---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Giselle and Hermione arrived at their room at the Leaky Cauldron after the party. Hermione couldn't help but notice that Giselle was in a somewhat cheerful mood.
"Giselle, you must have had a great time at the party, Hermione said.
"Yeah I did," Giselle said as she took off her bunny ears, "I met a really hot guy."
"You…..met a hot guy! And I didn't see him before you! Something must be wrong with me." Hermione said
"Thank you Captain Obvious," said Giselle laughing.
Hermione glared at her, "Well go ahead then."
Giselle finished changing out of her costume and into a red wife beater and red pj shorts. Then she picked up Oliver's book, sat down on her bed and began to look through it.
"Giselle!"
"What is it, Hermione?"
"Go ahead with it."
Giselle looked at Hermione, "Go ahead with what?"
Hermione finished changing and sat down on Giselle's bed, "Go ahead and tell me about him. I want to know everything."
"Well he's tall, probably about six foot two. He has the cutest smile I've ever seen and his body," Giselle stopped and fanned her face, "His body was very well built. He's also a keeper for the Puddlemere United Quidditch team and he has the most gorgeous hazel eyes I've ever seen. He asked me out and tomorrow night's our date."
"You have a date with him, all ready? After only meeting him once?" Hermione asked frantically.
Giselle was a little hesitant before she answered, "Well I've actually met before. I sort of bumped into him at the bookshop when we went shopping the other day," Giselle handed Oliver's book to Hermione, "That's how I ended up with this book."
"Do you even know the guy's name?"
"Yes mother," Giselle said sarcastically, "His name is Oliver Wood."
"Oliver Wood? As in former keeper for the Gryffindor Quidditch team? Oh I hate you!"
"Is he a good guy?" Giselle asked
"Are you kidding? He is like the hottest keeper I have ever seen! He is very sweet. He always made everyone at the Gryffindor table laugh when Fred or George weren't around. Oliver and Viktor are the only reasons I ever enjoyed Quidditch." Hermione said dreamily
Giselle smiled wickedly, "What about the Malfoy boy? From what I understood in your letters he is pretty hot." Giselle asked.
"Draco? Oh, well he's ok I guess," Hermione said, blushing, "What time is he going to pick you up?"
"He said he would pick me up at seven p.m. So that means that we get to go shopping in the morning. But I want to sleep so no more questions," Giselle said as climbed under the covers.
"Yes but…," Hermione stopped when Giselle glanced at her sharply, her eyes blood red. Hermione got off of Giselle's bed and climbed into her own.
"Good night!" Giselle said then went to sleep.
"Giselle….Giselle wake up," Hermione said.
She turned in her bed slowly, "Just give me five more minutes."
Hermione started to shake Giselle, "Gis, I have some bad news….Ville Valo died."
Giselle shot straight up, "WHAT MY SWEET VILLE DIED?"
"Well no, but I had to wake you…," Hermione suddenly found herself pinned to the floor by Giselle. Her eyes were blood red, once again, and her fangs were longer then usual.
"If you ever play a trick like that on me again I will make sure that you have a slow and extremely painful death," she said as she got off of Hermione. Her eyes changed back to their blue/gray color and her fangs shrank down to normal size. Giselle began to laugh as she offered a hand to help Hermione up.
Giselle quickly changed into a pair of jeans and a sexy wide v-neck tee. "All right lets go but nothing too girly. You know how I hate girly." Giselle said
The girls made their way to muggle London. Hermione quickly found a Victoria's Secret, which Giselle begged not to go in but she dragged her in. Hermione pulled Giselle over to the dresses and started to look through them.
"Oh Giselle this one is pretty." Hermione said holding up a pink ruched mesh dress.
"Hermione, no that is too pink and too girly! And besides I would totally look like a slut in that," Giselle said looking through the dresses, "Now this is prefect." Giselle held up a black off-the-shoulder dress. She quickly went into the dressing rooms and changed. "So what do you think?"
"I think Oliver is going to die when he sees you in that." Hermione said
Giselle went back into the dressing room and changed back into her normal clothes. The girls paid for the clothes then headed back to their room to get Giselle ready for the date.
Around 6:45pm Oliver came to Giselle's room wearing the leather pants he wore at the party, a white dress shirt, and a black sports jacket. He knocked on her door to be greeted by Giselle who was wearing the dress, and black platform Mary Jane's. She was wearing very little make-up just enough to make it look like her body sparkled. Her hair was down but it was curly. "You look gorgeous!" Oliver said checking her out.
