Daddy Chapter Seventeen
It was December twenty-fourth, and Marcus hadn't seen Oliver since the twenty-second. He was starting to worry. Oliver was all that Marcus had left in this world. If he were to lose Oliver, he would lose a part of himself that he could never get back. Seeing Oliver was what kept him going during the day. He was his reason to live. How, without Oliver, Marcus felt as if he was dying inside. Since the day that he had last seen Oliver, Marcus did nothing but sleep and think of him. Often, Marcus found himself crying and wondering if he would ever see Oliver again.
*~*~*~*~*~*
Oliver said in an armchair near the fireplace with his chin resting on the palm of his hand. A tear rolled down his cheek as he closed his eyes and thought of the raven-haired Slytherin boy that he loved so much. Just then, Percy ran into the common room, and informed everybody that they were to immediately proceed to the Great Hall. Oliver stood up, eager to see Marcus.
When Oliver and the others arrived at the Great Hall, they found that the majority of the other students had already arrived. Frantically, Oliver looked around until he spotted Marcus on the opposite side of the hall, standing and talking with Terrence and Adrian. At that moment, Marcus looked up and saw Oliver. It was as if time had stopped. Marcus could feel his heart beat faster at the sight of the Gryffindor. Noticing that Marcus had stopped talking, Terrence and Adrian looked up to see what he was looking at. It was Oliver. Terrence waved and Adrian gave a small smile, which seemed to shock Oliver. But, he was polite nonetheless, and returned the smile and the wave; happy to see that Marcus was safe and sound. As Dumbledore stood up to speak, the Hall fell silent. The students were eager to hear what would happen to them.
"Now," began Dumbledore, "You are all aware by now that Lord Voldemort has returned. I don't deny this, and I don't want any of you to panic! You are all to stay here tonight where the teachers will be able to watch you closely and protect you from hard if the need arises."
It was then that Oliver realized that all four of the house table were gone. Professor Dumbledore concluded his speech, and with a wave of his hand, the floor was covered in pillows and squishy purple sleeping for each student.
*~*~*~*~*
A few hours later, all of the students were asleep except for two: Oliver Wood and Marcus Flint. The two boys had manipulated the sleeping arrangements so that they could be side-by-side as they slept. They lay in each other's arms talking about life after Hogwarts for almost an hour until they both fell asleep, waiting for the dawn of a new day.
A/N: And that's it for now! I promise the next chapter will be longer!! Looking at it, it looks as if it'll be twice as long, if not longer. Anycrap, PLEASE leave me reviews if you want to see anything special in my next story, and I'll try and oblige!! ^_^
