Snape's Daughter {Draco Malfoy~Ron Weasley}

chapter 10: quidditch

"This is the team!" Emily said while walking Mia onto the pitch, "this is Hannah Slughorn and Peregine derrick, they are our beeters," Hannah gave Mia a friendly smile and wave whereas Peregine just scowled. "These are our chasers Elizabeth Diggory, Adrian Puency and Marcus Flint," the three gave Mia a polite nod not taking much notice of her since they desperately wanted to start practice. "I'm the keeper and captain and that is Draco malfoy our seeker," Draco smirked at Mia who in return felt blush creeping up her neck as she looked away and back at Emily who didn't seem to notice the interaction. "Between me and you," Emily whispered so only Mia could hear, "malfoy is a pretty shit seeker he is only on the team because his dad payed for him to be seeker, and only seeker, if he was a chaser we might of stood a chance with a terrible chaser since Adrian and Elizabeth have great plays and Marcus could of stayed as our half decent seeker but his father wants all the glory so now we have to try and win when the other team are almost 100% going to catch the snitch." Emily said with annoyance filling every word. "Anyway you go sit and watch in the stands and I'll make sure Hannah doesn't let peregrine send any bludgers your way!" Emily said with a simile as she turned to address her team.

Mia eagerly sat in the stands waiting for the slytherin team to start practice. God she loved quidditch. Sure playing the sport isn't her thing but watching it was so fun, you could have all the same drama and action while staying warm and sinning for your house and you didn't get exhausted and sweaty! "Hello stranger," a familiar voice said as they sat down beside Mia. "Hello Cedric," Mia chirped, "everything okay?" Mia questioned as Cedric wore an unreadable expression, "yeah just not so happy about the you and Tazzy situation... but let's not think about that i'm here to see how slytherin are shaping up they have won the quidditch cup 6 years in a row now so I have to get some new tactics since my sister isn't giving anything away," he gestured at Elizabeth she effortlessly passed the quaffle to Adrian who the scored. "So yeah, what are you doing here?" Mia gave it a second before answering Cedric's question. "Well Tazzy emotionally destroyed me," Cedric gave Mia an apologetic look before she continued "So Emily the captain invited me to watch them practice," Mia finished with a semi forced smile. The pair fell silent as they trained their eye on the quidditch team, or in Mia's case Draco malfoy. God he was rubbish at quidditch and even worse with a sling on his arm that he refused to take off (even though Mia knew his arm would have been fully healed but Malfoy is the definition of a drama queen). "For Salazar's sake malfoy!" Cried Marcus who then quickly turned around and grabbed the snitch,"it's not that bloody difficult to catch the snitch!" He huffed, "my grandma could do better than you!" Adrian shouted, "and she is bloody dead!" Adrian amended. Malfoy scowled at the two chasers, witch make them howl with laughter at the audacity of Draco. "Draco, how about you sit this practice out, your arm is clearly too bad to play," Emily suggested as Malfoy made his way off the pitch. "Let's hope his toddler tantrums have stopped by then as well or ill permanently put him in hospital so flint hear can go back to seeker," Elizabeth said under her breath witch lucky Emily didn't hear but Marcus and Adrian did witch sent them both into fits of laughter.

"Any new tactics then Ced?" Mia asked as Cedric stared at the slytherin team, "well there keeper is strong, quite a similar playing style to wood actually," he added, "but they have scored more goals on their left side so that is obviously he weaker side, peregrine has a slight temper and when he gets annoyed his hits on the bludgers become more labored so i'll see if Tazzy and Anthony can get into his head and-"

"You really are taking being captain seriously aren't you?" Mia questioned as Cedric bashfully looked down, "I guess you could say so," he chuckled, "I just don't want to let the team down, that's all," he honestly said. "And you wont you saw how Draco played just catch the snitch early and it will be an easy win," Mia said optimistically. Cedric smiled which then turned into a smirk,"you have been paying close attention to Malfoy have you?" Cedric said mischievously raising his eyebrow, "what no, not like that I- well-" Cedric laughed at Mia becoming so flustered at his question, "shut up." Mia scoffed as she looked back at the slytherin team, "I didn't say a word Snape, you brought that one on yourself..." Mia gave Cedric a death glare which immediately shut him up as they then turned their attention back to the pitch.
