Kadama: I am sorry it has taken so long to update! I've been terribly busy and I must admit I had no inspiration!!! ENJOY!
Oh and I keep forgetting my disclaimer!! I'm sure you all recognize which does not belong to me!!)
Chapter 3
They were soaring above the grounds now. Daisy had never really trusted anyone but Oliver, when it came to flying a broomstick. She felt at ease with him even though the Quidditch pitch was a tiny patchwork of green, thousands of feet below them.
They were alone - just Daisy, Oliver and the wide expanse of steely grey sky.
"Do you remember the first time you ever took me riding on your broomstick?"
Daisy leaned back a little, relaxing into Oliver's muscly chest. Her heart beat faster as he tightened his strong arms around her waist.
"Yeah, it was at the beginning of our second year - you said that Jezzabelle Catz would have a fit."
"She did! Do you know how crazy she was about you?"
Oliver laughed and rested his chin on top of her head. Her hair smelt like jasmine and honey.
They were weakening to each other every second.
There would be many more broomstick rides like this and, although, as the months flew by, their feelings grew more intense, both held back; partly because of fear at losing their friendship and partly because of the uncertainty they felt of mutual feelings.
******************Fifth year*********************** (A/N: I am aware that I have skipped to the Easter holidays of fifth year but nothing happened between Oliver and Daisy in fourth year - it was too soon for any direct romance. Hopefully there will be more in fifth year! ENJOY!!)
The Easter holidays were approaching fast and Oliver signed up immediately to stay at Hogwarts. He needed to familiarize himself with the Quidditch pitch, which had just undergone "huge" renovations (Oliver considered a new grandstand a threat to his defense of the goals).
He smiled as he saw Daisy's name on the sign up sheet. Of course. Now he remembered. Daisy's parents were in America on business for the Ministry of Magic, so Daisy, and her younger sister Katie, were staying at Hogwarts. The term was drawing to a rapid close and then, a week before Easter, Professor Mc Gonnagal called Daisy and Oliver to her office.
Both looked puzzled as they sat awaiting her arrival.
"Wonder what we've done wrong," whispered Daisy anxiously.
"Absolutely nothing, Miss Bell."
Professor Mc Gonnagal came sweeping into the room, accompanied by a young angular woman, dressed in satin robes. She had the same majestic air as Professor Mc Gonnagal but seemed more artistic.
"No need to look so scared Mr. Wood - one would think you had just been told that Quidditch was banned. "
"Karla." Here she turned to the stranger. "This is Mr. Oliver Wood, one of our finest Quidditch players, and Miss Daisy Bell, another of our greatest assets."
You two, this is Karla Aurorus."
Daisy's mouth dropped. Oliver looked confused. Professor Mc Gonnagal smiled.
"Now - both of you must be wondering why you have been called here today. This morning Professor Dumbledore informed me that the Association of Magical Education is holding a social evening and ball for 5th Year representatives from Europe and America. Each school must provide two of its students. Professor Dumbledore and I have discussed the matter and decided that you both display many of the qualities that Hogwarts aims to develop. The ball is held on Easter night and you will both be traveling by broomstick, as is traditional. I'm sure neither of you will object to that."
Here she allowed herself a smile.
" You are both required to wear very smart dress robes and be on your best behaviour. I am sure you will not let us down. Mr. Wood that is all - would you kindly wait outside; I have one more thing I need to discuss with Miss Bell."
Oliver nodded and walked over to the door, giving a last curious look at the mysterious Karla Aurorus. She seemed vaguely familiar.
After about ten minutes Daisy emerged looking pleased. She had a slightly flushed face that, in Oliver's opinion, made her look very appealing.
" What did she say Daise? And who was that Karla person? " Oliver asked as they made their way back to the common room.
Daisy laughed.
"That Karla person is the most famous and prestigious designer of dress robes in the world."
Oliver lost his bewildered look.
"And why was she here?"
"She was taking my measurements for dress robes. They're doing you tomorrow. I don't think Mc Gonnagal thought it would be appropriate for you to see me in my bra and undies."
Daisy smiled cheekily at the look on his face before climbing through the portrait hole.
Oliver blushed a bit as her figure disappeared through the hole.
I actually wouldn't mind seeing that sometime, thought Oliver, before cursing himself for what he'd been thinking.
(A/N: I am in the process of writing Chapter 4 so it will soon be up!! PLEASE REVIEW!!)
