A story from the Angeline Universe
It was a very important day for the Ravenclaw team, he had won Gryffindor, from 380 to 300, a beautiful victory for the blue eagles, then they had won the Hufflepuff, from 340 to 310. Now they were playing in the Cup final Quidditch, against Slytherin, if they won this game, Ravenclaw would have been undefeated for three years, that left the team's seeker, Angeline Lancaster, extremely excited, she managed to catch the snitch at the right times.
After the captain's completely unique speech, Orion Amari, Angeline left the locker room, while tying her hair in a very tight ponytail to get some fresh air, when she finished the girl saw a black-haired figure, wearing the uniform of Slytherin team, in front of the entrance to the rival team's locker room. The girl knew who the boy was, approaching with a smile on her face and called the boy:
The boy turned and his brown eyes met the girl's blue eyes and he smiled at Angeline. She didn't expect to meet Roger at that moment, she was hoping for a more private moment between them, because today was not only the end of the Hogwarts Quidditch Cup, but it was also the birthday of her best friend Roger.
"Ah, hi Angeline." He said in a relaxed way.
"Hi, I just wanted to wish you luck." But after saying that, his tone became determined and confident. "No taking it easy with the bludgers, my duty is to catch the snitch, and yours is to knock me off the broom."
"Leave it to me." Roger replied with a nervous smile.
"Is there a problem, Roger?" Angeline asked, seeing his friend's nervous expression.
"I just don't want to hurt you." Replied the Slytherin scout.
"Don't worry, I wouldn't join the team if I was afraid of hurting myself, bludgers don't scare me, Roger." Said Angeline, ruffling Roger's hair. "Don't be afraid to throw the bludger at me, I'm sure Rath won't be afraid to knock me off the broom."
"She's tough, but she won't hurt you ..." Roger looked at the incredulous look on Angeline's face. "Not on purpose." He hurried to complete the sentence.
"I prefer to take a bludger from you than Rath." Angeline said laughing, and Roger couldn't help laughing too.
Angeline looked at Roger and opened her mouth to congratulate him, but was unable to say anything, she was interrupted by a voice coming from the Slytherin dressing room:
"Hey, Lopez." The blonde and strong girl, wearing the Slytherin uniform appeared at the entrance to the locker room, Erika Rath's eyes were her team's beater for the Ravenclaw seeker. "What is she doing here?"
"Hello, Rath, I'm just wishing my friend good luck." Angeline replied, crossing her arms and rolling her eyes. "Our teams may be rivals, but I have friends on the Slytherin team. I have to go back to my locker room now, good luck, Roger."
Angeline stretched a little and hugged Roger by the neck before turning and going to her own dressing room. She could wish Roger a happy birthday when she was alone, mainly because the gift for him was in his dorm. When she returned to the dressing room, Madame Hooch had just entered to speak to the team.
"Okay, Ravenclaw, the time has come, the last game that will define the Hogwarts Quidditch Cup winner this season, they already know that I want a clean and cheat-free game." Madame Hooch's voice was serious when she said 'fair play and no cheating'. "That said, good luck to everyone. Get ready to take the field."
Angeline approached her closet and took out her Comet 260 broom, the blue-haired girl joined the line of players next to the captain, in place of the seeker. She felt a hand on her shoulder and a voice whispered in her ear:
"Let the chasers have fun, too, little sister." Candy (@immagrosscandy), the Ravenclaw boy, with brown hair and chocolate eyes, whom Angeline adopted as her brother. "So I didn't get the snitch that fast."
"I don't guarantee anything, but I will try." Angeline said to the boy
While they waited, Angeline heard McNully talking to the stadium.
"Be very welcome, students, teachers, Madam Norris, I'm sure everyone is looking forward to the last match of the season, today's match will define the winning home are you ready?" A great cry of enthusiasm came over the Quidditch stadium and that made Angeline feel even more motivated. "Now we are going to receive with applause, shouting and everything we can, the three-time champion team, the team with the most wins in the last few seasons, the team that hasn't come to play, is the Ravenclaw team."
