... Maybe she shouldn't ask that. No. Just clink the glass and SMILE! "Thank YOU for saying you'd play!" she said, "Four players up against seven isn't easy but we did it. And this was your first time!" She jumped up and down along with Alyssa, squealing along. Heck, she didn't even CARE that she was a seventh year and Alyssa was... a second. No! That did not matter at all!
"
Hahaha...I guess I should have mentioned that Salud is just Spanish for Salute or another version of cheers or bottoms up. You must have been wondering why I was referring to Salads" Alyssa laughed when she saw Kita's puzzled face.

Alyssa tried to laugh her injury off. "
Oh, it's nothing, Kita. Don't worry about it. I'm just sore from the game, "she told her Captain. Alyssa didn't want anyone to think that she was a wuss. Yes, her knee was starting to throb more now,"
But I can still walk on it, so it's not broken. A little pain is not going to kill me."she told herself.

Wait... WHAT?! No praises for herself? Hmph, Alyssa, just HMPH! "Alyssa, you played brilliantly as well!" she said, nodding, "Merlin knows how many injuries you caused. And you didn't even need the bludger half the time!" Heck, SHE couldn't have been a better beater than Alyssa. No way!
Oh? Hug? She couldn't say no to that! Kita hugged her young friend back, squeezing her gently. "I'll put in a good word for you to Isobel," she said, "That way, you'll definitely be in the team next term!" Even if Kita wouldn't be there to see her.
... What a sad thought!
Alyssa hugged Kita back. "
Oh thank you for saying that, Kita. Honestly, you guys did all the hard work. I just tried to help when I could, and even if I did hit some players, believe me, it was pure luck," Alyssa laughed recalling some of the misaimed blusters that actually did hit a Raven player or the times she "accidentally" bumped into a couple of them pretty hard. She looked at Kita.. That was nice of her to put in a good word for her with Isobel. She knew that chances of her playing this term again was probably zero and looked forward to trying out next year. But she felt sad at the same time because she knew that Kita wouldn't be in the team come next term. She looked over at the Seventh year, and felt sad. She liked Kita. Kita was a great leader and an awesome Seeker. She hoped that for her sake the House Team would win the Cup. That would be a great gift for Kita.
