Plance Hogwarts AU: Part 5
I have a random question, but in your opinion what would Pidge wear to the Yule ball? Im super curious lol
“Stupid Loverboy. Stupid ball. Stupid Dance. Everything is so stupid!”
Katie paced through the garden; the air frigid cold. She was too heated to notice someone walk up behind her.
“Are you okay?” Katie turned around to face a dark-haired Gryffindor. He was leaning up against a pillar with his arms crossed.
Katie had seen him around here and there. He’d sometimes hang out with Hunk and Lance. She heard rumors that he was pretty hot-headed and has gotten to a few fights in his time being here.
“Well, I mean…” Katie stuttered over her words, the cold finally getting to her.
He walked over to her, “Here.” He draped his jacket over her shoulders and Katie was grateful for the warmth. They stood in silence for a few minutes, until he broke the silence, “The names Keith. Do you want to talk about whatever is bothering you?”
Katie looked up at him and she was surprised to see genuine concern on his face, “Uh, yeah.” They walked over to the stairs right inside the castle away from prying eyes, “I have this friend that, well, is, I guess-“
“That you think of as more than a friend?”
Katie looked at the stranger. She felt the tears rolling down her face. Keith reached up and wiped the tears from her cheek.
“What are you doing?”
Katie and Keith stand up quickly, “Lance…”
Lance stepped towards Katie, “I was looking all over for you. I-“ Keith stepped in front of him, “Hey!”
“You shouldn’t come any closer.”
“That’s my best friend, Mullet-Head.”
“Yeah, well you hurt her, Lover Boy.”
Both boys stopped in their tracks. They turned to Katie, who was visibly crying, “Just leave me alone!”
She turned and ran down the stairs. This day had been the worst she’d had in a long time.
