Chapter 17
Nehal paced up and down the Gryffindor change rooms, twenty minutes before the time, and was changed already. She has a miniature model of the Quidditch pitch and tapped the model. "Revero!"
Just then the Gryffindor filed in. Nehal had been so annoyed because the Bash Brothers were in detention for hexing a Slytherin in the hallways, and never made it to the practices.
Jamie was never serious and always playing around and Daryl…was bossy.
Westley changed quickly and came to sit beside Nehal. "How do you feel?"
"Like hell!" answered Nehal tapping the miniature model.
"So what's the plan?"
"Fake it. They will think that they'll score at the right when you're at the left. Block it. When the players are low, their aiming for the highest hoop. When they're at your left they will pass it to their right and try to score. It's just Hufflepuff. We can beat them!" Nehal finished confidently.
Westley nodded his head. "Gotcha! Here come the Bash Brothers."
Trey and Mitchell walked in and sat quietly across from Nehal.
Trey said, "We've been practicing after curfew!"
"Good!" said Nehal unexpectedly.
Mitchell was going to say something when Jamie walked in.
"Hey Sweetie." said Jamie.
Nehal rolled her eyes. "That's captain to you!" She said this rather sharply for she was not in a good mood. "When your flying, pass it to Daryl then me. Our V-shaped routine. Keep it up! And I want to see you later."
"She looks pissed." whispered Daryl.
Jackie gave Daryl a strange look.
"She is" said Trey. "And when she's mad, she plays good!" He grinned at his brother.
Nehal was thinking along the same lines too.
When they were all ready, Nehal paced up and down. "Okay gang, I want you to think of every single thing that ever happened to you, which either hurt you made you mad, or a grudge. Thought of it? Okay…I want you to go out there and play with madness!"
Many people looked confused but the Bash Brothers and Westley were smiling. (So basically Jamie, Jackie and Daryl were the confused ones amongst the crowd)
Before heading out they all gave each other props for good luck. (LOL) Jamie then took Nehal aside.
"You wanted to talk Nehal?" asked Jamie
"Mm…with all this Quidditch and Head stuff and everything…I want us to go slow, okay?" Nehal quickly left a furious Jamie behind.
Fiona the announcer said, "And here comes the Gryffindor team. Pradhan, Allan, Rest, Thomas, Portman, Bell and Madden."
Madame Hooch said, "Captains shake hands."
Nehal smiled at the Hufflepuff captain. "Good weather."
"Er…good luck." replied the Hufflepuff captain. He then winked at her.
"Mount your brooms!" said Madame Hooch.
"And they're off!" cried Fiona. "Quaffle taken by Cory, passed to Willow. Ouch! Nice Bludger from Portman. Quaffle dropped to Bell. Passed to Rest, back to Bell AND he scores!"
The Gryffindor cheerleaders cheered.
"Quaffle taken by Willow, dodges Bludger pass to-ouch! Nice Bludger Madden! Quaffle back to Pradhan, she scores! Gryffindor 20-0. Oh Quaffle back to Willow! Oh! Close call! He shoots, he scores! 20-10!"
After that Westley stopped every possible Quaffle. Gryffindor was leading 70-10.
Jackie was keeping score and watching the game. She was fuming because Nehal had reminded her of all the bad things that happened to her. When she saw the snitch on the Hufflepuff side. "Yay Snitch!" She thought.
"Let's go Gryffindor, let's go!" chanted the Gryffindor cheerleaders. Danielle and Heather waved their pom-poms.
Jackie flew towards the snitch but out of the corner of her eye she saw Colt hit a Bludger and it was coming towards her. "Eeek!" She did a u-turn and the Bludger flew over her head nearly missing her. "Son of a gun!" She muttered. Jackie then continued towards her journey of catching the snitch. (LOL that sounds funny) Believe it or not the Hufflepuff seekers hadn't seen it yet and guess what? Jackie caught the snitch!
Danielle and Heather gave each other high fives.
The Quidditch team flew back down to the ground.
Nehal gave Jackie a hug. "Alright you caught the snitch!"
"Yeah." Jackie said in a sad tone.
"Aren't you happy? We won!"
"I am happy!"
Nehal raised her eyebrow.
"Okay, okay I'll tell. Colt was the one who sent the Bludger at me!"
"And that's a problem because…"
"I thought we were friends!" cried Jackie
"Well it's Quidditch. I mean you gotta do what you gotta do to win."
"But…I…I…don't want him to hate me."
"Jackie!" Nehal said shaking her shoulders, "You have Malfoy now! You don't need to worry about Colt. You've moved on, he hasn't! He's the one who has the problem!"
"But Neh Neh…he just gave me the middle finger! Did I do something wrong?"
Nehal looked at Colt and made sure he heard her. "He's an asshole. He's so fat that when he walks out the front door people say look it's the solar eclipse!" (Omg I love that, my brother made that one up)
Jackie sniggered.
Nehal smiled. "Anyways I'm gonna go have a lie –down. I'm so tried. Later!"
"Bye!" Jackie then looked at Colt. She didn't want him to hate her, although she was pretty sure he already did. She bit her lip not knowing what to do.
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"Nehal?" Jamie said walking into her room. He found Nehal lying down. "Nehal? Wake up!"
Nehal just pulled the covers over her head. "I'm trying to sleep here."
"But it's only 8:45!"
Nehal sat up. "It is?"
"Yeah…are you going to come to the party in the Gryffindor common room?"
"Er…no thanks."
"But you have to come! Your captain!"
"Well, what if I don't want to go."
"Then I'll just have to…tickle you!" Jamie started tickling Nehal.
Nehal pushed Jamie away. "Jamie how old are you, two? Gosh grow up!"
Jamie stopped tickling Nehal. "Will you please come?"
"Alright…only for a little bit."
"Okay that's understandable." Jamie started to walk off.
"And Jamie?"
"Yes?"
"Remind me to kick Colt's ass tomorrow."
Jamie laughed. "That's my girl."
Nehal smiled and walked passed him out of her room.
Meanwhile at the party Danielle and Diego were sitting on the couch drinking butter beer.
"That was some cheerleading." Diego said seductively.
"I try to do my best!" said Danielle, leaning closer to Diego.
"Well your best was terrific."
Danielle leaned forward, cupped Diego's face and kissed him.
"Hey guys what's up!" said Heather sitting down in between Diego and Danielle spoiling the mood.
"Oh you know the usual." replied Danielle an annoyed tone.
"Coolies."
Danielle nudged Heather, indicating for her to leave but Heather just ignored her and kept drinking her butter beer.
Diego said, "I have to go now…I'll talk to you later." And with that he left.
Danielle looked at Heather. "I hope you're happy with what you've done."
"But I didn't do anything!" objected Heather.
"Exactly!" exclaimed Danielle as she left to go to bed.
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
Jackie then noticed Nehal arrived to the party. "Hey."
Nehal smiled. "Hi, wow this party looks happening."
"Yeah it is, I just don't know if I am."
"Wait, are you-are you still upset about the Bludger Colt sent after you."
Jackie nodded her head.
Nehal rolled her eyes. "Jackie he did what he had to do. Besides I never see you two talk to each other anymore."
"I know and I feel horrible about it."
Nehal's eyes widened. "Are you into Colt?"
"No, no gosh no. I am in love with Draco."
"Then don't be so upset about this whole Colt situation."
There was silence.
Jackie looked at Nehal. "On the subject of boys; how are things going with Jamie?"
Nehal shrugged her shoulders. "You know, just taking it slow."
"Oh, slow's good. Fast is better!"
Nehal laughed and pushed Jackie. "Shut up!"
They both laughed.
