Hello! Thanks to all my reviewers (see end of story - read FIRST!) Here is
my next chapter and I'm sorry it took me sooo long. I've been real busy!
So without further ado.
I'm Just Me (Chapter 2)
I followed Cedric out of the compartment, yeah I know I have a crush on Oliver but even I knew that Cedric was definitely hot! "So." I said giving him my best smile (no harm after all!) He grinned back at me "So. Katie, um how was your holidays?" "Err. fine, and yours?" well whatever I was expecting it wasn't that! "It was good actually" he answered me; we stood there awkwardly for awhile. "Actually Katie I brought you out here for a specific reason. I know you're good friends with Alicia and I was just wondering. ishshegoingoutwitholiver?" Cedric asked me saying the last bit in a rush. I didn't quite get it. "What?" I asked giving him my best confused look. "Is Alicia going out with Oliver?" he asked more slowly. Ah. Alicia. "Yeah she is. figures." I trailed off. Now he looked confused "Figures?" he asked. Damn he heard me, well I might as well tell him "Yeah, she is so pretty and she gets Oliver and yeah." I looked down. "Hey Katie, do you like Oliver?" Cedric asked looking up at me, I stared at him. Uh oh, stall Katie, c'mon girl "Err. Um, well that is to say.I. Yeah, I kinda do." He smiled at me (a beautiful smile) "Well you know how I feel, I spose. I better go talk to you later ok?" I smiled and nodded and he left me standing in the corridor.
"Well? Did he ask you out? Does he like you? Do you like him? "When are you going to take it to the next level?" Karla asked me in a rush as soon as I got in the door, I rolled my eyes at her "No, no, maybe, probably never - to answer your questions in order" I noted proudly. "Well what did he want?" she asked. I sighed "He asked me if Alicia was going out with Oliver and then I said yes, and then he asked me if I liked Oliver and I ummed and erred and told him that I did. Then he left. Figures." I told her. Yeah it always figures. "Oh" Karla looked crest-fallen.
*** I was in the dorms, the only one up there getting ready for bed. Everyone else was still in the common room. I changed in to my stripy pj's and flopped on the bed, almost ready to cry. Here I was lusting after my best friend's boy and then the next hottest guy wants her as well, great. I shook myself; I shouldn't be so damn emotional.
Alicia walked into the room, "Hey Kit, you left the common room early, anything wrong babe?" I shook my head in the negative at her, and she nodded "I heard that Cedric dropped by to chat?" stupid Karla can't keep her mouth shut I thought, I answered "Yeah he did." "Cool" she sighed "hey Kit, do you think he is hot? Like really hot? Because I do! I mean I know I have Oliver and all but phew sometimes I wonder, if I wasn't going out with Oliver. well I would so jump Cedric" she told me and giggled, I was silent and she looked at me so I started giggling as well. "Yeah, Cedric is hot, but would you really jump him?" I asked her. Alicia leaned on my bed and thought about it, she turned to me and nodded "Well Kit, I'm going to bed. Say night to Karla when she comes up for me. G'night!" "Night Leish!" I called out.
I leaned back in my bed, my earlier stupor forgotten. Alicia thought Cedric was hot, but not only that she would jump him if it wasn't for Oliver. That was news to me, and maybe news I could use to my advantage. A plan was starting to form in my mind.
*** "Hey Karla" I said "Alls fair in love and war right?" Karla turned and looked at me "You have my blessing Kat, but remember she aint just a minion she is one of your best friends. That being a reminder, is there anything I can do?" I smiled, Karla was so perceptive, and she knew I had some sort of plan for snagging Oliver. "Yeah there is something you can do, you have Arithmancy with Cedric next? Well tell him I need to speak to him, tell him I'll come to the Hufflepuff common room after dinner at 7PM. He needs to let me in." I smiled and grinned "Can you remember all that, Karla? I can repeat!" Karla looked at me strangely and shook her head. "I'll remember it. And Katie you're weird." It was my turn to look strangely, sometimes Karla said the weirdest things.
I spent Ancient Runes in a dream, knowing that Karla was 3 floors below me telling Cedric. He would be surprised, but I didn't care. he would see me, he HAD to. It crossed my mind he might not want to. And I outwardly shook my head.
* "You're looking a lot more cheerful than last night Kit" Alicia said to me at dinner, I nodded erratically and grinned "look, my spaghetti has a face!" I told her "she is in one of her weird moods" Karla chimed in from across the table. "When is she not?" Oliver asked us as he joined the table. "Thanks for that Wood" I answered him, damn he looked good. "Hi baby" Alicia said, I rolled my eyes at Karla. "Guess what? I was in Care of Magical Creatures today and anyway Toby Carthew came up to me and guess what he said? "What? Alicia, Karla and me answered in unison "He wants to go out with Karla! Hows about that Karla huh? You wanna? DoyaDoyaDoyaDoya?" He asked imitating Karla perfectly. "Toby? You serious?" Karla asked Oliver nodded. Karla squeaked "Hell yeah!" she squealed and pumped her fist. "Give it a week" Alicia told everyone "A week? Na mate, 4 days maybe 5" I countered Karla looked at us "As if, Toby is so nice" she said in a dreamy tone "That's what you said about Ben, TJ, Adrian, Andrew, Tom, Thomas and Ash" Alicia said "and don't forget Gus, Terry, Mark, John and Peter.and all the guys at home" I reminded her. Karla laughed and flipped her very blond hair "well I can't help it if I get bored, but Toby seems interesting." She smiled. "I'll go tell him for you. Later Ladies." Oliver said, with that he gave Alicia a peck and left. Jeez I wished I was Alicia.
At 10 to seven I left the Gryffindor common room and smashed straight into Oliver "Whoa! Sorry Bell didn't see you there. Are you ok?" he asked me, I nodded "yeah I'm good. Are you ok?" "yup, listen I need to ask you a favour, can you meet me in the library tomorrow night I have two questions to ask. say 8:30 after training?" was he being serious? Oliver looked serious. Oh my god he isn't joking. "Sure" I squeaked out. "Great" he told me and smiled, leaving me weak at the knees. Oliver Wood, yes Oliver Wood just asked me to meet him in the library, WOW! I sped down the stairs and rounded the corner that led to the Hufflepuff painting, and thankfully there was Cedric. Phew.
"Hey Katie, what's up?" Cedric asked me upon arrival, he looked at me "you're blushing, it makes you look really nice." I blushed harder. First Oliver now Cedric. I smiled "Thanks Ced, I got news for you, and then a proposition." "Shoot." "Ok well, you know how you like Alicia and I like Oliver, well Alicia found out we were talking" Cedric looked alarmed "No, not what we were talking bout, anyway, guess what? She said if she wasn't with Oliver she would try for you. And well it had me thinking, maybe we could make her jealous and yeah well that's all I thought." He smiled at me "Katie, I think it's a great idea. Listen I gotta go but me in the library tomorrow night at 9 and we'll talk then Ok? And hey you're a genius!" "I know! Ok seeya then!" I left the Hufflepuff room feeling elated stage one of Get Oliver was in progress!
