Delilah stumbled onto the field. The familiar feeling surged over her. She knew she just had to get on that broom. WHOOSH. Up into the air she went. 'I still have about 15 minutes 'till I'm scheduled to meet Taylor.' Delilah made a mental note to herself. Just glided and racing around the field gave her a feeling of happiness. There were a couple of spectators in the stands, but they didn't bother her. How could they? She was in her zone. She almost didn't see the figure flying toward her until they were almost upon each other.

Taylor headed over to the quidditch field after having changed and having got her broom. It was 15 minutes before she was suppose to meet Delilah and she sat in the stands for a while. Taylor saw Delilah in the sky so she decided to go up too. Taylor smoothed out her black shorts and blue tank top with ravenclaw on it. Taylor put her hair in a ponytail and flew up there. Taylor went near her and asked, "Hey Delilah, you ready to go?"

"AHHH!!!! Wha--Oh, it's just you. Sorry, got caught up in the moment." Delilah laughed at herself. 'Gotta shape up. Can't get so scared Delilah.' "Yeah, I'm definitely ready...Okay, well, you've been a Quidditch player longer than me...what should we do first?" You could almost see Delilah bouncing up and down on her broom, she was so ready and hyped up.

Taylor laughed at Delilah's eagerness. "Why don't we do a warm-up lap? First one around the quidditch field three times wins?" Taylor suggested while looking at Delilah.

"Well, be prepared to eat my dust!....then again, there is no dust to eat...well, you get my meaning...See ya!" With a cheerful laugh, Delilah zoomed off into a lap. 'Duh, I can so totally beat Taylor.' But, then again, she had never seen Taylor fly. Within seconds, Taylor was already 5 feet ahead of her. "Dang. Wow. Okay, okay, SPEED UP!"

Since Taylor was the Ravenclaw Seeker, she was fast and already 10 feet ahead of Delilah. Taylor finished a lap and continued onto the second one with full speed.

"Hmph. Well, she's obviously very good...Well duh, she's a Seeker. I'll just do my best and try to make it look like I only lost by a little bit.." And with that, Delilah raced off to try to catch up with Taylor. But of course, Taylor won...but just by a little! "That was refreshing. You are super fast. Dang...No wonder you're Seeker."

"Thanks. Well, what do you want to do now? You want to do a game of quidditch?" Taylor asked as she flew around Delilah.

"Sure...Can you do that with two people?" Delilah looked slightly confused...

"Yea, all we have to do is play all the positions. You're one team and I'm the other. But lets not use the position of Seeker so whoever scores 10 points first, wins," Taylor suggested as she did a flip in the air.

'Well, that'll be tricky, playing seven people at once.' Delilah thought, but she was too eager to care. "All, right. Let's go!" She took her place up by the rings. 'I'll start here and see how Taylor plays. Maybe, they'll be no Bludgers. That'd be bothersome.'

"So the game is pretty much just trying to score. Say I wack the quaffle and I don't make it in, you can take the quaffle and try to score on my end. So when one person is offensive the other is defensive. You could also steal the ball away from me but that would give me more of a chance to score," Taylor shouted so Delilah could hear her. Taylor conjured a quaffle and shouted, "Who's going to start first?"

"Well, then you wouldn't get to practice your part as Seeker! Oh well...ummm...you can go first I guess!" Delilah got herself prepared for blocking the Quaffle. Though Taylor was a Seeker, no doubt she would excel in other positions, too. Delilah didn't know why she thought that, maybe just because she knew Taylor as a competitive and talented person.

"Okay I guess I'll go first. On 5. 1, 2, 3!" Taylor said as she hit the quaffle over to the hoop. Taylor hit the quaffle in the direction of the middle of the hoop and hoped it would go in. Taylor zoomed forward, getting ready to steal it if it didn't go in.

Delilah steeled herself for the catch. 'Darn, missed it. Okay, just do what you did at tryouts. Calm, breathe, let the broom fly itself.' "Okay, my turn." Delilah doubted that she would make it, but she would try anyways. She first flew one way, then flew in the opposite direction, finally zooming straight at the left goal. She threw it with all her might, not at the center but toward the very bottom.
