Quidditch try-outs went rather well- if I do say so myself.

I became the only 1st year on the Slytherin team. It was great, riding on my new broom. And I ended up with the position of Seeker.

"You didn't tell me you're dad was a Seeker too!" Goyle asked one day, when we looked into the trophy case, and my dad's name was on one of them.

"He was…he practiced with me all the time when we were younger. My mum was Seeker for her house in her final year too. I guess it's hereditary." I played it off as if it meant nothing, but it very interesting.

"Cool!" Goyle clapped, and called other Slytherins over, who also thought the tale was interesting.

"Denise Diggory is your mother?" one girl piped up.

I looked over and saw a very pretty girl- who wore a lot of makeup though, but it looked great on her, and she had sleek, long black hair.

"Yeah. Why?"

"A lot of people look up to her…my parents find it revolting though. My aunt hates her so terribly much- apparently she stole her boyfriend, and she ended marrying him."

"Wait- is your aunt Pansy Parkinson?"

"The one and only." she straightened up proudly.

"My mum didn't steal my dad from anyone! They were together first!"

"Are you so sure about that? Because I know for a fact, that you practically nothing about your parents history. How can you be sure?"

"Because I know my parents!"

"You'd be surprised at how much you don't." she looked at her fingernails.

"What are you implying?" I stepped closer to her.

"Nothing Malfoy…" she looked up, eye to eye with me. "You're really cute, you know that, right?"

I was taken aback for an instant. This girl was quick to say whatever she was thinking. She was attractive, but I didn't like her attitude. I shook my head, and walked away with my gang, leaving her alone. I saw Rose out of the corner of my eye, and she looked hurt- like she couldn't stand a pretty girl was talking to me.

Then she sprinted up the stairs, and away from the scene.

At the first Quidditch match of the season- it was Slytherin vs. Gryffindor.

James was Seeker for his team, and when we still on the grounds, waiting for captains to shake hands, he smirked at me.

"Lucky little Malfoy. Seeker in his first year…your dad didn't get on the team until his 2nd year…and he even sorta bought the team too…well, his dad did anyway. My dad is like you for this situation though. I got on the team for the first time last year."

"May the best Seeker win." I smirked, and then the whistle blew, so we went up into the air.

"Scorpius!" my gang cheered.

"James!" Gryffindors cheered him on.

"Yeah, go James!" I heard Albus say.

"Scorpius! Go Scorpius!…I…um…Go, James!" I heard Rose faintly.

She was cheering for me.

I had a surge of strength, and went up above the whole game, and scanned for a glimpse of gold. I saw it whiz by the Keeper for Gryffindor, and I dove after it. James saw it too, though, at that same moment, and he was closer, I was definite he'd win.

I then, instinctively, leaned in more, and sped past him. He passed me again though, and so I stood up, and reached out for the snitch, balancing on my broomstick.

I could barely touch it, but I reached, and I got it in my hand. Then, I flipped over when my broom hit the ground.

I just got up and showed off the snitch in my hand.

James got to the ground, and seemed to relax when he saw I was okay. What? Did he swear to look out for me too?

"Malfoy has got the snitch! Slytherin wins!" the announcer said.

And of course, the Slytherins pretty much threw a party because we'd won. Gryffindor almost always won- and they were convinced they had real talent in the palms of their hands.

I was sure that my parents would be proud of me for this one, and the next morning, at breakfast, my owl entered with all the others for once, and dropped a letter in my lap.

I ripped it open and read it. It was from my parents…and they were so proud of me- to hear that I'd made the team and was Seeker and to top it all off- won the game for Slytherin.

I then realized what my dad had said once. Harry and him were Seekers at the same time…James and I were Seekers…I hoped our…friendship, if you could call it that, would not be ruined. I was still mostly hoping my friendship with Rose and Albus wasn't ruined. But I was sure Rose was still my friend, after all the subtle hints here and there. But I'd have to be the man and apologize…she was probably too nervous. Albus, I was unsure about- but soon enough we'd have to confront each other, right?

A/N: This may or may not be my last chapter for a while, as I'm going on v.k tomorrow and won't be back for a month...and I only have internet acess at certain times...But I'll be writing the story, I just won't be able to upload it. Hope you all understand- and if you really want me to go through all the trouble of uploading while I'm away- can I have a few more reviews? ...There's no much to review in this story yet...but you can go back to the other one, and write reviews on each chapter in that one...I liked when people did that. I had like 30 reviews at one time when they did that- and what they liked abou each chapter specifically made me happy. :) Till then!
