Chapter 14: Detention, Dating, and more Detention

Katey looked around the common room. She stood there waiting for Ginnie, Skylar, and Draco. They decided that they would meet in the Common Room so they can walk to breakfast all together. Katey yawned and rubbed her eyes. She wished that she didn't punch Parkinson's nose in because then she could have still been sleeping. But it was all worth it.

"Morning," Blaise said coming down the boys stairs.

"Hey…what are you doing up?" Katey asked.

"Draco told me that you guys had to wake up early. So I wanted to have a breakfast date with you."

"Really?"

"Of course. But…only if you want to."

"Yeah…yeah I do."

"Well…lets go." Blaise took her hand and lead her into the Great Hall.

"Wow. It's pretty empty in here."

Blaise chuckled. "Yeah it is. But who cares. That means we get more alone time."

Katey gave him a weird outlook.

Blaise looked at her. "No not that! God no! No!"

"Right." Katey walked over to the Slytherin Table and sat down.

Blaise walked over to the table and sat across from Katey. "Well…this is quiet."

"It might not be like that for long."

"Why?"

"Well…Skylar, Ginnie, and Draco have detention too. So they will be down here soon."

"Oh…well then, let's hurry up."

"Hey you guys. Whats up?" Ginnie asked as she sat down next to Katey.

"Too late," Blaise mumbled to himself.

"Nothing much. How are you this morning?" Katey asked waiting for the food to appear in the table.

"Tired. I didn't go to sleep until like midnight."

"Why?"

"Brittany and her stupid snoring. She might be mad that I'm talking to you. But I don't really care. If one of my friends doesn't like my other friend than they aren't a good friend."

Katey laughed. "Thanks Ginnie. You're the best."

"I know. Where is Skie-pooh and Draco?"

"I dunno. Weren't we supposed to meet in the Common Room?"

"Yes we were. But you weren't there."

Katey looked at Blaise then Ginnie. "I had other plans."

"Ah…I see. So are you guys like an item now?"

"Item?" Blaise asked confused.

Katey looked at Blaise. "You know Item?"

"Whats that?"

"It's another word for dating, bf/gf, all that stuff."

"Oh…"

"Yeah." Katey looked at Ginnie. "Yes we are."

"Congrats. Where is the food? I need food or else I'll pass out during detention," Ginnie said looking for the food.

"Dumbledore won't put it up for another five minutes."

"What?! That only gives us like ten minutes to eat."

"That's why we do a take-out."

"A take-out?"

"Put in our pockets, wrap it in napkins, or put it in bags."

"Oh…that take-out."

Katey giggled and rolled her eyes. "Look, here comes Dumbledore now." She shouted, "Professor Dumbledore!"

Dumbledore looked over at the Slytherin table and walked over there. "Hello Ms. Potter. What can I do for you?"

"Can you put the food on the table?"

"Absolutely my dear girl." Dumbledore clapped his hands and food appeared on the tables.

"One more thing Professor."

"Hm?"

"Well…me and Ginnie got detention. So we kinda need the food to be here this time again. Maybe even a little bit earlier."

"Ah…yes. Severus told me about what you two did."

"But Professor, Professor Snape didn't let us explain ourselves."

"Ah…I see. But you don't have to discuss the matter with me." Dumbledore looked down at us with his twinkling eyes. "Good day to you." Dumbledore walked over to his seat at the head teachers table.

"I like Dumbledore. He's cool," Ginnie said piling her plate up with food.

"Whoa Ginnie. You don't need that much food," Katey said piling up her own plate but not as high as Ginnie was.

"Yes I do. I need to make sure I have enough energy to work."

"Whatever you say."

"Hey, Katey. Hey Ginnie," Draco replied sitting next to Katey. "Hi Blaise."

"Malfoy! God damn it!" Skylar yelled running into the Great Hall. "You bastard!" Skylar sat down next to Blaise.

"What got into you Skylar?" Katey asked as she started eating her food.

"Malfoy ditched me and tied my shoes laces together."

"Hey, it's not my fault you can't look before you run," Draco said raising his hands in defense.

