Some Air

[Ryan]

Ryan walked onto the Quidditch Pitch with his broom and the trunk off ball, today was a nice day and thought it would be perfect to get some time in on his broom before he had to start practices. Ryan set down the trunk and walked into the middle of the field. He mounted his broom and took off into the air. As he flew around a smile started to form on his face. He loved to fly and loved to play Quidditch. Ryan had a lot of natural talent when it came to Quidditch, like every thing else he did. It was some thing he was really good at, he probably is one of the best at the school he might even be the best. Like he did with his school Ryan spent as much time as he could devoted to Quidditch so he could be as good as he was. This year was going to be a good year he was the Gryffindor captain and for a while now had been working on his plans for when he had to start practices. He was ready like always nothing was going to stop him or the Gryffindor team from winning it all this year.

[Jennifer Asher]

Jen had been staring out the window of the Gryffindor tower when she spotted Ryan down on the lawns, heading for the quidditch pitch. Having nothing else to do she decided to watch him practice. By the time she arrived he was already in the air. She sat on the grass, craning her neck to see him as he flew.

[Ryan]

Ryan up pretty high in the air did not see Jenifer sitting down. He flew higher and higher and them flipped on his broom and saw someone sitting down. He flew down lower to see who it was. When he saw it was Jennifer he had his way back to the ground

"I didn't know i was going to have an audience"

Ryan said with a smile as he touched down to the ground and walked over to her.

[Jennifer Asher]

Jennifer smiled and applauded Ryan's flying abilities. "You should always expect an audience. You're a very good flyer!" She got up from the grass and walked towards him. "I don't see why we shouldn't win the cup this year."

[Ryan]

"The cup is ours this year. I cant let it leave the house of Gryffindor could I?"

Ryan smiled and set down his broom. He was not going to losses this year, nothing was going to stop him from winning. He was ready for for anything that threw his way this year.

[Jennifer Asher]

"Such confidence," she said in faux pompous tone. "No wonder they made you captain!" She laughed. "Are you going to practice with the balls too, are you just flying today?"

[Ryan]

Ryan laughed, he thought it was funny the way she said "your ball" He knew she knew a bit about the game he just was wondering why she did call the ball a Quaffle.

"Well I could, but why practice when your the best?"

Ryan joked

"I dont really have any one to practice with"

[Jennifer Asher]

"I can fix that," she said grinning. "I'll play with you."

[Ryan]

"I dont think I have every seen you play"

Ryan spoke with question in his tone and a raised eyebrow

"I didnt even know you played"

[Jennifer Asher]

"I used to play with my brother Jakob. He was a chaser too, but not nearly good enough to be captain." She laughed. "I don't know how good I'll be, but it's better than no practice at al, right?"

[Ryan]

Ryan smiled

"ok, do you have a broom?"

Ryan walked over to the trunk of ball

[Jennifer Asher]

"I can get one." She pulled her wand from her robes and said "accio broom." A rather old, but sterdy looking broom flew from the castle broom cupboard. She caught the broom with her right hand and shoved her wand back into her robes. "Yes, you'll do," she said to the broom. "I'm all set," she said to Ryan.

[Ryan]

"OK"

Ryan leaned on the side of his broom and started to fly up into the air. But before he did he kicked the trunk and every thing flew out. Grabbing the Quaffle.

[Jennifer Asher]

Jennifer positioned herself on the broom and kicked off. It was strange being in the air, she hadn't been on a broom in a long while.

[Ryan]

"OK, so we can do one of two things, we can try to score on each other back and forth and trade off with who has the ball. Or we can look for the snitch and try to score on each other. So what do you want to do?"

Ryan said smiling, this was going to be fun.
