She plays chaser on her team and she brings a book to the quidditch match? And they say that the Slytherin House were Mystifying people.

"I do." Victoria answers slowly. "But not this one, nor the one before this." So basically, she hasn't played in a match yet, but she will soon.

As Gideon made it out to the quidditch pitch, he mused how it was a good thing that he was a fan of colder weather. And also glad he had bundled up with wintery coat and his scarf from Selina. Climbing up into the stands, he looked around as he tried to decide where to sit and spotting a familiar face made his way behind her. His hands slipping playfully in front of her eyes once he had reached the bench directly at her back.

Oh. Yay! Someone came to sit with him! "Carter." he said shaking the girls hand. "And I don't mind at all. Most of my friends are on the team..." So the seats around him were unoccupied.

"Supporting Slytherin?" he asked. The girl seemed like a Slytherin.

Carter smirked as he noticed Cassie. "Yeah. Seems like I underestimated the Badgers." he said with a little laugh.

He turned around to continue talking as she took the seat behind him. "Don't worry though... I've realized the error of my ways. I'm supporting a Hufflepuff win today."

And by that he meant he was supporting a Snake loss. Someone had to pay them back since he wouldn't get the chance to.

Vashti wasn't sure why bringing a book to match that hadn't even started yet was weird. There wasn't anything to watch, so why should she just stare at an empty pitch? Bringing something to do, like reading a book, while she waited seemed like the smart thing to do. But anyway.

She was on the Slytherin team but she hadn't played a single game? That was sad. "Why not?"

Sam walked around the stands looking for a good seat. He couldn't wait to watch the match, he didn't really care who won.. maybe Hufflepuff since Slytherin is ahead in points.. Maybe Slytherin since Hufflepuff beat Ravenclaw, did it really matter? Live quidditch was all that really mattered. He found a seat and sat down, waiting for the match to begin.

piano competion my teacher makes me go there 4x a week XD
 

Victoria should have been annoyed that the girl asked her. But instead, she sat down on the stand and stayed calm. There's nothing to be annoyed about. "My dog." Victoria managed to say. "I've been watching her night and day, walking her three times a day, making sure she doesn't get into any trouble." She replied sadly. Maybe there was a good reason why at Hogwarts, they prefer cats over dogs. "It's impossible to get anything done with the dog around, plus, we 5th years have the O.W.L.s to worry about."

Cassie chuckled. Worrisome for him maybe, but not for her. She never minded nicknames. They were mostly always given in good fun anyways.

"Lighten up Jon Jon,nicknames are fun and often times, signs of some sort of affection. You should embrace it." She bet he wouldn't mind if Kurumi called him that. *wink* *wink*

"I know you and Kurumi have been around the castle together. Merlin knows what you two have been up to."
She smirked at him as he turned to face her."It's quite fine. We like it when you lot do that. It's always a nasty shock when we prove you wrong."


Supporting HufflePuff...well she didn't mind but she was sure Marilyn would.

"Well thats good I suppose. I'm supporting my house but I really want Marilyn to do well, so I donno, it's a win win for me."

Selina was playing with the bottom of her scarf when suddenly the world went dark around her. She felt a pair of hands over her eyes and she smirked. There was an inkling in the pit of her stomach who was putting their hands over her eyes so she took the plunge and said, "Mr. Gert, didn't anyone tell you it is rude to take a lady by surprise?" If he could see her she had the biggest smirk on her face. Of course, by the tone of her voice, it was not that hard to assume that she was smirking.

Treyen was playing? Really? Seriously?

WHY?

This made absolutely no sense.

BUT Ellie couldn't allow herself to be distracted by him. No. If he was playing, then....he was playing. Whatever. It wasn't like he's shushed her for even speaking of Quidditch before. But...yeah....whatever. Whatever.

Only now, Ellie was automatically supporting Hufflepuff. Not that that changed anything. Just...maybe she cared a little about the outcome now. Solely because Treyen was now playing. And, lookit, he was Keeper. Good, because he liked Keeper.

And back to business, yeah? No staring at the Hufflepuff Keeper?

Ellie tore her eyes from the Quidditch robe-cladded Prefect to watch the Chasers instead. They were most important at the moment.

Gideon nearly chuckled at Selina's reaction but stayed quiet for a little longer so she couldn't identify him by his laugh...if she could. "Aye...thats why I don't surprise ladies," he remarked with a smirk of his own as he slipped his hands from her eyes. His expression softing to a teasing smile as he climbed over the last seat to be beside her.

He was cut off from saying anything more as the stands errupted at the flying entrance of the two competing teams. Gideon could tell the game was starting even before Vindictus spoke and before long the first score was made. "Guess Slytherin is feeling lucky again," he mused.

Carter chuckled. Poor Hufflepuffs... they probably got underestimated all the time.

Oh well...

"Well... I'm supporting Marilyn as well. But you know her. She'll do brilliant no matter what." He just didn't want them to win because he was still a bit upset that the Snakes beat the Lions.

