Your POV:
It had been a full week since tryouts and Flint still hadn't announced the team. I was starting to get really impatient. Adrian kept telling me not to worry about it, that I was good and I would make it. But I wasn't so sure. What if Flint thought I was some sort of house traitor or something for hanging with the Gryffindors and wouldn't let me on the team? He seemed like the kind of person who might. Plus, I learned that the boy I threatened for messing with Hermione was Draco Malfoy. And that really didn't help my chances. Draco was the seeker, so there was no doubt he probably went to Flint right away and told him not to put me on the team.
Flint called everyone who tried out for the team to the pitch on Friday after classes. I walked there with Adrian. He didn't really need to show up, he had been on the team last year so he'd surely be on it again, but I was glad that he was there with me. We were all standing there waiting for Flint until he showed up five minutes later with a piece of parchment in hand. He started calling off names and positions. He called Adrian's name just after his own. Then Malfoy's. More peoples' names got called. But not mine. I knew it. When he was done calling names I looked at Adrian.
"Hey man what the hell?" He questioned Flint.
"Problem, Pucey?" He answered.
"Yeah, problem." Adrian said, "We all saw Y/n try out. You know she should be on that list."
"Sorry Adrian. List is final. No exceptions." He smirked.
I stared him down. What a jerk. It was probably all Malfoy's fault too. If he wasn't such a jerk I wouldn't have threatened him like I did. I'm not even usually one for violence or harsh words but he pissed me off the way he talked to Hermione like she was some troll. Being a Slytherin isn't some excuse to be a terrible person. Same goes for Flint. Why did he think it was okay to discriminate against me because I was different than him? None of it was fair. I knew and they knew I was more than good enough to be on that team.
"Well then." I looked at Flint, "Have fun losing." I stormed off before he could respond.
