THE ARCHER — TAYLOR SWIFT
'I see right through me, I see right through me.'

"Come on, Cassie!" Mattheo belts from about 15 feet below. Cassie pushes herself even further on her broom, speeding up. She's neck-and-neck with the Ravenclaw seeker, Cho Chang.

Chang has been talking to her brother at lot recently, leading Cassie to believe she has a crush on him— he seems to like her back, though. That's a good thing, Cedric needs something to take his mind off of everything going on. Normally, Cassie would be happy for him, but seeing as she's inches away from hexing her off her broom right now, it's a little difficult.

Cassie's fingers slip around the snitch and the crowd erupt into roars. Cassie winks at Cho and she rolled her eyes. She has adrenaline flowing through every single one of her veins. "Black does it again! Slytherin win 240-60!" Lee Jordan exclaims.

Cassie lowers her broom down to the level of the stands. Draco & Pansy are cheering louder than anyone. Cedric is grinning and clapping, standing next in between Eddie and Draco.

She lowers her broom even further, hopping off her Firebolt. Before she gets the chance to move, Cassie is bombarded by her team.

Cassie made the not-so difficult decision of keeping Mattheo and Theo on the team. However, she made a new addition to the team of none other than Lorenzo Berkshire.

Because of the tournament, there are less quidditch matches this year. Opposed to the usual three or four a term— it's now one or two. It's their first match since the start of term, and Cassie is so grateful she made the right choices.

Another chaser is a boy called Brian Duke. He's good— just not as good as Mattheo and Enzo seem to be.

"You're brilliant!" Lexi shouts, heckling Cassie with a hug.

Her team surround her with cheers and she chuckles. "Thank you everyone. But come on, give it up for Enzo and Brian— our newest teammates. You two played incredibly, and I'm confident we can win the cup this year."

Everyone claps for Enzo and Brian as Cassie does with a grin. She kisses him on the cheek and he wraps an arm around her neck, pulling her into his side.

After they had all calmed down, the Slytherins walk off the pitch with the blaring crowd behind them and victorious adrenaline. Cassie's arm is linked with Theo's but as he's so tall she has to reach up that bit further.

They go their separate ways into the girls and boys changing rooms. Cassie and Lexi take off their jerseys and grab their stuff from their dark-green lockers. "How do you do it, Cass?" Lexi ask as they head down to the Slytherin common room.

"Do what?" Cassie replies, her eyebrows furrowed.

"Win like almost every match."

"Oh stop it."

"No, your talent needs to be recognised! You're the main reason we have so many wins. We're literally one win away from overruling Gryffindor."

Cassie smiles and tucks her hair behind her ears. "Well, Quidditch is my form of a coping mechanism, I guess. My insomnia is so bad that I end up saving up all of my energy for matches."

Lexi nods slowly, "How many wins do you have compared to Potter?"

"I have thirty-nine and he has forty."

"Merlin! That's amazing! Doesn't your brother only have like twenty two? Chang only has fourteen— she isn't a brilliant seeker, that's for sure."

Cassie chuckles, "It's not just me that helps us win, you guys play a massive part in matches."
