Chapter 4

No one had seen Olivia or Harry for more than a moment since they had gotten together. They were nearly inseparable. Every day, Emma seemed to be growing more and more annoyed with Olivia. And Billy for that matter, he kept calling her a spaz and watching Emma flip out was twice as much fun as anything the rest of the group could come up with without crazy Olivia and the weird new kid there.

Tancred and Lysander had also been missing as well. They'd gone on a short exchange program but had finally returned and had met the new kid called Harry Potter. When hearing of his and Olivia's relationship Tancred seemed rather sadened, however they were both happy to be back with their friends in the grass.

Just as Billy was about to call Emma a spaz, Olivia came over -- alone, to everyone's surprise -- looking very distraught. She was white and shaking, clutching her arms like a crazy person. She walked over to her friends and sat down on the grass where she was bombarded with questions.

"Liv, where ya' been?" "You still with Potter?" "Where is he?" "Wait, what's wrong with you?"

Everyone stared at her expectantly but all she did was shake her head and lay down. They crowded around her worriedly.

"Olivia, what's happened to you?" Emma pleaded, fiddling anxiously with her hair while Fidelio started pulling up the grass absent- mindedly. A strong breeze blew around them -- coming from a suddenly angered Tancred -- that helped cool the hyper-ventalating girl off.

"What happened, Livvy?" Tancred demanded. "Was it that Potter kid?" An even bigger gust blew their hair about and a small cloud began forming over head.

"Cool it, Tanc. Let her talk," said Charlie, wiping the hair out of her face. Olivia sat up slowly and nodded at Tancred while still staring at the ground and holding herself, rocking slightly.

"I'll kill 'im!! I swear it!" Tancred got up and started to take off when Olivia called him back, "Tancred, don't go!" and he came and sat back down.

"I'm okay, really," she began to breathe normally. "I just got freaked out but I'm fine." She reached out and patted Tancred's hand: he blushed slightly.

"Potter freaked you out? Not surprised..." mumbled Gabriel.

Olivia glared at him and then shrugged slightly. When she didn't speak Emma renewed the topic. "What did he do?"

"Oh," she lowered her voice and shuddered. "He pulled out his wand--"

"WHAT!" came from all the boys.

"Where is he?! That friggen pervert!" Charlie shouted, causing a few heads to turn.

"Pervert?" Olivia was confused. "Oh! EW, NO! NOT what I meant! I mean a real WAND."

Now it was everyone else's turn to look confused.

"Like, you mean of the magical variety?" asked Billy.

"Yeah, Billy. It really was...magic." She stared dreamily into space. For a while, everyone was speachless. Eventually, Gabriel couldn't contain himself and spoke up, "Well, what the ruddy hell did he do?!" His sudden out burst pulled everyone out of their silence and they stared at Olivia again.

"He... he just... You guys aren't going to believe me," she exclaimed.

"Olivia, have you seen all the crazy shit that goes down at this school? Try us." said Lysander.

"Okay. He... made that Spencer kid fly across the room without touching him," she said awaiting their gasps.

"Erm, so what? He's tellekinetically endowed, big deal," said Fidelio.

"No no! He needs a wand to do it though! And he did other things with it too!"

"Like what?" they asked. Then she went into a long recelection about Harry Potter and his wand. "But don't tell anyone."

"I have a wand but I can't do things like THAT with it." Charlie said.

"I know, you think we should tell Dr. Bloor about him?" Billy suggested.

"I want to see it."

"Me too!"

"What? NO! You guys can't tell him I told you!" Olivia shrieked, but no one seemed to hear her.

"Let's go bother him about it."

"Maybe he can make me more manly..."

"What was that, Gabriel?"

"NOTHING."

"Argh! You guys just don't understand! Retards!!" In a huff Olivia hauled herself up and ran away.

"Erm...kay?"

"Hey, you guys," Harry said as he sat down. "Have you seen Olivia? I really need to talk to her..." He stopped and stared at the strange glares he was getting from them. "Er, did she already talk to you guys about what happened?"

"Show us your wand." commanded Charlie.

"W-what?"

"Your wand. Show us."

"Erm...uh...eh...I gotta go." Harry started running before they got violent.

"Get back here, Potter!"

"Show us your WAND!"

People's heads stared at them awkwardly.

"Come back! I NEED to be manly!!"

Then they chased Harry Potter until they came crashing into Olivia. Then they chased Harry Potter AND Olivia.

And no one else ever knew which wand they were talking about.

Author's Note:

I officially smack myself in the face a thousand times for writing such a suck ass chapter. But, due to my lack of time, I shall post it anyway and perhaps replace it later when I think of something better. If anyone has suggestions for me PLEASE let me know. I'm really stuck. Oh, and in case you're wondering, if anyone else feels like writing a fanfic where Charlie and Harry meet that DOESN'T suck, go right ahead, I do not care. :-). I would, however, like to read it so let me know! ttyl. 'bye!
