Motto: "Yeah, that was funny though!"
Family Information: Both Nick's parents are magical, and as far as he knows so are his other relatives. His familly is a neutral party in the war, as is Nick. His father used to play professional Quidditch and made several appearences for the English national team. His mother is a housewife who stays at home and looks after his younger sister. The familly is middle class and although they have the money to buy the nicer thing's in life they refuse. As a result to buy the newest broomsticks and the fashionable robes, Nick has a part time summer job working at a resturant in Diagon Alley.
Background: Throughout his school career Nick has had his highs and lows. His first year was spent simply making friends and establishing his cliche as was his second year. He made the quidditch team in third year playing seeker, a position he retained for fourth year. His parents however forbade him from returning to the sport in his fifth year so he could study for his OWL'S. This tactic however did not work as the time he would have spent playing quidditch he spent bunking off with friends. He achieved 3 Outstanding's [Charms, Defence Against the Dark Arts and Transfiguration] 1 Exceeds Expectation's [Potion's] 1 Acceptable [Astronomy] and 2 Dreadfulls [History of Magic and Herbology]. Although his mother was dissapointed with half of his exam results Nick was thoroughly pleased with them. He has already decided which NEWTS to take, these being Defence Against the Dark Arts, Charm's, Tranfiguration and Potion's [His mothers choice]. As none of the other subjects would take him for a NEWT he has one slot as free periods.
Short Roleplay: "So, I hear John isnt coming to practice today? Something about a broken arm in Care of Magical Creatures." Shouted Nick to the quidditch team captain. This would be the third time this month this particular player had missed practice and the captain did not look pleased at all. Nick's partner in crime and best friend George stiffled laughter as the two pulled their robes over their heads. Now did not seem like a good time to reveal that he had not brought his protective gear, but he was seeker he didnt need it, did he? Nick grabbed his broom and dashed out of the changing rooms and through the tunnel before the captain could call him back.
The cold rain hit him immediately but he ignored it and jumped on the broomstick, soaring high into the sky until he was fifty feet above the ground, meeting up with his crush Angelina. She was everything a boy wanted in a girl, pretty, smart and funny, she was also older than him.
"Hi Angelina, did you hear...." The sixth year put her finger to her lucious pink lips
"I heard Nick, you told me in the changing room's." A flush of red filled his cheeks as he found himself saying
"Oh." He was usually pretty good around girls but this one made him feel odd, everytime he wanted to say something his stomach did backflips. She spoke again
"Thats the team out on the pitch, we should get into the huddle." He sighed "
Yeah, I guess so." She flashed him a smile then shot down into a dive towards the Quidditch team. At times it felt like women were a diffrent species. Shrugging he followed her down.
It was an important game they had coming up, Ravenclaw who were a couple of hundred points ahead of them in the table, thanks to George's terrible goalkeeping against Gryfindor last week. Nick shot him a nasty glance as those sour thoughts entered his mind, a look which made George flash him the finger. He truly was terrible but suprisingly he had been the best at the try-outs, perhaps it was just the nerves getting the better of him and Nick could hardly criticise. He had been within inches of the snitch last match and thrown it away as he lost concentration when Angelina scored. Oh well, there were more matches ahead as the team high fived eachother and took to the air. It was around this time that he realised he hadn't been listening to a word the captain had said.....
