"Jeez Caddell, do you always wear that much perfume?" Oliver asked, smirking. I turned around to glare at him. "Was it not your brilliant idea to avoid harassing each other outside of the pitch?"

For most of their time at Hogwarts, winning and out-competing one another was all the Gryffindor and Slytherin captains thought about.
