I was on my way to the quidditch pitch when Jazlyn came running up to me.
"Sophie, Sophie, Sophie"
"Jazlyn, Jazlyn, Jazlyn"
"You should here what I heard about one of the English exchange students" Jazlyn said excitedly.
"Yeah?" I said.
Jazlyn loved to gossip she lived for gossip.
"He's been with so many girls like wow, I think he has been with the entire girl population of this school in one week!"
"What's his name?" I asked as we started walking again.
"No idea but, Lachie said someone made a really dirty joke about his last name, anyway I will see you later" Jazlyn said running off.
I shook my head at my best friends running figure before walking onto the quidditch pitch.
There was a figure flying on the pitch already so I climbed onto my broom and flew up towards them.
"Mind if I fly on the other end of the pitch" I said squinting in the sunlight.
"No that's fine as long as you go out with me afterwards" he said with an unfamiliar Scottish accent.
"In your dreams, looks like I will postpone my flying" I said raising my eyebrows.
"No it's ok, I'm sorry I will leave you be" he said looking sincere.
"Thanks. Just curious but what's your last name?" I asked.
"Wood. Why?"
"So you're the English student who is hooking up with half the school" I said starting to turn on my broom.
"Who me?" He said faking innocence.
I giggled before flying away.
"What's your name?" He yelled.
"See ya later wood"
"Sophie?"
"Oh you remember me from all of the countless girls you were with in Australia" I said raising my eyebrows.
"Please tell me you weren't one of them" Oliver said putting his head in his hands.
"What's that supposed to mean?" I said coldly.
"I thought that I would never see those girls again" Oliver said.
"Well I can tell you that you weren't, but I do remember you, do you remember a certain meeting on a certain quidditch pitch?" I said raising my eyebrows.
Woods mouth sprung open like he had the most shocking news.
"That was you?" Oliver said shuffling forward to look closer at me.
"Umm...yes?" I said cautiously.
"Prove it" he said looking at me suspiciously.
"You can fly on the other end of the pitch if you date me afterwards" I said standing up to stand on the bed.
"Umm...ok I'm going to bed" Oliver said standing up with a frown on his face.
"What was that about?" I asked Chris.
"I have no idea" Chris said standing up and giving me a quick hug before rushing out of the room. Percy and Taylor followed quickly after.
"He is so perfect" Marietta sighed.
I rolled my eyes before changing into my PJs and climbing into bed. I was just in bed when there was a knocking on the window next to my bed.
I climbed out of bed and opened the Window for the owl. I took the letter of the Owls leg before giving it a quick treat and opening the letter.
Goodnight.
Wood. xx
I felt my heart race then cursed myself for doing so. I shoudn't feel this way for someone like Oliver. But he looks so perfect and the way he acted tonight was too strange for me to just be one of his girls. Maybe he can just be a bit of fun for this year. Maybe I can control my feelings.
We need to talk.
Sophie. xx
The next morning I walked down to breakfast, complaining about the early morning (i am not a morning person) with Abigail to find Taylor and Chris waiting for us. We all took a seat in the great hall and started eating.
"I know something about you" Chris sang under his breath looking at me.
"What?" I snapped knowing that he would keep this up for days.
"Someone in England likes you" he said wiggling his eyebrows at me.
"Cause that would work out, I don't really care" I said feeling my heart race. Could it be Oliver?
Before I could ask anymore questions a body landed on the table next to me with their head on my shoulder.
"Why can't school start later?" Oliver groaned.
"Not a morning person either I see" I said praying to merlin that I wasn't blushing.
"I once slept in till 10...at night" he said finally sitting up to eat.
"Bullshit" Chris said. "No one can beat Sophie at sleeping in"
"Looks like you guys would make the perfect couple" Jazlyn said winking at me. (I had shown her the note from the night before)
"Looks like we would" Oliver said grinning at me.
And cue my embarrassing blush.
Chris nudged me before throwing me a quick wink. I shook my head at him before elbowing him in the ribs.
"What lesson do you have first?" Oliver said turning his head for a second to look at me.
"Umm...History of Magic" I said looking at my timetable.
"I do to, does anyone else have History of Magic" Oliver said.
"Jazlyn and Angelina" I said looking at Jazlyn for confirmation.
"Why aren't you going with Marietta to her class?" Oliver said standing and offering me his hand.
I just raised my eyebrows before taking his hand.
