It was six o'clock in the evening. The sun was well on it's way down, casting long shadows over the now deserted Quidditch pitch. 'Official' team practice had ended half an hour ago. Yet here Cian stood, broom in hand. Today's practice had not been quite as rigorous as he would have hoped, so he was hoping to squeeze a bit more work in before someone came along to boot him off the field.
He'd run into a bit of snag, however; he was a beater, y'see. As soon as he let the bludgers out and hopped on his broom, the iron balls would both be gunning for him. Now, he was good, but he wasn't that good. Not yet, anyway. Ideally, he needed someone to protect, and someone to aim for. But he was alone. He huffed, frowning at the rattling box box at his feet, the one currently holding the bludgers.

Nix stood beside the pitch with her wand in one hand and a broom order form in her other, she had the form filled in and signed at the bottom and now she wait waiting on the one player of her team to leave the pitch so she could get in a little extra training time but it seemed he had he same idea. She curled the bit of paper up in her hand and then walked back through the pitch gates and heard the squeak and announce her arrival as she walked on to the pitch and nodded to the player still on the pitch ,"you know you shouldn't really be here after practise is over mate, you got a reason to be down here?" she asked before looking about for the nearest broom cupboard

Cian turned at the squeak of someone entering the pitch, and was surprised to see Nix. He shouldn't have been surprised, really; practice hadn't ended too long ago, and she was captain. It made sense for her to put in some extra time. At her question, a smirk played over his lips, and he shrugged. "Just felt I could use some more work. Practice wasn't as rigorous as I would've liked." he replied. He wasn't completely exhausted, so obviously they hadn't worked hard enough. Clearly, he thought he could do better.

She wasn't going to admit it, but quidditch practice was extremely awkward for her today. For one, the captain was not only a friend of her's but she had recently stollen the girl's crush. There was no denying the anger Nix had, and Lita couldn't blame her, but she honestly didn't care. She had won in the end, and Hugo and her had much more of a past and connection than him and Nix. It was definitely a situation that she didn't want to go through again though.
Lita had planned on leaving right after practice, running up to her dorm and changing into something much more comfortable. However, she was so irritated with how practice went and seeing as Hugo was in class, she needed to run off some steam. And that was exactly what she was going to do, she had her iPod ready (wrapped around her forearm in it's case), and she was in her usual running attire, which consisted of a pink sports bra, black baggy capris, and pink tennis shoes. As she made her way on to the field, she was in the process of placing one earbud in her ear as she heard two voices that she recognized clearly. Rolling her eyes, she walked past Nix and smirked, "You really don't have a say as to who's on the field as long as no one has it booked, Nix, and you know that." Turning around to face her, she walked backwards, pulling her hair up into the usual curly messy pony tail.

Nix rolled her eyes and then narrowed them at her beater ,"oh trust me, if you want harder training I am all too happy to help you out and get it done" she said with a smirk as she walked past him and then she felt the air change and spotted lita jog last her and she curled her hands in to fists for a moment as she spoke before dipping her head quickly ,"noted" she said sharply and harshly before walking past her and towards the broom cupboard. She took out her wand from her inner robe pocket and tapped it on the lock of the cupboard and she heard something click and the lock fell away in to her open and waiting hand below it and the door swung open

Cian grinned at his captain's pointed reply. If pissing her off meant harder practices, he'd do it. He was a competitive sort; he didn't just want to beat the other teams, he wanted to crush them. It wasn't that the Gryffindor team was lacking, but there was always room for improvement. The way he saw it, practice harder, play better. His teammates may hate him for it, but they'd be thanking them when they won the cup.
Things got interesting as another familiar face jogged into view. He knew the girl as Lita, their team's seeker. He'd heard the rumors, so their hostile exchange didn't come as a surprise; there was never a want for drama at Hogwarts. Cian didn't understand the fight over this particular guy; he himself was way better than some goody two shoes head boy. The guy didn't even play Quidditch! Ah well, it was their business, even if it was ridiculous. As long as it didn't effect their playing, he was fine.
"Hey Lita. I see you came to join us in some extra practice." he said, tone joking. He did hope she'd pull up a broom and join in, so to speak. The more the merrier.

Nix rolled her eyes as she heard Cain start to talk to lita and she leaned in to the broom closet and stress rummaging through the different brooms. "why don't you date that one as well and Hugo and James ,it's not like you have any morals or compassion or guilt" she muttered darkly as her fingers felt a cut in one of the school brooms and she nodded to herself and then tugged it out and slid the lock back on to the door and then tapped her wand on the top of it, there was a loud whirring sound and then a small click and then nix nodded again and walked over to the her team mates ,"now if your one of these win or die guys, then I warn you, one comes hand in hand with the other" she said with a smile ,ignoring lita totally

Realizing that she wasn't going to get to run any time soon, Lita paused her iPod and pulled her ear buds out of her ears and around her neck. She placed her hands on her hips and shifted her weight to one side. Come to join for extra practice? She smirked at him, a soft chuckle escaping her lips. He was cute with his joking tone and happy demeaner. Her dark eyes shifted to Nix who was rummaging through the broom closet before finally come back to society with a broom in her hand. Lita raised on eyebrow at her as she completely ignored her but continued to talk to Cain. Of course she would.... This ought to be fun, she thought to herself before speaking up some toward Cain, "I would join, but I'm far too much fun. And as we well know, Nix is a fun sucker." She winked at him before smirking smuggly at Nix. They were good friends with quite the love/hate relationship. But it always made for some good conversations as well as situations.

Nix felt her wand buzz at her in her robe pocket, how she wished she could take it out and simply hex the dammed girl again. She shook her head and lifted one leg up and kicked it over her broom and then tightened her grip on it and kicked off from the grind hard and shot in to the air. She couldn't wait until her firebolt was finished editing at tains shop, she and him had thought of some ways to make a few changes to the broom to make it steer better and move faster which meant she would have the best broom ever and it wasn't even on the Market because she had designed it herself, how she'd love to see litas face when she walked onto the pitch with that in her hands
