Author Notes: Chapter switchin' going on ^.^' I intended on having Draco introduced in this chapter,but he will have to wait. Thank you to my second reviewer,AntiYou and another review from AnimeLuver =3. *twirls* The coupling should be obvious in the next couple chapters. One of the men is going to be left out in the end,as it must work out..lol.
No promises but,I'm going to try to get Draco into the story next chapter.
Realized I need to keep track of the days for festival purposes. Unlike game time,Spring 3 is not on a Monday this time X3 It was on a.. Thursday. Yes..
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Saturday,Spring 5.
Harry sats up the next morning in his bed,he had slept above the covers and it was rather chilly now. There was the loud thumping of rain coming from outside,most obviously,it was raining. Harry gazed around with his sleepy green eyes before getting up and stretching.
Hedwig was perched on the window sill,her head tucked beneath her wing. Harry walked over to her,stroking her gently on the head.
"Raining today," He said to himself,looking out the window,"Shouldn't do work outside in the rain,and a trip to the mountains would be better for a sunny day." He shook his head,and went abotu changing his robes and eating a short breakfast.
"Impervius." Harry pointed his wand at his round glasses as he spoke,nothing seemed to happen to him but he stepped outside. The effect was obvious then,his glasses and around them repelled the water that fell- making it easier to see and stop his glasses from fogging.
Checking the mailbox,for no apparent reason,he comes to a sudden realization. He stops and stares blankly at the little red mailbox,"Why is there a mailbox,did he ever get muggle mail?" He shook his head and continued on his way. 'Maybe I can get some tea or something at the bakery..' he thought as he headed towards the village.
Harry walked by the Florist,remembering the pretty girl her seen yesterday he had the urge to go in to see if she was there,perhaps become her friend. As he walked he watched the flower shop,his body wandering without his mind. His mind was brought back when he suddenly crashed into something, knocking the pretty girl from his mind.
"Ah!"
Whatever it was,it was alive;and most likely a person by the sound of it. Both of them had fallen over,with a groan Harry got to his feet and looked down at who he had crashed into.
A man with mousey hair was sitting on the ground,water dripping down his face as he looked at a bunch of parchment and a broken camera that lay on the ground,"Oh no! It's broken!"
"Erm.." The man looked up at Harry,who held out his hand to help him up,"I'm sorry,I wasn't watching where I was going."
"My camera.." He bent down and picked it up,and shook his head. Then looked up at Harry,"Harry! Wow! So nice to meet you,I'm Colin Creevey. I work at with at the post office!"
Harry stared for a moment,"Er,nice to meet you too."
Colin smiled brightly,"Too bad my cameras broken,I'd love to take a picture of you." This threw Harry off a bit,he didn't expect someone to want his picture,let alone think it'd be a good picture with him out in the rain. As this thought finished going through Harry's head,Colin bent down to pick up all the wet parchment,some of them had ink on them,and the ones that hadn't did now since the ink had run.
"I'm sorry about that,I should have been watching." Harry watched Colin pick up the bits.
"No no,it's alright! Are you hurt?"
"Why woul-" Harry decided not to finish that,he shook his head.
"You should come inside,you don't know what might get you in weather like this."
The misty voice came from the direction of the Bakery, Colin almost fell over again, and Harry turned sharply. Luna was standing there,he should have recognized the voice from yesterday. Behind Luna,in the doorway of the bakery, stood a young woman with vibrant red hair,Harry recognized her from yesterday too- it was Ginny.
"Come inside and get warmed up," Luna said again,waving to the door. Ginny walked back into the Bakery,followed by Luna.
Luna pulled a table from the corner of the bakery to make room for some more chairs, a round-faced man with dark hair came from the back room carrying some folding chairs. He set them up around the table,and Luna smiled at Harry as the man went to the back room,"That is Neville,despite his talent with plants he works and stays here."
Harry was busy looking around the Bakery,there was a glass display case beside a counter that had cake,pie and cookies in it. Behind that was a shelf with some ingredients and untinsils for baking and cookie. By one wall there was a table that had some plants on it,a couple of them were in bloom-Harry guessed,after what Luna told him,they were Neville's. The color scheme seemed to be pale blue and white.
