Chapter Five – Pre-Game Squabble
It was a bright morning and there was a slight mist on the grounds of Hogwarts but otherwise it seemed perfect conditions to play a leg locked free match of Quidditch. Shaeleigh awakens to the alarms going off in the rooms. The girls take a shower, do their beauty rituals, and then get dressed.
Kyle got out of bed when the other boys became roused to consciousness. He told Gunther good morning but again he grunted something about traitors as they got dressed.
Skipping breakfast for a bit more time the girls head over to their class. Shaeleigh had slept through it. Along with her Runes class and during her study break in the library. Finally when lunch time rolled around she was awake, officially.
Kyle put on his Gryffindor Quidditch uniform except for his robes and armor which he carried all bundled together slung over his shoulder after his potions class with Hufflepuff.
She sat amid her Slytherin group who went out last night. They all chatted and talked about the Gryffindor vs. Slytherin match. Shae as well as Aleason was amazed to hear that Muland hadn't used the leg curse for the game. He was saving it.
On his way to lunch Prof. McGonagall stopped him in the hall way giving him his detention slip. He would be spending his Saturday night restocking shelves in the library with Madam Pence. His happiness of taking the slip was something McGonagall couldn't figure out.
"I've got the prefect day picked out to use it on." Muland said just as he spied Gunthar entering into the Great Hall for lunch with Kyle.
The group calmed Muland down. Shaeleigh still hadn't a clue what happened, but Muland was still upset, very upset. Kyle walked into the great hall amongst some cheers from the Gryffindor table. He waved to them and made a bee-line for where Muland was sitting. A he passed him he slapped the detention slip down on his plate of food and just as quickly as he had come was sitting down next to Gunny showing him a copy of the slip. Piercing looks of hatred spouted from Gunthar and Muland to each other. Suddenly Gunther looked as if Christmas and his birthday had come early on the same day giving Kyle a big hug.
"What's this a note from your mommy Quodrono? Trying to get out of our deal?" Muland asked out loud. Shaeleigh tried to look at the note, but Muland held in on opposite hand from her.
Kyle ignored Muland as he ate and did his usual ritual with the guys at the table.
Mid lunch Professor Snape came out from behind the door where the Professors sat saying, "Shaeleigh and Muland. Come here now."
Shaeleigh grimaced. She rose up from the table and followed Muland up the staging area. Shae looked back the table and then at Kyle. She tried to flash a smile at him.
Kyle watched them walk to the front of the hall to where Snape was. Kyle returned the smile. She turned back around and three of them had a mini discussion. Snape did a bit of finger pointing. Kyle, along with most of the Slytherin table, looked on interested on what was going on. After a few minutes both of the students nodded. Snape pointed to Shaeleigh and then at the doors.
Shae quickly jumped off the stage area which wasn't an easy move in a tight short skirt. She ran by the Slytherin table and grabbed a couple of things before she bolted out of there room. She moved fast heading toward her house. She made it there with relative ease as the halls were bare because most students were at the game. Shaeleigh quickly changed and ran to the Quidditch field.
Kyle stood up and as if his teammates had been watching for him to do this he wiped his mouth with a napkin before leaving the Hall with the team in step. The team jogged down to the stadium changing room as part of there pre game ritual. Kyle got his armor on and taped up his wrists like a boxer. He put on his Gryffindor robes and began to stretch. Kyle stood up in the front of the Locke room's white board to give his pre match speech, another team ritual. "Alright team listen up! You all know we got the Slimies today. There going to be looking for cheep shots and easy targets. Don't present yourself." He began pacing before continuing, "Remember your training and you got your conditioning to fall back on... sounds like there calling for us now. So let's go get our cup!" He finished there was an over all psyched cheer in the room as they players exited for the pitch.
Shae knew the Gryffindor would be introduced first. She made it to field in time. Gryffindor's team was called out and introductions made. Shaeleigh only notice Kyle's and Gunther's name. She wanted to cheer for Kyle, but she shouldn't/couldn't.
Once Gryffindor took the field it was Slytherin's turn to be introduced to and presented to play the game. Shae listened and waited to hear Muland's name. However a substitution was being made on the Slytherin team before the game began. Brandon Shake, the
Slytherin seeker had to leave for a home emergency.
The replacement seeker flew up into the air from the box. She moved through the group to take her spot. Shaeleigh pulled her hair up in a ponytail once in place. Kyle gaped at Shae realizing she was to be the substitute seeker. She hadn't played Quidditch for Slytherin before, but was an All-star seeker for her previous school. Her uniform was black, but she wore the green cape of her house.
Gunther smirked over at Kyle, "Bet you wished you hadn't been sleeping with the enemy now, eh, mate?"
Kyle looked at Gunny saying, "Why don't you just shut the hell up? This changes nothing!"
Shaeleigh looked across at Gunthar, who was playing against her today. Kyle walked over to Shaeleigh as the players formed there circle at mid field. He produced a 3x5 picture from within his robes holding it out for her to take. She held it in her hand watching the picture begin at a portrait of Kyle and after a few second turned to mist and then the young man was displayed wearing midnight blue dress robes, before it again morphed into the boy holding a quaffle in his hands and his broom draped over his shoulder. Before looping again.
Shae turned the picture over where it was written
To: Shaeleigh
From: Kyle
All my love…
Kyle walked back to his place with the team with out a word before she could respond with even a thank you.
Muland had apparently seen the transaction gawking, "oh giving your little crush a picture of you while you still at least have a face only a mother could love!" The Slytherins howled with laughter and the Gryffindors seemed impartial about what just happened as they weren't too keen either on there captain being friendly with an opponent.
The two captains stepped forward when they were signaled by the official Madam Hooch. Muland and Kyle shook hands as Hooch said; "now I want a good, clean, hard fought game!"
"Whatever," Muland grunted as he scowled first from Madam Hooch to Kyle and then behind him at Gunther.
Hooch blew her whistle and the fourteen players took to the air, the seekers in position over everyone as the dark, whistling Bludgers and the rapid movement Golden Snitch was released first. Madam Hooch grasped the scarlet Quaffle in her gauntlet clad hands and in blowing her whistle she serves the quaffle straight up in the air, beginning or should it be said continuing the clash between the pride of Gryffindor and determination in Slytherin…
