Katie went to her classes and glanced at the TA scribbling economics formulas madly on the board and looked back down at her spiral. She closed her eyes and leaned back in her chair rubbing the bridge of her nose. She had an unsettling feeling as she shifted her weight in her chair. When class was dismissed she took her time collecting her writing utensils and slowly packing them into her bag.

"I called you last night, you know? You missed free pizza night. The boys and I missed you, kiddo." A tan guy in a brown blazer said in a disappointed voice as he handed Katie her spiral.

"Yeah, sorry. Just haven't really been myself lately I guess." She brushed her hair from her face and picked up her bag. Her shoulder tensed under the weight.

"Yeah that's what love does to you." He gazed at the attractive economics TA and sighed. "I know what it does to you."

"Oh, not you too." Katie added. The thought of her and Oliver crossed her mind and she shook her head to dispel the thoughts.

"That boy you brought to our last party wouldn't be the reason you've been MIA would it?" He chuckled a little bit nudging Katie. "I mean, when I first met him I knew he was a bad apple… that I have to protect my little Katie!"

"I'm pretty sure you weren't yourself after the first 3 drinks." Katie smiled back at him.

"He's dangerous Katie. I'm straight and I found that boy attractive. He's trouble." He suddenly stopped in his tracks making Katie run into him. "You ARE having Oliver Wood problems aren't you?" He said in an amused voice.

Katie thought about it for a while. "He wants a commitment. I just don't know what I want."

"You realize in boy language that's him cutting out his heart and handing it to you on a platter right? Tell me you're going to talk to him about it… now." He said in disbelief.

"He's waited for 7 years to tell me how he feels. I think he can afford to wait a little longer for me to figure out how I feel." Katie quickened her pace to keep up with his long stride.

"Oh man, oh man, am I glad I'm into brunettes because Katie Bell here will eat your gonads for breakfast." He turned around and made a face at her and continued walking.

"It's just complicated. There's baggage involved. He comes from a different background that I'm not really sure I want to be a part of." Katie mumbled.

"You mean he's like a Mormon?" He asked confused.

"No, not really." Katie shook her head.

"Well whatever that background is… it can't possibly be that bad can it?" He added thoughtfully. "Does he have a prison record and a violent past?"

"No!" Katie said in disbelief.

"A wife and three kids back in Scotland?"

"No." Katie rolled her eyes at him.

"Does he have a small penis?"

Katie instinctively whacked his arm. "I won't even dignify that question with an answer."

"I only said that because if I looked like him, I wouldn't have to study this stuff anymore. I would just walk around all day, not work and just be naked and have women throw themselves at me." He laughed. "Anyway, seriously, save the drama for your girlfriends."

"I don't know what I want though." Katie sighed.

He elbowed her side and said, "You know what you want. Always have and always will."

Katie stopped following him but he continued walking.

"If you know what you want and don't go for it… you really don't deserve it Katie. But you knew that too didn't you." He turned the corner and left her standing in the middle of the hall with a helpless look on her face. She waited for a minute until she felt the corners of her mouth creep up. She ran as fast as she could and caught up with her friend and tossed her bag at him as she ran past him and told him to hold onto it.

She ran down the steps of the subway station and made it just as the doors closed. She placed her forehead on the metal bar and felt her head pounding madly. As soon as the subway reached her stop, Katie shoved her way off the train and starting sprinting up the stairs towards her apartment building across the street. When she entered the building she started taking 2 stairs at a time and finally reached her apartment door. She banged as hard as she could on the door.

No answer.

She tried again.

Still nothing. She suddenly realized she had left her bag and her keys with her friend and she had no way of entering her apartment.

She placed her head against the door and squeezed her eyes shut. She could feel her heart pounding and her hands quivering. She took a deep breath and whispered, "Alohomora."

The door unlocked itself and she closed her eyes.

Oliver stood a few feet from the door in a towel and patches of shaving cream on his face. "I came as soon as I heard. I was in the shower." He made a face and tried to rub the remaining cream from his face. "How did you get in without a key?" Suddenly he understood and smiled to himself.

Katie smiled and ran full speed towards him and kissed him. Before he could respond, she broke the kiss and whispered, "I love you. I love you. I love you."

Oliver picked up the latest issue of Witch Weekly and pointed to the cover with a picture of him with the title, "Hottest Quidditch Singles" and gave her a ridiculous grin.

Katie rolled her eyes.

"Let's prove them wrong, shall we?" he said as he kissed her.

Yay! Done done done! Thanks for all the reviews and support! Cheers.
