Kurumi turned the color of a strawberry again. She really needed to learn how to say these Quaddich...Quiddish...Quidditch! terms correctly. She nervously took another sip of her hot cocoa.

"Really? What made you decide to stop?" Kurumi asked perhaps a little too bluntly. "Do Chasers...chase things?" She hadn't really gotten to the position part of Quidditch Through the Ages. She was still reading about this history of it, but had to put the book down when she read that they used to use a real bird. "S-S-Sorry," Kurumi whispered. "I really don't know anything about...QU-ID-DI-T-CH." She had said it right this time, yes?

YES QUIDDITCH!!!

Ellie was pretty super sure she'd never been more excited in her life. Oh what an absence of Quidditch can do to you.

She'd practically run up to the stands and took a spot in the front row. She adjusted her Hufflepuff scarf so it was more comfy and sat with her hot chocolate in her hands. The hot chocolate she'd learned to bring last term during the Tourny. It was waaarrmm.

She tapped her feet anxiously waiting for the game to start. START.

Isabelle had not seen a Quidditch match in a very long time. She'd been too busy to be able to go to one. But now, of course, she could see a whole tournament right on her doorstep. Starting first with her old house against the snakes.

Wrapping her cloak around her for more warmth, Issy shuffled along the row to find an empty seat on one of the many benches in the stand. Blowing on her hands, she rubbed them together and looked around. Plenty of kids, but was she....she was! The first professor to arrive. Lovely. Blinking several times, she turned her attention to the pitch, awaiting the arrival of the teams.

Caroline was a bit suprised when a gryffindor walked over to her. His called her snake lady. She'd never been called that before. She laughed. "I came early for a good seat. That why I'm here, I dont know about these all girls" She said simply. She watched as he continued to play with him scarf. "So you're a gryffindor, I see"She turned around she saw a group of two slytherins and a hufflepuff. She moved over because she was going to ask the boy to sit with her. "wanna here?" She asked with a smile. "My name is Caroline" she smiled again.

The first game of Quidditch she had ever seen at Hogwarts, and Alex was gonna play! Katelynn felt really exited, and couldn't wait to sheer those Snakes on!
There weren't as many people as Katelynn had imagined, yet, but they were almost all much older then her. She felt really small standing there amongst all those students!

Arriving at the Stands, Patroclus couldn't help but breathe in the atmosphere.

The tension, the excitement, the sensation; It was all down to Qudditch.

It was what had dragged all the school down from the castle, into the cold winter weather, but boy was it worth it.


Patroclus and dressed for the cold, but perhaps in a bit more of a graish style than usual. Beneath a large over sized fur coat, Patroclus was in bright vibrant colours, it may have been winter, but it was no reason to be dull. Wearing a cool vintage graphic sweater over a pair of grey trousers, finished off with bright blue sneakers, Patroclus was clearly visable from the sky.

Nice way to sound out to the competition.


But he was not here to compete, he was here to watch. It was Evelyn's first match ever! And it was Jacob's first match as Captain......it was going to be hard to watch!!

"Go Evelyn!" he cried, then cried again "Go Jacob!"

He want here for Slytherin or for Ravenclaw, he was here for his friends.

Hugo turned his head and saw his favourite proffie there. He waved at her. "Hey professor Magnus, are you excited for the game?" he asked with a smile. He was excited alright. His first Quidditch match. Awesome.

This was the first Quidditch match of the season, so Dallin was making himself go to it. He figured that if he tried out for the team next year, he should start to watch some of his opponents and housemates play. It was smart, right?

So, he was bundled up in a few layers of clothing as he arrived at the stands. He looked around briefly to see if he recognized anyone, but quickly gave up and sat down in the middle of the stands somewhere. He sat down, rubbing his hands together to keep them warm.

Wearing her favorite blue sweater and her Ravenclaw scarf, Rowan made her way to the stands excitedly. This was the first match she had been to. She was determined to figure out the rules of this game. She found a seat near enough to the front but not too close. Hopefully she would find someone she knew who could explain to her what was going on in the game.

