Oliver ran through the vanishing glass that disguised the building that was St. Mungo's. Several Healers buzzed by him and he looked around frantically. He spotted the floor guide posted on the wall and quickly read it.

"Where do I go?" Oliver asked himself. He spotted another sign which read If you are unsure where to go, incapable of normal speech, or unable to remember why you are here, our Welcome Witch will be pleased to help. Oliver looked around. Instead of finding the Welcome Witch, he spotted a familiar face. "Alicia!" he hollered. "Alicia!" Alicia spun around, searching for the source of her name.

"Oliver!" she exclaimed. "Hey, what-oh my god! Katie!"

"Alicia, please help me," Oliver said. "She got hit on the head and she…………please help."

"OK," Alicia said. "Let's just calm down. Follow me." She led Oliver down a corridor, into a ward, and into a room. Oliver set Katie down on a bed. Another Healer entered the room, holding a clipboard. "Bludger to the head," Alicia told her. "Not serious, but unconscious. Better not use a revival potion, it might be too much." The other Healer nodded and left the room. "What exactly happened?" Alicia asked Oliver.

"We were flying and I was talking to her, and it just came out of nowhere and hit her on the back of the head. She started to fall so I grabbed her and-will she be all right?"

Alicia nodded. "She'll be fine," she said. "She's just got a nasty bump." Oliver nodded and collapsed into a chair.

"She's having a rough day," he mumbled. "Her sister, Elizabeth……………."

"Don't bother," Alicia said. "Knowing Elizabeth, it's probably nothing I want to know." Oliver nodded. "Oliver?"

"Hmm?"

"Just don't break her heart."

"Why would I do that? I love her."

"I know," Alicia said. "That's just it. The last time she was in love, well, you know what happened. I just don't think she can handle it again."

"I know," Oliver said. "But don't worry. I love her, OK?"

Alicia smiled. "She's lucky to have you, Oliver."

Oliver smiled back at her and turned his gaze to Katie. "I love you," he whispered to her, pushing her hair that had fallen down out of her face. "You're so beautiful. I love you so much. Please wake up. If you wake up, I promise never to eat your cookies again. I love you."

Hours passed and Oliver was growing impatient. He was hungry and tired, but was determined for Katie to wake up. There had to be something he could do. "Oliver?" He looked up as Alicia reappeared. "Oliver, you really should go get something to eat, or at least get some rest," she told him. "I'll let you know as soon as she wakes up."

"I can't leave," Oliver protested. "I want to be with her."

Alicia sighed. "Could you at least do me a favor?"

"Sure."

"Can you let her parents know she's here? I know they aren't getting along, and I think it'd be good if they at least knew."

Oliver looked up at her. That was it! The least he could do for Katie was fix things with her parents for her. He nodded and quickly stood. "Make sure you let me know if anything-"

"Don't worry, Oliver," Alicia said calmly. "I'll let you know."

"Thanks, Alicia." He kissed Katie on the forehead and hurried out the door.

"Oliver," Mrs. Bell said, surprised to see him as she opened the door. "What do you want?"

"Mrs. Bell," Oliver said quickly. "Don't be alarmed or anything, but Katie's in the hospital."

"What? What did you do to her?" Mrs. Bell yelled.

"Nothing! I-"

"Haven't you done enough to her?"

"Mrs. Bell, I-"

"Will she be OK?"

"If you'd just let me explain-"

"I said, will she be OK?"

"Yes! She'll be fine! She got hit by a bludger and-"

"Oh dear. Richard!"

Mr. Bell appeared in the doorway. "Oliver," he said bitterly.

"Sir, I-"

"Katie's been hurt!" Mrs. Bell interrupted.

"Is she all right?" Mr. Bell asked. "What did you do to her?"

"I didn't do anything!" Oliver yelled loudly. "She got hit by a bludger. I thought you might like to know, unless you want to accuse her of lying again."

"The only one who's lying is you," Mr. Bell snapped. "Doing that to our daughters. Now, they won't even speak."

"That's because Elizabeth is lying to you!" Oliver yelled. "I would never do that to Katie! I-I love her. Elizabeth tried to kiss me. Katie saw it all and got upset. If anyone's lying, it's your other daughter."

