For a moment she eyed Charlie as he told about what he had started out wanting to be. She remembered how she hadn’t fully believed Oliver on her first night at Hogwarts, when he had claimed that Charlie was the best Seeker the Gryffindor team had had in years. Up until then, she had believed Charlie to be the Keeper up until then. “You’re patient too when you play,” Alicia shared what she had noticed about him both at matches and at the practices she had watched from the stands. Realising that she had just admitted to noticing how he played, she shrugged a little before she continued. “If you don’t get distracted you don’t have to be small to be a Seeker.” That was why she knew she couldn’t be a Seeker. Even if it had only been small games at home, she still got distracted by watching what was going on by the goal rather than watch for the Snitch like she had been told to do to be part of the game.
Alicia was a little surprised when Charlie moved, and as he leaned forward, so did she, as if ready to hear some secret or what have you. His question had her shake her head. “Nuh uh,” she told him, looking down at her hands to hide the smirk on her lips, before she looked back up at him. “Oliver’s told me all about how you run the team, and I saw the schedules Nigel made for the Ravenclaw team this year. He’s dead thrilled about being Captain this year.” But that wasn’t important. The Gryffindor team was. “And I watched a lot of the practices last year, when I didn’t have homework.”
