Chapter Three: Can't Laugh With Out Smiling

*************

Cat Granger walked though the trains with her head high and nothing was going to ruin her day. So far it had been great. Her Uncle Harry had given her a book practically written by famous seekers. They wrought about tricks and things like that. Her mom had made her favorite breakfast, French toast. She was going to see Arron and Bruce; her most bestest friends in the world today.

"Granger!" Two people yelled behind her.

Cat turned to see Arron Weasley running toward her. His shoulder length layered dark red hair flying behind him. A smile on his face and his dark chocolate colored eyes shinning. The face that look exactly like his father's. Fred Weasley. It was weird that her two best friends were both cousins. The two were quite different but yet very alike.

Next to Arron was Bruce Weasley who had the same face as his cousin. George Weasley's son. Yet Bruce's eyes were the lightest brown she'd even seem and his bright red hair was short and spikey.

While Arron was the true brains of the Gryffindor trio (Cat, Arron, and Bruce)'s pranks. Well he wasn't as smart as Cat but still he was smart. Bruce on the other hand could crack jokes and play chess like no one else. Arron was a bit more serious about things then Bruce but he was also the coolest guy. He'd make a joke in a serious voice and he just had this un-describable coolness about him. Unlike Bruce Arron wouldn't say everything on his mind. Cat found herself doing that sometimes a lot too. This got her into quite a lot of trouble.

Arron and Bruce were also the most loyalist friends she'd had. Well they were kinda of the only best friends she'd ever had. The three also were on the Quidditch team together. The two redheads were the beaters and had been since second, last year and she'd been team seeker since first year, like her Uncle Harry.

She hugged the two once she reached them.

"Ewww girl cooties!" Bruce pulled back from her quick hug. That comment got a hit on both sides of his head; one from Cat and the other from Arron.

"Don't be a jerk." From Cat.

"Idiot." From Arron.

"What?" Bruce looked between him two closest friends.

Cat and Arron both rolled their eyes and ended up looking at each other. They started to laugh and Bruce did after awhile to. A few other students gave them some looks when they passed the three. The three still laughing slightly found there way to an empty compartment.

They found seats and soon it was silent between the three. Arron and Bruce sat on one side with their feet up on Cat's side. Cat in turn sat her own feet between the two redheads from her side.

"So how was your twos summer?" Bruce asked.

"Same old same old. Played a little Quidditch, pulled a few pranks. Nothing eventful." Arron shrugged.

Bruce looked to Cat.

Cat smiled. "I found out who my dad is."

The two boys sat up. Their looks screamed 'WHO?'

Cat looked between the two. "I'm not telling. If I ever meet him, then I'll tell you."

"But-" The two boys started.

"No buts! That's my rule, deal with it."

"Fine!" Both boys crossed the arms across their chest at the same time.

Cat shook her head; she could swear those two were twins sometimes.

The compartment door slide open. "Well I see the lower and filthier part of the population of this pathetic school had returned for another year."

The three glared at the owner of the voice. Phoebe Finnigan was standing there looking disgusted with the three. The girl had long dark brown hair and eyes that matched the shade of her hair. Her two 'friends' behind her.

Cindy Chang who was like Phoebe the Gryffindor gangs age. Cindy looked very almost exactly like her mother expect that no one thought she was as pretty as her mom. Plus Cindy had hazel eyes. If Cidny wasn't such a bitch to Cat she might feel sorry for her. The girl had no idea who her dad was, and neither did her mom. Everyone was always telling her she wasn't as pretty as her mom or as smart and she was nothing compared to her mother.

Also standing next to Phoebe was Nate Longbottom. He was a big boy, but not fat big, like tall and of shit he could beat me up big boy. He had really dark blonde hair that you could barley tell it was brown and very bark brown eyes. No one, including the boys' parents knew how he got into Slytherin but he did. No one was really sure why any of the three had been placed into Slytherin but since then they were always together and picking on about everyone.

"Oh great, these three." Bruce rolled his eyes.

"The three who have no life at all so they must and try and piss people off because they don't know the meaning of nice to get into other people's lives." Cat smirked.

"Hey why don't you three go bug some one else. I'm sure Travis would like it if you did anything to him CC." Arron didn't even move from stairing out the window. He was always calm when it came to teasing her, it came to him naturally, and then again teasing any Slytherin came to him naturally. Travis Boot was a Hufflepuff who's had a crush on Cidny forever. She hated him, found him disgusting, and wouldn't even talk to him unless forced or they were partners for a class assignment.

"Oh fuck yourself asshole Weasley." Cidny stormed off, her black robes flapping behind her.

Arron smiled to himself the yelled, "Real original."

"Aren't you two going after your sposed friend and help her?" Cat asked. Nate didn't change expressions but something in Phoebe's eyes flashed.

