More Than Heart Could Desire 《 A George Weasley Love Story 》

Chapter #33 Diana's Secret

NARRATOR'S POV :

Anna couldn't sleep well last night. She was worried about Fred, as he was upset about Diana not liking him back, and she was extremely anxious about Diana and her unobtrusiveness. She slept late at night and woke up early in the morning but didn't move because she didn't want to disturb George who had been holding her all night. But when Anna had stayed still in his arms for more than a hour, awake, and couldn't stay unmoved anymore, she smoothly scooped out of his grip, without waking him up.

She started to collect her stuff, her dress robes, jewellery and sandals to take them back to her dorm. She saw that Chocolate was still asleep in her little bed which Diana gifted her on Christmas, so she left her there. She walked towards the door and opened it. The clicking of the door knob awoke George and he saw Anna leaving the dorm.

"Anna", Anna heard George calling her name in a raspy voice.

"Morning Georgie", she turned around to face him.

"Where do you think you are sneaking off to?", George asked, rubbing his eyes.

"I'm not sneaking. I'm just going back to my dorm", Anna said.

"And why do you have to go there?", George asked raising his eyebrows.

"Georgie that's my dorm. I have my stuff there. But right now I'm going because I need to talk to Diana", Anna answered.

"Okay", George said.

She left his dorm and he slept again, tired from dancing last night.
Anna opened the door of her dorm and found the room empty. She thought that the girls would've gone to breakfast.

She was busy placing her dress and other stuff in her closet when she heard the doorknob click. She turned her head to see Diana leaving bathroom.

"Hey Anna", Diana said smiling. But Anna narrowed her eyebrows and glared at her.

"Okay! So you're mad at me", Diana said, sitting down on Anna's bed. She came and sat beside her.

"Anna listened to me. I know you're upset because of Fred but I never thought of him that way", Diana said.

"Is it because of the one you've been exchanging secret owls with for a few months now?", Anna said and looked at her. Diana turned ashen at ones with shock.

"I-I don't know w-what are you talking about", Diana said, reddening suddenly.

"Seriously, Diana. I thought we were best friends. And you were keeping secrets this whole time. I never thought you would keep something from me", Anna said, very disheartened.

"Anna, it's nothing like that. I just didn't tell you because it was nothing official", Diana said.

"So there is a boy?", Anna asked, her face softened.

"Um..yes there is", Diana said, shyly.

"What's his name and where is he from?", Anna asked, not showing her excitement.

"Louis, Louis Allemand. I met him in Paris last Christmas", Diana told, her cheeks going scarlet.

"Of course you met him in Paris", Anna said. "What else?", she asked.

"Nothing much, as you know we've been exchanging letters but nothing is official yet", Diana said.

"But, yesterday he sent me an owl, wished me Christmas and told me something I've always wanted to hear", Diana told. She was blushing crimson. It was the first time Anna saw her blushing for a boy.

"And what is that?", Anna asked.

"He told me that he really likes me and he can't stop thinking about me", she said. Diana had similar feelings for Louis, she liked him and couldn't stop thinking about him.
