1 The Beginning
*Tara Rose's Point of View*
Oliver Wood, the Quidditch crazed teen, the keeper and captain for Gryffindor. The one boy that could break a girl's heart and not even know it. Oliver Wood…yes…Oliver my true friend.
I've known Oliver since I was a small girl even before we went to Hogwarts. He and I were real chums, the best of friends. Heck we use to have baths together! Well of course that changed over the years….I mean little girls and boys can be tolerated but 7 years olds…nuh uh.
Not only that but my feelings towards him changed too. I no longer looked at him as a brother but as a well…I wanted him to be more. OK so Oliver and I were close. We would even tell each other our deepest darkest secrets.
I guess you could consider us best friends…well we use to be at least. That was all before Hogwarts. At Hogwarts it all changed It all started the day I got the letter….
I ran down the street with the paper grasped tightly in my hand, pulling my sweatshirt as my mother had told me to, the whole while. I panted slightly and turned the corner and ran up the lawn and to the door. I reached my slim hands into my skirt pocket and got the silver key out and inserted it into the hole.
As I ran past the kitchen and up the stairs I mumbled a fast, "Hi!" to my god parents. 2 steps at a time it only took me a few seconds to reach the top. I pounded on the oak door and rolled my eyes at the-CAUTION: Highly dangerous animal contained inside- sign. I paused for a second before pounding again, "Open up!"
My patients gave up and I turned the doorknob and slammed the door open. I blushed as I saw that Oliver only had a pair of shorts on and was just pulling them up. He obviously had just gotten up. HE yawned and looked at me his sleepy glazed eyes. 'Woh.' Ok I admit for a new 12 year old he was ok…well VERY ok looking.
He smirked and stretched his arms above his head, "Hey Tara. What are you doing here so early?" he yawned and looked at his alarm, "It's only 7 o'clock. You're usually sleeping right about now."
I put my right hand on my hip and smacked him lightly with the other, "Yeah I could say the same for you lazy butt. Now get dressed we got some talking to do."
He groaned as he dug through his drawers, "Another 'talk.' How many have we had this week? 5, 6? Oh wait that's right 7! That's an all time record! Besides…what was up with you walking in on me? You've been doing that a lot lately."
I turned around and looked out the window and sighed, "Oliver you're too serious."
He chuckled and tousled my now frizzy hair, "And you're too charming. SO what did ou want to 'talk' about." He plopped down onto his bed and stretched his legs nudging me in the leg.
I looked down at the letter again and held it out to him. "Read this."
HE grabbed it to me and read the opening line, "Dear Ms. Tara Rose, We are pleased to inform you that you have….What is this?"
I sat down next to him, "Read it." He scanned over the rest of the letter and his eyes widened.
"Hogwarts? You got into Hogwarts?" I nodded meekly and looked at him and raised my eyebrow.
"Did you?"
"I…well. No." I nodded to myself, 'That settles it.'
"I'm not going." His eyes bugged out and he grabbed my shoulders, dropping the letter.
"What do you mean? You have to!" I pushed his hands of my shoulders, "No. If you're not than neither than I."
He blinked, "What? But why?"
"You're my best friend Oliver." I stated stressing the word best.
He seemed more confused, "But that doesn't matter."
I blinked the angry tears from my eyes, "Yes it does."
"No it doesn't!"
"Yes it does!"
"NO it doesn't!" I giggled as we started our all-famous wrestling matches.
I pinned him with one arm behind his back, "Yes. It DOES."
He laughed and rolled over and flipped me, "No it doesn't!"
I'd say in the middle of his next pin the door opened. I looked up from the tangled mess we were in at his mother and attempted to wave, "Hi Mrs. Wood!"
She laughed lightly and walked in. She went past us and set the pile of clean clothes on the dresser and turned to us. Her husband walked in the door and stood by her.
Oliver pulled away from my pin and stood up as he noticed the serious look on their faces, "What's up?"
They smiled at each other, as I had seen my mother and father do many times before. It was one of those moments. A im-so-proud moment. Mrs. Wood pulled a nicely folded piece of paper from her apron. I smiled in glee as I realized it was Oliver's letter.
"Oliver, dear. We have something for you."
It didn't take another word. Oliver grabbed the letter out of his mother's hands. He ripped it open and scanned it with his eyes.
I noticed the sparkle that began to form in his eyes.
He looked up at his parents before turning to me, "Well, looks like we got some packing to do. WE'RE GOING TO HOGWARTS!"
He picked me up and swung me around in a circle. His parents held hands and smiled at us proudly. 'Yes we're going to Hogwarts. We're going to Hogwarts Oliver. We're going to Hogwarts.'
