Chapter 8: If you pardon, we will mend.

Xoxox Tasha's POV xoxox

"I'm staying, forever."

I sat up straight and turned around to look at him. My mind was reeling. 'Does this mean…? Is he…?'

"Are you alright?" Charlie asked bringing his hand up to run through my hair.

"Just for clarification," I began, "what does that entail?" I asked him ignoring his question.

"He chuckled lightly. He sat up and leaned his back up against the headboard, pulling me to his chest. "I got transferred."

"That's it? I'm still confused."

"There is a massive dragon reserve in Northern Ireland. I got transferred there from Romania." He sounded very proud of himself. "The main office is off site. It is actually in the Ministry. So I will be living here, in London."

I shook my head, a huge smile on my face.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Charlie asked.

"You're wrong," I told him. A frown found it's way to his face. "You aren't going to be living here, in London, you are going to be living here, as in right here. I am not letting you go anywhere."

I threw my arms around his neck and molded my lips to his. We both could have continued celebrating, but as we all know life hates me and decided to shit on my fabulous morning.

With a massive slam my bedroom door burst open. "Neilson! The match starts in an hour, get your ass up now." Oliver's voice trailed off at the end as he recognized the red head next to me. "Charlie Weasley?" he half asked half exclaimed.

Charlie looked up at him and his eyes showed his shock. "Oliver Wood. I have to say I am not at all surprised," he said as he gestured to the Puddlemere robes Oliver was wearing. Taking one of the blankets to cover him self up, he got up and shared one of those strange man hugs then they began to chat.

I laid in shock. Charlie and I were just celebrating, were we not? How did it go from hot stream make out session to obnoxious man hugs and catching up with old buddies? It's not fair!

I threw my comforter over my head completely covering my self up. Under the blanket I made myself a makeshift toga. I threw the blanket to the side and huffed out of the room, stomping past Oliver and Charlie.

I made my way down the hall and banged my fist against Andi's door. "Andi, I need you to come and get your boyfriend off of mine and out of my room!" I yelled through the door.

"Okay," she replied from the other end of the hallway. "Nice toga."

I looked up towards the ceiling, calling to any god who chose to listen. "Why do you hate me? What did I do wrong? What don't I know?"

"What you don't know could fill several thick volumes, so why don't you stick to kicking ass and flying?" JJ commented, walking past with his cup of coffee on the way to the kitchen.

I stared at his back then dropped to the floor with an almighty groan and banged my forehead against the wall.

"That will do nothing for your balance, love." I looked up at Tony as he walked past me after JJ.

I flopped down on the floor and yelled, hoping to have all the frustration leave my body via loud noises. It didn't. Everyone poked his or her head into the hallway and look at me. I stomped my way back into my room and slammed the door after pushing Charlie and Oliver out. I crossed to the other side of the room and retrieved Charlie's cloths and threw them out the door for him.

I slammed the door again and ran over to my bed. I threw my body down in the middle of the bed and buried my face in one of my pillows and screamed.

"Welcome to the fifth game of the season here at McCauley Stadium, home of Puddlemere United. We are in for a great match today, the Montrose Magpies v. Puddlemere United.

"And here come the Magpies. With captain and seeker McGinnis in the lead, followed by his keeper Miller, the three Matts, Laschuk, Carlson and Victor. Bring up the beaters Bolt and Elliot. A great team they have, no new players this year either.

"And from the other side of the stadium come Puddlemere United, led by captain and keeper Wood followed by beaters Franco and Franco. Behind them come Webster, Stewart and Andrews. And finishing off the pack is seeker Nielson.

"They meet in the center to shake hands. Referee for today's match is Eugene Smith. Captains shake hands, and the balls are released. Smith blows the whistle and they are off.

"Webster with the quaffel heading towards Miller passes to Stewart, passes back to Webster and stolen by Laschuk. Laschuk with the quaffel dodges a bludger sent his way by Franco and is back up again. He drops the quaffel down to Carlson who passes to Victor. Victor shoots and is saved by Wood.

"Wood throws the quaffel to Stewart. Heading up the field and dodges a bludger, dodges Carlson, dodges the other, and passes to Webster and Webster shoots and no. Saved by Miller.

"Quaffel thrown to Victor who heads back down the field. He passes to Laschuk who dodges a bludger and oh… that must of hurt. Laschuk gets hit by the other bludger sent his way by Franco. Amazing bludger work.

"Andrews catches Laschuk's drop and flies back towards Miller. He shoots and it's good, 10-0 Puddlemere."

The crowd went wild.

"Magpies in possession, and its Carlson to Victor. Passes to Laschuk passes back to Victor and back to Laschuk. Laschuk shoots and Wood save… no Laschuk scores and Wood gets a bludger to the stomach. 10-10. And it looks like Neilson had spotted the snitch."

