Chapter 3
~So not Devin~
It was strange how much a dram affects you. The kiss in the dream seemed so real and loyal. I just have to get to know Devin better. I told Angelina and Alicia about the dream I had last night the following morning.
"It was the bestest dream I have ever had .. well aside from the one I had of me beating Wood at a game of Quiditch."
"Ohh, wow!" Angelina said after I told her my dream. Alicia however looked suspicious.
"Who did you say it was again?" she asked.
"Devin."
"Have you ever been out with him?" She let me think about it before she continued. " Have you ever held his hand? How are you so sure its him?"
Alicia was right ... how did I know it was him?
"You have to ask him out."
"What?" I didn't expect this.
"You'll never know untill you kiss and hold his hand yourself." Alicia is way to smart. Why didn't I think of this?
"I'll ask but kiss?"
"YOU HAVE TO KAY!" Angelina said shouted happily."It'll be so fun."
Angelina's idea of fun doesn't sound so fun.
"And you'll finnaly find out if he's your dream guy is or not Devin."
What if Alicia was right? Whta if it isn't Devin, who else could it be?
"Fine I'll do it."
++++++++++
Angelina told me that it was now or never. I'd reather take never but she dared me too.
I walked up to him and started a conversation just to get things going. After a few minutes I asked him and he said,
"Sure why not."
And that was it. My big date for the weekend. I would be trilled and happy about it if Oliver hadn't gotten so mad.
It turned out that he had booked the Quidditch feild for an all day practice on Saturday.
"Come on Wood!" Alicia argues. "Its really important."
"Quidditch is important too." He argued back. "And besides I don't see the importance of it."
"Well it is important ... " I told him "Its really important to me. Please Wood?"
He thought about it for a minute before answereing."Fine." He mumbled.
"OMIGOSH!" I said happily. "Thanks!" I hugged him as tight as I could.
My stomach made this flippy thing. The date with Devin is making me way to happy.
++++++++++
Oliver didn't seem to happy with the whole date thing at all. So I figured that I'd spend the evening talking about Quidditch to him.
But then again plans don't always go as planned. I made Oliver sit on the couch and talk about Quidditch for three hours.
"And then BAM!" He made his hands collied, "Thats how the great Coco Maskuitskie died. A shame really, he was great ... did i tell you about the time I did this triple axle loopdeloop? Well it was like this ..."
As fascinating this all was, it wasn't. I just nodded and miled and laughed occasionaly.
"Then Harry goes, STOP! THATS NOT MY ..."
Getting sleepy ...
"So then I fall and break my leg ..."
I flew up on my broom, up to the stars. This broom was a special broom because he was on it. I was wearing and extra large jacket wich meant it was his's.
"Its really preety isn't it?" (HE SPOKE!)
"What is?" I asked oh so boldy.
"You."
Woaw he's not only cute but modest too.
"Kay!" Oliver pulled my arm.
"Wood ... ?" I suddently realised something. "Your voice ... "
"My voice? What about it?"
"No ... its just," I guess the last voice I heared before going to bed was Oliver's, thats why I dreamed about it. "that had a dream about you voice."
"Really? Tell me all about it." He said sounding amused.
"Well, we were on our broom see, staring at the stars. Oh did I mention I was wearing your jacket? Well I was,"
Oliver stared at me like I was crazy.
"Just um- put your arm around me cuz you don't have a Jacket." I said continuing. I placed his arm around my shoulder. "Okay where was I? Oh yeah well you were saying something about how prety the stars ... I mean I was."
"I was?"
"Yeah. But I guess I heard you saying it because you were talking or something." I laughed at the though of Oliver being my dream guy. That would be impossible of course because were friends. "But wouldn't it be funny if you were the guy though?"
"Yeahh.." He said staring at me in this very particular way.
We then both stood up and bumped our heads.
"Ow, sorry." I said. "Well I guess I should go to bed now. So your cool about the whole date thing right?"
"yeah."
"Cool. Night Wood. See you tommorow."
If I was gong out with Devin tommorow I'd better get some sleep.
++++++++++
"You have to!" Angelina said
"You must!" Alicia said.
"Kiss him!" They chorused.
"Yeah yeah" I assured them. The truth was I really didn't want to kiss him. I just wanted to know if he was my dream guy or not. But if kissing is the wasy to know, then so be it.
"Did I tell you about my dream last night?" I began telling them about my dream as we walked doesn the Quidditch field were i'd meet Devin. "And the weired thing was that his voice sounded like Wood's but thats because Wood was talking when I fell asleep."
"I guess that makes sense ... " Alicia said.
Of course it did.
Oliver had begun to practice by himself on the field. He flew down when I came out. His hair was all messes up from the wind just the way I loved it.
"Katie look," She pointed behind me.
Devin came running torwards me. "Ka-t-ie, ready?" he panted.
"Yeah." I gave Oliver one last glance before heading off the field with Devin.
"I was thinking of what to do and well ... " He blushed a big. "And well I thoguh that maybe we'd learn to dance."
