When Belle awoke it was sunday and the day that she had to head back to Hogwarts and give up her room an the inn. She took a showrer and changed into a pair of black muggle jeans and a tight black shirt that said 'bad kitty' in silver letters across it. She brused out her long black hair and went to Rocket who was sleeping on her desk. She poked his chest and he lizily woke up and hooted at her "we're heading back to school, See you there" she said and opened her window for him to fly out. She then grabbed her bags and opened the door to see Adam and Chris standing there about to knock. "Came to say Hi" Chris smiled to her. "Well, I'm heading back to the castle, care to help?" she asked handing each a bag to carry. "Actually there is something we wish to discuss with you" Chris said taking her bag.
"There is something I want to tell you both too, or actually I'd rather show you when we get back to Hogwarts" she said biting her lip. "How about our news first" he said and they both walked in. Isabel sat down on the bed as they both took a seat in their chairs accross from her. Chris finally spoke up "We got an apartment for as soon as we graduate and we'd like you to move in with us." he said to her. Belle smiled "Really, and you guys will save my room while I'm at school next year?" she asked. They nodded and she jumped up to hug them. "Alright, now lets hurry back to the castle because I have to show you my surprise" she said grabbing a bag and heading out the door. The walk was full of the boys trying to guess what her surprise was but neither guessed right. They stopped at the Ravenclaw common room to drop off her bags before heading to the eight corridor on the fourth floor.
"Close your eyes" she said and they both gave her an empty stare. "Fine, dont." she said and continued first down the hall until she stopped on a picture of a smiling couple. "I braught you some visitors" Belle smiled to the picture. The boys walked over and looked in to see their parents smiling back at them. Chris looked at Belle shocked "How did you?" he choked out. Belle laughed "I didnt, Dumbledore did. He said that as an award for being so heroic that they were put into this frame" she said. "Best news is, that they portrait belongs to me and I choose for it to come home with us this summer" she said to them. The three of them sat there and caught up on old times. Belle told her mother about how she was sorted in Ravenclaw and not Slytherin. Her father was so proud of her for being on the quiddich team and becoming captain next year.
Isabel then talked to her mother about the play as her father talked to the boys. "Oh! and mom, I have a boyfriend now" she said and she had to giggle when her dad turned around shocked. Her mother smiled "So tell me about this boy" she asked her. "Well his name is Oliver Wood, and he plays keeper on the Gryffindor quiddich team" she said. "Wow, my first boyfriend was a Gryffindor" her mother said smiling "You also look Identical to me when I was younger." Belle laughed "Oliver tends to call me Eris" she smirked. Her mother laughed full heartedly "Your father still call me Eris, I guess we just look evil" she smirked. Belle recognized the smirk as her own and tried to keep a straight face.
"Mom,Dad, I'm very tired so I'm going to head to bed but I will be back before classes start tommorrow to check in with you both." she said yawning. "Goodnight Tinkerbelle" her father said. Belle would normally be ready to stab whomever called her that but let it slide seeing as it was her father. She walked back to the Ravenclaw common room alone and walked into see Roger still on the couch but now asleep. Nobody else was there so she decided to take him to his room. She walked over to where he was asleep and stirred him a little bit "Roger, come on wake up" she said nudging him. "Cho leave me alone" he said turning over. "Roger, its me.... Isabel" he said rolling him back. He open his one eye then the other "What time is it?" he asked. "Its late, and everybody is at dinner. Let me take you up to bed" she said helping him sit up. "I'm flattered Isabel, but your not my type" he said running an hand through his hair.
Isabel shook her head, "First of all that wasnt a sex invite, and second of all I'm every guys type" she said standing him up. He laughed and pu his arm around her as they walked up the stairs and into his dorm room. When they walked in Belle was about to drop him "Which bed is yours?" she heaved. "I wanted the pretty one but Marshall said no" he said angrily. "Alright, well that rules out one of them" she said rolling her eyes. "Alright, I'm chosing that one because right there is your broom" she said and helped him over. He landed on the bed with a thud and smiled. "Goodnight, captain" she said and turned to leave. "Wait! Come back, I need your help with one more thing first!" he said sitting up. Belle walked over "I'm not changing you for bed so dont even bother to ask" she said seriously.
"I wasnt going to ask you that, Why is your mind always in the gutters?" he asked confused. Belle closed her eyes, took a breath and said "What did you need help with Roger?" Roger nodded "Now thats more like it, could you stay and read to me?" he said smiling idioticly. Belle picked up a dictionary and dropped it in his lap. "Read to yourself, goodnight Roger" she said and walked out of the boys dorm and over towards the girls. She collapsed on her bed and didnt wake until morning.
