Charlie was walking with Katie to their next lesson when Oliver stopped them.
'Oh hi Ollie. What's up?' Charlie asked.
'Charlie…erm…I was wondering if…well…Its Gryffindor's first Quidditch match tomorrow against Hufflepuff and…erm…I was wondering if you would like me to show you around the school after the match.' Oliver shoved his hands in his pockets and shuffled from one foot to the other, going slightly pink.
'I'd love you to,' Charlie said, smiling.
'Oh that's great. Meet me outside the Quidditch pitch after the game,' Oliver smiled and walked off.
'Oh my God Chazz!' Katie was in a fit of excitement.
'What?' Charlie asked.
'What? You've just been asked out by the most gorgeous Quidditch team captain this school has ever seen that's what!' Katie said punching Charlie's arm playfully.
' I wouldn't call it a date,' Charlie said, smiling. She knew Katie was right.
It was the day of the match. It was Gryffindor against Hufflepuff and the crowd was well hyped up. But none were more excited than Charlie and Holly. Their old school didn't have regular Quidditch matches. They had made a banner that said 'UP THE LIONS' with a massive Gryffindor lion on it. Hermione had bewitched it so that the lion would move and roar when Gryffindor scored. When the Gryffindor team came on in their red robes, the Gryffindor crowd roared with applause, easily drowning out the boos from the opposition. The fifth-year boys were chanting 'Harry! Harry! Harry!' Holly spotted Harry doing a lap of the pitch. Harry spotted her and waved. She smiled and waved back. Harry looked away and had to quickly dodge a Hufflepuff chaser who was also doing a lap of the pitch from the opposite direction.
'G'wan Ollie you can do it!' This shout from Charlie directed Holly's attention to her sister.
'Someone's got it bad for Oliver,' Holly teased.
'I don't know what you're on about.' Charlie took her hair out to hide her cheeks, which were turning pink.
'I saw you yesterday. Flirting and chatting with him at every opportunity,' Holly accused her sister as the teams took up their positions.
'Well if you must know, Ollie's showing me around the school after the match.' Charlie said as she readjusted her Gryffindor scarf.
'Oh yea and I bet the first place he'll show you is his dormitory,' Holly said and grinned cheekily. Before Charlie had time to retort, the match had started and the girls were caught up in the cheering.
The match ended, Gryffindor naturally the winners and Charlie waited in the grounds for Oliver to come out.
'Hey I never knew it'd take so long' he grinned apologetically
'That's ok, you lot were fantastic' Charlie replied smiling back
They linked arms as he escorted her to various places and by the time he was showing her round the hidden passages they were holding hands.
That night they sneaked some food from the Great Hall and headed out for a picnic.
They sat and talked and ate under the stars and they went flying for a while.
He smiled as he looked at her and he kissed her sweetly.
She smiled and kissed him back laying down and looking at the stars.
