Selfish Bloke (An Oliver Wood Love Story)

Gala

"Maggie, wake up! Today's the day!" Katie screeched, climbing up to my bed and jumping on it. I normally would've groaned and rolled back over, but today was the day. The day of the Achiever's Gala to be exact, and I was overjoyed, no, ecstatic, to get ready and go to the Gala, I could just tell that it was going to be an amazing night that I'd be blessed to spend with an amazing guy. I still couldn't believe that I was lucky enough to have him be my boyfriend, he was so, so wonderful, caring, sweet, unbelievably attractive, I couldn't even but it into words how wonderful he was and I couldn't imagine myself with anyone else. "Hey, snap out of it and get in the shower. Hermione's getting us some breakfast and Angelina'll be here any second."

I jumped out of bed and grabbed the strapless bra that I'd be wearing tonight, my wand, a pair of knickers, my robe, and some lavender scented bubble bath. 

"Hey, I'm heading up to the prefect's bathroom, I'll be back in a half hour, tops," I yelled over to Katie as I walked out of the dorm and down to the common room, which was completely empty. I walked out of the common room and down the hall, and since the prefect's bathroom was only a few doors down the hall, it only took me about three minutes to get there. I walked into the bathroom, which was empty, and started drawing myself a bath, throwing in some of the lavender scented bubble bath as well. I took off my pajamas and slipped into the large bath, taking in a deep breath of the sweet lavender smell as I sunk into the bubbles. I grabbed the shampoo that was next to me and massaged it into my scalp, leaving it in for a few minutes before rinsing it out with warm water. I put a small bit of conditioner in my hair as well, letting it sit as I sunk down to right under my nose in the warm water. I rinsed out the conditioner and shaved my legs as well before I sat in the water, resting my arms on the side of the gigantic tub and laid back, closing my eyes and taking in a few deep breaths. I was still deciding on what kind of look I wanted for my hair and makeup tonight, I wanted to curl my hair in curls that were loose, yet tight at the same time, and I wasn't sure about the makeup. I was debating wearing either some light browns or some subtle pinks for my eye shadow, I knew that I was going to wear some brown eyeliner and a subtle pink lipstick, so either look would match. I eventually decided on wearing some of the lighter browns and some pinks, they both went together nicely anyways. I sighed as I got out of the bath, sliding on both my knickers and bra and throwing my robe on over them. I tied my still wet, but not soaking wet, hair into a ponytail before picking up my pajamas, slid on my chacos, and walked out of the bathroom, running straight into someone's chest as I did so. 

"Oh, I'm so sorry, are you alright?" Oliver asked, grabbing my shoulders and pushing me back so that he could look into my eyes.

"Yeah, I'm fine," I answered, smiling a bit as his grip on my shoulders loosed a bit and his hands moved from my shoulders to my waist. 

"Good," he said, leaning down and pressing his lips to mine, deepening it within a few seconds. Our tongues moved together in perfect harmony, my hands flying up to his hair. He broke the kiss, still holding me tightly to him, and resting his forehead on mine. 

"I love you, and I would love even more to keep snogging you, but I have to get going, I have to look nice tonight, yeah?," I whispered, pressing a kiss to his cheek before I walked towards the bathroom door, his hand catching my waist and pulling me back before I could reach the handle of the door. 

"You always look nice, gorgeous even. Now, give me on more kiss," he said, our noses resting against each other. I pressed my lips onto his once more, only giving him a quick kiss before I turned to walk out of the door, walking back to the common room quickly. I ran up the stairs to the dorm and walked in quickly, shutting the door behind me and walking to the bathroom, where everyone was gathered. Amelia and Hermione were busy painting Angelina and Katie's fingernails and toenails.
