It's the end of September, everybody's so busy. Not to mention, Halloween Ball will be held in a month. The main topic among Hogwarts student the whole month would be "Who you will asked to dance with".
As days passes by, a lot of new couples have been showing up. To everyone surprise, including Oliver, Naire and Ethan are among of the showing up couples. Seeing them together really hurts him. Since that little confession he made (The "afraid you'll miss me" thing), Naire has been avoiding him. He regretted what he said. It's better for him if they fight all the time than not being able to talk to her even for a minute.
He hasn't been concentrating almost in everything, not even Quidditch. The last game Gryffindor had against Hufflepuff was almost a great lost for Gryffindor. They were 40 points behind, thanks to the keeper, before Harry catch the snitch. His team mates realized there's something wrong about him, but didn't have the courage to ask him. They thought, it would be something big to make him acted like that.
But then, Harry couldn't resists to ask him.
"Oliver!" scream Harry though the corridor.
No reaction from Oliver. He kept on walking.
"Oliver, wait!" Harry scream again, running to him.
"Hey…what's up?" he said finally, looking at Harry's tired face.
"I want to talk to you" Harry said.
"Ok, what is it then?" asked him.
"Well..err…it's about how you acted lately, actually" said Harry careful.
"What do you mean by that? There's nothing wrong with me!" he said half screaming.
"Hey, calm down! That's what I mean. You never acted like this, especially after the game!" Harry said.
"Err…there's nothing wrong!" he said again.
"Come on, Oliver! You can tell me..maybe it'll lighten up your heart! I can tell there's something wrong when our captain acted like he never play Quidditch before!" Harry said smiling.
"Well, I don't know Harry! Yes it's true that I've got something on my mind, but…" he said helplessly.
"You can tell me, I'm a good listener!" Harry said.
"Okay then…let's sit" he said, walking inside an empty class.
Harry followed him inside, finding a chair next to him.
"Okay, here's the story, Harry!" he said taking his breath.
"Ok" Harry said.
"You know Naire of course?" asked him.
"Yes… you both are so famous Wood!" Harry said with a big grin.
"Yes, of course…" he blushed.
"Well, I … kinda like her now!" he continued.
"But..Oliver, you're famous because you hated each other!" Harry said, surprised.
"I know, but…..oh, I don't know!" he said clunching(?? don't know how to spell it, sorry) his fist.
"Ok, so you like her..why don't you go on and tell her?" said Harry.
"Haven't you notice Harry? She's all over that Ethan guy!" he scream.
"Well,.. actually I have…sorry 'bout that" Harry said slowly.
"That's okay, actually I've told her.. sort off" he said.
"And…?" Harry asked.
"I didn't have enough courage to stay after that, so I just leave her there… stupid, I know!" he answered.
"But then, I guess I knew the answer. Since that day, she's completely avoiding me. It's like I'm not exist!" he continued, then standing up, stood there for a while, then walked to the door leaving Harry alone.
Harry didn't know what to say. He just stood there, watching Oliver back disappeared through the door. When he walked out the class he knew that the Weasley twins had been listening all the time.
"You've been listening huh?" asked Harry.
"Yup!" they answered, trying not to laugh.
"When he got out, we hide behind the wall" Fred Weasley said.
"He's not getting better isn't he?" George Weasley said to Harry.
"Nope, I guess not" Harry answered.
"It's a bit strange you know! I mean..he's.. Oliver Wood! Acting like that for a girl, who doesn't even care about him!" George continued.
"Yeah… I know" Harry said.
"I mean… he loves Quidditch! He's a Quidditch freak! And you can say things are very wrong when he didn't even bother to win or loose!" George said.
"It's funny though… our beloved Captain, in love!" said Fred laughing.
"Hey…that's suppose to be confidential! Shut your mouth!" Harry said.
"Okay..okay..!" still holding back laughter.
"Pathetic isn't it!"
Suddenly Harry bursts into laughter. He just couldn't stand it. George and Fred joined him. Oliver Wood, who would've known?
