WHO: Angelina & Adrian
WHAT: Midnight surprise
WHEN: Laaate Friday night/Sat morning
WHERE: Angelina's flat
RATING: Medium-ish
As an athlete, Angelina bought into rituals and superstitions. She always ate the same breakfast on gameday, she always drank from the same water bottle, she always tossed the ball in the air 15 times for warm-up, and random other things. It was that sort of insanity that kept her sane. Angelina had seen more than one quidditch player fall victim to the nerves and stress of pregame, and she'd seen others choke under the pressure. By keeping her mind focused on all the ridiculous things she wanted to get done, Angelina kept her game on track.
While it wasn't a superstition, Angelina tended to go to bed early before a game. The first hour or so was spent with her running through play after play, but she liked to visualize them with her eyes closed. Eventually she would drift off to sleep and get enough sleep.
It was during her sleep that Angelina stirred. There was knocking - or was that banging - on her door. "Bloody hell," Angelina mumbled before rolling out of bed. What time was it? Who was it? "I'm coming," she snapped before ripping the door open and looking into the eyes of Adrian Pucey. "Brilliant," she sighed.
