Genie In A Bottle
Okay, from now on 'I', 'mine', 'me', and 'my' mean me, Christina. Okay. So what you just read in chapter 2 was Harry's point of view. Now, everything is my point of view. Okay.
The next day I had to stay in the hospital wing just so Madam Pomfrey could make sure I was all right. So Harry stayed with me. We talked about everything. From school to Harry's friends to what we like to our pasts. Here was one of the conversations.
"So," said Harry. "What are your parents like?"
"Oh," said I said looking down. "My parents are-."
"Are what," asked Harry.
"They're dea-."
"They're dead?"
"No," I said. "They're joined up with Vol-Vol-Voldemort and kicked me out of the house. They're Death Eaters. I've been living with my aunt for the last 10 years. Ever since I was 4."
"So you're only 14?"
"Yeah. And?"
"Nothing."
"Okay."
Harry stood up and reached into his pocket and pulled out a box. "I bought this in Diagon Ally just incase that special someone came along. She has. I knew it'd be you. I saw you in one of my dreams. I knew you were the one." He handed me the box. I took it and opened it. My eyes bugged out as I saw what was in the box.
"It's beautiful," I whispered. I took out the diamond ring and put it on my right ring finger. I looked up at Harry. He was looking at me. I smiled. "I love it Harry."
"I knew you would."
"Well, you were right. I love it." Harry stood up and kissed me. I kissed him back knowing that I had hooked him. Even though I was 2 years younger then him. I knew that his friends would be shocked, way shocked.
"Christina," Harry said looking down. "I-I-I-."
Oh yes! He's going to say it! Maybe I should say it first! I thought. "I love you," I said.
"You do?" Harry asked.
"Yes," I said. "You love me don't you? Why else would you give me a ring?"
"Yeah," said Harry. "Yeah. I love you. But I just didn't think it'd be that easy. Saying it and all."
I sat up and, ignoring the pain in my back, I kissed him. The kiss started out innocent then I depend the kiss after a while. His hand went to my back and he rubbed my back with his thumb. I loved the way that felt. I found myself trapped. Trapped under his spell. Like I wasn't able to break the kiss. I didn't want to anyway. I wanted it to make it go on forever.
I pulled my legs over to the side and we were facing each other. I put my arms around his neck and continued to kiss him. The kiss had gotten more passionate. We stopped after it had gotten a little too passionate. I was panting for breath. I looked into Harry's eyes. He caressed my cheeks. It was hard to imagine how loveable he could be to a girl. It was like he knew how to kiss me. Where to kiss me. How to caress me, where to caress me. It was like he knew my soul. The things I desired. And I was just discovering his.
I kissed his cheek and lay back down. I was suddenly very tired. Harry sat back down and held on to my hand with both of his hands. He rubbed my hand with his thumb. A song came to mind, "I feel like I've been locked up tight for century of lonely nights," I whispered in my singing voice.
"What?" said Harry. I couldn't hear him.
"Waitin� for someone to release me." I could feel Harry looking at me but I was just looking at my hand that Harry was holding. "You're licking' your lips and blowing kisses to me but that don't mean I'm gonna give it away. Baby, baby, baby." Harry was looking at me and smiling. I shut me eyes and continued singing. "Ohohohohoh. My body's saying let's go. Ohohohohoh. But my heart is saying no, no. If you want to be with me, baby there's a price to pay. I'm a genie in a bottle you gotta rub me the right way honey. I'm a genie in a bottle baby. Come. come. Come on in let me out. If you wanna me I can make your wish come true. You gotta make a big impression. I gotta like what 'cha do. Music's fading and the lights down low, just one more dance and then we're good to go. Waitin� for someone, who needs me. Hormones racin' at the speed tonight, but that don't mean it's gonna be tonight. Baby, baby, baby. Ohohohohohohoh. My body's saying let's go. Ohohohohoho. But my heart is saying no, no."
I could tell Harry had never heard this song. But I knew it by heart. "If you wanna be with me, baby there's a price to pay. I'm a genie in a bottle. You gotta rub me the right way. If you wanna be with me, I can make your wish come true. Just come in and set me free baby, and I'll be with you. I'm a genie in a bottle baby. Got to rub me the right way honey. I'm a genie in a bottle baby, come, come. Come on in let me out." Harry was starring at me continuously." "Ohohohohohohoh. If you wanna be with me, baby there's a price to pay. I'm a genie in a bottle. You got to rub me the right way. If you wanna be with me, I can make your wish come true. You gotta make a big impression. I gotta like what 'cha do."
I had fallen asleep before I had finished the song. How I noticed, I didn't. I just felt like I was no longer awake. That was a day I would never forget.
