Gryffindor vs. Slytherin

JACK

     She was eating Knickerbocker glory beside Rapunzel when Jack saw her from the Ravenclaw table; she was also in the middle of eating the strawberry that was once on the icing. He occupied the vacant seat beside her and rested the staff on the table, "Well, today's the day," he started.

     "Yeah, today is the day," Elsa said as a matter-of-factly, "Your Quidditch uniform suits you."

     Jack looked down to what he's wearing: a cape, a jersey with shin, arm guards and fingerless gloves. It was in a color scheme of green and silver. Jack thought it was rather hot. As Jack looked up, Rapunzel was also checking his attire.

     "This is a nice place to die, Hogwarts." Jack smiled.

     Elsa hit him on the arm, "Stop that-true, but stop it."

     "Mind you, Jack. At least Elsa's not worrying, and she's your girlfriend," Rapunzel interjected. Jack was now vigorously shaking his head, "Oh no, Elsa and I are not –"he said.

     Elsa laughed, "I appreciate your concern, but no, Jack and I are not like that." she said to Rapunzel.

     Jack coughed and said, "not yet," in between his coughing.

     "It must be hard for you to choose between Gryffindor and Slytherin, Raps," Elsa said. "Not really, no. Hiccup and I sort of agreed that I will be cheering for Merida and he'll be cheering for Jack." Rapunzel said.

     "You won't be cheering for me?" Jack said, pretending to be hurt.

     Rapunzel only looked at him and giggled, "Speaking of Hiccup, I actually have to go find him now; and hey," she turned to Jack, "you'll be fine. Don't do anything stupid and you won't die," and she was long gone.

     Jack had joined his Quidditch team by the Great Hall entrance with Elsa still beside him. With her wand, she had replaced the colors of her scarf to green and silver. She caught Jack smiling down at her, "You'll have Hiccup and I to cheer for your name."

     "Are you sure you're still going?" Elsa asked uncertainly.

     "Of course, If I am to spend my last day, I'm going to spend it with doing something I've been longing to do all my life." He said, she gave him a look, but couldn't help get curios of what he was referring to.

     "Quidditch?"

     Jack nodded, "Sure...but flying is better."

     Elsa took a step closer to him, "Well, if I am to spend your last day with you, I'll be doing something I've been longing to do as well."

     "What is that?"

     Surprisingly, he thought Elsa suddenly got taller and next thing he knew, her lips were pressed against his. Jack waited for the butterflies, but the kiss was cut shorter than he expected. He could hear the Slytherin team cheering wildly at them.

     "That," Elsa smiled.

     Jack's mouth was in a perfect 'o'. "We're not...we're not just hanging out anymore, are we?"
