Starting my fourth year my heart raced walking into train. Yes Theo did write to me over summer talking about the most random things

"Is this outfit appropriate?" Caleb my brother looked at me

"I want to make a good impression" I smiled

"an impression of what that you're a whore?" Mark said and they both started laughing their arses off

It was only a smaller white skirt than usual and a small light blue tank top that complimented my breast

I was feeling more confident then ever this year

"I'll miss you guys" I hugged them tightly

As I got on the train I looked for Daphne I knew Pansy would be sitting with Draco

As I walked I noticed guys eyes on me and I started to regret my outfit choice

I was about to murder Daphne when I finally saw her and she was sitting with Montague. Fuck

"Flora Burke" Theo stood up. He eyed me up and down

"Theodore Nott" I smiled and sat down across from him

His eyes were glued in me the entire ride as I tried to ignore his stares

"Would you lot want to try any of our new products?" It was one of the twins, our families we're close especially our fathers

"Dressed like that I can give you a special discount" He looked at my breast

I blushed a deep red

"Fred Weasley do you kiss your mother with that mouth" I raised my eyebrows

Everyone looked at us

I stood up and hugged him tightly and George

"Why didn't you grace us with your presence at the games?" George asked

"You know i've never been one for quidditch" I shrugged

"You must come to my games this year" Fred smirked

"How's Charlie?" I asked

"He's heading back to Romania tomorrow"

"I remember how sad Charlie was leaving Caleb" Fred smiled

"Caleb recons it was the worst break up he's ever gone through" I laughed

"Mums upset you've never came over to the burrow" George said

"I tell her that Slytherins crowned jewel cannot let her guard down" Fred said

"You lot are so dramatic" I rolled my eyes

"We'll see you around Burke" they walked away

"since when are you friends with the Weasleys?" Theo asked

"Our fathers are best friends i've known them my entire life" I wondered if Theo was jealous

-

"Pansy i'm not really the party type" I tried to protest

"It's halloween" She rolled her eyes

The anticipation after the schools came over dinner hadn't died down at all

I just wore pants and a long sleeve

"Did you see those french girls" I heard Montague

"They don't make girls like that over here" I heard Theo laugh

I ignored his comment and tried not to let those words get to me

Everyone started drinking or smoking I just stood around I hated parties and Daphne was drunk having a good time

"EVERYONE WERE PLAYING A GAME" Pansy announced and the music stopped

"Truth or dare" fuck was it too late to back out

I grew anxious when it got to Theo

"Dare" of course he would

"Kiss Flora"

my heart stopped and started to panic

"Come on Pans she's like my best friend"

My eyes started to water and I felt everyone looking at me

I stood up and walked out of the common room

I was embarrassed and kind of heart broken, I'm so stupid for thinking he'd feel the same

I went by a window and stared out to the abyss and just one tear ran down my face

"Flora" I wiped away that tear so quickly

"I want to be alone" I turned away from him

"And what if I don't want to leave" he placed his hands on my hips

He turned me around to face him

He put his hands on my face

"Whyre you crying"

"It's none of your business" I snapped

He leaned an inch away from my lips. My breath hitched

"Anything concerning you is my business"

"Flora I didn't want our first kiss to be because of a dare"

He closed the space between our lips

My heart raced I felt my body tingle head to toe

He pulled away and just simply walked back into the common room

-

He made me watch the first task with him and his friends. We haven't talked about the kiss or kissed again

But now it's really hard watching him talking because merlin those lips

-

All of slytherin house gathered in the great hall

"The yule ball" Snape announced

All of girls looked at each other and Daphne and I rolled our eyes out of dread

"Who are you planning on going with? Warrington asked at dinner

Daphne and I now sat with them. I sat next to Theo and she sat across from me next to Montague

"I'm going with a french girl that's for sure" Blaise said smiling

"Daphne would you want to go with me?" Montague asked and I got so excited and happy for her

She was now a deep red "Yeah okay" she smiled wildly

I wondered if Theo would ask me if not i'm afraid Fred Weasley would beat him too it

-

I was in the common room finishing my potions essay when he came down from his room

"Flora" he smiled

"Theo"

"Ive come to ask you something" he got nervous

"Go on" I couldn't meet his eyes

"Would you like to go to the ball with me?" he pulled my chin to meet his eyes

My heart stopped being this close with him again

"Absolutely" I smiled

Our noses now connected, our lips so close, his hands moved to my waist

"FLORA" I jumped away as the door opened

"Draco, he asked me" Pansy jumped up and down

she had been waiting for this day and night I ran up and we hugged

"come on we have to find you a date" She pulled me up to the room

I gave him a small wave

Pansy was so happy for me when I told her about Theo asking me
