Belle napped for over an hour and rushed down to the common room as fast as she could. She saw that the party was just dying down and that Roger was enjoying the company of Cho as she congradulated him on his win. She simply rolled her eyes as she made to exit the common room. "Belle! Hold up!" she heard Roger say. She turned around as he was prying himself off of cho and trying to escape the couch. "I have to get going if I'm going to be there before show time" she smiled to him. "I was just wondering if you needed somebody to walk you there" he said looking a little tipsy. "I think its best for you to go back and sit down with Cho" she said moving him back towards her. Cho laid a hand on his shoulder as soon as he hit the couch. "are you sure Belle?" he asked her. Belle nodded "I'm a big girl Roger, just stay here with Cho, and try to behave" she laughed as she walked out of the common room.
Belle walked through the halls of Hogwarts and along the way people stopped her and said they were going to the show tonight. She was polite to everybody she met along the way except when she came upon Malfoy. Belle was thinking about her up coming match against Slytherin and didnt notice the Slytherin quiddich team cross her path. She was only braught to attention when she felt a firm hand whip her around. She came face to face with Draco Malfoy "I dont see your brother here to save you now" he sneered to her mere inches from her face. "I dont need then to protect me" she said stomping on his foot. He grimaced and dropped his grip on her arm as she whipped out her wand. "I know all about your past, Oakes, even the death of your parents." he said staring at her. Belle lowered her wand "What all do you know of me Malfoy?" she said still standing firm.
"I know that your parents and brother were killed by death eatars. I also know why they were killed" he said standing tall and taking a step towards her. Isabel placed her wand inside her pocket "I know why my parents died, they stuck up for something they believed in. They refused to become the swine of the wizarding world." she sneered. Malfoy advanced on her knocking her back towards the wall "You'll do well to not refer to us as swine" he said gripping both of her arms. She looked him straight in the eyes and almost burnt a whole threw him. "Why must you try and intimidate me" he sneered. "Probably because I can" she smirked. Malfoy released her "Your family died for being traitors, they were Slytherins and in being so were destined to become deatheaters, as are your brothers." he smirked.
Belle advanced on him "My brothers have a mind of their own and dont follow what their father says. They are more than just a dummy repeating for father" she said leaning back waiting for a reply. "Perhaps because the one they did have was not fit to be called a wizard" he spat. Belle turned and hammered him with a slap to the face. "My father was a hardworking wizard who loved his family more than you will ever know" she said to him who laid upon the floor. She moved above where he lay and stare at him in the face "become used to the view Malfoy, you will always end down on the ground" she fumed. "What is going on here!" she heard and looked up to find the Gryffindor prefect, Percy Weasley. Belle looked up and felt as if she was snapping out of a daze. She looked shocked as Percy helped Draco off the floor "Hands off Weasley, if I wanted poor help, I'd have called for a house elf" he sneered shaking Percy off him. "Ms. Oakes, care to inform me of why you were standing over Malfoy?" he asked.
"Malfoy slipped and I was trying to help him up, Malfoy is just too good to get help it seems" she sneered to him. "Is this true Mr. Malfoy?" Percy asked him. "It mostly certainly is not" he said brushing off his robes. Percy looked back towards isabel "Another story you wish to feed me?" he asked. "What makes you think that Malfoy would admit it!" she said angrily. "I'm sorry Ms. Oakes but its your word against Malfoy's. I will have to take house points and you will be serving detention some day next week." he said writing her name down in a little book. "I saw the whole thing and what she said was true" came a voice behind her. She turned around and saw Oliver standing there. She smiled "See Percy, now I really must go, I have to be at the theater very soon and I'm already going to be late" she said and waved goodbye.
When Belle arrived at the thater her sides were hurting and she was breathing heavily her whole way back to the dressing room. Anna, her hair stylist was already waiting for her. "Sorry Anna" she said running into the closet and pulling out the long red skirt for her first scene. Anna had started on Belle's hair as she was walking around getting ready. She even followed her when there was a knock at the door. Belle opened the door and Oliver was standing tere with his parents. "we just wanted to say good luck, we will see you out there" he said and gave her a kiss on the cheek. "Bye hun" she said as she walked back and sat in her chair to apply her make up for the scene. "Some man you have there" Anna said. "Yeah, Oliver really is great" she replied. Anna then had Belle's hair finished and it was time to walk out to the stage. "Those arent nerves, are they Isabel? You did this last night." Anna said. "Oliver's parents are out there and they are about to see me strip down, not a great first impression" she said looking into the mirror.
Anna nodded and walked out of the room with her towards the stage. When the curtains fell she watched as the next scene was set and ready for her. She walked up and sat on the large red pillows and cleared her throat as the white lace fell before her. She was up high veiwing the crowd and below her she saw the three girls ready to start. The curtains opened and she gazed out to see that the large auditorium was packed with what seemed to be all of Hogwarts. She saw that the headmaster was up front watching her earnestly. She felt really bad about baring everything to the whole school but there was no going back now. The three girls emerged from the side stage each with an old victorian chair and sat down below her. They looked to her and a smirk crossed her face as she oulled on a long golden tassle. A noise echoed through the audience and three shirtless men walked out and stood along the stairs leading up towards her.