Skylar looked at Blaise. "What are you doing here?"

"I wanted to seed my girlfriend off to breakfast and then detention."

"Girlfriend?" Skylar and Draco asked at the same time.

"Yeah…me and Katey are dating now."

"Now isn't that special?" Draco asked without a lot of enthusiasm.

"Come on you guys. Chill," Katey said passing Draco the biscuits.

Skylar took one and put it on his plate. Skylar leaned over to Blaise. "Don't worry I'm over her. I like someone else now."

"Who?" Blaise asked curiously.

"Like I'll tell you."

"I bet I'll figure it out."

"Sure you will."

Katey looked at the clock. "Oh…we should go and see Snape now for detention."

"What?! I just barely started eating" Skylar whined.

"Then pack it up."

"Fine" Skylar started packing his food up and much more.

Draco did the same and he looked at Katey. "If we have to scrub things again I swear I will lose my fucking mind."

Katey laughed. "Don't do that. You need your brain."

"Shut up."

Blaise stood up. "Want me to walk you?"

"Yes please," Katey answered as she put her food in her book bag.

Blaise took Katey's hand and started walking her to Snape's office. Skylar, Ginnie, and Draco linked arms and started walking off to detention. Once they got to detention Blaise was still holding Katey's hand and was waiting for the others to walk in.

Blaise turned and looked at her when the others were in the room. "I'll see you at Lunch?"

"If there is a Lunch for me," Katey said smiling.

"If there isn't, I'll bring you some food."

"Thanks."

"So…"

"Sooo…"

"I'll see you later." Blaise kissed her on the cheek and walked back to the Great Hall.

Katey smiled and walked into Snape's Office.

"So glad you can join us, Ms. Potter," Snape said as he looked at her.

"Sorry," Katey apologized.

"Now…you guys will go into these places looking for the ingredients that I need for my class room."

"But don't you have them in your shop?"

"No. You will need to get me these ingredients and as many as you can. Now go!"

"What if we finish?"

"Then you will do whatever I say. Now go!!"

"Okay," they all said and took the list he gave them.

"Okay…we should split this list up into two. That way we will get more done," Ginnie said waving her wand over to the list making another copy.

"Now…who goes with whom?" Katey asked.

Skylar looked around and grabbed Ginnie's arm. "I take Ginnie."

"But I wanted Ginnie," Katey frowned.

"Too bad. I got her first."

"Fine. Come on Malfoy lets go." Katey walked off with Draco and Skylar walked off with Ginnie another direction.

(Three Hours Later)

"My feet hurt," Katey complained.

Draco sighed and looked at her. "I heard you the twelve god damn time!"

"Don't yell at me."

Draco groaned. Why do I have to be stuck with Potter? I rather go with Ginnie than her. But this way I can convince her to break up with Zabini. Draco smiled evilly.

"I don't like that smile."

"Shut-up." I rolled my eyes. "God you're soo annoying."

Katey stuck her tongue out at him. "I get it from the best!"

"I said shut-up."

Katey sighed and rolled her eyes. "Where do we find a…newt?"

"I dunno."

"Aren't they in like the forest or something?"

"Like I said before…I dunno!"

"Don't be so mean."

"I'm not mean. I'm just annoyed."

"Yeah well….you're a butt-face!"

"Thank you."

"That wasn't a compliment."

"I'll take it as one."

Katey rolled her eyes and looked down and screamed.

Ginnie was looking around for one of the ingredients when Skylar stepped really close to her.

"You know there is something called space," Ginnie said pushing Skylar away a little.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to get too close."

"It's okay…just don't do it again."

"But what if I want too?"

Ginnie looked at him weirdly. "Are you okay?"

"Actually…no."

"Whats wrong?"

Skylar shrugged his shoulders and looked around.

"Tell me. Are you okay? I mean…aren't we friends?"

"Yeah…"

"Then tell me."

"I dunno."

"Come one. Just tell me."

Skylar bit his lip. Should I tell her? I shook my head. No…I'll tell her another time. "It doesn't matter. I'll tell you later. Let's just look for the ingredients."

