[HP] Can you be gentle with me

After breakfast, the three of them met with James and others, and headed to the court, stretching their hands over their heads to try to cover some rain, but the rain seemed to be pouring down now, and this behavior obviously had no effect. In the end, Tahlia Unable to bear the feeling of getting wet all over his body, he took out his wand and cast a waterproof spell on everyone. Although it was not completely waterproof, the effect was similar to that of a raincoat, which could somewhat help.

When she arrived at the stadium, Tahlia found that almost all the students were sitting separately according to the colleges. She waved helplessly at James and others, and walked in the completely opposite direction.

"I really don't understand why even the football game has to be so clearly..." In the wind and rain, Tahlia complained displeased.

Sirius shrugged. "Maybe I'm afraid of fighting, you know..." He thought of the previous World Cups, as if there were a lot of fanatical fans who got too excited and fought in groups after the game, and the scene was hot. "Can't underestimate wizards' enthusiasm for Quidditch..."

Snape snorted, this time he wasn't targeting Sirius, he was just bored with the behavior of those fanatics, but Sirius still turned black when he heard it.

He slowed down a bit, pulled away from Tahlia, and moved closer to Snape, speaking in a voice that only the two of them could hear, warning. "Snape, listen to me, I don't know what the hell you're up to now, but I'm warning you, you'd better not hurt her..." There was a pause. "No matter what agreement you have reached with her, if you do anything...anything that hurts her, I will never let you go."

Snape froze for a moment, but spoke quickly. "What's the meaning?"

"It's not interesting." Sirius walked forward again with a snort, put his hand on Tahlia's shoulder, and looked back at Snape as if showing off. Why, although the relationship between Snape and Tahlia has improved a lot, she still can't take Snape's shoulder Take it!

Snape looked at the fire in his heart from behind, and while he was surprised that he got angry so easily, his body went straight forward uncontrollably, and he pushed Sirius hard.

"What are you doing—"

Sirius was pushed forward and almost fell to the ground with his center of gravity unsteady, but fortunately he stabilized in the end, of course he let go of the hand holding Tahlia, and stared back fiercely. "Snape!" growled at Snape.

Although he had already stepped onto the stands, the ground was still full of muddy footprints from the heavy rain. If he really fell on the ground, he would have to go back to his room and change his clothes before his whole body was covered in mud.

Snape slowly brushed away the rain-soaked hair sticking to his face, and spoke slowly. "Slippery feet."

"you……"

Who the hell believed Snape was slippery! Sirius glared at Snape, but Snape looked back calmly.

"Okay," Tahlia said, pulling the two of them in front of and behind her to separate them. "Be careful walking in the rain..." she said, casting a glance behind Snape.

She also knew that Snape wasn't really slippery, but she couldn't figure out why he pushed Sirius on purpose, it seemed like they didn't have any special conflict just now, did they?

"Sirius," leaning forward to his ear. "Sorry, but we really can't prove that Severus pushed you on purpose..."

Sirius nodded slightly, didn't say anything more, and led Tahlia to find a seat to sit down together.

I have to say that the atmosphere before the Quidditch match was tense and lively. It didn't take long for several people to be infected with anticipation. Even Tahlia, who had no interest in the game, kept stretching her neck to see if the team had played.

Sirius chuckled. "Tahlia, you don't have to look at it this way to know when the team is out..."

"Why?" Tahlia asked, looking for the entrance for the team to enter. "Where did they all come from?"

"there."

Looking in the direction of Sirius' finger, Tahlia spotted an entrance in one corner of the court. "Ah, I see it."

Sirius nodded and pointed to the other side of the court, where there was also an entrance. "They will fly out of those two entrances later, so it should be obvious...Look, they're coming out!"

Seven green figures flew out from the entrance near them, and there were deafening cheers around them. Seven figures also flew out from the opposite entrance, but they were wearing scarlet ball gowns. In comparison, As if the cheers on the other side were louder, Tahlia noticed that most of Revenclaw's and Hufflepuff's students were also cheering for Gryffindor.

This is too unfair...

