This chapter is one of my favorites! Yeah pretty short but I love it!

Courtney's POV

Four days later, Madam Pomfrey finally allowed me to visit Noah. When I saw him, he seemed asleep. He didn't have a bandage any more, but seemed really tired. I silently grabbed a chair and sat by him, staring at his face.

"Hi," he whispered.

I almost cried. He'd scared me!

He opened his eyes, and smiled.

"I knew it was you," he said.

"Why should it be me?" I asked, blushing.

"Because I heard you talking to Madam Pomfrey," Noah laughed.

"Oh...right. Hey, Gwen and Cody say they hope you get better."

"I'm feeling quite better. Madam Pomfrey told me I should be out tomorrow."

"Good. Do you think you'll be okay for the final?" I asked.

"Sure," he said "It's in two weeks, right?"

"Nope, it's in five days," I laughed.

"Being here I loose the sense of time," he laughed.

I giggled, but then we stood in a silence.

"Um...I wanted to thank you for everything you did," I muttered "You could've died, and decided to protect me."

Instead of hearing a plain old: It's okay or a It's what anyone would've done, Noah started sitting up until his whole trunk rose.

"I've got something I need to tell you," he said with a serious expression, "and I've been thinking about this for a year, but I can't stand it any more. I'm going to tell you."

I listened to Noah. I had no idea of what he wanted to talk about.

"Yeah?"

"Courtney...I- I love you," he stammered.

Those three words struck me. But not as a smack in my face, but as a nice, spring breeze. I grinned.

"You...you do?" I asked. I couldn't believe my ears.

"Of course I do!" he cried, kind of offended.

"Sorry," I said.

Without thinking it twice, I placed a kiss in his lips. After a few seconds, I pulled away slowly.

"Wow," Noah mused "That felt good."

"Same here," I giggled.

I knew I'd just made Noah's day.

We were there for a good hour, talking about different things, in those included the fact we could win both the Quidditch tournament and the House cup. There wasn't any awkwardness between us now. It felt so great to talk again like we used to.

Everything was the same, yet completely different.

Aww I loved writing that =3

I hope you guys liked that too!
