Hi everyone. I randomly got inspired to write this story. And so I did, or rather I should say that I am because it's still in the process of being written. But anyway, here we go.

"Life is not the amount of breaths you take, it's the moments that take your breath away."- Will Smith from the movie "Hitch".
There were plenty of moments that defined Oliver Wood's relationship with Chandler dos Santos. And breath-taking certainly applied.

Ok, just a couple of things that I want to say. For anyone who reads Sparks Fly, obviously some of the characters will seem familiar. Most of the characters from Sparks Fly will make an appearance at some point, some will be more prevalent that others. Just one quick thing about Chandler: she didn't go Hogwarts like she did in Sparks Fly. She went to a school in Portugal. Other than that, unless I specify anything else later, assume everything about everyone is the same as it is in Sparks Fly.

The story might be a bit confusing because it will jump around a bit. Each chapter is a moment of Oliver and Chandler's relationship but the moments are not in order when they happened. I'll try and specify in each chapter or before each chapter around when it is supposed to be.

Disclaimer: I only own the OCs.


"Oliver!" He turned around to hear the one voice that he wanted to hear. She ran toward him, practically throwing herself in his arms and he pulled her close.

"Are you alright, love?" He asked, pulling away from her but holding her out at arm's length. It was, in reality, a stupid question, because he had been the one to fight in the battle, leaving her only a note on the counter telling him where he was, without any details.

It was only then that he realized what she looked like. She was wearing a plain gray spaghetti strap tank top, a pair of short mesh black shorts, and a green zip-up hoodie that Oliver recognized as his own. Her long brown hair was pulled back into a loose ponytail and she wore no make-up. And of course, he thought she looked beautiful; she always did. But Chandler dos Santos never left the house looking like she did now and it was that that worried him.

He didn't have to wait long to see what she was upset about. Within seconds, she was pounding his chest, emphasizing some point about how he could have died and that he can't just leave notes on the counter saying that he was going back to Hogwarts because some maniac decided to call a war.

And just when he finally thought she was done, she slipped easily into French and began telling him off. And if he thought that he wasn't paying attention before, he definitely wasn't paying attention now that he couldn't understand a word she was saying. Instead, he found himself taking in her rosy cheeks. Her beautiful blue eyes. The fact that her hands were flying as she spoke angrily.

Completely cutting her off, he knelt down on one knee and pulled the little blue box out of his pocket. "Marry me." He interrupted and for the first time in over two years, he saw her completely speechless.

"Look, Chan, the only thing I could think about the entire time I was here was what you were going to do to me when I got home." Oliver told her. "And then I started thinking, what if I never got home?" Her eyes widened, but he didn't stop. "And I know that I scared you and I really don't ever want to scare you like that again," He said. "But I had to. I needed to be here." He paused and took a breath. "But all I need now is you."

Chandler stood there, staring down at him, clearly flustered. "I…I don't know what to say." She said softly.

"Well a yes would suffice." He responded, smiling up at her.

Her eyes filled with tears as she held her left hand out, nodding in response. He slipped the ring on her finger and stood up, lifting her up and kissing her. Placing her back on the ground, he looked down at her, a smile on his face. But the smile faded once he saw the tears in her eyes still.

"Not still upset about anything, are we?" He asked.

She shook her head but more tears came out. "Oh God, now I can't stop."

Chuckling lightly, he pulled her close to him and kissed the side of her head, wondering how he possibly lived without her.


A/N: Ok, so there's the first chapter. I know it's kind of short, but what did everyone think so far? Do you guys (meaning readers) like the idea of this so far?
