Chapter 17
Slytherin versus Gryffindor
Third match of the season and we're playing Slytherin. I have to say I was worried. Flint is captain and he'll be out to injure my players, so it is definitely possible that I will be spending the evening checking frantically on some injured player in the hospital wing. In the end though, it is just making us more determined to win! I was awake bright and early pondering over the fate of my players and thinking through tactics. After a while, I forced myself out of bed and got myself dressed before heading to wake up the team for breakfast. First I charmed a jug of water to spill over Fred and George before legging it out of the room with them on my heels. I lost them when I went to wake up the girls, in a nicer way!
"ANGELINA, ALICIA, KATIE, GET YOUR ARSES OUT OF BED BEFORE I DRAG THEM OUT!" That was met by groans and some slow stumbling out of beds. Now for my favourite wake up call, Mr Oliver Wood. I crept quietly into his room and stepped inside his curtains. His half naked body was lying in a slumber, hmmm nice! I lay my body down on top of his, facing the roof.
"Mmm, Cara what you at, get off." Tee hee hee.
"Nah, gotta wake you up."
"I am awake!"
"No your not, your falling asleep again." This woke him up slightly more.
"Hmm, ya you're right, well then, now I can do this." He put his arms around me and started kissing my neck. Wow that feels good, but no we have a match to play. I turned around to face him.
"Ah, that's better." He smirked at me and started kissing me again. I smiled but then remembered we have a match to play.
"Oliver, slytherin, up!" I jumped off him and left his dorm, leaving him slightly confused. Finally everyone gathered and headed to the Great Hall together while listening to my ranting about Slytherins weaknesses.
We made our way through the tunnel, Slytherin were already on the pitch. I swung my leg over my broom, kicked hard off the ground and led my team into the air as Lee Jordon commentated.
"AAAAaaannnnnd here comes GGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRYYYFFFINNDOOOOOR, led by the one and only, the fantastic CARA JAMESON. Cara is followed by OLIVER WOOD, FRED WEASLEY, GEORGE WEASLEY, ANGELINA JOHNSON, ALICIA SPINNET AAAAANNNNDD KATIE BELL. Young team this year but they haven't lost a match yet!" The crowd were screaming and chanting, "GO, GO GRYFFINDOR!" My adrenaline was just gone through the roof. My heart was racing as Madame Hooch stepped out onto the pitch and I flew towards her, glaring at Flint as he did the same.
"Now captains I want a good clean game from both teams." She said while glaring at Flint. We shook hands spitefully and flew back to our positions. The balls were released and players began zooming all over the pitch as I flew above looking for the snitch. We were soon sixty points up and Flint decided to employ his usual tactics. It was Alicia that got a hit from him first, earning a penalty for us that she scored without a problem. After another while there was still no sight of the snitch and it was apparent that Flint was picking on Oliver. He had already flung a bat and a few bludgers at him, poor Ol. Flint obviously hadn't forgotten their little run in. He's a stupid idiot though because he was just handing penalties to us, which of course we didn't miss! We were still only one hundred and forty points up, if they caught the snitch they would win, so I kept my eyes peeled and tried to lose the Slytherin seeker. Suddenly I spotted something glimmer in the sunlight near Olivers goal. I zoomed towards it, without the other seeker even noticing. Everything else around me faded out. I couldn't hear the crowd anymore; it was just the snitch and I. I urged my broom on and soon I was within arms reach of it. My heart was pumping like mad, the ultimate adrenaline rush.
Suddenly I felt a hard thump at my side, then a sharp pain in my knee. I lost focus on the snitch and lost balance. All I heard before I fell was, "Knew I'd get you back one day, bitch." and "NNOooooooo!" THUD!
A/N: Sorry, so short, but it's all for the effect! I'm also sorry for the delay, I'm not feeling very motivated with this lately but I'm going to finish it, so I'm going to write more now.
