Bella probably would have done it, or maybe Maya, but as they were in Slytherin, he hadn't thought to plan that far in advance to ask them. Also they might have showed bias toward him, since he wasn't sure they knew Mamie much, and that would have defeated the whole purpose of the ref.

He shook his head. "No, i don't think ... we shouldn't bother him on the weekend. I guess we don't need one." It was just a fleeting thought he'd had on the walk from the towers and he probably shouldn't have vocalized it. "So uh... just to the end of the training area and back?"
No referee brought along, and he didn't want to ask Mr. Kazmi either? Margaret thought maybe Apollo hadn't really wanted a ref. Maybe he just wanted to distract her. Get her thinking about something else before the race. Probably not, she didn't think he was that manipulative. She shrugged. "Okay, no ref. Like last time."

She grinned brightly. "Yes, one lap? It'll be like a sprint!" But flying. Instead of swimming or running. She was definitely better at short distances than long ones. Her starts and stops had gotten a lot better since she'd started her keeper training. Agility, it was called. She mounted her broom. "Do you want to call the start?"
