“Hit a nerve, did I, Cross?” Paddy sneered, taking a few cautious steps closer to the girl. “You know, all those…nasty little things…people say about the two of you…they really aren’t hard to believe.” Of course, he didn’t actually believe any of the rumours he liked to facilitate , because….well, there just wasn’t any way they could be true, was there?

Maya’s gaze went cold and she lowered her broom to the grass so she could cross her arms over her chest instead. ‘’Speaking of nasty little things,’’ she said in a sugary sweet voice, her head tilting to the side and eyebrows drawing together in a mocking look of concern. He wasn’t the only one who had heard and created rumors. ‘’How’s Beth doing these days? Last I heard she’d gained at least a good four stone overnight. Before being whisked away to France, of course.’’

paddyfinnigan:

“Kyle’s not going to bench me, sweetheart, because I’m the best Seeker we’ve got. Your brother’s going to keep me in the game because he wants to win the game.” He averted his gaze, chewing on his bottom lip to keep from snapping at Maya like he wanted to. “You’re right, I’m not a freak. I’m not unhealthily attached to my sister. Your brother, on the other hand…” His lips curled into another smirk, as though he was daring Maya to challenge him. “Total freak.”

Maya gave a roll of her eyes and felt a sense of satisfaction when he looked away before she went very still when he shot back. She was pretty sure if it wasn’t so dark outside, he could see the color drain from her face. That was... Too close to home. ‘’You don’t know what you’re talking about, Finnigan,’’ she said in a quiet voice. ‘’You better back off.’’

paddyfinnigan:

“Jealous? Of your brother?” Paddy demanded, an incredulous laugh startled out of him. “I’m more likely to be jealous of a flobberworm, than I am of your snake in the grass brother. They’re less slimy than he is, at any rate.” He rolled his eyes, shoving his hands into the pockets of his jacket. “Haven’t you heard, Cross?” he sneered, “The freaks are always out on the night of a full moon.” He couldn’t exactly tell her why he’d been skulking around the grounds, nor why he’d been making his way towards the Forest. “I’m just out for a little stroll.”

‘‘You better watch your mouth, Finnigan,’’ Maya demanded, eyes narrowed in a glare and fingers itching to curl around her wand. It didn’t matter what their relationship was like right now, no one just insulted her brother right in front of her. ‘‘I’d watch yourself, too, while you’re at it,’‘ she warned in a light, peppy tone, her head tilting with a mocking questioning look. ‘‘You don’t think Kyle can’t bench you, do you?’‘ She snorted and her eyebrows went up in disbelief. ‘‘You’re not actually putting yourself in the freak category, are you? Hate to break it to you, but you’re not that scary, sweetheart.’‘

abi-outofthewoods:

Abi hadn’t noticed someone had been flying around all night, she just needed something new to do at night that wasn’t having the terrible flashbacks. She headed over to the pitch, still unaware, and almost bumping into the other who was heading off the field. “Ugh, please don’t tell anyone I’m out here now.”

Maya jumped when someone ran into her. ‘’Hey, watch it!’’ she snapped before huffing and reaching up to tuck her hair back. She raised an eyebrow. ‘’You probably shouldn’t be out here then.’’

themalrobinson:

“Why?” Mallory asked, a bit confused, “He’s never done anything but help me out when I needed it. I personally don’t understand why people don’t like him.”

Maya shook her head. ‘’He’s a Carrrow. Just because he got Hufflepuff, doesn’t make him any less of one. Just wait.’’

themalrobinson:

“Well, of course he would,” Mallory said with a wide smile, “He’s my friend. Besides, he’s a genius. He could probably figure out where Socks is pretty quickly.”

Maya shook her head in disbelief and opened her book again. ‘’If you trust that guy, you’re an idiot,’’ she said bluntly, eyes on the book.

themalrobinson:

“Probably. Have you seen Phoenix Carrow around?” she asked with a smile before letting out a hum, nodding, “Well, once I find him, I’ll be sure to take your advice.”

Merlin, her endless peppiness gave her a headache sometimes. Maya didn’t know how she did it. She glanced up to raise an eyebrow at the question. ‘’You don’t actually expect him to help you, do you?’’ she asked skeptically.

cameronthelongbottom:

Cameron just wanted some flying time in. He had heard it helped others, and he knew sometimes wacking those bloody bludgers could do the trick. Of course, though, he ran into Maya just finishing on the court when he was heading down there. Not having seen either of the Crosses in a while, he sighed. “Uhh… sorry, I didn’t realize that you was you flying around. I just hoped the get some time in.” Because my best mate and other beater is ignoring me, but Cameron left that one out.