Xoxox Tasha's POV xoxox

I was sitting in the locker room right before the match. Oliver came over after his prep talk and sat down next to me.

"Neilson I need you to do great today."

"As opposed to every other match?" I replied, smiling.

"Its not just that, I also need you to not play like you are immortal today." I looked at him in confusion. He sighed. "As in I don't need you flying into the bludgers or other player, just because you know you can dodge them last second or scare the shit out of them. I need you to get the snitch but I also need you to be in one piece at the end of this."

"Wood, when have I ever gotten injured during a game?"

He looked at me with that look that said 'do you really want me to tell you the list?'

"Okay, when have I ever gotten injured due to my reckless flying?"

"Just be safe, no crazy moves, okay?"

"Alright, now lets do this shit." I jumped up and grabbed my broom.

I saw the snitch and Oliver's words ran through my mind. I almost laughed. It was nice of him to be concerned, but at the same time, I knew that if it came down to it I would do whatever it took for me to catch the snitch.

I chased after it and heard the commentator announce it. I have never understood that. What if I didn't want the opposing seeker to know that I was after the snitch, now he just ruined that for me?

I raced after it and saw McGinnis come up beside me. He grinned actually he smirked. It was not attractive at all. The snitch shot straight up. We followed. I was closer, higher. Then the snitch flew about 6 meters to the left and began to plummet. McGinnis was lower and closer, now ahead of me.

Shit.

Wood is going to be pissed.

The only way that I can get the snitch before McGinnis is if I do it. So I did.

I took my hands off of my broom and stood up on it. Then I bent my body in half and fell off.

"And it looks like Neilson had spotted the snitch.

"McGinnis and Neilson are chasing the snitch. And it looks like it is climbing; no it's falling. McGinnis is closer and… and… and ladies and gentlemen from the looks of it, yes, Neilson is going for it. McGinnis gets closer, but still not close enough. Neilson is up on her broom and there she goes.

"She is off in her signature move. This is how she got her nickname as 'The Red Baron' people. She is shooting straight for the snitch, and the ground, no broom; just her falling faster than any broom could take her. And she has it! Now here it comes people…

"And the landing is good. That is just amazing, let's see, did she get it?"

Xoxox Tasha's POV xoxox

The wind shot past me and I dove off of my broom for the snitch. I looked past the snitch momentarily at gauged my distance from the ground. 23 meters and dropping. I shot past McGinnis.

The snitch was coming, and then I caught it right as it slammed into my palm. Now the fun part. 17 meters left.

I shot my arms to my side and pulled the sides of my robes out to the side, using them as a makeshift glider suit. (Think Angelina Jolie in Laura Croft: Cradle of Life.)

I slowed down considerably. That was exactly what I needed. The ground was coming right for me now and I tucked.

I rolled onto the ground with only a slight thump. It hurt like hell but could tell that nothing was broken. Well at least Wood wont kill me a lot, just a little. I sprawled out on my back after coming out of my tuck.

The crowd went silent and I knew that they were waiting for me to move. I shot my hand up into the air and opened my fist.

Slowly the snitch began to beat its wings again. It fluttered out of my palm and hovered just above me. The responding noise was amazing.

My team flew down to the ground and was about to tackle me. I held out my other hand and yelled "UP!"

Luke and Nel pulled me up off the ground then enveloped me in a hug. The rest of the team joined. But Oliver pulled me out of our group hug.

Standing next to him were Tony and Charlie. Shit, he brought backup.

I giggled nervously and handed him the snitch that I had grabbed again. He looked down at my hand then back up at me. Clearly the shy angle wasn't going to work. He shook his head.

"Natasha I told you bef—"

"Ahhhhhhhh!" Came the voice of the body that had just jumped me and interrupted Oliver's scolding.

"Oh my god, Tash, that was so cool!" Andi squealed. "I got concerned for a second when the edge of the robe almost slipped but then you caught it again and I was so jealous the entire time. God the rush must have been orgasmic. Sigh." I laughed along with her.

Oliver cleared his throat. "Yeah it looked awesome, but Neilson I told you not to be an idiot and reckless this game and then you go and jump off of your broom. Again. What am I going to do with you?" He huffed. Andi threw her arms around his neck and cut off any further argument that he might have had.

"I think this is yours."

I turned towards the voice. Standing behind me as McGinnis with my broom in one hand, held out to me. I took it from him. "Good game."

"What do you mean? You caught the snitch." He laughed.

"Well yeah, but if I wasn't insane you so would have caught it. There was no other way I would have caught up to you. So good game."

"You too." He said then turned and walked to his locker rooms.

"So, how do you want to celebrate?" Charlie asked as he threw his arm over my shoulder.

"Oh, I think you know."

AN: Thanks for reading. I know that most of the stuff in this chapter is farfetched, but it is my story so I decided that a fall like that wouldn't kill her since she is amazing. Thanks again and please review.
