Chapter 22 – Awoken spirit senses

FRED'S POINT OF VIEW

"I don't feel…." Katie whispered. She collapsed into my arms. I looked at her gob smacked. I could hear someone calling out to her from a distance it steadily grew louder.

"Katie!" I held her shoulders, as she lay limp in my arms. 'What happened! Oh I am so going to kill who ever done this to her. Let's just hope she's just exhausted today'

I looked up and saw Oliver running towards us, his pant's were wet up to the knee and…is that…oh my god why is her lipstick smudged!'

I looked down at Katie, she was steadily losing colour. 'No, it…Oliver wouldn't…. Oh my god!' I looked between the 4 people around me.

'Oh no. George' I looked towards my twin, the colour had drained from his face and his hands were clenched, his knuckles were going white.

Oliver came to stand in front of us. Looking at Katie with unshed tears.

"Here, I'll carry her to the Hospital wing, you go get Madam Pomfrey" Oliver said sternly, reaching out to Katie. I pulled her away from his grasp.

"Come on Fred! There is no time for this!" Oliver said angrily snatching at her again. I pulled her up and held her limp body in my arms.

"George, let's go," I said getting George's attention. We began retreating back towards the castle.

George stopped for a second and looked at the pair. "By the way Alicia, we're over" He said calmly, though I could tell by his expression his heart was breaking.

"I heard it!" Katie's voice rang in my ears. I snapped my head to look down at her.

BACK TO KATIE'S POINT OF VIEW

"I heard it!" I gasped. My eyes shot open and I looked around me. Fred was carrying me. I slowly got down from his arms and went over to George.

I stood in front of him looking up into his face; he slowly lifted his head in time for me to see as a single teardrop fell from his eyes. My heart retched for him…..and me.

I came up to him and wrapped my arms around his neck. I closed my eyes and whispered to him "Cry to your hearts content…. for both of us" His teardrop fell onto my cheek just below my left eye. He leant his head down gently to lean it against the crook of my neck.

My skin began to radiate warm light, my whole body reacting to George's single tear as my wings spread from my upper back.

My soft feathery wings spread out behind me as I leaned back looking into George's eyes. I smiled up at him and he smiled back.

A circle of light shone around us, I leaned towards George "Cry each tear, let your emotions go. You will be happy again, I promise" I whispered. He held onto to me tighter as I did to him.

I gently kissed him on the lips; air came from the ground lifting us, to hover over the ground.

My wings flapped drizzling sprinkles of light on us, as our lips broke apart. My voice was softly reiterating, "Happiness is a virtue" until we slowly touched ground.

I slowly fell to my knees and leaned over holding myself up, George was standing in front of me with the biggest smile on his face.

My wings flapped a large gust and a shimmering dust fell onto us once more.

I looked up at George, tears streaming down my face. "I heard your heart break…." I squeakd through my tears, I stood up on my feet.

I turned my head and looked at Oliver and Alicia "I hope it was just my eyes deceiving me," I whispered. I grabbed George's hand and walked over to Fred, I took his hand in mine and we ran back to our common room as my wings faded away.

When we finally made it back to the common room, I saw Wendy and Angelina talking. I gestured for Fred and George to go to sleep because it was getting late. They nodded their heads obligingly and ascended the stairs.

I looked at Angelina and Wendy; Angelina grabbed my hand looking into my eyes questioningly. I wiped a stray tear from my eye and began reciting the day's events.

"….And I grabbed George's and Fred's hand and left" I finished. Angelina looked grave and Wendy looked torn between excitement and sympathy for me.

"Well, I'm really tired so I'm going to go up to sleep" I said while getting up.

Just as I was leaving Wendy reached out to grab my hand. "I'm sorry," She said.

I nodded my head, hearing the common room door open. I snapped my head towards the common room door looking at the pair before me.

Oliver and Alicia were standing there watching me. I quickly turned around and waved goodnight to Wendy and Angelina and went off to sleep.

I ran up the stairs 2 at a time, pushing the door open once getting there. I changed quickly and climbed into my bed pulling my drapes closed. I lay my head on my pillow closing my eyes, I whispered to the darkness "Happiness is a virtue, it's my virtue" as a single tear glided down my cheek, as I smiled to myself before falling to sleep.

In the distance I could hear yelling and screaming but it was drowned out in my sleep.

Bet you didn't see that coming! I know it sounds really far fetched but nobody else thought of it so hell why not? By the way sorry if at some stages if my stories don't make sense, I'm sorry I just get so caught up in writing that I don't realize it. 

This one is considerably shorter. Sorry peoples. But I hoped you like it anyway! Please R&R