Belle watched each girl trying to sway the man from their post but they stood firm without even passing a second glance. Belle rang the tassle once again and the three men turned towards her as the girls walked back towards their chairs. Belle's right hand flicked up and the lace before her parted to reveil her. She stepped out and looked down to the first man. She looked out towards the crowd and smirked before blowing them a kiss. Belle laid her hand on the first man's cheek and blew a kiss to him. Belle then turned around and heard him topple backwards as she walked back up to the pillows. She turned back around when she heard the girls begging for her to keep going. Belle smirked and walked towards hte second man who seemed stronger than the first. A few steps from the second man Belle spun quickly making her skirt flare up so that her legs were shown to the entire crowd. She heard the audience gasp and took it as a great sign. She walked up and spoke "Renado von hadsa, len wa" she said and blew hot air accross his lips that were now puckering towards her.
She walked from him and heard him topple backwards as she moved onto guy number three. She stopped in front of him and saw that he backed away from her. She thought a second and took a step backward herself. Her hands snaked along down her body until they landed on the button on her skirt. She pushed the button and spun again having the skirt flare and break apart crashing to the floor. She was now in the small red shorts and walked back towards him. She swooped in and ran her tounge along his neckline. She blew cold air on his wet neck and smirked as she saw him shiver. She spun on her heeel to walk away and licked her lips as he fell over. Belle then walked up the stairs and sat back on her pilow as the theree girls followed her. The three girls sat before her and looked to her in awe as the scene ended with the drop of her lace curtains.
Belle got up and ran back towards her dressing room to get ready before the next scene. It didnt take long before she was back out on stage enjoying her last night of the play. School was soon ending and she had lots of things to think about like her upcoming match against Slytherin. Her largest problem was about where she would be going this summer. When her parents and brother dies her brothers and her were taken to her mother's sister's house out in the country. This year her brothers would be leaving and she would be all alone over summer. This was something she couldnt tolerate, and didnt want to think about at this moment. She ran back out and the rest of the play went great without any problems. The end scene was still the hardest and she was glad when it was over.
The play was over now and she was back in her dressing room for the last time packing up her things to take home. She heard a knock on her door and opened it to see Proffessor Dumbledore standing there. "Good evening Professor" she said looking shocked. "Would you mind if I came in?" e asked standing before her. "Of course Professor" she said opening the door for him to enter. She saw that he had a package wrapped in bright red wrapping. "I have recieved a present to put up in the school but I wish for you to keep it instead" he said hanind her the package. She unwrapped it to see that it was a portrait of her parents. She smiled as she saw them waving to her and smiling. A tear fell from her eye as she looked up the Dumbledore in disbelief. "How did you?" she choked out. "Your parents were given awards for standing up against evil, one of their awards is that they may see their daughter whenever they see fit" he smiled.
A huge grin was plastered accross her face "and what of Josh, when is he coming?" she asked. "I'm very sorry, but your brother wont be attending them" he sighed. "What? Why cant Josh be here, I want to see Josh again" she sobed to him. "My dear, Josh has a larger job in heaven and isnt able to be parted with" he smiled to her. She looked down to her parents smiling faces and nodded. "Ms. Oakes, the school has a policy on portraits. They wont be able to stay with you until school has ended. I will keep them hung on the fourth floor, eighth corridor" he said standing up. Belle gave the picture a kiss "I love you both, and I promise to visit" she said as she handed the picture to Dumbledore. "Good day Ms. Oakes" he said and walked out of her dressing room. Things had suddenly gone from tragic to great in a matter of seconds and a smile creeped accross her face as she sat in her chair.
Dumbledore had left the door open and Belle was brought back to reality when she saw Oliver appear in the doorway with his parents behind him. She jumped up and into Olivers arms as his parents watched in the doorway. "Another great show" Oliver said releasing her. Belle who was still in her wedding dress smiled as his parents walked up to her. "Isabel, You were Divine this evening, a little scandalis, but good girls always are" his mother smirked. "Thank you" she laughed. "Mom, Dad, Isabel needs to change before she can leave so can you give us a second please. I will meet you back at the inn in about an hour" Oliver said to his parents. They agreed and stepped outside as Belle stepped over towards her closet for her clothes to wear back to Hogwarts. "Care to tell me what the tiff with Malfoy was all about" Oliver said sitting in her chair.
