Fourth YearDom had always preferred to play beater but the team needed another chaser, so he was happy to do it. Their captain, Ethan Johnson, was a chipper fellow and often made Dom roll his eyes. The guy was a brilliant player, but he was a little too upbeat for Doms taste. Still, the guy knew how to give a rousing pep talk. The game was against Gryffindor, which was always fun. The Gryffindors could be vicious rivals, which Dom approved of, and his favorite rival was on the team. Lily Potter. The two of them had been rivals since their flying class days first year up to the present. They would banter and scold each other, but somehow it was all in good fun. He didn't have fun with many people, but this little rival with Lily had always been good for a laugh. They often targeted each other, even if they weren't necessarily told to do so. This game, however, Lily had nearly knocked him into the stands. If she had succeeded, he could have been seriously hurt. Maybe even decapitated! Needless to say, he was not amused. He wasn't PLANNING on saying anything to her about it, but he was walking past their teams locker room when he saw that she was alone in there and somehow his feet carried him to her. "What the hell was that, Potter?" he demanded, dropping his own quidditch bag on the ground. lily luna potter

@dominic Another victory in the books! As far as Lily concerned, the events of the match didn’t really matter as long as the won. To be frank, she was so caught up in the adrenaline and momentum of winning that the entirety of the match was a haze still. There was a celebration to be had in the common room after, since it was a relatively big win over Ravenclaw. She was by no means the hero of the match, so she sent off her teammates with high-fives before returning to the locker room to get changed. Getting adrenaline rush after adrenaline rush was definitely going to take a toll on her tiny body tomorrow, and sleeping wasn’t going to happen at all tonight. The lions were going to be partying until dawn, and she was going to be making sure of it!
With the last teammate gone, Lily was alone, and it was totally depressing. The excitement had gone off with the rest of the Gryffindors. Going as fast as possible, she stripped off her Quidditch gear, flew through the showers, and then practically jumped into her regular clothes. Now all that was left was to lock up her broom and pack her gear into her bag. Then she could go haywire in the common room. She could feel the excitement from the game just starting to die down, which wasn’t fine with her.
Then the door to the locker room was ripped open and Lily jumped up onto the bench that her bag was on. Dominic, who she had just beat, had come storming in, yelling about something she apparently did. “Uhhhh…we won?” That had scared the bejeezus out of her! Who stormed into locker rooms like that? On second thought, she had done that before, so maybe this was karma returning the favor. But that was first year and the Slytherin locker room, and because she had been absolutely enthralled with Scorpius Malfoy. Only to aggravate her brother, of course. That was all done with. Her eyes still wide from the sudden shock of Dominic bursting in, Lily finally hopped off of the bench. “Remind me again?” she pleaded, batting her eyes a little. That always worked on angry people.

Lily jumped up onto the bench, typical of her. She didn't seem to recall what had happened, and that almost made him back off. Almost. He narrowed his eyes at her and stepped up to the bench, still on the ground, so she was quite a bit taller than him at the moment.Then she hopped off the bench and he stepped back to make room. Was she... batting her eyelashes at him? He rolled his eyes and folded his arms over his chest, "oh, I don't know, maybe the fact that you almost get my head knocked off," he growled, raising an eyebrow at her. He took a step toward her, which would probably cause her to back up into the bench a bit. "Do you actually want me dead, Lily? I thought this was all just fun and games," he nodded toward her, in reference to their forever long rivalry. Well, it had seemed like forever. Really, he had nothing against Lily Potter. They were both Chasers on opposing teams and had basically centered their whole relationship on that. He didn't even know that much about her, in all honesty. He knew that they were both fair fliers and fair chasers, but he didn't really know anything else. He hadn't really cared to. Dom always found ways to get reactions out of people and stuck with them. Like with Kinsey, she was easy to terrorize and her strong emotions and reactions always entertained him. Like Liona, who was so clearly infatuated with him and he loved to get a rise out of her. And Lily, the Chaser. lily luna potter

