A.N./ Hey everyone! Here's Ch.6! Read, Review, and Enjoy! Remember I started this fic b4 we knew that Ginny's real name is Ginerva. I still have as Virginia because I've written so much.
Chapter 6
Bridget Lynn Potter woke up to someone singing in the shower. Sure she was use to this, but usually she hears Ginny's voice…not a male one.
The in hit her, she was in Oliver Wood's private room and they'd slept together the night before.
'No!' She said to herself, 'It was a dream. A really good dream, but a dream.'
She looked at her surroundings and around her…she was in a bigger four poster and she was naked with the covers over her. She had defiantly slept with Oliver last night. 'Shit!' She swore to herself, 'My parents are probably disowning me at the moment.'
Bridget said a self dressing spell, Muggle jeans and a pink top. Good enough. She was in such a hurray that she left her clothing from the night before and her present.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Bridget was now beating on her aunt's office door.
"Bridget? What are you doing here? How did you know Roselyn and I would be here?"
"Figured," she said with a shrug. "Uncle Sirius is off on business stuff."
Bella nodded.
"Can I come in?"
"Certainly."
Bridget saw her little cousin in her high chair, "Ma ma ma ma ma!"
"Talking?"
"Just a few words, but mostly gibberish. So what's bothering you?"
"What do you mean?" Bridget asked innocently.
"Well…first, you have that look on your face that your father had, when he's sure he did something wrong but not really that sure. Second, you are never up at eight in the morning when you don't have to be."
Bridget sighed, "Alright. Isleptwitholiverwoodlastnight."
Arabella blinked, "Maybe you'll have better luck with Roselyn."
"Why's that?"
"Because I don't speak gibberish like the two of you. Now speak English."
"Fine, I slept with Oliver Wood last night."
Arabella smiled, "Now as it really that hard to say?"
"Yes."
"Why's that?"
"You're like the mum I never knew and I know my mum and dad are probably looking down on me in disgust."
Arabella shook her head, "I don't think so."
"Why not? I know you and Uncle Sirius will probably think less of me now too."
Arabella hugged her niece, "Never sweetheart. Just don't mention our conversation to Sirius, Anthony, or Harry."
"Why not?"
"Because we'd find Oliver dead in a ditch."
"A what?"
Bella shook her head, "Muggle thing. Tell you about it later. Anyways I was younger than you when I lost my virginity."
"Really?"
Bella nodded, "End of my fifth year. Sirius and I had been fighting and it was a party in Gryffindor Common Room. James had just won us Quidditch Cup, both of us were a bit tipsy. We apologized to one another, next thing I know we were in his bed. I wouldn't talk to him for weeks."
"Why not?"
"Sirius was a player in school before he got with me, and I was waiting on him to dump me since he got his way with me. But he didn't, he loved me. I've told you before I was p regnant when we graduated and Sirius wanted me to marry him."
"I refused to marry him just because I was pregnant. A week later Lucius Malfoy threw a curse at me in Diagon Alley and I fell and lost the baby."
"I'm so sorry."
Arabella sighed, "It was a long time ago. Besides you can't cry over spilled milk."
"But my mum and dad waited until their Wedding night."
"One, you mum wasn't your dad's first. Second, they only waited because they had to."
"What?"
"Your mum and dad were Head Boy and Girl. James was Captain of Gryffindor Quidditch team and star player. Lily was part of the Literary Club and President of the Charms Club. They were both so busy in school that they never had the chance to before they graduated.
"They were married on July 1st and we graduated on June twenty-third.
"They were both ready for months, and Lily suggested since they only had a day and a week left they should just wait until the Wedding night. And that's why the did.
"But you were both in live. You with Sirius and my mum with my dad.
Bella smiled, "Are you trying to actually tell me that you don't love Oliver?"
"I don't know!" She whined, "I remember the dream that told me I'm destined to Oliver…"
"No." Bella interrupted, "You are not destined to anyone. You had that vision when you were trying to decide between Oliver and Blaise. All that told you was that Oliver is a better choice than Blaise."
