Belle stood up with Blaise and stood up front for the final bow to the audience. The curtains parted and first to be announced was Blaise "Playing the rold of Nathaniel this evening was layed by Blaise Zabini, currently attending Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizadry." the announcer said. Blaise bowed and walked back to where the other actors were. "Playing the roll of Nell, would be miss Isabel Oakes, who is also attending Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizadry" he said as she took a bow. She then walked back until it was time for the main bow and once that was over she stepped off stage and down into the audience. This is when she was to kiss Malfoy and she saw him stand up with a smirk on his face. She wished to only make that smirk fade. She walked up to him and instead of a kiss she slapped him accross the face sending him shooting backwards into his seat. "Deal is off Malfoy" she said and walked back to where Oliver was with her brother.
She was suddenly blushing at the look on Olivers face as he stood up to see her. She smiled and gave him a large hug before locking him into a passionate kiss. She heard Chris jump up and run by her but it was to stop Malfoy who was running up the aisle to fight. Belle broke the kiss and turned around to face him. "Your no longer blackmailing me Malfoy" she said taking a step closer to right beside Chris. Chris looked to her then him "What was he blackmailing you with?" he asked angrily. "He wanted me to kiss him to make Oliver jelous" she said leaning back on her foot and crossing her arms. "and you got that kiss didnt you Malfoy" she said "For some reason it probably wasnt what you were expecting though" she smirked. He took a step closer to her as if to hit her but was knocked back by Chris and landed in the aisle holding onto a seat. "I dont think you'd want to be telling people about what happened tonight Malfoy, You may embarass daddy too much" Chris said angrily. Malfoy stood up, walked past them, and out the door towards the school.
A smile crept on Belle's face and she couldnt hold it back anymore. She gave Chris a hug and could have almost cried. "You did great tonight Belle" she said letting her go. She smiled and walked over towards Oliver who was smiling at her. She almost tackled him to the ground with kisses and he wasnt complaining one bit. "That was an awesome show Isabel" he said laying a hand on her cheek to make her gaze at him. "you were such a great cortazanne. I saw atleast half of the men in here not able to sit still." he laughed. She laughed and hugged him "How did you feel watching me on stage?" she asked him. "I loved every minute of it until you were screaming in pain" he said pulling her away to see his face. His face was indeed filled with sorrow and it was hurting her to see him this way. "Oliver, I was acting, I wasnt in any real pain" she said rubbing his back. "That sound will forever haunt me" he said to her.
She grabbed his hand and drug him back towards her dressing room and closed the door. She sat him down in her chair and hopped into his lap. She nuzzled her head at the nape of his neck "I really love you" she said to him. He laid an arm around her "I love you too" he said to her. She kissed his neck and moved her way towards his mouth. She slipped a hand under his shirt and felt his rock hard abs underneath. She gasped at feeling them and he took this to his advantage and deepend the kiss. She felt him slide and hand under the back of her shirt and was startled when she heard the door snap open. She broke the kiss and jerked around to see Roger standing there loooking at her in Oliver's lap. She was him walk down the hall and tried to stop him but he wouldnt stop.
She used the fact that it was his first time there to her advantage and cut him off. She slammed him back into the wall and stood in front of him. "What are you doing! We have a match tommorrow and you are not even at practice tonight!" she yelled to him. He gave her a glare and pushed her back off of him and back towards the wall "What am I doing!?" he yelled "Does it look like I'm shaggin members of the other team! You were told to stop this and you directly disobeyed orders!" he screamed. She had seen him angry at her but never like this. His face was turning red and she cowered from him like she had never done before. "After tommorrows match your off the team" he said and whipped around leaving her in the hallway alone.
Belle leaned back against the wall and put her head down. "I can handle the show, quiddich, and Oliver. I'll show him tommorrow when I lead our team to victory over Gryffindor." she said and walked back to her dressing room. She opened the door and Oliver was still sitting there. "How did that end?" he asked holding his hands out for her to come over and sit with him. Instead of sitting in his lap she stopped in front of him "Tommorrow is my last game, I'm off the team" she said looking at her hand clutched in his. "What?!" Oliver yelled sitting up "He threw you off the team?" he said standing up and heading for the door. She grabed his hand and held him back "This is the answer to our prayers" she said stopping him. "How do you see this as a good thing?" he said confused.
"Oliver, we can be together now. I knew one of us would make the sacrifice and I'm glad that its me" she said to him. He gave a heartfelt sigh and walked back to hug her. "Let me talk to him, Perhaps I can make him change his mind" he said. Before she could say anything they were both out the door and running down through each hall until she spotted him. He only stopped when they were both stopped right in front of him. Oliver was in front of Isabel who seemed small next to him. Roger was in front of them and gave them both sour looks. Oliver spoke up first "Come on now Roger, you know that I'm a great team captain and that nothing interfears with the game to me" he said. Roger gave her a look then looked back to him. "I'll see, and if it works tommorrow then you have my blessing" he said and walked away.