(Katey and Draco side)

"Get it off of me!!" Katey screamed.

Draco looked at her and saw that a big spider was crawling on her.

Katey screamed even louder. "GET IT OFF OF ME!!"

Draco ran over to her and pulled the spider off of her. But then more spiders started crawling over her. Draco pulled out his wand and pointed it at the spiders. "Petrificus Totalus!"

All the spiders froze and Katey laid there whimpering. Draco went over to her and started pulling the spiders off of her.

He looked at her. "Are you okay?"

Katey nodded. "Thanks. I hate spiders. I like snakes...well…sort of…not really. But I just hate spiders."

Draco chuckled. "Spiders are alright. Not my favorite but they're okay. You sure you're okay?"

"Mhmm." Katey nodded.

"Okay…hey. I found the newt." Draco picked up a newt.

"A newt. You found a newt."

"At least I found one."

"I found three." Katey picked up three and put them in a jar along with the one Draco got. "That's the last one that was on the list."

"Okay…let's head back now."

(Snape's Office; Two hours later)

"Where's Ginnie and Skylar?" Katey asked looking around for them.

"I dunno." Draco shrugged his shoulders.

"There they are. And why are they holding hands?"

Ginnie looked at Katey with a sheepish smile. "Hi."

"Hello…whats all this?"

"Umm…"

Katey looked at Skylar. "Same question."

"Nothing…maybe we just wanted to hold hands," Skylar said nervously.

Katey looked at them suspiciously. "Umm…okay."

"We should walk into Snape's Office now." Katey opened the door and walked in. "Sir? We found all the ingredients."

Snape looked up and then looked at the clock. "That was fast. Well…do what this book says and then put the ingredients in the right spots and then put some in my store. And tomorrow you will go straight back out there, same time, and you will find those same ingredients."

"But what about after we are done with today's little segment?" Ginnie asked.

"You will finish cleaning my classroom."

"What about tomorrow then?"

"You will my correct papers and file stuff that needs filing."

"Yes sir!" Katey yelled saluting.

"Just get to work."

"Okay." Katey walked out with Draco, Ginnie, and Skylar and they did what they were told.

000

(Two More hours later)

Katey looked around the room. The room looked even messier than it was yesterday. Katey sighed a big heavy sigh.

Draco looked at her and walked over to her. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah…just a bit tired." Katey yawned and rubbed her eyes.

"Why are you tired? It's only…three thirty pm."

"Yeah but I'm tired. I kept having weird dreams last night. Plus Brittany wouldn't stop snoring."

Draco chuckled. "Yeah, Crabbe and Goyle snore pretty loud too. But I learned to silence their beds. I just hope they don't get into any trouble."

Katey laughed. "Yeah but then Brittany would be pissed off if I did that. Cause Brittany wouldn't hear her alarm and then she'll be late and blah blah blah blah blah."

"Yeah…that's why we splash them with cold water from their showers."

"You and Blaise do that on purpose don't you?"

"Yeah."

"You guys are so evil. The only person who gets a cold shower is Parkinson and Greengrass. Brittany takes cold showers well at least a little cold so she doesn't mind. Desi and Mony get the warm showers. Ginnie gets the half warm half hot showers. And I get the full on hot showers."

"Do you guys have like a schedule or something?"

"No…it's just who can wake up first."

Draco laughed. "Yeah. Blaise and I get the nice hot and warm showers. Crabbe and Goyle get the cold ones."

Katey laughed. "Yeah." Katey sighed.

"Whats wrong?"

"Nothing." Katey sighed again.

"Okay now that's two sighs. Tell me whats going on."

"I dunno." Katey sighed for the third time.

"Stop sighing and tell me."

"I just…" Katey was about to sigh again.

"Don't sigh again." He took her hand in his. "Please…look at me." Draco grabbed Katey's chin gently and made her look at him. "Please tell me whats on your mind."

Katey looked into Draco's beautiful grey eyes. She wanted to tell him how she felt about him but she barely knew those feelings. She had feelings for Draco and Blaise. "I…I just…" Katey sighed. "Have you ever asked yourself 'am I making the right choice'?"

