Chapter Three: Some secrets he never knew
When they had arrived at Hogwarts, there was a Professor McGongall. Was standing there, so Oliver walked over to her with Cynthia still in his arms. Professor McGongall just shook her head, and then she pointed her wand at Cynthia, and the next thing that Katie and Oliver knew was Cynthia was gone.
"We will be able to see her after the Feast?" Oliver asks her.
"I don't know Wood. It's up to Madam Promfery" Professor McGongall said. "I think the both of you should get on one of the carriages before they leave you here."
So both Katie and Oliver piled into the carriage, and Oliver was looking out the window.
"I know Oliver. You feel helpless because you aren't able to help Cynthia" Katie said. But he didn't answer her. "It's not her fault you know. It's not she wanted to be a seer."
Then Oliver had turned his head to Katie. "What did you say?" he asks her.
Katie looks at Oliver and then she shook her head no. "I shouldn't have told you that. You weren't meant to know that."
Oliver then grabbed onto one of Katie's hand, and he made her look into his dark brown eyes. "Katie...why did you just say that Cynthia is a seer?"
"All right Oliver. You were never meant to know. But Cynthia is a seer. You know we learned about that in the History of Magic. They had supposedly died out."
"But they hadn't if Cynthia is one of them. Why did she never tell me this? I am her best friend" Oliver protested.
Katie then looked out the window. All she could do was sighing to reply to Oliver. She had to think what to tell next that she wouldn't get Cynthia mad at her. This was one weird relationship that they had. And it was good until now. Cynthia told Katie secrets that she didn't want Oliver to know. Katie had played Quidditch with Oliver so they could always talk about Quidditch if they got bored. While Cynthia grew up with Oliver, and Oliver would tell Katie that Cynthia was so beautiful.
"I don't know what to tell you Oliver. Me and Cynthia are close friends too," Katie said.
All Katie saw was Oliver look away from her. And all Katie could think of was how Cynthia will end up hating her when Oliver goes to talk to her.
Oliver knew Katie didn't mean to tell him. But he was hurt that Cynthia wouldn't tell him about it. Like all the years of growing didn't matter to her. All the secrets that Oliver had told Cynthia. He knew whom much Katie meant to him, cause Cynthia never showed an interested in Quidditch. It was bad enough that Mark his older brother would joke about how Cynthia and Oliver would end up getting married.
Oliver had no idea why all of a sudden he was thinking about the differences of Cynthia and Katie. Then he started to curse himself, that Davies had put it in his head.
When the Welcome Feast was over, Oliver had left his friends and headed towards the Hospital wing.
"Well Harry. I'm glad we finally have a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor that knows what he is talking about" Madame Promfery smiled.
Then she saw Oliver. She then walks to him. She saw on his face he was sad. That was probably because he couldn't see Cynthia.
"Mr. Wood. I hope you aren't here to see Mr. Potter," she said.
"No. I want to see Cynthia," he said.
"I'm sorry. She is still sleeping. She probably won't be getting up until tomorrow," she said.
Madame Promfery had never dealt with a seer. At least one that had fallen victim to a dementor. And since seers are allergic to chocolate she couldn't help Cynthia that way.
"Do you think tomorrow I'll be able to see her?" Oliver asks her.
"I'm sure you'll be able to," she forced at smile on her face.
Then Oliver had left the hospital wing. Madame Promfery had sighed. It was already the first day back at Hogwarts and she had two people who fell to dementors. And one of the them was a seer. She knew that this year would probably top last year.
Katie saw Oliver walk into the common room. She knew that he probably didn't notice her. And at the moment she didn't care. He was probably still heart broken that Cynthia didn't tell him that she was a seer. In fact Katie remembers when Cynthia even told her.
-*-Flashback-*-
"All right Cynthia, why did you have to drag me to this room?" Katie asks, her.
Katie saw the room it look all elegant. It just made Katie smile for being in a room like this. And she wanted to ask Cynthia how she came across this room.
"Look Katie! The reason why I brought you here is because I have to tell you something. And you have to swear to me that you won't even tell Oliver" Cynthia said.
Katie just stares at Cynthia. She knew that Cynthia and Oliver were best friends. That they were like brother and sister since they grew up together. And that both Oliver and Cynthia had both become her best friends since their first year. And now they were in their fifth year.
"You have to swear to me," Cynthia stated again.
"All right Cynthia. What do you have to tell me?" Katie said.
"Well, I am a seer" Cynthia said.
Katie just looked at Cynthia and then broke out into laughter.
"No! Katie I am serious. I can see the future," Cynthia said.
Katie stop laughing and she saw how serious she was. Katie then looked at the ground.
"How long have you know for?" Katie asks.
"Well remember when Harry, Ron and Hermione were in the hole with the Sorcerer Stone. That was the first time I saw a vision. Later that night I was in Dumbledore's office with my mother and grandmother" Cynthia explained.
"Why don't you want Oliver to know?" Katie asks.
"Because, he thinks of me like his sister. But you've been my best friend. And I trust you" Cynthia told her.
Katie didn't know what to say about that. She couldn't believe that her best friend was a seer. And that she was the only one to know about Cynthia's little secret.
-*- End of Flashback -*-
"Hey Miss Katie" Oliver was smiling.
"Oh Oliver how long have you been standing there?" Katie asks him.
"Oh for a while now. Long enough to figure out that you were probably day dreaming" Oliver said. "So, what were you day dreaming about?"
Katie had look up at Oliver and she didn't know what to say.
"Oh, I was just thinking about something Cynthia told me" Katie said.
"Did you know anymore secrets that Cynthia never told me?" Oliver asks her.
Katie understood that Oliver was angry and upset. It was because his best friend was lying in a hospital bed. She had to think about her word wisely. She then got up from the chair that she was sitting in and she walk over to the stairs.
"Listen Oliver. That was the only thing that I can remember. Cynthia ever telling me that you shouldn't know" Katie said.
But in her head she was saying your lying. And she knew it because Cynthia had told her something this holiday. But this is definitely something Oliver doesn't want to hear when his best friend in the hospital wing.
"I'm going to bed Oliver. And I think you should also. You look so drained," Katie said.
Oliver had sat in the seat Katie had and he was going over the whole day in his head. Then when he went to say something to Katie, he saw that she was gone. Which he just hung his head and didn't know what to think. He wouldn't stop beating himself up, because he thought that it was his fault that she was in the hospital wing. Then he felt a hand on his shoulder, and he looked up and saw Cynthia standing there.
"Oliver sweetie...you shouldn't beat yourself up" Cynthia said, before Oliver had anytime to react.
When Oliver went to go and hug Cynthia, she was gone. He was once again left alone and not totally blaming his self as much. But he was aching to see Cynthia smile again.
