Luna Mia || Theodore Nott

Chapter: 11

"Ok let me get this straight; your father had a really close friend group which he never told you anything about, you discovered that he was friends with Potter's parents which again he never told you about, and he's deflecting from answering your questions about Sirius Black who killed Potter's parents and is on the run to kill him too"
"Exactly" Nott and I sat in the courtyard after we finished our last class for the day. He sat leaning his back against a tree while I sat cross legged facing him. I filled him all up about everything I knew.

"So to know what your dad is hiding, the key is Potter"
"What? why?"
"See that's why you need a Slytherin's help. You see sweetheart, everything leads back to one person. Your father's dear friends, Potter's parents, Sirius Black, Potter" I ignored his little nicknames, I was used to them by now, that was Nott just flirting around with every breathing woman there is. That didn't mean I didn't feel that weird feeling in my stomach. I pushed it away though. Never.
"And knowing Harry as much as I do, he's gonna head to the bottom of this somehow, probably getting in trouble on the way"
"Potter is gonna lead us to the truth" He concluded, snapping his fingers.
"Alright that's it, we'll snoop after Harry then" I stood up about to leave, when he grabbed my arm. I felt a shock of electricity spread from where his warm hand touched my bare arm.

"Leaving so soon without any thanks?"
"What do you want Nott"
"Just a little thank you, you know considering I'll be helping you and all" he winked at me while standing up.
I sighed. "..thank you, you satisfied now?" I reluctantly said after some noticeable effort.
"Ehhh you still owe me a drink" was the last thing he said while walking past me.

I just didn't understand this guy, but again it's Theodore Nott. He's just a walking talking flirt. Not a single girl at hogwarts wasn't hit on by him, and most girls try to hit on him too. I wasn't going to let his little tricks distract me from finding out what I need to know.

This weekend was an anticipated one; It's the first quidditch match of the year, not only that but also it's a Gryffindor vs. Slytherin match, the most intense ones. The week was busy with training of both teams. I was excited since we're finally old enough to understand the hype and students from our year will be playing. The day of the match, I was sitting with Katie and Elle on the Slytherin table for breakfast. Everyone woke up early to get ready and head to the pitch, the Gryffindors and Slytherins each clad in their house colors from head to toe. Katie was wearing bell bottom jeans with a beige turtle neck and red cardigan on top. She had a Gryffindor hat on top of her head. Elle was wearing a little black skirt with a white top and black boots. I didn't go overboard too. I wore some jeans with a  knit off-white sweater that had tiny flowers embroidered on it, a pair of converses and the Gryffindor scarf. I didn't want anything to clash with the scarf colors.

We were excited for the match, chatting as we ate our delicious food. Then the boys entered the great hall. They were warming up before the match. Malfoy, Zabini and Nott were all on the quidditch team. Malfoy was the seeker while the other two were chasers. We looked at them as they headed towards us, and oh my days. They were wearing their quidditch uniforms and I can't lie, they looked pipping hot. Guess it's the shoulder pads and buckles and all but oh are the slytherin boys hot.

Specifically the one with sleepy green eyes and soft brown waves that I wish I could touch-

No sara. Pull yourself together girl. I snapped myself out of staring into Nott's soul and looked down at my plate, feeling heat creep up my cheeks. Katie and Elle were in no better conditions, each one of them tryna hide her amusement. The boys seemed to notice, and they were proud about the impact of their presence it seems.

"Hey ladies" Ah Nott, always the charming. " You excited to get your asses beaten today?" The question was mainly for me.
"I am actually excited to see your broken ego after you lose" I replied with a fake smile.
"Where is your slytherin pride Tracy" Malfoy's icey blue eyes were scanning Elle, who wasn't wearing any slytherin attires.
"Didn't like any of the merch, Malfoy" she smirked at him. He held his Quidditch sweater which he had next to him and tossed it to her.
"Don't want you embarrassing our house."
Well just friends my ass. I looked over to Katie who was looking back at me with a knowing smirk, we sure were going to give her hell for that later.
"You know, you guys should sit with Elle and cheer for us" Zabini suggested.
"By any chance, we'd be dead before the end of the match, considering the fact that we're Gryffindors and all" Katie told him.
"Easy" He unwrapped the slytherin scarf of his neck, wrapped it around hers and took off her Gryffindor hat. "You'll blend seamlessly"

The red on Katie's cheeks was so obvious I was afraid they're gonna burst.
"Way to go Blaise, that's my boy" Nott was sending Blaise a full on grin, and Blaise was blushing under the attention.
"Shut up Theo" he shoved his shoulder as he tried to hide his red cheeks. How cute. I think we found Katie a match. Elle was excited about the idea trying to urge us to sit with her, and with the whole Zabini x Katie interaction, I couldn't say no.
"Wait for me."

I headed to my dorm, tossing the Gryffindor scarf and opening my closet. I had pushed it to the far back, Nott's slytherin cardigan. I wore it and headed back, his cologne wafting my nose.
"Here, we're all ready to blend in"
I got an impressed stare from Elle and Katie, Elle giving me the "oh you're not running away from this" look.
"Nice sweater" Nott commented, his eyes twinkling with amusement. I guess he never expected me to wear it again.
"Thanks, now let's head for the game"
