Chapter 51: Abilities

Olivia sat at the breakfast table the next morning, her confrontation with Pansy the night before putting her in a sour mood. As predicted by Serena the girl picked at her food before pushing the plate away and pulling at the sleeves of her jumper.

Blaise has slipped in opposite the her after having finished up his conversation with Draco, when Olivia had heard his voice that morning she had made no effort to turn to the boy, not even wanting to stick around and only told Blaise her, Serena and Alexis would meet him in the Great Hall.

"Pansy and Theo bumped into each other this morning." Blaise started, biting into a slice of toast, his eyes cast on Olivia and her blank face.

Said girl looked up from her food and shrugged her shoulders, "So?"

Blaise leaned forwards, "Do you know where they bumped into each other?"

"Am I supposed to?" She asked, narrowing her eyes at the tan boy.

Serena was also starting to grow tired of the boys vagueness, "Come on Blaise, spit it out."

"Fine, alright – it was in yours and Draco's bathroom."

The people listening in on the conversation rounded on Olivia as she blinked at Blaise, "You mean, Pansy.....and Draco–?"

"Yes but what about you and Theo?" Astoria butted in from down the table. Heads turned to face the girl, all in question of why she was getting involved. Raising her hands in defence Astoria kept quiet, waiting for the answer to her question.

Olivia scratched behind her ear, "Nothing like....that....happened, he followed me out of the common room last night. I told him a couple things, showed him some others then we came back and talked right into the night. Nothing else happened."

"So you didn't snog him?" Alexis was the first to ask, receiving a funny look from Blaise. The girl sighed at the expression on her boyfriends face, "What? A girl can be curious, it's not a sin sweetie."

Olivia too sighed, "Yes we did but only once, it didn't feel right so I stopped it."

"Well then what in Salazar's name did you show him?" Serena exasperated, ducking as a delivery owl flew dangerously close to her head.

Olivia caught the letters that had been delivered in her name, flicking though them she was just about to answer until her name was called out across the Great Hall. Looking up she saw Professor McGonagall stood at the entrance, her beady eyes set on the girl.

Olivia frowned as she collected the letters and went to stand up, "What the fuck have you done now?" Blaise asked her.

"Honestly, I have no idea." She sighed, scurrying off to the Transfiguration Professor, missing Draco as she passed him in such a rush.

The boy took her seat and rubbed his tired eyes, "Now what's she done?" He asked curiously.

Serena scoffed, "What hasn't she done is the question you should be asking."

It had just reached afternoon on that Saturday when a select few Slytherin's had found themselves bored of homework and essays. The Quidditch team had just returned from their first practice with Graham Montague back as the team captain and their new seeker.

Draco had told the team he had suffered a terrible fall durning the summer, much similar to Graham's that had left him unable to play that season. The news had left Montague a valued player down as he had quickly learnt of Potter's new status of Gryffindor Captain, and with no one else in their house as good as a seeker as Draco he was left with the alternative to pick the closest they could get to the platinum blonde.
