Cornucopia of Love – Finally, Shana being late is a good thing!
I walked into charms and chose a seat in the back; I was just on time as I heard the teacher settle down the kids. I looked around to look for Shana; nope, she was probably still making out with Ron. I pulled out my charms book, quill, and parchment and began taking notes. The class drew quiet, until the door flew open. I looked up to see who it was; it was Pansy, and the only seat in the back that was left was right next to me. I watched as she walked to the back and took a seat next to me; I tried not to look at her; just sending three second glances every minute…It was getting harder to choke back my emotions and feelings for her.
"Alright, Everyone pair with the person on you're right. Were going to practice smoke charms today, turn to page 672." said Mr. Flitwhick.
I flipped the pages until I reached the correct page. I felt Pansy scoot closer to me and felt her lean forward to read the charm. I felt her breath on my neck; I wanted to fall back against the chair, but I stayed strong and tried to read. Just then I heard the door open; it was Shana. She looked around for me, until our eyes met. She saw I was sitting next to Pansy; she smiled and took the seat in the front. After a while of practicing different smoke charms, from different colors, to different puffs of smoke, to different colors and puffs. We finished practicing, so we had a few moments to do what we wanted. I saw Pansy tear a piece of parchment and turn so I couldn't see what she was writing. I just sat back and started putting things in my backpack, as the end of class drew nearer. Eventually I got bored, so I started twiddling my thumbs. As I sat there, twiddling my thumbs, people started emerging from there seats. I looked up and saw Pansy staring at me, but she looked away. I smiled weakly and just sat there. Right before Pansy got up; she slipped a note over to me and got up quickly. I watched as she walked out of the class room at a quick pace. Once I was the only one in the class room, I opened the note. It read;
Will you go to the Yule Ball with me?
Love,
Pansy
I didn't move, not once. I just sat there, reading the note over and over again, making sure I was reading it right. I smiled very weakly and stood up, staying very calm. Then I walked to the door and found Shana waiting for me.
"So, I suspect this is your favorite class now?"
I smiled widely and nodded. "Read this" I said, handing her the note. Shana read it and became wide-eyed as well. We both started jumping around in joy. After a minute, we both calmed down and started walking to you next class.
"Well, I guess for once, me being late was a good thing" said Shana smiling. I smiled back and we both headed to our next class…
