HP isn't mine, but Kitty J. is.
A/N: Here's chapter 2! Oh, and
by the way, I forgot to mention this, but this all takes place in
Ron, Draco, and Kitty's 7th and final year at Hogwarts. That's
important to know because of the events that take place at the end of
the fic.
Chapter 2
Draco sighed. "What now?"
he thought. "Now that Kitty knows how I feel, how will she
react?" He reassured himself that Kitty wasn't the type of
person to stop talking to someone just because of their feelings. He
turned over in his bed. It was really lonely in his vacant room.
Crabbe and Goyle should have been in there with him, sharing the
dorm, but due to their lack of passing grades (and lack of brains),
they had transferred to another (easier) school of magic. Draco was
very relieved to get rid of the stupid boulders that would follow him
everywhere, their mouths always full, but now he had no one to "talk"
to late at night when he couldn't sleep.
He turned over in his
bed again, trying to shut thoughts of Kitty out of his mind and get
to sleep, but so far he had been failing to do so. He had just shut
his eyes when he heard a tap on his window. He got up and cautiously
opened it to let an owl in. It landed on his bed and he instantly
recognized the owl to be
Kitty's.
Kitty
fell down onto her bed and sighed. She was extremely excited that she
had received the note from Draco, but now she was facing a dilemma.
How was she ever going to get together with him? Telling him how she
felt wasn't going to be that hard, but meeting with him and
satisfying her thirst for him? That was something even Head Girl
Hermione couldn't answer. Kitty got up and grabbed a piece of
parchment and a quill and began her letter to Draco.
"Dear
Draco, Of course I will still talk to you! How could I ever stop? My
feelings for you are too strong. I'm not just talking about friendly
feelings either. I mean I want you. You read right. I can't stop
thinking about you and I want to be with you. But I don't think that
can ever happen. You know that I love Ron a lot too, but you're a big
part of me as well, and that's my problem. I can't hurt Ron, and I
don't want to hurt you. Maybe you have thought about this and you
have a plan or something. Owl back ASAP.
Luv ya lots,
Kitty"
She folded up the parchment, wrote "Draco"
on the front, and headed up to the
owlery.
The
next morning, Kitty woke up and happily remembered that it was
Saturday. She rubbed the sleep from her eyes and looked at her
blanket to discover a letter lying neatly on top of her stomach. She
jumped up and tore open the envelope. She recognized the scribble to
be Draco's. It read:
"Dearest Kitty, Are you for real?
You like me too? That's fantastic! And to answer your question about
a "plan", yes, I do have something worked out. Just leave
it up to me and I'll handle everything. Expect our first real meeting
to be Monday. I won't tell you how we'll meet, but expect a surprise
in Potions that day. Love, Draco"
Kitty smiled as she
folded the note tucked it safely away. She got up, dressed, and
headed down to breakfast. When she arrived, she was immediately
greeted by Ron and Harry. Ron swept her up in a passionate kiss. She
did not pull away and gladly returned it, but ended it when she
caught a glance of Draco's face. He was looking heartbroken. She gave
him a reassuring wink and turned back to Ron.
"What was
that for, love?" she questioned, knowing exactly what it was
for. She had hoped he had remembered.
"Well, maybe
because it's our one year anniversary today," Ron pretended to
wonder.
"Oh, is it?" Kitty pretended to be confused.
"Oh, now I remember! Something about meeting a certain someone
about a year ago and falling in love with them, but I can't quite
remember who." She laughed as Ron gave her a friendly shove and
a kiss on the cheek.
"Guess who you're spending the day
with," Ron said.
"Umm, let's see," she
pretended to look around. "Oh I know! Harry, I didn't know you
were going to spend the day with me! What about Hermione?" Ron
shook his head but was soon stopped by a kiss from Kitty. He pulled
out a tiny box.
"Here," he said, extending the box
to Kitty. "Happy anniversary!"
Kitty opened it and
gasped. "Oh Ron, you shouldn't have!" She took out the
sapphire bracelet that the box held. "It's beautiful!"
"Just
like you," Ron added. Little did he know that Draco was thinking
the same thing.
"I've got something for you too,"
Kitty said, as handed a wrapped package to Ron. It was long and thin,
with a big bulk at the bottom. Ron tore off the wrapping and
gasped.
"A StarJet 5000???" he exclaimed, admiring
his new broom. "Wow, how did you manage to get one? There are
only 5 in production right now!"
Kitty grinned. "I
have my connections," she giggled.
The two lovebirds
embraced each other and sat down for breakfast, discussing how they
would spend their special day together, with Draco jealously watching
from the Slytherin
table.
Kitty
sighed, full of content. It had been a perfect day. She and Ron had
snuck off to Hogsmeade, dragging Harry and Hermione with them. The 4
of them had a great time, and Hermione had finally convinced them to
sneak back to the school at around 2 in the morning. She couldn't
wait until Monday though. She was looking forward to her meeting with
Draco.
"Alright
class, you're dismissed. Everyone except for Miss Jameson and Mister
Malfoy." Ron gave Kitty a questioning look and she pretended to
be confused. "I said you're dismissed, Mr. Weasley,"
Professor Snape growled. Ron muttered something about waiting for
Kitty outside and stalked out of the room.
"Miss Jameson.
It has been brought to my attention that Potions isn't your strongest
subject. Therefore, I would like for Draco to tutor you every evening
from now on," Snape concluded, "starting tonight."
"Yes
sir," Kitty and Draco said in unison, secretly smiling.
"Good.
You may use the empty classroom on the 2nd floor as your meeting
place. That is all."
Draco and Kitty smiled at each
other, but quickly stopped, remembering Ron was waiting
outside.
"Tonight," Draco mouthed and walked away.
Kitty followed after him.
"So, what did Snape want?"
Ron asked.
"Oh nothing. He just wanted Draco to tutor me
in Potions, that's all."
Ron started grumbling that he
could have done it and that Kitty didn't need to waste her time with
a Slytherin, but Kitty wasn't listening. She was busy thinking about
her meeting in the empty
classroom.
A/N:

to have a longer one next time! In the next chapter, the meeting!
I'll try to update asap! Please review!
