Closed Mistakes and misgivings

[Teddy Pirrip]

The noise of the crowd dulled as Teddy slipped around the back of the Quidditch stands. It wasn't a conventional way to leave the pitch and he didn't think anyone would think to look for him here. They'd lost the match but it wasn't a big deal really. Gryffindor had already won the cup, his team were already champions and this match against Beauxbatons was just a bonus game with nothing at stake. But losing still hurt him, especially when it came so soon after the mess he'd made of dueling that he tried and failed not to think about on a regular basis. That was the real challenge he had of processing the guilt of doing something so stupid that yielded nothing good for him. Again, he tried not to think about it.

Teddy liked that it was private in this spot with no one around, he found a comfortable place to sit and admire the view out. He stayed there quietly, practicing his conjuring spells but not having much luck. The professor had said it was NEWT level stuff that took focus, and right now he wasn't very focused. Then the sound of footsteps behind him made him turn his head to see who was there.

hugo felt no betrail to his house as he donned one of teddys gryffindor jumpers before heading to the quidditch pitch. after all gryffindor were representing the school. he cheered along as the chasers attempted to score and when the beaters made good hits. he almost couldnt elieve it but he was almost starting to enjoy watching quidditch. after the mess that was duelling he really hoped for a good outcome today even if it was just to cheer teddy up and not have him moping all the time. however it wasnt long before the Beauxbattons seeker was circling the pitch with the snitch in he hands.
once the game was over he exeted the stands and found a place to wait for his boyfriend near the change rooms but not os close that hwas looked suspicious or creepy. he knew teddy needed to be there for the team. and he wasnt going to take that away from him but he would like to at leastsee how he was and walk up to the castle with him. after a while he saw a few of the players leading out one or two ata time and then the figure that he could recognise from a while away slip out the door and move around the back of the stands. He followed himuntil he saw the boy sitting with the wand in his hand looking into space. he walked over to him not saying anything he just stopped and sat next to Teddy not saying anything just putting his arm around him and rubbing his thimb gently and reassuringly. lettign ted take the time he needed
