Quiddich Tryouts

2/9/94 pt.2

quiddich tryouts. Ivory stood eagerly on the quiddich pitch, her firebolt gripped tight in her left hand and her right hand placed on her hip. She hadn't known that Malfoy was the captain of the team, she probably wouldn't have bothered trying out if she had known, it was too late now though.

Ivory and a few other slytherins, mainly boys, were trying out for the chaser position. Malfoy started off tryouts by eliminating the slytherins he thought to be unfit to play, whether that be first years too confident in their abilities or people so weak one gust of wind would blow them off their broom.

"Flint, I expect you to live up to your brothers name. After all, he was one of the best captains we've had in years."

"Trust me, Malfoy, I wont disappoint."

Malfoy sorted the remaining slytherins into groups and demanded they all started playing in order for him to determine who would make the team.

After sending a few more unsuitable slytherins off the pitch, he finally demanded the games stop as he had finally made his decision.

"Our beaters are Crabbe and Goyle, as per usual. Keeper is Pucey and chasers are Nott, Zabini and Flint. I expect you all here for practices, we don't play to lose."

Ivory almost felt overjoyed. She felt so powerful knowing that she beat a bunch of boys who were apparently 'stronger' in a game as brutal as quiddich. over the years, when her brother was captain, she was unable to play, knowing he wouldn't approve because 'girls don't play quiddich.' His constant sexism was awfully tiring, Ivory was glad to be rid of her brother.

"Flint, I need to discuss some things with you." Fucking Malfoy, Ivory forgot he would be her captain.

"Yes, Malfoy?"

"There isn't a female changing room, you'll have to find somewhere else to change."

"Wonderful, anything else?"

"Actually, yes. Good job, I'm surprised you can even hold a bludger."

Ivory was visibly shocked, "Uhh, thank you, I guess."

Malfoy simply nodded before walking off to the changing room, Ivory walking in the opposite direction.

Ivory walked into her dorm, a smile plastered across her muddy face. Who knew quiddich was such a dirty sport?

"Sooo?" Ivorys best friend, Pansy asked. The girls all knew of Ivorys hope of getting on the team as a chaser.

"Guess who just became the first female slytherin chaser in 50 years?!"

All of the girls in the dorm let out a large squeal, the one most girls make when they get excited over a boy. Pansy even got up and hugged Ivory.

"Congratulations Ives!"

At that moment in time, Ivory knew this school year would be great.

☄︎. *. ⋆

In the common room later that night, Ivory sat comfortably in front of the fireplace. She wanted some peaceful time alone before the school year became too stressful.

It seemed Malfoy also wanted that, as he walked into the common room wearing a pair of grey tracksuit bottoms and a white shirt which slightly hugged his faint abs.

"Malfoy," Ivory nodded

"Flint." He replied

"We should give up the hunt to find Pansys secret lover, I feel bad going against her."

"I was going to say the exact same thing, Flint, maybe the others are right."

"What do you mean?"

"Maybe we are basically the same person, except i'm sexier and funnier and-"

"Ha ha Malfoy, very funny."

He chuckled, and the room fell silent once more. They sat like that for a while, just enjoying each others company for once.

When Ivory decided to go to bed, Draco said a simple "Goodnight, flint." To which Ivory returned the favour.

She didn't know what the repulsing feeling was in her stomach, well, it wasn't repulsing. It was as if she had a million tiny butterflies invading her stomach. Weird She thought, but shrugged it off entirely, deciding to hop in the shower before going to bed.