@dominic Dominic didn’t look all that impressed with her attempt at getting him to remind her what this was all about. He had stepped up to the bench while she was standing on it, but backed off immediately once she came back off of it. Oh he was such a funny guy. Lily tilted her head to the side curiously as he mentioned that she almost knocked his head off during the match. “Dommy, you’re remembering that all wrong,” she stepped towards him, placing a hand up onto his shoulder. “That was Abby sending a bludger your way, and you hit your head on one of the beams in the stands.” Lily nodded her head. Totally a lie, because now she remembered what had happened during the match. She didn’t think flying in front of him to steal a Quaffle pass constituted as almost knocking his head off, or trying to kill him for that matter. “But isn’t that part of the fun and games?” she repeated his second sentence. “Almost dying gets that little surge right here,” she poked the center of his stomach, “and spreads it all over. I think it’s awesome.” Only her opinion on this really mattered. She was an adrenaline junky for a reason, and a little dangerous activity while zooming around the pitch had never actually hurt anyone before. Her broom was almost in control.

Her head tilted to the side, something he had seen her do before. Dommy? Dommy? DOMMY? He felt his blood starting to boil, but at the same time he was taken aback by her hand on his shoulder. Had Lily ever touched him not in a match before? Abby? What? Abby had nothing to do with that. She was lying to him! He gritted his teeth, but let her keep up her act for now. She mentioned it being part of the fun and games, almost dying. She poked his stomach, mentioning that adrenaline rush that came with almost death and he couldn't deny that she was right. It was exhilarating but... wait, wait, was she really getting to him right now!? She continued but he wasn't listening to the last sentence. His hand shot up to catch her wrist, and pulled her hand away from his stomach. "Still," he said, his voice in a low growl, his eyes fixated on hers. Classic Dom, overly intense about something silly. "Doesn't mean I won't pay you back for it next time, kid," he narrowed his eyes and his other hand reached over to poke her in the stomach, "and then you'll get that feeling you love so much. Deal?"lily luna potter

@dominic Oooooh boy that was a great reaction he had in his face when she called him Dommy. That was hereby his new nickname from her. That or Triple D. She was kinda torn between the two of them. Each served their own purpose she supposed. Dommy was her pet name to get under his skin. Triple D was more like her ‘hey what’s up dude!’ that she yelled at everyone else. His street name. Dominic seemed captivated by her little charade about drying and adrenaline, and that was mostly because Lily was the expert at it. Obviously she knew what she was talking about when it came to that stuff. If she had been a couple hundreds of years older, she would have been the one to invent all of that.
Her eyes widened as he grabbed her wrist. She certainly wasn’t expecting that kind of aggression from him. Sure, she apparently almost killed him. There were two key words there: apparently and almost. Neither of them were a done deal in her book, and she had was his side of the story. The Gryffindor vaguely recalled the interaction, but that was part of the game. He poked her in the stomach and said that the next time she tried doing that to him, she’d get it back. That was a challenge right? Right? “Is that all?” Lily followed up with, tilting her head again. He hadn’t let go of her arm yet. “Just pay back? Someone as big and scary as you are Dommy should have something bigger and scarier to do to people than just pay them back,” she shrugged. They might as well up the stakes while they were at it. “Because I’m on board, but I think there needs to be something else in store...” she trailed off, narrowing her eyes back at him.

Her eyes widened as he grabbed her wrist. Good. She asked if that was all and... did that... head tilting thing again. His eyes narrowed and he took another step toward her, basically toe to toe with her now. She suggested that he, Dommy, 'should have something bigger and scarier to do to people than just pay them back', and then it was his turn to raise an eyebrow and tilt his head a little bit. She said she was on board, saying there needed to be something else in store. Her eyes narrowed too, and he tilted his head down towards her a little more, just to get closer with his own glare. "What did you have in mind, Potter? I'm sure anything you come up with will be like taking candy from a baby. Which is pretty easy, I hear," he challenged. If she wanted to come up with some kind of deal then he was one hundred percent on board as well. He didn't realize that if someone walked in this could looked slightly promiscuous or dangerous. It was one of those things that could pass as both. He was only focused on the task at hand, getting even with this girl somehow... or rather, he wasn't exactly sure why he'd bothered. They'd always screwed with each other on the pitch. Why was today different? lily luna potter

