"Hold the broom between your legs, not too tight and not too loose!" Adorned in her full match regalia Ginny stood full of hubris facing you , her blazing eyes stared deeply in your eyes as her hands wrapped tightly around the shaft of the broom. "I've already ran you through the rest of the equipment... remember... you are going to try and catch this slick little bastard" she clutched the golden snitch stringently between her index finger and her thumb "and I'm going to try my damn hardest to ram you off your broom." Her wide, joyful smile at the completion of that threat was slightly concerning, you had strong thoughts that surely Ginny would not do something that would put you in danger.

Without a word of warning Ginny winded her shoulder back and slung her arm forward, releasing the winged orb from her hands and sending it flying towards your face. It reached mere centimetres from your feet before flinging itself upwards and disappearing into the open blue sky. "Well come on... it isn't going to catch itself! I know you're new to Hogwarts but you don't tend to play quidditch with your feet on the floor!" You tilted the broom upwards and held it exactly as Ginny had told you, firm hands one just above the other, the shaft tucked between your thighs and your feet resting on the back as the broom slowly hovered from the gravel and into the air.

Ginny was nothing more than a hurtling comet with nothing but the snitch in her sights as she darted from side to side in chase. It was as if you didn't even have to try, before you could try to move you were already flying through the air, the crisp Scottish air blasted through your hair and against the scarce cotton clouds the snitch became visible.

"See, it isn't that bad!" Ginny shouted through the blistering winds as you pulled up beside her. "By the way, I'm sorry!" She swung to the side before slamming her small frame into your side and sending you spinning over above the goal hoops.

You gripped the smooth wood harder and pulled up harshly until the broom was back in your control, in the not so far distance Ginny laughed heartily and made no effort to help as she lined you up again in her sights.

"What?!" She shouted. "It isn't like they're going to go easy on you so why should I?"
