Year 2 Chapter 6 - Little Olivia

"Yes?" I asked turning. It was Olivia. She had a white eye patch on her left eye.

"Oh um..." she started. She seemed shy.

"It's alright. I'm Leah by the way." I said as I stood up. Olivia was just a little bit smaller than me.

"I'm Olivia. I saw you at the ceremony..."

"Yes I know. I saw you too." I smiled with her. "I put some food next to your bed. Did you eat any?" I asked.

"Oh yes and thank you! I was very hungry..." Then she paused. "What were you doing?"

"Oh um..." I started. Snowy flew up to us and landed on my shoulder.

"Just tell her you were packing for a trip." she chirped.

"Oh I was just packing for a trip, you see" I repeated.

"I know your lying." Olivia said rolling her eyes. "But that's okay."

"How did she know?" I whispered to Snowy.

Before she could answer, Olivia looked up at me and said "You can talk to animals?"

Snowy rolled her eyes.

"Um...yes I can. Please don't tell anyone. You weren't supposed to know."

"Deal!" Olivia smiled. I liked her smile.

"Why don't you join me for breakfast?" I asked. That's when Olivia jumped for joy.

"I would LOVE too!" she said.

"Great! Let's get Leo and we'll be on our way to the courtyard. Breakfast doesn't start till an hour from now."

"Okay...also, who's Leo? And what courtyard?"

"Don't worry!" I chuckled. "Just come with me" I lead her to Leo and said "This is my friend Leo."

As I said that, he opened his eyes and yawned. "Morning Leah." he whispered as he got out of bed. "Who's this?" Olivia was huddling behind me.

"Oh, this is Olivia!" I answered as we walked to the stairs. Leo had gotten dressed and we were off to the courtyard.

"Nice to meet you Olivia!" he said to her. Olivia smiled at him. We were just at the stairs, when I heard someone call out.

"Hey! Leo!" It was Seriya. Seriously!? I thought as she caught up to us.

"Hey Seriya!" Leo said as she glared at me. I rolled my eyes as she grabbed Leo's arm.

"Can I come with you guys?" she asked. Olivia was behind me again.

Before I could answer, Leo said "Oh course! We're going to the courtyard. You should join us!" They both smiled.

"Whatever." I mumbled as I held Olivia's hand. Leo was in front with Seriya. She was sticking out her tongue at me. I glared at her.

"I don't like her very much..." Olivia whispered to me.

"I don't either, but it's okay." I whispered back. She smiled at me. "Don't worry, I'm here." I smiled back.

"Soo, where are we going?" I ask Leo.

"I don't know, where do you want to go?" Leo turned to me.

"How about the Forbidden Forest! It's sooo spooky there!" Seriya said. She thought she could scare me. Nice try. I think.

"Sure! Let's go! You wanna come Olivia?" Olivia seems scared, but she smiles and nods. I look at Seriya who's glaring at me.

"I would like to see the magical creatures there!" Olivia says.