@dominic Wow. He was actually really freaking tall. That was something she had never noticed while on the pitch, because obviously the game and winning was more important to her. Size had never stopped before when it came to running down the other team or trying to knock someone off balance. Clearly she had done a number on Dominic here, and he was practically twice her size! At least it looked like it from where she was. Being the small whippersnapper she was, Lily knew that she could be intimidating and get her way, and right now it was looking like she was doing just that. Making Dominic turn his anger into interest was just one of her many tactics to displace blame, instead offering an alternative to whatever she did. He took the bait, which meant that the Quaffle was in her hands now. He should have known better than that, being one himself.
Lily grinned up at him as he asked what she had in mind. A multitude of things, some that were certainly worse than others. But the one she wanted to use today was the best one. “Next time one of us really goes after the other, then the one that loses has to do everything asked of them for an entire day,” she paused to let him process it. “Everything.” Lily repeated, trying to gauge what his thoughts on it were. “Normal bumping and knocking around in a match doesn’t count, but if it’s a repeat of today, then anything is game.” That sounded pretty darn good to her. She knew that if she got him good once, she could again. Having Triple D as her puppet for a day would be hilarious. “Oh! And if you really want to make it fun, we can extend it to outside of matches too.”

She grinned at him, and he held his harsh gaze. He wasn't going to give into those striking eyes of hers. Nope. She made her bet, about having to do everything asked of them for an entire day. It was... interesting, definitely. She repeated the world 'everything' and he tilted his head to the side a little more, then nodded slowly. "Interesting," he muttered under his breath as she went on to say that regular bumping and knocking didn't count. He figured as much, of course. Then she said they could extend it to outside of matches too and his eyebrow raised even higher. "Are you saying that you're just going to attack me at random and if I fight back I have to win in order to control you for a day?" he asked, for clarifications sake. That was kind of strange of her, to suggest they have a physical altercation outside of a match. If that's what she meant. lily luna potter

@dominic Lily knew she already had her teeth sunk all the way into Dominic. The little addition of extending their deal to outside matches was to sweeten the deal, and honestly, she knew she would have a better chance catching him off guard while in the school than she could during a match. Way too many things went on at Hogwarts, and using any little distraction to attack her prey was the best way to come out of this victorious. During matches they were both on high alert (Or at least Lily was, because after their encounter today, she was pretty sure Dommy was a little slow on the uptake. He moved around like a slug. And here he called himself a chaser!), so going after one another, while more inevitable, was also harder to do. Zooming away on a broom made everything easier, not to mention that she had laid out the ground work for what constituted as a hard enough hit. If that meant almost killing the other person, than a little work would be involved in the middle of a match. “Isn’t it? I have some awesome schemes you know,” Lily beamed.
Dominic went on to ask a really silly and obvious question. “Duh I’m going to attack at random,” she rolled her eyes. “And yup! Beat me, and I’m all yours,” she grinned, giving him a wink. Standing up on her tippy-toes, Lily leaned in as much as she could, Dominic’s hold on her arm had some resistance. “Anything your little heart desires.” Satisfied with her taunt, she leveled her feet back out and continued on. “I already know what I’m going to have you do. Or at least one of the things. It’ll be the big finale of the whole day,” she tilted her head and gave him a stern look. “And no giving me attitude about it either. You’ll love it.”

She was all proud about having awesome schemes, and he just scoffed. This girl was completely insane. She clarified that he had it right, winking at him and he furrowed his eyebrows again. He held onto her arm a little tighter as she got on her tippy toes, making sure she wouldn't fall. She leaned in closer to him and he leaned a little too, to help her get closer, since that's apparently what she wanted. Anything his little heart... desired? Okay, now he was convinced she was crazy but... it wasn't a bad deal. She flattened her feet again and he let go of her wrist completely once he was sure that she was steady. She said she already knew what she would 'have him do', as if she was already the winner. He scoffed and shook his head, "you didn't say the 'no attitude' was part of the deal," he said flatly. "But let's say it is. Which means that you'll have to keep that pretty little mouth shut when I boss you around," he smirked. Their playful banter seemed to be back, which made him feel a bit more comfortable about this whole situations. Things were back to normal. lily luna potter

