quidditch [accidentals] (Open)

[Ripley Finch-Fletchley]

-crowds screaming-
-the sound of thunder crackling up in the sky-
-trying to watch for the chasers-
-to block the quaffle from going through one of the three rings-
-not something Gryffindor needed to hear-
-those bells go off signaling as a quaffle passes through a golden ring-
-and that was what Ripley was there for-
-keeping the bells from going off-

-but then again when you get hit by a bludger that won't do much-
-and now she was being rushed to the hospital wing-
-oh goody goody-
-sighs lightly-
-sits up slightly as they try to move her from the stretcher to the bed-
-groans slightly-

I'm alright. 'Onestly.

-sighs-
-is ignored-
-sits back propped on pillows-
-thinks about it-
-lets the healer works on her arm-
-sighs slightly-
-hears it's only sprained-
-nods-
-sits back-
-hoping she isn't to attacked-
-by random Gryffindors-
-seeing if she's alright-
-or Slytherins taunting her-

[Colter Potter]

-match finally ended after Ripley was taken away-
-the team finished the match with not the best results-
-not having a keeper made things kind of difficult-
-but they had not lost by too much-
-there was still a chance of them winning if they won their next match-
-but it wasn't the match that made the 16 year old take off at a sprint-
-once Ripley had been taken away he hadn't had the will to catch the snitch-
-now with it over he could finally go check up on her-
-he had seen the bludger hit her-
-and from that moment on he had been a wreck-

-reaching the hospital wing he ran inside-
-slowing down only when the mediwitch scowled at him-
-he gave her a sheepish grin-
-before moving over to the bed Ripley was lying in-
-he looked at her and she didn't look too beat up-
-he could see her arm wrapped up and frowned-
-taking a seat at the edge of her bed he said nothing for a moment-
-and simply kissed her arm lightly-
-he hated seeing her hurt-
-she was one of his good friends and also the girl he was madly in love with-
-he would never tell her that part but-
-it was true-

"Are you alright Rip? You scared the shit out me."

-he took a deep breath-
-finally he was able to begin calming down a little-
-seeing that she was okay and didn't appear to hurt-
-he didn't feel the need to freak out-
-and he knew if he didn't she would yell at him-
-and tell him he was being stupid-
-she always took her injuries so lightly-
-and that was something he admired about her-
-but sometimes he wished she would let him fuss over her-

[Ripley Finch-Fletchley]

-she looked up as Colter ran in-
-and got a stern look from the mediwitch-
-and laughed slightly-
-then smiled as he cam over to her and just sat there-
-she raised an eyebrow as he kissed her arm and smiled-

Colter...

-raised an eyebrow as he said she scared him-
-smiles lightly at him-

I'm fine. I promise.

-she moved slightly and looked at him-
-grabs his hand lightly-
-thinks over it-
-grabs his hand and smiled-
-laughs-

Please don't start fretting over me.

-grins-

[Colter Potter]

"You always say you are fine. One of these days you are going to get really really hurt and that will be the day that I decide not to fret and you are going to get upset and..."

-he stopped talking and just looked at her for a moment-
-sometimes when he started going, he couldn't stop-
-and normally he ended up just sounding stupid-
-so after a few moment of jibbering he was able to control himself-
-he held on to her hand tightly and sighed softly-
-sometimes he thought he was the one who should be a girl-
-his mother always told him that he was the sweetest boy she knew-
-and he was her little prince charming-
-to this day he remained the same way and girls seemed to notice-
-which was why he always made friends so easily-

"I'm not going to fret, I promise."

-he did a few more deep breaths to stay calm-
-he wasn't going to break his promise to her-
-even though the idea was really looking quite ideal-
-instead he settled for nudging her over-
-and lying down beside her, still holding her hand-

"You know some people might get the wrong idea. I hope the mediwitch isn't one of them."

-he laughed softly and pulled her close to him-
-being with Ripley was always an adventure-
-she was one of those girls that was just so different-
-she acted quite the girl at times, but she was tough as nails-
-plus she always made him feel appreciated and needed-
-and was a good lookout when he was in the need of a prank-

"So you going to be ready for practice tomorrow?"

-his tone was light and he was hoping she'd say no-
-but knowing Ripley she would be out there on her broom tomorrow-
-ready to practice with the team-
-she was one of his star players and there never was a time he regretted her joining-
-except maybe today, because she made him a wreck-

[Ripley Finch-Fletchley]

Colter calm down.

-she laughed lightly and smiled at him-
-she watched as he started to try and calm down again-
-she thought about it and smiled-
-thinks about it-

Good.

-she couldn't help but smile at him-
-she found it sweet how he was always freaking out over the little things-
-she had to admit he was the best friend she had-
-and the only guy one she had that was sweet enough to freak over the little things-
-scoots over as he nudged her and smiled as he laid down next to her-

I doubt it. I'm in here enough and your constantly in here with me, they know we're just friends.

-nods-
-she curled into him careful not to hit her bad arm-
-she gave a small sigh and thinks about it-
-bites bottom lip lightly-

Yup.

-nods slightly-
-thinks about it-
-nods and thinks about it-

Why? Going to try and replace me?

