Disclaimer- I only own Jade, and her mommy (who by the way won't appear until later chapters) I'd also like to thank the people who reviewed my story: Sexxy Bexxy, Charmergirl07, and MoonSpiker. Thanks for your encouragement!

At 10:25, Harry, Ron, and Hermione sat at an outside table at Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlor. They pulled up an extra chair and waited for Jade to join them. Harry looked out in the crowds.
"There's something else," he said slowly. "What?" asked Hermione.
Harry looked back toward them. "She's not telling us something." "Who?" asked Ron. "You don't mean Jade, do you?"
Harry shook his head. "Of course I mean Jade." He lowered his voice to a whisper. "There's more to her story. I don't believe that she came here on vacation and that she lost her wand on her way. Remus knows something but he won't tell me. He says it's none of my business."
"That's because it is none of your business," said Hermione. "But. . ."
"She's right, mate," interrupted Ron. Harry sunk low in his chair and sighed. He wanted to know whatever Jade's past was and he wanted to know bad.
"Who knows, maybe she'll tell us after awhile," suggested Ron. "Tell you what?" asked Jade as she walked up to their table, her hands full of bags.
"Tell us if you're going to try-out for Quidditch this year," said Harry. "Oh," she said sitting down in the seat they had provided for her. "Umm, I don't think so. I'm more of a watcher than a player."
"Me too," agreed Hermione. "Now I have someone to watch with." Both girls laughed.
"Where are the bags from?" asked Ron picking one up and examining it closely. Jade smiled. "Your brother's store. They have some really good stuff in there."
Harry, Ron, and Hermione agreed and they all ordered their ice cream, a chocolate sundae for Jade, strawberry for Hermione, peanut butter for Ron, and raspberry for Harry. They kept a mellow conversation going while they ate there ice cream. Finally the bill was placed on the table. "If I'm not mistaken," said Jade smiling brightly. "Mr. Potter I believe you will be paying for my ice cream."
Harry blushed, Ron laughed, and Hermione looked around with mere confusion on her face.
"Yes, I do believe I will be paying for your ice cream," he answered pulling some Sickles out of his pocket.
Jade nodded her head in pleasure. "Ah the joys of bribery."

At eleven o'clock on the dot, all members of the group met outside Flourish and Blotts. Having all the shopping done, the eight people made there way back to Number 12 Grimmauld Place. Ginny retired to her room to get some last minute homework done. Ron and Hermione went to discuss some of their Prefect duties in Jade and Hermione's room, leaving Harry and Jade in the boy's room.
"So," he said, trying to think of anything to say. "Are you excited about school starting tomorrow?"
Jade looked as if she had been taken by surprise. "Whoa I didn't realize that tomorrow was already the first day of school. Where did the summer go?"
Harry shook his head. "I spent most of it at my aunt and uncle's house, they're Muggles." "Oh," she said. "I didn't know you lived with your aunt and uncle."
"Well yeah," he said. "My parents died a little bit after my first birthday." Jade bit her lip. "I knew that. I'm sorry I brought it up."
"No," he said sadly. "It's okay. I really don't mind talking about it anymore. Besides, it's not like I knew them in the first place."
"It's the same way with my father," Jade said. She looked directly at Harry, her eyes boring into him. Harry stared back, trying his best not to get lost in her eyes.
"Don't you wish you could have known them better, Harry?" she asked. "Don't you?" "Yeah," he said. "I do."
"Me too." She kept her strong stare on him for awhile until Mrs. Weasley called them down for lunch.
Jade smiled, got up from her seat on the bed, and took off down the stairs leaving Harry, still mesmerized by her beautiful eyes.