DANCE? I have no idea how to dance! "ER.. sorry to burst your bubble, but I hav no idea how to dance."
"Thats why were learining. Don't worry, I know how to dance. I'll just teach you."
We stood on top of the quiddtich stadium. The G.Q.T were practicing beneath us throwing golf balls to on another. I recieved the occasional glance from then as Devn began to teach me how to do the waltz.
At first i wondered why he wanted to learn how to dance of all things. ANg what kind of guy dances? Devin never strucked me as the kind of guy who danced ... there had to be a reason behind all this.
Music began to play out of nowhere and Devin took the lead.
"The steps are easy. Just go like this." He demonstrated a dance move with his feet wich I did not follow. "The secret is saying, one two three, one two three ... you try."
Try? As if. I'll probablyy trip and trumble down the rows of chairs.
"Sure why not." Where did that come from? I then began moving my legs mimicking Devin.
"Good." Yeah right. "Now you know the basic steips we could go on with the other stuff."
He grabbed my hand and placed his other on my waist. He began to lead, I just kind of followed.
Okay I admit it. I felt stupid. I'd be okay if we did this somewhere private, but not in front of my friends.
"Where did you leard to dance?" I asked.
"Not long ago. I never actually danced with a partner before."
That made me feel kind of special. Being the frist girl to do the waltz with him and all.
"That wasn't my cousin." He added.
Okay, second person.
And so thats what we did, untill lunch. My big date,yippie.
NO, I told my self. This can't be all.
"You have to kiss him!" Alicia's voice ran through my head.
"And I will Alicia I will!" I reminded myself.
"Did yo say something?" Devin asked.
I blushed and shrugged. Thats the last time i'll think out loud. I soon found my self at the edge of the entrance to the castle.
"Thanks for dancing ... with me." Devin said happily.
What was he so happy about? Well whatever, the next thing he did may not hae made a lot of sense but i'm glad he did anyway.
He stepped close to me and gave me a quick kiss, not on the cheeks but on the lips.
That had to mean something.
I stared at him like he was crazy or something. He simply laughed and that smiled appeared, the next few seconds didn't seem to make sense. Oh well. At least I got to kiss him long and hard.
How did that happen?
But the thing was that the kiss didn't mean anything, it wasn't magical or anything at all. To tell you the truth it felt more like a kiss from my grandparents. YUCK!
And to top it all off, guess who saw us snogging? The whole G.Q.T, my sister and her stupid friend.
++++++++++
It turned out that my stupid sisters friends name was Mia. Mia liked Devin. Devin liked Mia.
Need I say more?
"Go Katie!" Krissy teased me as we walked down the hall. "My little sisters all growned up."
She laughed that annoying laugh. The laugh that showed her perfect staight teeth and dimples.
"Why did you Kiss her then!?!"
My sister and I turned around and saw Mia shouting at Devin.
"Did I forget to tell you that the guy you just kissed is Mia's secret crush?" Krissy said stupidly.
"Duh you think?"
"I'm sorry Mia, we were just dancing for you."
What?
"I know you loved to dance ... I just kissed her beacause she begged me too. You know I don't like her. I like you Mia ... " He began to whisper. THe next thing they did stabbed me.
I just ran, I don't know where I was going, I just ran. How could I have been so stupid?!? HE is soo not my dream guy.
I ... guess ... dreams ... don't ... always ... come ... true ...
Tears begain to steem down my face as I entered the common room. Don't be stupid, why are you crying?
I glanced out the windown and found my friends practising Quidditch.
++++++++++
All the Anger was building in me just made me want to throw that quaffle in my hand across the field and through the hoops. And so I did. A bludger came torwards me, should I dodge it? Nah. Kicking it would seem more appropiate.
"Katie?" Angelina stopped flying around and stared at me. Im fact so did everyone else.
I kicked the other bludger that was headed my way.
"I though you were out ... " George said.
"Well now I'm back." I snapped. "I though we where practicing."
"We saw you guys kiss." Fred pointed out.
Why was everone so annoying?!? I grabbed the Quaffle from Alicia's hand and trew it through the hoops again.
"So?" I said rather darkly.
"Kaitie's right," Oliver pointed out. "Were practicing not talking."
Finnaly!
Oliver passsed the quaffle to Fred. Fred passed it to Alicia and back to Oliver. I was clearly open, the only person that didn't have a bluddger comming my way.
He passes it to Angelina. She caught it, but the bludger nearly missed her.
It happened a few more times. Oliver was avoiding me. And thats how the day went, Oliver avoiding me, let alone glancing at me.
I felt horrible. More horrible than Devin choosing Mia over me.
"Thats it for today." Oliver announced at five. "Good work everyone."
Good work to everone you passed too. I slammed my broom on the floor infrustration.
"Katie"
Now what?
To my surprise (and belive me it was a big surprise) my sister was acctaully concerned about me.
"Mia was wrong. The guy was wrong." She starred at me. "You okay?"
No matter how much I say I hate Krissy, I don't.
"Yeah."
And I did.
