Y/n's POV

Today is the first match of the year. Gryffindor vs. Slytherin. I woke up super early. I waited for the rest of the team, in the locker room, already changed. The Slytherin Quidditch Captain was in the locker room second. He chuckled when he saw me sitting there already.

"I thought I was going to be the first one here. Guess you beat me to it."

I smiled. First match. Against the Gryffindors. Our ultimate enemy.

A very boring hour of our QC talking (and me pleading to have a clean game) passed and it was time to go out. I rode my broom to my position, sneering at the Gryffindor seeker.

(A/n: So here, I'm gonna make up some names because I don't wanna keep using 'The Quidditch Captain,' 'One of the Chasers,' etc. Here are the names:

Narrator's POV

When the referee blew the whistle, the game started. Y/n, from above, could hear the commentator speak through the microphone, "Madam Harrington releases the balls and the game is on! Chase immediately snatches the Quaffle and heads towards the Gryffindor goals. She ducks under a Bludger sent by Scott and passes the Quaffle to Robinson. Robinson throws the Quaffle,  Lexington misses and ten points to Slytherin!"

All this was going through Y/n's mind for the first 12 minutes, when she saw it. The flash of something fast and golden. The Golden Snitch.

Y/n's POV

Once I saw it, I raced after the Snitch, Devin on my tail. I tried to shake him off, but he still followed closely. A Bludger came at me. I flipped upside-down, hanging from my broom, and hearing a sickening crack behind me. I flipped again, upside-up this time. I circled around the Gryffindor goals, after the Snitch and came up with an idea as Devin came up to me again, his nose slightly bleeding. I abruptly stopped and started circling the goal posts the other way and right before I could touch the Snitch, a Bludger came at me, again. I think Bella sent it, but I retracted my hand quickly and the Snitch disappeared.

After another three minutes, I saw it again, this time, I had to be on Devin's tail. The Snitch suddenly dove down, and we both did too, at a very steep drop. The ball leveled out almost when it touched the ground. Devin chose to get out of the dive, leaving me alone, to ascend steeply, until he met me to chase the Snitch. It went through a Gryffindor goal, and I did too (not that I had a choice anyways, considering the speed I was going at). I finally caught it when I almost knocked the hat off of Professor Dumbledore. When we ended, I was raised on the shoulders of my team, celebrating. I visited Devin (who got a broken nose), to shake hands, because I have good sportsmanship, and then I went to Professor Dumbledore.

When I walked into his office, he seemed really amused. "I'm sorry Professor that I almost took your hat off."

His eyes twinkled, "Not many Slytherins are as... considerate as you, Miss Lysander."

I nodded, "Okay. I'm also sorry that your team lost, but I'm happy because my team won."

He chuckled at this. We chatted a few more minutes, and headed in different directions.
