RP: Time to catch up.
Who: Katie, Oliver, and TBD?
What: Catching up after a couple weeks
Where: Pub
When: Monday evening
Rating: SFW


Katie was elated with her job. Of course, it was only the first day and it had been very, very busy; but nonetheless, she was elated. This elatedness caused her to buzz with excitement and she couldn't sit still, so that meant a trip to the pub. Not to drink. She had settled for water and was talking with various people and having a general good time.

Earlier in the evening, Katie had changed out of her work robes and into jeans and a Falmouth shirt, which she felt so odd wearing. Growing up, she hadn't supported Falmouth and after so many years with the Thunderers, this felt like she was betraying someone.

She took a moment to sit at a table, and just finally unwind. Maybe she could stay in one spot this evening for more than just a few minutes.

"Oh shite!" Oliver bemoaned, leaping up in one swift motion upon catching the mug (causing the last reminisce of her drink to dribble onto the top of her shirt). "Fucking hell, Katie, I'm sorry." He made a motion to head to the bar but stopped when Katie ran to grab a rag and came back. "Merlin, I'm sorry." Placing the mug back down he awkwardly wiped at her shirt, though stopped when she lightened the mood. "That was a foul; not an attack." He laughed awkwardly. "Erm... you want to come to my place to change?"

Katie nodded, "That might be best. As warm as it is in here, I'm freezing," she said, dropping the rag onto the table. She had never been more thankful for having her hair put up. The thought of having the smell of beer in her hair was nauseating.

"I deserve a penalty shot," Katie said, teasing her. She wasn't sure if she was embarrassed from her earlier comment or standing there covered in beer in front of Oliver, even if he did it.

After closing out their tab and apologizing profusely to the bartender the two apparated to Oliver's flat.

"Kates, I'm really sorry," Oliver said again, unlocking the door and flipping on the lights to the front room. "I have a... washing box. It washes clothes so you don't need to worry about charming them clean." He moved about, flipping on various lights and grabbing books off the couch. "And you can use my bathtub, it's quite nice."

"Accidents happen, Oliver. I'm not mad." Katie said more to reassure him than anything. That was the truth, she wasn't mad. "I do like nice bathtubs. Washing box?" Katie giggled a bit, realizing what Oliver was talking about. "What do I wear while I'm waiting for my clothes to get cleaned?" she asked him, looking around his living room.

It seemed so very Oliver that his home wasn't showy or flashy or fancy. "Very cozy."

"I know," He replied, returning from his bedroom with a large t-shirt with faded purple letters from some souvenir store in Paris. "Still, I can be quite clumsy sometimes." An apologetic smile followed, handing over the shirt. "Ah, thanks, you like?" Oliver looked around the room. "I've only moved in the past summer; I can't take much credit, mum and my sister hired a decorator since my last place was, well, I guess girl friendly? A bachelor pad, I suppose."

"It's very you," Katie said, taking the shirt, careful not to hold it too close to herself. "I appreciate you letting me use your bath and wash box. I'd hate to run into the twins smelling like beer... or simply walk around smelling like beer for that matter. You're very generous."

"Ah it's nothing, really." Oliver shrugged. "Just leave your clothes outside the bathroom door and I'll get them washed for you."

Katie did as she was told, setting clothes outside the door and soon enough was emerging much better smelling and cleaner, noticing that the clothes had disappeared. Katie had let her hair down, careful not to have gotten it wet during her bath and walked out to Oliver's living room, knowing he couldn't have been very far away.

"I'm human again, thank you so much," she said, not quite sure where exactly to sit.

While Katie bathed Oliver took her clothes to the washing machine, looking at the tag and hoping he'd made the right choice in choosing the wash settings (just to be on the safe side he picked a cold rinse). At this hour of the evening Oliver decided something light would be the best bet to snack on and whipped together a type of dipping sauce made of olive oil, salt, chili flakes and a touch of pesto to compliment the fresh loaf of ciabatta bread. Luckily the grocery shopping had been done earlier, else they'd have had to enjoy the dip with plain, pre-sliced white bread.

"You look human again!" Oliver smirked, tearing off the end of the loaf and offering it to Katie. "Hungry?"

Walking over to where he sat, Katie sat next to him, taking the torn off loaf of bread. "Thank you." Tearing off a small piece of the bread and dipping it into the sauce she casually remarked on Oliver's bathroom products. "I must admit I was surprised to see such remarkable products around your bath. They smell lovely, by the way."

Oliver was in mid bite when Katie mentioned one of Oliver's secret indulgences: girly bath products. He had a serious weakness for the scented oils, those fizzy bath bombs from a muggle store called Lush, lightly perfumed candles, fuzzy bath towels, shampoos and deep conditioners, hair masks, facial treatments... the list went on. Of course when company came by he hid these things (save for Isla, whom he would delight in picking out the perfect bath accessories for) and made sure to never purchase these things in the wizarding world.

"O-oh" He choked down the bite of bread, turning a bright red and coughing. "Those are, are, those are Isla's."

Katie raised an eyebrow, "You mean to tell me that all those products are for that little baby? Oliver... I know I work for the Falcons now, but I assure you I'm not as dumb as people would believe they are." Katie watched him to make sure he was still breathing. "That's two penalty shots now."

