Chapter 6: Bitterness
School had started again. Katie made her way to the train where she was nearly bowled over by Fred and George. "Well boys since you nearly knocked me over I think it is fair that you help me with my trunk."
Fred grinned at her; he was only distinguishable by the one whirl on the back of his head. George on the other hand had two whirls. Taking her trunk, Fred bowed, "My lady. Let us escort you aboard." George took her arm and led her into a cabin, where Alicia lounged. Angelina followed it and Oliver followed them.
Angelina pulled Alicia aside, "We need to talk. Roger is bisexual and I am afraid Katie is going to go at it again, but on a lighter note Oliver is in love with her."
Alicia gasped and then whispered back, "Did she end it with Roger?"
Katie looked over at them, "Can we stop whispering about me. I mean I will tell you whatever you want to know."
Just then Roger came through the door, "Babe, can we talk. About the other day, it was not the way it looked."
Then Fred and George stood up and said, "Don't talk to her that way."
Just to add to the confusion Oliver had to throw in his two cents, "Don't call her babe, it isn't your right."
Katie stood up and grabbed Roger's arm, "This better be good Rog." Then she turned to the others, "If I am not back in five minute come after me guys."
They all nodded and sat down as Katie walked out of the room dragging Oliver. Fred, George and Oliver all started to whisper about how they were planning to kill Roger. Then Oliver told them of how he kissed Katie and how she had run away. Angelina and Alicia looked up and then at one another.
"Oliver, she used to love you but that passed." Angelina said looking to Alicia for reassurance at saying that.
Oliver looked at them in astonishment, "Why did I never know?"
"Ollie, maybe you were too oblivious to see the truth when it was right in your face." Alicia said to Oliver with regret on her face. "When you didn't visit her in the hospital she decide it was more of a brotherly love, than the love she thought she felt for you."
"But I was in love with her then; I just realized it when she got really sick. I felt like it was me that was dying." Oliver said full of distress, as the news hit him full on.
"She liked you since second years and was president of your fan-club then after her accident she resigned." Angelina said, while Fred and George nodded in the background.
"Roger what is so damn fired important that you had to drag me out of my cabin for?" Katie said rather peeved that Roger even had the nerve to talk to her.
"Well, Katie, I want us to go out in despite of what you saw. It wasn't what you thought was happening."
"Your bisexual Roger, there is nothing to it. Why would I want to go out with some bisexual son of a bitch like you? I mean Rog that totally killed whatever I felt for you, and that was a lot because I though I loved you." Katie said as she looked at him. "Then again I guess that I am not the best at love." She said right before she walked out of the compartment they were in. "It's is over!" Was all that was said as she left the compartment.
"I don't know why that bastard had the guts to talk to me? Look at what he has done to me." Katie yelled at her companions.
Fred and George grabbed her arms and pulled her into a seat, "Katie, if he talks to you like that again just let us take car of us." George said, taking one hand.
"Yes, Katie we will take care of everything," said Oliver sitting down and taking her other hand ignoring Katie's attempts to pull it away.
Leaning over she whispered in her ear, "This is coming from a guy who tried to kiss me without consent."
He whispered back, "About that, we need to talk." Standing up he swiftly pulled Katie from the compartment.
"Maybe, he is going to tell her," Angelina said out loud.
"Nah, he's a coward," said Fred as he moved over to sit by her.
Just then Alicia noticed a piece of paper with Katie's name on it and she opened it to read. Quickly scanning it she handed it to Angelina and said, "Someone is after Katie, this isn't her handwriting.
The poem read:
Another
day of sadness
Another day of pain
It seems like I'm
constantly
In a cloud of rain
I've tried so hard
And
given it my all
And no matter what
In the end I fall
Every
Day
My wanting to live grows thin
There's just no possible
way
That I will ever win
The longer I live
The more I
get stressed
The more I try to be happy
The more I get
depressed
Please try and understand
I did not mean for
things to end this way
I just cant stand living like this
For
one more day
So all I can do
Is hope and pray
That
sometime soon
Will be my last day
"Oh my, this isn't good at all. I hope this isn't going to start what I think it will, we better destroy it." Angelina said as she lit the paper on fire with her wand.
The poem is by someone by Katherine, my friend found it for me. Well I hope you all like this chapter.
