Author's Notice: It has been such a long time! Words do not describe. I hope this new chapter of Been There Done That will make ya'll happy, I know it's short but it's something, right? I never intended to abandon this story I just, you know, LIFE, LIFE gets in the way of everything! It's 12:10 AM, I feel like updating, I don't know why. :) I can't believe it, I'm a junior now! School is too much work. Anyway, onwards! Enjoy this! It's kinda short, sorry :( But I'll work on being better at updating this because it is my baby and it seems like a lot of people like it. Oh and sorry if anything in here contradicts things written in past chapters, I REALLY wasn't in the mood to go back and read all the previous chapters (although that too, at one point, was intended) I'm lazy. :( More coming soon.

To all of you: THANK YOU FOR YOUR REVIEWS. YOU ROCK!

3:45 PM:

Talking to Alicia.

Does one really talk to Alicia? Today she grunted at me and expected me to understand her. I don't understand grunting. Alicia asked me, in grunts, if I'd pass her a bacon bit, so I threw the bacon bits at her and she grunted even more, and growled. And then grunted again. Somehow I think things would be much better if we all just grunted at each other.

8:15 PM:

Whenever Oliver calls me Hammy everyone looks at us like we're crazy. Oliver and I are a normal couple. Just because he calls me Hammy does not mean we have a messed up relationship, in fact I like Oliver calling me Hammy. Is that weird? Sometimes I think people think he is implying that I'm fat, I'm not fat, I am NORMAL. I am a NORMAL human being.

Who happens to be dating the hottest guy at school. Imagine that.

Haha you wish you were me don't you?

9:34 PM:

I ran into Marcus on my way to the kitchens, I got the usual glare from Marcus. I came back and reported to Alicia.

"What did he say?"

Marcus doesn't SAY anything he just LOOKS at you like you are an ALIEN. I am not an ALIEN I am a NORMAL HUMAN BEING but no one BELIEVES ME. What is up with that? I think I'm going insane.

"He said to tell you hi, to and lay off the bacon bits."

Now Alicia was getting offended. "Marcus did not say that, Katie." She said my name like she hated me, how could she hate me? We are best friends!

"How do you know he didn't say that?" I teased holding a packet of bacon bits over her head. "How do you know? Were you there?"

Alicia got very quiet like and thoughtful, "I am invisible. I can see everything."

I burst out laughing and she didn't laugh. "Yeah right, Alicia."

"I am," Alicia said.

At that point I thought the bacon bits had drugs in them, I was seriously worried for the sake of my friend. But some drugs and bacon bits and...drugs/bacon bits TOGETHER never hurt anybody, in fact, it might be fun every now and then.

"Anyway, I don't talk to Marcus."

"Marcus is too good to talk to you."

That's the funny thing with girls, you're friends and all but all you do is insult each other and yell at each other. Ah, friendship gives me a warm fuzzy feeling in my heart.

"Whatever," I said, wanting to make her faint with my coolness, with my tone of voice, and then I continued because I like that word. "Whatever whatever whateverrrrrrrrrrr."

"Yeah whut-ever," Alicia said, filing her abnormally large nails with her big toe. Yes, that is humanly possible. "How's Oliver?"

"Oh fine, fine fine...today he gave me a rose," ha, that would show her to even TRY to ask me about my LIFE.

Actually, Oliver never does anything remotely romantic.

"Oliver isn't romantic," the Wise One said.

I glared. "He is very romantic."

"How?"

Alicia asks me too many questions.

"The way he kisses me, the way we..."

"KATIE! That is inappropriate. This is SCHOOL, it is TOO LATE to be talking about such things."

"Alicia, keep your voice down, we're fine!"

"No one's looking?"

"No."

"Okay, in that case, give me all the details."

Alicia, who had just revealed her obvious sickoness, looked excited and began to nervously wring her hands, her palms sweaty. "Tell!"

Now I found this creepy too, there is a fine line between telling Alicia nothing and giving her the play-by-play on me and Arthur---I mean, Oliver snogging.

"I ain't tellin' you nothin'!"

I did not know how my language changed from normal human being to some sort of 1900's farmer man person.

"KATIE!"

"ALICIA!"

"WHAT?"

"YOU WANT A PIECE OF CHOCOLATE?"

"YEAH!"

"HERE."

"THANK YOU."

7:00 AM:

So I was walking on my way to the Great Hall for an inspiring breakfast of toast and oatmeal and I run into the MAN. DUMBLEDORE. I never run into The Man, he is too good to be seen socializing with us normal people. He always gives me this look...this I know what you're up to look, Missy.

"Hello, Sir Dumbledore," I said feeling very much so unimportant standing in front of him.

"You are very smart, Katie," he said nodding, so wise and so handsome standing before me.

"You are too!" I said, feeling thrilled. "You are SO SO SO SO SO SOOOOO smart!"

Dumbledore got thoughtful again, and then winced at my voice, "thank you, Katie."

"You can call me Hammy if you please." I felt like Dumbledore and I were ready to bring our relationship to a personal one, one in which he could call me my given name. Hammy.

He just looked at me, adjusted his glasses and said, "have you got any oatmeal so far this morning?"

"On my way!" I said: "Shall we?" I motioned to the Great Hall and started following him, he almost ran, I swear, no one's ever seen Dumbledore run but he was RUNNING for that oatmeal...or just running away from me.

I enjoyed today's oatmeal. When I ate it all I could think about was Dumbledore. Dumbledore running. So graceful, so lovely, so...

2:20 PM:

I can't believe it's only Tuesday.