"Neither of our daughters should have anything to do with you," Mrs. Bell said.

"Well I have everything to do with Katie," Oliver said. "But since you obviously don't care that she's hurt, I'll just leave." He turned and left Katie's parents standing in the doorway.

"Any sign of waking up?" Oliver asked Alicia as he hurried back into Katie's hospital room.

Alicia shook her head. "No. Are her parents OK?"

"I think they're perfectly fine," Oliver muttered bitterly. Alicia looked at him, confused and he sighed. "They're really pissed. I don't see how they can't realize that Elizabeth is lying to them. Can't they see how horrible she is to Katie?"

"Elizabeth has always been like that, as long as I can remember," Alicia said. "She's one of those sister's who has to be the best and has to have everything. For a while, everything was OK between them, but now that Katie's become famous and everything, Elizabeth's trying to sabotage it all."

"But why?" Oliver asked. "Why is she trying to take away all of Katie's happiness?"

"Exactly," Alicia said, causing Oliver to give her a confused look. "That's why she's doing it. Because Katie's happy. Before, she never was really happy with her life. I can't believe everything that happened with Roger. No wonder she was afraid to date anyone. And her job at the Prophet was suitable, but it wasn't something she loved. Now, look at her. When she smiles, you can just tell how happy she is. She's absolutely glowing. Well, not now, obviously, but you know what I mean. I've never seen her this happy before."

"But, it's Elizabeth's own fault if she's not happy," Oliver said.

"Don't you see, Oliver?" Alicia asked. "Elizabeth desperately wants a life like Katie's now. She's never been this horrible to Katie, because Katie's life wasn't very glamorous. Now, Katie's happy and Elizabeth can see that and she wants a great life as well. Now that Katie's found her place, she wants her own too. And that's exactly why she tried to get to you. She realized that until you came along, Katie's life wasn't much. And now that Katie has you, she's got one of the greatest lives imaginable."

"But Elizabeth can find someone actually worth dating," Oliver said. "I mean, if she loses her bitchy side."

"I know," Alicia agreed. "She's the only one who doesn't realize it." The sound of Katie shifting around made them both jump and quickly jerk their heads toward the bed. Katie inhaled sharply and her eyes shot open.

"Katie," Oliver breathed, taking her hand.

"Am I dead?" Katie mumbled. Oliver laughed.

"No, you're very much alive," he said. "You just had a slight accident."

"Katie, can you hear me all right?" Alicia asked.

"Hey, Licia," Katie mumbled. "Yes, I can hear you."

"Are you experiencing any pain?"

"Besides my throbbing headache? No."

"Ok, I'll get you some potion for your head," Alicia said, exiting the room.

"How do you feel?" Oliver asked softly.

"Like I've been trampled by a damn Hippogriff," Katie muttered dully. Oliver smiled and pushed her hair out of her face.

"Would you feel better with a box of cookies?" he asked. She shook her head.

"I just want to go home," she said. He nodded as Alicia returned and handed her some potion.

"Better?" Oliver asked. She nodded.

"Can I leave?" she asked.

Alicia laughed. "Sorry, Kate," she said. "Not after a bludger accident. You'll have to stay overnight."

"What time is it?"

"Almost 8," Alicia replied. "Do you want some sleeping potion?"

"No," Katie replied, shaking her head. "Not yet, at least."

"OK, I have to go check on a couple other people," Alicia said. "Oliver, you'll have to be out of here by ten. I'll be back in a while."

"Do you want me to get you anything?" Oliver asked as Alicia left.

"Yeah, you can get me out of here," Katie said.

"Sorry," Oliver laughed. "That wouldn't be safe."

"Jerk," Katie muttered. Oliver smiled.

"You'll be out of here tomorrow," he told her. "Then we can go home."

"Katie!"

They both looked towards the door as Fred, George, and Angelina made their way into the room. "Who let you guys in here?" Katie whined. "I'll have to have a word with the people at the front desk."

"Licia told us what happened," Angelina said. "How are you feeling?"

"Like crap," Katie replied.

"Aw, cheer up Katie!" Fred said. "Do you want us to go get some booze?"

"I highly doubt it's a good idea to bring booze into a hospital," Angelina said, disapprovingly.

