"it's not worth it, super boring," he half mumbled and half grumbled towards the passing students who merely shot him a confused glance and kept on their way. probably second or third years, the rush of the game had yet to wear off on them. kicking a pebble wedged beneath his shoe, fletcher continued walking.
when he was a third year, and he'd considered trying out for the quidditch team. the whole game looked so fascinating and thrilling, everything which fletcher lived for it seemed. he'd even gone out a few extra times after his classes with his broom just to practice his flying skills. but of course, he just had to get sick on the day of try outs and missed his opportunity. after that his motivation to try out in the future all but disappeared and his interest in the game slowly started to decrease. the bigger games, such as the world cup were far more intense and exciting. he'd been to one last year with his uncle and while he'd cheered on one of the teams, his silly uncle had only sat there looking as bored as possible. while fletcher would never admit to having attributes similar to his uncle, there were definitely a few.
fletcher stopped at the sight of a familiar blonde a little ways away. a smirk etched itself on his face and he considered simply passing by and saving himself from the usual disruption the girl seemed to always cause when around him. but, he was bored anyway and she was always a good source of fun. plus he couldn't really deny it, he had a sort of thing for her which he'd yet to have with anyone else. this was rather problematic though, since as soon as he felt like he was making some good advances with her, she disappeared. he'd call it a taming of the shrew scenario, but that would imply she was wild and perhaps crazy. she really wasn't any of those things, except perhaps a little bit wild.
making his way over to her quietly, fletcher slid an arm around the blonde and lifted an eyebrow, "hey there beautiful." she was better than this, he knew. but he liked to have a little fun anyway.[/div][/style]