"What can I say?" A sly grin spread onto his lips, finally clearing his throat. "I adore the twins. Ask Isla if you don't believe me." At the very least she'd be able to confirm some truth to the story. He tore off another piece of bread, chewing and breaking the silence after a few moments. "I think you're brilliant, Kates, and the Falcons are a good enough team. You're gonna do well."

"I believe you to some extent. I just don't think a 6 year old can go through all those products. Now a male in his twenties... that's a completely different story. Especially a male who has such nice looking hair..." Katie said and broke off a piece of her bread. She was ignoring all his compliments for the time being. "Aside from that being the truth that the Falcons are going to stomp you this season, flattery won't get you anywhere," she said and stuck out her tongue, followed by turning red. She meant nothing by that statement.

"Oh, Merlin, you haven't been around her, then!" Oliver sighed dramatically, dipping more bread into the oil. "She wants a bath, so it's all 'go on then, Ollie, I want the purple sparkly bath!'" He mimicked Isla's high, girlish voice. "Then before you know it she wants 'the pretty blue one', then 'the bright pink' and I have to add more water to get it to swirl properly. Then she wants a bath melt to make the water 'slippery'. She's going to grow up to be a diva." He nodded sagely, biting down onto the bread, ignoring the rest of her comments though subtly blushing at the mention of his hair.

"The Falcons have nothing on us this year," Oliver smirked, stepping forward to flick the end of her tongue.

"She'll be a diva just like her Uncle Ollie," Katie said nodding. "Falcons are going to be unstoppable," she said and scrunched up her nose at the flicking. Katie didn't deny that Isla was exactly as Oliver said. She was her mother's child, for sure. "I think we play each other in November. We're going to win. Remember that."

Oliver flipped his hair dramatically and sighed deeply with a fluttering of his lashes. "I know, right?" He replied dreamily, leaning in and nudging Katie with the crook of his elbow. The smile lingered on his lips while raising his eyebrows in a pleasantly surprised sort of way. "Oh, is that right? What happens when you lose...since you know, you will." The highly competitive side of Oliver ramped into gear.

Katie couldn't help but notice how good Oliver smelled. She couldn't place the scents, since they all melded, but they were familiar enough. She got a mischievous grin when he mentioned losing. "Loser has to use store brand bath products for a week," she said, leaning in towards him. "I hope that doesn't damage those gorgeous locks," she teased, running a hand through his hair.

Katie discovered (rediscovered?) another secret guilty pleasure of Oliver's: having his hair touched. The sensation of her hands moving through the incredibly soft blond locks made him shiver. "Alright," Oliver agreed, barely above a whisper while leaning closer. "But you're going to lose." They were a mere breath's distance apart, Oliver eying Katie's lips when a loud, sharp beep broke the silence in the flat and caused Oliver to jump backward with a start.

Katie thought she'd find herself in Oliver's neighbor's house when the buzzer sounded. She had forgotten all about the wash. Damn that thing to hell. Katie sighed and tried to calm her jittery nerves. What could she say now? "Bloody hell, Oliver, but your hair is really nice." Maybe all those products were worth it.

"I, uhm, thanks." Oliver smiled, clearly a bit shaken from the jarring buzzer. He stood in the kitchen, unsure of what to do, then sighed. "I'll be right back." He said lamely, rushing off to change out her clothes to the dryer.

When Oliver left, Katie audibly sighed. What in the world was she thinking, nearly snogging Oliver like that? Sure, it'd be fun and all but where would it leave them? Who was she kidding, it'd be wonderful if she remembered their Hogwarts days correctly. Of course, both were young and had no idea what they were doing for the most part.

She waited patiently for Oliver's return, eating the last bit of her loaf.

Oliver paused while pulling out Katie's clothes from the wash. Bleeding hell you can snog some floozy without worry. You were brazen as all hell with Mel but you can't snog Katie? his mind mentally chided. What happened to ridiculously smooth Oliver? You can seal the deal like a goblin counts coins. He grumbled lowly, shaking his head. Katie isn't some... one. She's one of my best mates for fuck sake." He closed the door to the dryer, placing it on the lowest setting. So I should be able to do this. We've kissed before. I can do this! It'll be like old times. Yeah! "Yeah!" Oliver agreed with himself and turning on the dryer. Without a second though he strode back into the kitchen, walking with that sense of purpose. He couldn't give himself time to think; this was nothing more than taking a risk during a game. Thinking meant panicking.

Oliver walked over to Katie without a word, resting both hands on her waist to pull her in for a kiss.

Katie had been minding her own business when BLOODYFUCKINGHELLTHERESOLIVER. She did what came natural to her for the most part (she didn't snog random men), and returned his kiss, one arm going around his waist and the other behind his neck to play with his hair. Talk about memories coming back to you. Why had they stopped dating again?

Oliver smiled into the kiss, pulling back briefly to rest his forehead against hers and opened his blue eyes. "Good thing you didn't mind." He said, lips brushing over hers with each word. Taking a moment to admire Katie up close Oliver leaned forward to kiss her once more.