Maya jerked when she heard a voice, quickly coming back into focus only to narrow her eyes in a glare when she recognized the source. She pulled her wand out to hold it at her side, just in case. She wasn’t about to let him within two feet of her again. She didn’t care if he was being blackmailed, too. She didn’t like being anyone’s pawn and didn’t respond well to forced physical contact. ‘’Be my guest. Just stay the hell away from me.’’

themalrobinson:

“You look like someone who wants to help out her dormmate,” Mallory suggested with a hopeful smile, “I probably should. Know any good ones?”

‘‘And you look like you need a Hufflepuff,’‘ Maya quipped, reaching out to pull a book into her lap to flip it open before giving a huff. ‘‘Just attach a Point Me spell to him. Pretty self-explanatory.’‘

“You know your brother’s gonna run the team into the ground, right?” Paddy drawled, with all the lazy confidence of someone who knew they had the element of surprise. “I’ve seen his training schedule. We’re all going to be so exhausted we won’t have anything left for the games. And it definitely won’t help if certain members of the team decide they want to sneak out for a little bit of midnight flying…”

Maya gave a jump and a curse, swinging around to the voice before her eyes narrowed in recognition. Her grip on her broom relaxed slightly and she raised her eyebrows. ‘’Just because you’re too jealous to see straight, doesn’t mean he’s gonna ruin anything, Finnigan,’’ she shot back. She made a mental note to talk to her brother about the training schedule. It wouldn’t hurt, but she wasn’t about to let him know that. She snorted and gave him a pointed look. ‘’Certain members, huh? That includes you, too, then? What are you even doing out here?’’

“I sit here every day,” Jia said. She sat her bag near the table, arms crossed over her chest, “It’s my table and my seat.”

‘‘It’s the library, Jia, there isn’t any assigned seats. Just find another seat,’‘ she said with annoyance.

“Have you seen my cat? Grey, white feet, pretty fat, answers to the name Socks?” her cat kept getting out of the common room and she was getting pretty annoyed by it, “I can’t seem to get him to stay in the common room.”

‘‘Do I look like Animal Control?’‘ she huffed, pushing past her to take a seat on an armchair. ‘‘You need to put a tracker spell on that thing.’‘

#[mallory]#paras

Jia sighed as she entered the library, her eyes immediately drawn to her table. As seemed to be her luck lately, someone had already occupied it. Normally, she would try and find another one, but the library seemed pretty crowded and she decided to simply deal with it as she walked over, “I’m sorry. You’re sitting in my seat.”

Maya didn’t bother to even look up. ‘’From here it looks like my seat,’’ she replied flippantly. She turned the page in her book and started taking notes again on a piece of parchment.

The only thing that helped take Maya’s mind off anything anymore was flying. She had waited until the pitch was clear and took her broom out to fly for what felt like hours, but in reality was only an hour and a half. Her feet hit the grass as the moon started rising and she carried her broom back towards the castle to get back before curfew. She had enough to worry about. She was too wrapped up in her thoughts to realize anyone coming up behind her.

He flushed a bit at that and sent her a slight glare, though there wasn’t any heat in it, “There’s three chasers, two beaters, a keeper, and a seeker,” he said quickly, because he’d heard enough of the basics of the game from his family, “Each goal is worth 10 points. The snitch is worth 150. Game ends when the snitch is caught…” he trailed off a bit, suddenly realizing that his knowledge of the game did not expand much more, as he usually ignored his family’s ramblings of it, “I know things.”

She gave a snort then and turned to give him a bemused look. ‘’I’ve been out on that field for years, Potter. You did not just try and impress me with the rules of the game.’’

kylecrossisboss:

“I’m hoping Cameron will help me keep look out,” he chuckled before shaking his head. He watched as Lucy Weasley got the quaffle snatched from her as a bludger hit her. “Alright, Lucy has lost her grip over the summer, I see.” He looked at his sister and smirked. “You’re going to kill it.”

She snorted. ‘’Good luck with that,’’ she drawled before sending him a look with raised eyebrows and an amused smirk. ‘’As if I wasn’t going to already?’’

“I know things,” he countered, “Both my siblings play Quidditch, and my mum played it professionally. I just don’t like it,” he grimaced lightly.

She rolled her eyes before making a motion towards the game. ‘’Then go on, Potter. Impress me with your grand knowledge of all things Quidditch.’’
