Chapter 11
Holiday Romance
Caras POV
I was concentrating on beam today and it felt great to be back training. It was nearing lunch time and we were about to stop when Mike decided to inform me of something.
"You have an admirer!" Huh, I looked up at the stands and saw Tony sitting there, he waved and I returned it with a smile.
"How long has he been there?" I whispered.
"All morning!" I smiled to myself.
"So we finished ?" He had a glint of something in his eye.
"No, why don't you do a run of the sequence we talked about." He said with a wink.
"You're evil, you know that." He smirked. He had only asked me to do the most difficult routine I know, just because he knew I was being watched and he thought I might fall on my ass, well he's not that evil, but I could fall on my ass! I started the routine and glided through it effortlessly with a perfect dismount. Now to pretend that was nothing.
"So can I go eat now?" He laughed and let me go. I retreated to the changing room and put some clothes out. When I came out Tony was waiting for me.
"Hey, you looked really good today." I smirked. "On the beam I mean. The sequence." He stumbled, I laughed.
"I know what you mean, thanks." His ears were pink again.
"Well you looked good too." I laughed.
"Thanks!"
"You want to go grab some lunch?"
"Ya I'd love to, I've really worked up a hunger!" We walked out of the building and towards a little nearby cafe.
"So you come here often?" He questioned. Tee hee, that sound like a cheesey chat up line, he seems nervous, better not make fun of him!
"Not usually, but I've been here for competitons and training before. I usually train in Ireland or school or last summer I was in Florida."
"Florida, wow, what's that like?"
"Hot! I missed home though, and my friends."
"Friends from your boarding school?"
"Ya. So what do you recommend I eat?" Had to change that subject!
"Try the cajun chicken roll, it's really good."
"Ok, sounds good." We got our lunch and sat at a table near the window. Tony started telling me about his friends and some really funny stories and jokes. He had my laughing till my sides hurt. Then he nodded towards an old lady sitting near us, giving us a filthy look. I giggled and decided to really give her something to be appauled at! I stopped laughing and gave Tony a wink. I slowly slipped my shoe off and started stroking his leg making sure the old lady could see it. Tony looked surprised but soon coped on and started gazing into my eyes and stroking my face. The woman now began tutting at us. I then felt Tony's hand rubbing my leg. I leaned in and gave him a kiss on the lips that was cut short when the woman stood up, making a fuss of picking her bags up, and stormed out of the cafe mumbling about teenagers. We both burst out laughing at the same time. When the laughter died down Tony reached for my hand.
"Cara, I really like you." Aw he's so sweet!
"I like you too." He grinned as he held my hand across the table. We got up and left the little corner cafe and walked back to the arena holding each others hands, it was loverly!
We soon arrived at the door. We stopped and looked at each other.
"So I might see you later?" He asked.
"Ya, here's my number, give me a ring." I entered my number in his phone, and stepped in for a kiss. His hands reached around my waist and mine went around his neck. He kissed me gently on the lips, I returned the kiss and slipped my tongue in his mouth. I could feel him smile as we continued kissing at the doorway. I soon pulled away slowly.
"Sorry, I gotta get back in there"
"Oh ya, forgot! I'll see you later then! Bye."
"Bye." I turned and went inside, leaving him standing at the door with a goofy smile on his face.
What a mad busy week, not only did I have extreme training, I also had a boyfriend! We had so much fun together, we went to the cinema, he showed me around, I met his friends and we used to sit in a nearby park and just snuggle and kiss.
"I'm going to miss you!" Tony and I were at the door to our apartment, my bags were packed and I was ready to go back to school.
"I'll miss you too, but we had fun while it lasted didn't we!"
"True, still I would rather you didn't have to go. But if your ever here again I want you to contact me."
"Of course I will." We kissed each other goodbye one more time and Tony headed off down the street. I returned to our living room.
"Now love, are you ready?" I nodded as my mother pulled me into a hug. I turned to my father and he engulfed me in a hug also. I then turned with my bags and stood in the fireplace.
"Gryffindor common room, Hogwarts!" I yelled and my body took off, flying past firelpaces making me close my eyes to stop the dizziness. Soon I began to slow down, slower and slower. I was grateful it slowed to such a pace as it allowed me to step out of the fireplace unharmed on two unsuspecting Weasley twins.
"FRED AND GEORGE WEASLEY!" I shouted in my best Mrs.Weasley impersonation. They jumped up off the couch looking guilty. I giggled.
"Cara, you scared the crap out of me!" Fred roared.
"And me!" I giggled again and soon they joined me.
"Hey what are you wearing?"
"Oh just a gym tracksuit. I just came from training."
"Oh you have a little suit thing on!"
"Ha, it's called a leothard, you asses!"
"Oh I'm sure Wood wouldn't mind what you call it! You should go show him!" I gave them a funny look, sometimes these twins are too weird!
"Whatever guys, I'm going for a shower."
"Ok well just send him up, when he comes down!" Strange. I headed up the stairs into my room where I found Jesse and Nicky sitting on their beds. They spotted me and ran towards me.
"Cara, your back, it's been so quiet here without you!" They both hugged me before we all sat down on the bed and I relived my week away as we all giggled together.
"So what did I miss here?" They both looked at each other and replied quickly."Nothing!"
"Ok guys, I'm heading for a shower!" I got up and walked into the bathroom for a long hot shower.
Narrators POV
As soon as Cara went into the bathroom, Nicky and Jesse began to whisper.
"Should we tell her?"
"I don't think so, you know Cara, if we told her she'd probably run in and smack him, or she just wouldn't believe us."
"Your right, she's just after Charlie and Tony, she wouldn't take it well, we'll tell her in a few weeks. Come on and tell the twins." They walked down to the common room where they found the twins sitting on the couch.
"Hello ladies!" Fred greeted.
"Hey guys, we were talking and we think it would be better if we didn't tell Cara about Woods feelings yet.".
"But they could get together then, we should tell her."
"Not now, it's not the right time, she had a boyfriend while she was away."
"Really, then I guess your right, we'll let nature work it's magic!"
