The Life After
Chapter 2
My New Roommate
I walked onto the train, put my trunk away, and found me a compartment. I took out a piece of parchment and started writing a letter to Angelina to see if I could stay with her.
When I let Lane (My Owl) out to send the letter, I left the compartment to find my friends.I looked everywhere and every friend I saw had a full compartment, so I didn't want to interuppt them. Finally, I gave up and went back to my compartment. When I got there, someone was sitting in it. Draco Malfoy. "Get Out." I said in a very low voice. "Why should I?" he said. He is so dead. I looked up at my trunk to see that one of the latches were open. I distictly remember latching all of the latches. That must mean one thing. "What did you do?" I said, My arms crossing and my leg blocking their way out. "Nothing." Draco said while ready to panic. I raised an eyebrow at him while he stared at me. I didn't want him going through my trunk if it was the last thing he did. I ran up to him and pushed him against the window. "Tell Me NOW..." I said. This is going to be good. "What did you do?" I repeated. My patience wall just fell. I slapped him and he slapped me back and I lost grip. He kissed me on the lip and ran. OH NO YOU DIDN'T! I thought. I turned around and ran towards the way he left. "Get back here!" I stopped running and went back to my compartment hoping no one was in it. Luckily, there wasn't. I grabbed my water and gulped it down. I shuddered. He may be hot, but he is a big jerk. I changed and laid down. The world got darker and darker until it was completely dark.
I woke up to a long sqeak. I sat up, straighted my hair, and stood up.
We were there.
I walked off the train and sat down on the nearest, empty bench. I sat and waited for Lane to get back. I finally saw a white and brown thing coming toward me. It kept flying until it hit me. I unrapped the letter that was tied to its leg and read:
Dear Katie,
I would love for you to stay for a couple of days! We live in the mansion on Jinchie Road. If you need directions then just owl me. I'm sure you know where it is though. Me and Fred have been married for 5 months now. Its sad you missed the wedding. I have more bad news. Alica and Lee Jordan are married too, but George is dating still. Man, you missed alot. Well, I gotta get back to the closet winks. Bye!
Lot Of Luv!
Angelina
I still had my eyes on the paper as I read "Mansion on Jinchie Road". Jinchie Road, Jinchie Road...hm... I thought, Man, where is-- OH...MY...GOD! The Helen Mansion? That is one big house! Oh YEAH! I get to stay in a big house, I get to stay in a big house! I thought this while moving my hand in circular motions.
----------------------------
I had left for the Helen Mansion. Oh, sorry the 'Weasley Mansion'. I cant WAIT! Wait a minute. I stopped walking and pulled out the letter. Fred...Lee...Alica...Oh, here we go! George is dating...I wonder who.
I kept walking until I reached the mansion.
DING DONG!
"Hi!" I said. Angelina smiled and hugged me without saying anything. "I will take that as a 'Hello.'" I said as we walked upstairs and into the guest room. I put my trunk on my bed and turned around to see Angelina still smiling. "What?" I said immitating her smile. "Oh, nothing. I just invited the old Quidditch team over. Hey, do you still have that crush on Oliver?" she said losing her smile and putting one hand on her hip and one hand pointing at me. "What do you think? Its been four years since I've seen him and what do I know about him?Squat." as I said this I felt my heart saying somthing so I decided to mentally talk to it(AN: Italics is her mind bold is her heart.)You BIG...FAT...LIAR(AN:Well geesh her heart is really mean!)Why didn't you tell her?Beacause She and I dont have much in our friendship left! Its been at least 3 years since I'v seen her she probably doesnt even remember a whole lot about me anyways. SO! Why dont you test her out tonight. See if she does still know you.
"Oh."she continued, "Well, thats good 'cause we dont know where he lives so we couldn't invite him." she finished. I nodded and heard another ding dong. "Oh! That must be Alica and Lee!" she opened the door and let them in. We all hugged, well at least me, Lee, and Alica. We all went into the living room and sat down.
DING DONG!
I swear, thats starting to get annoying. I thought as Angelina ran to the door. That must me George and his girl. As soon as I thought that George and a black- haired girl walked in. She was verry pretty.She had her long, black hair put back in a bun and was very thin. she was wearing a pink tank-top with a jean jacket on top, and blue jeans with pink converses. I personally liked her style. "Hi!" I said as they sat down. "Hey, the girl said. as so did George. For some odd reason, we started staring at each other. George noticed this. "Oh, Katie this is Kelly, Kelly Lane and Kelly this is Katie Bell.". We broke our stare and stared at the tea Angelina had given us.
