Katie&Oliver: Chapter 8
Training ended and everyone sat in the common room minus Alicia who was sulking in her dorm room. They trained everyday leading up to the match - which was against Slytherin. During the game, bludgers were flying everywhere full blast. Despite the Slytherin's obvious cheating - which Lee commented about multiple times during the commentary as well as how much he liked Angelina - Gryffindor won the match. Everyone flooded onto the pitch. Katie and Oliver were trying to reach eachother. (God know's why they didn't just fly to eachother) As Katie broke out of the crowd, she saw a girl grab Oliver and kiss him. He did nothing to stop it. Katie tried to think of a logical explanation but nothing came to mind. She looked closer and saw who the girl was. It was Alicia. Katie felt fury swell inside of her. Alicia pulled away, leaving a very shocked Oliver looking at Katie. He saw her walking fast from the pitch. She went to get changed, he changed too. He met her outside the changing room but she walked straight by him. She was headed for the forest - the forbidden one.
"Katie!" He yelled, pleading for her to stop. She did after a while. The match took place at dusk so it was getting dark now as they headed into the forest. "Katie! Where are you going?"
"For a walk!" Katie replied awfully aggresively.
"Not in the forst. It's dark, anything could happen." Oliver said and just then they heard a loud howl.
"Like you care what happens to me. Not when you're kissing Alicia anyway." Katie explained, walking deeper into the forest. Despite being scared of the howl. Oliver grabbed Katie's arm and spun her around.
"Don't go any further!" He raised his voice in concern. Katie snatched her arm away and carried on deep into the forest. Oliver followed her ofr about half an hour, pleading for her to turn back. It was pitch black by then. 'Lumos'. Katie stopped and everything began to freeze. They saw the big, cloaked figure of a dementor floating eerily towards them. It began to suck the soul out of Katie. Oliver began to panic.
"Expecto Patronum!" He yelled, thinking of the first time him and Katie kissed. He drove the Dementor away but Katie passed out. He carried her to the Gamekeeper's (Yes that is Hagrid :)) cabin. He knocked on the door and when Hagrid answered he gasped deeply. Hagrid took her from Oliver's tired arms and layed her down on the bed and waited for a few minutes until she had woken. They gave her some chocolate, thanked Hagrid and left.
"You know you said you used the Patronus Charm. What did you think about?" Katie asked as they walked up the sloped lawn.
"Our first kiss." Oliver said looking at the ground with his hands in his pocket. Katie stopped both of them from walking and kissed him. They both smiled through the kiss.
"I know that kiss wasn't your fault. It just hurt seeing another girl kissing you." Katie said after they pulled away. Oliver hugged her and they carried on up to the castle with their arms around eachother. When they reached the common room, Gryffindor was having a glory party with food and butterbeer. When Alicia saw them her face dropped.
