Chapter 8

When I woke up, the first thing I noticed was that I was in the Hospital Wing. And that my right hand was warmer then my left. I looked at my hand and saw another hand clasped in mine. I looked up and saw Fred sleeping in the chair next to me. I smiled to myself when I saw that he was still in his Quidditch robes.

"Miss Bell!" a voice exclaimed. I looked up and saw Madam Pomfrey standing there. "How long have you been awake?"

"A few minutes," I replied. "What happened?"

"You got hit in the face with a Quaffle and lost a lot of blood. I gave you a blood replenishing potion, so you'll be good as new," she said. She must have noticed me staring at Fred because she added, "Mr. Weasley refused to leave your side all night."

"I've been here all night?" I exclaimed.

"Yes."

"When can I leave?"

"In a few minutes if everythings alright."

"Ok," I said.

Madam Pomfrey walked away to get whatever she needs to check to see if I'm ok. I sat up and looked at Fred. He was still asleep, looking peaceful. I didn't want to wake him up, but I knew I had to.

I gently poked him with my left hand, my right one still intertwined with his hand. He stirred slightly but didn't wake up.

"Fred," I said, slightly whispering. "Fred you have to wake up."

He opened his eyes and he smiled when he saw that I was awake and alright.

He opened his mouth to say something when Madam Pomfrey came back.

"Mr. Weasley, I see that you're awake," she said. "Can you please wait for Miss Bell outside?"

Fred nodded and left me alone with Madam Pomfrey. Madam Pomfrey checked my blood level and when she was sure I was ok, she finally let me go. I thanked her and walked out of the room and saw Fred standing there.

"Katie I'm so sorry! I didn't mea—" I interrupted him by pressing my lips against his.

He wrapped his arms around my waist and I wrapped my arms around his neck. The kiss was short and sweet. The perfect first kiss.

When we pulled away, Fred was smiling at me. I could feel myself blushing.

"I've always known you've secretly liked me," Fred told me.

"Fred!" I exclaimed.

"What?" He asked faking innocence.

"Just say that you like me," I said.

He looked into my eyes and he said, "I like you."

Hearing him say that, I felt like I was on a cloud. I've always liked Fred, and I've always wished that I could be with him.

"What…what are we going to do now?" I asked.

"Well…we can start dating…if you want that is," Fred added the last part quickly.

"It's what I want."

"It's what I want too," Fred replied. "I've always liked you, Katie."

"I've always liked you too."

Fred smiled at me. I smiled back as we walked towards the Gryffindor common room.

The second we got to the common room, Alicia was at my side, hugging me. I hugged her back, slightly confused why shes freaking out like this.

"Are you okay?" she exclaimed.

"I'm fine Leesh."

She nodded. "I was so worried! I thought you were going to die!"

"I told you she wouldn't," Fred told her.

She stuck her tongue out at him. He laughed and shook his head. We walked over to the couch and I saw Ron and Harry with their friend Hermione. I smiled at them.

A few hours later, Ange, Alicia, and I were up in our room. Ange was in the bathroom, and Alicia was reading a magazine…or so I thought. I was sitting on my bed, when Alicia jumped onto my bed, scaring me.

"What did you do that for?"

"Are you going out with Fred?" She demanded.

"What?" I asked trying to act like I didn't know what she was talking about, but I could feel myself smile and blush.

"You are!" She squealed."When? What happened?"

"I—I kissed him."

"You kissed him?" Alicia asked me in disbelief.

"Yes. He was trying to apologize for yesterday and I—I just kissed him," I admitted. "You can't tell anyone though!"

"Aw!" She squealed. "Now we can go on double dates!"

Ange walked into the room. "Who can go on double dates?"

"Katie and Fred are going out!" Alicia squealed.

I saw Ange look at me, hurt going into her eyes. I totally forgot that she went out with Fred last year.

"Ange...I'm sorry…" I said.

"It's fine," she snapped. "I'm over him anyways. I love Oliver."

Alicia and I watched her as she walked out of the room. Then I looked over at Alicia and grabbed a pillow and hit her.

"Ow!" Alicia exclaimed. "What was that for?"

"You weren't supposed to tell anyone!"

"Sorry," Alicia said. "It slipped out."
