Part 1: Introductions

"Ugh" I say as I hit my alarm clock. 9:00 A.M.

I scratch my eyes as I strain to look for my calendar that's supposed to be hanging by my door. "

Oh there it is," I mumble to myself. "October 30. October 30?!" Okay, you might be wondering what's so special about today, so let's start from the introductions. My name is Katie Bell; I work in the Ministry of Magic in the Department of Magical Games and Sports. I used to go to Hogwarts 3 years ago in Gryffindor with my current boyfriend, Oliver Wood. Yes, Oliver Wood the famous quidditch star from Puddlemere United. Well today will be the first day that I'll be able to see him in person ever since last month, also today will be the beginning of our 4 day vacation with each other. I know it's not much but at least I get to see him!

I roll of my bed and check the letter he owled me last week. It says that I'll see him for lunch at 12:00 in The Burrow for a get-together with some of our friends. First thing's first! I head to the bathroom. Must take a nice shower; make sure that I scrub well. Hey! I don't wanna be stinky in front of Oliver.

"Now, what to wear? Hmmm...let's see." I step into my closet (obviously walk-in) and see what I should wear today. Must be comfy and not overdone; just, casual. I pick out a pair of faded jeans, a red turtleneck (Very Gryffindor don't you think?), and a pair of Converse. As I finish putting on my clothes, I cast a drying spell on my hair, pull it back into a ponytail, and then put on some lip-gloss. Like I said, casual. For the final touch, I put on the promise ring that Oliver gave me.

Sitting down on my bed, I just look at it for a while. I remember in our last year in Hogwarts, Oliver was so excited that he'd been chosen for the reserve team of Puddlemere that he was jumping around the common room like some bafoon. That summer he said that no matter how famous he'd become that he would always find time for me. I knew even back then that this was something he could not truly keep. It's not because he's not trying, but really with that much fame, you are really being pulled in all directions. Then later that year, he turned into the star keeper of the team after the previous keeper had retired; that's when the 'Sorry, I can only see you maybe once a month' thing started. I had been expecting it since I know that training, the tournaments, and of course the traveling would take up a lot of his time. Although, I have always been happy in the days he would be able to come and visit, which I have to admit, is very rare. And don't think that when he's not here he forgets me; he sends me a lot of things too mind you. He even got me this apartment that's supposed to be ours but since he keeps on traveling, it's mostly mine. He also gives me money of course, jewelry, and clothes, that kind of stuff. Yeah I know what you're thinking, 'That's the life!' right? Well, to be truthful and no matter how corny this is, I would rather him than all these stuff that mostly I don't even need.

"Let's see what time it is" I look back up at the clock and see that it's already 11:00. Time sure flies when you're reminiscing. Anyways must be back to reality.

"Now what do I do for another hour? Angelina's invited, maybe I could- right, she has work today in St. Mungo's (she's a healer). Hmm...what about Alicia? Yeah! I can hang out there since she own her own shop anyways."

After grabbing my purse, I decide to disapparate into Alicia and Angelina's house.

"Katie!" she yells running towards me from the bedroom.

"Don't we look pretty today? Maybe for a special quidditch player perhaps?" she smiles at me with an arched brow.

"You know the answer already, Alicia. No need to ask," I say before plopping down on one of the black leather couches. Note to self, get one of these. Very Comfortable. "

So, why are you here?"

"Well, we still have one hour before the get together in The Burrow and I didn't know what to do, so I decided to drop by."

"Okay well, we can watch T.V. if you want?"

"Sure!"

After a couple of minutes, I stand up "Alicia, its 11:45. We better go already."

"Yeah you're right. C'mon lets go, we don't want to keep any hot quidditch star waiting!" she smiles at me before dissaperating.

"Alicia!" I smile before disapparating myself.