The next week flew by and things were getting harder as finals were approaching. It was now Saturday morning and Belle walked down to the quiddich pitch to get ready for their match against Slytherin. Belle walked into the tent and changed quickly before the other girls even got there. She walked out to where she saw Roger waiting as people walked into the stands. "Ready to win this Roger?" she asked him. He nodded "Ever since I've been captain I've dreamed of winning the quiddich cup. I know your going to help me win this and I just want you to know that your the largest part of this team" he said now shifting his gaze to her. "You mean since Cho left" she said rolling her eyes. "I knew it before that, and now everybody is seeing beyond Cho and they see you" he said to her.
She smiled and gave him a hug "I dont think I can do the captain pep talk thing as well as you" Belle laughed. "You will rule differently, you can use the authority that I've given you for the year your left here" he said. "Yeah, I guess" she said letting go of him and backing up. She picked up her broom as the guys walked out. "Saw ya in the show last week Isabel and all I have to say was ouch" Terry said taking a sharp breath. Belle looked Shocked "That bad?" Terry laughed "No, that good. You still have that one long red skirt?" he asked raising his eyebrow. Belle laughed and Roger gave him a stern look "We're here for quiddich, not to oggle Isabel" he said rolling his eyes. Belle looked shocked "Excuse you?" she asked smiling.
The girls then walked out "Whats so funny?" Luna asked. Micheal nudged Isabel "Just picking on the little tramp" he said and laughed. Belle sneered at them both "Keep making jokes, you both know that I'm captain next year and I think that daily practices for the beaters might come in handy" she said blankly. They both looked shocked at her "Those jokes dont seem so funny anymore do they" she said and turned around to Roger. "Perhaps I should make my own authority" she said and walked by him towards the line up. Everybody else lined up and were called out and flew down to the middle where they were to shake hands. The Slytherin Keeper looked as if he had the mental capacity of a rhino. She saw that Draco stood beside him and sneered as she walked forward and stuck out her hand to shake his.
He refused to shake her hand "I wont hurt you this time Malfoy, I promise" she smirked. As he extended his hand she whipped hers back and walked back to her teammates. Roger walked back and they flew up to start the match. She knew that something was plotted for this and didnt want to let down Roger. This was his last chance and she wasnt going to blow it for him, she was determined to win. She blocked every goal and was dodging bludgers that were sent after her directly and just barely missed one as she missed a goal. Roger snapped his head and looked at her in disapproval. She felt shamed and flew ack on her guard to block the next one. They did a few more times until they had a good bit of points built up and were almost defeating them.
The score was 80 to 60 with Ravenclaw leading. Draco had spotted the snitch and was on the trail for it with Brianne close behind him. Luna had the quaffle up front and she was also watching Draco after the snitch. She saw Micheal hit the bludger and it made Draco swing way off course as Brianne clutched her fingers over the snitch. Belle was about to cheer when a large impact smacked into her that she realised was a bludger and out of pain slipped off the side of her broom and blacked out. When she awoke she was in the hospital wing and her brothers were sitting there with Oliver. She sat up and winced in pain "Ahhh" she said holding her ribs. The boys all got up and Chris pushed his way forward "Isabel, you have to sit back, Madaam Pompfrey is coming with your potion and she's going to heal your ribs" he said pushing her back.
"What's wrong with my ribs?" she said again wincing in pain. Oliver was on the other side of the bed "When the bludger hit you a few of your ribs were broken." he said laying a hand over the one she had on he abs. Chris didnt know what to do "Oliver, can you and Adam give Belle and I a moment" he said. They both nodded and walked out into the lobby to take a seat. "I saw that" she said angrily throwing her head back in the pillow. "What did you see?" he said rolling his eyes. "What is your major malfunction with my boyfriend?" she asked angrily. "Belle, right now is a time you need family. Plus last week dad told me to watch over you and here you are with three broken ribs" he said sitting in the chair beside her bed. "Madaam Pomfrey can fix that easily and I'll be back in Ravenclaw common room tonight" she said relaxing a little bit.
Chris got up and let Oliver in along with Madaam Pomfrey "Isabel take this potion dear" she said and handed her a vial. Isabel drank the liquid within and felt her ribs heal and a warmness overcome her. She took a deep inhale and exhale and smiled. "I guess that means your feeling better?" she said and walked out of the room laughing. Belle hugged Oliver "I did it! Ravenclaw got the cup!" she yelled happily. Oliver smiled and sat down on the end of her bed. "You may want to be thanking Roger for catching you, that was a nasty fall" he said to her. Her smile grew wider "I bet Roger is beside himself with joy" she smiled. Oliver shook his head "He isnt, in fact he's out in the waiting room" he said. Belle sighed "can you send him in please?" she asked. He gave her a kiss on the forehead and walked out. Moments Roger walked in and sat down beside her "Quit it" she said to him. He looked up shocked at her "What?" he asked.
