Felicity stepped out onto the field, her broom in hand. Today was unusually warm, and very bright out. Perfect day for practicing for Quidditch no?
Fay took to the air, the vibrating bludger in her hand. Her beater was in the other, and Fay glared across the field, her grip on the bludger not releasing.
This week had been tough, and stressful, to say the least. Fights, surprises, stupid old men who boss people around and smack their kids. Oh, Fay was probably far past her 'happy place.'
The bludger flew from her hand, went a little ways down the field, then zoomed back at her. Felicity tightened her grip on her beater and swung her arm, smacking the bludger across the field. She did this several times, sometimes letting out a grunt as she smacked the bludger.
This was a good stress reliever, beating a bludger. Nobody else was hurt or annoyed by ranting. As Felicity beat the bludger, she grumbled under her breath, most likely ranting to herself. Since her mother started her new job at Honeydukes, she wouldn't leave Fay alone. Felicity was close to just locking her mother in a broom closet. Stupid vain veela.

Leyla walked to the Quidditch pitch. It looked perfectly, it was just a beautiful day for some practice. A girl was beating a bludger.Leyla took her nasty old broom and said firmly: 'Up!' She stepped on the broom and flew up high. The feeling of flying was just perfect, the wind in her hairs being one with your broom and the wind. She really needed a new broom, but she was just to close with this one.She was cherished with it.Leyla had a bludger under her arm, it was a wild thing but she could take control of it.
Leyla flew to the girl and asked: "So, are you a beater?" Leyla took her bat thing and threw the bludger. "Beware, I am not the best beater and that's obviously the reason why I am here." Bludger also enjoyed its flied and merrily flew back with great speed to Leyla. Leyla swung her arm back. The bludger was reaching and Leyla brought her bat to the Bludger. She closed her eyes and hoped nobody got hurt. Leyla was glad when she saw that the Bludger was on his way again. Well she was glad for a moment till the bludger almost shattered her head. She could duck away on time. The bludger flew away again, Leyla turned her broom and swung away the bludger. In great panic Leyla asked: "How do I have to stop this .. thing!?"

Felicity noticed --out of the corner of her eye-- that some other girl had come to join her. She started to hit the bludger, so Felicity lowered her beater. "Yea, I'm a beater. Been doing it since forever. I love it." A grin flashed across her face.
Fay noted the girl's distress as the bludger kept reappearing. She laughed and zoomed in front of the girl, cutting the bludger off from hitting her. Felicity smacked the thing to the ground, then zoomed after it. She pulled up on a broom slightly and jumped off, landing near where the bludger had hit the ground. She took it in her arms and grinned up at the girl. "That's how."

Leyla laughed shyly. She felt stupid, but that's why she was here, to practice. "Sooooo, that's the way.."she yelled. She had signed up and she is in the team now, but this girl was much better..
"What is your favourite Quidditch team?"She asked it to be break the silence, since Leyla was very chatty. "Mine is Hollyhead Harpies .. of coures." It sounded really logical, Leyla was a girl so.. Leyla took her bludger and swung again with her arm and the bludger flew away.

Felicity put the bludger back in the box and got back on her broom. She flew back up to the girl and grinned. "There are a lot of easier ways, but that one is just fun." Fay laughed.
"Favorite team? Eh, I don't really have one actually. Whatever tickles my fancy at that moment I guess." She shrugged. "Oh dear, I forgot to ask your name. I'm Felicity Locke." Fay grinned again. "Usually known as Fay though. Who're you?"
((Ug, Short and Crappy))

Was it even possible to live without a favourite Quidditch team? Hello? How could this girl watch Quidditch matches without having warm feelings for the other team or hoping that someone gets knocked off its broom? Or was this thought to Slytherinish?Of course Leyla didn't knew because there was one thing she didn't want to be and that was a pure Slyth. She just wanted to be an exception.
"Well, I am Leyla Reines.I don't have any nicknames, so maybe you can come up with one?" Leyla swung another bludger to the other side of the quidditch pitch.
(( As you noticed, I am one of the masters of short and crappy))
