3 A.M. (Oliver Wood) *ON HOLD*

Chapter One: Goblet of Fire

Celeste and Lupin lived in Celeste's manor for six weeks after Celeste graduated from Hogwarts. In that time, the two learned how to work around each other. Lupin had contacted Sirius a couple of times, checking in on him, and giving the man little updates about himself and Celeste. Sirius didn't really seem to ask about Celeste, but Lupin wasn't going to give up hope that the man might change and actually become the father Celeste needed.

Over the six weeks she had been out of school, Celeste began to work on her chocolate making. It was a good thing Lupin lived with her, since she often had him try the chocolate and tell her if he liked it or not. She didn't only stick to chocolate though, she did make some desserts and such, but they all had something to do with chocolate—not that Lupin was complaining about all the chocolate, but he seen a pattern in what she would make.

Oliver visited Celeste often, and the two went on dates as many times as they could. Oliver would soon have to start training with his quidditch team—Puddlemere United—so he spent as much time with Celeste as he could before he had to leave. He promised to visit her whenever he could, but he definitely didn't want to make any promises he couldn't keep.

"I think we should move in together." Oliver commented, causing Celeste to frown.

"I don't know, don't I need to meet your parents first?" She asked, making him smile.

"Of course, love, but afterward, I would like for us to live together; preferably before I leave for quidditch." He said, and she nodded.

"When should I meet them?" She asked, causing him to sheepishly grin at her.

"I may have already gotten a letter from Mum asking to meet you. I meant to tell you, but I forgot. You actually reminded me when you asked about them." He replied, making her roll her eyes and laugh.

"Oli, I swear you'd lose your head if it wasn't attached to your body." She joked, and he chuckled.

Celeste was really nervous about meeting Oliver's family. She had heard from Oliver and his friends that Oliver's parents were really nice, but his friends weren't exactly his girlfriend, so of course the parents would treat them different than they probably would her. Honestly, she could barely put on a brave face for Oliver, but she had to make him believe she wasn't as terrified as she was.

It had been weeks since she heard from her aunt and uncle, so she doubted they would cause any problems, but for all she knew, they could ruin everything for her. She had made sure she was no longer labeled a Malfoy the moment she stopped living in their manor, and from that moment, her uncle refused to talk to her. He disowned her, and Narcissa couldn't go against him. If she did, there would be major consequences. 

Truth be told, Lucius could never fully disown his niece. The young girl reminded him too much of his sister, and he knew his sister would've hated him if he completely disowned his niece. He refused to give the girl any attention, but at the same time, he snuck galleons into her vault—the one Narcissa believe she had hidden from him. He didn't know about the girl's manor, but he did know about her vault.

"Have you found a building for your chocolate shop yet?" Oliver asked, as he picked up one of the many new chocolates Celeste had created.

"Yes, but I'm trying to think of a name for the shop before I buy the place. It'll feel like a more realistic dream, if I have a name for the shop before I even buy a building." She replied, and he nodded in agreement.

"Well, you're amazing at making chocolate and chocolate related things, so I know for a fact that your shop will do amazing," He commented, and she smiled,"Y'know, maybe you should ask Fred and George for a name for your shop. They're pretty creative themselves, if I'm honest." He said, causing her to gasp.

"Why didn't I think of them?" She asked rhetorically,"I've always loved their creativity, especially when it came to pranks; as long as they weren't directed towards me." She replied, and he chuckled.

"They knew better than to prank me. I'd make them do one hundred laps around the quidditch field before practice." He answered, making her pout.

"If only I had that type of power over them when I was in school." She jokingly commented, causing Oliver to smirk.

"You would've, if you would've agreed to be my girlfriend years ago." Oliver replied, making the girl roll her eyes.

"You didn't even ask me until our last school year, if anything, you stared and admired from afar for years." She retorted, causing him to blush slightly.

"I never thought you noticed." He murmured, and she grinned.

"Of course I noticed. I've always noticed you, even just a little bit." She replied, making his heart skip a beat, and his cheeks to redden just a bit more.

"You really are something else, Celeste." He said, as he slowly leaned forward to kiss her lips lightly.

"Well, of course I am. I don't think you'd ever love me if I wasn't." She replied, making him chuckle.

Celeste laid her head on Oliver's shoulder, and intertwined her fingers with his. Lupin had been out looking for a job, so Celeste didn't feel as awkward showing Oliver affection. She didn't want to make Lupin feel uncomfortable, so she was careful with how much affection she showed Oliver in front of him.

Also, Celeste wasn't too use to showing affection, since her aunt and uncle didn't really show her much. She and Draco showed very little affection to each other, but it was more than her aunt and uncle showed them. She wouldn't have been surprised if she was the only one who showed Draco affection. She just hoped leaving him there wasn't going to completely ruin his life. She hoped he would remember what she had told him so many times while she lived there, if he didn't, she'd be very upset...
