Chapter Two Warmth and Sunshine

Oliver's POV

Poor Katie. I just wish I could tell her. But no, I can't. Not while she's in this state. I'm so worried about her. Mind you, she is so pretty when she's crying. I wish I could hold her like this forever...

Katie's POV

I felt so warm. Nothing could hurt me with Oliver around. It's getting closer to Hogwarts and we had to get our robes on. Oliver kissed the top of my head and I was forced to look up into his chocolate brown eyes. They were filled with worry, yet still sexy. Ah, Bell, how can you be thinking about that?! He's your friend!

"Oliver, it's getting close to Hogwarts, we need to put our robes on..." I said quietly, drying my tears.

"I know, but I don't want you going anywhere on your own... Anyway, Fred stashed your trunk so we'll have to ask him when he gets back." Oliver replied, holding me into his warm, muscular chest. I shivered slightly, he responded by holding me closer to him. Then the carriage stopped. I started to shiver even more, burrowing my face into him. We stayed like that for a few minutes before the door opened. A horrible creature glided in, staring straight at me. I screamed, reliving the worst moment of my life, before fainting.

As I woke up I tried to remember what had happened. I heard a small noise and found Oliver, asleep in the chair next to me. He was holding my hand and seemed to be having a nightmare. I gently woke him up, trying not to startle him.

"What happened?" I whispered as he woke up.

"Oh, Kates, thank goodness you're all right!" He replied, "A dementor came, I was so worried, you just fainted..."

"What did Fred and George do to Flint?" I asked.

"Oh, well, let's just say that he won't be flying for a while..." Oliver said smiling. I started to laugh, a lot, so much that Madam Pomfrey came and told me that I was fine and I should leave before I woke anyone else up. That made me laugh even more. It wasn't even that funny, I had just had a hard day.

Oliver and I walked back to the common room to find Ange, Alicia, Fred, George and Lee all waiting for us. I noticed that George had a black eye and Fred had bandaging around his wrist. Even so, as soon as I walked in I was surrounded by my friends, getting suffocated from their hugs.

"Hey guys, I know you all love me, but I do need to breath," I said, laughing. They immediately got off me, letting me have some air, "Now, I think we should all go to bed because no doubt Oliver will have us up at dawn for training..."

"Aye, she knows me well," Oliver said, "Be on the pitch at 6:00, no later." And with that we all groaned and went to bed.

"Rise and shine!" Licia said as Ange pulled my covers off my bed. "We don't want Oliver to get angry now, do we?"

I groaned and said, "Screw Oliver, I'm sleeping in!"

"No you're not," A familiar Scottish voice replied as he pulled me out of bed and gave me my quidditch robes. I groaned and went into the bathroom to get changed. When I emerged I immediately took my broom and stumbled down the stairs, out of the castle and to the locker room.

When the team was assembled Oliver gave us his usual talk about how we must train hard and work as a team. So, instead of training today we would be doing team building exercises. And of course, everyone was excited about that! Or not... Oliver led us onto the pitch and gave us each a toothpick.

"And what, all mighty captain, might we be doing with these?" George asked. Oliver smiled and produced a packet of lifesavers, a type of muggle lollies.

I gasped, "I've done this!"

Oliver smiled and said, "Well, would you care to demonstrate with me." It wasn't a question but I statement. I put the toothpick in my mouth as Oliver did the same, putting a life saver on his toothpick. He walked towards me, forcing me to stand on my toes as he is a good few inches taller than me. I slipped my toothpick through the life saver Oliver let it slide onto my toothpick. There were several catcalls behind us, coming from Gred and Forge. Ange and Licia were both giggling. I know why, it must've looked like we were snogging. Harry looked dead nervous. Mind you, he is young and immature about these things. Then again, so are the rest of the team.

"Okay, team, put your toothpicks in your mouths and we will start." Oliver said in his serious, sexy captain voice. Sexy? Bad, Katie, bad. We finally finished when it began to rain and headed into the locker rooms.

I love showering. When I had finished everyone had already left the room. I got dressed and got out of the showering area. As I was putting my clothes back into my locker I heard a voice behind me.

"No one is here to save you, Katie," Flint said. He pushed me up against the lockers and I started to scream. He put his hand over my mouth and started to unbutton my shirt. I struggled and kicked and bit his hand. He didn't seem to care. Flint had finished unbuttoning my shirt and had thrown it off. He started on my jeans when I heard someone yell.

"Stupefy!" The voice said. Flint crumpled and I saw Oliver through my blurry, tearful eyes. Then I collapsed on the floor, crying. Oliver ran up to me and put his jacket around my bare shoulders. It was then I realised I was only in my bra and jeans.

"How did you know to find me here?" I asked through my sobs.

"Well, Licia said you had just gotten out of the shower when she left. I knew that you wouldn't waste time getting dressed because you hadn't eaten yet. So I came to see if you were alright," He replied, wiping my tears, "Come on, I'll take you to your dorm." And with that he handed me my shirt and led me into the sunshine.