Angeline just like the rest of the team got on their brooms and with an impulse, they flew towards the field, the Ravenclaw students and the students who were cheering for the blue eagles shouted, applauded and waved small blue and bronze flags, Angeline waved to the fans, while flying with Orion to his right and Skye to his left, the girl waved to the fans while flying. After they positioned themselves on their side of the field, McNully started announcing the rival team.
"Now, we are going to give a big ovation to the team that is willing and came to retrieve their crown from the Hogwarts Quidditch team, we are going to welcome the Slytherin team."
The students wearing the green Slytherin uniform entered the field, Rath and Roger as the beaters, Riley Seacrest to Seeker (@hphm-brooke), the girl with black hair and red eyes, also known as demon eyes, Angeline had to admit that it was quite difficult to compete against Riley, she was fast and accurate, the games against Slytherin were always quite challenging because of the girl.
"Madame Hooch heads to the center of the field to start the game, now it is counting down to the beginning of strong emotions." McNully announced.
"When I blow my whistle!" She shouted Madame Hooch to the players.
Kicking the chest, all four balls were thrown into the air. When the quaffle fell slowly, the flight instructor whistled and the gunners advanced on the quaffle, as if it were a swarm of rabid wasps. While the chases vied for possession of the ball, Angeline took a moment to see if she could see the Snitch, and apparently Riley had the same idea, while scanning the field with her eyes, the Ravenclaw girl's ears heard McNully's narration.
"Vigiere is in possession of the quaffle, and he has a clear path to Slytherin's goal, there is nothing to stop him… not there, Vigiere was hit by a Lopez bludgers and the Ravenclaw chase leaves the ball escape to be caught by Scarborough (@cursebreakerfarrier), this girl really has a strong grip. "
Quickly Angeline took a look at Candy who didn't seem to have happened, as he hurried to catch up with Willie, along with Orion and Skye. However, there was no more time to observe her friends, a golden glow passed right in front of Angeline's face and the girl realized that it was time for her to take action, holding the broom handle firmly, she started chasing the golden ball.
"The Lancaster girl is on the move, she spotted the golden snitch, will we have a shorter match than the Ravenclaw game against Gryffindor? But wait, Seacrest is also following Lancaster, it will be a close contest, me who I wouldn't put myself between these two girls... "
Angeline looked over her shoulder and saw Riley getting closer and closer until they were shoulder to shoulder, for a fraction of a second, Ravenclaw's deep blue eyes met Slytherin's glowing red eyes, both were determined not to give up so easily. However without warning, a bludger hit the bristles of Riley's broom causing her to falter and lose speed.
"Luan Silver (@lunasilvermorny), yes, Luan Silver, the pink-haired beater managed to get Seacrest out of Lancaster's glue, with a perfectly calculated bludgers, it was a risky move, Silver, but it paid off and the Ravenclaw fans are thrilled with that move."
In the distance Angeline saw Luan winking at her before advancing against the Slytherin players.
Thus the game continued for some time, with the score of 250 for Slytherin against 200 for the Ravenclaw, Angeline's rival home was won by 50 points ahead thanks to Erika Rath, who hit Andre when he dived to defend the goal. Now if they wanted to have a definite chance of victory, Angeline needed to get the snitch. Probeing the field again like an eagle looking for its prey, Angeline spotted the snitch above the line of the booths, if she hesitated the girl climbed up behind the little ball that tried to escape, but the girl with blue hair was determined to catch it, while flying in Toward Slytherin's goals, the snitch was inches from his fingers, almost as if the girl could feel the temperature of the winged object.
Stretching as far as she could, she felt the touch of the Snitch, but in the next few seconds everything happened at the speed of a lightning bolt across the sky, a sharp pain came when she was hit violently by something in the ribs, and as she was practically lying on the broom handle, she lost her balance and fell, feeling the free fall, Angeline only had time to shrink her body and close her eyes waiting for the impact with the ground, but unexpectedly a pair of arms wrapped around her body, she she was still flying, while she opened her eyes, she was in Roger's arms, pressed against the chest of the boy who looked at her with concern.
