My Chosen One

The Golden Necklace

it was a Friday afternoon . Hermione, Ginny and Y/n were sitting at the gryffindor common room.

"so Y/n, you nervous about the game tomorrow?" asked Hermione.

" nervous? i've been waiting since the beginning of summer to get back on the pitch Hermione," Y/n responded laughing.

"yea slytherin won't stand a chance with me and Y/n as chasers," Ginny said also laughing.

Y/n and Ginny gave each other a fist bump.

"oh it's time for Defense against the Dark Arts," Hermione said as she packed her books.

"oh right, see you later Ginny!"

you both head out of the common room and head to DADA.

"You know Y/n your father really is the best DADA professor we've had. it doesn't surprise me that you want to be an Auror like your mother."

"yea, i know it'll be dangerous but i'll take my chances," Y/n responded laughing.

you two sat at your desks and waited for Professor Lupin to arrive. Someone opened the door hard and walked through the class shutting all the windows.

"turn to page 394."

it was Severus Snape. it was unusual that he had been in that classroom, for he only teaches Potions. Y/n knew why her father wasn't there.

everyone turned their books and were surprised why they would be learning about werewolves so early in the school year.

"now can anyone tell me what's the difference between an animagus and a werewolf?" said Professor Snape.

Immediately Hermione's hand shot up. Snape ignored her and continued speaking," a animagus is a person who elects to turn into any animal they want to. a werewolf, has absolutely no choice. in each full moon, they turn into a werewolf against their will. by the end of tomorrow, you will have an essay due."

everyone let out a sigh. essays were their least favorite thing to do.

"but sir it's quidditch tomorrow!" said Harry.

"that is absolutely no excuse to miss this. you will turn your essay in by tomorrow night."

the rest of the class was just reading. when the bell rang Y/n headed out with Harry, Ron and Hermione. Hermione stayed at the gryffindor common room to begin her essay, Ron stayed with seamus and dean who where playing cards. Y/n and Harry headed up to Harry's dorm. they both sat on the edge of Harry's bed facing each other.

"can you believe Snape? an essay due tomorrow when we have quidditch?" Y/n said as she sat down.

"i know and a whole roll of parchment? we both know i'm not gonna finish that," Harry said laughing.

"oh yea i know that for sure," Y/n replied laughing. " hey i'm sorry i couldn't get you anything for your birthday Harry, mum and dad spent a lot on that trip to Hawaii."

"oh no don't worry it's fine really."

"okay."

there was an silent moment and the two couldn't help but laugh at how awkward it was.

"well then i'm going to head to my dorm now," Y/n said as she stood up. she walked over to Harry smiling and ruffled his hair and said," goodnight loser."

"goodnight," Harry said as Y/n began to walk out. Harry wanted to say something else but the only thing that came out of his mouth was," sweet dreams."

Y/n laughed and said," you too potter."

Harry laid on his bed smiling.

Y/n closed the door, and stood there leaning on the wall smiling. she saw Hermione still working on her essay so she went down to say goodnight. she sat down in the chair in front of Hermione.

"what's up with you? why are you smiling so much?" Hermione asked.

"what i can't smile now?" Y/n replied still smiling.

"no you can. you've been hanging out with Harry a lot now," Hermione said smirking at Y/n.

"well yea he's my best friend."

"best friends huh? i think you want a little more than that."

"me? i want- what makes you think that?"

Hermione looked at Y/n. she had those 'come on it's obvious' look on her face.

"is it really that obvious?" Y/n said getting nervous now. "oh god you don't think Harry knows right?"

"Y/n it's obvious he fancies you too," Hermione now laughing at how surprised  Y/n is.

"Harry fancies me?"

"yes Y/n! you should really talk to him. i'm not gonna lie you two would be a nice couple."

"okay. i'll think about it," Y/n said as she stood up. she began walking towards her dorm.

"think about it!" Hermione yelled.

"i will! goodnight!"

"night!"

Y/n walked through the girls dormitories door and stopped when she saw Harry standing near the door of her room.

"Harry? what are you doing here?"

Harry jumped and turned around. "oh me? i was just erm."

"don't try making excuses with me potter," Y/n said as she walked toward him.

Harry simply laughed because he knew Y/n would know if he was hiding something. Y/n was now standing by Harry. both were smiling at each other.

"well then, goodnight for real this time," Y/n said still smiling. she leaned in and gave Harry a kiss on the cheek.

she went into her dorm leaving Harry with his hand on his cheek where Y/n kissed him. Harry wanted to tell her how he felt at that moment but as he went to knock on Y/n's door he got nervous and walked to his dorm blushing.

Y/n walked towards her bed and saw a red box sitting at her nightstand with a letter besides it. she opened the letter and read...

Hey Y/n, i was walking by diagonally the other day and found this. i was gonna give it to you for Christmas but i couldn't wait. i hope you like it
-Harry

Y/n opened the box and inside was a gold necklace and a gold ring with a red gemstone hanging on it. on the side of the ring was Y/n's name engraved. she couldn't believe Harry got her this just for her. she admired it for a while and eventually put it neatly in her drawer, climbed to bed and fell asleep.
