January 8th 1977
Regulus woke up on the day of the first quitich game of the new year.
He was so excited, he knew he could do this. He had been training a lot before Christmas. Christmas.
He shook that thought out of his head.
He threw on his cold quitich gear and headed down to the great hall.
At the slytherin table he was eating alone. Snape, barty, and Avery had not even apologized for leaving him there. What a bunch of tossers
Regulus was a bit nervous, it was a griffindoor vs. slytherin game. That means he would have to face Sirius and James....James.
"Bloody hell" said regulus suddenly getting overwhelmed.
Just then the marauders walked into the great hall. James and Sirius in there quitich unforims strutting down the walkway. (An: 'My father didn't strut' yes. Yes he did Harry)
Everyone at the griffindoor table started cheering them on. Regulus rolled his eyes and continued to eat his breakfast.
——————————————
The slytherins flew out of the sky. Flint was up first. "Don't mess up or their will be consequences" he told the younger black in the air. Regulus nodded keeping a straight face the whole time. He wanted to win too. He wanted to see the smirks whipped off of his brother and James' face.
The griffindoors flew into the air in a pile of red. James was up and stood in the chasers staring position.
"Now I want a clean fair match. I will not hesitate to give out penalties." Said madam hooch.
Everyone nodded. The coach released the balls and they were off.
Regulus flew up high trying to find the snitch. It was pretty unlikely that he would find it now but who knows.
James caught the quaffel first and was raising twards the hop. "And Potter scores! That's 10 to 0." Said lockheart the commentator.
You could see James smiling from a mile away.
Sirius was hitting blugers left and right. Mostly protecting James (only because he was the best player and definitely not his best friend.) but he helped other players out to.
Suddenly a buluger came fly towards regulus and probably would have knocked him out if it wasn't for Sirius hitting it out of the way. Regulus just nodded at Sirius and mouthed a thank you.
"I just wanted a fair game" said Sirius smiling.
He flew away back into the game.
"Looks like black has defended younger black from getting hit with a bluger." Said lockheart over the speaker.
Regulus was laughing when suddenly he spotted the little gold ball. He started zooming towards it. "Regulus black has spotted the snitch!" Said lockheart
Regulus was now near the ground. The other secker had gotten hit in the arm by a bluger, so it was only him and the snitch.
His fingers were miliameters next to the snitch. Regulus reached out more and tumbled off his broom, catching the snitch.
"Regulus Black has caught the snitch! Looks like slytherin- oh! Griffindoor has won the game due to the points they got! All thanks to your amazing chasers!" Said lockheart.
Regulus' face went mad with rage. He caught the snitch. He should have won.
Regulus marched off the pitch looking cool and cloected.
Once he got to his dorm he screamed into his pillow. He did a deep breath and rationalized with himself. They won fair and square. He said to himself. Yea I guess that's true.

The Griffindoor common room was bursting with noise. They had music and there was so many people dancing. A lot of people were drunk and by a lot I mean Peter and Sirius.
They both acted like they could handle a lot of drinks but they really couldn't.
Remus on the other hand....well let's just say he could have a lot of drinks. James rarely drank and when he did, he didn't get blackout drunk.
Sirius was stumbling up the stairs, pulling Remus with him. He pushed him against the door and they started snogging.
Remus pulled away " Sirius your really drunk. I'm not going to kiss you when you aren't in control." He said
"Awww remmy what a buzzkill" said Sirius.
Remus chuckled and kissed his check. "Yup"
He guided him over to the bed and layed down with him. "Goodnight padfoot"
"Night love" said Sirius before passing out.
Bloody hell he called me love! Merlin I love this boy. Remus thought before passing out himself.
