CHAPTER 9 – That's Entertainment
With that Oliver kicked the chair and let Fred fall as he walked out of the room accompanied by Harry…
In the other room Harry was in a state of hysteria because he was out of the loop and had no idea what was going on.
"Katie is the girl I fancy, and I'm not sure what to do about it?" Oliver said looking down at the ground.
Harry stopped going crazy for two seconds to hear what Oliver had said.
"I can't help ya there mate because I have girl problems too," he said.
He gave Oliver a grave stare and went back into the kitchen where everyone had already started to eat. Oliver watched Harry go back. He braved it up and walked back into the kitchen, as well.
There was only one seat left at the table that had been made longer by Mrs. Weasley to accompany all of the guests.
Oliver took the last remaining seat at the table which was coincidentally right between Fred and George. On the opposite side Katie was sitting down chomping on some of her food.
He smiled as he sat down and put food on his plate. He looked down the rest of the table and saw a few of the order near the other side of the table.
He started to eat as he listened to the conversation taking place around him.
"So how's your guys business going?" Alicia asked Fred and George.
"I tell you ever day its going great, Alicia!" Fred said.
"Yes, but I mean I always need to know!" Alicia said.
Fred laughed and threw a piece of food at Alicia.
Oliver saw that Katie was trying to make eye contact with him, and put his head down and ate some more.
"So Oliver what are you doing next week?" she asked.
He looked from his food to Katie and back down towards his food.
"I'm not sure yet, but probably moving my stuff to the Weasley's new house, and preparing my lessons for teaching," he said.
Katie gave a weird look and asked what he needed to prepare for teaching.
"I'm the new flying teacher at Hogwarts," Oliver said.
Angelina and Alicia looked at Oliver as well as did Katie.
"No one told us you were working there," they said in unison
Oliver blushed slightly and shrugged his shoulders. He wasn't sure how to answer that. He just ignored what they said pretending he hadn't heard it.
After everyone was done eating the adults got up and left the room. Harry, Ron, and Hermione left and went up stairs to start packing.
"We should probably start getting packed, as well," the twins said to Oliver.
Fred, George, Alicia, and Angelina all headed up to their rooms leaving Katie and Oliver alone, once more.
"Well I need to pack you want to help?" he asked her.
She smiled and shook her head yes. He led the way up to the room he was sharing with Charlie. Since Charlie wasn't there he let Katie sit on his bed as he started to pack.
"So you're going to be working at Hogwarts?" she asked.
He looked up at her and smiled.
"Yes I am," he said laughing.
She smiled because he was smiling and they just kept smiling and looking at each other. It was odd but neither stopped looking at the other.
"So do you think you'd want to maybe go have dinner next week?" she asked him.
He kept his eyes locked with hers.
"I'd love to," he said.
Katie helped Oliver pack the rest of his stuff and bring it down to the hallway by the door. Everyone else seemed to be packing or out.
"I have to go take care of my sister now," Katie said.
"Can I come too," Oliver asked shyly.
The two went to pick up Katie's younger sister Felicity from her friends house, and ended up at the flat that used to belong to Katie's parents.
Felicity went straight to her room leaving Oliver and Katie alone.
Since Katie had a muggle born father they had some of the basic muggle necessities. She had a Television, record player, microwave, and some other muggle inventions.
"What's that?" Oliver asked pointing at the television.
"It's muggle entertainment to say the least," She said smiling.
She signaled for Oliver to sit down on the couch. He sat down and she sat next to him. Taking the remote she turned the TV on and turned it to England playing Ireland in a FIFA world cup qualifying game.
Oliver was amazed at the muggle form of entertainment.
"What's this called?" he asked her.
Katie couldn't help but laugh at how Oliver was so into knowing about the muggle device.
"It's called a television and we're watching a soccer game which is a muggle sport," she said.
They sat together for awhile watching. Oliver was more interested in looking at Katie watching the television then watching it himself.
"Did I tell you that I liked you Katie," he asked after ten straight minutes of starting at her.
"No you didn't, but I'm glad you did because I do indeed like you too," she said back to him.
Oliver grabbed Katie and scooted her over towards him. He wrapped his arms around her and rested his chin on her head.
They turned the television off, and started to talk.
"So your parents left after they split leaving you with Felicity?" he asked.
Katie went into in-depth detail of all the events that had taken place.
"You're not scared to be on your own?" he asked.
"I am and I'm not going to lie and say it's not hard, but I just have to suck it up and deal with it," she said.
Oliver gave her a big long hug.
"I'm going to see if Mrs. Weasley will let you stay in my little nook of the house," he said.
"No you shouldn't, I mean what about Felicity?" she asked.
Oliver thought about it for a few.
"I've been thinking actually Katie. I'd really love it for you to be my girl friend, and I've wanted that for a really long time. It can all work out," he said.
He paused for a few to let it sink in to Katie. Then he went on.
"We can move all our necessary stuff into the nook, and there's and extra section in my side of the house that Felicity can have. We can sell both of our flats and we can put the money into gringotts. And I know you're not going to want to have trouble for Mrs. Weasley so we can pay rent for our part of the house."
Katie smiled. "You're really thought this out haven't you, Oliver?" she asked him.
Oliver shook his head.
"Well then Yes I will be your girlfriend and if it's alright with Mrs. Weasley then we shall stay with you," she said.
Katie hugged Oliver as tight as she could. Coming out of the hug Oliver looked down at Katie and gave her a kiss on the lips.
"I liked that," Katie said.
"I liked that too," Oliver said.
The two started to snog and sat back down on the couch. They soon lost track of time, and were cuddling when Felicity came into the room.
"Now that's entertainment!" she said giggling.
"Felicity Ann Bell how long have you been watching us?" Katie scolded.
"Long enough to like Oliver's plan and see you snog your brains out!" She said laughing.
Katie started to chase Felicity around the house.
"Ladies ladies please please calm down!" Oliver said trying to stop the chaos going on.
"SHUT IT!" the girls said chasing each other.
Oliver sat down on the couch watching Felicity and Katie tickling each other on the ground. They soon stopped and got up looking at Oliver sitting down on the couch.
"I think Felicity was wrong because THAT WAS ENTERTAINMENT!" he said laughing.
Felicity and Katie looked at each other with a sly look in there eyes.
The two soon pounced on Oliver and tickled him.
"AHHA AHHHAA STOP!" he exclaimed.
After a few minutes of tickling him to death the two stopped, and got off of him.
Getting up Oliver sighed looking up at the clock.
"Its past ten I should be getting back," he said.
"Ahh but I don't want him to go Katie!" Felicity said.
Looking down at Felicity, Katie told her to go get ready for bed.
After making sure Felicity had gone to her room, Katie came back to where Oliver was standing with his arms crossed.
"I'll talk to Mrs. Weasley tomorrow and come by tomorrow night maybe if that's alright," he said.
Katie shook her head signaling it's alright. She walked over to him and crossed her arms. Oliver wrapped his arms around her and brought her into a hug.
Katie uncrossed her arms and put them around his neck.
Oliver kissed her good night and they said there goodbyes.
"Apparate safely!" Katie said jokingly.
"Alright I'll make sure to splinch!" Oliver said winking.
Saying one final goodnight, Oliver disaparated.
