(an: Sorry in advance, this is short too. School sucks. There will be more, I just don't know how much more. Good news, I got an A on that journal. I ate a huge bowl of ice cream and treated myself to a game of Fireball to celebrate. Join S.P.A.N.K. M.E.)

Ch. 14

"You kissed me." I said in a monotone voice after he pulled away.

"Why, yes. Yes, I did." He answered me.

"Why?" I asked.

"Because I've decided I love you."

"Since when?" I asked with just a hint of disbelief in my voice.

"Since that day in the common room when you forgave me."

"That long."

"Yeah. I was working up the courage to ask you out when you started dating George. Now that you guys have broken up, I figure I better grab you before someone else does."

"How did you know George and I had broken up? We were going to wait until after today's game to tell you." I was surprised on how calm I was acting.

"I walked in on George and Alicia making out after practice Friday. I almost beat the crap outta George for cheating on you when they told me."

"So you decided to kiss me."

"Yeah, pretty much. And I would kinda of like some sort of response out of you, because this is kind of freaking me out. I hope you like me back, because this has been a bit of a crappy day so far, and I don't think I can take any more bad news."

I just sat there staring at him. I must be in shock. So. Many. Emotions.

Oliver Wood is in love with me.

He just asked me if I was in love with him.

We just lost a Quidditch match.

And all Oliver can think about is whether or not I'm in love with him.

I've always been in love with him.

But I'm just staring at him.

Do something!

I attacked him, throwing my arms around his neck and diving in for the kill.

I'm kissing Oliver Wood.

And it feels weird.

Damnit.

Why is it awkward?

He seemed to sense it too, because he pulled back.

"This feels weird."

"Yes it does."

"But I like it." He grinned.

He's mine.

"Me too." I said, kissing him again.

Ollie, the love of my life, was mine.

And that's how the Quidditch team, soaked to the bone, upset they lost, and worried about Harry, found me and Oliver snogging in the shower.

After I got over my initial embarrassment of being caught, I sighed.

What a day.
