Disclaimer: I think that everybody knows now that I don't owen them, right?
Also: Well, I've been home for two days in the last two weeks (visited Tenerife and Paris), so you've had to wait an awfully long time. Sorry!
Chapter 5
My hands shook as I looked at the man in front of me. Once again, I stood in front of Oliver Wood.
'Perce? Come on in,' he said, stepping aside. I followed him into Katie's kitchen and sat down on an empty chair.
'Is Katie ever home?' I asked, tyring to make some small talk.
'In the evenings,' Oliver answered, 'But I guess you're not here to talk about Katie, right?'
'Right,' I said, 'Right. Well, Olli, the thing is, I've talked to Ginny and she said I should just give you another chance.'
And I told him I wanted to
take things slow.
And I asked him out on a date.
And he said yes.
And so, here we are.
'Well, Perce, I must say, your little sister has some very clever ideas.'
I smiled nervously and took a sip from my butterbeer.
'Perce, relax, I'm not going to bite.'
'Not even if I want you to?' I said, sounding more confident than I felt.
'Well,' Oliver said with a smile, 'Maybe if you wanted it.'
And I felt like the date only lasted for five minuted, but it was actually three hours before we said our goodbyes.
'I really had a good time Perce,' Oliver said.
'So did I,' I answered truthfully.
'Maybe,' Oliver started, 'We could have another date someday?'
'I'd like that,' I answered, kissing him on the cheek and watching him Disapparate.
