Y/n's POV

⋅•☆────✧.·☽✦☾·.✧────☆•⋅

It wouldn't be Hogwarts without the vigorous Quidditch practices Oliver would set. I absolutely love quidditch but Merlin, it might be the death of me.

We've been doing multiple laps around the pitch, practicing passing the ball around from different distances, flying with different obstacles while things get thrown at us. I've never felt so exhausted.

"I feel like-" I ducked down as a bludger flew by, "we've been doing this for hours."

Katie, Alicia and Angelina were flying by my side as we did another lap.

"Tell me about it. And yet We still have 20 minutes left of practice." Alicia replied as she looked down at her watch.

Katie, Angelina and I let out exhausted groans.

"Y/n, ask Oliver for a break." Angelina pleaded as we finished our latest lap.

"Why me?" I tried to catch my breath, my lungs were burning from all the exercise.

"Because he has a soft spot for you. Like you're his baby sister." Katie stated.

I let out a sigh as I reluctantly flew over to where Oliver was.

"Hello Y/n, what brings you here?" He asked me with a grin.

"Hey Oliver, you don't mind if we all take a short break? So we can have a bit of a breather and hydrate ourselves." I requested with the most charming smile I could put on. Praying to whoever could hear me that he would say yes.

Oliver contemplated on the request but he soon gave a affirmative nod. "Alright team! You can take a 10 minute break. After that I'll just have a short recap on our plays then you can go."

I let out a relieved sigh, a grin grew on my face as I hugged Oliver. "Thank You so much Ollie."

He chuckled as he returned the hug, "No problem, kid." He pulled away from the hug, "Now go take that break, your 10 minutes starts now." He joked as he tried to put on a serious face.

I grinned, "alright, alright, Don't rush me." I laughed as I flew down towards the rest of the team.

"Okay, I knew he had a soft spot for you but damn, 10 minutes and a short recap on plays then we're free? Teach me your ways, Carrington." Angelina said with an impressed grin.

"It's easy. Be cute and adorable like me and you'll have anything you want." I replied.

"You're nothing against me." Harry replied with a sly grin.

"As if, come back to me when you score us a 15 minute break from Ollie." I replied.

We all chuckled along before we went off to hydrate and relax as much as we could.

I looked up at the stands to see a few students scattered around. My eyes soon spotted Makayla and Pansy. They both waved at me to come over so that's what I did.

I sat down by Makayla with a relieved sigh as I sunk into the seat.

"You look exhausted." Makayla said.
