Chapter 11

Draco was a bit nervous about trying out this year…

He'd let his temper get away from him with Harry getting put on the Gryffindor Team when it was supposed to be against the rules.

His father would not be pleased, he was to be more self-controlled then that. Something about Harry made him less then perfectly controlled.

He sighed, his 'friends' Pansy Parkinson, Vincent Crabbe, Millie Bulstrode and Greg Goyle followed him to the Pitch.

Adrian who was a year ahead of him lifted a hand in greeting.

He recognized, Marcus Flint who flew as a Chaser but was House Captain.

Adrian seemed close, almost friendly with Montague. There were a few Chaser hopefuls, Lucian Bole and Peregrine Derrick were smug and toying with their beater bats.

Flint strode towards him, "What are you trying out for Malfoy? If its Chaser you can just go back to the dungeons."

Draco snorted, "Chaser? Not hardly, I was more interested in Seeker."

Flint gave him a once over and sneered, "Unfortunately, you're still too young to fly for us."

"I'm a second year." Draco glared.

"Seeker is only open to those Fifth Year and older." Flint sniffed.

"That's not what you said last year." Draco scowled.

"Last year a mere First Year was below our notice."

"You have no decent Seeker, Mr. Flint. I see no harm in at least giving him a change to prove himself even if he ends up failing in the end." Professor Prince drawled.

Draco kept his face schooled in a mask to avoid showing how happy his godfather's support made him.

"Very well," Flint drawled. "Don't expect me to just allow you to intimidate your way onto the team just because your father is on the Board of Governors."

Draco snorted, "I wouldn't dream of it. I know I've got to earn my place in the world."

"Just so we have this clear." Flint sniffed. "Higgs! This arrogant prat wants to race you to the snitch."

Terrence Higgs was a Sixth Year, having flown an unremarkable season last year despite their receiving the Quidditch cup the last few years.

"With Potter Flying for Gryffindor I expect better then your best Mr. Flint." Professor Prince warned.

Adrian frowned, "Isn't he your adopted son?"

"Yes but I don't want my house to embarrassment by handing Gryffindor the victory just because my son is playing Seeker." Uncle Sev grumbled.

Draco pushed off, flying against Higgs with all the focus and determination as if this were a real match.

His third capture of the snitch Flint bellowed at them.

"Higgs get off the pitch, you're demoted to reserve. Malfoy go dig out a Seeker's kit."

Draco bowed landing and handing the practice snitch smugly to the captain.

Unobtrusively, Uncle Sev squeezed his shoulder in pride.

Draco nodded sharply and went to find a kit that would fit his slim frame.

A Second Year Seeker was almost as unheard of as a First Year one…

He had his coveted position but challenging Harry in the air still left him cold…

Once Quidditch tryouts were dismissed, Draco went to write to his parents about being selected for the House Team. It should make them proud…

He planned to be the best Seeker Slytherin had ever seen…


What do you think? Outstanding? Exceeds Expectations? Acceptable? Poor? Dreadful? Troll?

A/N- I decided to stop confusing every one- including myself. Harry's soon-to-be sisters are only three years behind him. Which fits best because when he is a Fourth Year and Draco is in Fifth, the girls are eleven. Sorry for the confusion.
