehead behind her ear. "Because if it was inside, It would be much more difficult to play as the building would be incapable of maintaining the team and also the equipment,"
"It would be more interesting watching them hit their heads on ceilings,"
"That's brutal,"
"Thanks,"
Wisteria began poking Elara's arm. "L-Look, Lo-Look!" Wisteria yelled, followed by the cheers from the Hufflepuff house. "It's Ceddy!!" The group's attention was where Wisteria's finger was pointing, the boy wearing yellow that blurred and seemed golden zooming around on the pitch. The canary-yellow uniforms caused cheers to erupt and Elara's group all cheered. Morgan was the loudest, along with Lois who was holding Gaia's hand tightly, the two looking at each other excitedly. Daphne also seemed quite excited, Pepper ( her pet Niffler her Great-Grandfather had gotten her for a birthday present ), squealing with glee. It had taken a shiny watch to buy Pepper's attention.
"Wis, take a look," Elara passed the small girl her Omnioculars, the little girl's being beaten up and rusted so they didn't work nearly as well as the ones Cedric bought Elara last Christmas. "Have you spotted the Snitch?"
"H-Holy c-r-rap!" Wisteria spluttered out, Morgan frowning and muttering "language" to her. "T-This is b-b-br-brilliant!"
"It is, isn't it?"
Despite the heavy rain and the wind screaming into their ears like a banshee, the group consisting of four Hufflepuffs, a Slytherin and a Ravenclaw found glee in an event all because of their collective support of the Hufflepuff Seeker. Cedric seemed confident hearing his friends' screams of support and had a bright smile on his rain-stricken face. His eyes remained fixed on the golden ball he had to catch, noticing how Harry, a much smaller built and a brilliant seeker, was doing his best to catch up to the golden snitch. He speeded as quick as he could, hoping his broom was quick enough to catch the snitch that was as golden as his hopes and dreams.