"So you're saying that I might not even end up with Oliver?"
Bella nodded, "There is a possibility. There is a possibility you will and there is a possibility you won't. All depends on you."
"Well why am I the one that always messes everything up?"
"I use to think the same. Lily always had an easier ride in my eyes. Lily was the top girl in our class, she was Prefect, she was Head Girl, she found James, married him, and had you guys. I always knew I loved Sirius but I was too headstrong and stubborn to realize it."
"Me too."
"I know," Bella laughed. "You take after me."
"So it wasn't a mistake to sleep with Oliver?"
"Do you think it was Bridget?"
"I don't know."
"The there is your answer."
"Huh?"
"You have to come up with your own answer."
"But what about Neville."
Arabella smiled, "I saw you last night. All night you were furious with Neville, about his costume and that he was pissed. But as soon as you started dancing with your mystery man, who ended up to be Oliver, you whole demeanor changed.
Bridget left and was surprised to see Oliver waiting outside for her. "No fair!" He pouted, "I was going to bring you breakfast in bed this morning. Why did you leave without even telling me goodbye?"
She blushed, "Sorry I was just confused."
Oliver nodded knowingly, "I knew it." He began to pull his hair out, "Damn, it! I knew it! I pushed you, Merlin I pushed you into this!"
Bridget walked over to him and took his hands into hers, "No you didn't. Everything I said to you last night came straight from the hear. I just felt weird this morning."
"So what's going to happen with us?"
"Us?" Bridget asked and Oliver's face fell. "You know I'm with Neville."
"Him again!" Oliver yelled pulling his hands away from Bridget's hands. "Do you remember last night!"
"Of course I do."
"Damn it Bridget! I love you!"
"I lo…"
"No, don't you dare say it! If you loved me you dump him for me."
"It's not that…"
"Oh yes it is that simple."
Bridget got equally mad, "You act as if it was your first time too! Yeah bloody right! You were Hogwarts big start back in your day. Add that you were a Professional Quidditch Star! You had girls flinging to you left and right!"
"That doesn't mean I slept with them! I was your first and you were mine!" He yelled back, "I was a fool to love you!" He whispered, "Damn it Bridget. I bloody loved you. You're just bloody scared of what's right here." He took her hand and put it over her heart, "This is you and me. Inside here is my love for you and your love for me. You're scared because you are afraid this will go away so you play with someone you don't even care for. I loved you with my whole heart…"
He walked off dropping a bag, in it was her clothes from the night before and her charm bracelet he'd given to her with his whole heart.
Oliver had loved her and she had loved him, and she pushed him away as soon as he got close enough to her heart. He was right.
A week after Bridget's fight with Oliver, she came clean to her friends and family. They were all in Susan and Draco's little suite. Susan, Ginny, and Adora looked a little bit shocked.
"There's not shame in it Bridget."
"How would you know Susan? You waited until you were married to Draco."
"Only because I was afraid he'd leave me if we did it before we were married."
"Bridget, Harry and I…."
"Don't finish that sentence, Gin. I don't want to know if you had Harry have or even thought about it. Too gross. I'd rather believe that the two of you live the life's of nuns and monks." Susan nodded.
"Do you love him?" Adora asked.
"Of course I do."
"have you talked to him since the fight?"
"Once."
"When?"
Flashback
Bridget never broke up with Neville and he had no clue what had ever happened between herself and Oliver. In fact she hadn't seen Oliver since their fight.
Neville stopped in the middle of the hallway, "Why are you crying?"
"No," she sniffled. "Allergies…must be some dust around." He nodded.
"Miss Potter?" Came a questioning voice and Bridget looked up, she could have screamed. There was Oliver and he looked as upset as she had been feeling. He looked even more hurt when he saw the necklace back around her neck, his charm bracelet missing, and Bridget's hands connected with Neville's.
