"How about a figure 8 around the pitch weaving between the stand towers and students. We can even thread the center hoops, jumping from your broom while the broom goes through the hoop and you go over it... If you want a challenge."
"Don't worry, mate. You ain't got a chance." he said but his smile faded. He was getting serious now. there were a lot of people here and Jacob felt if he failed to Simon, he'd be a laughing stock. Nope... He wasn't going to lose at anything to the seventh year.
Jacob watched as the boy pointed out the path. He gave a small laugh.
"Alright." this was gonna be fun... he was going to wipe the floor with the gryffie captain.
With that Jacob decided that playing fair was NOT going to be a part of this, and with out even letting Simon know when to go, Jacob leaned forward and shot into the course.
