Personality and Bio:
Isabella has always been a shy girl, not like the other girls who talk without a care, but once she gets used to you, she is more talkative.
Shy or not, she isn't afraid to give her opinions on any subject.
Her grandmother has physic abilities, but her mother did not. As Isabella got older, they, including her, thought that the ability had past onto her. Her grandmother died before she went to Hogwarts so she doesn't know too much about the abilities, now that new feelings and emotions are breaking through, she has to learn on her own and people suffer as she does.

When she’s angry or upset her eyes will glow a bright green, and most of the time she doesn’t know her eyes are glowing. Even though she is quiet, she can be quiet fiery if she is angry... and sometimes she can't control it. However, she would rather not fight unless threated badly or in a death situation.
She enjoys most of her lessons, and loves to learn new things, and has a great memory. Even though she is a nice, kind person, she can be quite mean if you push her. But who isn’t? She is a very smart girl and know things that, for her age, are above her knowledge <<I know what I mean>>, though simple things can baffle her.

Growing up she always had her head in a book, wanting to learn spells even before she had a wand. When she wasn't reading she would with her mum, helping her around the house, and sometimes took her wand to practice some spells without her knowing. Her father knew, but said nothing about it to her mother. He was proud of her, knowing she would get far in life.

Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw,
If you've a steady mind,
Where those of wit and learning,
Will always find their kind

Cedric noticed Isabella and smiled - he looked into her eyes, and blushed when he realised he hadn't said anything.
"I never noticed your eyes were olive..." He muttered.

"Oh," she blushed with a smile, looking down a little because she was blushing. She didn't know what to say, and felt stupid just standing there.

"You're so cute when you do that..." Cedric chuckled, and smiled that dazzling smile.

She smiled more as he grinned "Thank you. And I'm sure people have said how dazzling that smile of yours is?" she looked at his lips then back at his eyes

Cedric frowned.
"Not really, the way people stare makes me think I got something stuck in my teeth." Cedric chuckeled.
"But it's just my smile that's err... dazzling?"

I stole your man!

*Glares at Oliver*

"Oh, I would believe it is much more that your smile..." she smiled "Apart from your really good-looks, you seem like such a nice guy"

Cedric looks at Oliver, then at Isabella - and feels slightly worried.
Wait, no, slightly would never cower this... he thought. His heart was throbbing with pain.
Threatening to shatter any moment now.

"I'm not one of the good guys..." He muttered - to Isabella.

And you stole my daughters name!

Cedric looked really confused...

"You have a daughter?!"

( Suba )

No, I meant niece...

Yeah stop stealing my daughter's name!!! Gosh. *hugs Ollie* Don't worry Oliver.

*hugs Harry* Don't worry, I least she didn't steal Willow as well.

Cedric felt a little jealous, and his eyes darkened. <<again>>

"Not one of the good guys... Pardon?" she asked him

As her talking with the other two, she slowly backed away from them, and out of sight

Cedric noticed that Isabella had disappeared - this proved his point exactly.
Oliver seemed busy hugging Harry, so he went after her - finding her near the library.
"I'm so sorry..." He whispered.

She turned to him "Sorry for what? It's all right..."
She looked away for a second then back at him "Don't worry too much" she smiled weakly

"No really, it's not all right..." Cedric said, and ran his fingers through her hair, pulling her into a hug - and expecting her to hex him sensless for doing so.

Isabella smiled slightly when his hand ran through her hair.
She wasn't too sure why he was hugging her, or why he thought she was upset.
She wasn't all that upset.
Isabella returned the hug ... It wasn't often she talked to people, let alone a hug fro Cedric, the who girls were crazy about.
What was so special about me? she thought, yet frowned to herself when she thought that. You're always putting yourself down...

<<Ignore the fact that Stella ever made a post here... I fucked up>>

Cedric eyes widened when Isabella returned the hug, and he sighed in relief.
He pushed her away, to look into her eyes. Holding onto her shoulders.
"You're so amazing..." He smiled that dazzling smile again.
How could he not be inlove with her? And that's exactly what hurt him.

She smiled, a really normal happy smile "Thank you." and she then blushed, at his smile and then fact that she was embarrassed at the comment. Though, she did like it.
She looked down the corridor, then back at him "Cedric, is there anything bothering you?"

