Touch [Theodore Nott]

Flashback 3

Pansy was doing my eyeshadow I really was rubbish at applying makeup

"Are you excited for tonight?" I asked her

"I'm so excited Draco and I are going to have so much fun" she got all giddy

I was wearing a silk white dress that was a low back, it exposed my upper and lower back stopping just above my arse

She tied my hair into a low bun

"Beautiful" She smiled as we looked in the mirror

"Thank you Pansy" I hugged her

Walking down these heels were so bloody uncomfortable

"Merlin Flora" Theo smiled widely at me

He looked so nice in his all black suit and his hair done

"You clean up nicely" I smiled

He pulled me into a hug, his hands on my bare skin

"You ready?" He interlaced his fingers with mine

We met up with everyone before we took our pictures

"Alright now smile" The photographer said

He wrapped his arms around me and we both smiled

Everyone looked at us as we went to get our seats, maybe because our colors were complete opposites

I really hope Theo doesn't want to dance because I'm terrible at dancing

"Come on" He pulled my hand

Nope i'm dancing to every song today

When a slow song came up I felt butterflies in my stomach and he placed his hands on my bare skin his cold rings

We were so close our bodies swaying

"You're the most beautiful person i've ever seen" he whispered in my ear

I knew I was blushing

I looked at his kind eyes

"Do you want to go somewhere just us two?" I asked

He interlaced his fingers with mine and led me out of the dance floor

We walked and I realized we were going to the astromy tower

"This is my favorite place" I said looking up at the view

He walked over to me and cupped my face

"I think you're my favorite person"

He leaned in and kissed my lips

As we kissed I ran my fingers through his chest, the kisses got more passionate and intimate, his fingers never left my face though

After he pulled away we just smiled and I stayed in his arms

After the Yule ball we grew closer and closer

I have to admit I was disappointed when he didn't ask me to hogsmead but I guess were still just friends really

Pansy and I were talking in the common room when I heard someone crying

It was a girl coming out of Theo's room putting her shirt back on

Theo followed.

This piece of shit. I felt my heart literally break

Pansy and I exchanged looks and I ran up to my room

"Flora" he called out but I ignored him

I ran straight to my bed

Dont cry you're just friends. Just friends. He can do whatever he wants. You're only friends.

That whole afternoon Pansy and Daphne stayed out of the room

I laid in my room trying to calm myself down and get my head right

"Hey Flora" They both came up

"Hey" I tried to fake a smile

"I'm sorry Flora" Daphne sat and hugged me

"I have something that might make you feel better" Pansy sat down

"I don't want to drink or smoke" I said

"Merlin is that my reputation?" she asked

We both nodded

"No the girl, her name is Celeste" She said

"That doesn't make it better" I wiped my eyes

"Well let me finish" "She was crying because apparently when Theo was you know in her he started groaning another girls name" She smiled

"Well whos" Daphne sat up

"Well Flora of course" "that's why she was crying" pansy started laughing

I have to admit it did make me feel a bit better. But then again why was he even with another girl if I clouded up his mind.

"come on this is your chance" Pansy said

The next day she was throwing an after party for the second task

She had forced me to pull out the white skirt and a small little green shirt she let me borrow

"It's a little small your shirt" I pulled it down

"that's the point smart arse" she winked

I walked down and tried to pull down my skirt that just barely covered my arse

I saw Theo's eyes again glued to me

"Flora Burke" Fuck it was Adrian

"Hey Adrian" I smiled

"Been awhile" he smiled grabbing a strand of my hair

I looked over his shoulder and Theo was looking straight at us with his fist clenched

"Too long" I pulled him by the shirt and started kissing him

His kissed were sloppy and aggressive. His hands roamed up my skirt

I opened my eyes and stared at Theo as I snogged Adrian

"Has anyone told you, you taste like strawberries" Adrian broke away

I gave him an odd look and walked away

"Quiet the show back there" Theo said as I walked over

"Where's Celeste" I snapped

I saw a large smile grow on his face

"That's her name" he said laughing

"You're unbelievable" I tried to hold back my smile

He turned to me, still in his presence I froze the smell of mahogany and spearmint intoxicated me

"These" he put his thumb on my bottom lip

"They belong to me" he pierced my eyes with his

What the fuck is happening right now.