Squinting his eyes slightly, observing the red crowd on the opposite stand, he seemed to vaguely see James and the others. His iconic messy hair was still recognizable. At this moment, he was jumping up and down excitedly, even Remus couldn't hold back. Judging from Lily's helpless expression not far away, James' behavior should be classified as childish.

Tahlia laughed out loud, it seemed that James still couldn't grasp the way to attract Lily's favor...

"What's wrong?" Snape couldn't help asking when Tahlia laughed suddenly.

"Nothing." Tahlia said quickly.

If he had told him about James' behavior directly, he would have despised him even more... For the sake of her good friend's reputation, she automatically concealed it for him.

Snape didn't ask any more questions, and wasn't bothered by Tahlia's obviously perfunctory answer. She wasn't crying anyway, and since she was laughing, it probably wasn't a bad thing. His eyes turned to the two teams that were about to kick off.

The referee has already opened the box containing the three types of balls. First, he undid the lock of the Snitch. When the golden ball disappeared in an instant, he also loosened the belt that controlled the Bogut. The two black balls In an instant, he flew into the sky and circled around the players.

A whistle sounded, and the big red ball was thrown into the air.

Game start!

Tahlia's eyesight is not bad. Considering that she spends most of her time staring at the words in the book, it is already the limit to not wear glasses, but it is not good enough to see the Snitch on the huge court. , coupled with the weather, almost everyone is watching the game with squinted eyes.

We could only see the ball passing back and forth among the red and green figures, obviously most of them were in the hands of the green figures, and the score heard from the announcer was also that Slytherin was far ahead. Less than half an hour into the game, they already had 120 points An overwhelming victory over Gryffindor by 30 points.

The sound of cheering on the opposite side became a bit frustrating. Everyone was hoping that the Gryffindor seekers could catch the Snitch one step ahead of the opponent, and then they would turn defeat into victory. However, in the heavy rain, the Golden Snitch has still Nowhere to be seen, and if the Slytherins widen the gap again, their chances of winning will become slimmer and slimmer.

"...Sirius!" Tahlia exclaimed suddenly.

"how?"

"...Then, is that Lucius?" Tahlia asked with some uncertainty.

Lucius didn't look like someone who could play such an inelegant game, but she was sure she'd just caught a glimpse of one of the players shining brightly platinum in the brief flash of thunder.

"Oh, you said Malfoy..." Sirius said naturally. "He's on the team too, the Chaser, don't you know?"

Tahlia shook her head, the corners of her mouth twitching, she didn't expect that the man was really Lucius, it was really... not aristocratic.The appearance of Lucius with disheveled hair and wet body in the wind and rain silently appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help laughing again.

The two people on the side were already familiar with how many times Tahlia laughed inexplicably during the game, so they continued to watch the game without asking her what funny thing was going to come to her head.

Lucius was riding on the broom, suddenly his nose itch, and he almost didn't let go of the big red ball he was holding in his hand. He quickly clenched his arms, dodged one by one Gryffindor lions and continued to fly towards the opponent's goal. Odd's last year, next year he will quit the team, saying that this time he must firmly keep the Quidditch Cup that has lasted for many years, the broom flashed to the right, and instantly threw away the oncoming obstacle The player aimed at the ball frame on the right, but the action was as if to throw to the left.

The goalkeeper changed the direction of the pitch at the last moment, and it was too late for the Gryffindor goalkeeper to realize that there was a fraud. There were deafening cheers from the stands in the green block, 160 to 30...

He smiled, and gave the Gryffindor goalkeeper a contemptuous look. After all these years, he still hasn't learned to be smarter, and he will always be fooled by this obvious trick. What a stupid lion...

Instigate the broom, although now the ball has been exchanged and it is the opponent's turn to attack, but...he thinks they will get the ball back soon.

Sure enough, there was another burst of cheers, he didn't even catch up with his teammates, they had already recovered the ball and scored, 170 to 30... Another ball, another ball, even if the opponent catches the Snitch, they can't win the game !

Suddenly there were bursts of exclamations in the stands, Lucius quickly followed the eyes of everyone, and found that the Seekers of the two teams were already flying towards a certain place at full speed, it was the Snitch!

