Chapter Nineteen: Waking Up On Christmas Eve
Katie woke up early to see Angelina and Alicia off.
"See ya in a week, Katie." The two girls said, giving her a hug. Katie laughed.
"You're sounding like your boyfriends already." She said as they all hugged.
"Oy, we heard that." The twins said, coming up next to them. Katie shook her head and the three girls un-imbraced. "See you later, Kat." George and Fred said. Katie smiled, and forced a hug out of the two. The train let out a whistle. Katie's four friends stood in front of her.
"We better get going." Alicia said as they all started to turn.
"Oy!" They suddenly heard Oliver yell as he ran toward them. "Sorry, Percy didn't wake me up." He said, sounding out of breath. Alicia and Angelina went over and hugged Oliver before heading onto the train. Fred and George just went over and did the manly-handshake-thing with Oliver.
"Bye, mate." The twins said before getting on the train and heading toward where Angelina and Alicia were.
Oliver and Katie walked through the portrait hole together.
"So, Kates, what do you wanna do now?" Oliver asked. Katie yawned.
"Ol, it's 5:30 in the morning on Christmas Eve. I'm going back to sleep." Katie said, falling onto the couch. Oliver walked over to the other side of the couch.
"Move over, Bell." Oliver said, a smirk playing on his lips. Katie gave a groggy smile, and moved forward so Oliver could lay down with her. Oliver did, and Katie proceeded to fall asleep in his arms.
Katie and Oliver sat in the Great Hall eating lunch a few hours later.
"So, Ol, what are we gonna do for the next week while everyone is gone?" Katie asked, taking a bit of her food. Oliver shrugged.
"I don't know, I think this week might be kinda boring." He said. Katie nodded.
"Damn Boring." She muttered. Oliver shrugged again.
"But you, a week of no twins, no friends, hopefully no drama, could be nice." He said. He would regret his words a second later. Katie furrowed her eyebrows, setting down her fork.
"When was there drama?" She asked. Oliver mentally hit himself in the head.
"Your right, there hasn't been any drama. So what are we going...." Oliver started, hastily trying to change the subject. Katie would have non of it. She cut him off with a shake of her head.
"No, Oliver, when was there drama?" She asked again. Oliver sighed.
"The day we first kissed." He muttered. Katie eye widened.
"What?" She said in a voice that screamed 'What the hell did you say that you prat?!'. Oliver gulped. Lie next time, Wood! He thought to himself Oliver looked down at the table.
"Well, you have to admit, it was a little drama like the day we kissed. I mean, you got mad and..." He started, only to be cut off y Katie again.
"That was not drama, Wood," She snapped. Oliver winced at Katie's use of his last name. "That was you kissing me and then not saying anything!" She practically yelled, still talking low enough so no one heard her. Oliver gulped again.
"Katie, I'm...I mean I.....well you see..." He started. Katie shook her head.
"There he goes again." She muttered to herself before standing up and walking out of the Great Hall. Oliver closed his mouth and shook his head.
"You should have said George and Alicia." He scolded himself.
