James Potter

The first quidditch match of the year was Slytherin vs Hufflepuff, and the new slytherin captain wasn't having any of the foul play Flint had let his team get away with. She trained her players hard, warning them to play fair or else.

But of course they didn't listen. And that's how 3 hufflepuff players ended up in the hospital wing. Suffice to say, Y/N was fuming.

The marauders were walking away from the pitch when the slytherin team came out of the locker room, their captain slamming the door behind her. "Bellford! Crabbe! I don't know what you were thinking out there, but it will not happen again! I am NOT Flint, and any foul play will result in punishment!" The boys stopped, watching the girl get riled up, enjoying the shouting the bullies were getting. "Or what? What you gonna do huh? Go to Dumbledore, boo hoo!" James was so close to slapping them for disrespecting their captain,  but apparently she had it covered. "No, you'll be off the team faster than you can say misogynistic, if you even know what that means."
Crabbe was furious, "What! You can't do that!"
"I don't care how much money your daddy paid for you to get on the team, it's mine now and I will not tolerate bullying!"
Damn this girls got balls, James thought.
The Slytherin team rolled their eyes, tutting and going back to the castle.  Y/N seemed to notice the boys then, giving them a sweet smile and a nod before marching after her team.

"Say, pads do you think she'll really do it?"
"Do what prongs?"
"Kick all those influential people off the team?"
"I have no clue, but we'll find out in a week won't we; the next match is gryffindor vs slytherin, and they sure as hell won't play fair then."
Remus spoke up, "knowing Y/N the most, I can truthfully say she will do it, and those boys will not be happy."
James turned to him, "how'd you know her?"
"She's in my charms and potions study group, as well as frequenting the library, so we read together from time to time."
"Oh right then."

Finally the day of the quidditch match was here, and tensions were high between the two houses. The captains, James and Y/N, shook hands, weakly smiling at each other. The weather was cold, harsh and rainy, making for a gruelling match. As Sirius predicted, Slytherin did not play fair, forcing people off their brooms with bludgers etc.  James was watching Y/N, noticing how she became increasingly infuriated with her teams play. Taking advantage of his distracted demeanor,  Crabbe launched a bludger at James, causing him to fall over 100ft to the ground. Y/N turned at the scream of the crowd, watching his body hit the floor with a crack. This was the final straw. As James' unconscious body was taken to the infirmary, Y/N flew over to madame Hooch, exchanging words before the latter flew over to the commentary box. "And with Gryffindor keeper James Potter wounded, Slytherin captain Y/N Y/L/N calls for forfeit by her team   who apparently don't look too pleased at the news. Ladies and gentlemen,  Gryffindor wins!" The cheers were deafening, but Y/N stormed into the locker room and dressed  before her team got there. She was going to have words.

James Potter woke up 2 days later with bandages covering his entire body barr his head. Sirius and Remus jumped up from their seats, rushing to see if he was okay. "I'm fine guys, but you're making my head hurt. Say who won the match?"
"We did, Y/N forfeited after seeing you injured, she was not pleased, you could hear the shouting from the pitch where we were celebrating. Apparently she told Crabbe that he was a useless bully who couldn't get anything he wanted unless his father bought it for him, like he bought his way onto the quidditch team. "
James laughed, "Ooh that hurts, well son of a bitch she did it, she actually went against the death eaters, probably bringing hell on herself but still, she's got balls."
"Thanks James." The boys turned to see Y/N standing there, smiling at James. "I came to see how you were, and to apologise again for Crabbes actions,  he's off the team anyways."
"Again?"
"She visited several times, she's been quite worried actually." Remus whispered. The hospital door slammed open before James could reply, a very angry looking Bellford and Crabbe standing there. "Y/L/N WHAT IS THIS!"
"Why it's a sheet of paper."
"We know that," Crabbe gritted his teeth, " But what the hell is on it!"
"Oh, an open invitation for quidditch practice next week, it seems I'm in need of two chasers, a seeker, and two beaters."
"But that's a whole team!"
"Out with the old, in with the new."
The boys were beet red by this point, stuttering over their words in their anger. Y/N turned back to James, placing chocolate on his bedside table with a smile. "Excuse me gentlemen while I deal with these twats, but I'll be back later to check on you of that's okay, get well soon James. "

And as she walked away, dragging two massive boys behind her, James knew she was the one for him
