Oliver Wood and his parents decided that Kathy needed some time outside her bedroom after the previous nights disaster, so naturally he decided to take her to the new Weasley twins business in diagonally while the others went to headquarters, she needed a little joy in her life in these times and if the pranks didn't make her feel better, there was always Fred.

No matter how much Oliver didn't want his little sister dating anyone, he knew that Fred made her happy and that in these difficult times, love is needed.

So, when they finally arrived to the shop (Oliver had to physically grab Kathy just so she'd come with him, as she didn't want to leave the house), they stood in front of it in awe.

Where the whole street seemed to be black and grey at every single shop, the Weasley's shop reeked of light and laughter that made a warm sensation pass over Kathy, and a smile was brought to her face as her eyes slowly took in the unique sight.

"Bet it's even better inside" Oliver spoke out loud to his sister, he was still holding her wrist just in case she had decided to do a runner, but upon seeing her face he let go and sent her a smile. "Come on"

She nodded slowly before they made their way towards the shop, opening the door to where the laughter only seemed to magnify, along with a small and whiny voice saying 'I will..have...order' which made Kathy laugh before she pointed it out to Oliver, saying how that was the marshmallow she described to him.

Oliver's laughed boomed lightly over a few shelves, which made Kathy blush as realised people had turn to see the old Hogwarts Quidditch Captain stood in a joke shop, it really was the place for unusual sights.

Kathy pointed at the love potions before she dragged her brother over to see them, she admired the bottle before she slid the lid off and smelt the potion, causing her to grin at the familiar smell. "Fascinating, it's not as strong as the usual one, but it's still on point. Must be a concentrated form"

Oliver just nodded along like he didn't barely scrape a potions grade, before he gripped the bottle from his sister and leaned down to smell it, and he furrowed his eyebrows as the scent hit him. "What do you smell?"

"Gunpowder, pumpkins and hot chocolate" Kathy answered simply as she smelt it again, then she went her brother a curious look as he seemed shocked by what he had smelled. "Wha—"

"I doubt you need a love potion, Kathy" a voice cut in to their conversation, and Kathy blushed before she turned to see a sly looking George, and she whacked his arm lightly as her brother put the potion away carefully.

"I was admiring it, I thought you two failed your O.W.L's...so I have no idea how you managed to do complicated formulas like a love potion" Kathy replied smartly, Oliver stood behind them quite awkwardly as he didn't know which twin it was. "Where's Fred?"

"He's at the counter introducing our new co-worker to the shop" George explained with a slight smile playing on his lips, and Kathy's stomach seemed to churn suddenly at the thought of him teaching a girl.

But, she shook the feeling off and thanked George politely before she walked away from both boys, wanting to congratulate Fred on his new place.

When she reached the counter, she noticed Fred and a girl laughing at something that he had said, which made her freeze in her place as she observed the scene, the girl had her hand pressed on Fred's forearm as she laughed and he didn't seem to mind it being there.

Kathy's stomach churning suddenly began to feel as though it was twisting even more, it was like a cracking pain was spreading upwards and towards her heart, she was jealous of Fred stood there laughing with another girl.

She shook her head slightly before she turned back around to find her brother, it wasn't as if they were dating or anything and he hadn't really spoken to her much recently and that must've been why.

He has lost interest in her.

It hurt to say, but she knew that she should try her best to go along with what had happened.

She arrived back to the two boys who were laughing together, and rubbed her arm slightly as felt a chill pass her body randomly, Oliver stopped his laughter almost instantly as he took in the look on his sisters face. "What's wrong?"

"I want to go" She found the courage to speak at last, even though a vile feeling seemed to spread through her throat, and George glanced between the siblings in confusion before he looked over to where his brother was, trying to see what had happened.

"What happened?" George finally asked the question that Oliver was obviously avoiding, and Kathy shuddered slightly before she took ahold of George's hand and smiled at him kindly.

"This place is amazing George, you and your brother have done amazing. But, I'm going to go home now, tell Rosie I said hi if you see her" Kathy just let the words flow out before she grabbed ahold of Oliver instead and transported them away from the reminder that she seems to be stood on.
