Cookies for the Captain (Another Oliver Wood short story)....... {complete}

Sneaking Out

Your POV

It was midnight when I was shaken awake by Sophia.

"Time to make cookies sis"
She whispered into my ear which kinda startled me.
I groaned and got out of bed.
"Remember it's for Oliver"
She winked at me and I was no longer tired.
I felt determined.
We tiptoed to the door and saw a light at the bottom of the stairs.
I looked at Soph and she looked at me.
"You go first to see who it is and give me a signal if it's clear."
She whispered to me and I nodded.

I walked down the stairs slowly trying not to make them creek.
But I kinda failed.

I saw someone sitting on the small couch in the corner. They turned to look at me and here comes the butterflies.
"Awake are we, (y/n)?"
Oliver said to me and smiled.

I nodded and looked down at my feet.
"What are you doing awake at this hour anyways."
He asked still looking at me.

I felt the adrenaline rush through my body as I thought of an excuse. Then I saw a quill on the floor and answered him,
"Oh I just uhh forgot my quill"
I lied
But I picked it up and put it into my pocket in my sweatpants.
He nodded.
"Well what are you doing awake in the middle of the night"
I gathered up all the courage I had in my body to ask him that simple question.

"Just reading...the only time I got to do it"
He said now focusing on his book.
"But I guess I should really get some sleep"
He shut the book and set it on the table next to him.
He walked over to me and told me I should get some sleep too.
I nodded and smiled.
We walked up the stairs when I remembered Sophia was still up there.

"Umm"
I said and he turned around to face me and stopped walking up the stairs.
"What is that??"
I pointed to the ground and he looked down at the wood stair case....nothing was there.
But when he wasn't looking I gave her a signal to get inside.

She nodded and quickly but quietly got back into the dorm room.
"Uhh I don't see anything"
He said looking back up at me.
"It's probably just my sleepy eyes then..."
I said and he smiled and turned around.
He went to the left and I went to the right.

"Good night (y/n)"
He said and I said night back and we closed the separarte doors.
"What Just happened..."
Soph asked me.
"Let's just go...i can explain on the way."
A smile appeared on my face as we walked out of the dorm and down the stairs.

"So like he was down there to my luck and we talked and then I had to make up lies and excuses."
I said and she nodded.

"Aww...you guys would be so cute together. You'll see one day sister...one day"
She patted me on the back and I sighed.
"Yeah like in a million years"
We giggled and made it to the kitchen.

She sat on a chair and said
"Welp....you know what to do and I'll be here if you need me."
She was about to close her eyes when I gave her like seven commands.
She groaned and I laughed.

I measured everything so it was perfect.
Usually I wouldn't really mind if I put to little or too much of something but this is for the boy I love so it's gotta be just right.
I finished making the batter and Sophia grabbed me a cookie baking sheet thing.
Together we made the dough into perfect little balls.

They were ready to bake.
We sat there for almost an hour.
I fell asleep and so did Soph.
Then all of a sudden there was a beep that echoed through the big kitchen which startled me.

"I'm guessing they're done"
She mumbled and we got up and took out the pan from the oven.
They were perfectly round and not to soft but also not to hard.
I found a small red box perfect for them to be placed in.
I had Sophia try one and she was amazed.
"Look her sis...you've made some pretty great stuff in the past but these..these are just perfect."
She stuffed her mouth with the rest of the cookie and I giggled and thanked her.
"He'll love them...just like he loves you"
She grins and I shrugged. "I'll guess we'll see about that."
I said and we walked back to our dorm.
I put the cookies next to my bed in the little drawer cabinet thing that I had.
I said night to Soph and drifted back to sleep.