"You don't look to bad yourself Oliver." Giselle said smiling devilishly.
"I hope you don't mind apperating to the restaurant. We are going to Signore Romano's for dinner. So just hold on to me tightly." Oliver said offering his hand.
Giselle took his hand then wrapped her arms tightly around Oliver's waist. Oliver wrapped his arm around her waist then apperated to Signore Romano's where the hostess was waiting for them. "Mr. Wood we have been waiting for you. Your table is ready; William will take you to your table. William, please take Mr. Wood and his beautiful date to their table," he said.
William took Oliver and Giselle to their seats. "What would you like to drink with your meal?" William asked
"Your finest white wine." Oliver said. William nodded then went to get their drinks. "I hope you don't mind but I already preordered our dinner."
"I don't mind at all. I have your book that you dropped in the alley that day." Giselle said taking the book out of her purse and handing it to Oliver.
"I also have yours." Oliver said pulling hers out of his inner pocket and handing it to her. "Would you like to know what I ordered for us?"
"Yes, please." Giselle said
"For the appetizer I ordered roasted tomato salad with goat cheese crumbles, then for the main course we will have risotto with caramelized onions and roasted chicken, and for desert we will have Tuscan meringue with mixed berries. I have had it before and it is very good. So how do you know Hermione Granger? We were in the same house at Hogwarts but I was in my fifth year when she started school there." Oliver said just as William came with the wine and poured them each a glass.
"Hermione and I grew up together until my father and I moved to America. I come and visit her every summer and during my breaks. I hope that next year I can become Prof. Snape's apprentice when I start my seventh year. I want to become a potions mistress." Giselle said sipping her wine.
They continued to make small talk until dinner arrived. "How long are you going to be staying here in London?" Oliver asked
"I go back right when Hermione goes back to school so in about three weeks." Giselle said.
"I have to go back to training in two weeks. I never get time off. But the traveling is great. I am going to America in November should I look you up?" Oliver asked.
"Sure I would love that." Giselle replied
After they were done eating dinner and desert Oliver and Giselle walked around Wizardry London. Then the two of them ended up walking through a near by park. All of was quiet in the park, no other people around, and it was a very cloudy night.
"I wish we could see the stars like last night," said Giselle.
"Yes, they were quite beautiful...just like you," said Oliver.
Giselle blushed slightly at this remark. Oliver put his arm around her waist, bringing her closer to him. The edge of his fingertips grazed her cheek, touched her curly hair. Giselle had her hands on his chest; she could feel his heart beat. She looked up into Oliver's hazel eyes and became entranced instantly. Oliver was about to lean in and kiss her, when suddenly the two heard a crack of thunder.
Sheets of rain began to pour down upon them. The two of them just stood there, almost baffled by the rain. Giselle's hair was no longer curly, but straight and plaster to her face and neck.
Oliver looked at her, 'God she even looks beautiful in the rain.'
Giselle let go of Oliver and began to dance in the rain, swaying her body, mostly her hips, back and forth to some unheard melody. Oliver noticed how her dress clung to her even more then it had previously that night. He quickly took off his jacket and placed it around her shoulders.
Giselle turned around to look at Oliver, "Thanks."
"Well I don't want you getting sick because of me," said Oliver
"Oh that won't be a problem."
Oliver placed his arm around her waist and the two of them left the park. The two of them walked through Wizardry London until they got back to the Leaky Cauldron. Oliver led her back to her room.
"I had a really good time Oliver. Thank you," she said smiling.
Oliver leaned in and kissed her softly on the lips. Giselle kissed him back passionately and pulled him closer to her. Oliver slid his hands up to her hair and started to run his fingers through her hair. Giselle slid her hands up his chest and wrapped one of her legs around his waist.
Oliver pulled away from the kiss panting. "Giselle, I want to take my time. Do you want to go out next weekend?" Oliver asked
Giselle could only nod. She kissed him on the cheek then went into her room. Giselle walked over to her bed ignoring Hermione's questions and quickly changed into pjs then went to sleep her dreams filled with Oliver.
When Oliver arrived at his flat he couldn't stop thinking about Giselle. He changed into some red silk boxers then climbed into bed and went fast asleep his dreams filled with Giselle.
