Alya had agreed to meet with Winston in the library after class. The pair shared a love for Muggle Literature as Winstons mother was also a Muggle. They both read in silence occasionally flicking through the pages. Winstons eyes drifted up every so often glancing at Alya before going back down to the books pages.

Alya enjoyed spending time with Winston. He was reserved and quiet but polite and well spoken. The type of boy that seemed perfect at first glance. The type of person that would go far in life easily.

She was about to turn the page of her book when Winston cleared his throat catching her attention.

Looking at him with intrigue he fiddled with the corner of the page of his book looking down at the table.

"Are you okay?" Alya asked making him look up from the table to her face.

"Huh? Er. Yeah" he smiled weakly swallowing

Alya smiled back before going back to her reading.

"Actually" Winston started, "I was wondering if you've got a Valentine at all or if you've got any plans?"

"Not really" Alya shrugged absentmindedly, "I was just going to write to my mum and maybe have a walk around the grounds. It's been nice outside lately. But other than that, no why?"

"I was wondering, if erm you'd like to go to Hogsmeade with me?" He said failing to meet her eyes

"As friends?" Alya asked

"No, I thought maybe it could be a date. If you're comfortable with it, that is" Winston replied still fiddling with the books page

Alya thought to herself. She'd gone on dates before but she hasn't been on one with anyone for a while. Winston was a nice and good looking boy. Why shouldn't she say yes?

"Oh, yeah" she nodded, "it sounds like fun"

"Great" Winston smiled as he visibly sagged in relief, the tension fading from his shoulders.




"So you're telling me Winston Adams asked you on a date?!" Daria exclaimed as the four girls sat around in the common room.

"That's what I just said" Alya confirmed as she wrapped a blanket tighter around her shoulders

"I knew he liked you" Amalie said smugly, "it was obvious"

"Do you like him though?" Roxanne asked

"Yeah he's nice" Alya replied

"Not like that" Roxanne rolled her eyes, "you know what I mean"

"I don't fancy him if that's what you're asking me" Alya continued, "he's nice and you never know I may grow to like him. You'll never know unless you give it a chance"

"It's funny, you don't say the same thing about James" Daria added

"Well Potters different to Winston. He's nice and quiet while Potters... everything but"

"God I can't wait until Potter finds out you've got a date. It might start the third wizarding war" Daria laughed

"I'm hoping he won't find out. But I don't fancy my chances" Alya rolled her eyes.

"I'm pretty sure knows everything about you at this point. Give it a few days and he'll know" Amalie laughed imagining the scene.
