Hey you, this is the first so I'll leave everything for the end. Look for criticism.

"Alicia!"

"What?"

"I wasn't done with my essay! And Leanne's probably waiting for me in Transfiguration…"

"So? I'm more important."

"You're not funny."

"I think I am."

I sighed. Leanne would have to wait. Alicia was being difficult.

"Ohhhhh, Katie look who it is." She grinned wickedly.

"Who?" I looked around.

"Its Ced-ric." I raised my eyebrows at her.

"You say his name funny. But yea I see him."

"Go say hi!"

"But I never talk to him anymore! Not since last year at least."

"So? You like him don't you." I glared at her. "And besides, its only been a couple days into term! I know you do."

"Maybe."

"Go!" She pushed me foreword.

"Hey Ced."

"Katie! I haven't talked to you in forever. What's good?" I watched Alicia grin, wave, and head to her first class.

"Life is, you?" He laughed at my reply.

"Same here. It's been a long start of term."

"I know the feeling." I laughed a little.

"When do you have a break?"

"I dunno, after lunch I think?"

"Oh, hey, same here. We should hang out some time."

"That sounds cool." I smiled.

"Yea sounds good, see you then? Maybe you could eat lunch with me too."

I smiled again, "That'd be great. Or you could sit with me." I grinned.

"Oh well don't you sit with your team?" I raised my eyebrow. "They don't like me that much if you know what I mean…" He trailed off.

I laughed, "Oh yea, sorry, I get it." We both smiled and headed off in our separate directions.

I had a lot of fun eating lunch with Cedric. His friends are pretty funny

After lunch we headed down to the lake.

"It's nice outside." I said.

"It is isn't it."

We sat down.

"You wanna do something this weekend?"

I would have raised my eyebrow. "Yea that'd be cool."

"I missed you over the summer." He said, and I laughed.

"Well have to fix that then." I put my arm around him and he did the same.

He opened his mouth to say something but closed it.

"So then what do you want to do?" He scratched his head as he said it.

"I dunno what's good?"

"A walk?" I replied with "Sure" and we turned around to go back in.

The Thursday after that happened, three days later, I stepped out of my class before the last one of the day, and Cedric was standing there waiting.

"Hey come here a second." He pulled me into the space behind the stairs that was a shortcut to the next level. I usually take it because it leads to right outside my classroom.

I happily followed him and I was about to ask what he wanted when out of nowhere, he put his hands on my face and kissed me. I did not protest and I'm sure you can figure out why. I did, however, kiss him back. He released me and smiled. "I like you more than you think." I almost laughed, but restrained myself. I gave him a half smile and said "Oh, that's too bad because I like you less than you think." He did laugh at this and leaned down to kiss me again.

"Okay I didn't mean that." He laughed "I know love, I know."

"Mmm, people only generally call their girlfriends love."

"Maybe there was more of a question in that statement."

"I'm not as smart as I look when it comes to common sense." I teased him because he knows I can be stupid sometimes, but catch on quickly others. This time, however, I did happen to catch on quickly. "Well if you're so stupid then maybe you don't need to know." He threw my move back at my face. "Oh then I guess I'm just going to have to go to History of Magic then." I started to walk away but he grabbed my arm, spun me around, and kissed me again. "I take it back, again. I'll be you're girlfriend."

He grinned. "I thought you would."

After that he let me go and started running to his next class. The bell rang and I was still watching him go. He turned around and waved for me to get going. Somehow I made it back to reality and sprinted up the stairs into History.

"Sorry! I got distracted." My excuse was all truth and no lies.

"That's alright just, don't do it again." Professor Bins didn't care at all.

I sat down in the back of the class where the last available seat was. A couple of the kids who always make trouble sit back there.

"'Allo young deer what brings you to this part of the woods?" An annoying looking guy I knew to be Ricky said. He's in Ravenclaw. I thought of a good reply in seconds, "A newfound love in the world and some bad luck." He sat for a good thirty seconds thinking. "And to whom would this newfound love have the pleasure of being?" I knew I was quicker, and so did he, "He would be someone I have only just re-found in friendship and am not intending to be so anymore." He thought about that one again. "Okay I don't know you that much so you're gonna have to tell me." I laughed and thought wow. "Uh Cedric if it really concerns you that much." He looked thoughtful, "I would have thought a young deer like you would have been able to resist the good looks I'm told come from that neck of the woods." I rolled my eyes, "Obviously. I like people's personality thanks." He shrugged and turned around.

All of a sudden I saw Oliver outside the door. He caught my eye and motioned for me to come out. I asked to go to the bathroom and I was happy to see that Binns didn't care.

"Hey lovely wanna ditch?"

I could have laughed outright. "Uhm no?"

"Please? I'm bored."

"This is my last class."

"What's your point?" I rolled my eyes. "I'm not ditching Oliver."

He sighed. "I know but I did get bored and felt like coming to talk to you."

"You're here and we're talking so I think you achieved your goal. Oh and I wanted to talk to you too." I grinned.

"And what would that be about."

"I don't think I should tell you though. You probably wouldn't be happy." I said thoughtfully.

"Aw come on Kate please? I'll be your best friend?"

"You are my best friend."

"Damn it I need better bribes."

"That you do." I said, and laughed.

"Well, what if I take you out after class ends?"

"There's nothing to do."

"We could walk to Hogsmeade maybe?" I thought about this. "And risk getting caught?"

"I dunno a walk?"

"Sure why not."

"Great!" He grinned.

We both laughed and I headed back to the wonderful classroom that awaited me.

Ricky raised his eyebrow at me. I raised mine at him. He shrugged and went back to doodling on his notebook. I spent the rest of the class thinking about Cedric.

Ohhhh! So what do you think? I'm a horrible speller, so if I missed anything tell me.
I have another chapter or two ready and it'll be around four or five long.
Review a little and I'll post the next one!(:
