Of course the first place he went to was the FOOOOD. Was Paige behind him? PAIGE HELLO! He didn't think he had LEFT HER BEHIND OH DEAR.

Crap.

CRAP CRAP.

"Hey--Hi--have you seen a young woman with this adorable child face--her name is Paige--she has REALLY CURLY HAIR--" he was panicking. Paige was like, sixteen now? He still felt like HE HAD LOST HER. HE was also shaking this girl's shoulders [Mel]. Whoops.

WAIT.

"ARE YOU ON THE NORWEGIAN TEAM?"


What was happening? Mel had simply been sitting there, minding her own business, when all of a sudden a strange boy was right next to her and shaking her. Did they not teach any manners in this country? Mel's hands instinctively clenched into fists, not that she would have been able to cause much harm anyway. It was mostly her stranger danger senses going off. Luckily though she was able to hear what he was saying before she decided to punch him or something like that.

Young woman with curly hair? There were several people around who could fit that description. It was pretty vague, so he best be more specific if he was actually looking for someone. Mel shook her head and looked pointedly at where his hands were still on her arms from when he had been shaking her just moments before. She was rethinking the idea that maybe she would have to punch him or something when he abruptly changed the subject, very loudly.

"Um, yes," she said, nodding her head. Was that what this was? Some sort of sabotage? He didn't sound particularly Irish, but that didn't mean he couldn't be working for them.


SPOILER!!: Paige

...anything to keep her from hiding her face while politely pretending to enjoy watching the match. At least she did not know anyone personally riding a broom, not that a sensitive soul like herself still would not be worried sick over players' well being.

"Cassius!" she called with a shy wave as she eventually made her way over. "Hi, sorry, I...um...healers..." She offered him an apologetic smile accompanied by the usual blush while instinctively reaching up to tuck some of her curls behind her ears but...right...those were gone now.

Still not used to the short hair.

"Oh...um...hello," she smiled to the girl offering her hand for a handshake. "Paige Skeeter."

Friend of Cassius'?


Not long after the boy had shown up at her table there was another new arrival. This one a girl, and much calmer. Mel, for one, was glad she was not a shaker. Was this the girl the boy had been looking for? Her hair was short, not even long enough to be curly, but she introduced herself as Paige so it must be the same girl. Melanie gave her a polite smile.

"Hello Paige," she said, shaking the offered hand. "My name's Melanie. I play chaser for Norway." Was she around to hear that part?


SPOILER!!: Bella

She'd only been playing for the league for two years now and honestly this past year has felt like the best and she was truly going to miss each of them. Jalo was the only one who might go pro with her, but the others had another year or two at this level. Bella also knew that this game was one of best shots to be seen; sure she could be scouted at school, but there was so much more press here then at school.

Even though she knew she SHOULD eat something, honestly, Bella found her stomach turning at the thought of consuming even the smallest amount of food. So she mainly wondered around the concessions until she spotted one of teammates - and fellow chasers - sitting at a table with two others she didn't recognize. "Mel!" she called and waved at the younger girl. "How can you possibly eat so much before the game?" She felt like she was going to throw up; which was a bizarre sensation because usually the seventeen year old had the appetite of a teenage boy, but not today. So much pressure today. Her parents and brother were around someplace too.

Turning to the other two at the table with them, Bella grinned in a friendly smile at the pair. "Hi there, I'm Isabella, Norwegian Chaser, so you two best be supporting Norway." You know, cause they were sitting with two of the chasers.


What with the strangers and everything, Mel was overjoyed to see a familiar face heading toward her table. (Not that meeting new people couldn't be fun, but after being bombarded and shaken she was feeling a bit overwhelmed at the moment).

"Bella!" She called with a smile toward her teammate. She reached out her hand and was glad to see the older girl making her way over to join them. Bella's question caused Mel to look down at her plate ad shrug. "I was hungry." She knew that a lot of people couldn't eat too soon before a game, but she had never had that problem. When she was hungry she was hungry.
