"Ophelia wake up!" Hermione insisted, tossing Ophelias clothing at her.
Ophelia groaned and glanced up at Hermione. She was already dressed and ready to go out the door.
"What's the matter?" Ophelia asked, rolling out of bed. She realized Harry's jacket was laying on her bed so she quickly threw her blankets over it so that Hermione couldn't see.
"They moved the date of the first task ahead." Hermione explained. "Some sort of complications with-"
"The dragons." Ophelia finished Hermiones sentence.
"There's dragons?" Hermione asked in disbelief. "That's dangerous! Harry won't be able to fight a dragon."
Ophelia shrugged and slipped on leggings. She pulled her shirt off quickly without thinking as she searched for her sweatshirt.
"OPHELIA TOPAZ GRANGER." Hermione shouted, rushing over to Ophelia.
"Hermione I'm in my bra what is the matter!" Ophelia scoffed, picking up her black sweatshirt. She then realized what Hermione was looked at.
"Who gave you those?" Hermione questioned, examining the hickeys Harry left on her neck and collarbone.
Ophelia pushed Hermione back lightly and pulled her sweatshirt over her head. She quickly brushed out her hair and put a beanie on over it.
"That's none of your business." Ophelia snarled, applying mascara to her curled eyelashes. "I can snog who I want Hermione."
"So you were meeting a guy in hogsmeade last night then?" Hermione continued to question. "Who is he? He better not have knocked you up!"
"Enough!" Ophelia snapped. "I'm not 7 and I'm not a whore Hermione. I can do what I want."
Ophelia walked out of the dorm, slamming the door in Hermione's face. She wiped her eyes quickly as she rushed through the hallways. She ran down the common room stairs, staring at the ground as she went. Just before the exit of the common room door, she bumped into somebody.

"Watch where you're going Ophelia." Ron scoffed. She glanced up at him and chuckled awkwardly.
"Sorry I'm in a rush. Have you seen-" Ophelia began, but Ron interrupted.
"Who the bloody hell punched your jawline. It's bruised there." Ron asked, clearly oblivious.
"It's called a love bite Ronald." Hermione scoffed, rushing down the common room stairs. "And she won't tell me who gave it to her!"
Ron stared at Ophelia in disbelief. Ophelia was completely pissed off at Hermione at this point and the only person she wanted to see was nowhere to be found.
"Harry is going to be so jealous." Ron grinned, examining the hickey.
"Was he in his dorm last night?" Hermione questioned. "Was Harry in his dorm last night Ron?"
Ron thought hard for a moment. He was never very observant.
"Yeah he was actually." Ron said. Ophelia was shocked. It was genuinely concerning how a few hickeys could cause her so much trouble.
"Yeah why wouldn't I be in my dorm last night?" Harry asked, walking into the common room.
Ophelia felt genuinely relieved as Harry walked over and stood next to her. He seemed to catch on that Hermione and Ron saw the hickey when they both burst into explanations. He quickly pretended to be upset when he saw the hickey on Ophelias neck.
"Maybe Ophelia doesn't want to tell you who she fancies." Harry sighed. "Though they did a pretty good job on her."
Hermione slapped the back of Harry's head with her papers, completely annoyed by his comment.
"Can we go to the first task now?" Ophelia asked, already rushing out the common room door.
Harry quickly followed behind her and caught up to her before the others so that he could say one thing without them hearing.

"Sorry about that Ophelia." Harry whispered. "I should've placed them better."
Ophelia grinned and looked up at Harry.
"I have no regrets." Ophelia whispered.
Both Ron and Hermione came rushing behind them quickly so that they were walking in a line of 4 horizontally through the hallway.
"Are you nervous?" Hermione asked, glancing past Ron and at Harry.
"A little." Harry replied truthfully. "But it has to be done."
"That's the spirit mate." Ron encouraged, patting Harry's back. It was good that they made up so quickly.
As they all walked up to the pitch, each grew more stressed. Harry hugged each of his friends goodbye and walked off to the champions tent.
Ophelia kissed Harry's neck lightly as she hugged him so that it wasn't visible.
"Be safe lover boy." She whispered.
Ophelia ran off after Ron and Hermione. She was nervous, but knew that Harry would pull through. He was great after all.