"P…Professor Wood," she said nodding and she dragged Neville away.
Flashback
"Oh dear," Ginny sighed. "That had to odd."
"That's not even the word for it." She sighed, "I've totally screwed up everything."
"Don't worry," Susan said smiling at her sister. "You two are destined for one another."
"No," she sobbed. "Bella told me that I am not destined for any certain person."
"But…but your vision!" Ginny gasped.
"It was just telling me that Oliver was a better choice than Blaise."
"Wow," Susan and Ginny said stumped when Adora had agreed with Bridget.
Classes were harder, but they all managed. Adora's visions got stronger and darker, and she thanked Merlin that Bridget and Susan's powers hadn't gotten as powerful as hers had.
Wedding preparations were still going on and the girls had planned that at the next Hogsmede trip they'd get themselves measured for their dresses for Ginny and Harry's wedding. Invitations went out and Bridget go her's that morning:
Please help us celebrate the joining of two very special souls.
When the Arthur and Molly Weasley's daughter
Virginia Noel
Will join in matrimony to Lily and James Potter's son
Harry James Potter
On the 2nd of January in the year of nineteen hundred and ninety-eight.
Reception will be followed at 7:30pm
In the confusion of all the Wedding plans, Bridget had forgotten about her problems with Oliver. It was only when she reached her bed at night that she would break down and start crying herself to sleep. Her roommates didn't say a word on the orders of Ginny. Ginny told them to let it be, Bridget didn't like people to hear or see her cry. Bridget had also taken different routes so she wouldn't have to see Oliver at all.
China…
"Master," the two spies said bowing down.
"We come with good news for you," the first spy spoke.
"What would that be?"
"We each have received invitations to the Potter/Weasley Wedding, as we are 'good' friends." The second spy said still bowing down.
"Good, we'll attack on their 'joyous' day."
America…
November twelfth would mean everything to Autumn Lewis-Crabbe forever. This had been Autumn's wedding date and Salem School had believed the whole story. Crabbe would be finishing his school at Salem with Autumn.
Autumn was happy with her little family, everything was turning out great for her.
Dead wrong was the game, and Autumn and Vincent Crabbe were playing.
No one would be able to hid from Lord Voldemort with ought the help of Albus Dumbledore and The Order of The Phoenix. They'd find out soon enough.
Hogwarts…
Roselyn's first birthday party was held on her birthday, November 24th. Her birthday party was being held at Arabella's secret quarters in Hogwarts. Sirius took the day off, so Anthony did all of Sirius's duties and wasn't able to make the birthday party. Roselyn had gotten many birthday presents from Mummy and Daddy, Grandpa P, cousins Harry, Ginny, Adora, Ron, Susan, Draco, Breeanna, and Bridget.
Mummy and Daddy got Roselyn lots of toys, and a magical kitty cat. The kitten was all whit and was named 'Snowball.'
Harry got Roselyn a baby broom that only went two feet high and once she got a bit older it would go a little bit higher. Bella didn't look to happy, but Sirius looked thrilled.
"Prongsie got you and your sister one each for you guys first birthday party." Bella groaned and remembered how angry Lily had been with James for getting the twins a 'dangerous' toy.
Ginny and Ron had gotten Roselyn a baby wand and every time she moved it around pretty sparks would fly out.
Adora go the baby a picture book, Ron muttered, "Go figure."
Draco, Susan, and Breeanna got Roselyn a tiny god necklace that had 'Baby's First Year,' on it.
Grandpa P sent his present with Daddy, a big teddy bear that would speak gibberish or English back to the baby.
Bridget got Roselyn a pretty green velvet dress with matching baby shoes, and a headband. To match those beautiful 'Evans' eyes.
Cake was eaten and presents opened, the party was about to end when Oliver Wood entered with a present in his arm. Bridget wanted to turn invisible and tried to hid behind her big sister.
