Chapter 1:
Always late, always late! Katie Bell chanted in her head as she pushed by waving parents and younger siblings. Platform 9 ¾ seemed to get longer as Katie sprinted towards the crimson door of the Hogwarts Express with her luggage in tow. As the last whistle blew, Katie felt a hand on her shoulder. Startled, Katie shrieked and whipped around to see none other than Oliver Wood's gorgeous chocolate brown eyes inches from hers.
"Katie, bloody hell! Stop screaming and get on the train!" Oliver ordered while smirking at the fact that he made her scream.
"Oh Oliver, thank you so much!" she sighed as he grabbed her luggage and they jumped into the train just as it started to pull out of the platform.
"Don't mention it Kates." He winked as he turned and charmed Katie's luggage to put itself into the cargo hold.
After ushering Katie into the compartment where Fred Weasley, George Weasley, Alicia Spinnet, Lee Jordan and Angelina Johnson were sitting, Oliver sat next to the Weasleys and since there was no room left, he motioned for Katie to sit on his lap. Katie shook her head and sat on the wall under the window of the compartment where she fell asleep shortly after sitting down…..
Katie awoke to her pillow moving. PILLOW MOVING?! Katie jerked upright without opening her eyes. As she opened her eyes she saw her friends with concerned faces and Oliver with a hurt face. Wait, why would Oliver be hurt? She gave him a questioning look before she pieced it together… She actually fell asleep on Oliver's knee. After giving Oliver a sheepish smile she told the group that she wanted a snack so she got up to go find the food trolley. Smiling the whole way, Katie finally found the trolley and ordered 4 boxes of Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans. As she was waiting for her change she saw Fred walking up to her. As he stopped he made a face almost like he swallowed a lemon or extremely hot pepper.
"Katie. I have to tell you something." He said seriously. Katie almost laughed in his face because this twin was never serious. He was always making fun of something or someone.
"What's up?" She asked quietly.
"OLIVER WOOD LOVES YOU!" He screamed right in her face.
Three things happened at once; Katie gasped, everyone in the hallway stopped talking and stared at them and Oliver Wood turned a bright color of rhubarb in the doorway to which he had been standing at.
"Fred, you're completely mental." Katie whispered at him before walking away from him and into the compartment.