"Harry you did it!" Hermione and Ophelia cheered in unison.
Ophelia dashed at Harry, hugging him tightly. He hugged her back despite his wrapped arm. The dragon seemed to do a deal of damage.
Flash
Ophelia and Harry glanced to their side to see Rita standing with her camera crew. They had gotten a picture of Ophelia and Harry hugging and were clearly going to make huge publicity out of it even if they were just friends.
"Brilliant!" Rita grinned, going to turn and walk away.
Harry glanced down at Ophelia, unsure of what to say. He stood awkwardly as Ophelia gave him a devilish look. What was she thinking?
"May I?" She whispered. She was done keeping them a secret, it had been a month now. Quite long enough.
Harry nodded. The second he did, Ophelia gripped his shirt and crashed her lips into his.
Flash
Ophelia grinned as she kissed Harry passionately right in front of the camera. She flipped Rita and the cameramen off without breaking her kiss with Harry. Both Harry and Ophelia knew Ron and Hermione were watching in shock.
Flash
"Okay you can leave now!" Hermione shouted, shooing off Rita and her team.
Ophelia slowly parted her lips from Harry's. She glanced over her shoulder to see Ron grinning at Harry, clearly proud, and Hermione both Happy and upset.
"You did it Harry." Ron grinned, glancing to Ophelia. "Took you long enough."
Harry chuckled as he wrapped his healthy arm around Ophelia. She rested her head on his shoulder and smiled with relief. They no longer had to keep it a secret.
"So the love bites are from you?" Hermione asked, glancing to Harry.
Harry blushed and nodded quickly, avoiding eye contact with Hermione.
"Well I'm happy it's you." Hermione smiled, walking over and hugging her sister. "Treat her right though, heart of gold this one."
"More like steel." Ron mumbled under his breath just loud enough for everybody to hear.
They all laughed for a moment until Cedric Diggory walked over.
"Congratulations you two." Cedric chuckled. "She talks about you a lot Potter."
Ophelia blushed as Harry laughed.
"Good to know." Harry grinned. "Thanks Cedric."
Cedric nodded cheerfully before he smiled at Ophelia and walked away. Just having Cedric as her bestfriend made her very cheerful, and even more so that she had Harry as her boyfriend.

Ph. D. In Sorcery
Follow Anastasia, the unlucky physicist turned wizard, as her reality gets turned upside down and she is plunged into a world of gods, magic, swords, and adventure. Short and sweet description, anything more would be a spoiler and I detest those. Now, what you can expect from reading: This is my first time writing, or better said allowing someone else to read that mess so don’t raise your expectations too much. Still, I will try to keep the story flowing, while also devoting as much time as I can to editing. In my opinion, the story is written at a faster pace than normal with time skips here and there. I will do my best to not allow the faster pace to ruin the story by using those time skips to raise the skill of the main character. I am mainly looking for feedback while I test myself in new and unexplored waters. I did put a lot of thought into worldbuilding and the magic system, it is something that has been mulling inside my head for years before I sat down to write anything down. First and foremost I am an engineer and not a writer. I will try to do my utmost to make the world logical and consistent, but sometimes I might not express that in a way that’s clearly understood. I have a rough outline with several possible endings, but the story will change and evolve as I do. But in case I have to stop for whatever reason, the story will get an ending. It will be done even if I have to send coded messages from a bunker. I am a big fan of the Dresden Files so you can be certain that everything mentioned will in most cases be used, with a few red herrings sprinkled in the mix. But that also means I will enjoy putting the main character through the meat grinder while I eat popcorn and laugh from my evil lair. Physics, and to be more precise electromagnetism, quantum field theory, general and special relativity are very interesting topics for me that I research in my spare time. That means that the premise of the story will be using that research to bring logic to magic. Stupid I know, magic is magic, but to me, there is no reason why there shouldn’t be a concrete set of rules there. But it is still magic and that allows me to play with some things that shouldn’t normally be possible. I will focus on evolving the main character and having her react as anyone normal would, from my perspective. There will be scenes of battle, gore, and sexy times, but I will not go into too many details, counting on your imagination to fill the gaps. There will be plenty of combat, even battles ranging from a few dozen, a hundred, and thousands of participants. I could go on but there isn’t much to say that would convince anyone to read, either you thought the title was cool or you liked the poster. Or not, but after several days in photoshop, that’s the best I could do. And the title was originally Sorceress with a Ph.D. The new one makes a little less sense but I like the ring of it more for some reason. I just hope someone enjoys what I write as much as I do. In the end that is the reason, I am doing this, because I enjoy putting my thoughts on paper and seeing the outcome. Credit for the art: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/e0o8nw
