-Theodore pov-

Potter. My Rori was talking to our sworn enemy, and she seemed to be enjoying it. Did she really want to go to the dance with him? I was hoping she wanted to go with me. She looked happy sitting next to Potter.

I noticed I had been staring and then slid into a spot in the back. The entire period I was distracted by my nagging thoughts about Rori and Potter. She sat in her chair as her silky hair flowed out of her ponytail. Then I saw Potter lean over and whisper something in her ear. I could see her chuckle and then whispered something back to him. For the rest of the class I watched Rori and Potter whisper to each other.

I watched in jealousy as I wished I was Potter right now. Hearing her soft, delicate words whisper to me. Just to have her presence next to me. To smell the roses and vanilla. To see her blonde hair, silky blonde hair catches the sunlight and glisten. To hear her small giggles and feel her soft presence that made my body be consumed by joy, happiness, and peace.

Once the period was over I quickly grabbed my bag not even thinking about waiting up for my friends. Since I was the closest to the door it was easy for me to make a quick exit and walked to my next class.

"Theo? Theo?" I could hear her calling my name in the crowd of people.

I decided against turning around and seeing her face. Seeing her magnificent eyes stare at me. Divulge myself in the clear blue that clashed with my green.

She was quick and caught up with me. "Theodore Nott, are we running away from me now?" She asked me sarcastically. "Don't be mad that I was sitting with Potter, he just had nowhere else to sit and I felt bad so I let him sit with me." She paused before continuing "Of course I told him next time he couldn't sit with me because you are going to be sitting with me."

I looked over at her and couldn't help but smile. I replied back "How did he not know that the seat next to Rori had a sign up sheet. And you see I have it reserved for, let me check, a million years in advance."

She started to laugh at what I said. I couldn't help but laugh with her. She was so beautiful when she was happy.

Annie's pov:

He always seemed to make me laugh. I really like seeing him happy, I thought. Sitting with Potter was fine, but I enjoyed sitting next to Theo better. He looked so intent while he was learning, and when I wasn't sure or was confused on anything I could always count on him to help me. He walked me to my next class (Herbology) and dropped me off there. Before leaving he leaned down and kissed me on my forehead. This made me blush hoping that he wouldn't notice.

I walked into Herbology, which is one of my favorite classes. Nature seemed to have an unnatural affect on me. I noticed that whenever I would walk through a grassy field little wildflowers would spring up after walking past that patch of grass. My favorite times were when my sisters and I would sneak away from our house and have picnics in the valley near our manor. We would read and discuss French literature.

I found Neville and sat down next to him. He looked at me and smiled. I returned the smile and we started to talk about the latest plant we had been working on. Then Professor Sprout started the class. Today's class was enjoyable and our only homework was to read about our next plant for the next class.

When class ended Neville and I walked out of class finishing our conversation we were having before class had started. When we exited I saw Theo waiting for me. I said my goodbyes to Neville and walked to Theo.

"Hey Nott"

"Whats up Rori?" Why did he always call me that?

"Herbology was good, how was Astronomy?"

"The usual. Anyways I didn't know you were friends with Neville."

"There are a lot of things that you are yet to know about me Nott." and then nudging his side.

"You know what happened last time, right?"

"Theo no, please don't" but it was too late. I was once again a potato sack over his shoulder. "Theo! put me down" I said while trying to squirm out of his arms. But he just ended up tightening his arm around me. Wow he had really strong arms.

"You know you are really cute when you get mad"

Did he just say that?! He thinks I'm cute. A smile spread across my face. I always seem to be smiling around him. I hope he asks me to the dance. I really don't want to say yes to Potters invite. He's nice and kind of cute, but Theo is different. He's funny and always seems to make me smile and laugh. He's really handsome and he's one of my best friends. But I don't fancy him or anything. I don't think I do.
