--7th Year--
Simon took one last look at the Gryffindor locker room, taking in every inch. His eyes passing over the place in front where all the pictures of past players were hung, the captain paused. He couldn’t help thinking on how many past captains…past players even…had gone on to play professionally.
Even his rival Jacob was leaving school early for the game.
But that wasn’t him…his path lay elsewhere. He was a scholar first and THEN a quidditch player.
Finally spotting where his own picture had been added, a smile graced his face at the memories. It was enough for him.
