Never Is Our Always

First Quidditch Game Of The Season!

(Minnie pov) (Quidditch day)

I walked into the hall for breakfast, I was going down towards the front, but then I was stopped my Marcus.

"Hey darl," he sneered, I just scrunch my face up, "gonna cheer for me today?" I felt his hand on my back and I was scooted towards him.

I just point to my scarf, he snorts a small chuckle at me, "so?"

"So it means leave her alone, Flint," Oliver growled as he whisked me away with him by his side, under his arm.

Oliver sat me down at the table and then the other team mates sat down, "what was that about?" He said to me sternly, Oliver hated the Slytherin team and house with a fiery passion.

I gave Oliver a look of confusion, "fancy a Slytherin do you?" I shake my head at Oliver, I was more confused at what happened than he was.

I turn to see Marcus smirking as he then walks to his own table and sat down with his team.

"He's being a prat," I heard Angelina say as I turn back around and look at her. "He always does this to try and get under her skin."

"Good luck today, Potter." I slowly look over to see Snape.

"Then again, now that you've proven yourself against a troll, a little game of Quidditch should be easy work for you... even if it is against Slytherin."

He walks away and heads to the teachers tables for his own breakfast.

"Git." The team all said as Snape walked away.

"Mornin' Alice," the twins say, I look at them before waving as I stole a slice of plain toast from the plate in front of me.

"Welcome to Quidditch! I'm your commentator, Lee Jordan! The Quidditch pitch has three goals at each end. The Chasers throw the Quaffle and try to put it through the hoops to score.

Watch out for the Bludgers! These are charmed balls that can knock you off your broomstick! Two Beaters on each team try to keep them away.

Remember, when the Snitch appears, it releases Speed Rings that will help the Seeker fly faster."

Lee said to the crowd as they were cheering for their houses.

"Today's game Slytherin versus Gryffindor!"

The players take their positions in the air in a circle.

"The players take their positions as Madam Hooch steps out onto the field to begin the game."

She kicks the trunk, and the bludgers zoom out.

"The bludgers are up... followed by the Golden Snitch. Remember, the snitch is worth One Hundred and Fifty points. The seeker who catches the Snitch ends the game."

The snitch zooms around each Seeker's head, then disappears. Hooch grabs the Quaffle.

"The Quaffle is released... and the game begins!"

Gryffindor takes possession of the ball by the Gryffindor chaser, Angelina Johnson.

"And the quaffle is taken immediately by Angelina Johnson of Gryffindor- what an excellent chaser that girl is, and rather attractive too-" I facepalm at my cousin.
