Chapter 1: Leaving Magical England Part 1
Date: Thursday, July 11th, 1996
Location: Diagon Alley
Time: 4:36am (And counting)
It took about two hours and ten minutes or so to reach the entrance to The Leaky Cauldron. Of course, since he didn't have a map of London, and he never thought that Wizards made a map of Diagon Alley, Well… English Wizards anyway… he used the Point Me spell that he learned in First Year Charms to find the Leaky Cauldron while cloaked in the air on his Firebolt. That's why it took him faster than just aimlessly wandering around in the air trying to find familiar landmarks. Once he landed, and took his cloak off (after making sure there were no Muggles around), he immediately made his way through the run-down magical bar and to the Barrier entrance to Diagon Alley, not noticing right away that a feminine figure immediately made him out and followed him quickly.
Just as he entered the cobblestone pathway of Diagon Alley, he was pulled aside into a dark alcove and was spun around and was suddenly kissed passionately on the lips. Immediately he knew those lips and her scent and responded to the kiss in kind. After a minute they broke for air and smiled at each other.
"Hey Stowne." he said quietly
"Hey Spikey." she replied just as quietly, using his nickname she had for him. She called him Spikey because of his uncontrollable hair mainly. Even with Hair Charms being placed on it to attempt to smooth it out was worthless. It's like it was spelled that way or something. So she started calling him Spikey. And he had taken to calling her Stowne, the Elemental name of Earth for she was his rock, as much as he was her's sometimes.
"I've missed you." he said to her
"Missed you too love." she said "I got your letter."
"That was quick." he said, genuinely surprised, was Hedwig that fast?
"No, I was just taking a midnight stroll around London actually," Katie Bell said, seeing the look on his face. "I got your letter an hour ago. I love you too Harry." She kissed him lightly on the lips again.
After being stunned silent for a few seconds, Harry gave a small smile, as he blushed a little.
"So… planning on leaving England without me eh Potter?" she asked with a smirk "You know that I've always wanted to travel around the world."
"Uh… yeah…" Harry said sheepishly. "It's just… I feel too cramped, like, the world is caving in on me, and I need to get out, as far away from here as possible."
"I know what you mean Harry." She said, a slightly pained look in her eyes appeared for a second then vanished, her smile back, though it didn't quite reach her eyes as it did just a few seconds ago. Not being so daft around his girlfriend, Harry noticed the pained look.
"Hey, what's wrong?" he asked, cupping her hands gently in his.
"My Mum and I had an argument… a very bad one," she started, feeling a little relaxed at the way his thumbs were gently making soothing circles on the back of her hands "I grabbed my backpack and hoodie and left without a word a few minutes later when she wasn't looking. Then I got your letter as I was walking to clear my head."
"What was the fight about?" Harry asked concerned
"My choice in boys." She said, a slight blush coming to her face. "You actually."
"Me?" he asked, confused "She doesn't even know about us. Right?" he asked
"She knows…" she said "She found my Diary that I started when I was an Ickle Firstie at Hogwarts." She finished saying
"How does your Diary factor into things?" he asked, still clearly confused
"Because I write in it almost daily." She answered, "When I got it, I asked for never-ending-parchment, preservation charms, and some security measurements as well. It was costly, but it was worth it. Anyway, like I was saying, I write in it almost daily so she knows know about you and I. And I think with all the adventures that you've gone through that she's most likely read, she got this idea in mind that you like to go after trouble or something."
"Oi!" He said, "I don't go looking for trouble-"
"It finds me/you first." Harry and Katie said together, with Katie saying 'you.'
Katie giggled a little at his most common phrase then said, "I know that Harry." She smiled a little, then, "But my mother doesn't. She's confiscated my Diary... and I need it back."
"What's in it?" he asked, "Other than my 'adventures' as you so lovely put it." he finished, using air quotes on Adventures.
"I've written notes in it, spells that I'm still working on, and things that I can teach you if we ever decide to bail that god-forsaken school." She grinned mischievously as Harry rolled his eyes. "Besides, I can't remember everything... unlike a certain, bushy haired know-it-all." She finished bluntly
"I see your point..." Harry said. He thought for a few moments about this current situation, then his eyes lit up as a thought came to him. "You want it back right now right?"
"Yes. It feels like I'm missing a limb." Katie said, her shoulders drooping a little in sadness.
"Hey, we can always use my House Elf." Harry said "He'll be more than happy to fetch it for you."
"You'll do that?" She asked, her eyes brightening again. Harry liked that look on her face. Also, the reason he's not saying the Elf's name is, even when in normal conversation like they are now, he'll pop in without them meaning to. So, they refrain from saying the little guy's name. Even after Harry had gone through with the Bonding Ritual of House Elves with Dobby during his third year when he and his two best friends weren't talking to each other, and when he and Katie started secretly dating, he still pops in when his name is mentioned.
"Of course." Harry said "Anything to make you happy love." Harry finished "Dobby!" He called quietly
POP!
"The Great Harry Potter Sir calls for Dobby?" the little elf said immediately, softly popping in next to Harry's left.
"Yes Dobby. I did. Listen, you know what Katie's Diary looks like right?" He asked him. Dobby immediately nodded his head back and forth, kind of like shaking a bobble head really fast and out of control.
"Can you get it for her?"
"Dobby bes getting yous's Diary Missy Belly. Dobby bes right back."
POP!
Seconds later…
POP!
Dobby returned with a spiral bound, dark red leather notebook in his hands and handed it to Katie. Then, when he wasn't needed for anything else, he disappeared with a soft pop.
"That was quick." Katie said
"That's the beauty to having a House Elf. Convenient little buggers they are. Harry said, nodding to his girlfriend's comment. "Need anything..." he finally noticed what she was wearing as Katie pulled a backpack off her shoulders, zipped it open, and gently put her Diary away, then closed it. "Else..." he finished saying. He remembered giving her that backpack nearly two years ago, their one year anniversary of secretly dating. The backpack was charmed and runed to be unbreakable, lightweight (No matter how much stuff you have in it), an undetectable expansion field inside the bag itself, and to be a comfortable fit to the wearer along with preservation charms on it as well to keep it from aging. It was expensive he remembered, but it was completely worth it when he saw the bright look on her face after he finished describing what modifications he had done on it. Then, she snogged him senseless right there in the empty Gryffindor Common Room on Christmas. Right now, that's one of the memories/feelings to power his Patronus with. In fact, when he rescued Sirius near the lake in the Forest from the Dementors, that was the memory he used.
It was then, that he noticed what she was wearing when she put her backpack back on her shoulders. Looking from her feet up, she was wearing sturdy looking Hiking Boots of what looked to be made of dark brown dragonhide, blue jeans, a black starred hoodie with the golden logo of STAR WARS displayed prominently on the front. and he highty assumed some sort of a t-shirt underneath that. Her hood was down, revealing her beautiful face, her turquoise eyes and honey-blonde hair, which was currently just below her shoulders in length, in a French-Braid, Side-Branded Pony style.
"Harry?" He blinked when he heard his name called from her lips. "You okay?" she asked
His face turned red, blushing at being caught admiring her. "I... I'm fine." he said "Have I mentioned how beautiful you look today?" he asked dumbly, trying to get his blush under control, and kinda failing at it.
"You're very cute when you are attempting to change the subject Harry." Katie said with a smile, then she lightly kissed him on the lips saying "Thanks though. But let's get you to Gringotts trouble-maker."
With that, Katie took his closes hand with hers and then led him up to the white marbled, six story high, triangular building that was Gringotts.
