"How do you wanna go about waking them up?" Remus questioned as he and Peter stood by the door. They'd spent a good 10 minutes getting past all of the charms the couple placed.

"The classic way." Sirius simply responded, floating a pitcher of ice cold water over the couple. "I don't think that's a very good idea..." Peter said

"It'll be fine."

He tipped the pitcher and all the cold water spilled onto them. James and Ascella shot up and gasped for air.
Ascella's gray eyes landed on Sirius's grin and her eyes flashed with fury. "I will castrate you WITH MY BARE HANDS SIRIUS BLACK!"

"So maybe it won't be fine."

Just as she went to launch herself at her cousin, James held her back. "Remember what you're wearing, or rather lack thereof, love." He whispered in her ear.

She blushed a crimson color and pulled the wet blanket closer to her almost bare chest. "What time is it?"

"Half past 8, you need to be on the pitch by 10. I suggest removing the smell of sex from yourselves and eating a good breakfast before playing Slytherin." Remus stated, fixing them both with a brotherly glare that said 'do what I say, or else'.

"Alright then, will you be at the game?" Ascella questioned, as she reached for her wand. "I don't think it to be wise, its the full moon tonight and I don't need to be around the extra people today."

"We'll make an appearance after the game then we'll meet you at the same place as always, yeah?" James asked as he slid his glasses onto his face.

"That works for me. See you down there in a bit then." Remus said and he began to walk out of the room with Peter.
"Hey Remus?"
"Hm?"
"Take Sirius with you, so I don't end him where he stands." Ascella said, throwing a glare at her cousin. "C'mon Pads. Now."

Sirius protested the entire way out.

Once the door closed behind them, Ascella threw a nonverbal locking spell at the door and turned to James with a smile on her face. "Well, good morning gorgeous." He said, peppering light kisses all over her face.

"Good morning to you too." She responded, leaning her forehead against his. They sat there for a few moments, just taking in eachothers touch and energy.
"We have to get ready." Ascella finally murmered. "I don't wanna get up." James whined pulling her tight against his body.

"What if I told you we could try the shower thing you were talking about a while back?" She questioned.
"Right now?" He asked hopefully, deflating when Ascella shook her head. "After the game, and if we win, you might even get an extra surprise."

"Merlin, I love you Ascella Black."
"And I you, James Potter."

Dressed in full Quidditch getup, Ascella and James met up in the middle of the pitch. They did their good luck handshake before everyone took their positions.

James shook hands with the captain of the Slytherin team.
The whistle blew, balls went up, and 14 brooms shot to the sky.
Ascella's eyes were peeled, waiting for the snitch to make its appearance on that sunny Friday morning.

From the corner of her eye she saw a bludger headed her way and swerved, diving for the ground as if she saw the Snitch. Regulus must've seen her dive as he was soon at her side prepared to knock her off the broom.

Just as they were a few feet off the ground, she pulled up and shot into the air where the snitch was flitting about.

"POTTER SCORES, GRYFFINDOR IS IN THE LEAD— AND ASCELLA BLACK HAS EYES ON THE SNITCH! SLYTHERIN SEEKER REGULUS BLACK ISN'T LETTING ASCELLA GET AWAY WITH THIS AS THEY BATTLE FOR HIGHER GROUND—!"

Ascella fell back and went around, nearly grabbing the snitch before Regulus slammed into her side. "You prick!" She called out, as she held on tightly to her broom. He smirked.

She spotted it underneath him and zoomed forward, reaching out her pale hand and—

"ASCELLA BLACK CAUGHT THE GOLDEN SNITCH! GRYFFINDOR WINS!"

The Gryffindor section of the stands went wild as Ascella held the snitch in the sunlight. Sirius and James rushed to her side as they took a victory lap, necessary for pictures, before finally landing with the rest of the team.

"We did it!" She cheered happily. "Yeah we did!"
