13. First Quidditch Match!

(Y/N POV)

I'm getting ready for my first quidditch match, and I'm so nervous. Draco runs up to me, "Hey L/N!" I look at him and smile. "Hey, Malfoy!"

"I just came to wish you good luck," he says, patting me on the back.

"Thank you! I feel like I'm gonna need it..."

"You'll do great, okay?" Marcus walks up to us. "Nervous, Y/N?"

"A little, but I got this," I say smiling at Draco.

"Y/N, you remember your position and what you need to do?" Marcus asks me.

I nod. "I'm a seeker, I focus on catching the Snitch."

(Draco POV)

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I actually have faith in her. I'm sure she will do just fine. And a girl seeker? That's new. She's gonna be amazing, I know it. I go back to sit in the stands with Crabbe and Goyle.

(Y/N POV)

Wow.. Draco actually believes in me? We grab our brooms and start walking towards the Slytherin entrance. First, they announce Gryffindor, then Slytherin. We start flying out. I get in my position. Bludgers are up...Quaffle is released...Snitch! There it is! I start flying after it when I see him. Harry... Dang it. He's Gryffindor's seeker. We are both chasing the Snitch at this point while Slytherin is scoring on Gryffindor.

(Draco POV)

I don't know how she's managing this, but she flies around so gracefully. She looks... pretty. Her and Potter are both chasing the Snitch, but she's so close! I can't stop smiling at her, staring, cheering for her. Crabbe and Goyle look at me as if I've gone mad, but I ignore them. Gryffindor is now in the lead. I know she's got this...

(Y/N POV)

Harry and I are both chasing the Snitch when all of a sudden, his broom starts wigging out. It's going everywhere, he can't control it! I look over in the stands, and I see Snape muttering a curse! Hermione seems to have noticed too, she looks like she's going to take care of it.

(Draco POV)

What the heck? She stopped. Why is she stopping for Potter! It's not her fault he can't handle himself. Screw it. "Y/N, the Snitch!" I yell, pointing that it's right next to her.

(Y/N POV)

"Y/N, the Snitch!" Draco yells. I look and it's right next to me! Then I look at Harry, he's hanging from his broom by his hands. We're at least 50 feet in the air! I go to help him onto my broom, when all of a sudden, he gets back on. "The Snitch," he says. "You were going to help me when you didn't have to. Take it, hurry!" I grab the Snitch.

(Draco POV)

YES! SHE CAUGHT THE SNITCH!

"Y/N L/N has caught the Snitch, ending the game! Slytherin wins!" Lee Jordan announces.

"Yes!" I yell. Everyone is cheering, chanting her name.

(Y/N POV)

Oh my god! I did it! I caught the Snitch! I won us the match! I can't stop smiling! All my teammates fly over to me, high fiving me. We all go back to the Slytherin common room, and Marcus lifts me up onto his shoulders. Everyone is chanting my name and cheering for me! This is so cool! Draco comes up to me and Marcus puts me down, smirking and walking away.

"Hey, nice job Y/N! I knew you could do it!"

I blush. "Th-Thanks, Draco.." I say while rubbing my neck.

He looks me in the eyes. "I'm proud of you, you did good."

I smirk at him. "Still think I'm a disgrace to Slytherin?" I ask.

He rolls his eyes. "Don't take advantage of me being nice, L/N."

I giggle, and Crabbe and Goyle come over and congratulate me as well. After the celebration party is over, I head to bed with a smile on my face. Tomorrow, I need to talk to them...
