Chapter One
Florence Donner watched a dark blur go past her, she turned her broom around to follow. The blur also past Gertie Scholar, the Gryffindor Captain, the Quaffle went easily into the center hoop. The blur stopped beside Gertie to reveal a red headed 5th year girl with bright and dazzling green eyes.
"Lily, you did it again!" Gertie announced. "Florence you're a Chaser, get the quaffle! And Fenton and Parker, why didn't you try to knock her off her broom?" The two Beaters shrugged.
"Remember Gertie, you are the Keeper, you are supposed to guard the goal posts." Fenton replied. "We're sorry Capt, we'll try harder next time!" He said pretending to cry while wiping his eyes.
"I know, it was my fault too." Gertie admitted. "You want to try again Lily?"
"Sure." Lily rushed to the middle of the field. "Where's the Quaffle?" She asked. Someone quickly flew up beside her and threw her the Quaffle.
"Nice moves, Lily." A familiar voice complimented.
"Thanks, James." She took the Quaffle. "Do you enjoy sitting on the sidelines while we practice and practice."
"What do you mean practice? You aren't practicing anything." James grinned. "You aren't even on the team! You just come to practice, you don't actually practice. You just help my team practice."
"Thanks for pointing that out." Lily replied.
"Hey, it's not my fault you aren't on the team! That is your own doing. We've asked you again and again, we've even tried pleading, but the answer is always the same." He sighed. "You don't want to."
Lily smiled. "Yes, you are correct. I'm not going to join your little Quidditch Team."
"Hey you two! Aren't we going to practice?" Fenton yelled. "You are going down this time Lily!" He teased. James flew back down to the sidelines to watch once again.
"Ready?" Lily yelled out.
"We've been ready for ages!" Fenton yelled. Lily nodded slightly to assure them that she heard them and then glanced around the field for an opening.
Lily spotted an opening between Florence and Tessie, both Chasers. Without a moments hesitation she darted towards them and sneaked right in between them. They began to follow her and tried to cut her off, Lily could feel their presence closing in around her. Quickly she dived down and then quickly right back up. Florence and Tessie didn't realize the quick maneuver until it was too late. They both flew down and knocked into each other making each unsteady on their brooms. It took them both a moment to regain their balance, when they finally did Gertie was on his way over.
"She scored didn't she?" Florence was the first to ask.
"Of course she did. When was the last time she didn't?" He replied and then sighed. "Are guys both okay?"
"We are both girls and we are both okay." Tessie said hotly.
"Yes I know you are both girls, won't ever let me forget." He laughed quietly. "Okay everyone, let's stop for today. Lily's beat us every time." He yelled over his team.
Everyone landed on the grass. The entire Gryffindor team was tired and hot, excluding James who had been watching for the last hour or so. He had done his practice first, Gertie would throw a fake Snitch in the air and James would dive to the ground and catch it.
They walked on their unsteady legs, they had been up in the air for a long time and wasn't used to the hard ground yet. They all headed to the Gryffindor locker room. Lily walked slower and was about to take her usual detour to the Gryffindor Girls' Dormitory, when Tessie also slowed down and walked with her.
"Still think you are too good to be on the team?" She asked hotly. She kept talking before Lily could speak a word. "Just because you are good doesn't mean all of us want you on the team, you know? Are you trying to impress someone with your stubbornness? You aren't impressing anyone." She ran up to the rest of her team, her long brown hair was in a braid bounced while she ran.
Lily was used to Tessie's cruelty. She had never liked Lily, and it had grown worse since Tessie had joined the team. Lily had always practiced with the team, ever since she was a little first year. But she never wanted to join the team. James had always pleaded for her to join, he would tell her if she joined the team they would be unstoppable. He would plead at least once a month. But her response was always the same, she didn't want to. She loved to practice with them and play for fun, but didn't want to be on the team.
Lily walked into the castle behind the Gryffindor team. They turned left towards the locker room while Lily turned right, towards the Gryffindor common room.
