Year 4
Athena Jones

I‘m sitting in my lecture for muggle studies, Theodore is running a little late I’m guessing because he isn’t here yet. It’s been almost an year we’ve been friends?

I mean we only talk when our friends aren’t around, which is during muggle studies or, we sneak out for late night walks—suddenly the door opens and there he is, Theodore, trying to make his way through the throngs of people filing in for class. He notices me and quickly makes his way towards me, his cheeks already red from the effort.

A few moments later, he sits next to me and smiles that familiar cheeky grin of his. “Sorry I’m a little late.”

“It’s all right. You didn’t keep me waiting long after all,” I reply, trying to maintain my composure.

The lecture begins and we both have to keep our focus on our work but occasionally I peek over at him or he does the same and I can’t help this giddy feeling in my tummy.

“Thea,” He whispered to me keeping his eyes in front to make sure the professor is isn’t looking at us.

Raise my eyebrow in curiosity, turning towards him, my cheeks slightly red and my breath catching In my throat at his sudden closeness.

I was so enamored by his charming personality. He was sweet and funny, and always knew how to make me smile. In that moment, all I could think about was how much I liked him.

“Are you free, tomorrow or tonight?” He asks his voice low as he scribbles something on his parchment.

I felt my heart skipped a beat and my cheeks blush a bright red, realizing he was going to ask me out on a date. “Yes, I am free both tonight and tomorrow. Are you asking me out on A date?”

“Yep. I want to take you to this Muggle restaurant I know about,” He said, scribbling his notes even faster now, trying to make a point in our conversation and trying not to get caught by the professor.

I faked a gasp “And I thought you’d never ask,”

His eyes sparkled as he flashed me his cheeky grin, causing me to feel myself getting flustered by his playful attitude.

I couldn’t believe it. I had been pining for this moment for a while now but now that it was happening, I didn’t believe it. Was he really asking me Out? I smiled softly back at him.

“So is that a yes or no?” He raises his eyebrows.

I looked up pretending to think “You know since you’ve taken so long, I’d have to think about it,”

He laughed heartily, his voice full of mischief, “Is that a way of saying no so that I don’t feel bad?” He asked with an amused laugh and I pretended to think again, causing him to chuckled softly.

“Yes, this is me being considerate,”I replied, “After all, I don’t want to hurt your feelings, In fact I would love to go out with you.”

“I knew it,” He responded, leaning back in his chair and crossing his arms. I’ve won you over with my charm and good looks, haven’t I?” He asked playfully, his cheeky grin causing me to feel my cheeks burn again.