@dominic He finally let go of her arm, and Lily rubbed it a little. The guy had held on pretty tight, nothing she couldn’t handle of course, but if that was the average person, she felt bad for their teeny little stick arms. Her teeny little stick arms were used to being abused by Quidditch and nature, so they were all good. She would definitely need to put her all into this if she was going to win, which was going to happen no matter what. Dominic had his little anger infused temper tantrums, and getting him into one of those flurries (like he had been a few minutes earlier), would give her the edge over him. Plus, if the worst happened, nobody would be on his side. He was a big, brooding piece of man-meat. She was a little wiry twig. Beating up on little girls wasn’t cool, and the school wouldn’t have that. Obviously Lily wanted their game to be done fairly, and school interference kept out of it, but she wouldn’t put all her options on the bench just yet.
Clearly he didn’t like her pitch about not having attitude after he lost, because he turned it right back around on her. “No ‘tude from me dude,” she squeaked, giving him a salute. Lily didn’t like that he was getting cocky about the whole thing, because they had to both know she was going to win this thing. It was obvious. If he let her beat him up during the match today, then he was a lot weaker than he made himself out to be. “Awww, you think I’m pretty?” Lily cooed, moving closer to him once again, reaching out to put one of her hands on his chest. “You can definitely boss me around then,” she whispered up at him, biting down onto her lower lip as she did so. “Remember, anything goes. If you win, of course.”

She made a rather stupid sounding rhyme and he rolled his eyes again. Her salute was funny, though, so he smiled a little, shaking his head. She called him out on using the word 'pretty' and he scoffed, but he didn't have time to say anything before she was moving closer and putting a hand on his chest, saying he could boss her around. Whispering, actually, and biting her lip. "Sounds like you want me to win," he deducted, his voice dropping down to a whisper as well. It was all in good fun, of course, but his heart was beating kind of fast. He hadn't really been this close to a girl before, at least not in this kind of context. With her whispering, biting her lip, and touching his chest. Yup. She was a weirdo. "Tell me," he said, his voice getting a little volume back, "what do you think I should do with my power? Could be fun to force you to kick your brothers around, but that's pretty much your every day so many not so fun..."lily luna potter

@dominic The salute worked! It actually worked! Dominic could smile, which was easily the biggest shock of the day and Lily was sure that this had to be the first time he had ever done that without having some sort of malicious or dangerous intent behind it. She knew that well, because she got the same kind of daredevil smirk he did when she was about to jump head first into something wild. His heartbeat started to pick up as he responded back. “Silly Dommy, why would I want you to win?” She tilted her head slightly. “I could do just as many awful things to you too, you know. Who says you have to win to get them?” Lily honestly had no idea what she was saying, but it was hilarious to see his reactions to all of it. He was getting all hot and bothered over a game. “And if you don’t win this one, there’s always next time.” Whether or not she renewed their contract for a second round would be determined by the results of the first. If she won, she knew that he’d want another go at it, even if her prize was something awful. There would be some point where this would get dull and boring, and she knew Dominic would want to continue on with it so he could exert his power or whatever.
Lily had moved her hand from pressing on his chest, to dragging her finger up and down it. This was too much fun for her to stop now. Dominic was going on about having her tell him what to do to her. She shook her head before standing back up on her toes. She was closer to his face than she was last time. “You,” Lily poked him in the chest, “have to use your head for that one.” She brought the hand she had been poking him with up to the side of his head, and tapped it there. Smirking, she went back down, taking a few steps away from him. “You’re a Ravenclaw, right Dommy? You should be used to using that smarty pants brain of yours. Be creative.”

Ugh. There was that Dommy thing again. Damn her. Damn her to hell. There was that head tilting thing again. He did it too, regularly, but his was because he was subconsciously annoyed by his height.She was just being... annoying. Then she said she could do just as many awful things to him that he didn't have to win to get... and that was a buttload of gibberish right there. IN fact, he actually let out a short laugh, shaking his head. "I'll win this one. Don't worry," he said firmly, giving a firm nod. Then, she didn't answer his question, but instead traced his chest with her fingertip which made him give her a look of utter doneness. Eyebrow raised like 'really?'. She shook her head and was up on her toes again! Her face even closer to his than last time, without him even having to move. Sweet little fourteen year old Dom was not entirely approving of this, but he didn't budge. "Geez louise, Lily..." he muttered, rolling his eyes again. She finally back away after tapping his head, which almost caused him to snap right there. "Fine. I will be," he said, folding his arms over his chest, "don't let that Gryffindor bravery make you overconfident," he challenged before turning and walking out, grabbing his bag off the floor as he left without turning back. lily luna potter
