>POV SARAH<
Today is the day. Oh good God, that sounded so scary.

For weeks Gryffindor Team has been waiting for our first match, which is against Ravenclaw, and trust me, throughout those STORMS, I'm gonna chop my left arm of if we don't win.... Or maybe not, I'm putting my hopes to high again. Merlin. Help. Me. Now.

I walked to the great hall, wearing my Quidditch uniform with Albus, and watched as Mia and Rose put their thumbs up just to give me support. Okay, now I'm scared. It's just, I have been watching Quidditch ever since I was three and even shout at the idiots who can't keep a ring, but now, I think I'm gonna be the one being shouted at. I have been practicing hard, even in my dreams, and just everytime I play, a Dementor always come in the field. Luckily McGonagall told us the field will be DEMENTOR-FREE... But I hope she isn't lying.

As I ate my 1/4 piece of toast, Rose kept on encouraging me to eat, honestly I now feel how Albus felt during his first match. "Come on, Sarah. Please eat. You're gonna starve." Mia said, trying to stash in the strip of bacon into my mouth. "I'm not hungry. When my tummy is full and I'm nervous, things get a bit... Woozy. So please... just don't." I told them, Mia pouted and faced towards Albus.

"Albus, come on. You encourage her to eat!" Mia whisper-shouted, "if I encourage her, she's just gonna get MORE nervous. Just let the girl be." he replied, smiling at me, the guy is very sweet. "Thanks Albus." I mouthed, and stood up. "Where're you going?" Rose asked, "to the field. I'm gonna practice a bit. See ya" and ran towards the Quidditch field.

But as high as my hopes that I thought I was practicing alone, the Ravenclaws were already there. So I sat at a bench, and stroked my broom, what? I got nothing to do!

"Hey Sarah." Samantha Chang said, sitting beside me, a Ravenclaw. "Hey, part of the team?" I asked, she shook her head and stared at my broom. "Cool. Our team has bad brooms. Believe me, I've tried on them. Oh, I better be off, the boys'll get angry. Good luck!" Samantha said, waving as she ran towards the opposite bleachers.

"Hi." Albus' voice said, as he sat at my left.
"Nervous?"
"You had to ask."
"Don't worry. But I'm NOT nervous"
"Why? You get nervous ever since your first match, whats the difference?"
"It's because you're playing with me. And I know we're gonna win."

I guess I flushed rose pink, 'cause Albus couldn't help but throw a fit of giggles. But Madame Hooch's whistle echoed through the whole field, and people were filling in.

Lets do this.

~~•~~•~~•~~•~~•~~•~~•~~•

As we all mounted our brooms and lept to the light, I saw Rose and Hagrid waving, well I can see Hagrid better than the tiny Rose.

When we went to our positions, I focused on the Snitch as Madame Hooch released it. It flew around both Seekers and sped a different way. Just the second the whistle blew, we all sped around quickly. I flew high above the match to see whats happening, watching the match and trying to find the glimpse of gold at the same time. I even laughed as dad looked upwards and waved a hand at me, and of course, I waved back.

Did I mention that Hugo Weasley is also apart of the team? Hah, Gryffindor chanted Weasley Is Our King like the 5th time now, and never gets old.

The Ravenclaw Seeker, Marmilda Dingus was focusing on the goal, I thought I just saw the Snitch down near the Hufflepuff bleachers. As smooth as I can be, trying not to attract Marmilda's attention, I sped towards it. I think it took her a matter of minutes to see that I was already gone. She was a meter behind me, and I stretched out my hand.

We both chased towards the Snitch, and when I saw it coming towards the teacher's bleacher, I stopped, looking up, it was above my head. I flew towards it, and finally trapped it. But just as I stretched my hand out, I felt weak... Happiness... Strenght... Gone.

>POV SEVERUS<
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! This IS NOT GOOD. "Minerva!" I yelled at her, seeing her shaking, "I may not reach her!" she stuttered, good glory, what kind of a headmistress is this if she can't even protect her own students?! "Do something!" Flitwick shouted, I grabbed my wand from my cloak and thought of the happiest memory of my life.

"EXPECTO PATRONUM!" But it wasn't me, it was Sarah.

The lion lept out of her wand with a ray of light coming behind it. Everybody was shocked to see the patronus, even Minerva. Sarah didn't hesitate twice and flew toward the Snitch, holding my fingers crossed.... SHE CAUGHT IT!

>POV SARAH<
I-I-I-I- I DID IT! MY FIRST MATCH!

I let out a laugh, as the whole Gryffindor bleacher stood up and applauded. I couldn't stop smiling, and saw as dad was beaming at me. "We won!" Hugo Weasley shouted from the rings, I hopped off my broom, and saw the Snitch in my hand. Hands down, this has got to be one of the best highlights of my life.

As we were all having fun in the common room, I had the slightest feeling to go out. And guess what.

Dad was there.

Is it just me or do it's a bit weird of how he might have that thing with Occulemency even through walls.

"Dad..." I breathed, his arms crossed, arching a eyrebrow at me and smirking. "So, carried your wand during your match, nice thinking." he complimented, oh please, anybody could've done that. "Well, yeah. Thanks. But I'm gonna be worried about facing Slytherin." I told him, smiling. "Well, my daughter is a Gryffindor and I'm head of Slytherin. But may the best house win?" he teased, better? Better = G r y f f i n d o r.
(But actually I am a Slytherin!😆
--SarahLilySnape)

"May the better house win." I replied, smirking deviously. He put a stray strand of my hair behind my ear, making me smile.

But as I went back to the common room, the party hasn't die down. So I went to the dorms. But as I was about to open my trunk, my wand rolled under my bed, dammit.

I stared under it, and saw my wand. I grabbed it, but thought I saw another thing under the bed. "Lumos.", the tip of my wand glowed, and I grabbed the object. It wasn't heavy, nor light. It was a red notebook. With GRYFFINDOR marked on it.
