The Love of My Life

There she was. The prettiest girl I had ever laid eyes on. And I had to kiss her. Curse you James! I thought as I remembered that he was the reason I had to do it. Though Sirius was to blame for his idea. You see, Sirius dared James to kiss Lily in front of the class a week ago and so James decided to give me similar torture. I had to kiss Allie Weasley, my best friend's sister, and the love of my life. But that wasn't even the worst part. I had to do it in front of the entire school. In about five minutes. Oh, and by the way, today is Valentine's Day. I told Arthur about the situation, and he agreed since I pretty much had no choice. Anyway, back to the present. I saw Arthur up ahead, and, as if by magic (no pun intended), he turned around and ran toward me. "So, you remember the plan?" he asked. "Yep. Get her right when she enters the Great Hall, give her a 3-5 second kiss, then run straight to the Gryfinndor table without looking back," I replied. I checked my watch: 1 minute to go already. Arthur saw and pushed me forward. I responded by taking advantage of the push off and running. I got to the doors of the Great Hall with thirty seconds to spare. I knew Allie would be last; she always was. I saw the Marauders and they all grinned at me. Later I saw Arthur who gave me the thumbs up. Finally, I saw Allie. With my heart beating faster than an excited hummingbird's, I grabbed her, pulled her into the Great Hall, kissed her for five seconds (I couldn't help myself) and ran for the Gryfinndor table. I sat down and filled my mouth with a very large bite of pancake. However, now everyone was talking. The teachers were looking at me with a very amused look on their faces. I went so red that Arthurs mum would've been proud. Allie came up to me. Dang it! Dang it! Dang it! Curse you James Potter! I thought. I swallowed the pancake and said "Well, happy Valentine's Day," I said. I am such and idiot! But Allie simply smiled at me and went to sit with her friends. Was it just my imagination, or did Allie Angela Weasley like me?

Dun dun dun…. Little cliff hanger. Next chapter coming up in a few minutes!

P.S. R&R please, I like to hear what people think about my work.