Nate rolled his eyes. "Cid's a big girl she can handle herself."

Phoebe glared at Nate. "Not as big as you to any eye. Now come on!" She grabbed him by the collar of his robes and pulled him out of the compartment and slammed the door shut on her way out.

"Thank you for shutting the door." Bruce smiled. As did Arron and Cat at his joke, if you could call it one.

The door slid open. "What was the slamming about?"

Orlando (AN: I couldn't resist naming him that, both Orlando Bloom and Sean Wood are total hotties) Wood but all called him Orli or the Professors called him Mister Wood walked in still in muggle clothes, he was a year older then Arron, Bruce, and Cat. Cat had meet his parents and the only way to describe him was to say he looked exactly like his dad. Expect for those big blue, the bluest blue she'd ever seen, eyes he was his father at the age of 14. He was also, despite his young age to some, the captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team and star chaser.

Behind him was his twin sister, Kathy Bell Wood everyone called her Bell. She was the same height as her brother but had a smaller build. She looked almost exactly like her mother expect for her big brown eyes. She was the team keeper for the Gryffindors. Since both Bell and Cat were the only girls in their class in Gryffindor they shared a room.

While Orli was mostly all about Quidditch and slacked off on his studies quite a lot. Kathy was almost to smart and just saw Quidditch as a sport, a sport she was truly blessed to be the best at but she cared more for her studies then Quidditch.

The two brunettes sat on each side of Cat.

"Hey, guys!" Cat smiled at them.

"Hey!" The twins said in unision.

"What did-" Cat started.

"Cat knows who her dad is." The two redheads sitting across from them interrupted.

"WHAT?" The twins yelled.

Cat wanted to scream. All she knew was her dads name, what was the big deal? "YEAH SO WHAT?"

Then there was a silence.

Cat sighed. "All I know is his name. I don't even know what he looks like."

"Then couldn't you just tell us his name?" Kathy asked.

Cat rolled her eyes. "No!"

"But-" Bruce started.

"NO!" Cat scream. "Can't you guys just realize that I don't want you knowing about him because I don't even know him. All I know is his name. I don't know what he looks like or what he acts like, or anything about him. So unless I know I don't want anyone else knowing. If I ever meet him then I'll get to know him and tell you guys. Cause hello you guys are my best friends, but this is a me thing. Get?"

"I got ya." Arron smiled at her. He got this was something she had to sort out by herself. Plus if he made her any madder she'd do something worse then kill him.

"Same here!" Bruce was looking down. He was thinking the same thing as Arron but he really wanted to know.

Kathy hugged the girl next to her.

Cat knew that was all she needed from Kathy. She looked at Orli. His blue eyes were boring into her. She had no idea what he was thinking and she really wanted to know. "Orli?"

"I won't push it." He turned and looked out the window. He didn't want Cat to go through her life without knowing her dad at all. If she'd at least tell everyone his name then maybe Kathy could find out something about him and where to find him. That way Cat would know her father for what he really is instead of some person she made up in her head.

Cat smiled. Everything was going to be fine and normal this year and now she could just forget about her father. She didn't need him in her life that bad..or at all for that matter.

"I know what will cheer you up." Bruce smiled after a few minutes of silence.

"Do we really want to know?" Orli asked.

Cat smiled and raised an eyebrow at Bruce.

Bruce took a deep breath. "LA LA LA lala." He screamed.

The two Wood's put their hands over their ears while Cat and Arron just squinted.

Bruce kept LALAing while Cat yelled, "How is this spose to cheer me up?"

"I'm not sure," Arron snickered and smiled.

Cat smiled also and started giggling, she couldn't help it. Bruce was had such a horrible voice and rhythm it was just to funny.

"Stop that!" Kathy started to giggle.

Orli rolled his eyes but grinning as if trying to hold back a laugh. "Damn, when one of you starts the other goes too." He laughed out loud.

Arron was now on the floor laughing. Kathy soon joined him. Bruce had stopped the horrible singing if you could call it and was now laughing to. Cat and Orli were leaning on each other from falling anywhere they were laughing so hard.

"Told ya it would cheer you all up." Bruce laughed.

"Damn you Wesley." Cat smiled. (AN: Sorry if any of you disapprove of my having third years cuss, but please remember they are 13, and I've been cussin', without parents and teachers around since I was 11 or 12, or earlier. Plus, weren't you people cussing by the time you were 13? And yes I say cussin' instead of swearing, just because.)

The group of five were smiling and laughing. They didn't know and probably didn't care what fools they looked like. The entire group knew was that couldn't stop laughing and therefor couldn't stop smiling. Of course they were third years and had no clue of what was to happen later that would end in a good or bad way.
