I tried the beater position and it was fun but it wasn't my thing. Nott suggests that I try the seeker because I'm fast and have good balance.

And when I do, it's so fun.

"Holy shit Cam, I think we found your calling." Nott says excitedly. "You did amazing! I think we found the position you would play if you wanted to try out for the team."

"Thanks Nott!"

"It must run in the family because you are amazing!" Zabini says to me and I notice Malfoy smirk.

"You saying I'm amazing, Zabini?" Malfoy asks him smugly and Zabini rolls his eyes. Nott crosses his arm and leans up against the wall, smirking in amusement.

"Oh get out of here with your Malfoy pride," Zabini mumbles as he throws his broom back in the shed. It was nothing less than entertaining to say the least.

"What's the matter Zabini? Can't handle a little Malfoy pride? How long have you two been friends for anyway?" I add on to Malfoy's jokes.

"Oh don't you even start, you bloody git." Zabini mumbles, "Now we have two of you to deal with."

"I don't think we're appreciated as much as we should be," I say to Malfoy who nods his head in agreement and smirks at his friend who's clearly annoyed now.

"I'm done with this. You two are so bloody annoying. Enzo isn't even as annoying as you two," Zabini says, causing Nott to cackle and Malfoy to smirk.

"He can be kind of annoying," Riddle adds. "But yeah, no where near as annoying as Malfoy."

"Who's Enzo and why is he being compared to us?" I ask the boys. Riddle shakes his head at the guys and looks between the guys and me.

"You lot haven't even told her about Enzo? That's kind of fucked," Riddle says to them.

"Are any of you going to answer my question? Or can I go and find someone who will answer me?"

"He's our cousin," Malfoy says to me. "And he's a pain in the ass."

"But he's a lot nicer than Malfoy over here, and a lot more fun." Nott adds.

"So why haven't I met him yet?"

Malfoy laughs at this and says, "You're going to meet him but he's not here right now. He's at home with his mother but he'll be back later today."

"Another bloody cousin? Is he a piece of work just like you?" I ask Malfoy and the other boys laugh as he scowls at me.

"I thought you wanted family," Malfoy says. He's completely joking but I still roll my eyes. Git.

"Maybe I take it back," I add. Riddle has no idea what we're talking about and the confused look on his face makes it so much funnier. Of course I'm sure he's out together that Malfoy and I are related since we haven't really kept that a secret from him but the how, I'm sure, is driving him insane. He seems like the kind of guy who has to know everything because if he doesn't, it makes him feel less important.

"Please tell me you're going to try out for the team?" Nott asks, avoiding eye contact with Riddle.

"I don't know," I tell him. He looks almost disappointed. "It depends on one thing."

"Oh yeah? What's that?" Zabini asks me. Nott smirks. He already knows what I'm going to say.

"If you try out with me, Nott." I say and the guys all look confused. Nott doesn't though.

"I don't know if that's a good idea... if I'm being honest-" Nott mumbles, glancing over to Riddle awkwardly.

"Don't look at him," I say firmly. "You do what you want and don't worry about him. You're amazing, we all just saw that."

"Cam-" Nott began but I cut him off and shake my head.

"No excuses Theo!" I say and he freezes. "What?"

"You called me Theo.. you've only ever called me by my last name."

"Yeah well... when you're being stupid and not trying to do something you're really good at, you get your full name so I can make my point across."

"She's not wrong Nott, you were really good and our team could really use your help." Malfoy jumps in and surprises everyone. "What? He's my best friend. I'm not going to lie to the git."

"Wait, wait, wait. You have to be kidding me right now. He's your best friend? I thought I was your best friend?" Zabini complains and Nott smirks to himself. Riddle is just standing there watching all of this.

"Okay, Merlin. You gits are annoying as fuck sometimes. I'll bloody tryout for the team." Nott smiles at us.

"Good, now that we're done with that... when can I meet this other guy?" I ask them impatiently.

"Merlin, now if he's back already." Nott says, "but I swear if he's not. I don't want to hear you complaining about it."

"Fine," I agree. "Let's go then."

"So bloody pushy," Nott mumbles. I see Malfoy and Zabini give each other a look of amusement and Riddle looking... well awkward. 

He doesn't know me, I don't know him and I have to admit that I'm not his biggest fan. He's an ass to Nott and he seems to have too much power. People are too scared of him. One things for sure, I'm not afraid of him and I'm not going to let him get away with all of this.

"Berkshire! Nice of you to finally join us!" Malfoy says as he walks into the common room and gives his cousin a hug. Nott and Zabini leave my side and go to greet their friend too but Riddle didn't move.

"I have a feeling you don't like me very much," Riddle says to me while the others are busy greeting their friend.

"Oh really? What gave you that impression?" I ask him, voice dripping with sarcasm.

"Just a hunch," Riddle says to me and smirks but I roll my eyes.

"Maybe if you weren't such an ass all the bloody time, people might like you more."

"People like me just fine," Riddle says. "All except you."

"What can I say? You're rude to my friend and I don't really appreciate that."

"You just got here, Cameron. You don't even know us. You just walked in and decided that you don't like me."

"Not true," I say. "Well, yes of course. I did just get here and yes I did just meet you. I didn't just walk in and decide I don't like you."

"Oh yeah? Then what did I do?" He asks me.

"Are you deaf? You're mean to Nott and he's my friend." I say, rolling my eyes.

"If I was nicer to Nott, would you like me?" He asks me.

"No," I reply.

"Why-"

"Come meet our new friend," I hear my friends say and I smirk to Riddle and walk away from him.

"Enzo, this is Cameron. She's you and Malfoy's cousin." Theo says to Enzo as he introduces us to each other.

"Cousin?" Enzo asks curiously as he turns his attention to Malfoy, questioning him.

"He's not lying," Malfoy says to Enzo. "She- her father is one of our mothers cousins."

"Which one?" Enzo asks him, raising an eye brow at me curiously. "Ah, it doesn't matter anyway. Hi. I'm Enzo and I suppose we're cousins."

Sarcastic?

"I'm Cameron," I say to him. "And you're right. Who my father is, is none of your business."

"Ohhhh, witty and bold." Enzo says with a smirk. "Okay, I'm convinced. She's related to us."

"I wasn't aware that you needed convincing," I say to him. He puts his hands defensively and laughs.

"Either way, it's nice to meet you." He extends his hand for me to shake it, then when I do shake his hand, he says to me, "welcome to the family."
