Unless she turned out to be horrible, then not so much.

So far so good though.

He could break? Okay then.

West went ahead and lined up.... and then boom. Perfect break. The three and the nine went into the pockets. Okay so he had a choice then. West examined the balls and went for stripes since the eleven ball was a nice and easy shot. He hit it in cleanly.

Oh she misunderstood him. "I give myself credit, its just that there's no guarantees. We won the championship last term, and we have plenty of good players in Slytherin. Who knows if someone better will come along?"

He couldn't imagine NOT playing though. That would suck.

The next ball he lined up was a little harder and West had to rebound the cue ball off the rails before it hit the fourteen ball and knocked that in. Nine, eleven, and fourteen down... four more to go. West tried for the fifteen since if he missed it'd put the cue ball in a difficult spot for Jezz. He missed and stepped back. She was up with solids, one of them had already been pocketed on the break too.

"Not really boring, just lonely."
She was never bored. That school almost had as many secrets as Hogwarts. She gave him a small smile, "I would really appreciate it. I think some of my friend graduated. I don't have many if that's the case."

Jezz watched his clean break and held her breath chanting in her head for him to pick stripes. With a quiet sigh of relief she watched as he pocketed two balls after the initial one on the break. Oh, he was really good. "If you can play Quidditch as good as you're playing pool at the moment I don't think you'll have a problem."

She stared at the solid balls each shot looking pretty tricky. She decided to aim for the six which was up against the rail all she needed to do was give it a good enough tap to sink it in an end pocket but the angle she needed to tap it at was seriously tricky. Taking a steady breath the made he move and watched at the cue ball rebounded off the rail and gave the ball in question a hard enough tap to move it...

...just not hard enough to sink it. One ball in and it was his turn again.
