CAROLINE COULDN'T BELIEVE IT. Suddenly the whole world started to blur out, only to find herself holding the very golden snitch that was now in the palm of her hand. A huge smile was plastered onto her face, as her blue eyes lit up, and then all of a sudden, she was drowned by the melodic noise of cheer and appreciation. She looked up and raised the item onto their sight, mere proof that she has won for the team, and for her house, especially. Deep down she also wished Helga was proud of her too, which would most probably be the case due to their house founder's personality.
As the young female seeker was soaking up all the voices, she couldn't help but think of her parents. How she wished that her mother and father were to see her right now. Especially mother. She thought to herself once more, that the sadness that was tugging onto her heart tempted her to wipe the beautiful smile off her face. "YESSS! THAT'S MY BEST FRIEND!" She heard the joyful screams of her best friend, Amara, along with her twin brother, Jack, who thankfully, got her out of her headspace in the middle of a celebration worthy of all happiness. She now smiled a weak smile, and waved to the crowd.
And as Caroline waved, she also felt eyes darted onto her. She looked down, and right below her, still on his broom, was none other than her opponent himself. She gave him a light smirk, while the Slytherin stared back in a not so distinguished manner, almost like he had no expression at all. It was typical of him, but Caroline couldn't help but feel a strong pang of emotion. She couldn't explain, but all she knew at the moment was she was going to go back to Hufflepuff's common room, to later on celebrate continuously about their win, which would later on bring them to party till the wee hours of the morning.

"HEY, HEY HEY! IS THAT THE HUFFLEPUFF CHAMPION I SEE?" A rather familiar voice welcomed Caroline into the Great Hall with her friends. It was Sirius Black, coming from the Gryffindor table as he stood up and wrapped his arms around the small figure of the young girl. Caroline smiled and giggled, hugging the older student back. "Yep, you're looking at her!" She pulls away and eyes him in a serious but joking manner. "Thanks, Sirius. It was a real showdown over there since I was against your very own brother."
Sirius took a deep breath and put both of his hands on his waist. "Ah, Regulus. Well I mean, it was nice to see him loose for a little while...since I mean, he's always been the perfect child if you know what I mean," The older Black smirked and winked at her. Caroline shook her head in response, along with a smug smile. Not a lot of people knew, but she and the older Black were close friends, and had a sibling type of bond.
