I had fell off my broom, but felt part of the snitch in my hands. I was
about to pull the snitch above my head signaling I had caught it, but felt
someone else holding the other side. Could it be that...? Nah. Impossible.
No way. Impractical.
But when I dared my eyes to look up, I found that Draco was holding the other half of MY prized possession. Both of our eyes widened as we kept giving quick glances at the snitch and at each other in disbelief.
Did we really.well...
Did we just make this game a tie?
Suddenly, Draco tried pulling it towards him. Nuh-uh. I caught it first. I pulled back on it and glared at him. In no time, we were both wrestling each other for the snitch. About a minute and three pulled hair strands later, Madame Hooch blew her whistle and came running down.
"Stop this foolishness, you two!" She yelled and broke us a part, except for the snitch we were both holding.
"I caught it first, which means Slytherin wins!" Draco yelled at me and tried again to make my fingers untwine from the golden ball. My fingers wouldn't budge.
"No, I caught it first! Which means RAVENCLAW WINS!" I yelled back fearlessly looking into his angered eyes.
"STOP IT, BOTH OF YOU!!!" Madame Hooch yelled, "We'll just have to look at a footage of time."
She took out a small, red key and placed it into a pair of yellow binoculars. She set her binoculars to 'three minutes ago' and turned the key. She starred into the binoculars for a while as "I see."s and "Uh-huh"s kept randomly coming out of her mouth.
"So, who won?" Draco asked impatiently as now the whole field of players surrounded us.
"In the first time in Hogwart's history, we have a tie!" She stated.
"Let me see!" Draco said and took one side of the binoculars as I took the other. Madame Hooch pressed a button and I saw Draco and I lunging for the snitch. In fact, we had caught it at the same time. We put it in slow motion about six times before we realized she was right. It was a tie.
Draco and I starred at each other unbelievingly. We both pointed at each other and yelled, "It's all YOUR fault!" in unison.
Sometimes it was really uncanny the way I was so much like Draco, yet so different.
"Folks! For the first time in history, we have a tie!" The announcer said as confused mutters came from everywhere.
"That's game! With the score of 190 to 190, both Slytherin and Ravenclaw win!" Madame Hooch yelled and started to leave.
Draco and I just stood there, completely pissed. We just walked away from each other, both of us holding our noses high in the air.
"I can't believe it.IT CAN'T HAVE BEEN A TIE!!" I said pacing back and forth in front of my team.
"Hey, chill out. We still have an equal chance for the house cup. And Ravenclaw technically got the Quidditch cup." Mike said trying to help my nerves.
"Yeah, but we share the cup with SLYTHERIN!! WHY!?" I said and bumped my head continuously on the wall in the Ravenclaw common room. Someone grabbed my head and stopped my from further brain damage. I sighed and walked sadly to the girl's dormitory.
"Good game, team. I just wish I had caught the snitch sooner." I muttered and opened the door into the dormitory.
I plopped on my bed and starred at the ceiling, wishing I had gone a tiny bit faster...
Stupid Draco...
The next two weeks I decided to completely ignore the creep. I was mad, no, I was furious. I think he was doing the same thing though. After Herbology one day, he blocked my passageway out the door.
I glared at him angrily and tried to move his arm from the doorway, but it wouldn't budge.
"Don't you think this is kind of silly? Ignoring each other like this?" He questioned.
"No." I said stubbornly. No way I was going to agree with him, but I knew he was right, this was getting kind of silly, "Yeah.yeah...you're...right." I murmured the last word and gave out a little smile.
"That's good." He said and hugged me. I punched him in the arm and he let go.
"That doesn't mean anything's gonna change, Draco. I still think you're a creep." I sneered and walked up to Astrology.
