"Hello,
earth to Ally!" I snapped out of it and turned to look at Stacie
who was waving her hand right in front of my face. I hadn't even
touched my food.
"What?" I said and turned from
Oliver's powerful gaze.
"You're practically drooling" I
shook my head.
"No, Im not I was just getting a good look at
him. Anyway Im going to sleep the train ride really made me sleepy"
I covered my mouth and got up, leaving the food untouched.
"It's
so early and we didn't even get to see and compare our schedules"
"I know well do tomorrow, Stacie, I promis"
Oh, ok
so I wasn't sleepy. Not even close but I wanted to take a walk alone.
I've always been that kind of person. Being alone with my thoughts
has always helped me make the right decisions. I walked into the cold
foggy night and stood there with my hands in my jean pockets. After a
few minutes I headed inside. It was so cold I couldnt even think but
I was able to crawl into my bed and sleep like a baby.
I
got up before anyone else did and took a shower. I had to admit I
hated the uniforms. They didnt make me look bad they just made me
look like I was going to a church where I would probably fit in just
fine.
"You realize that it's really early, right?" I
nodded and brushed my hair.
"How do you manage to look so
good even in the morning. I usually look like I just woke up even
after taking a shower"
"Oh, Shut up and hurry up, Im
going down to breakfast and by the way, your hairdo is awesome"I
laughed she looked like she had one of those 60s hairdos sort of
thing.
"Very funny, miss perfect"
I waved my hand
dismissively and left.
By the time I made it to the Great Hall
for Breakfast there were a few people there, including Oliver, I
mean, Professor Oliver. Wow, youre up early I turned to look at Ron
and Harry.
"Hey guys, what are you up to?"
Ron sat
down next to me and smiled..
I was hungry I wondered where it was
he had put all the food that he had eaten last night. If I ever ate
that much I would probably never eat again.
"So what's your
schedule look like?" Harry asked and took a bite out his muffin.
"Uh...looks like I have-" I handed him my schedule.
Potions
Defense against the Dark Arts
Arithmacy
Divination
Care
of Magical Creatures
Flying Practice
"We
have Flying, Divination and, Potions at the same time" Harry
pointed out. Ron nodded because his mouth was so full he couldnt
talk.
"Thats good" I said and drank some milk.
Suddenly a group of 3 guys rushed in, one behind the other.
"Oh
great"Ron murmured.
"What?" I asked, but somehow I
knew it had to do with how hot they were.
"The three hotties
from the three other houses Thats Draco Malfoy, hes from Slytherin"
I looked at the guy with the blonde hair, he was hot but not that
hot!
"and thats Paul Martin from Hufflepuff"
He was
hot but too confident, almost like he knew every girl wanted him. And
he was wrong because I didnt.
" and Jason Bayon, from
Ravenclaw"
That guy struck me as handsome and he had this
mysterious look to him. You know the kind of look where its like
theyre hiding something and you really want to know what that is?
Yeah that kind of look.
Paul
turned and smiled at me. I smiled back a bit unsure I didnt even know
him but who cared.
"Thats it. I dont even know what girls
see in them"Ron said.
"Well, at least they're not
stuffing their faces like you are, Ronald" Hermione appeared
next to me and sat down, she had three humoungous books in
hand.
"Where's Stacie?" "She's sleeping"
I
sighed, when was the girl going to get up? There were only a few
minutes before class started.
"Why didnt you wake her up?"
"I tried but she's like a rock" Hermione pointed out.
I
sighed. She had a point. It was so hard to wake up Stacie, trust me I
know, I lived with her for years.
"Im gonna got get her"
I said and stood.
On my way out a ton of boys turned their heads.
God, thats so stupid!.
"GET UP! Im going to be late
because of you" I said and pushed Stacie back and forth.
"God,
but Im so tired" She groaned.
"Not my problem "I
said and pulled her covers out of her grasp.
"Fine Im coming"
I walked back and forth waiting for her to get out of the
bathroom. She didnt even have time for a shower.
"Great, lets
go" Stacie looked at her self in the mirror and shook her head.
"See I told you I look like shit in the morning"
"Thats because you get up late" I said and grabbed my
book bag from the floor.
We hurried down the stairs. Well, I
did because Stacie was walking slow behind me.
"Hurry up!"
I exclaimed and pushed my hair back. I got the last step and tripped.
It hurt so bad I ended up on the ground.
"Ha..Ha Stacie"
said as she made her way down.
I glared at her and turned to get
up. A strong hand appeared right in front of me.
"Miss
Alexia, need a hand?" I felt my whole face going warm. Here I
was on the ground with Professor Hottie, I mean, Oliver smiling at
me. How imberresing can this be!. wait. How did he know my name?
I
nodded and took his warm hand.
"Thank you" I said shily
as he picked up my book bag and handed it to me.
"Not a
problem, Miss-" "Ally" I said correcting him. Not many
people called me Alexia.
"Miss Ally" He smiled, his
brown eyes looked so brown I could almost loose myself in them. I
wasn't even aware that we had been standing there staring at each
other until Stacie coughed and gave me a-I-knew-it-look. I blushed
and took my book bag from Oliver.
"Good Morning, Professor"
Stacie said as she approached me. She was practically digging her
elbow on my back.
"I'll see you later, Ladies" He said
and smiled one last time before leaving.
"What was that?"
Stacie asked as we walked to class. I decided there was no use in
running since we were, really, late.
"What was what?"
"That whole staring into each others eyes thing?"
"I
dont know what you're talking about" "Sure, you do, I saw
you. It was so obvious"
"He's a teacher, Stacie"
Although I wished he wasnt.
"So?" "So, I
feel...amused by his teaching skills"
"What skills, you
haven't even seen him teach"
"Shut up" I said
trying hard not to start blushing.
"Did you see the way he
was looking at you?" I shook my head.
"He's a teacher,
Stacie" I reminded her for the second time.
"No, hes a
guy, a really hot guy, but thats not my point. You could get any guy
you want and I think that Oliver, I mean, professor Oliver, wait, let
me remind you hes only here for a year, so hes not really a teacher,
anyway, he might just have a crush on you" I laughed.
I mean
really laughed because behind my laugh I was wishing that she was
right...but of course she had to be wrong. Oliver was way too hot to
notice me. I mean, Im 17, he's 20. There is no way he could like me.
But I can still day dream, right?
