Practice

Caysi looked at the ball speed around them and Murtagh going for it. Then she blurted out " Do you guys want to play....See how many hoops we can get if someone is our goal keeper". she said half laughing.
 
"Sure," Murtagh grunted as he moved his broom up and stood on it so that he could catch the quaffle. When he grabbed it he fell back onto his broom and throwing it over to Caysi. "Seeing as none of us are keepers I'll take the first shift."
 
Sam continued to watch, interested. She was still trying to stem the coldness that was washing over her. She had never felt this before. Where had that happiness gone that she had just felt a moment ago watching the three Quidditch players practice? Distantly, she could hear the creak of a door open...
 
"Ok" Murtagh said as he went up and circled the goals.
 
Caysi smiled and got the quaffle and said" Watch out Murtagh!". she said jokingly as she whipped the ball going into the goal post.
 
((Did you throw it or not?))
 
Murtagh flew up a little bit and nocked the quaffle away from the hoop.
 
"Thanks," Murtagh said grabing the quaffle and throwing it back to Caysi.
 
Caysi smiled and caught the Quaffle and said " How about this one Murtagh". she said putting the quaffle in the air and kicking in off with the end of her broom.
 
Murtagh saw the quaffle fly way above the three hoops. He laughed and said, "Good one you just need to work on your aim." He speed off very fast on his Streak and got the quaffle. When he got back he threw it to Caysi.
 
Caysi smiled and caught the quaffle and said " Ok Murtagh if you can catch this one....I give up". she said smiling. She went zooming forward the threw the ball so hard she couldn't even see it.
 
Murtagh wasn't even ready for it it just rushed passed him and threw the hoop.
 
Sam opened her mouth a little, wanting to know if she could play, before she shut it. There was no need to bother these three. She sighed and stood up, her mind quickly drifting towards a nice, quiet time next to the fire up in the common room.
 
Caysi smiled and said " Now it's your turn Murtagh to through the ball at me". she said jokingly.
 
Caysi laughed and flew up to the goal posts and said " Bring it on Peachy!". she said jokingly.
 
She gave the three one last quiet look before she gave a happy, crooked grin and left the pitch for the common room.
 
Murtagh flew down to the stands towards where a girl had been sitting for a while. He thought that she might like to play. So he asked, "Would you like to play?"
 
She stopped at the exit of the pitch, and turned around to see a boy asking her a question...

"Would you like to play?"

She stood there, a little shocked with a quizzical expression on her face, before she brought one hand behind her hand, closed her eyes and gave him a crooked smile.

"Sure...um, I'll go grab a Cleansweep from the broom cuboard..."

So, she edged quickly away, and ran towards where the Gryffindor's got changed for their matches, s.natching a broom from the cuboard, and then rushing back, onto the pitch, out of breath.
 
While the girl walked to get a broom Murtagh started laughin as he took off to where he had come onto the pitch there he picked up his firebolt. There was no need for the girl to so THAT broom. He handed it to her then he said, "Here you can barrow my firebolt I just bought a Scarlet Streak."
