Under One Roof
A story about Oliver Wood and Katie Bell.
I don't own Harry Potter or any of the characters.
"Ah, yes my son, Patrick,he attended there last year, and he said quite enjoyed himself and we all know what an animal he can be"
Amanda laughed slightly at the comment that her friend had just made.
"Well, you know these young people, always off doing something of the sort"
She paused for a long sip of tea.
"You have a daughter don't you Mrs.Bell?"
"Yes, Katherine...why do you ask?"
"Well, it's just that I was wondering where she was"
"Go Katie go!"
Crowds around her watched (mostly in shock) as the young girl drained her elventh glass of Butterbeer.
"Hey Andrew two more" she hollered to the bartender.
"Katie don't you think that you've had enough..."
"Shhhh" she pressed a finger (not a very polite one at that) to her friend's lips.
"Justs ones more Alicia" she whispered.
"Katie come on time to go home" Alicia grabbed onto the girl's hand trying to drag her way from the bar.
"No..not yet"
"Yes Katherine"
"No...let me go"
"Oh come on Katherine, your mother's gonna kill you"
"No" she contined to protest grabbing onto a young man's arm for support.
"Fine" Alicia sighed in defeat.
"You stay..but I'm leaving...I've got classes tomorrow" Alicia grabbed her coat and apparated away.
"Bye" Katie waved to the spot where Alicia had one stood. Then she turned to the man at the bar.
"Hi" she began.
"My name's Katie Bell"
"So is Katherine in college yet?"
"Ah no" Mrs.Bell frowned slightly. "She's just left Hogwarts last month and hasn't yet decided what she'd like to persue."
"Oh god" Katie moaned.
Her back was pressed against the wall, her arms wrapped around the man's neck, her legs around his waist. Kissing him deeply.
This wasn't a new thing for Katie Bell, she was used to sleeping with men she'd just met or barely knew. To her it was just part of the lifestyle.
Katie ran her hands through the man's hair while her tried to take off her top, never once stopping the kiss.
The two of them then made thier way over to his bed where he then threw her down and started to undo his belt, while she worked on her bra.
Yes, just part of the lifestyle.
"It's been a pleasure having you over Mrs.Bell"
"Well thank you for having me"
"Anytime, next time bring Katherine over, I'm sure her and Patrick will do fine together"
"I'm sure" the other woman answered.
"So will you be using floo?"
"Of course not dear, might get my clothes dirty"
"Ahh, I see"
"Well good night then"
"Good night"
The blonde haired witch stepped down from the doors of the estate onto the lawn where she promptly vanished in a puff of purple smoke.
"Isn't Katherine home yet?"
The servants shuddered. Her tone of voice made it very clear that she wasn't too pleased.
"How could you let a nineteen year old child out on her own!"
"Well" piped a plump maid named Susan "She wasn't on her own, her friend Alicia was with her"
"Alicia" Mrs.Bell paused. "Ah yes, she must be over at Alicia's for the night and forgotten to owl"
"Very good Sally"
"It's Susan miss"
"Yes"
"Oh god" Katie groaned.
It was all so bright. So many lights.
Katie groaned again as she opened her eyes.
Sighing she rolled over onto her side.
"Shit"
That was the only word she could find to describe the scene before her.
A man.
She was in his bed.
Katie peeked under the covers.
She was naked in his bed.
"Crap crap crap"
What had she done?
Why didn't she remember?
Was she drunk?
Was she drunk again?
Katie's head throbbed again at the thought.
But then another much worse though entered her mind.
Mother.
"She isn't home yet?"
Alicia's head spoke from the fireplace.
"No..isn't she at your house"
"Well...actually she just left"
"She did?"
"Yes...maybe she went shopping or something...you know how Katherine is"
Katie heaved again into the toilet bowl. Looking at disgust at the reminants of last night's dinner.
She sighed and propped her head against the wall of the bathroom.
"Hi"
Katie looked up at the figure in the doorway.
"Oh..hi"
"I brought you something...to help"
He handed her a bubbling green liquid in an orange container.
Katie glanced at it cautiously.
"It'll help" he told her in what would be a reassuring tone if circumstances had been...different.
"Thanks" Katie muttered and placed the concauction next to her. She didn't touch it.
"So.."
"Yeah"
"Yeah"
"My name's Oliver..by the way...Oliver Wood"
"I know that you're worried Mrs.Bell, but we can't have our entire squad searching for you daughter"
"Well I'm not suggesting the entire squadron captain, just maybe a few"
"I'm sorry Madam but we just don't have that number to spare"
"Yes, well I'll remember that next time I'm asked to sponser your unit"
"Oliver?"
"Yes"
"Oliver Wood?"
He threw her a very puzzled glance.
"You know me?"
"Yeah...Oliver it's me..Kather...Katie, Katie Bell"
"Katie?"
"Yeah"
"Katie from Quidditch?"
She nodded.
"Wow you've...grown"
He grinned down at her.
She smiled.
"Did you expect me stay fifteen forever Wood?"
"Still as sarcastic as ever I see"
She smiled at him.
"Good to see you too Wood"
"Roger-how can you sit there and not care about the well being of our daughter?"
"But I do care-it's just that Katherine has been out late before"
"Oh dear God Roger,it's ten in the morning"
"Well maybe you have a point"
"So then after I graduated from Hogwarts I got drafted by Puddlemere"
"Must have been good for you"
"At the time.."
"What happened?"
"Team broke up..went bankrupt.."
"Oh.."
"Yeah so now I'm going back to school, studying more about Muggles"
"I start school again next week"
"Maybe I'll be in some of your classes"
"Maybe..."
"Listen Katie..about last night"
"Don't worry about it Wood happens all the time"
"Samantha!"
"Yes mother" the raven haired girl answered.
"Where's your sister?"
"Probably screwing around with a doctor somewhere"
"Where'd you learn that language?"
Her mother sounded appaled
"Katherine" she replied simply.
"Isn't your roomate going to be home soon?"
"No roomate" he replied.
"Really?"
He nodded to her.
"Pretty big place to be living here all by yourself"
"I'm looking for one..you know need company"
He got up and started to walk around the kitchen preparing to make himself some coffee.
"Crap"
"What..oh you want some?"
"No..uh Oliver what time is it?"
"Five-Roger-Five"
"Yes dear I'm fully aware of the time"
Sie you've been repeating it o me for the past six hours.
"Where the hell is your daughther?"
"Don't you pin this one on me.."
"Hi Mother, Father..."
"Katherine.."
Mrs.Bell got up from her seat and ran to embrace her daughter.
"Have you any idea how terrified I was...where have you been..couldn't you have owled?"
"Sorry mother...Alicia and I went to a party.."
"Party...I thought she said that you two were at her house"
"We...we were...a slumber party that's what I meant"
"Oh..I see"
"Then I left and ran into Oliver Wood"
"Who..that Quidditch boy..?"
"Yeah..and we talked for a while..I just forgot the time..that's all"
"Oh well...Katie just don't scare me like that again..go upstairs and get cleaned up for dinner"
"Ok Mother"
Katie turned and ran up the stair well to her room.
"Hey mother"
"Yes Samantha"
"Did you notice that Katherine wasn't wearing her bra?"
