Roger gave Katie an inquisitive look. "Weasley? Charlie Weasley? What'd you got going on with him?"
His girlfriend had an impassive look on her face, and retorted angrily. "Nothing, Roger, I've already told you this! Stop being a jealous bint."
"Someone told me you were getting kind of cozy outside the Leaky Cauldron yesterday," he snapped in response, giving her an I-can't-believe-you-would-do-this-to-mesort of face.
"So what?" Katie asked – she wasn't lying. Charlie was just a friend. Even if she had feelings towards him – not confirming or denying the the fact – Katie Bell was not a cheat. "Do you believe every rumor that comes around?"
"When it has to do with my girlfriend of a year cuddling up to someone else, yeah, I do, I'm kind of doubting your honesty right now," replied Roger heatedly.
"He's nothing, I swear," said Katie coolly. "As if you would think that about me!" Okay, so maybe she did have a little bit of a crush on one Charlie Weasley, but she was already with Roger, and Katie was sure it was just a flitting affection that would go away, one that was based completely on his abs and biceps.
"It isn't that hard to believe," said Roger in an equal fervor.
"And how, may I ask, is it not hard to believe?" questioned Katie in an angry tone, eyes blazing with fury.
"I know you have a thing for him!" exclaimed Roger dramatically, and it took every inch of resistance Katie had not to roll her eyes at him. True as his statement may be (although she would never admit that out loud) he was a tad dramatic.
However Katie was grasping the last straw; the relationship between them had been going downhill lately, and arguing was all they seemed to do, the last time they had aproper kiss, she couldn't remember. It was fizzling, and not at all passionate like it once was.
Gathering all her pride, she faced him and said, "Maybe I do. Maybe that's why I'm leaving you."
And with a huff, she stormed out of the flat they shared together.