-laughs-

[Colter Potter]

"I am calm!"

-he looked at her a little sullen-
-and crossed his arms across his chest-
-there were times that he overreacted and he knew he was right now-
-but darn it he had every right to act this way-
-she was one of his closest friends-
-and also a member of his team-
-it was his duty as captain to worry about his players-
-okay so that definitely took a back seat to the first-
-but still-

-he began to plat with her hair as she curled closer to him-
-it was true-
-they always seemed to be in here together when she got hurt-
-and it was the same ordeal each and every time-
-colter would freak out-
-ripley would tell him to calm down-
-and they would laugh at his antics after she was out-

"True. Sometimes I feel like I am your mother, sitting with you in the hospital all the time."

-okay being her mother would really be something strange-
-for one he was a male-
-and two he was head over heels in love with the girl-
-oh and had been for as long as he could remember-
-but shhhhhh-

-pokes her in cheek softly-
-and smiles down at her, shaking his head-
-there was no way he was going to replace her-
-but he could play along couldn't he?-

"I was thinking about it. I mean that way we would have a keeper who stayed in the whole game."

-he gave her a crooked little grin to show he was just kidding-
-there was no need to get ripley mad at him-
-that would be the day he died-

"But if it keeps you safe and off the pitch for just a little while...I should actually consider it."

[Ripley Finch-Fletchley]

"Your not acting it!"

-she couldn't help but laugh-
-and ran her good hand through her hair-
-he looked so much like a little kid when he got so pouty-
-it was amusing-

-she shivered slightly when he started playing with her hair-
-just the feeling of his fingers on her head caused that-
-people playing with her hair was just something that did that to her-
-she never knew why-
-never really questioned it either-
-never saw a reason too-

"Ha. I can't help it I'm a klutz. And you my mom? Thats sort of disturbing Colter."

-she laughed lightly and thought about it-
-she wiggled her nose and reached up a hand to push a strand of hair out of his eyes-
-she laughed as he poked her in the cheek and heard him and slapped him lightly on the arm-

Hey!

-then she saw the smile and knew he was joking-
-she laughed lightly-

I'm fine. It was that idiot beater on that team that caused it. He tried hitting one of the chasers and hit me instead. Gah.

-she sighed slightly and laid back into colter-
-sighs-

[Colter Potter]

-he eyed her for a moment and decided she really did seem okay-
-it was this realization that finally allowed him to truly calm down-
-he smiled at her and realized she was a lot stronger then she appeared-
-she was always so perfect-
-okay there went the being normal bit once more-
-he hated how he always seemed to obsess over her-
-it was as if he became putty whenever she was around him-
-however he knew he was lucky she was a bit slow on the noticing-
-for had ripley known that he had a crush on her things would change-
-and he never wanted such a thing to happed-

"Yeah yeah, I know. I was just thinking that. But seriously I am the one who is always here with you."

-he nudged her very lightly being careful of her arm-
-sometimes he wondered why she spent so much time with him-
-but he knew the answer immediately-
-she saw him as a brotherly figure, as the one who would always protect her-
-and just happened to adore her-
-but the latter part did not matter, because she would never know-
-unless a certain best friend of his ever opened his mouth-
-but if that were to happen, there would be so serious issues-

"Oh hush you know I was just joking...and that hurt!"

-he held his arm and pretended to whine a little-
-faking an injury was a sure fire way to gain a little sympathy-
-but he wasn't quite sure if it would work with ripley-
-sometimes people surprised you-

"I know, I tried to get him kicked out after that, but they said it was an accident and thus nothing could be done. Didn't help us win any though..."

-he gave a soft little sigh and shook his head-
-to say he wasn't disappointed that they had lost was like saying a dog doesn't get fleas-
-he hated losing matches and losing because their keeper was injured, made it worse-
-he shrugged a little, more to himself then her and focused back on her-

"You make sure you feel 100% before coming to practice, because I refuse to allow an injured player to practice."

-he gave her his best stern look-
-but it was shattered as she leaned back into him-
-then it was replaced with a pure look of joy and comfort-

[Ripley Finch-Fletchley]

-she laughed lightly and nodded-
-she knew it was true-
-he was always here for her-
-he seemed to always being with her when she needed it-
-and he always included her in his and Mae's pranks-
-he was just always there like her guardian angel-

"I don't know what I'd do with out you Colter."

-it was true-
-she had siblings-
-but for some reason the fact that Colter was with her more-
-it was just a special bond the two had-
-they were best friends-
-and as said before she doesn't see how she'd survive with out him-
-he protected her when she needed it, and fretted over the littlest things when it came to her-

"Sorry but don't joke like that."

-laughs and leans up-
-kissing his arm lightly a few times where she hit it-

There all better.

-she laughed lightly at the way they acted-
-like little kids most of the time-
-she smiled lightly-
-she watched as he started to get all sullen-
-she thought about it and looked down-

Colter...

-sighs-
-it was her fault-

I'm sorry. I should have seen that bludger coming, I should have dodged it.

-looks back at him-
-sighs-
-nods slightly-

I'll be fine.
