The following
afternoon they were in Charms class with the Slytherins. Charms was taught by the tiny
Professor Flitwick, whom most found adorable; not the Slytherins, though. They were just
about to finish their review of Charms covered last year, as a refresher so they could
build on them this year. Professor McGonagall poked her head in the doorway.
"Excuse me,
Professor Flitwick, could I borrow Wood for a moment?" she asked as
Oliver gave his friends a very confused look.
"Yes, yes of
course Professor," he answered cheerfully.
"We'll take
notes for you," Angelica assured him.
"Ah- Okay,
thank you." Oliver said as he got up and walked out the door.
"I hope he's
not in trouble," Jonathan whispered.
"I don't
think he could be, he's sort of a model student," mentioned Adalita.
Later that
day Angelica was curled up in a comfy chair, doing homework in the
commons room. Jonathan had taken Adalita to the Owlry to visit his small barn
owl, Doola.
"Fred! George!"
Oliver said with a huge grin as he practically skipped in from
the portrait hole. The common room was empty except for Fred and George Weasley,
who were beaters for the Quiditch team, and Angelica. "Angie, come here too!"
he said, grabbing her arm and pulling her to join them in a close circle. "I have
some huge news, but you must promise not to breathe a word about it. Okay? Well,
we have a new Seeker!"
The Weasley
twins, who had been playing a game of Wizard's chess ignored their
pieces (which were viciously attacking one another) and their jaws dropped. "Who
is it?" they asked in unison.
"Harry Potter!"
Oliver replied in a low voice.
"So that's what
Professor McGonagall wanted to see you about today!" added Angelica.
"Yes," he nodded. "But we've got to keep this quiet." And then he smiled at
Angelica, "I love you guys!" He gave Angelica a quick kiss on the cheek and
started to leave. "See you at dinner!"
"Woah, Harry
Potter must be bloody brilliant!" exclaimed George.
"Yeah, I reckon
he might be better than Charlie was!" Fred added, speaking of their older brother. Then
he paused and looked at Angelica. "Well, I'm glad I'm not you!" and then the twins
roared with laughter.
