Katie&Oliver: Chapter 7

Alicia had stood up and was now face to face with the new couple.

"Are you ok? You don't look yourself." Katie asked growing concerned.

"I'm fine, thanks. I have to go." Alicia replied aggresively and left before Katie had time to protest. Alicia glared at their backs whilst they walked to the boathouse to find the twins. The boys gasped at the sight of the couple.

"We knew something was going on between you two. Didn't George. Fred said proudly.

"We did, Fred." Katie and Oliver laughing.

"What are you three doing down here?" Katie asked curiously.

"We're trying to catch a Grindylow." Lee axclaimed excitedly.

"That sounds horrible." Katie said with a frown.

"We want..." Fred began.

"...to make friends with it." George finished his twins explanation.

"Why? If you don't mind me asking." Oliver questioned quite confused.

"Well, they're dangerous and could potentially kill someone, so we want to put it in Snapes office and fill it with water." Fred announced happily. This made Katie and Oliver utterly bemused.

"Well, we're off. We'll pretend we didn't hear any of that. Do you know where Ange is?" Katie said questioning their knowledge of the beautiful Gryffindor Chaser.

"I think she was heading to the Library." Lee answered almost instantly. Katie dragged Oliver to the Library.

"Hey, Angie." Katie skipped over to her studying friend.

"Hey. You two gone public now then?" Angelina asked, looking at their hands.

"Yes." Oliver said very happily putting his arms around his girlfriend. "How did you know?" He added.

"I can't lie to her. She came asking questions." Katie explained.

"Ah. Percy knew too." Oliver mentioned. Angelina nodded.

"We are going to walk some more." Katie said and dragged Oliver away from Angelina's studies. On their travels they bumped into Professor McGonagall.

"Ah. Wood, Miss Bell. The first Quidditch match as been pulled forward to next week - Saturday." She said slightly aggitated.

"Good job I got some Quidditch plays sorted through the summer." Oliver said in a sudden air of stress.

"We could start training tomorrow?" Katie suggested.

"Perfect. We need to round up the team." Oliver said in a bit of a panic. Oliver grabbed Katie's hand and they ran off to get everyone. They found Angelina in the Library, Fred and George down by the boathouse, Harry was with Ron and Hermione at Hagrid's and Alicia was sitting in the common room. They all went down to the Gryffindor changing room to study Oliver's tactics and plays. After booking the pitch for the next day straight after classes. Training was very full on. Harry hadn't flown all summer, Fred and George had taken to hitting the bludger at eachother and Alicia wasn't passing to Katie for an unknown reason.

"Spinnet! What is wrong with you?" Oliver bellowed across the pitch.

"What do you mean Wood?" Alicia yelled in a sarcastic reply.

"Why aren't you passing to Bell?" Oliver was starting to get annoyed. Not only was she ruining Quidditch practise, she was picking on his girlfriend. Little did he know the latter was the reason she was picking on her.

"Because she's being terrible. She's never in the right place, at the right time." Alicia hissed aggresively more pointed towards Katie. She felt hurt. She felt it was the best she's ever played. She didn't know what she'd done wrong.

"She is in the right place to be passed to." Oliver said trying to defend his girlfriend.

"You would take her side, wouldn't you." Alicia said suggesting favouritism. Katie flew down to the ground and Alicia followed.

"What is your problem?" Katie yelled, approaching Alicia.

"Nothing! Wood, i'm done with training for today." Alicia said and left. Oliver flew done to Katie, he hugged her to comfort her.
