Harry Potter Oneshots

Request: Stubborn Love

A request for @AwesomeDashRockz124 I hope you like it!

You look at the dark haired boy across the Quidditch pitch. He catches your eye and you smile at each other. At the end of training you both land next to each other.
"Hi I'm Blaise. Blaise Zabini." He says, sticking out his hand for you to shake.
"Lyra." You say, accepting his offered hand.

"Lyra!"
You look over at Blaise. "What?" You say, "what did I do now huh Mr Smart Alec?"

He sighs. "You can't put the crushed beetles in before the murtlap juice, they have to go after, can you read?"

You roll your eyes. "Alright then, you help me!"

Finally you get the Amortentia finished, without incurring too much wrath from Professor Snape, or your friends, Daphne and Cedric, seated beside you, who are both most definitely in the splash zone for exploding potions.

The classroom is filled with the fine, wispy smoke coming out of the cauldrons. As part of the excercise, everybody takes a mental note on what they can smell.

Blaise smells chocolate, vanilla and cherry blossom. A smell he knows very well, but doesn't want to admit to himself that it smells like Lyra.

You smell shoe polish, cologne and apples. You know where you've smelled it before, but it must be a coincidence. It can't be him, you argue all the time! How can it be him? You decide to keep quiet about it, he doesn't feel the same, and you don't want to make anything awkward since you're partners in every subject.

You both start cleaning up, until he accidentally pushed over the armadillo bile and the glass smashes on the floor. You're both so high strung with the information you've both just found out that you instantly explode. Both of you yell at each other while the rest of the classroom stops and stares.

"Enough!" You're silenced by a shout from Professor Snape. "Detention both of you tonight with me until you can stoo behaving like five year olds!"

You glare at each other, but finish packing up your items in silence, while he grabs a rag to clean up the bile.

That evening in detention, you ignore him, and he doesn't acknowledge you either. You finish labeling the files in silence, until you're both dismissed with a stern look from Professor Snape.

--------TIME--SKIP-----NEXT--MORNING--IN--THE--GREAT--HALL--------

You walk into the Great Hall and sit in between Cedric and Daphne.

"Good morning beautiful!" He says, while Daphne just grins at you both. You're not together, but everyone thinks you are. Cedric's just very gay, and you're straight.

You turn to grin back at Daphne, so you miss the flash of jealousy that stuck in Blaise's eyes.

You and your friends headed down to the Quidditch pitch, and they went off to find a seat after wishing you luck while you changed into your Quidditch robes.

Heading out onto the field, you sent an air kiss into the stands where Cedric was, and he winked back, while Daphne just rolled her eyes.

They lost the Quidditch match to Gryffindor, so tensions where high as you walked back to the changing rooms with your team, so maybe it was inevitable that you and Blaise would start arguing again.

You had had enough, so you yelled at him. "Why do we always have to argue! Can't we just get along!"

He frowned, and turned away slightly. "It's because I love you, okay!? I love you!"

You're frozen, but you manage to reply. "I - I love you too." He looks at you shocked. "You - you do?"

"Yes" you replied, before you pulled each other in for a kiss.

The months after that are filled with secret snogging in the Room of Requirement, and stealing short moments alone whenever possible, and making love silently in the dorms when everyone else is in class.

You don't want your cousin to know, Draco would freak out, and telling the rest of the school would mean that Draco found out pretty quickly, so you just didn't tell anyone.

But you can't keep anything from nosy cousins for long. One day, Draco bursts in on you and Blaise making out in a closet. As you predicted, Draco yelled at you for an hour, before leaving after muttering something about using protection.

When the annual Yule Ball rolls around, you go with Blaise, you see people glaring at the both of you as walk into the hall hand in hand - you have many admirers and they don't like seeing you with other boys. Blaise just smirks cockily at them. He knows you're his, he's not worried, and you know he's your's, so you're not worried either.

The night felt magical. After the last dance, he leaned in and you kissed him, softly, sparks tingled in your stomach. Cedric and Daphne cheered loudly, their whoops echoing through the hall.

"Ok! That's enough! That's my cousin you're kissing mate!"

You pulled away and stuck your tongue out at Draco, before looking at Blaise and wrapping him in your arms as you both walking away to bed, or maybe a quiet classroom.
