Hey guys! This is my first Fanfic. I absolutely LOVE Harry Potter, I personally want to know more about some of the minor characters. This an Oliver Wood/OC Fanfic.
Enjoy! No FLAMES!
P.S. I changed the storyline a bit.
CHAPTER 1-Eleanor
Here I was. Starting my 7th year Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and just my luck, Sirius Black the "Notorious Mass Murderer" escapes Azkaban. I mean seriously, I don't believe he's out to get Potter. He was a good kid and from what I'd heard from my dad (he worked in Magical Law Enforcement Squad) the Black situation was fishy. The only good thing about this year, I was taking all my Favorite Subjects and I was Quidditch Captain this year. Last year the Cup had been cancelled due to the "Chamber of Secrets" incident. I had to admit, I was disappointed. Just because I was a Ravenclaw and loved to read didn't mean that I was happy with Quidditch being cancelled. I loved the sport. In addition to being the Captain, I was also 1 of the 3 Chasers. Let me tell you, you have NOT lived until you had flown on a broom during a game, heard the crowd's cheers, felt the stress but also the excitement and the satisfaction of winning after all the hard training sessions and occasional arguments.
"Do you ever stop" asked my roommate and best friend Nicole Bernard interrupting my train of thoughts.
Sighing, I put down my book and turned to look at her.
"I'd finish faster if I wasn't being constantly interrupted" I replied.
"Come on Eleanor, it's our last year, don't you want to have something to remember it by!" exclaimed Nicole.
"I'm fine as I am, besides I have Quidditch" I stated.
"Oh come on, I don't know about you but when I leave this place I want to remember my last year and all the great times we had" said Nicole.
"Well then you can go do something, but I'm perfectly happy sitting here reading".
"Have you ever thought about finding a boyfriend" asked Nicole.
"I don't want one".
"You need one".
"Are you trying to say I'm Socially deprived?"
"Yes I am"
"Well I am not"
"Are too"
"Am not"
"Prove it"
"I'm the captain of a Quidditch team Nicole"
"How about this?" Said Nicole sitting down on the chair next to me. "By the end of the year, I you have a boyfriend, and NOT just for a day, for over 4 months then I shall never call you socially deprived again"
I narrowed my eyes. Nicole was smart. She was also known to be an excellent Schemer.
"Whats in it for me?" I asked.
"If you manage to do it then I'll do whatever you want for a whole week" she said.
"Fine, but I get to dump him as soon as it's over" I said.
"Deal" agreed Nicole.
"Just out of Curiosity, who would you have me date" I asked.
"Oh don't worry about that" she replied airily waving a hand.
"Now that your done, can I get back to my book, I have an essay to write as well as Quidditch practices to plan."
"Very Well, but I'll be back with a name for your future boyfriend" she said standing up.
"I doubt you'll find one" I stated.
"Oh don't worry about me hon, I already have someone in mind and I'm sure you'll love him" said Nicole.
"Yeah, yeah now go away" I muttered as I picked up my book and began to find my page.
As she left, I couldn't help but wonder who this "guy" was. I swear, if she chooses someone I hate just to torture me I will commit murder. Why did I even let her talk me into this? I guess to some extent what she said was true. I really didn't talk to a lot of people other than her, Melissa, Bridget and the members of my team. But that didn't mean I was a nobody. Did it? No, of course not. I may not talk to a lot of people but that didn't mean I wasn't known around Hogwarts. Being the Captain of Quidditch (a legendary sport here) a lot of people knew me. Whatever Nicole might think, I would date this "guy" for 4 months. And who knows, I may even like him. Yet, I couldn't help but get a bad feeling about this. As if it was all going to blow up in my face somehow.
Standing up, I gathered my things thinking i could finish this essay for Bins later and walked out of the Library already forgetting about this stupid boy idea. Instead, as I walked towards the Common Rooms, I focused my thoughts on the upcoming match between Hufflepuff and Gryffindor.