"Angeline, are you okay?" He asked looking quite concerned.
"Ro… Roger…" Angeline, who was still a little pale, stuttered when she spoke, she seemed surprised by the Slytherin's attitude. "You save me…"
"Well… yes…" Roger's cheeks turned red as he looked away. "I said I didn't want to hurt you and I don't want you to get hurt."
"Look at this, Rath's bludger hit Lancaster in the ribs, but Lopez the Slytherin beater caught Angeline Lancaster when she was falling, if that's not an altruistic and gentlemanly act, I don't know what it is. But this heroic act of Lopez, unfortunately does not change the fact that Angeline Lancaster caught the Snitch, the Ravenclaw is once again the champion, for the third year in a row, come on Ravenclaw, you have to celebrate! 350 to 250 for the Ravenclaw!"
When McNully finished announcing the Ravenclaw victory, all the students wearing blue and bronze burst into cheers and celebrations. As they planted towards the lawn, Angeline could not take her eyes off Roger, if black hair flying with the sun, his hand keeping her close to him, while he could feel the heat of Slytherin's body and the fast beating of his heart, in that moment, the blue-haired Ravenclaw blushed and felt his heart race because he realized something he should have noticed a long time ago, Roger Lopez was a cute and very handsome boy.
When they landed on the floor, Angeline went down and looked at the boy who was also flushed. She opened her mouth to thank Roger, but failed, as her teammates and home students surrounded her to congratulate her for taking the Snitch. And they dragged her off the field even though she protested to wait.
As much as she tried, the girl was not able to fool the students from their homes who approached her to congratulate her, that was one of the disadvantages of being on the Quidditch team, luckily Candy, at the request of the girl, distracted everyone to a white kitten with blue eyes and a streak of blue hair on top of the head, discreetly leave the common room. In the hall she started looking for Roger, she had unfinished business with him.
After twenty minutes of searching, she found Roger sitting at his desk in the magic history room, the boy wearing the Slytherin uniform, but with the Hufflepuff scarf around his neck, was reading his book "Advanced Potion Making", approaching the kitten jumped on the table and meowed to the young man.
"Angeline?" Asked Roger as he looked at the cat with a blue streak.
In the next second, Angeline was sitting on the table, looking at the young man with a smile.
"Now that we're alone, thanks for not dropping me, Roger." She thanked him with a big smile.
"It was nothing, like I said, I didn't want you to get hurt." Said Roger, his cheeks turning red. "Rath always ends up using a lot of force."
"Also, this is for you, Angeline took a small package from her pocket, an emerald green box with a yellow and black bow, and handed it to Roger." I haven't forgotten, happy birthday, Roger."
"Ah, er… thanks, Angeline." By the look on Roger's face, he was really surprised. "I didn't think you knew."
"Of course I do. I hope you like it."
Roger hurried to open the box and inside it, wrapped in a small piece of blue velvet, a small crystal globe the size of an orange, inside there was a kind of silvery blue mist that kept spinning inside the ball.
"This is the Eye of Tupã, it is a magic of the Brazilian Indians, which allows you to relive memories that are important to you, I made some changes to the original spell, and it will show you the happiest moments of your life, Roger." Explained Angeline. "I hope that when you feel sad, it can remind you of happy times."
"Thank you very much, Angeline." Roger thanked him, at that moment the mist took the form of ... Angeline. The girl looked at Roger in surprise, the now with a very red face. "I… I… meeting you is a very happy…" Roger ran a hand through his hair looking away.
Angeline couldn't help but laugh at how Roger was acting, his cheeks red and his shy look was very cute. She came over and kissed Roger's cheek before hugging him.
At that moment the mist from Tupã's eye on Roger's hand took on a new form, while the boy's hands enveloped the girl, now the mist took on the form of Roger receiving the kiss on Angeline's cheek.