"It isn't safe for you to be with me..." Cedric said, and he looked hurt now.
Because he was hurting her. And he told her.
"...I'm hurting you."
Reading her expression - he guessed that it didn't make much sense - so he hugged her close again.
"I'm so selfish..." He mutterd, while he smelled her hair.




<<I'm going all Edward on you again>>

She closed her eyes when he hugged her "I'm not sure what you mean ... You're not being selfish Ced... Do what you have to do. It's all right"
She didn't want to let go of him, but she did, looking at his eyes. She could get herself lost in them. Isabella looked away "If you're happy, thats all that matters" she smiled

"It's not fair..." Cedric said, and ran his fingers through her hair again, without taking his eyes off hers.
They were so beautiful.
He sighed, he needed to let it all go - just for a little while.
Forcing a smile, he asked her what she was doing, before she ran into Oliver and Stella.

Isabella placed her hand over his, and held it for a second before letting go.
"I-I wasn't doing much. I was," she looked away and sighed "Just nothing. As usual. Went for a little walk around the grounds."
She looked back at him "What about you?"

"I just had a chat with my team, I've booked the pitch for practise tomorrow." Cedric smiled again.
"So... You want to do 'nothing' with me then? We could walk down to the lake... or any place you prefer, really."

"I'd have to come and watch you practice" she smiled "Unless of course you don't want anyone there" she raised her eyebrows as though it was a question. Maybe it was.
She smiled "The lake sounds nice. When, now?"

"You'd really want to see me coach my team?" Cedric smiled - the idea made him really happy. "Of course you can be there! It might get boring though..."
He looked at her, his smile grew even wider.
"Sure, we'll go now - unless you have to be somewhere else?"

She smiled, her smile got wider as she saw how happy he was about her to watch him coach his team. "Yes, I would like to watch you... Your team practice. Oh, I don't get bored easy, so no worries"
"Me, not really. I'd like it if we go. All I would end up doing is," she looked down at the books "Is study." she said as she looked back at him.

Cedric took her hand, and started leading her out of the castle.
"I can help you study after the walk. It's much more fun when you're two..." He said, and winked.

She smiled when he took he hand and walked out onto the castle grounds
"Yes, I would believe so" she blushed

Cedric led her down on the lake - and they sat down on a rock - with good view of the forrests and mountains.
"It's so peaceful out here..." Cedric whispered, mostly to himself.
"And the scenery has improved..." He said, chuckled and winked to Isabella.

*hugs Ollie back and winks at Ced, over his shoulder*

"And the scenery has improved..." He said, chuckled and winked to Isabella.

"I honestly haven't been here for a long time... It's beautiful, the scenery. I could sit and think here for hours." she smiled at him and looked at the lake and over at the fields and trees ahead. "Do you come here a lot? I think I should come here more often. Get me out from the castle and my dorm" she smiled and casualty hugged her knees, watching the ripples in the water

"You should come here with me then, if you like? I go here all the time." Cedric smiled at Isabella, and wondered if Oliver was mad.
...but he was hugging Harry. He definitly didn't need to see that.
He picked up a rock and threw it, watched it bounce over the water 5 times before it sunk.

Isabella watched Cedric pick up the little rock and watched it bounce on the water "I can't do that," she admitted "I'd like to come here with you" she smiled looking at the water then looked at him.
"Maybe you could teach me how to do that thing with the rock" she knew it sounded stupid, but at least she was saying something rather than nothing.

"And I'd love for you to come here with me." To get some proper company for a change. He added mentally,
his 'crowd' was ok, but way to shallow. Cedric smiled that dazzling smile.
"Seeker's secret..." He said and winked - before he picked up another rock. He threw it up in the air and caught it a couple of times, then he threw it with a little more force than he had used on the other one, watching it bounce of the water 8 times before it sunk. Cedric bit his lip and chuckled.
"It's all in the wrist." Cedric picked up two rocks, and gave one to Isabella.
"Here, you need to hold it like this." He showed her. "And the stone needs to be somewhat flat."
Isabella seemed to be holding the stone wrong, so Cedric dropped his, and wrapped his hands around her - gently moving her fingers around the rock,
so that it would work better with the throw.