We talked for a while when Alica had brought up the subject. Oliver Wood. "So, you've heard of him, Kelly?" Alica said to Kelly, who nodded. "How?" I said though I knew the answer. "Well, first of all I know him from school and I know him now because he is a famous Quidditch player." she said to me. "You went to Hogwarts?" I said. "Yea...I don't know if you remember I had to be sorted with the first years because my I was transferred for Beauxbaton's and began in my third year." she explained. I felt horrible. What if this girl doesn't like me. Will George not like me if she doesn't like me? I thought. "Oh yeah!" I said. I still had no clue who she was. She smiled at me and said, " I was one of the Ravenclaw chasers?" she said I smiled and said that I said I remembered who she was. She rolled her eyes, still smiling. George bent over and kissed her on the cheek. My smile grew wider. I was happy for them. George found himself a nice girl.
I finally became night when I learned that everybody was sleeping over. I would have to share a room with Kelly since Fred, George, and Lee were sharing and Alica and Angelina were sharing.
Kelly and I were changing and when we both walked out she was wearing a black tank-top with bronze shorts as I was wearing a red tank-top and gold shorts. We giggled and sat down in one of the two beds(Angelina took out the double bed and put in two singles.).
"You know I dont care If you don't remember me. I wasn't that famous anyway." Kelly said forming a smile. I opened my mouth to talk but just closed it back again. She had caught me. I dont know who she is and where she came from but shes really cool.
We talked longer and got to know each other quite well, then Kelly went and laid down in her bed. I was half-asleep when she spoke, "Do you like Oliver? she said. Should I tell her? I thought so hard for so long that finally she spoke up again, "Do you like Oliver?" she repeated. "Yes." I sat up and started speaking again. "Are you going to tell Angelina and Alica? 'Cause I dont want them to know."
Why? she said.
"Because" as I said this, Kelly sat up.
"Why? I mean, there your best friends. Shouldn't they deserve to know?"
"Well, I haven't seen them for years and they barely know anything about me now."
"Why do you say that?"
"Because at dinner, They talked about Oliver. they know I dont like to talk about Oliver." I sighed.
She looked at me like Crabbe and Goyle did when I hit Draco, but with a much prettier face.
"Hows it like dating George?"I said.
"Fun, romantic,sweet, busy." she said
"Why busy?" I questioned.
"Well, The Weasley Wizard Weezes are selling fast and He has to be their 24-7."
"Oh." I said.
We laid our heads back on our pillows and went to sleep.
--------------------------
The next morning I was the first one up. I got up and went to the kitchen to make some coffee. I made some toast and went to the living room with the food. I sat down on the couch turned on the 60'' TV and turned it to the muggle news. "Eh. This is boring." I said to myself while turning it again to 'Music Videos' on VH1(Im an American!). The song that was playing was, 'Call Me When Your Sober' By Evanescence. "Thats a good song" someone said, I turned my head to see who it was but no one was there. "Yeah." I responded. Kelly came out from the corner and smiled. "Morning" she said. I nodded and turned my head. Kelly walked into the kitchen and took out a pan. She turned the oven on and took out the milk, pancake mix, a bowl, and one egg. She poured the pancake mix in the bowl, cracked the egg, poured the yolk in the bowl and pour some milk in and started mixing. "I'm guessing your making pancakes?" I said. "Yep! It's my specialty." she responded. "What the cooking or the pancakes?" I joked still watching the videos. "Both."
"I smell something good!" a voice called from afar. One of the Weasley twins! I thought.
And sure enough, Fred Weasley came running into the kitchen.
"How can you? I haven't even started the cooking." Kelly said.
"It doesn't have to be food." he protested.
Kelly poured the batter onto the pan and the smell of pancakes filled the room.
"Ahhh..." Fred sniffed the air and continued to talk.
"Do you do this every morning?" he said.
"Yep." she said.
"And do you do that every morning of your vacations?" he said pointing at me.
"Yeah, pretty much."
We all laughed. "If you do this everymorning I gotta make you my sister-in-law. George!" he yelled walking towards one of the Guest rooms. He turned around and walked back towards the kitchen. "Why? What does Anges do in the morning?" I said now picking up a magazine and reading it. "She orders pizza. Sad, I know." he said frowning. "Oh, you have to get tired of pizza." Kelly said. "Oh, I do but its better than her cooking." he responded
We all nodded and went back to what we were doing.
"Go wake the others Fred. The food is ready."
"Great, I get stuck with the dirty job." he said while walking out of the room.
Me and Kelly laughed.
Five minutes later, we heard a scream. Alica. We both ran upstairs. We walked into the room that Alica was in and noticed there was Fred,standing in the doorway, pale. Alica in the bed with Lee Jordan. Naked. This all leads to one thing.
