Disclaimer: We own nothing
47. Oliver Wood
"Oliver?!" I hear Katie yell outside of the locker room. "You in there?"
I walk outside. I guess the rain had gone away. Why couldn't the weather be like this for the game a couple of hours ago? The air was somewhat still a little chilly from the rain. But other than that, it was perfect outside. But the weather conditions didn't matter. A loss was a loss.
"Thank Merlin you're okay. We were wondering why you weren't up in the infirmary seeing how Harry was. Fred and George said you might be possibly drowning yourself in the showers. I knew they were joking, but I just wanted to see if you're okay." Katie tells me.
"Might as well drown myself in the showers. That's it. We have no chances of winning the cup this year." I tell her.
"Yes, we do. All we have to do is..." She stops for a second, and points to the sky.
"What?!" I respond, and then notice what she's pointing to. A rainbow.
"I don't get rainbows" I tell her.
"How can you not 'get' rainbows" she asks.
"How can a horrible storm produce such beauty. It doesn't make any sense." I reply.
"Rainbows give us comfort. They give us faith and hope in the worst of situations. Like now. We can win Wood. You just got to believe."
I slightly smile.
"You coming back up to the castle?" she asks.
"Yeah." I say. I take once last glance at the rainbow. All the negative thoughts that occupied my mind minutes ago leave my body. I then join her, ready to face the challenges ahead of me.
