This is a funny love story
Oliver…Chap. 1
"Great practice guys, I know we'll win on Saturday!" Wood thundered.
I landed my broom, exhausted. Put it safely in the broom shed and followed Alicia Into the locker room. She and Angelina were talking animatedly about some guy. From the sound of it, it was either Fred or George.
George and I had dated for almost 3 years. When he asked me in 2nd year I was only too happy to accept. He was sweet, carefree, everything I would want at that age. But over the past year we began to grow apart. In the past I never wanted or needed him to be serious. But I started growing up, needing a more committed, serious relationship, and I just didn't see myself getting that from George. I couldn't ask him to be something he's not.
So on the last day of our 4th year, we broke up. He was stunned and confused, and asked for an explanation but I couldn't give him one.
"Hey Katie, you did great today!" Angelina called, pulling me out of my thoughts.
"Oh, thanks Angelina, you and Alicia did too!" I said, catching up to where they were standing.
" Did you see Lee's hair today? Fred and George must have hexed it! George is so funny, and clever, he's always coming up with new pranks! Don't you think s-" but Angelina had elbowed her in the ribs, and muttered something, turned and smiled at me nervously.
"You guys, that was a few months ago, you can talk about George. He and I are still friends, ya know."
"Oh, well…." Angelina stammered
"Let's change the subject shall we?" I suggested.
"Yea, good idea" they chorused.
Not wanting it to be awkward I just shouted "So do you think Mcgonagall could have given us any more homework!?" My two best friends laughed and we walked to separate showers.
"I'll be up for ages finishing that essay" Angelina called over the running water.
"Oh me too! How does she expect us to know that much about Animagi?" Alicia said.
I just laughed, and rinsed the potion out of my hair.
Turning the water off, I grabbed my towel from the hook on the side (The Shower stalls were very big, the girl's had small benches in the corner)
Stepping out of the shower stall, I looked around to see where I'd put my clothes.
Finding them in a heap on the chair ahead of me I grabbed them and changed.
Angelina and Alicia followed suit.
"Boy, I'm gonna feel this practice tomorrow morning!" I told the two of them as they brushed their hair.
"Yea, Wood really pushed us today" Alicia Agreed.
"Do you want me to dry your hair for you Katie? I learned this awesome new spell that leaves your hair perfectly strait!" Alicia Asked.
"Of course!"
So I moved over to where Alicia was standing and sat in front of her, a mirror in front of me. Wood was so accommodating. I remember complaining the Second month I was on the team, and he'd brought the issue up with Dumbledore the same day.
"Thanks Alicia! It looks great!"
"Anything for you, luv" she joked.
We all burst into A fit of giggles.
"Shall I braid it for you?" Angelina offered. "I know how you don't like it in your face."
"Trying to out do me?!" Alicia said in mock jealousy.
We all laughed again.
"Yea, that would be great Angelina." I smiled
"Ah Well Alicia, Katie has spoken! Angelina said. Laughing again.
After all of us had done each other's hair, we walked out of the locker room and began walking up to the castle, when remembered I'd left my ring back in the locker room.
"Hey guys I forgot my ring, I'll catch up with you later k?"
"Do you want us to wait for you?"
"No it's ok, I'll see you in a bit!"
She didn't know why she refused them, but it didn't matter. She would just go grab it and hurry back up to the castle.
She turned and sprinted down to the girl's locker room and grabbed her ring off the counter. She was walking back, when she stopped by the broom shed. She felt like flying a bit longer, so she set her things down and got her broom out. She mounted it and took off, oh how she loved the feeling. Night had really fallen and the stars shone bright. She weaved in and out of the goal posts. About 15 minutes later she'd decided she should get to the castle soon. Her friends were probably wondering where she was.
So she dived and landed gracefully, got off and walked back to the broom shed.
Just then Oliver Wood was coming out of the boy's locker room.
Katie hadn't noticed him. She'd put her broom away and was locking the shed, when a voice scared the wits out of her.
"That was some great flying today, Katie"
It was Wood. He always took long showers but Katie had forgotten.
She replied quietly, still shaken up "Oh thankyou, Oliver."
Oliver, she couldn't remember the last time that she'd called him that. Not since well, when she'd first met him.
She turned around, suddenly aware of how close he was. She looked up into his blue eyes; not believing she'd never noticed how handsome he was. And that Cologne, it was deliciously intoxicating.
Her mouth hung slightly open.
Oliver bent his neck and captured her mouth. She closed her eyes. She suddenly was feeling weak in the knees. She kissed him back, and he took that opportunity to deepen the kiss.
How was he doing this to her? She'd hardly ever given him a glance, and now was sharing a passionate kiss with him. Bloody hell, she thought, he is a good kisser.
He put his hand behind her neck, and slowly pulled away. He looked into her sparkling green eyes and sighed. "Wow"
