Each Other

Chapter 20

Jules POV

It started to pour outside, like thunder and lightning type of rain. It was dark outside because of the clouds. A loud roar ran through my dorm and it scared me so I jumped. Which woke up Oliver.

"Whats wrong!?" Oliver said to me while jolting awake. I had my shoulders up by my ears because of the unexpected noise. He grabbed my hands "Hey, its okay." he reasured me. I nodded my head and he then said "Its just some rain..." his words then began to trail off.

I looked at him with confusion "Oliver?" I whispered to him. He then stood up "How long have I been sleeping?" he asked so I answered him "Well, it's now 5-" Oliver cut me off "5! I have quidditch practice in 15 minutes!" he then started heading towards the door. 

"Um...Hello?" I waved at him and he then turned around "Oh! Right...sorry" he then quickly walked over to me and gave me a quick kiss goodbye. He then left and I was all alone in my room with a raging thunder storm outside. I stood up from my bed and walked over to my desk. 

I sat down and picked up a very worn out box. I have had this box since my first year, I bring it every school year so I can fill it with more memories. I opened the box and as usual I push whatever is at the top to the side so I can get the things from me and Annes old days. Cedric doesn't get in this box till my second year because he's a year younger than us. 

I picked up a gum wrapper, a very torn gum wrapper. The door then opened and Anne came into the room. She looked at what was in my hand. "Hm, the first time we met."

FLASHBACK TO THEIR FIRST TIME MEETING

I was sitting in a compartment on the Hogwarts Express by myself looking out the window. A lady with a cart full of sweets came next to my door "Anything from the trolly dear?" but before I could answer a girl yelled "OO GUM!" and she put money in the ladies hand "You can go now" the girl said and then went into my compartment and closed the door.

She started to rip off the wrapper and then she threw it at me. "Hey! What was that for?" I told her. "You didn't ask for my name and thats rude." she said while shoving gum in her mouth. "Well what's your name?" She started to chew with her mouth wide open "Anne" she then extended her hand so I can shake it. But when I reached out she pulled hers back and said "And you are?" 

"Im Jules" she nodded and shook my hand.

END OF FLASHBACK  

"Why did you eat gum like that, like you have never had it before?" I asked my bestfriend. "I always swallowed it as a tiny kid so my mom never let me have it, but my mom wasn't on the train so when I saw it I had to have it." Anne then sat on her bed.

I just started going through things when I found something of Olivers. It was a rock, not a big one but a tiny pebble. I held it up and smiled "Hmm, the first time I told you I liked Oliver so you threw a rock at him to get his attention." I put the pebble down and turned to look at Anne.

"And if he breaks your heart I will throw a bigger rock" she said with a smile. I then closed the box and put it back. "Why are they playing quidditch in weather like this?" 

"Beats me." Anne said while unwrapping a Sugar Quill.

It was now 6:30 and I know Oliver wouldn't end practice until 7 but he needs to eat and he will end up getting sick. I told Anne I was going to see Oliver and she said "Okay, im going to head to he great hall with Ced" I nodded ad headed to the pitch.

It was very cold and lightning and thunder was all you can see and hear. I ran to he pitch and Oliver couldn't see me because of the hard rain so I went up into the stands hoping that he would.
