Chapter 6
Freedom
Caras POV
Ahem." Charlie jumped and pushed her off him, he looked scared.
"Thanks Charlie glad to see you won't have a problem with what I came here to do, we're finished!" I turned and walked out leaving him in shock.
"Cara, sorry baby, it just happened please believe me, forgive me, baby?"
"I'm so finished with you and your crap, just back off Weasley ok, stay away!" I turned and walked away feeling like a whole weight had been taken off my shoulders. Then finally I made my way to the hospital wing. The rest of the team were already there.
"Hey sis where have you been we've been worried!"
"Talking to Fred, crying to Fred, deciding to break up with Charlie with thanks to Fred, walking to the dressing rooms to see Charlie, seeing Charlie kissing Narcissa Montague, breaking up with Charlie, telling Charlie to leave me alone and then coming to visit Oliver!" woh that was a mouthfull, tee hee the look on their faces! Uh oh the look on Shanes face, he's gonna kill him! He stepped towards me but instead of running out the door he just hugged me.
"Told you you could do way better, sorry you had to find out this way!"
"Ah at least I can turn it on him!"
"True true!" He said as he laughed at me.
"So how's Ol? Will he be ok, I should have come sooner. Way to make an entrance huh!"
"Pomfrey said it might be a while before he wakes up but no permanent damage seems to be done."
"A while, how long is a while?"
"A few days, a few weeks maybe, she doesn't know!"
"Oh my gosh, this is all my fault, I ducked it, it should have hit me!"
"That doesn't make it your fault, it was an accident!" they all agreed.
"Come on Jamie, lets go to dinner." Mark said as he put a brotherly arm around me. Sometimes people call me Lamie, short for Jameson.
"Ok, I'm starving!" So we all headed to the great hall still in our quidditch gear. When we arrived the whole Gryffindor table gave us a huge applause and everyone started asking about Oliver. There was dramatic re-telling of the whole 2 minutes of the match and when anyone asked where Charlie was, the team just grunted and mumbled 'don't care', or something to that effect. Charlie thankfully wasn't brave enough to show his face at dinner so I enjoyed myself instead.
One Week Later
I managed to avoid Charlie for the last week, aswell as his letters, flowers and chocolates. He also had been trying to catch me on my own but thankfully my friends were super and made sure I wasn't left on my own. Rumours were flying through the school about what had happened. The Weasley twins started a few of their own, which made Charlie and Narcissa out to be evil and me of course, a little angel! 'Ting' (my halo ting!) Oliver still hadn't woken up but since yesterday he had been saying really funny things in his sleep. It started out with things like 'mops the bluebirds web' then he started trying to talk to me, which was a good thing because he knew I was there but I couldn't understand him, it sounded like 'Jamiee meoollluuuovelluuuuuudotoboomee. I had to giggle at him, it was funny watching him google like a baby! I am sitting in the hospital wing now and he is still conked!
"booteevulmacaroon toon" he mumbled. I was in convulsions now, tee hee, wish I could tape this and play it to him when he wakes up!
"Cara, go out with me" woh that was clear
"Go out where Ol?" this could be hilarious, "Ol do you like bananas?"
"No Cara shut up I'm talking!" Ha ha ha!
"I can see that Ol!" With that he turned in his sleep towards me and drooled on his pillow. Oh this is better than Jongleurs!(muggle comedy venue) I was gone way too far, clutching my stomach, tears rolling down my face, in absolute hysterics.
"Cara?" I looked up to see Olivers chocolate eyes looking at my funnily. I laughed more!
"Hey, your awake!"
"Am ya, what time is it, did we win?" He sat up straight.
"It's 6:00 on Saturday, and we won." He lay down again.
"So I was only out for a few hours?" I giggled again.
"Not exactly! You've been unconscious for three years, we didn't think you'd ever wake up!" Tee hee I am evil!
"What your kidding!" He shouted as he jumped up again
"Ya I'm kidding, it was a week ago!" The tears were rolling again.
"Ha the look on your face Ol!"
"Merlin you gave me such a fright! Hey wait a minute, what are you doing here? I mean where's Charlie?"
"Ah the beloved Charlie and I are no more!"
"So you've got your freedom back then! What happened, what did he do?" So I told him what happened and every detail he missed for the week.
"Woh a lot happens in a week!" Madame Pomfrey noticed he was awake and took to torchering him with tests, so I left them to it!
"Bye Ol, see you tomorrow!" tee hee hee better head to dinner. So I made my way to the Great Hall and let the world know 'the keeper is alive' (in a 'The king is Alive type of tone!) They cheered and I got a glare/upset puppy look from Charlie, and you know what, it didn't effect me at all, for once I saw everyone else around me, not just Charlie. Life is good! I got a letter this morning and I get to go to Florida to train, I'm so excited! I can't wait to get back on proper equipment, charming your broom to float in the air isn't exactly the same! It would also be great to get away from all the drama here for a bit. Everything was back to normal here, it was like old times again, except I was happier and older obviously!
Fun Fact: Cara means friend in Irish. An maith leat an sceal seo? Taim ag caint i gaeilge. An dtuigeann aon duine gaeilge, tee hee hee.
