Ottery St Catchpole
Devon, England



There was a forest behind the Coelho residence. While most child were afraid to play in the woods due to their parents' telling stories how there are monsters inside, Cordelia Coelho was the child who never believe in such stories.


While her father was working, her mother taking a short trip to the grocery, Cordelia also decided to go out of the house and into the woods to play. There she saw a small golden ball, flying in the air - literally flying with it's small wings resembling an insects. 


It was fast and Cordelia was waiting for a moment to lunged out and was able to proceed with her plan. She jumped out of a bush and grabbed the small thing before rolling on the ground, but what she thought she landed on the wet earth, she heard a groan.


"Ugh!" 


She immediately got up and saw that she landed on top of a boy, the same age as hers with ginger hair and eyes that share the hue to a bright, sunny day and he is dressed in shabby yet comfortable clothes. "I'm sorry." 


The boy blushed but quickly got up, "I'm sorry too." There was an awkward pause before the boy said, "You're good at hiding and also catching the snitch." He pointed to the thing in her fist.


"Snitch? You call this a snitch?" She giggled and raised her fist, she could still feel how it was trying to spread its wings and fly away, "How could this 'snitch' fly like an insect? Is it battery operated?"


The boy looked puzzled at first before quickly turning red, both his ears and cheeks are slowly turning into the shade of his hair. "Give it back. "


"No, it's finder's keeper." She grinned and teasingly placed her fist forward, making him more irritated but he just sighed and pouted.


"But that's- alright," The boy defeatedly pouted, "But promise me, that you'll give it back next year."  


"Only if we go on a match next year and see who could catch it first, because you know - finder's keeper." She repeated and placed her other hand that was free, "I'm Cordelia, nice to meet you."


"Bill. Bill Weasley."
