Jaebum shook hands with the Ravenclaw captain and took a quick glance at the rest of his team. He had heard rumors about the Ravenclaw's Seeker. He was careful and strategic, but very fast and agile. The Ravenclaw captain stepped in his way before he could see to the end of line, though, cutting off his vision.

The teams moved to line up in their positions. This would be Jaebum's chance to see the Ravenclaw Seeker.

He settled into position, his broom ready, and glanced over at the Ravenclaw Seeker.

His eyes widened and he felt a lump growing in his throat. Mark met his gaze and gave him a small smile.

Jaebum felt his cheeks heating up and quickly looked away. God, he couldn't play Mark. The Gryffindor team's chances of winning had just plummeted to almost zero.

He tried to focus on the cheers of the crowd and his teammates' direction, instead of the beating of his heart.

Then the whistle was blown and Jaebum soared up into the sky, looking desperately around for the Snitch. As soon as the game was started, he forgot about Mark and focused on his roll, not only as Seeker, but as Captain.

He quickly spotted the Snitch and rushed toward it. Finding the Snitch was the easy part, catching it was not. He gritted his teeth, urging his broom to fly faster. He twisted past the other players, his eyes trained on the golden ball in front of him.

"Don't overexert yourself."

The voice sent chills up Jaebum's spine and his broom slowed down for a second as he quickly glanced over his shoulder. Mark was close on his tail, a confident grin on his pink lips.

He glanced back ahead as Mark rushed past him. He gritted his teeth and pushed his broom faster, cursing at himself. He'd let himself get distracted and now he'd lost sight of the Snitch.

Mark angled his broom up and Jaebum did the same, knowing that wherever the Snitch went, so did Mark.

Mark reached an arm out, trying to grab the Snitch, but the golden ball twisted to the side suddenly and Mark lost his grip. He slipped down a bit, almost falling off of his broom, but Jaebum rushed forward and grabbed the end of the broom, correcting it so Mark didn't fall.

The Ravenclaw glanced over at him, breathing heavily. "Thanks", he said, smiling. His hair fell in his face and he pushed it back with a hand, making Jaebum's heart nearly burst.

"N-No problem", Jaebum stuttered, hoping that the exertion could be used as an excuse for his red face. Mark smirked and flipped his broom around, searching the sky for the Snitch.

"Doesn't mean I'm going to go easy on you", Mark replied, before rushing off to the other side of the stadium. Jaebum watched for a second, then laughed, following after the Ravenclaw.

Jaebum didn't pay attention to the amount of points his team had, or if they were winning. He only payed attention to Mark and the Snitch. The two were caught up in a long race. As soon as one got to the Snitch and reached out to grab it, the golden ball would twist away and dance across the stadium to somewhere else.

Jaebum was ahead of Mark now, chasing the Snitch down at deafening speeds. They were low and close to the ground, twisting around the field.

The Golden Snitch was only inches away now; Jaebum could see it just beyond his grasp. He reached out, and then the Snitch bursted upwards, out of reach once again. Jaebum didn't waste any time, angling his broom up and following the ball. He was still close, maybe he could reach it.

He reached out again, biting his lip and forcing his arm as far ahead of him as possible. He was almost there...

A sharp pain went through Jaebum's body and he felt himself being thrown off his broom and falling to the ground. He clutched his side as he fell. He was pretty sure he had broken ribs.

He never felt the hard ground, and when he opened his eyes, he realized Jackson had caught him. They floated to the ground and Jaebum rolled onto the grass, gasping in pain. Jackson kneeled next to him, looking over him desperately.

"Jaebum! I'm sorry, I couldn't get to the Bludger in time! Shit, are you okay?"

Jaebum shook his head, his face scrunching up in pain. He definitely had a broken rib or two.

"Move", the flying instructor commanded. Jackson moved out of the way and she felt Jaebum's side with light fingers. Jaebum yelped in pain when she pressed down on a certain spot and she nodded. "It's a broken rib. We need to get him to the hospital wing right away."

"Jaebum! Are you okay?!"

Jaebum's vision was blurred with pain, but he could still recognize the mop of brown hair on the boy that crouched down next to him. Mark looked over him with worry.

"We're taking him to the hospital wing", the flying instructor said. Mark nodded quickly and looked back down at Jaebum.

He leaned in close to Jaebum and the other felt his face burn, even if he was in indescribable pain. He could feel Mark's lips brushing against his ear, and he swallowed nervously.

"Here", Mark whispered. Jaebum was confused for a second before he felt the cold metal being pressed into his hand beyond anyone's sight. The Snitch. "Take it. Don't tell anyone."

Mark moved away before Jaebum could protest, standing up and moving next to his teammates. Jaebum's vision blurred even more, and he could only feel pain as his teammates moved him onto a stretcher.

Gryffindor was declared the winners of that day's match when the Golden Snitch rolled out of Jaebum's hand after he passed out.
