James Sirius Potter x Addison Zabini - it all started with Quidditch

Warning
A few bad words

"Quidditch tryout today!" James happily exclaims to his big group of friends.

"About that, the Slytherin team will have their tryouts, the same time as us, just wanted to warn you" his friend and quidditch captain, Paul Ambrose, tell him and James' excited smile fades.

"C'mon! They're so gonna try to sabotage us!" James and his other friend, Hugo Granger-Weasley, shouts in unison.

"Well, they're going to have their own tryouts to focus on. Plus I've hear the new captain is really strict about focusing on their own business and not sabotage Gryffindor and shit like that" Paul tells them.

"Yeah, so that he can do it later!" James says grumpily.

"She doesn't seem like that type. It's Addison Zabini, she's smarter than that" Paul says, and the two boys quickly shuts their mouths. After all, she's his ex.

When it's time for the tryouts the Slytherins are already there, making all the Gryffindors sigh. But they quickly start. Or they would, if not two sixth year boys and one sixth year girl walks up to them, form Slytherin.

"Wow, I thought we'd have competition this year..." the middle guy, a boy with black hair and blue eyes, rather tall, says and laughs with the other two.

"Well, we have beaten you every year, what makes you think we wouldn't this time?" Paul says, defensively. James can feel the anger bubble up inside of him, but the look on Paul's face makes him stay quiet.

"Cerelia, Elphias, Ozzy. Get your asses back here!" Addison, a girl with dark skin, black, long and wavy hair and crystal blue eyes shouts form the other side of the plan.

"C'mon, lil sis" Elphias and Cerelia says.

"Get back here now, or leave. You're not getting on the team because you're family. That you're family I couldn't care less about, what I do care about is that you are fucking up my tryouts, and that you're getting my team a bad reputation" she says coldly and the whole Gryffindor team, and people trying out for it just stands there gaping.

"Now, decide. Try out, or leave?" She says.

"C'mon, babe. Don't be so boring" Ozzy says, and Elphias and Cerelia laughs like crazy.

"That's it, out of here all of you. Now! Leave before I stop being nice" she shouts and if the guy get scared they aren't showing it.

"Don't day I didn't warn you, bitches" she says before cursing them with a bat-bogey-hex that'd make Ginny Potter proud.

"Now get out of here!" She screams in their faces and they all retreat.

"You'll have to excuse them" She says to the Paul before going back to her side of the field.

"Now. If I see you acting like those babies, you can forget getting on the team. To get on this team you need two things, talent and maturity!" She says shouting at the team.

"Remember, we're not here to play, we're here to win. I don't want you to try your hardest, I want you to do your hardest. I don't want you to be good, I want you to be mind blowing. Question before we start?" She says eyeing the whole team.

And if it wasn't because of the fact that James already had done his flying, he'd definitely not do well, because he couldn't look away from Addison for the rest of the tryouts.

"She was scary..." Hugo says.

"Just look at how non-scary she can be" Paul says and everyone in the team gives him a sceptical eye, even James.

"Hey, Addison!" Paul shouts at the girl who was just about to go but turns around and walks up to him.

She doesn't say anything, just raises a eyebrow, which the people on the team thinks encourages their theory.

"Thanks for before, when you told them off" he says, lightly but if you know him, it's easy to see that being around Addison brings back memories.

"It's cool, I'm the one who should apologise actually, can't believe I'm family with two of them, incredibly idiotic to disturb you. It wasn't too much trouble with them, right?" she says smiling at him and the team stands there gaping.

"Anyhow, see you later at the next game" she says before walking away.

"Potter, are you in love or are you just really liking her back?" Paul says, smiling at him.

"Sorry, but like... man..." is all he can say.

"Well, you should hurry up and get that girl, before someone else does" Hugo says as the two walk back to the castle.

"And what makes you think she would every say yes?" James says, thinking back at the girl as she made some people cry at those tryouts and didn't move a muscle.

"I've heard she has a hard time saying no to things, by Paul, when he was talking about her like crazy, you remember. Well, you can do it after the next quidditch game, it's Gryffindor vs Ravenclaw. She'll totally be there, she's always studying other teams when they play" Hugo explains and James builds up an idea in his head.

"Whoooo! We won!" The Gryffindor team shouts as they land their rooms on the ground after they're match that ended with 200-70.

"There she is man" Hugo says pointing at a certain girl in the crowd, leaving the pitch before everyone else.

"Hey, Addison?" He shouts and she turns her head, walking up to James with one eyebrow raised again.

"Do you... want to go to Hogsmeade... with me... this weekend?" He asks scratching his neck nervously.

"Sure, why not?" She says and laughs at his triumphantly face.

"Sorry I'm late!" Addison says, running down from the castle, where James is eating for her.

"No worries" he says and offers her his arm, witch she gladly takes.

Once they teach Hogsmeade, they go inside the three broomsticks, to warm themselves up. They both order butter beer.

"So, why where you late?" James asks, trying to build up a conversation.

"One of the beaters on the team hurt his ankle, and said he won't be able to play at tomorrow's match, so I had to patch him up, but now he's alright" she says and he smiles.

Right at that moment Madam Rosmerta comes up to them with a big smile and twi butter beers.

After a while if them both just sitting there, sipping on their drinks, small talking James decides to go big or go home.

He leans in and kisses her. And to his happiness she kisses him back.

After that the date goes much more smoothly. But even the best things must come to an end.

"Bye" James says, when they reach the Slytherin common room.

"Let's do it again sometime" she says and kisses his cheek before going inside the common room.
