Chapter 5: The plan

Cynthia and Oliver hadn't spoken much since their kiss in the common room. Erica and Brittany were really surprised that Oliver took their advice and stayed away from Cynthia. It must have been really hard for him since he shared all of his classes with her. Erica and Brittany didn't know since they were sixth years.

In Quidditch practice they barely said two words to each other. The team became very worried for the two of them. It was basically unnatural for them not to talk to each other. Cynthia sat silently in the locker room when Oliver was giving his speech about practice, and Oliver never sneak a glance at Cynthia during practice like he used to.

This fight continues for two weeks. Two long weeks of silence until Brittany, Erica, George and Fred decided it was enough. They need to make the two of them talk again or to fall in love. Something needs to be done.

"So does anyone have any ideas?" George asks.

"Well no. That is why we are here. Something needs to be done. Cynthia just comes back to the room like zombie most of the time. She has fallen asleep crying for the past couple of nights," Erica said.

"Yeah…when we told Oliver he needs to make up his mind, I didn't think it was going to take this long. Why do boys have to be so difficult?" Brittany whined.

"We aren't difficult. We have told you plenty of times how much we care for you two" Fred said.

"Well you guys aren't. But Oliver is definitely being difficult. I mean tell her already that you are in love with her," Erica said.

"Maybe we have to show it to him that he loves her" George said.

Everyone look at George and they saw his smile grow across his face. They couldn't understand what he meant. Then he motion for everyone to crowd in and he told them his plan.

Cynthia was sitting on the couch doing some Potions work. Potions were not as much fun without Oliver sitting there next to her. Since he moved his seat and she got stuck sitting next to Flint. It was miserable, how could Oliver do that to her. For the past two weeks Flint had been making Cynthia miserable. Cynthia had to keep her mouth shut because she didn't want to lose points for the Gryffindor's.

-Flash-

Cynthia was sitting in double Potions, and she tried not to look at Oliver. It meant she would have to look in the same direction as Flint, and she was doing everything in her power to keep quiet. Flint this time kept making kissing sounds at Cynthia, and she couldn't and wouldn't look at him. As she was trying to do her potion in her cauldron and Flint knocked into her cauldron. Her potion spilt onto the floor, she couldn't believe it.

"Try it again" Flint smiled.

"Miss Annabel! Gryffindor will lose 35 points, clean up your mess," Professor Snape told her.

"Yes Professor Snape. I am sorry," Cynthia sighed; she didn't make any eye contact with Snape.

-End-

Cynthia stops remembering that horrible memory. She decided she wanted to talk to Oliver again; she couldn't stand another Potions class with Flint. When she heard the portrait open she stops what she was doing and looks in that direction. It turned out to be George and Erica walking through the portrait.

"Hey guys!" Cynthia waved at them.

"Hey Cyn" both of them said walking over to her. "So we heard something interesting" Erica smiled.

"What did you hear?" Cynthia asks.

"Well we heard that Roger Davies wants to ask you to the ball after Christmas break," George smiled at him.

"Really?" Cynthia asked.

"Yeah, I heard it from Roger's mouth earlier," Erica explained.

"Me and Roger?" Cynthia questions them.

"Yeah, they heard that Oliver won't ask you so they are looking for you to ask you" George said.

"Should I go with him?" Cynthia asks them.

"I think you should go with Roger," George said again. Erica nodded her head in agreement.

"Alright then, I'll see Roger tonight in Astronomy. I will talk to him there," Cynthia smiled.

Both Erica and George smiled at each other. Cynthia grabbed her potions books and headed for the stairs to get her Astronomy books. Erica smiled more at George and when Cynthia was up the stairs they gave each other a high five.

Oliver was sitting in the library knowing Cynthia would be studying in the common room for Potions. But she would be leaving soon for Astronomy. Oliver then saw Brittany and Fred walk up to him.

"Hey Oliver did you hear the news?" Fred asks.

"No I haven't. What news? Did Harry get hurt again?" Oliver just kept asking questions to Fred.

"No, it doesn't have to do with Harry. It has to deal with Cynthia. She got a date to the ball. She is going with Roger Davies," Brittany said carefully.

Oliver dropped his quill, and look at the two of them. "Roger Davies?"

"Yeah…why are you looking at us like that?" Brittany asks.

"Cynthia Annabel, my chaser is going with Roger Davies to the dance?" Oliver asks.

Brittany looks at Fred, who was staring at Brittany. Why was it so hard for him to understand? Brittany and Fred both turn their attention to Oliver.

"Yes Ollie. Cynthia said yes to Roger," Fred said.

"But why?" Oliver asks.

"Because you are avoiding her like the plague. So Roger found an opportunity to ask Cynthia" Brittany explained.

Oliver rose out of his seat and tried to find his stuff. He was going to look for Cynthia and ask her personally.

"Where are you going Ollie?" Fred asks.

"To find Cynthia," Oliver said.

"Too late. She is at Astronomy right now. We saw her walking with Davies. It ends up they have the same class together," Brittany said.

Oliver fell back in his seat defeated. He didn't know what to say or do. He couldn't believe it had only been two weeks since he found out that Cynthia was in love with him and she was with Davies.

Cynthia was looking through her telescope at the stars to make charts. She felt a light tap on her shoulder and she turn to the person. It happens to be Roger Davies. She couldn't help but smile at him, he had messy brown hair. It so happen to because he just had Quidditch practice.

"Yes Roger?" Cynthia asks him.

"Well seeing and hearing that Oliver hasn't asked to the dance. I was wondering if we could go to the dance together. And be your boyfriend," Roger said.

"Wow, risky move," she smiled. Roger looks down at the ground. "Yes to both questions."

Roger look back Cynthia and had a huge grin on his face. "Alright! This is exciting. Forever I thought you and Wood would end up together."

"Yeah you and everyone else" Cynthia said back to him.
