Kait's POV
She woke up the next morning, feeling as if she had just woken up from a dream...that Harry Potter himself asked her out! She looked to Hermione's bed, where Hermione was standing beside it, trying to get the top button on her robes buttoned. She gave up and tapped it with her wand, and it buttoned. "'Morning, Hermione, having trouble?" She said, grinning sleepily.
"'Morning, Kait. Yes, it's my damned nails, they're too long!" She walked over to Kait's bed and tapped Kait with her wand, saying, "Aquarius", and water poured down over Kait's face onto her nightgown.
She shrieked, not expecting that. "I was going to take a shower, there's no need to give me one yourself!" She went to the bathroom and took herself a shower, coming out five minutes later with a head-full of wet ringlets.
"You'd better hurry, breakfast is in 30 minutes. I heard, if I'm not mistaken-" She looked at Lavendar. "That a certain black-haired, green-eyed fellow is waiting for you in the common room." Hermione smirked.
"Well, Hermione, a certain red-haired, brown-eyed fellow awaits you also, if I'm not mistaken on that." Lavendar giggled. Hermione set a glare on her. "Whoa, Hermione, don't do that, you look too much like Professor McGonagall when you do that."
This set everyone into fits of laughter. Parvati walked out of the bathroom. "What's so funny?"
"Nothing, Parvati, nothing." Lavendar said. They walked to the door. "We'll be waiting for you two in the common room." They left down the stairs.
"God, is he really waiting for me? I thought that was just a dream..." Kait said, awed and mystified.
"More like a dream come true for you." Hermione said.
"Hang on..." She walked to the door, poking her head out. "Harry?" She softly shouted, for some were still asleep.
He walked to the bottom of the staircase, looking up at her. "Yeah, Kait? 'Morning."
"I'll be down in three minutes. 'Morning to you too." She smiled.
"Alright. I'll be waiting. And tell Hermione that Ron IS waiting for her." He replied, sending a devious grin her way. She sent one back.
"'Kay." She closed the door. "Hermione, Ron IS waiting for you, Harry just confirmed that."
Hermione went pink. "Kait, you'd better dry and run a comb through your hair. You've got wet curls everywhere."
Kait tapped her hair with her wand, and it went dry. She then picked up a spelled comb, 'to keep natural curls looking soft and non-frizzy', and ran it through her hair. She applied gloss to her lips and donned her hat. She walked downstairs to Harry, with Hermione at her heels. "Hi, Harry."
Harry's POV
A soft voice entered his ears. He looked up into Kait's honey-coloured eyes.
"Hi, Harry."She said.
God, was he EVER glad he had switched some Galleons for Muggle money to get contacts for his vision. If not, he'd still be wearing glasses, looking dorky, and might even still be single. That would have been a tragedy. (A/N: Yeah...sure...) "Hi, Kait." He motioned to Ron. "Have you met Ron? Ron Weasley?"
"No, I don't believe I have." She smiled; he melted inside. "Nice to meet you, Ron."
"Nice to meet you too, Kait. 'Mione, come over here." Ron said, ears going a bit pink.
Harry watched as Ron and Hermione shared a kiss. He still wasn't used to the fact that his two best friends were going out. He and Kait joined Lavendar and Parvati in going, "Oooh!" The couple broke apart, Ron's ears and face going redder than his hair, Hermione's going near that color.
"C'mon, you guys. Breakfast is about to start. And I want to see Mum, Dad, and Lianne before classes start." Kait said, dragging Harry out of the portrait hole.
Kait's POV
She stepped down on a step, falling into it. She shrieked in suprise. How she hadn't managed to do this last night, she had no clue. Harry held a hand out to her, and she grasped it, being lifted out. "Thanks, Harry."
"No problem, Kait."
They kept hold of each others' hands, walking down to the entrance hall in 7 minutes. They ran into the Slytherins there. A white-blond boy with unreal blue eyes had his arm slung around Lianne's shoulder, messing her twin's dark auburn curls up. She looked to Harry, Hermione, and the rest of the crew behind or beside her."Would you please excuse me for a moment?" Hermione had told her about this boy, Draco Malfoy. She walked to Lianne. "Lia, could I have a word?"
Lia's sparkling sapphire blue eyes narrowed. "Sure, Kait." Lia walked with her to a corner, Malfoy still attached.
"Alone, please?" Kait plucked Malfoy's arm off her sister's shoulders. She heard applause from the Gryffindors. "Off you go, Malfoy." She was thinking, 'You prat.'
Malfoy scowled, then walked back to his cronies, having not been able to do nothing, as he would not hit a girl, even a Gryffindor.
"Lianne, why are you so happy about being in Slytherin? You've acted as if you hate me ever since you came in contact with that Malfoy prat on the train." Kait said, placing her hand on her hip, her golden eyes losing their sparkle. She watched her red-haired, blue-eyed twin closely through lowered lashes.
"Maybe I do, sister dearest." Lianne's eyes turned dull, like both of their eyes do when they're angry.
