Oliver scowled at the girl standing before him, before abruptly turning to Charlie and complaining loudly 'But she's a second year!'
Seventh year Charlie Weasley stared down at him. 'Wood, she clearly outflew Patrick. I know he's your best mate and I know he's a third year, and I also know,' Charlie raised his voice a fraction as he saw Oliver's mouth open to argue 'that he was on the team last year. But this one's a better Chaser, and that's,' he raised his voice louder still as Oliver's face continued to darken 'final'.
Charlie turned to the girl in front them who was staring up at the seventh year and the fourth year with obvious apprehension.
'Welcome to the team…Alicia, was it?' Charlie smiled.
The girl nodded 'A-Alicia Spinnet' she faltered as she watched the boy called Oliver deepen his scowl. Charlie ignored him.
'So, who taught you to play?' he asked kindly, making as stab at alleiviating her unease.
Alicia brightened slightly. 'My cousins' she gave a tentative smile 'They're Quidditch nuts. The older one, Jeremy, wants to play Keeper for England, he-'
'I'm going to play Keeper for England' Oliver interrupted loudly. Charlie rounded on him.
'For heaven's sake, Wood! How old are you? Last I checked, you were 14 so stop acting 10 years younger!'
Oliver fell silent, turned on his heel and stalked away, but not before tossing both Charlie and Alicia contemptuous glances.
'Don't pay any attention to him, Spinnet' Charlie glared after Oliver's retreating back. 'Little diva loves getting his own way'
Alicia, who was somewhat surprised when addressed by her first name for the first time in her twelve years, swallowed and nodded, already regretting signing up for the trials.
(A/N) Hi. I'd appreciate a review if anyone has any thoughts, any at ALL, on the story, the pairing, what direction I should take, anything! Thanking you in advance
