Chapter Two: It Only Took A Minute
A/N: n_n;; The second chapter, yay, yay, not many of you 'yay' about it, but I dun care, because I LIKE writing this.Frankly, I don't give a damn if you flame me...... Actually, I do.....but....It doesn't matter if you do or not...IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT MY NAME IS! Don't ask...-high off ice breakers- But, those of you who didn't flame me on Chapter One, I'm glad you liked it. To one particular person...I emailed you about this...o.o I will try to change it in chapter four, but for now, I've already gotten chapter three written up....Maybe if you send me some advice in email, I'll change it more. Oh, and, another author....You can be my beta reader, I won't post any Tamora Pierce fics and let you read them first...No offense, or anything....but, you can be my HP beta reader....That means I need TWO beta readers.....Anyone else like Tamora Pierce, that's read all of her Tortallan series books, all the way to Squire? EMAIL ME PLEASE - SailorUranus217@aol.com- -Angelgurl41137@aol.com- -WiId Mage@aol.com- And....PLEASE review....be a responsible reader...OH! I meant to put this in in the last chapter, when Ron finds out they're twins. -"Ron, they're FRATERNAL twins." Hermione said. "Oh." Ron blushed.- And anyway, if you flame me, I'll just do a flame-freezing charm and enjoy a gentle, tickling sensation, and while I'm burning, I'll pretend I'm shrieking in pain while actually laughing inside, so there :P!
Disclaimer: I own the twins and their parents, their old school, and their old Headmaster's name. Tamora Pierce owns the names 'Kalasin' and 'Lianne'. JK owns the rest. Love you all, (Those of you who review, at least ¬¬ WITHOUT flames.) Britti