And now the game was starting.

O_O Were Caroline and Marilyn actually getting along up there?

Selina tapped him lightly in the chest at his comment and fanned mad expression on her face when he joked with her. Once he saw down beside her she grabbed a front of his sweater and pulled him close to her face so she could make her point. He had to learn that if he was going to poke fun at her obviously grace there were going to be consequences. "You better watch what you say Gert. Some ladies, such as myself, might take offense to your statement." She kissed his cheek before turning back to the game that he had commented on starting and acting as if nothing happened she replied, "You're right. I suppose they do feel pretty lucky, eh?"

Lexi was ELATED, the best mood she had EVER been in her life! She could have been floating on air for all she knew as she made her way up the stands to watch the Slytherin/ Hugglepuff match. Hehehehe.

Spotting her little buddy Tom she gave him a HUGE wave and a smile, but not wanting to start any unnecessary mess she kept on walking. Walking and SMILING. Heh. Finding a cozy place she plopped down, propped her feet up on the bench in front of her, and then propped her chin in her hands and watched the match.... MOONEY EYED AND ahhhhhhhhh. Teehee.

One: Ellie was WICKED jealous of Treyen. Like...seriously? The boy hadn't practiced in Merlin-knows-how-long and he was still doing fantastic. Why couldn't SHE be like that, huh? Why did she have to practice SO much and still only be half as good as she needed to be?

It must be the blood. Treyen has Pro-Quidditch blood. While Ellie has...Amateur-Quidditch blood. Her family clearly didn't want her to be any good in this sport. Why did they destine her for disaster? Why couldn't they have gone Pro?

Two: She had no hope. LOOK at those Seekers. IF...IF they won against Gryffindor, they'd lose the next match. There was no way she could beat out either Evelyn or Kita. And what was the difference between third and fourth place, really?

This was a terrible idea. Coming out here. She only felt WORSE about herself.

Also, she kept watching Treyen, which didn't help any.

As she grabbed his sweater and pulled him close, Gideon couldn't help but raise an amused eyebrow as they stared into each others eyes. Green orbs under curly hair to light blue under auburn locks. He listened to her words, his expression changing to a fained innoscent look. "I stand warned Skylar," he commented, smiling at the kiss on his cheek.

"Aye..." he stated turning back to the came as the first snitch was grabbed...by the Slytherin head girl. Slytherin was on a role.

Cassie frowned as she watched the match.

"COME ON GUYS!!!!! Focus!!!!!"

Damn it. The game was young yet but it wasn't going in the Puffer's favour yet and Cassie was never good at losing, nor was she good at keeping her cool at live games.

She wanted to win this game..WIN!.

She finally sat down again with a huff, but managed to calm down enough to talk to Carter.

"yeah Marilyn does rock doesn't she?" She smirked. "You're a lucky boy Carter."

Cassie turned to look at Thomas with a proud mama look on her face. He had been studying? She knew of his little problem and the fact that Thomas was taking initiative and studying was enough to bring tears to her eyes. She grabbed his shoulders and pulled him into a tight snuggle. She would have to write to Freddie and tell him how much Thomas had grown up and how good he was being. Studying? Wow... She finally released him and beamed at him again.

She followed his gaze up to the sky and nodded."You're right. You probably won't, but i'll be working in Milan this summer, you should come spend a week and get some sun." She would love to have him and Tom would be great company while she worked for her dad. Of course he would probably have to ask his mum first. She smiled at him as he took the gloves. "You're welcome Love."

She turned back to the game as Thomas spoke to Jonathon. Good, Tom was so lovely he just needed to meet more people and branch out some.

Hmm..she looked back to him as he whispered something to her.
"Oh sure, right after the game I'll show you how it's done. it's really pretty easy too."

'NO!' Salima shouted as she rested her head in her hands.

Curse. Sierra. Greingoth.

As if Ellie didn't already have enough reason to intensely dislike the young Slytherin.... Now Treyen was off his game.

Yeah, the Ravenclaw wasn't even attempting to take notes anymore. The game had gotten too intense. Thanks to Sierra, mainly, since Ellie was much more concerned with Treyen and the blow to the stomach he received from the Slytherin Beater than anything else.

She brought her feet onto the bench in front of her and hugged her legs. Her usual nervous habit of chewing her lip was also obvious. She really didn't want the Snakes to win now.

Simon saw Professor Hadley and decided to have some fun, sneaking up behind her he tapped her shoulders and then shouted. "GO HUFFLEPUFF." Simon smiled before adding. "Good day Professor."

Feeling a tap on her shoulders, Hadley turned around and smiled at sight of one of her badgers. Only a brief smile though, because somewhere deep inside, she knew he should be out there playing, not sitting in the stands.

"Good day," but before she could add anything more, the sight of a figure spiraling in yellow directly toward her was caught out her peripheral vision. Reaching her hand to grasp her wand, she hoped she wouldn't need to use impediamenta or something, but of course, would... if needed.

Oooh... Look! Her prefect blocked a shot!
