Choices ~ Draco Malfoy

Chapter 17

Two nights later, it was the day for the Quidditch trials and it seemed that the whole entire school, well, maybe except for the majority of the Slytherins, came out to watch the Gryffindor trials that was being held before our trials, lead by Harry. Willow and I stood at the west entrance to the pitch in our emerald green Quidditch robes.

'Why're there Hufflepuffs in the line?' Willow said right before Harry noticed them and his face went red with rage.

'Mucking around from the looks of it.' I said as we watched the group of Hufflepuffs run off the pitch, laughing amount themselves. Harry caught my eyes and shook his head, causing me to chuckle.

'Oh look at poor Nott, can't flirt with our Lynn now can he?' I saw Willow smirking, looking over at the stands where Lynn was sitting with Levi and his mates that weren't trying out, in front of Nott, Tracy, Daphne, Pansy, Crabbe and Goyle. They were jeering at the Gryffindors earlier, so... They're here for a different reason.

'We'll see what happens when Levi comes down here.'

He was usually the Slytherin team's Beater and he was trialling again this year.

Willow laughed. 'But with Tracy, Daphne and all Levi's friends near her, he'll have not chance.'

'True.' I laughed too.

We watched Ginny out fly every one else that were trying out for Gryffindor's Chaser and Harry looked very satisfied. It wasn't until the Keeper's trials when I realised Ron standing nervously next to a tall, muscular looking guy with curly chestnut coloured hair, who looked very arrogant and up himself. He also looked familiar to me. Also, Draco, Edmund and Blaise came down to the entrance along with several other people who were trialling for Slytherin's team.

'Hey isn't that –' Willow began.

'Weasley?' I heard Draco and Blaise snigger.

'McLaggen!' Edmund roared with laughter, causing some head to turn around to his direction, including mine.

'Lucky you didn't eat Doxy eggs in front of our princess this time, McLaggen!' I heard Levi jeer from the stands and his mates were also roaring with laughter and Edmund laughed even more further. At the same time the McLaggen guy shot a death glare over to Levi's direction, he had stood up, gave Lynn a quick kiss on the cheek and disappeared from the stands, possibly coming down here.

'Oh so that's where I remember him.' I said, mostly to myself but Ed obviously heard me and went back into fits of laughter.

'You remember it?' He choked, sounding delighted.

'Well, yeah. I was wondering who would do such a stupid thing -'

Edmund laughed really loudly, which I thought was a very un-Edmund-like move. 

'Oh thanks Sally, I can use that to pay him out.' He wiped away a tear from his eyes as he said so.

'No Ed - don't do that. That's mean -'

'There's no need to be such a lady to him, Sally.' Levi appeared in the doorway, looking slightly puffed but was smirking at the same time.

'Why not?' I frowned.

'Why not?' Ed and Levi said at the same time, sniggering. 'Because he's a twat.'

'Trust me Sally, us seventh years don't like him at all. Even most of the Gryffindors don't, except for his group.' I looked around to see Ed's girlfriend, Rhea walking up to us. 'He's so up himself.' She said as she wrapped her arms around Ed.

'See?' My brother said, smirking and kissing Rhea on the cheek. 'Even Rhea says it.'

She was one of the sweetest person I knew and that coming out from her mouth surprised me so much.