"You would? I - nevermind" she smiled at him and when he did that smile she looked away and bit her lip, then looked up at the lake.
She could see that Cedric was throwing a stone, then saw that stone on the water and counted each time it bounced before it sank. She smiled and turned to him "Show off" and chuckled a little
She took the hold of the rock, "The wrist ..." she repeated to herself.
Isabella looked back and forth from the way he was holding it and then way she was. She was holding it wrong. She blushed a little when his habd was on hers, moving her fingers "Oh, I see" she said, trying not to make it too awkward.
She smiled and when she got it right, she moved her arm to get ready to throw. Isabella threw it, but only got two jumps. "Only two. Better than none" she smiled and turned to him. "If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't even get one"

Cedric started laughing.
"Well, atleast you could throw the rock at me. I swear it would bounce off..." He said, inbetween laughs.
Then he frowned, realising it was rude to laugh of her - yet, he couldn't help himself.
"Honestly though, it's not bad for starters. And you could always get one, the rock is bound to hit the water. Unless you're aiming for something else..."
Cedric smirked, and picked up another stone for her.
"Try again, with a little more force this time. I'm sure you'll get it."

Isabella laughed "I'm sure it would, but I'm afraid I'm not like that. Unless of course you want me to chuck it at you?" still smiling. She then bite her lip and looked at the little rock he handed her. "Yes, some Slytherins ..."
She breathed as she looked at the water, got her stone ready and threw it... It did the same thing. "Oh..." she looked at Cedric and smiled "I guess the more I do it, the better." she then shrugged. It wasn't all that important, but being with him is what she liked, even if it were throwing rocks.
Isabella then remember that Cedric had said to use more force... She was too busy listening to his voice to take in what he was saying.
She looked around and picked up another rock. She did the same thing, getting ready as if it were a sport, and then with more force, she threw it.
One - Two - Three... Plunk
"Well, one more than two" she smiled. "Though, Seeker's secret" she winked

Cedric shrugged and laughed.
"For all I know, one day you might want to throw rocks at me..."

He smiled as the rock bounced three times off the water before it sunk.
"See, getting better allready! And well, seekers secret.... I guess it isn't any longer though, I just shared it with you..." He said, and winked.
He ran his fingers through the grass, it tickled against his palms. Then he picked up a blue flowers and smelled it.
"Hmm... this smells good." He said, and handed it to Isabella. "Forgetmenots, right?"

"Throw rocks at you?" she giggled in amusement "Oh, I'm not like that..." she tilted her head a little to the side and her eyes looked at the water "Unless you really," her eyes turned back to him and smiled "and I mean really anger me"
Isabella shrugged "So you're safe from me" she smiled

Isabella looked down at the blue flowers, and saw Cedric pick one.
She smiled with a nod "Forgetmenots," and smelt the flower "they do have a beautiful scent to them". She looked at the flower as she held it, the two fingers of her other hand feeling the stem.
A breeze blew past, making her hair blow against her face. She swiped her hair away and held it, to then turn her head in the direction of the wind. "One reason why I tie up my hair" she said as tucked a piece behind her ear when the wind died down.
Even though it was quite quiet, she enjoyed sitting her with him. It was mainly her fault it was so quiet as she didn't know what to say. She thought of Quidditch, since he was a player of the sport. "How long have you been playing Quidditch? And did you always want to be a Seeker?"
The wind returned, but she held it back over her shoulder.

"You don't think I can anger you?" Cedric smirked, thinking that he would never try to anger her,
but for all he knew, things might happen.
Cedric lay down in the grass - sighing. The flowers did indeed smell good, and so did the grass - and the wind.
This was nice. He didn't mind Isabella going silent, the silences between them were comfortable.
He didn't feel like he needed to speak, or something forced him too. He looked up at the skies, puffy white clouds drifting across it.
Cedric looked at Isabella when she asked the question about Quidditch, and then turned to the skies again.
"I've played Quidditch since I could walk - my dad got me one of them child brooms that hover a feet above the ground." He chuckled when he remembered how worried his mother had been when his dad bought him his first real broom.
"And seeker? Nah... I don't know, I guess I could play any position, my father trained me for everything, you know? But I like being a seeker. I tried out for all of them when I got here. I was close to becoming a chaser... but I'm glad I didn't. Seekers have more freedom. Don't have to worry that much about the game. Of course, I have to, seeing as I'm Captain. There's a lot more to worry about..."
Cedric figured he could go on and on about this forever, but he stopped himself - as one of the clouds was taking the shape of a heart - one of the sides being bigger than the other.
"I'm not gonna bore you with this though... Oh, and look." Cedric pointed at the skies and the heartshaped cloud.
Then he sat up, and took off his cloak, laying it on the grass behind Isabella.
"Have you ever been looking for shapes in the clouds? It's fun, I promise." He said and motioned for Isabella to lay down on his cloak.