"WHAT? What happened?" Angelina came bursting in the room, to a slight suprise, did the same thing Fred did. "Fred you might wanna leave." Kelly said. Fred turned around, and started walking fast, fast out of that room. Kelly did the same, but still her normal skin tone. She ran to see if George was awake, opened the door, looked in, walked in and closed the door. I heard the door lock switch. Please tell me their not going to do the same thing. I thought. I turned to see everybody still standing there. Silent. Anyone wanna break the silence. Oh well, Alica is about to speak. "Get out please." she said in a low tone. Me and Angelina looked at each other, ran out and shut the door. We heard click-click on the lock and looked at each other again and sighed. Angelina went to her room where Fred was and repeated what Kelly did. I looked at all three doors and sighed again. I turned to walk downstairs and reached the third to last step and sat down. a cat appeared out of nowhere and sat down on my lap. I started to pet it. I was used to this, being all alone while my friends went and snogged each other in schoo. l always ended up with hanging out with someone but I doubt its going to happen today.
DING DONG!
Oh, I didn't know we were having company. Not unless its the pizza man.
I opened the door.
I was speechless. It was the one and only...Oliver Wood.
"Oh, I didn't expect you." he said.
Rude, And why do you love him again? I thought to myself. I let him in. "Where is Angelina and Fred?" he said looking up at the upstairs hall, then looking down at the downstairs hallway. "Um...Upstairs." I responded with my hands on my hips. He turned around to look at me. "Whats wrong with you?" he said. I rolled my eyes and walked off. "You go ahead and go upstairs and try to catch them out of their own orld. If they will even let you in." I yelled to him. Next thing I know, I hear a door slam and A yelp. I giggled. He must of, oh I dont know, went into Alica's room. Woops...I forgot to tell him not to go in the first door. My bad.
I went to the kitchen and grabbed a pancake and sat down. I turned on the kitchen TV and turned it to the wizarding news. "Sirius Black has been spotted around Holyhead. I turned off the TV to the sound of clucking noises. Oliver entered the kitchen and opened the fridge. "What happened to all your manners?" I said to him as he shut the refridgerater door. "They left me while I was on the stairs" he responded. Oh really! I thought that you just were completely rude when I let you in! I coughed. He turned and raised his eybrows. He came to the other side of the table and sat down. He gave me a evil glare and smiled. "I happened to come here because I have put out an ad saying I need a new roommate, and someone has accepted." I spit out the milk that was in my mouth. "You dont happen to live on 766 Aloam Road do you?" I said my eyes wide, wide open. "Uh...Yeah. How did you know that?" he said with one eyebrow raised now. "I uh...accepted." I gave him his answer that he forever wanted. More sarcaism. "WHAT?" he yelled. I am acutally happy. I thought. Well, that answers my question to if my roommate was a nice guy or not. I dont know. Kelly came into the kitchen and screamed. "What do you want?" he yelled at her. He turned his head to see who it was. He stood up as quick as soon as he saw who she was. "Hi." he said. "Oh, so he says hi to you." I said throwing my hands up in the air and leaving. I stopped at the door and turned around. I got perfect veiw of Oliver kissing her hand. George is going to be mad. She pulled her hand from his grip she frowned at him and walked away. "What was that for?" he said. "She has a boyfriend." I said.
"Who?"
"George"
"Oh."
"What did you plan on?"
"Taking her out."
"Oh, really?"
"Yep!"
"Good Luck with that..." I finally finished that annoying conversation.
"Your my new roommate, eh?" he said. "Yea." I said, hoping he wouldn't make a big deal out of it. "So, we should go."
"What?"
"Your my new roomate, so we live together, so we should go."
" But I dont have my money put together!"
"Your my friend, you dont have to pay."
"Really?"
"Yes."
I ran upstairs to get my stuff. I got Halfway down the hall with my trunk when Alica stopped me. "Where are you going?" she said. "Home." I responded. She looked downstairs and Oliver was standing there smiling. "Go get'em" she said.
------------------------
When we got to Oliver's flat we sat down in the living room.
"Sorry that I didn't say hi, its just I really needed to talk to Fred and Angelina." he said. He was pacing in front of his fireplace and it made me nervous. I don't know but it just did. "Why did you need to talk to them so badly?" I wondered. "Oh, It was business. It would be boring to you." he said. I didn't want to fight with him. "Oh, ok." I sighed, laying down on the couch. "Well, why dont I show you to your room?" he said. He lead me to a fairly big room with Red Pillows and White sheets. It had red walls and a nightstand with one white lamp. There was a cute walk-in closet and a small TV. "I like this room. It's comfy, yet not to small." I said dopping my trunk on the floor. "Well, I am glad you like it. Now let me show you to my room." He opened the door to his room for her to see. It was pretty much the same thing but white and choclate brown, and a bigger TV. Not that I cared because there was a 50'' out in the living room. "Well, let me go put my stuff away." I walked out of his room and into mine. I un-latched my trunk and put my stuff in the closet when I was done I had put on day clothes. I put on my solid navy blue t- shirt, and my jean shorts. I was off to live with Oliver Wood.