She pushed her sister away, tears growing in her eyes. She ran into the Great Hall, ignoring the laughter from the Slytherins and the gasps from her fellow Gryffindors. She sat at the Gryffindor table, throwing her head in her arms and sobbing. Harry, Hermione, Ron, Lavendar, and Parvati, not to mention Kalasin and Gary (Kait's and Lia's parents), rushed over to her.
"Kait, baby, what's wrong? Back away, students, let my daughter breathe." Kalasin barked the last sentence at the Gryffindors. They obyed. "Now, what's wrong?"
"Lia...I talked to her...."
"What about?"
"I told her that ever since the train ride, when she met that Malfoy prat, that she's been acting as if she hated me."
"What did she say?"
"She said...she said...."
"Professor Vidal, ma'am, she said, 'Maybe I do' loud enough for us to hear her." Harry said, helping Kait out. She shot him a thankful glance. He nodded.
"Lianne said that? Little Lianne Maria Vidal? I'll have a talk with her, Kait." Gary said, disappearing. (A/N: Lianne's middle name is pronounced: Muh-rye-uh, like Mariah Carey. Not Muh-ree-uh. Got it? o.o) He came back two minutes later, bringing Lianne over to the Gryffindor table. He ignored the glares other Gryffindors were giving Lianne. Kait's group was also glaring at Lianne, but under lowered lashes. "Lianne, apologize to your sister right now."
"I'm sorry, Kait." She spat out.
"Like you mean it, Lianne." Kalasin said. Her dark auburn ringlets were framing her face, bringing her violet eyes out, making her look dangerous. She looked positively furious.
"Kait, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it that way." Her sapphire eyes were sparkling again; she meant this.
"Well, I don't know if I can forgive you this time. Give me a while, alright? We're not just going to chuck this arguement out the back door like we usually do." Kait's eyes were still a dull gold.
"Girls, you working this out. I'll see both of you in Potions." Kalasin walked back to the High Table.
"And I'll see you Gryffindors in Arithmancy, if you're taking it." Gary's sapphire eyes were sparkling, and he pushed a moonlight(or sunlight)-coloured tuft out of his eyes and followed Kalasin. (A/N: Attention, Tamora Pierce and Harry Potter fans. I just noticed that both of Kait's and Lia's parents have names from the Song Of the Lioness, Immortals, and Protector of the Small Quartets from Tamora Pierce. But that's not where I got Gary's name. I got that from The Weakest Link on Monday night. And...Kait's hair is the same as her Dad's.) Lianne walked to the Slytherin table and sat down.
At that moment, over a hundred owls swooped in, startling the first years....and Lianne, it seemed. She heard her sister's shrill shriek over the noise. One snowy owl, one fully black owl, one barn owl, and one minute owl swooped over to Kait, Harry, Hermione, and Ron.
"Oy! Pig, stop that!"Ron scolded his minute owl, who was flying excitedly around his head.
She looked to Harry's snowy owl. "What's your owl's name, Ha-Ron, you named your owl PIG?"
"It's short for Pigwidgeon. My sister named him. I got it from-- OW! 'Mione, what was that for?!" Ron told her, before crying out in pain and scowling at Hermione.
Hermione had elbowed him. She cleared her throat loudly. Kait wondered what this was all about. Ron finally understood. "Ohhh....too many people around."
"To answer your question, Kait, my owl's name is Hedwig. What's your owl's name?" He pointed to her black owl.
"His name is Darkness. Hedwig....that's a nice name." She looked into Harry's emerald eyes. She pushed a blond curl out of her eyes. She had no crush on this boy. No, she was head-over-heels in love with him.
Harry's POV
He fell into those wonderful depths of honey again. He reached up to push a lock of her goddess-like hair behind her ear, to be interrupted by mocks from Fred, George, and Lee. He broke up pieces of bacon and hurled it at them. "Shut it, you three!"
He turned back to Kait. "Kait...where did you get your eyes from?"
"I got them from my Grandmum on my Mum's side, and from my uncle, Jonathan Dartner. And yes, he is Cain's Dad. Cain Dartner is my cousin." Kait said. She turned to look at her schedule, which her owl Darkness had brought her."Does anyone else have Arithmancy?"
"I do." Hermione said.
"Me and Ron have Divination. Wish that we'd taken Hermione's advice and dropped it." Harry said.
"Ron and I, Harry." Hermione said, gulping her glass of orange juice down.
When they finished breakfast, all of them left the Great Hall to head off to their classes. When they parted near the Arithmancy classroom, Hermione adn Ron kissed and went their different ways, leaving Harry and Kait alone. "I guess I'll see you in Potions, Kait..." Their faces were moving closer together.
"I guess so..." Their lips met. They broke apart a few seconds later, to seperate to their classes. Harry went to catch up with Ron, but watched as Kait entered Arithmancy and took her seat next to Hermione. He loved her. He just had no idea how to say it.