"You know what I mean, You've wanted this for seven years. So why are you so sad?" she asked him. "Belle, I'm the captain of the team, my players are priority number one." he said. "Yeah I understand that, but I'm fine, and your missing out on a whole lot of gloating" she smirked. They both laughed and he stood up "So when are they letting you out?" he asked. "Tonight, before dinner, she wants to see if I'm still in pain at all" she said rolling her eyes. "Oh, thanks for catching me" she smirked. "Your welcome" he said and headed for the door. "Who shall I send in next?" he asked. Belle grinned "How about all of my adoring fans?" she said putting her hands behind her head stretching. "Oliver good enough?" he asked laughing at her. Belle stuck out her tounge "I guess he'll do" she said and smiled as Roger laughed on his way out.
Oliver spent the entire day with her and she was released before supper. When they exited the hospital wing she was holding his hand and pulling him down the hall. "You are aware that supper is the other way, right?" he asked. She was out in front of him pulling him along behind her. "I wasnt heading for supper, I've got something more in mind" she smiled. They came into the eighth corridor and Belle stopped in front of the portrait of her parents. She pulled Oliver so that his arm was around her and she smiled when her mother said "So this is Oliver?" Oliver looked into the picture then back at Isabel and knew it was her mother from appearance. "Isabel, you sure did pick a handsome boy" she smiled to him. She saw Oliver blush a little and started to giggle at him. "Oliver, these are my parents" she told him.
"Nice to meet you" he said to them both. "So how did you an Izzy meet?" her father asked. Oliver started laughing and looked at her "Izzy?" he laughed. She gave him a glare and he stopped laughing at once and looked back to the portrait where her mother was laughing. Isabel laughed and spoke up "Oliver and I first met in this one hall, everyday we would walk around this one corner at the same time and I would always run into him. Usually I'd gracefully fall on my butt and he would help me up." she laughed. After a little bit of talking they left and went down for supper when there were only a few students left. The whole Ravenclaw table was empty so she had him sit with her. They ate supper then he walked her back to Ravenclaw common room. They had walked down the hall with his arm around her waist and her arm around his. She suddenly got a smirk and took off running pulling him behind her.
She turned a corner and made running for a dead end in the wall. She could feel Oliver tense up and starte giggling as they ran straight through it into a narrow corridor. She turned around and saw his shocked face "This is my shortcut" she smirked. "Where are we going now?" he asked. "We arent going anywhere, I just wanted you alone" she said and pushed his back up against the wall. "I wonder why" he said smirking. Belle laughed "Oh I think you know why" she said and kissed him hard. She felt him kiss back and was suddenly in bliss. She felt as if she was being raised up off the floor and smiled when she felt his arms snake around her and pull her in closer. They only snapped apart when they heard a somebody passing by the corridor yelling at somebody else. "Well blackmailing either hasnt worked so things will soon heat up for the keepers" they said and continued walking.
Belle snapped her gaze back to him "You were blackmailed to lose to Ravenclaw werent you?" she asked him. He sighed, nodded, and leaned back against the wall. Tears welled up in Belle's eyes "When Malfoy blackmailed me I told you, is there any reason you couldnt do the same for me?" she asked him. "Belle, he was going to have his father fire my parents from the ministry" he said stepping up to her. "Yeah and I almost lost the love of my life, but why should you give a damn" she said and walked out of the wall. She arrived back at the common room and went laid down in bed awhile before drifting soundlessly off to sleep.
The next week were finals and Belle only saw Oliver once through the entire week. She simply kept walking when he said hello to her. Today was now the last day of school and Belle was watching her brothers graduating. She sat in the stands as Adam walked onto stage. She jumped up and whistled when his name was called and she saw him blush when he saw her. Now Chris was called and she continued screaming and aplauding but instead of blushing Chris winked and gave her a wave. She laughed and when she sat back down she saw that Oliver was sitting beside her. "What are you doing here?" she asked still looking at her brothers. "Is it wrong for me to love you still?" he asked her. She looked back at him shocked "What are you talking about Oliver? You know that I love you still, I just dont know why you cant tell me things" she said wiping a piece of her hair back from her face. "How about you, you ever going to spill everything to me?" She smiled to him "Someday I will" she said and kissed him. The wind blew by them both as the class graduated that year and things were now different for them both. Nothing would be the same anymore, and they were now something more.
