A/N: Hey guys!! Happy Monday!! This is this weeks first update! And thanks to those of you who are reading the story! I'm pretty sure there's not that many of you, but I'm still grateful. So... How many of you guys are sure of what Oliver was going to ask Sophia? This chapter is dedicated to Booktify(Sophia Wright) and UmbridgeOWLs. They are big fans of this story, and I'm really grateful. Also, first chapter in this character's point of view. And so now... It's time for the new chapter!

Oliver Wood's P.O.V.

"So... Sophia... I've been wanting to ask you. Would y-...." Just as I was about to ask her something, Professor McGonagall strutted into the classroom.

She said, "Welcome to Transfiguration: Year 7. The seats you are sitting in will be your permanent seats." Yes! "No talking. Now we shall begin the lesson."

Thanks, Professor! I finally got up the courage to ask Sophia, and now it's ruined! I've been wanting to ask her this since fourth year! I'll probably never get the courage to ask her again. I'm no Gryffindor. I don't have any courage. I'm scared. I know what Fred and George told me last night, but I don't believe them. It was probably one of their ideas of a prank.

Flashback


I was sitting on my bed daydreaming about Sophia, when Fred and George walked in.

"Hey mate. We have a surprise for you!" Fred teased.

"What now?" I asked annoyed. I had planning to do.

"We heard some big news. We confirmed it to." George continued. I just sighed.

"You're really going to want to listen to us after this."

"Fine then. Tell me the big surprise." I said.

George said, "Sophia likes you."

"As in likes you likes you."  Fee continued. I scoffed at their words. Sure she does.

"And what makes you so sure of that?" I questioned. I needed to know the truth. Did she really like me? Probably not. I'm just getting my hopes up...

"We confronted her about it." Fred said.

"She thinks you don't like her. You need to get on that mate." George stated.

"Yeah. Before another boy does." Fred added.

"Thanks for letting me know. I'll think of a plan. Night." With that I went to bed with my thoughts on how to impress Sophia.

End of Flashback

See what I mean? They're probably trying to see how embarrassed I will get when Sophia says no. How could she like me? I'm the Quidditch obsessed  freak. I'm the one that sometimes falls behind n schoolwork, because I'm too busy writing Quidditch plays. 

Although... She's usually doing the same thing. She'll work on plays with me, until the lat possible minute. Then she rapidly does her homework so she can help again. Hmmm... Maybe she does like me.

"Mr. Wood!" Professor Mcgonagall snapped me away from my thoughts. 

"Yes, Professor?" I'm in so much trouble now.

"Can you answer my question that I asked you?" She questioned. Shit...

"Um... No... Sorry, Professor. It won't happen again." I stammered. 

"I should think  not. 10 points from Gryffindor." Groans were heard from all around the room. Sorry, fellow Gryffindors!

Sophia nudged me and said, "It's okay, Oliver. You just zoned out for a couple minutes. She asked you to perform the spell that can transform a pet or animal into a water goblet." I nodded.

Professor Mcgonagall spoke up again and said, "Mr. Wood... Can you please perform the spell on the board? I did not write the incantation though. That's the point of this lesson, to be able to describe a spell and have someone perform it. Or to have someone perform a spell and already know what will happen."

"Of course, Professor." I looked towards the owl in front of me and said, "1... 2... 3... Vera Verto." With that the owl shrunk and turned to glass. It was a water goblet. That's a relief. If you perform this spell wrong it can be very painful for the animal. 

She walked over and said, "Good. I'm going to do the counter curse." She did and added, "Now try it with non-verbal magic." Sorry, owl.

"Okay..." I tapped the bird three time and thought 'Vera Verto'. Luck must be on my side today. The owl successfully transformed into a water goblet. 

"Good job. 5 points to Gryffindor." Yes!  I earned back half of the points I lost.

Professor Mcgonagall then announced, "Class dismissed. Hurry along now. You have more classes to get to."

Sophia and I gathered our things, and we started heading to Double Potions. 

Just outside of the classroom I said, "About what I wanted to ask you earlier..."

She perked up at that and said, "Well... Go ahead and ask me then."

I took a deep breath and asked, "Wouldyouliketogooutwithme?" So much for taking a deep breath and staying calm.

She laughed and said, "Mind repeating that again? I couldn't understand you."

"Would you like to go with me?" I repeated much slower.