"Just Malfoy being the arrogant prick he knows he is" she said walking out fully clothed. "It was more than that, when I saw you there was more than anger." he said looking up at her. She started gathering up the things on her vanity and not answering him. "I'm guessing by the silent pause that you would like me to drop the Malfoy subject?" he asked. "Why ask you to drop it, If I did then you would just keep thinking about it anyway" she said turning around and putting on her boots. "Are you angry at me or Malfoy?" he asked her angrily. She looked up to him with hatred in her heart, "I'm angry at both of you" she sneered zipping up her boot.
"What did I do?" he asked standing up. "You keep asking questions and quizzing me while he keeps mocking my family's suffering as if it were beneath his own. He has no idea how much we have suffered, and I dont even wish that much pain on him." she said pulling her hair up into a pony tail. "and I suppose, you wont tell me either will you. Your just going to keep it to yourself and handle this all alone." he said to her. "Yes Oliver, I'm not going to tell you now, I may sometime in the future but not now. I'm not over it yet and when I finally am I'll talk about it" she said as a tear slipped down her cheek. Only then did Oliver understand and a hurt look crossed his face as he dropped his arms to his sides. "I'm sorry" he said and moved closer towards her to give her a hug. She took a step back and stared up at his sorrow filled face. She wanted no more pain so walked forward and wrapped her amrs around him to rid them of it all.
As she did her windowflew open and in came a Rocket, her owl, with a letter. She looked over and held out her arms for him to land. When he did he dropped the letter and she opened it. It was from the theater and there was to be a farewell party this evening and she was invited to being along one guest with her. "Feel like going to a party?" she asked him as she read further on in the letter. "Sure, I'll have to get ready though" he said. "Me too, its says formal" she sighed. "We still have two hours before, wanna go back to the Inn and take a nap for about an hour?" he asked. She smirked "Does this mean you will share a bed with me tonight?" Oliver laughed "I was thinking the floor" he smiled.
"Alright, but lets get going" she said as they headed out of her dressing room and made for the Inn. when they entered they both walked up to her room and Oliver left to tell his parents of his plans. He grabbed his dress robes and walked back over towards Belle's room and she sighed as she laid down on her bed. "Can I atleast have a pillow?" he asked. "Fine, but you will have to come and get it" she smirked. He walked over to her and kneeled over the bed to where she had his pillow. At the last second she dropped the pillow and wrapped an arm around him pulling him to her. He was now on top of her on her bed and she was smiling "What makes me think you tried that on purpose?" he asked. "Oliver, what makes you think I'd dare try such a thing' she smirked. She then kissed him and felt his resistance give way.
They parted only to breathe "I've got you" she whispered into his ear. He sat up and looked at her, "Alright, but we are both tired and need this nap so we have to sleep during this time" he said laying down beside her. She rolled onto her side and laid her head upon his chest and her arm around his waist. She gave his cheek a kiss and they both drifted off to sleep. Their alarm clock rang an hour and she woke with a large smile on her face. She rose first as he laid still in bed. She gave him a kiss on the cheek "Come on Oliver, its time to wake up" she said and walked over towards her bag where she had a very long black dress. She walked into the bathroom and slipped into the dress. It clung to her perfectly and there was a tiny train to it at the bottem. It has belonged to her mother and when she looked int othe mirror she almost saw her mother staring back at her. Belle tamed her long black hair to lie down flat and she put on a diamond pendant she picked up last summer at a shop is Diagon Alley. She walked out and looked at Oliver still sleeping.
She walked over and sat beside him on the bed. This time she kissed his soft lips and smiled against them when he kissed her back. He opened his eyes and got a large grin when he saw her. "Wow, what a great way to wake up" he smiled and she stood up to get his dress robes. She giggled and as she turned to leave he pulled her back onto the bed with him. "Resistance is harder when you just woke up" she smiled to him. "What resistnace" he laughed and kissed her hard. She finally broke the kiss and stood up "Normally I would have no problem with this but we will be late, and I want to stop by and visit your parents once more before we go" she said to him.
He sighed and stood up to get dressed. Oliver's dress robes were dark blue and made of crushed velvet. She smiled when she saw him and he frowned because he didnt like getting dressed up. "You look hot" she laughed. "well you have a great body where as I dont, so whatever you wear will fit you nicely." Belle looked shocked then somewhat angry "You have a great body, and nobody says my man doesnt without hearing an earload about it" she said blankly. He laughed and hugged her tightly before they left the room and walked downstairs to find his parents. His mother and father smiled at seeing them both decked out for the party. "You both look great" she said covering her mouth in awe. Belle laughed again and they said they're goodbye's as they headed to the party.
When she walked in she heard the music playing a slow song so pulled Oliver out on the floor with her. People were wondering why she was dancing with Oliver when hours ago she had creamed him in quiddich. She laid her head on his shoulder and they danced the night away. Belle only stopped dancing with Oliver when asked for one dance by Blaise. It was now late and Belle was ready to go home and fall straight to sleep. She was walked to her door by Oliver and gave him one last kiss before saying goodbye. She walked into her room slipped into a silk night gown and laid down in bed and was asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.