Draco looked at her curiously. "Yeah…I kinda have. But then sometimes…I take a lot of time to relax and then I start thinking about what I really want out of my life."

"Wow…that's deep. I never knew you could talk like that."

"Yeah….I surprise people."

"I just noticed." Katey started laughing.

Draco watched her as she laughed. He couldn't help but stare. He thought that she was really pretty especially when she smiled. He wanted to kiss her. He wanted to kiss her right then and there. But he knew he shouldn't. He started thinking about what would happen if he kissed her. He came up with only one problem…Blaise.

Blaise would kill him if he found out. But if she pulled away and slapped him across the face then he might back off. But if she pulled away and blushed or she kept kissing him then he definitely would not back off. So either way he wouldn't back off.

He looked at her and noticed that she was saying his name. "Huh?"

"I asked if you were okay. Cause you were just sitting there watching me laugh."

"Oh, sorry. I didn't realize I was staring."

"Sure. Are you okay? Cause you keep acting weird."

"Yeah, I'm fine. I just have something on my mind."

"Like what?"

You. He said in his mind. Just kiss her. If you kiss her then you will know the truth if you like or even love her. "What would you do…if someone kissed you and shouldn't have?"

Katey looked at him with a questioning look. "Umm…I don't know. I guess it would depend who kissed me. Why do you ask?"

That helps a lot. Draco said sarcastically in his mind. "What if…Weasley kissed you?"

"I dunno. I would be utterly disgusted, and push him away. Maybe give him a little slap across the face."

Draco chuckled. "What if Blaise kissed you?" Here it comes…the moment of truth. Does she want to kiss me or Blaise? It all depends on her reaction. Draco smirked. He had her. If he looked carefully at her expression then he could read it and see if she wanted him or Blaise. Some might say he was crazy for wanting to know so badly.

Katey looked at him then looked away. She really didn't know how to answer this question. She did want to kiss Blaise…but she also wanted to kiss someone else. She knew who he was but she didn't know how he felt. She looked back at Draco. "To tell you the truth, I don't really know."

Draco's face fell. She didn't know. He didn't know what to say besides why. She didn't even know if she wanted to kiss her own boyfriend. He couldn't kiss her now. He doesn't even know if she wanted to kiss her boyfriend and if she didn't want to kiss Blaise her boyfriend…then why would she wanna kiss him.

"Oh…I see. Why don't you want to kiss him? I mean he's your boyfriend."

Katey looked a little shocked by the question. Why does he keep asking these kinds of questions, she thought.

"I don't know why. I mean…I kinda want to kiss him….but I wanna kiss someone else too."

Draco's face lit up. His heart beat would be beating off a scale if there was one nearby. His heart was beating like a mile a second. "Who is this other someone else?"

Katey shook her head but in a taunting kind of way. "I'm not telling you."

"Why not?"

"Cause then you'll tell that person."

Draco's face fell once again. So she didn't want to kiss him…it was some other lucky guy. "I see."

"Nothing personal. I just…don't want to tell you."

"I get it. It's okay."

"Sorry."

"For what?"

"I dunno…I guess for not telling you."

Draco laughed. "You actually think I care about who you wanna kiss or not?" Draco stood up. "Actually I don't care for you at all. I could fucking care less." Draco stormed out of the room.

Ginnie looked over at Katey with a questioning look. Katey looked at Ginnie and shrugged. Ginnie shrugged too and then went back to cleaning the room.

Katey pulled her mask back on and tears formed in her eyes as she started scrubbing the floors again.

(Sunday)

On Sunday Snape had the four do exactly what they did on Saturday. So it was boring all day. Hours and Hours past until they were finally done with their detention. After they did detention they went into the common room.

Katey looked around and saw how dead it was. "Where is everybody?"

Ginnie looked around and shrugged. "Dinner?"

Katey looked at the time. "I don't think so. It ended like an hour ago."

"Well…then I don't know."

"I'm just gonna go off to bed. See ya later guys." Katey walked upstairs and went to bed instantly. Ginnie followed suit.

Skylar and Malfoy sat in the common room for while before they both got up and went to bed.
