Kyra's POV
To be honest, that whole week was the most horrible week of my life until the end of it. It was more worse than the time I said my secret in front of Oliver and Katie. It was was worse than when Oliver was mad at me at practice. It was worse than when Draco ignored me. It was so much worse.
Because I was completely honest, I loved Draco. I loved being around him and I loved watching him. I really did love him.
I bet he loves me to. But I ruined it.
I'm not going to blab on about what a good girlfriend I was, because I wasn't. I see were I went wrong. He was right, I could stay with Draco and love him all I want, but I would always have this feeling that I want to be with Oliver. Because I did in a way.
Oliver hasn't talked to me except for at practice. I've been busy anyway. With classes and homework and practice Oh My!
My sarcasm and humor is getting me through this week. Bear with me.
"You all can leave.Kyra stay for a minute." Oliver says after Saturday's practice when I had finally broken down in tears. Everyone leaves the field and waves good-bye to me trying to be polite. "Are you okay?" he says and walks over to me laying his arm on my shoulder.
"No." I say sobbing.
"I can tell." he says and I give him my don't-be-sarcastic-or-funny-at-the-moment look. "Never mind. Um, are you and Draco still dating?" he asks me.
"No. Yes. I don't know. I guess not." I say calming down.
"Kyra, remember when you first when out with him and you didn't understand why with your insecure little self? And I said why not. I meant it. It won't be your last boyfriend." he says to me.
"I know it won't. It's just I-I really liked him." I say.
"I know you did. You'll get over it. And I'm not just saying that because I want to go with you, not saying I do or anything." he says quickly making me giggle.
"Don't make me laugh! I'm supposed to be upset."
"Um-hmm."
"Whatever.I've got homework to do. SO do YOU!" I say poking him.
"Yeah, I know." It's for our Astronomy class. They recently moved me and Hermione up to fifth year astronomy. I've been struggling to catch up. So Oliver offered to help tonight on top of the tower.
Around 8:30
Oliver and I chose to meet at 9:00 so it will be dark enough to watch the stars. As soon as I leave the tower I'm going to sleep so i decided to go ahead and throw on some pj's.
I put on a white pajama nightie and some pajama shorts (not technically pajama shorts, just regular shorts that I wear to bed). I grab my workbook from Astronomy and a jacket just in case it gets cold and head up the billions of steps to the Astronomy Tower.
When I get there Oliver is waiting for me. He's laying down and looking up at the stars, his feet together and his arms crossing his chest.
"Come lay by me." he says not taking his eyes from the dark blue starry sky.
"Okay." I say and walk over and lie next to him, copying the way he is laying. "It's so beautiful, isn't it."
"Yeah. We ought to know, flying in the sky all the time."
"But that's in the morning. Now this, this is beautiful."
We sit there and point out constellations and do our work, until it's 9:45, then we are finished.
"Kyra?" he says and glances at me.
"Yes?" I say.
"You know when I said that my favorite place in the world is the qudditch field, and that would never change?" he asks which of course I remember. It was that conversation that let me know we were still best friends.
"Yeah." I say wanting to know where this conversation is going.
"It's changed. This is my favorite place in the world."
"The Astronomy Tower is your favorite place in the world?" i ask raising an eyebrow at him, but turning quickly to look back at the stars, in hopes to not miss a single change among-st them.
"No." he says he voice getting slightly confident. "Being right here, laying next to you, looking at the stars is my favorite place in the world." he takes my hand and holds it.
We lay there for a moment, his right hand and my left hand together, my red hair spread out, some of it touching Oliver, but he doesn't mind, and we're looking at the stars.
"Go out with me Kyra. Be my girlfriend. Please." he says in a normal tone like he just said the most normal thing ever.
"Oliver. I just broke up with Draco this week, so dating you would be slightly wrong. I'm here in my nightie, and you just asked me out. And I'm going to say yes because it's about time." I say, my voice strong.
We continue to look at the stars until 10:30.