"Hello Roselyn dear," he said cooing at her. "How is your first birthday party?" She started babbling in baby talk and he chuckled at her. "Looks like she got plenty of presents." Oliver said looking around for Bridget. Bella nodded in agreement and noticed he frowned when he couldn't find Bridget.
"What took you so long?" Harry asked.
"Had to give an extra lesson to a first year that can't get the hang of the broom yet." Oliver turned to Arabella and Sirius, "Can you tell Bridget I stopped by."
"But…" Sirius began and Bella stomped on his foot.
"We will."
Roselyn began crawling away from her presents and started yelling. "Be! Be! Be! Be!" And the baby had found Bridget.
"Found my wand!" Bridget said lamely as she jumped up with her wand in her left hand and Roselyn on her right hip. Everyone looked at Bridget oddly. "Hello my cute little cousin. Oliver!" she said in mock surprise, "When did you get here?"
"When you were looking for you wand," he said with sarcasm. "Goodbye everyone, and he nodded at Bridget. "Later."
Ron, Harry, and Sirius looked at Bridget oddly. But all the girls knew what was going on.
Bridget sighed and gave Roselyn to Ginny, "I'll be back guys."
She ran to catch up with Oliver and saw that he was about to enter his chambers.
"Oliver!" He turned around and the look on his face broke her hear.
"Can I help you Miss Potter?"
"Oliver!" She whined.
"Professor Wood to you, Miss Potter."
"Why don't you talk to me like a human being!"
"Let's see…you say you love me, break my heart, continue dating that block head, and hid from me at your one year old cousin's birthday party. Then she ratted you out and you act like you've been looking for your wand. I'm not playing these childish games anymore with you Bridget."
"Oliver…"
"Go."
"Oliver!" she had tears in her eyes and she could tell this was breaking his heart too.
"I was foolish to think that this could work. To think miracle child, Bridget Potter would ever like me. No instead she's with dunderhead Longbottom."
"Oliver wait!"
"No Bridget," he said shaking his head. "I've waited forever for you to know how I feel about you, I've waited now almost a month for you now. I can't wait anymore…we're breaking each other's hearts." He walked in his quarters and slammed the door before she could say another word.
There's a song that's inside of my soul
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinite cold
But You sing to me over and over and over again
Bridget fell to the ground as she felt her heart being broke all over again and Oliver could hear her weeps outside and it broke him down too.
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands
and pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now you're my only hope
He didn't know what to do, every time he let her back in she broke his heart and she ended up breaking her own. Why couldn't things go back to when they were so stupid and didn't know they loved one another?
Sing to me the song of the stars
Of Your galaxy dancing and laughing
and laughing again
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that You have for me over again
When he went outside he found that she'd cried herself asleep, that she'd cried her concealment charm off and to see her eyes were black. She was killing herself inside as he had been.
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope
He picked her up from the ground and she was so limp, but fragile like a china doll. He kicked the door open and kicked it back close with his feet, Bridget still in his arms.
I give You my destiny
I'm giving You all of me
I want Your symphony
Singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs I'm giving it back
Neville looked shocked and he stepped back from the corner he'd been hiding behind. Bridget loved Wood and Wood loved Bridget? Not his Bridget, how could Wood love her when he treated her just as he had and let her cry herself asleep outside his door on the cold dirty floor. 'But Wood came back for her.' Said the little voice in his head.
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours
Now Wood had taken Neville's girlfriend back into his room to do Merlin knows what. Wood would pay, Wood would pay for stealing Bridget's heart away from Neville and taking it in for himself.
I pray to be only yours
Oliver had laid Bridget on the bed delicately and looked at his perfect china doll sleeping peacefully. Her eyes fluttered open slowly and she gasped to see those special gray eyes looking back at her, "Oliver?"
I pray to be only yours
Neville swore on his parents lives that he would seek revenge on Bridget Potter for breaking his heart and on Oliver Wood for taking the most beautiful girl away from him.
I know now you're my only hope
