There is nothing special about Mulholly Road. The houses over there is just as same as the one in other roads in west suburb of London. But then, maybe things are not very usual on house number twelve.

It is seven o'clock in the morning. Breakfast is served deliciously on the table in front of the kitchen. There are four people sitting there, two adults and two boys. The middle age man who's reading a newspaper is Mr. Wood, and the brown haired woman who's serving him breakfast is Mrs. Wood. Their seventeen years old son, Oliver, is eating silently, while his obnoxious seven years old brother, Steven, is talking abruptly next to him.

This nice family picture was quite normal, until the conversation started.

"So, Oliver! I believe this will be your last year in Hogwarts!" Said Mr. Wood.

"Yes, father.." Answered Oliver powerless.

"I believe you're still the Captain of the Quidditch Team, right?" Mr. Wood said again.

"Yes.." Oliver answered again, still powerless. Which is very strange, since Quidditch is his most important thing in live. Quidditch is a sport which he can not live without.

"I will be captain too you know! If I'm in Hogwarts!" said Steven.

"Yes, I believe you will, Steve!" smiled Mrs. Wood.

There's no reaction from Oliver. Usually, if Steven brought up the idea of being Captain, he usually mocked his little brother.

"Is there something wrong dear?" asked Mrs. Wood worried.

"No mother, I'm fine!" said Oliver getting up from his chair.

"Hmm..I better get my things down. We have to go in half an hour" walking his way through the stairs.

"Well, I guess his not on his school mood this year, then!" Said Mr. Wood smiling to his wife.

In half an hour, they're on their way to Kings Cross Station in London. It'seven thirty, and they still have one and a half hour to catch the train to Hogwarts.

Exactly eight thirty they arrived on Kings Cross. They walked silently to the wall between platform 9 and 10, because the last thing they want to have is people watching Oliver go straight right through it. It's not a very easy thing to do, since there's a screeching owl inside a silverish cage. This brownish female owl name Gregory (they thought it was male, until it was too late) has been Oliver's since his first year at Hogwarts.

When they reach the wall, they stopped. After saying goodbye and everything, he calmly run through the middle of the wall. There's no problem for him, since he's been doing it for years. In seconds he has arrived in Hogwarts Station. Finding his way inside the train, he met some of his friends. They talked for a while, and then went inside the train.

And then he saw someone that has made him go through this cranky mood all morning. Standing in front of him is the most beautiful girl. She has long black hair, slim figures, fair skin, and the most beautiful green eyes you'll ever see. Her name is Naire Mutsuki. She was half Japanese and Brazilian.

He knew her since their first year. He can still remember the first time he saw her. Well, it wasn't a very pleasant years though, since they decided that they can't stand each other. There's no single day without them fighting. Didn't help either, that the fact they're on different houses. He's in Gryffindor, and she's in Ravenclaw. Not enough already, they're both are on Quidditch team for their houses. The fight was very tense whenever there's a match between houses.

But everything changed last year, when she became so beautiful. She's not the old Naire, whose hair was ugly, or her face was full of zits. She magically (could be actually [wink]) transformed into a very beautiful girl in one summer. Since that day, he just couldn't resists to look at her every time she walks, every time she smiles, and every time she tries to make him angry. It was a very hard year for him. Knowing that she still hates him from the heart while he's slowly falling in love with her. That's why he's not in a very good mood this morning.

"Well, hello Oliver!" said Naire smiling.

"Hi! How's your summer?" he asked.

"To tell the truth, it was fabulous! Since you're not around, I had a very great summer!" she answered with a big grin.

"Well, same for me, then!" he answered weakly.

"What's wrong with you, Wood? Usually you do better than that!" she said.

"Nothing's wrong! I'm just tired. You don't have to worry, I'll be back!" he answered and then walked away.
