Chapter Six- Question

Callie came out of her room the next day in a pair of blue jeans and a long sleeve tee shirt that said England's Quidditch Team on the front and the years they won the Quidditch World Cup on the back that was gray with dark blue writing.

"You are wearing that to the match?" asked Shelby as she watched her put on white tennis shoe.

"Yes, why?"

"Aren't you going to impress Harry?"

"Why should I? If he likes me dresses in jeans and tee-shirt, then he really likes me," said Callie pulling her hair up in a ponytail.

"Alright...if you say so. Oh, did Lola ever come home last night after she went to the bar?" asked Shelby.

"Yeah at three in the morning. I found her outside the door asleep or passed out. One of the two."

"Go figure."

Callie gave a smile. "Ready?"

"Yeah."

They disapparated to the Quidditch pitch. They walked inside and turned in their tickets.

"Miss Kingston. Here for Harry? He will be pleased," an elderly lady said handing them half of the ticket back.

"Thanks."

Callie shook her head and found their seats.

"Guess what Harry?" said Gabriel.

"Yeah?" asked Harry pulling on his shirt.

"Miss Kingston is here."

"Callie!"

"Yes."

"Who is Callie?" asked Damien.

"His girlfriend," said Gabriel.

"She's not my girlfriend. I've only went on one date with her," said Harry.

"What have me missed?" asked Lily.

"Harry's girlfriend is here," said Jordan.

"She's not my girlfriend!"

"She's here. Who is she?" asked Abbie.

"Catherine Kingston."

"Oh...what are you doing?" asked Lily?"

Harry was looking for a piece of parchment and something to write with. He didn't answer her question but found what he was looking for.

He wrote something down on the sheet of parchment and left the tent.

"So, what is this Catherine girl look like?" asked Troy.

"Damn its cold today," said Callie.

"You should have wore a sweatshirt or something," said Shelby.

"I would have if I wasn't so nice," she said.

"Miss Kingston?" a lady asked.

"Yes?"

"For you," she said.

"Oh, thank you," said Callie.

Callie took the note, opened it and couldn't help but smile.

"What does it say?" asked Shelby.

"Glad you could come. I'll see you after the match, I hope. HP."

"Aw...that is so sweet," said Shelby.

"I know. You might be going home alone," said Callie.

"Have fun with him. You deserve a guy like Harry who thinks, as for as I can tell from what you finally told me about your date, thinks highly of you. Just you because of who you are, not like Nicholas who likes you just because you are a princess," said Shelby.

"I know but what about my father? He doesn't want me to date anyone that is a wizard."

"You can't go against your heart Cat. You just can't because sooner or later, it is going to kick in."

Callie just smiled. She didn't want to think about it to much.

"And here are your teams..."

Callie was waiting outside the tent when Harry came out.

"Hey. I am glad you came," he said.

"I love Quidditch...excellent catch by the way," she said.

"Thanks. Would you like to go get some coffee?"

"Sure. I would love that. It's freezing out here."

"You didn't wear a cloak?"

"I did but Shelby didn't. She gets sick easier than I do, so I have it to her."

"Being a good friend"?

"Something like that."

"Let me get my things and we can to...want to come?"

"Um...sure."

Harry gave her a smile and took her had. He led her into the tent and though the second flap.

"Har- oh, hi Catherine," said Gabriel.

"Hi Gabriel," she said.

Callie soon realized that everyone on the team was staring at her. She looked up at Harry, who realized it.

"Guys, this is Catherine Kingston. Callie met Jordan, Lily, Abby, Troy, Damien and you know Gab," said Harry.

Everyone started to say hello and Callie relaxed around the team.

"Here," said Harry throwing something at her.

"What is it?"

"My sweatshirt for you to wear. Since you are cold. I don't need it," he said with a smile.

"Thanks."

She slid the dark blue sweatshirt over her head that read "England" and had years they won the cup on the back like her shirt.

"It's a bit big on you but-"

"Its perfect," she said with a smile.

"Ready?" he asked giving a smile.

"Sure."

They left after saying bye to everyone.

"Want to go to the Muggle or Wizard world?" asked Harry taking her hand.

"We aren't going anywhere in the muggle world with you and that robe," she said with a smile squeezing his hand.

"Funny...I can fix that. I know the perfect place."

"Alright."

Harry took her hand and apparated to a little café.

"I've never been here before," she said.

"I found it about a year ago. Quite cozy," he said.

Callie gave a smile and the stepped into the café. There were only a couple of tables around and only two other people were there.

"Hello, how may I help you?" asked a lady from behind the counter.

"I'll take a coffee, black and what about you Callie?" asked Harry.

"Um...a decaf latté."

"Coming right up your hig-"

"Thank you," said Callie cutting her off.

The lady nodded and disappeared. Harry looked down at her a bit confused but she just smiled up at him.

"Here you go," said the lady handing them their drinks.

"Thank you," said Harry paying for them.

Harry and Callie walked over and sat in one of the tables in the corner.

"So, how have you been?" he asked.

"Alright besides the fact that my father is dating someone that is only a few years older than I am," said Callie taking a drink.

"Really?"

"Yeah."

"What about your mother?" he asked.

"She died five years ago," she said softly.

"Oh, I'm sorry."

"Don't be. You didn't know."

Harry nodded slipping on his coffee.

"So, what about you?"

"Nothing really...just Remus bugging me."

"What about?"

"Well...truthfully, you," he said with a smile.

"Oh really? And what about me might I ask?"

"About how our date went and rather or not I was going to see you again. That kind of bugging."

Callie smiled and slid her hands inside his sweatshirt.

"Um...Callie I should tell you something..." he said looking at her.

"And what is that?"

"Well...after I meet you at the quidditch match, Ron was asking me all about you and I didn't know any of it because I didn't ask. Well...him being my best friend took it on himself to find out," he said looking at her to see her reaction.

"You know I'm a princess," she said, her head cocked to the side a bit.

"Yes," he said.

She nodded and looked away from him.

"But, I don't care Callie. I liked you before I knew that you were who you are," he said with a smile.

She smiled at him out of relief.

"Now that that is out of the way, I wanted to ask you something," he said.

"Okay," she said giving him her full attention.

"As you know, there is this thing called the Winter Ball and I kind of have to go... being me."

"Okay," she said just looking at him.

"Well, I was wondering if you would like to accompany me there?" he asked.

"I would love to," she said with a smile.

"Great! Um...it is Saturday."

"Saturday? This Saturday?"

"Yes."

"Okay...I guess I don't have much time to get a dress then," she said seeing to say that to her self.

"Sorry for the short notice," he said.

"No...that is fine. I am happy to go," she said. "Don't get me wrong."

"Alright...I'll pick you up Saturday at six?"

"Sounds great."

For the next little bit, they talked just about anything, from quidditch to childhood memories and days at Hogwarts. They just had a great time enjoying being with each other. Half way through the day, Harry looked over at Callie smiling widely and knew he was falling for her.