Lianne's POV
She watched as Kait walked to the Gryffindor table and sit next to a bushy-haired girl. She saw Harry Potter sitting two seats away from the bushy-haired girl, and a flame-haired boy sitting next to the girl, holding her hand. She saw three other flame-haired people at the same table, two of them twins who looked as if they were in their last year, and the other a girl, who looked about a year younger than them.
She snorted.
"Vidal, Lianne!" Professor McGonagall shouted.
She walked up to the stool, delicately placing the hat on her head. A voice placed itself beside her ear. "Hmm...good potential, like your sister....What house shall I put you in?" The sorting hat whispered into her ear.
'Not Hufflepuff or Gryffindor, please....' She thought.
"Hmmm....not Hufflepuff or Gryffindor, eh? You're a potential--SLYTHERIN!" The Sorting Hat shouted the last word to the Great Hall and its occupants.
She looked to her sister, who had just thrown her head down on the Gryffindor table. She smirked, going to the Slytherin table. A pug-faced girl welcomed her. "Hi, you-Lianne, is it?- sit here." The pug-faced girl pushed a chair out. "I'm Pansy Parkinson."
"Hi, Pansy." She said, sitting down. She had a feeling she was going to like it in Slytherin.
Kait's POV
She watched Lianne sit next to a pug-faced girl. She turned to Hermione. "Hermione? Who's that girl sitting next to Lianne?"
She watched Hermione look towards the Slytherin table, then her eyebrows slanted up in a look of disgust and suprise. "Your sister is sitting next to Pansy Parkinson." She shuddered.
"Sounds.....ugly. Her name surely doesn't match her face." Kait said, both of them loud enough for Pansy Parkinson to hear them. She looked at Pansy. "Oh, did I say that? I meant that she needs a new name, like, say....Hmm....Hermione, what do you think?"
Hermione grinned wickedly. "Flobberworm."
"Yes, that's it. Her face surely matches that name." Kait and the rest of the Gryffindor table exploded into fits of laughter. She grinned sheepishly, looking around. She landed on a head with messy black hair with emerald green eyes. Her mother had said something, what was it? Oh, yes...her best friend Lily Evans had married James Potter, and their son--"You're Harry Potter!"
He laughed. "And yet, you didn't see my scar, for my hair. How did you know, Kaitlyn?"
"My Mum, the Potions master, was your Mum's best friend....I'm sorry Voldemort killed them, Harry....He killed my Dad's brother and sister, because they were in Ravenclaw, not Slytherin....I suppose they were wanted as Death Eaters."
People around the Gryffindor table and the ones at Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff tables that heard her say 'Voldemort' flinched. The boy next to Hermione even muttered, "Don't say his name."
Harry looked at him. "Ron, it's just a name. Fear of the name increases fear of the thing itself, don't you remember?"
Kait had said the exact same thing that Harry had, minus the 'Ron, it's just a name.' part. Harry looked at her. "You know that too?"
"Yes, that's what Headmaster Dumbledore and Headmaster Midneha said. Of course, old Midneha learned it from Dumbledore himself." Kait said.
"Headmaster Midneha? Isn't he the most powerful wizard, under Dumbledore and You-Know-Who?" Hermione said.
"Yes, Hermione." Kait sighed, ready to eat.
"And now, let the feast begin!"Dumbledore said. The bowls and plates in front of them filled with all sorts of food and drink. They filled their plates and goblets, eating and drinking until they were full to bursting. "Let's now sing the school song."
"Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hoggy Warty Hogwarts,
Teach us something please,
Whether we be old and bald,
Or young with scabby knees,
Our heads could do with filling
With some interesting stuff,
For now they're bare and full of air,
Dead flies and bits of fluff,
So teach us things worth knowing,
Bring back what we've forgot,
Just do your best, we'll do the rest,
And learn until our brains all rot."
They headed for the Gryffindor common room, stopping in front of a portrait of a very fat lady with a pink silk dress on. Hermione shoved her way to the front. "The password is 'centaur hooves'!" She said. As a prefect, she got to know the passwords before anyone else. They went in, and she followed her new friend to a ring of big, squashy armchairs in front of the fireplace. She sat in the one next to Hermione's. "So, how do you like Hogwarts so far, Kait?" Hermione prodded.
She stifled a yawn. "It's cool. A lot more interesting than that of Lerenear's halls." (A/N: I had the weirdest impulse to type in 'rufus' instead of 'cool' because I saw Never Been Kissed the other day on HBO. Those of you who've seen it know what I am talking about.)
"I hope you like it here, Kaitlyn." Harry had sat in the armchair beside hers.
She turned her head, and her eyes immediately locked on Harry's emerald-green ones. She was suprised to find her heart beating fiercely in her chest, and millions of large butterflies beating the sides of her stomach. She swallowed.
Harry's POV
He looked into Kait's eyes, falling into the depths of intense honey-coloured eyes. His schoolboy crush on Cho Chang dropped from his mind immediately. What he felt now was no crush whatsoever. He found that this was very uncomfortable. His heart was pounding, and it felt as if butterflies in his stomach were trying to force their way up. He picked up a bottle of non-alcoholic butterbeer (from the kitchens. Fred's and George's treat.) and took a few gulps of it. "So, Kaitlyn, play any quidditch?"
She smiled, her white teeth flashing. He melted inside. "Used to be one of the best chasers on my house's team at Lerenear. My sister was a very good beater...pray Slytherin doesn't need a beater."
"Oh, cool. I hope they don't either......Well...Quidditch tryouts are on Thursday, two weeks from this Thursday. You can come, if you want to. We need some reserves." Harry said.
"If I want to? Harry, I'll be there." Kait said.
Alicia Spinnet walked over, sporting a caster leg. "Harry, I've got bad news. Mum says I have to drop off the Quidditch team, or be a reserve, until my leg heals." She looked very unhappy.
"WHAT?! But Madam Pomfrey can mend a leg in two seconds!" Harry shouted, causing the rest of the Gryffindors to stare at him.
"Mum wants it to heal the Muggle way. I'm sorry, Harry." She hugged him, and walked to the seventh year dorms.
"Oh, this is just great......now we need a Chaser....QUIDDITCH TEAM!! MEETING!" Harry said, shouting over the noise that had returned to the common room. Fred, George, Angelina, and Katie rushed over. They looked around, but to no avail, did they find Alicia. "Guys, Alicia has dropped herself to a reserve due to her Mum, who insists on making her daughter have her leg healed the Muggle way. Now we need a regular Chaser, not to mention Keeper. AND a Captain, too."
"Harry, I think we should vote now. For captain." Fred said. (A/N: Hey, that rhymes. La, la, la. Don't ask, I'm hyper D)
"Alright." Harry took out a scrap of parchment, an ink bottle, and a quill. He wrote down 'Angelina', as she was oldest, and passed it to Fred. When he got it back, he put it down. "Okay...Fred, you first."
"I voted for.......Harry." Fred grinned.
"So did I." Said the rest of the team, minus Harry.
"What?!" Harry looked as if he were going to faint.
"It's unanimous, Harry. You're Captain. You're going to still be here when we leave, so we thought we should vote you in. Simple as that. So, cap, when's the first practice?" George patted Harry on the back.
"I dunno...maybe....AFTER tryouts? Don't you think that's the best time? Hmm?" He said, getting a laugh and a nod out of all of them. They split, the girls heading for their dorm, the guys heading for their corner. Harry stayed in his seat.
Kait's POV
"Hermione?" She said, tiring.
"Hmm, Kait?" She looked up from 'Hogwarts, a History.' (A/N: ::mutter.::As if she hasn't read it enough... o.o;;)
"Where's our dorms?"
"Up there." Hermione pointed to a staircase to the right.
"Okay. I'm going to bed. G'night, Hermione."
"'Night, Kait."
She turned, walking towards the staircase. A call from a familiar male voice stopped her in her tracks.
"Kaitlyn, wait!" Harry said, jogging over to her.
"Hmm, Harry?"
"I know I barely know you or anything....but...(A/N: I LOVE THIS PART -tears of joy-)" He blushed. "Willyougooutwithme?"
She smiled, looking into his emerald eyes. "Alright."
"Okay, Kaitlyn. Goodnight." He started walking back to his squashy armchair.
"Goodnight! Oh, and Harry?"
"Yes?" He stopped, turning around.
"Call me Kait."
He smiled. "Alright, Kait."He headed towards the boy he had called Ron earlier.
She went upstairs, heart considerably lighter. She found the bed with her trunk at the foot of it. She propped it open, changing into her nightclothes. She climbed inside the curtains and fell onto the bed. This was going to be a VERY good year.

Don't tell me how i had a vison
That this day would come to be
Call it luck, call it intuition
Here I am (here we are), isn't that enough
For a little bit of reality
Fate is good, fate can be real
If you believe it's what you feel
Oh, what a moment
When i looked into your eyes
I knew i got the prize
Oh, baby, what a sweet surprise
It only took a minute, to let you in my life
It only took a minute, for me to realize
It only took a minute, and i knew just what to do
It only to a minute to fall in love with you
Time and time again, boy I've always been
The only one who think things through
You got a hold on me, set me free
Who would've known that out of the blue
I discovered the magic of all my dreams that night
With just one look at you
I knew that everything would be all right
It only took a minute, to let you in my life
It only took a minute, for me to realize
It only took a minute, and i knew just what to do
It only to a minute to fall in love with you
Here I am, isn't that a vision(Only took a minute)
Here I am, isn't that a vision(Only took a minute)
Oh, what a moment
When i looked into you eyes

Oh, baby, what a sweet surprise
It only took a minute, to let you in my life
It only took a minute, for me to realize
It only took a minute, and i knew just what to do
