Too Sweet || Blaise Zabini

I'm a bit dizzy.

As soon as Simon entered the pitch with his team, his mood was on display. It could've been the way his shoulders were dropped or how he was biting the inside of his cheek, a mannerism Kali knew he did when he was anxious, that gave him away. She tried to shake away the feeling, but it was constant in her mind.

Blaise, on the other hand, looked as confident as ever. His head tall and a cocky smirk on his face. He knew they were going to win, so why not show off for a little while. Immediately, he saw Kali and gave her a thumbs up. She tried to smile back but it came out twisted.

Furrowing his eyebrows, Blaise tried to get a closer look at her face, but he had a game to play and the people around her were jumping and cheering, so her expression was almost impossible to read. He decided to concentrate on the game and find her after they were done.

Carla leaned towards Kali, trying to keep her words low. "Draco looks delectable right now."

This made Kali laugh and broke her out of her trance. "You should tell him that."

"He'll explode or something." She snickered as an answer. "It's enough that everytime I'm near him he turns red as a tomato."

"Maybe he likes you." Kali shrugged, that was a very big possibility. "You make him nervous."

This satisfied Carla because she turned ahead with a bright smile and a content gleam in her eyes. Flirting with Draco was easy because he didn't flirt back. Camden liked spitballing with her, and that made her nervous. Her best friend had a boyfriend, so it was only fair she flirted with his friends, it's the way of the world.

The quidditch game started and it was evident Simon's head wasn't in it. He almost fell off his broom twice, resulting in Slytherin taking the lead. The others from the Ravenclaw team looked at Simon with annoyance, but he snarled something at them that made them shut up.

Blaise was having fun and flying circles around the other team. Truthfully, it was a bit boring because they didn't have a chance against them. Slytherin was a force to be messed with, especially when they were out for blood. They were brash and unapologetic with their plays, not caring who got hurt in the process.

Kali wasn't enjoying this game. She felt horrible for what she did to Simon, even if he wronged her. She wasn't one for revenge, which made her think of Penelope. She was so sad around the school, doing Simon's bidding. Maybe that was how Kali looked a few months ago, but she still felt bad.

Her stomach started churning with dread, but she tried to fake a smile. Carla held onto her arm, like she knew what was happening. She probably did, yet Kali decided to focus on Blaise up in the air and how it felt to fly.

Slytherin won and she didn't even notice. Once Carla started screaming and jumping up and down like a madwoman, she followed suit and did the same thing. Blaise looked proud as can be up there.

They made eye contact and she broke it, still not over the ache that she felt. Carla yanked her hand and pulled her down to where the boys were. Camden opened his arms and both girls wasted no time jumping into them. He didn't play but he's part of the team.

"This is all thanks to Kali!" He exclaimed and hugged them tighter.

Those words brought her back to reality and she felt down again. Her friends didn't notice because she tried her best to be happy for the win.

"I'm a bit dizzy." She touched her head. "Tell Blaise I'll see him later, okay?" Before they could answer she rushed towards her dorm, just wanting to overthink alone on her bed.

Blaise noticed her escape and went to ask Carla what happened. "Where is my girlfriend off to?" He asked, yet he really wanted to know.

"She felt dizzy." Carla answered, starings to where Kali just left. "She's probably going to our dorm."

Blaise didn't know what happened, but as soon as he showered he would go ask. For now, he was sweaty and probably smelled, so he needed to freshen up.