Neville came back from the kitchen,he was carrying a tray towards them. Suddenly he tripped over his own feet,loosing his balance; Luna was too quick for that,she turned and grasped the tray just before the teapot tipped over,too late though,was she to save two of the teacups. Neville stopped himself from falling,but looked down,muttering to himself and grabbing a broom.
Luna shook her head and set the tray on the table,"We keep a broom handy." She said brightly,"I'll get some new cups." And she turned to the shelf behind the counter,taking off two cup and saucers.
"I'm sorry about the cups," Neville said to Luna as he joined her, Colin, Ginny,and Harry at the table.
"It's alright," Luna replied,shaking her head. Then she turned to the others,Colin was eating one of the cookies she had put on the table.
Ginny smiled and glanced at Harry,"The weather is usually nicer than this, do you like the Village so far Harry?"
"I haven't seen much of it," Harry said at once,"But it is nice." He added quickly,not wanting to offend anyone.
After about an hour of tea and cookies,Ginny was talking quietly with Luna,and Colin had left because he had work to do. Harry got to his feet,"I should get going." He nodded at the three remaining people,"Thank you for the tea and cookies..er..how much?"
Neville smiled,"Nothing."
Luna nodded,"We invited you in,we wouldn't charge a guest. Ask Ginny."
Ginny shook her head,and grinned.
As the rain began to let up,Harry found himself wandering on the other side of the town. He didn't realize he had gone across the ditch,he was near the library and the midwife's house. Wondering where he should go now,"I don't think I'll visit the midwife.." he shook his head,remembering the knowing look Dumbledore gave him when telling him that. "Maybe I'll go see this 'Potions Master',then."
Arriving at the shop he read a sign on the door aloud,"'Open 9 - 5,closed Weekends.' Ok,it's not open today then." He shrugged,and stood there,trying to decide where he wanted to go next.
'May as well,' he thought to himself,glancing towards the library,"Maybe I'll find something useful,or interesting." And he stepped into the library,once again wet from the rain.
The librarian, Hermione, was sitting at a desk by the door- absorbed in a great book. She didn't seem to notice he came in at the time. A small girl with black hair was sitting at the foot of the desk,she had a picture book and was just staring at one of the pictures- it was evident she could not read.
Harry took a couple steps from the doorway after drying off a bit,he looked down at the girl and at the picture she was looking at. It was of a young lady,she seemed to glow in the drawing. She was sitting by a pond,her hair in two buns- one on each side of her head. From the left bun fell a long braid of her shiney green hair,and tucked in the right was a flower. She wore long pale bluish white robes that fell passed her feet..
"She's pritty,isn't she?"
Harry jumped,the little girl was looking straight at him,"Er.. yes."
"She's the Harvest Goddess!" The little girl said,then suddenly gasped,"I'm not supposed to talk to strangers!" She stared at Harry.
Harry stared back for a moment,"Well," he said,trying to think of a way to make her feel better,"I'm Harry Potter,who are you?"
"I'm Parvati Patil." Her face lit up,"Ok,we're not strangers now!"
Harry smiled,"Do you like to read?"
"I don't know how,I just like this because of the pictures." Parvati smiled,"I'm learning to read,though!"
Harry nodded,"Well,you have fun." Harry looked away from the little girl and over at Hermione,who was now looking at him. It seemed she noticed him talking to Parvati.
"She comes here every rainy day," Hermione told him when he walked over,"She's interested in the Goddess."
"I..see.."
"No you don't." Hermione said in a bossy sort of voice,laughing a bit. "You don't know who the Goddess is,do you?"
"No." Harry admitted.
"She is the Harvest Goddess,or the Goddess of Spring. She is exactly what she sounds like, there is a festival to honor her and celebrate Spring later in the season." Hermione promptly explained, he could tell if she read it somewhere,she paid attention,"She is supposed to live somewhere in the mountains,but no one has seen her that can recount it. I can only picture Dumbledore meeting her."
Harry nodded slowly,trying to understand that exactly,"Right.."
Hermione smiled,"Yes."
Harry nodded again,"Well,I should be going.."
