Open Together Is Better Than Alone

[Professor Noel Waldgrave]

Noel was really happy that Gryffindor had managed to win their first game. But it was a strange game. Willow seemed such a good seeker that she managed to catch it like really fast. The lion had never seen such a thing before. But he needed the practice for the next game. He wanted to beat his brother and Slytherin. But also they had to go against Ravenclaw still. Noel had taken his broom and put on some comfertable clothes on his way to the Quidditch Pitch. He wanted to train a bit to not make a fool out of himself and to score some. But it would be actually better if he had someone he could practice with. But here he was alone on the pitch and ready to take off into the air. He had asked for a quaffle and got it along. He took it under his arm and stood on the ground. He remembered the feeling when he walked on the pitch at the game. And the first time he came to Hogwarts and seeing the Quidditch Pitch. It was so beautiful and he took a moment to take it all in. He was a lucky boy being part of this all.

Chloe had been so disappointed that they had lost their first game of the season, although she was over it now, but still, she wanted to improve even more. After all, now that she had an official position on the team the third year could not be a failure. She would not be one. She needed to have inherited her father's talent, right? She hoped so. Her mother wasn't magical so really, Chad was her only option here. That, and practice. Lots and lots of it. She took her broom and bat and when she arrived to the quidditch pitch, she looked up to see what the sky conditions were. She noticed Noel, a boy in her year, she hadn't actually talked to him in ages. She went over to him with a small smile. "Hi," she greeted. "You, uh, thinking of practicing?" she asked him, knowing he was in one of the teams too. ​

Noel hold his broom in his hand and looked around. He figured it would be fine to already get some laps done. But than she heard a voice and he figured it was to him, because there seemed to be no one else. He turned around with his broom inside of his hand and smiled when he saw Chloe. He hadn't seen her in a while. But she was also in the Quidditch Team he knew. It was nice since they talked about it in their first year. '' Hey!'' He than greeted her and smiled. '' I was indeed. You want to practice along? Try and hit me. Not that hard though..'' He than said with a grin. He did not liked bludgers that much and he has experianced how it felt in a practice. Gladly not in the game. But that would come perhaps still.

 

[Chloe Chan]

Chloe smiled and stood up a bit straighter when Noel noticed her, glad he seemed to want to socialise with her. She needed to, she needed to expand her circle of friends and actually get to know others better. Or those she knew already, but barely. She nodded at his suggestion, it was really nice of him to invite her to play with him. Quidditch was fun and Chloe knew of no better way than to spend her energy and free time. "Yes sure!" She laughed when Noel said she could try to hit him. "Or, how about I try to protect you from any incoming bludgers instead," she suggested, maybe it was better than intentionally trying to injure him. ​
