The match against Ravenclaw had been unusually hard. It had looked for a while that their team wouldn't win. They were so far behind. Of course, that hadn't been the fault of Sirius. He'd already managed to knock one of the chasers off his broom and hit another one hard. No, he was certainly on his game, but it seemed that the rest of the team was taking a holiday or something. Sirius was competitive. He wanted to win, he needed to win. The problem was that one beater couldn't carry the game. The chasers needed to step up and Emmeline needed to catch the snitch before the Ravenclaw seeker.
By the end of the game, Gryffindor had been able to close the gap and even catch up. But catch up was all they could do. Hearing the sound of the announcer tell everyone the snitch had been caught, Sirius closed his eyes. He couldn't look. He heard cheers erupt and opened his eyes cautiously to see Emmeline Vance holding up the tiny golden snitch. He let out a sigh of relief sent a smile her way. Gryffindor had won, by 150 points even.
After showering and changing, Sirius left the boys locker room and headed toward the girls. He stood outside the door and leaned against the wall of the stands as he watched the girls walk out, one at a time. Emmeline had yet to step out, but if he remembered everyone correctly between the two teams, there should only be one girl left. Emmeline.