Oliver turned around and smiled to her "Just do your best tommorrow and then there wont be anymore problems" he said. She sighed "There will still be more problems Oliver" she said wrapping her arms around his waist. He ran a hand though her long black hair as she rested her head against his chest. After awhile she grabbed his hand and walked him back to her dressing room. Belle was changing behind the closet door when she asked Oliver a question. "I still have my room at the inn tonight yet, Did you want to stay over?" she asked emerging in her jeans and emerald shirt instead of the wedding dress. Oliver stood up and walked over towards her "Your sure?" he asked concerned. Belle nodded "Yeah Oliver, I love you and I'd like you to stay over one night" She said to him. He nodded and she ran up to give him a kiss "I'll be ready in a few minutes" she said.
He grabbed her hand as she went to grab her jacket. "What's wrong baby?" she said looking back to his smiling face. "I said I'd stay one night, but not tonight" he sighed. She walked back over and laid an hand on his shoulder "You wont stay with me tonight?" she asked him. "Isabel, we have our championship match tommorrow, I have to be back at Hogwarts tonight" he said to her. "I guess your right she said walking back to her closet for her jacket. He put a hand over his eyes and stood up "So your angry at me....." he said to her. Without looking at him she placed her jacket on "Of course not, why should I be? Perhaps the fact that your refusing to be with me the first night that we can be together is to blame" she said closing the closet door. "Isabel, you heard why I cant, and if you thought about it I'd know that you'd feel the same way about it" he said walking towards her until he was mere inches from her. She leaned forward and wrapped her arms around him to inhale his scent.
"Not tonight" she said before giving him a kiss and walking out of the room. She heard him running behind her and when he caught up she had to smile. "I'm a big girl, I can walk to the Inn myself" she said walking with a straight face on. "I'm walking with you since you did slap the Slytherin Prince tonight" he sighed. "Your forgetting two things Oliver, My brother is the Slytherin King, and I can fight for myself." she smiled walking out the theater doors. "But what if he attacks as your in bed" he said to her as they walked into her room. "I've already been through that and I'm stil alive" she said draping her jacket over a chair. "You've had to fight off an adult wizard at nighttime?" he asked. "No, my brother did it but anyway, I'm going to bed" she said heading over and opening up the door.
"Was it Adam or Chris?" he asked. She opened the door and watched him walk almost out. "Neither, it was my older brother Josh" she said angrily. "I never knew you had an older brother named Josh" he said leaning back on his foot. "Well I dont anymore, he died that night trying to save Chris,Adam, and I" she said almost fuming. He walked over and went to hug her but she backed away from him "I'd just like to go to bed" she said not looking at him. "Alright" he mumbled and gave her a kiss on the forehead before leaving her there alone.
Belle walked into the bathroom and brushed out her long black hair that hung down to her waist. She slipped into a long emerald nightgown and laid down in her bed. Thoughts of her brother filled her mind and the tears started to fall and crash on her pillow. She remembered the funeral and the way his hand felt underneath hers. Then thoughts of her father came back and she remembered going to work at the ministry along with her dad. Everybody who worked with him would say how she was so pretty and how she was going to become a great witch someday. Her mother worked at a small massage parlor with a few of her closest friends and took Isabel with her everyday. Isabel remembered the days she would spend outside the parlor playing with a stray cat she had named Rascal. She cried herself to sleep but only dreamed of her future ahead of her and things that could never be. Dream:
Belle looked into a long wooden mirror and saw an older girl in a beautiful white wedding dress. She heard a knock on the door and went over to open it. When she opened the door Josh was standing there, a little older and still smiling. She placed a hand over her gaping mouth and ran up to hug him. She was now the same height and tears flowed down her cheeks as she felt his arms around her prooving he was real. She stepped back and he wiped the tear from her cheek. "I've been allowed to come back for today. Mom and Dad sent me to walk you down the aisle, and that is what I intend to do" he said holding his hand out for her. Another tear fell from her eye as she took it and walked out of the room with him. The door closed and all that was heard was her heels clicking on the stone floor. She had so many questions but could hardly speak "Do you watch over me?" she choked out.