Professor Hadley had never really been a fan of quidditch; flying was just not her thing and it was generally a waste of precious study time. But the kids liked it and as she heard some of her best students were playing in today's match, the Arithmancy professor trudged down to the pitch, bundled in a warm cloak, gloves and hat. Hopefully she wouldn't be the only professor out there besides Vindictus.

Relief spread through her as she noted the familiar face of the ever-lovely Professor Magnus, or Issy. Making her way through the stands that were already filling up, Fina took one of the spots next to her colleague, who she hoped had some understanding of what was happening. "Hey," she breathed, smiling at the woman.

Chandler was a little excited, Quidditch was certainly not his thing so he didn't see why he should be excited but he was here, here to cheer on Kaia of course. To be honest, he wouldn't be here if she wasn't playing, he didn't like the sport that much and there was INJURIES. He hated injuries and he was clueless as to why anyone would like to see people on brooms flying around and throwing balls into hoops...and then possibly getting injured. But it was a sport and many people liked sports no matter how much they could make you get hurt.

He rolled his eyes, glancing briefly at all the people who were already in the stands. Chandler was expecting Harley to come soon holding up some banner which would say 'Go Kai!' or similar to that, Cassie was going to come eventually as well and when he found a seat he would save them both one. If there WERE going to be any extra seats, he knew at Quidditch games it was packed considering the amount of people who loved the game.

Shiiiverrr.

Why DID he even come out here? Oh yeah, to support Kai, it was worth it though, he'd freeze to see her play and that was what was going to happen. Without wasting any more time Chandler scanned around for any empty seats to sit in and found Aimée with plenty of seats around her. Rubbing his hands, the boy made his way towards her and took a seat next to her. "Bonjour, Aimée." He said, smiling at her.

This was so super exciting.

She'd like never been to a quidditch game before because she sucked, and all that stuff. Buuuut KAI was playing in this oneee, and Kai was super cool, cool enough to have a banner with her name and picture on. Lets just hope she'd be too busy to notice the picture because she'd told her not to put a picture on. Harley skipped down to the stands, holding her banner in her arms, trying to avoid walking into people.

She didn't want her banner to wrip. That'd be bad.

She looked around, looking for someone she knew to stand with. She didn't wanna sit cus then like she wouldnt be able to see, unless everyone else sat then she'd just look odd sitting. She stood for a moment before deciding to go stand by herself, she lifted her banner in the air and began to wave it around before deciding to shout Kai's name. Supportive much ? Methinks so. "KAI! KAI! KAI! KAI!"

Arabella-Marie was so excited for the game she wanted it to start soon and things couldnt go any better because she really wanted slytherin to win but boy it was cold out here today

Lexi sipped her cocoa and watched Kurumi. "Oh I didn't mean to embarass you or anything... Sorry," she said with a grimace. GAH! She made the girl feel... something by correcting her. She really needed to work on her blunt nature. "Chasers handle the quaffle. They attempt to throw it throw those hoops and avoid being hit by bludgers. Beaters have on job. That is to hit the bludgers and attempt to take out the chasers," she said pointing out the hoops on both ends of the pitch.

"Oh it's fine honey, don't apologize. A lot of people don't know anything about quidditch until they come here," Lexi said as she patted the little lion on the shoulder.

Rowan noticed a Gryffindor girl sit nearby. She looked to be about the same age so she decided to go introduce herself. "May I sit here?" she asked the girl.

Arabella-Marie smiled at the girl and said "Sure go ahead" Arabella-Marie knew it was a good chance for her to make a new friend and enjoy the game

The Gryffindor boy kept smirking as the blonde girl laughed at his words. He was used to girls laughing at his remarks and jokes but he also thought that it was not easy to make Slytherins laugh. Actually nothing was so easy with Slytherin which was a fine characteristic of them as he considered it though he knew most of them would call him a Gryffindork, of course, except one particular she-snake. The boy had no idea of what this girl would do.