"Well maybe," she returned a smirk "you never know what could happen after all" she looked at the water again. There was something about the water that made her look back and watch the ripples. Of course, seeing the squid wouldn't make her all too happy; she feared deep water, especially when you couldn't see the bottom, or anything at all.
Isabella moved her knees up and rapped her arms around them, looking back up at the birds in the trees. She smiled - it made her think back when she was younger, out with her parents when her father didn't have so much work to do. Isabella then sighed thinking about her father now, and how much she didn't get to see him.
She turned to Cedric when spoke, "Yes, I remember them. I had one myself," her eyes looked away as she went back to her thoughts "I begged, and begged my mother for one. She was like your mother I guess; worried," she turned back to look at Cedric "But I did well, with relief to her. Of course I feel off numerous times, but I don't think I'm good enough to play Quidditch" she smiled. "I'd rather watch it. But I do see what you mean about being a Seeker, and being the Captain..."
Her eyes kept on him as he looked up at the sky. She smiled to herself, unable to keep it away, and then too looked up at the sky. "Oh, you doesn't bore me at all," in fact I enjoy listening to you...
She looked at the heart shaped cloud Cedric pointed out. "I was more of the star watcher, than the cloud watcher" she smiled, her eyes looked over at Cedric, then back at the cloud. "Though, making little picture out of them can be quite fun." she confessed as she lied back on his cloak, blushing a little.
A wind blew, making her hair fly over her face. She sat up a little, twirled her hair into some kind of pony-tail and laid her head down on it, as she lied back on his cloak. "What about that one -" she pointed up at a cloud. "If you look at it this way, it looks like some kind of wizard sitting down. But this way," she moved her head to the side "it looks like bendy steam train... If you know what I mean." she smiled, her eyes looked over at his direction, knowing how stupid she sounded and hoped he didn't think it.

Cedric smiled, happy that he didn't bore her.
One of the things he really liked about her was that she listened. Not like the people that usually surronded him,
that only cared about gossip. He wrinkled his nose, wondering why he was being around them. Well - he hadn't spent a lot of time around them ever since he met Isabella. Except for during and inbetween classes, meals and such.
"I like watching both stars and clouds. Just lying in the grass somewhere looking at the skies, really. Even if it rains - it's quite enjoyable. Snow is good too."
Cedric wondered when the last time he was out in the rain, he missed that - and it seemed like it hadn't rained forever.
Isabella pointed at a cloud, and Cedrics shoulder rubbed against Isabellas as he moved closer to her to see which one she was pointing at.
It seemed like that touch alone stirred up a bunch of butterflies inside his stomach. "Oliver..." He thought - and bit his lip.
He narrowed his eyes and tilted his head to the side.
"Bendy steam train? I'm thinking angry basilisk." Cedric wrinkeled his nose and chuckeled.
"Oh, that one!" Cedric pointed. "Butterflies and a badger..."
"I didn't know you flew..." Cedric said - thinking about what Isabella said earlier about the brooms.
"Perhaps we should go for a broom ride sometime?"


<<Wow, this made me wonder, do you feel that way about deep water?>>
<<And wow, Cedric is like, really onto exploring the world with Bella now! O_o>>

"I like the rain," she said in response "it doesn't bother me at all. I find it very relaxing myself. And the snow," she thought for a few seconds "I think it's pretty and all, but being out in in, I'd rather not. It's too cold for me."
When Cedric's shoulder hit hers, she couldn't hold back a little smile. Of course it meant nothing, his shoulder on hers, he was with Oliver after all, but she couldn't help liking this boy either.
She could be herself around him - no fears, no intimidation - it was just so comfortable. He also listened to her, which she liked, unlike most people who seemed to have got bored of her.
Isabelle giggled at the butterflies and badger. She pointed out another one "A turtle - oh," it was changing "An angry turtle. I don't like that turtle" a smile widened across her face. she bit her lip she keep her grin away.
"But if you keep doing this," she turned her head, and moved herself a little more to the side to turn her head more. She then giggled "you gradually look like an idiot on the floor, instead of keeping that turtle happy"
Isabella put her hands on the grass and moved herself back as she was. "I haven't being flying in a while," she said and turned her head to him "but I'd love to go" she smiled. His eyes were bright and happy like. She hoped he was happy, and not assuming.