"All the time" he smiled "How else would I have known you were getting married?" She laughed "Good point." She smiled and leaned her head against his shoulder "I missed you so much" she said trying to breathe properly. "I'm never far away ya know, my task is your guardian angel, so I'm always there" he said. She smiled to him "I have an angel?" she laughed "I think somebody fell asleep on the job that day." He laughed with her "I know everything about you Isabel. I've heard every sarcastic comment and every giggle since you were six. I've also heard the screaming, crying , crying and heartbreak to go along with that" he said. "Wow, you've heard that all and still love me?" she laughed. "Isabel, there is nothing you could do to make me not love you" he laughed. She sighed as they were about to enter where the music was playing. She had never thought about it before but 'whom was she marrying?' She looked down the aisle but couldnt see who it was.

When Belle woke up it was morning. She didnt know if it was just a dream or if Josh really was her angel. Either way she thought she'd say "I love you Josh" and walked to her dresser to grab her quiddich robes. She got dressed into her quiddich robes and put her hair up in a very strong hair clamp before grabbing her broomstick. She gave herself a once-over in the mirror before walking out of her room and flying up towards the school. She walked into the girls changing room and sat there until Luna and Brianna showed up ready for the match. They walked out and she saw Roger standing there polishing his handle. "How are you feeling today, ready to go?" she asked. "I'm fine, new line up. You flly out with me this time and when I go for the handshake you come along" he said and walked away from her.
She took a deep inhale and jumped when she felt a hand smack onto her butt. She jumped and turned around to see Maxwell with a large smile on his face. She gave him a glare and shoved him back against the wall "Touch me again and I'll hex you into graduation" she sneered. He simply licked his lips "I do like it rough" he smirked. Belle threw up her hands and dropped him so that he crashed to the ground. She heard "Belle, here, now!" and she walked up to where he was standing up front. The stadium music played and they both flew out first when their names were called. She saw Oliver watching from the curtain but never faltered as she landed in the middle beside Roger. She stood tall and still as Gryffindor team was called out and she didnt even blink as they called Olivers name. She could feel Roger watching her every move and kept it as cool as any other game. "You do know its not polite to stare right" she said turning to him.
"I'm watching to make sure you dont screw up our shot to win the quiddich cup this year. If we win this we are up against Slytherin for the cup" he said and turned to hold up his broom. Oliver flew down gracefully and landed in front of them both. He extended his hand for Roger to shake and they did while both staring each other down waiting for the other to falture. Roger then motioned for Isabel to shake his hand and took a step forward to him, extending her hand. She stared at him and almost through him. She kept a stiff face when all she wanted to do was to smile and hug him tightly. He gave her the same look and she turned away with Roger dropping his hand. She knew that she did a great job and allowed herself to give a victory smirk as she walked back towards the team.
"You did great Oakes, do your thing and we're sure to win" he said as they reached the others. She saw that Luna and the boys were smiling at her and agreed with Roger's words. "Alright, lets do this" she said laying her hand in the middle of the huddle with Rogers. "Ravenclaw" they all yelled and flew up to their positions. Belle stood in front of her goals and felt the keeper duties flowing through her. Her job was defensive, she had been playing this all her life and had become quite skilled with it. Madaam Hooch set loose the Quaffle and Belle watched as it was taken by the Gryffindor seeker and swiftly flown up towards her posts. The Quaffle was tossed and Belle shot out snatching the ball before it entered the hoop and she tossed it to Roger who flew it down towards Oliver. She watched as Oliver missed the first shot and wondered why he had missed it.
Through out te game Oliver had done very poorly as Isabel excelled in keeping the posts clear. Was he missing goals just so her team would win? "He would never do that, winning was the most important thing to him' she thought. She was only brought back to the present at the sound of a bell being rung out and a point going to Gryffindor sounded. She snapped up and saw Roger glaring at her so she flew back in front of the posts. The game finally ended with Harry Potter catching the snitch, yet the 150 points were not enough to catch up to Ravenclaw who won by 20 points. Belle flew down with Roger and the rest of their team as they triumphed in victory. Everybody went back to the changing rooms and got changed back into their original clothes. Belle had two hours before the next show and wanted to get a nap before time.
Belle was the last to leave the changing rooms and she saw Oliver waiting outsidethe door with a single red rose in his hands for her. She didnt say hello or take the rose but instead walked straight by him and up to the castle. As they were on the path he stopped her "Whats wrong with you?" he asked shocked at her. "Oliver, how could you do that out there! Not only did you cause Gryffindor the match but you made me feel like I was cheating" she said turning to show him how dissapointed she was. "Belle I'm sorry, I did it for us" he said handing her the rose. She dropped the rose "I didnt earn that, and I didnt earn that celebration in the common room tonight. See you at the show" she said and walked into the building and up towards Ravenclaw common room for her nap.