''That's quite reasonable'' he commented on her coming there early for a good seat. And right after she answered his question, it looked like he needed not to move since he had figured that the place was not reserved for girls as his dark brown eyes spotted some boys climbing up there. ''I thought you'd have an idea about them'' for they were her housemates, were not they? ''But it does not matter. Honestly. Just forget about it''

And slightly smiling at the girl, the sixteen-year-old Gryffindor was about to leave to where he saw his housemate Prefect Patroclus was seated when the Slytherin girl spoke again making him halt and look back at her. Ah! The snake lady had just stated that he was a Gryffindor. ''Well...the bravest one you can meet in the whole school'' he said with his usual overly confident attitude. And perhaps the smartest one but he was not going to voice it since he was not sure of it. Hehehehehhe.

When she invited him to sit with her, at first a hesitant expression appeared on his rather handsome face yet it vanished the very next moment so returning the girl's smile he sat on the seat she had left for him. ''So, Caroline'' the Gryffindor boy repeated right after the blonde revealed her name. ''What an interesting coincidence! The name of the daughter of our neighbour is Caroline, too. She is an old friend of mine and i can only see her in the summer break for obvious reasons'' actually for an exact period of time it was a little bit more than being friends. Ehem. Not anymore though, again for obvious reasons. ''She is a muggle, though. Just like my dad.'' the boy was aware that he spoke a lot but he possibly couldn't care less. ''Anyway...and my name is Joshua. It's nice to meet you''

"Thanks," she replied. "I'm Rowan, second year Ravenclaw."

" Well, the beater hits this thing called the bludger" Rex told Conan. " They are on defense and they take points away from the other team" Rex said to Conan. " The keeper guards the hoops, he or she can score and alsodefend points, the chaser hits the rhing called the Quaffle , they do scoring of the points and the most important peson on the team is the Seeker, thery grab things called snitches, the first team to grab three snitvhed no matter what the score is at the time, wins" Rex explained to Conan." Yes, everyone is on brooms" Rex smiled. " Fo you understand more about Quiditch now?" Rex asked Conan.

" hi hugo" Rex called out. " I know you ar for Slytherin because of Fee and Alex" Rex told Hugo. " I like them but my fiancee Rene is one of the beaters for HufflePuff plus I better root for her house or she just might get mad at me" Rex explained to Hugo. " Never want a girlfriend of fiancee mad at you, they can make life miserable" Rex laughed.


" Rowan, how are you?" Rex asked her. "So are you rooting for HufflePuff or Slytherin?" Rex asked Rowan. " Rene is playing beater for HufflePuff" Rex told Rowan. " I bet you are very good at Quidditch" Rex said to Rowan.

Arabella-Marie smiled at Rowan and said "Nice to meet you Rowan, I am Arabella and i am also a second year, who are you cheering on to win the game"

"Hi Rex! I guess if Rene is playing I will cheer for Hufflepuff." Rowan giggled at the thought of playing. "No, Rex. I don't even know how to play. I have enough trouble with simple flying."

"Nice to meet you Arabella. This is my friend Rex." she said as way of introductions. "It looks like I am rooting for Hufflepuff. Rex's fiancee Rene is playing as a beater."

Arabella-Marie smiled and said "Oh well i am rooting for slytherin cause some of my close friends in slytherin are on the team" Arabella-Marie smiled at Rex

" Well, I appreciate you rooting for rene and HufflePuff" Rex told Rowan. "Did you overhear my explanation of Quidditch to Conan?" Rex asked Rowan. " You can fly, you just have to have faith in yourself" Rex said to Rowan." Unfortunately, the next game, you and I will have to root against each other as it will be RavenClaw against Gryffindor" Rex explained to Rowan.

"My sister, Jamie, is a Slytherin but she isn't playing. I'm afraid that I really haven't met any other Slytherins, at least not to talk too." Rowan pulled her scarf a little closer to keep the cold out. "Are you a big Quidditch fan?" she asked. "You must be to sit out here in this cold."

" hi Arabella" Rex smiled back. Sorry, we are rooting against each other in this match" Rex laughed. " I do have lots of Slytherin friends but if I do not root for Rene, I will be in back trouble" Rex told Arabella."Can't have me in trouble with her, right?" Rex asked Arabella.