”Well, I must remember not to try and start snow fights with you then when the winter sets… Oh well, it means Oliver will get a harder time.” Cedric said, and chuckled. Remembering that snow fight a couple of years back, when he first figured he was gay, how badly he wanted it was Oliver that had attacked him. Cedrics chuckle turned into laughing when Isabella pointed out the turtle that changed into an angry turtle.
“Don’t worry, I won’t let angry turtles hurt you.” He said, and ran his fingers through his hair.
She turned to face him, and he turned to face her too. For a split second he felt lost in her eyes – really loving the dark olive colour. He wanted to tell her again, but thought it wouldn’t be appropriate. That was hard, around Isabella. Making sure he didn’t flirt. Or, some flirting was alright, but not the kind that could end up breaking their hearts. After all – Oliver was his man, he loved him just a tad more – and the love was different; it was more passionate with him. With Isabella the excitement was safe and good. He wanted it to stay that way, he didn’t want to ruin a perfectly good friendship either. Cedric beat himself mentally for thinking about Isabella in a relationship way, knowing it was selfish.

”If you don’t want to fly alone we could always use my broom, or I could give you lesions.” Cedric said and smiled before he turned back to the clouds. Taking Isabella for a broom ride seemed like a great idea to him – he’d be able to show her what took up a major part of his time.
“Look at that one…” Cedric said, and pointed at a couple of clouds that were melting together. “It looks like two people kissing…” It looks like me kissing you… Cedric added mentally, his eyes widened and he blushed. Then the cloud turned into Oliver, he looked angry, and Cedric felt way guilty about being out there with Isabella - and not his boyfriend.

"Well, I must remember not to try and start snow fights with you then when the winter sets…" he said to her. She kept her eyes on the clouds, watching how they moved and how fast some seemed to drift away from the two of them, changing into different shapes.
Isabella smiled when Cedric mentioned about Oliver and the snowball fight. "I'd like to watch that," her eyes glanced to the side, and back to the clouds. "I don't mean as in because its Oliver, and he hates me and probably thinks I hate him, but I don't ..." she sighed "Never mind. I can't quite explain what I mean and -" she stopped "I'm rambling" she closed her eyes tight for a second, mentally kicking herself.
When Cedric said about not letting angry turtles hurt her, she smiled and then thought about giant angry turtles that could breath fire and had spikes on its shell. She shivered and shook her head at the thought, hoping that would not happen. Though, Cedric would save her. She gave a silent smirk and wondered what Cedric would do in that situation.
Isabella saw from the corner of her eye that he was looking at her. She turned her head to the side, looking at him. She gave a smile sweet smile, examining his eyes. Isabella really did like eyes, she could tell a lot from peoples eyes. Cedric's eyes were soft. She felt herself getting lost in them, as if they were the only two people. It felt right - but it wasn't.
Isabella looked away - she had to. They had a great friendship and she was too afraid it would get ruined by anyway. She loved spending time with him and it made her happy.
Isabella couldn't think of any other happiness she had felt in this way whilst at Hogwarts. The things she would be happy mostly was her work and exams.

He spoke again. She continued to look at the clouds and her eyes followed a little sparrow bird as it flew over them.
"I'd like that," she smiled, thinking of the both of them flying together - holding onto him. And because he was a quidditch player, he'd probably show her a different way to fly then she usual would. Or even a different view by flying higher into the sky.
Isabella returned back from her thoughts and looked at the cloud he had pointed out. "Oh, I see that," she smiled and got a sudden feeling of a thought he was thinking. She ignored it, thinking it was her wishing, but at the same time not.
She was starting to feel so relaxed, the light breeze on her face and the quiet movement from the water, she could fall asleep and not worry about a thing.
Cedric was her with her, and she suddenly felt bad for Oliver and feeling a little selfish as if she were trying to take him away. I know Oliver may think that, but it's not true, she told herself.