Lucius cursed in his heart, why did they appear at this time, if they were a minute or two later, they would definitely win. Now it seems that the seeker on the Gryffindor side found the golden ball first and was the first to win. The action was launched, and although the Slytherin players reacted immediately, they were still a little behind.

Gotta make some trouble.

Lucius ordered his teammates to continue to attack, and turned around with his broom, flying towards the direction of the two Seekers at full speed. His own broom had always been using the latest model, and his speed was absolutely guaranteed. As expected, he was chasing at full speed. The distance to the two people in front is getting shorter and shorter...

"Oh? Malfoy suddenly left his job as a Chaser and went straight to the Seekers...what's his plan?" said the announcer's voice.

The audience also noticed that Lucius was about to catch up with the Seeker. What did he want to do?Could it be that he also wanted to catch the Snitch?

When Lucius was already closely behind the two of them, he suddenly turned to the right, made a large circle, and took advantage of his speed to charge straight at the person in the red robe from the side.

The audience was all nervously staring at the trio who were about to get entangled, obviously Malfoy was about to run into the Gryffindor Seeker...

At the moment before the impact, Gryffindor hurriedly leaned to the left in order to evade the oncoming Lucius, and slammed on the brakes. Lucius passed in front of him with a whooping sound. If he was slower for a second, he would probably hit him up.

And because of such a pause, the Slytherin Seeker directly widened the distance, throwing the Gryffindor lion away from him. He smiled triumphantly back, stretched out his right hand, grabbed it and wanted to The escaped golden ball jumped into the sky, held it high, and showed it to everyone.

Beep──

The referee called the match over and the Slytherins won 320-30.

The Slytherins were instantly excited, and they couldn't see their usual reserved appearance. They all jumped up and down wildly and cheered happily. A group of people rushed into the field and lifted Seeker and Lucius up high. With such a big gap in the score, if the next championship match against Revenclaw has not won them by at least 100 points, then they will still win the Quidditch Cup even if they lose.

Lucius, who was lifted up, was obviously not used to such passionate physical touch, he froze at first, but he was also in an extremely happy mood, so he didn't stop them from lifting him off the court.

"Let's go." Sirius gave Tahlia a gentle tug.

"Yeah." Tahlia nodded, but found that Sirius was in a hurry, and his eyes kept drifting backwards. "What's wrong?"

Sirius didn't answer, just urged the two to leave quickly, but...

"Sirius."

The moment he heard the voice, Sirius froze in place, turned around slowly and mechanically, and put on a perfect smile. "Narcissa...cousin."

This was the first time Tahlia saw Narcissa not appearing with Lucius. Although she often saw Lucius alone, every time she met Narcissa, there was always Lucius by her side. What was the point of her appearing alone to stop Sirius? Is it important? Tahlia remembered that since Sirius didn't respond to Narcissa's invitation to have lunch with them, he wouldn't stop Sirius on the road.

"Come with me." Narcissa smiled. "I'm looking for you."

"What's the matter?" Sirius asked stiffly.

"Nature is the important thing..." Narcissa smiled at Tahlia, Snape and the others as she said. "I suppose you don't mind leaving first?" she asked. "Sirius will follow after a while..."

Tahlia didn't want her to take Sirius alone, she always thought it would be something bad, but Snape grabbed her sleeve.

"Let's go, she's his cousin, what else will she do to him..." He said in a loud voice, apparently deliberately for Narcissa to hear.

Narcissa didn't say anything, still smiling, waiting for Sirius to walk towards her.

Snape pushed Sirius forward a little, and whispered before he could say anything in protest. "You can rest assured that I won't let Tahlia have anything to do." Momentarily made him shut up, glanced at them one last time, and obediently walked forward.

Narcissa pulled Sirius past, turned away from the crowd, and gradually walked away.

"Severus, why did you let Sirius follow her like this?" Tahlia asked with some displeasure.

Snape grabbed her and followed carefully. "Pretend to obey first, and then follow."

"Oh──" Tahlia realized now, following Snape stalking behind the two of them.

Narcissa led Sirius into a small classroom.

Tahlia and the two approached on tiptoe, put their ears close to the door, and heard voices coming from inside.

"...Aunt Walburgar has warned you more than once, Sirius!"