"I'm sure Alicia can pull it off," Fred said. "Come on, George, pull some strings with her."

"She'd kick my arse," George said. "Wood, how are you?"

"I'm doing fine, Weasley," Oliver replied. "But I'll feel better when Katie gets out of here."

"Licia told us about how you ran all that way," George said. "You know, that's not healthy."

"Dearest brother, have you forgotten that Ollie is a pro quidditch player?" Fred asked. "He can do whatever he wishes."

"I suppose you're right," George said. "And we all know that he'd do-"

"Simply anything-"

"-For his dearest Katie."

"Will you two stop finishing each other's sentences?" Angelina snapped. "Why must I be stuck with the two of you?"

"Because-" George started.

"-You married me," Fred finished.

"And don't I regret it," Angelina sighed.

"Oh, now-"

"-We know-"

"-You don't-"

"-Mean that."

Angelina rolled her eyes. There was a loud knock on the door. It cracked open and Mrs. Bell appeared. "Are we interrupting anything?" she asked.

"Oh, ah, no," George said. "We'll just be going."

"We'll sneak in the booze later," Fred whispered, winking at Katie. They left, leaving the room deathly quiet.

"Stay here," Katie whispered, grabbing Oliver's arm as he moved to leave too. Mr. and Mrs. Bell stepped into the room.

"How are you feeling?" Mrs. Bell asked.

"Just fine," Katie answered stiffly, still clutching Oliver's arm.

"We really need to talk," Mrs. Bell started.

"About what?" Katie snapped. "About how you won't believe your own daughter?"

"Katie, just listen-"

"No, you listen, Mom," Katie said. "I've spent my entire life putting up with Elizabeth. I've let her manipulate the two of you into turning against me. I've let her get her own way ever since I was a child. But, I'm 22 years-old now and I'm no longer going to put up with it. I've grown up now and have a life of my own."

"Katherine, first of all, we owe you an apology," Mrs. Bell said. "After Oliver came to see us, we realized that maybe you were right and that Liz was the one that was lying." Katie looked at Oliver who merely shrugged. "And now that I think about it, it does seem Elizabeth's the one who always seemed to have her way. And, she has had a lot of boyfriends that didn't turn out and hasn't been able to keep the same job for over a year."

"Oh, you're just realizing that now?" Katie muttered sarcastically.

"Look, Katie, we're sorry. We love you very much. We told Elizabeth that she's not to bother with us until she can establish a life for herself."

"So you think she's actually going to?"

"Yes, I am."

Everyone looked up as Elizabeth strode into the room. "Oh great," Katie muttered under her breath.

"Katie, I really do owe you an apology," Elizabeth said, sitting on the edge of the bed. "But, you were right, I was just so jealous. I mean, look at you. You're smart, beautiful, famous."

"Yeah, sure," Katie muttered.

"I'm being serious," Elizabeth said. "I got so jealous. You're my little sister and I got mad because you're younger, but you have a life. You've got a real job, a real boyfriend, I mean, I've never even been in love now that I think about it. It just seemed like you had everything, and I wanted that too. I wanted to have everything."

"Well since I have everything, you could've asked and I would have given you some," Katie muttered sarcastically.

"You know what I mean," Elizabeth said. "I just wanted to be the one with the great life."

"You can have a great life," Katie said. "You just have to try a little, Liz."

"I know," Elizabeth said. "That's why I've got a job at the Ministry. Mom put a word in for me." Katie smiled.

"That's great," she said.

"And, Oliver, I owe you an apology too," Elizabeth said. "I acted like a dirty little slut which truthfully, isn't me. I'm really sorry, but I'm really glad to see how faithful you are to my sister."She turned to Katie. "Katie, I'm your older sister, but I haven't acted like it at all. Starting now, things are going to be different. I'm going to act like a real sister to you." She smiled and hugged Katie. "And get well soon. God, your hair looks awful. I'm going to get you a brush." Katie laughed.

"Thanks," she said. "Really, thanks."

"You're my sister," Elizabeth said. "I love you and I'm supposed to act like one too."

(Wow, my fingers are cramped. How was it? And for those of you who are pessimists, don't worry, Elizabeth really is being apologetic. I'll start working on the next chapter ASAP. Thanks and review!)
