Prophecy ~ Lams (COMPLETED)

Chapter 23: What'd I Miss?

I really hope I made the opposite of a JKR quidditch chapter. I think it's better, but that's because it has Hamilton characters in it.

JEFFERSON POV

I like to say that my heart is quite indecisive. 

I also like to say that I'm straight.

Ever since that day I dueled against James Madison in Defense Against the Dark Arts, I've felt different. and when Laurens finally had the courage to say something back, I realized that he was right. and that meant that maybe I was being a bit to much of a homophobe to him. That maybe I was a hypocrite.

Now, there were a lot of things I didn't know. The one thing I did know was Quidditch.

----

I tried my hardest to get my big hair under the helmet, squishing the perfect hairdo I had spent hours molding together. The rest of the team was finally ready, and we all flew up onto the Quidditch pitch to start the first game of the year versus the Gryffindors. We had all been training for months, waiting for this moment. This second. This game.

"welcome all to the first Quidditch game of the year, Slytherin v.s. Gryffindor! We've all been anticipating the start of the season, and what a better way to kick it off then with a classic duo, enemies since the beginning- Ok, ok, professor! I'll stop. Captains, to the center of the pitch."

John Adams flew forward, along with the Gryffindor captain Katherine Howard. They shook hands while giving each other the death glare. 

"Alright, I want a clean match, little to no major injuries!" Coach Laurens said to the teams. The captains nodded simultaneously, and the Quaffle was thrown in the air. The other balls were released, and the game began.

"Lewis! Watch it!" I yelled, swerving to dodge a Bludger that was headed right for me.

"I never miss, Jeffershit," Maria said, grunting as she swung and another Bludger with her bat. the ball collided with the broom of a Gryffindor chaser, causing them to lose their grip on the Quaffle. I ducked under and caught it, changing direction to the Gryffindor hoops. Full speed ahead.

"Another point for Slytherin, making the score 50-60! The Golden Snitch has still not been found- nevermind! The seekers have spotted it."

I saw Hamilton and the youngest Schuyler dive down at the same time, in pursuit of the winged ball.

"Jefferson, catch!"

Adams passed me the ball and I threw it to Lydia, who streaked past the Gryffindors to score another goal. 

"Great goal by the Slytherins, the score now 60-60. The seekers are neck and neck for the Golden Snitch. the Slytherin's new seeker, Alexander Hamilton, is gaining on Gryffindor's veteran seeker, the notorious Margarita Schuyler."

"IT'S PEGGY!" she yelled. dodging yet another Bludger, I saw her raise her balled hand triumphantly over her head. Dammit Hamilton.

"And Peggy Schuyler has caught the Snitch! Gryffindors win, 210-60!"

The Gryffindors and their supporters from other houses all erupted in cheers, yelling and clapping loudly. Peggy was swarmed by her team, giving her high fives and congratulating her on the catch. I reluctantly flew down to the grass where the rest of the Slytherins waited.

"Great job, Hamilton," I scoffed. He looked down at the ground.

"Yo, Jefferson, back off. It was his first match, and he did pretty fucking good if you ask me," Maria said, stepping in front of me protectively.

"We can't afford to lose! I don't even know why Hamilton's on the team." Maria made a move towards me.

"I wouldn't want to hit a girl."

"Well, I'll have bloody hell of a time punching the shit out of you!" She yelled, raising her fist in the air. Shit maybe I didn't think this through-

"Maria! Jefferson! Enough!" Adams slid himself between us, stopping Maria in her tracks. "I get that we lost, but you both need to calm down. At the end of the day, you are teammates."

I laughed in disbelief. "The world's gonna end before I call Lewis a 'teammate'."

"Ditto."

We stared at each other, mentally preparing for duel. She broke the eye contact first.

"I'm going to go congratulate my girlfriend and her team, because that's what a good person would do." She stuck up her middle finger and walked away.

" What's a good person?" I called after her.

"Thomas?" I'd know that voice anywhere. I took off my helmet, quickly restoring the natural shine to my hair before turning around. 

"James! What are you doing here?" The small boy in front of my coughed into his handkerchief.

"Um, I just wanted to say that you should've won. Against Gryffindor."

"Thanks, Jem- James!" I hooked an arm around his shoulders, causing the tips of his ears to go crimson. 

"Y-your welcome." This little Hufflepuff had stolen my heart, and there was nothing I could do about it.
