Katie had made her decision; she was going to give Dumbledore her resignation today at dinner. Katie was quitting her job to be with Oliver. The time away from him was killing her.

Of course she loved her job, but she loved Oliver so much more. She loved helping the kids learn, but she loved being with Oliver more. So what if she had to travel around the world she would do that so she could be with Oliver.

Katie was on her way to the Great Hall while she was thinking these thoughts. She had just reached the Professor's table when she heard Dumbledore's voice,

"Do you have something on your mind that you would like to share Ms. Bell?"

Katie stopped dead in her tracks when he asked her this question. He knew what she was going to say he just wanted her to say it to him. He wanted her to tell him to his face.

"Actually professor there is something I have tell you." She said

"Ms. Bell you have been teaching here for almost a year and I don't know how many times I have told you not to call me professor anymore. Call me Albus," He said with a mischievous grin on his face.

"I called you professor for almost seven years of my life Albus, and old habits die hard. I am so used to calling you professor." She smiled at him adding extra emphasis on the ALBUS.

"Quit all right Ms. Bell now what did you want to tell me?"

"Well sir as you know Oliver is the keeper for Puddlemere United and I don't get to see him a lot so decided I am going to quite teaching so I can travel with him. You know I love to teach but I love Oliver so much and I cant stand not being able to see him everyday and this was the only solution I could come up with. I won't leave until the end of the term so it will give you enough time to find a replacement for me." Katie said this so fast she was out of breath by the time she finished telling him what she was going to do.

"Well Ms. Bell I see you have made you decision, but I really don't think that the decision you made was necessary." Dumbledore said giving her a mischievous smile and all the while looking over her shoulder and smiling

"Why is that Alb...?" before she could finish her question she felt a pair of arms wrap around her waist and heard the voice she had not heard in months

"Hey Kates did you miss me?" It was Oliver.
