Chapter 2: A Past Resurfaces
"Katie! Catch!" Angelina yelled and threw the red quaffle to her. Katie caught it effortlessly. Katie raced toward the hoops. Oliver watched her, half trying to calculate her moves, half admiring the determination in her eyes. She flew off to the right hoop and Oliver followed. She threw and he tried to catch, but the quaffle wasn't there. He looked to his left and he saw the ball go right through the left hoop. He looked at the blonde chaser impressed. "Nice move, Katie," Oliver commented. She smiled proudly. "I know!" The team flew around practicing for 10 more minutes before Oliver yelled for the team to hit the showers.
Katie trudged into the showers. Her muscles hurt so badly from that practice. That long, long practice. "Stupid Oliver," she thought as she turned on the hot water as hot as she could handle it and then let the water run over her shoulders.
"Oi! Save some hot water for us Bell!" Angelina shouted out as she stepped into the steaming room. "Sorry girls," Katie replied, turning down the hot water a touch. "So, Katie. Oliver thinks you move nice," Angelina said to her. "Ha ha ha, quiet. He liked the move I devised," Katie denied. "His eyes were on you the whole time though!" Alicia said. "Whatever, I don't care. Let's not even get started on this. I'm not going to go out with him," she said in a stern voice. "Katie, when are you going to get off that high horse and look at what's right in front of you," Angelina said and stepped out of the shower, "Oliver is a great guy. I don't know why you can't see that." Alicia walked out with her. "Whatever," Katie mumbled to herself and finished her shower.
When she finally got out of the shower, the change room was empty. She didn't think she had taken that long in the shower, but she didn't mind the emptiness. Well at least she thought the room was empty. She finished dressing and when she was almost finished drying her hair, she heard a voice from behind her. "You did great out there today Katie." The voice belonged to Oliver. She gasped and spun around quickly. "Thanks," she said shocked. "Sorry for scaring you," he said moving closer. He looked different. His eyes were darker then she'd ever seen them. She recoiled as he moved closer. "Don't be like that, I'm not going to hurt you. I just want to talk to you about something," he said seriously, brushing a golden strand out of her eye. "Ok, what is it?" she asked as she started to throw her stuff into her locker. "I want to know why you won't give me a chance," he said looking at her intensely. She sighed heavily before she said what he needed to hear. "You're cocky and you can have any other girl in the school. Hell, you've had almost all Gryffindor Tower, and some of Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff! I'm saving myself for someone who won't play me." With that, she walked out of the change room and headed straight for the Great Hall for dinner.

"Hey girls," Katie said as she sat down at the table. "Hey, what about us?!" Fred and George Weasley called to her. She smiled at their mischievous blue eyes and their ruffled, flaming red hair. "Like I said, hey girls," Katie grinned as she loaded up her plate. That damn practice. The 5 laughed. "You're so mean to us," George complained, trying to hold a straight face. "Oh you two. You know I only joke!" she said. "Well don't worry we'll get you back if you weren't," Fred said, referring to something in his hand. "Don't worry! I was! I know not to cross you two," Katie said and started to eat.
A few minutes Oliver came to dinner, looking rather mad. Angelina noticed. "You alright Oliver?" "Fine," he replied starting to eat. "Alicia? Can you come help me with some potions stuff I haven't finished?" Angelina said as innocently as she could. "What? That potions thing isn't due till Friday!" Alicia said. Angelina kicked Alicia under the table and motioned with her head toward Oliver. "Oh! That thing! Right! Umm. See you all later!" she said and followed Angelina out of the hall.
Katie eyed the girls suspiciously as they walked out. She knew what those two were up to, and it wasn't good. "I wonder what they're doing," Katie said. "Likely up to trouble. You know those girls," Fred said grinning. "It's only trouble if you two are involved," Oliver spoke up and grinned at Katie. She gave a tiny smile back and got up. "I'll see you all back in the common room!"
"Wow, Oliver looked really mad," Alicia said. "Yeah. But you should have heard what she said to him. I was going back to the change rooms to see if Katie was still there and I walked in on their conversation. She said she wanted a guy who wasn't going to play her and that he was too cocky. You know what's going on? She's still hung up on that Roger thing. I could kill that jerk for what he did to her. He lied and cheated on her so many times," Angelina went off. "I know. But that doesn't give her the right to treat Oliver like this," Alicia said back, "I understand her not being able to trust a guy, especially a guy like Oliver. He isn't that innocent. He's been around Gryffindor Tower more times then the Quidditch pitch. But I don't blame her. I would have been the same way if some guy did that to me." "I know. I feel the same way. I think we need to talk to Oliver about this," Angelina said as watched Katie walk out. They watched her head up the stairs, and then they walked back in.
Oliver watched the doors, wishing Katie would walk back through them. "She's not coming back mate," George said. "What?" Oliver said. "Katie. You're waiting for her to walk back through those doors. You're way to obvious about this!" George replied. Oliver blushed, instantly giving him away, not that it wasn't that obvious anyway. "After what happened with Davies, you'll have to give her the whole damn world just to loosen her up," Fred said, moving over the table to sit beside Oliver. "She's just the type of girl that needs to be convinced." "Shit, I forgot about Davies," Oliver said to himself. The twins nodded.
"Yeah, you can't depend on those Scottish charms of yours to win her over," said the voice of Angelina. Oliver turned toward her. "I know! You two need to help me!" Oliver pleaded, "Ok you four." "We intended on it, don't you worry about that. We're going to help you win over Katie," Alicia said. "We're all going to help you. Katie needs to understand that all guys aren't Roger," Angelina added. Oliver smiled. "Thanks. I knew I could depend on you."
A/N: There it is!!! How am I doing with character development? Is it ok? I hope you all like the story so far!
