A romantic adventure

Chapter 11- quidditch

(Y/n POV)
Term restarted and I kept trying to avoid Severus. I was always the first out of potions, and I wouldn't really talk to him whilst helping the first and second years. However this was the absolute least of my worries, I had a quidditch game to look forward to. The typical Slytherin. The absolute dirtiest quidditch players I've ever encountered believe me they're rough as fuck. Gryffindor and Ravenclaw play a bit roughly but Slytherin was on a whole other level.

My team and I were in the changing rooms preparing for the match, I had my head in my hands stressing about strategies to win. Also if I managed to win for hufflepuff today we would make history as it would be the first time we won in 300 years. Whenever a plan went into action, we never succeeded, Rowan came up to me and started to reassure me "hey (y/n), what you stressing about?" She asked as Josh came up to me too with a concerned face. Josh was our keeper.

"Yeah,(y/n) what's bothering?" He said with concern.

"It's nothing really, just the fact I can't think of any good strategies, I want to win for hufflepuff so badly, I want to make Professor Sprout so proud,"

"Don't worry (y/n) you never fail to make Professor sprout proud, besides why do you think she chose you to be captain of the hufflepuff quidditch team," Hannah replied, she was one of the chasers.

"Hannah's right, Professor sprout wouldn't have chose you if you would disappoint her and you won't, you always try your best and you motivate us to do our all, so come on stop stressing we can do it!" Shouted Kyle. He was another chaser, along with Anna. Rowan and Sebbie were beaters and I you may ask. I'm a seeker. A very stressful role, if you catch the snitch, you win the game but trouble is, all attention is on you, you get picked on if you don't win. I know very well how the stress of being seeker is, Harry can relate too as he's seeker of the Gryffindor team.

"Yeah Kyle's right, we can do this! Together," Rowan replied.

"Right then, thanks guys, I'd be totally lost without you. Let's get out there! We'll do this! Together!"

"No, we'd be lost without you, (y/n), you've been the best captain since Cedric Diggory, it's in your blood as you're his cousin," Kyle said. "Come on guys gather round!" All of our team gathered in a circle and put our hands in the middle. "HUFFLEPUFF ON 3! 1!2!3!"

"HUFFLEPUFF!!!" We all yelled. After that we got set up on our brooms and waited for until we could go. We went off on to the pitch and took our positions with me obviously in front of Felix, giving his typical death stare. Madam Hooch then came out to the pitch, saying warning us for a "nice clean game" particularly aiming at Slytherin, Merlin the lot of that team are so filthy.

The quaffle was thrown. The game began.
Right off the bat, Kyle caught the quaffle and headed straight for the post, threw it into the hoops and scored us 10 points, I'm so glad I chose him to be one of our chasers because he is truly agile. Anna is great too, she's fast and has great reflexes Hannah too was always occupied on the quaffle and tried to snatch it at any point to score us some points.

One of the bludgers headed straight for me, gee I wonder why. Luckily Sebbie came to my rescue and beat that wretched thing away from me, "thanks!"

"It's nothing! (Y/n) Over there!" He pointed to near that one gryffindor box and there it was in all its glory. The golden snitch. I immediately flew over giving Sebbie another smile, I got to say I'd be lost without him. I flew at defo the speed of a tiger rushing to eat a small animal at full potential, to my fucking luck that shitting snitch thought it was appropriate to fly away.

"Oh my merlin are you fucking joking," I curse under my breath. To my right I saw Felix going at full speed. Oh no he's seen the snitch. Good thing I looked right on time as the snitch flew in a different direction from where Felix was going. Oh yay my time!
