Kelli hastily closed her mouth, embarrassed that she had gaped at a total stranger. All the details of her dream flowed back into her head like rushing water. The dark haired boy was totally hot, and gave her shivers by just looking at her. His body was well-built and tan, showing off his muscles. Of course, in the dream, he was a little bit paler. He gave her a lopsided smile and held out a hand. "Hi! You must be Kelli Matthews. I'm Harry, Harry Potter."
Why did that name seem vaguely familiar, Kelli asked herself. She shook Harry's hand and gazed into his eyes. They were green and shone like emeralds, identical to hers. "Umm, hi. Nice to meet you."
"Harry, why don't you help Kelli bring her bags upstairs. I need to ask mum what we're having for lunch," Hermione said with a mysterious twinkle in her eye as she glanced back and forth at each of them.
"But Hermione, weren't your parents take-ow! What'd you do that for?" Harry said when Hermione stepped on his toe quite hard.
"Oh I don't know, maybe because you're being really stupid. Anyway, go help Kelli," Hermione replied, shaking her head as she ventured on into the kitchen.
"Er, um, I guess I'll show you to your room," Harry said uncomfortably while he grabbed her bags and started up the stairs with Kelli trailing behind him.
He opened the door to her room and Kelli gawked at the beauty of it. The ceiling and walls were a dark midnight blue, with shining stars pasted all over. The floor was a dark mossy green color that resembled grass with all its curves. Against one wall was a dark blue four-poster bed with velvet curtains. Next to her bed was a make-up counter and a gigantic mirror framed with sparkling star-shaped diamonds. Across from the bed was a wooden carved desk with a brand new looking laptop. Harry beamed at her when she told him that it was perfect and thanked him so much.
"I'm really glad you like it. It's my design since Hermione's was so bookwormy. So, what happened to your family? How did you end up living with Hermione?" Harry questioned, thinking of his own parents. Kelli sat down on the bed and Harry followed suit. There was a moment of silence.
"I don't really want to talk about it. I don't really remember anything from that night," Kelli lied, then changing the subject, "So, are you like Hermione's boyfriend or something?"
Kelli was surprised to see Harry laugh at this. "Nah, we're just best friends. She has a soft spot for my mate, Ron Weasley, who's also our best friend. I'm still open." Harry glanced at Kelli hopefully but she didn't show any sign of noticing it.
"Oh," Kelli said, embarrassed. "Then do you know Matt Fudge and Draco Malfoy by any chance?"
Harry's grin faded and his expression was grim. "Don't ever listen to that spoiled Slytherin if you know what's best for you. He's just a little ferret boy," Harry spat out. "Or Matt Fudge. They're all out there just to get girls and use them."
"I know that from experience," Kelli agreed.
"You mean he actually…tried to rape you?" Harry gasped. Kelli nodded and Harry turned burning red. "He's such a stupid idiot. Don't worry, just try to stay away from him and you'll be okay."
"Umm ok," Kelli said, grinning at having an excuse to be away from Matt. "Wait. If you know Matt, then you two must go to the same school together. What was it called…Hogwarts?"
"Uh, yeah. You'll probably go to a different boarding school though, because you're probably a lot smarter than we are," Harry said. He noticed that the two of them were inching closer and closer on her bed. He abruptly became aware of how beautiful Kelli was, with her long brown hair and bright green eyes. She had high cheekbones and rosy cheeks that turned a bit pink when she blushed. Her outfit looked stunning on her, and her jeans hugged her curves perfectly. Her smile was gorgeous and he suddenly had an urge to plant his lips upon those luscious lips. Harry suddenly realized that he was staring at her and dropped his gaze.
"So…shall we go meet Hermione and find out…erm…what we're having for lunch?" Harry asked lightly, hoping she didn't notice him staring at her.
"Yeah, sure," Kelli said disappointedly. She had been hoping they could be alone long enough for him to kiss her. Then she thought of Andrew and her eyes misted with tears. I am such a horrible girlfriend, wanting other guys to make out with me, Kelli thought miserably as she followed Harry down the stairs, I probably won't ever see him again though. Hermione was waiting with the same twinkle in her eye at the foot of the stairs. She gave Harry a look in which he didn't understand.
"So…did you like your room, Kelli? Harry designed it just for you. He got pretty excited when I said I had a cousin coming over to stay…forever," Hermione said.
"Umm yeah, it was pretty cool. Thanks for letting me stay here. I mean, I never knew I had a cousin. Mom and dad never told me anything about our family," Kelli said sadly.
"Oh. Well let's get ready. Mum's taking us out to lunch then shopping for clothes for Kelli," Hermione replied, going upstairs to change. Harry and Kelli followed her upstairs to change too.
Kelli put on a simple white tank top and white shorts give to her by the Fudges. She applied some strawberry flavored lip-gloss to her lips and green sparkly eye shadow that brought out her emerald eyes. Taking a brush, she brushed her long slightly wavy brown hair into a ponytail and secured it with a green scrunchie. Even though it was such a plain outfit, she looked stunning.
The four of them went out to lunch at a Muggle mall and went shopping for Kelli's new clothes afterwards. They were out for five hours, and went to ten different stores. Mrs. Granger wanted to spend so much on Kelli, but Kelli insisted on buying as little as she could. At the end, Kelli got two white spaghetti-strap tank tops, four pairs of shorts, two mini skirts, and a lot more. Kelli wanted to pay for it all so bad but Mrs. Granger wouldn't hear a word of it.
They came back from shopping at five thirty and Hermione and Kelli went upstairs to try on Kelli's new clothes. They pulled Harry up with them so they could model for him. Meanwhile, Mr. and Mrs. Granger were having a conversation downstairs.
"Hi hunny. I see you and the kids are back. So, how'd it go?" Mr. Granger asked, kissing his wife on the cheek.
"Oh it went pretty well. I would've gotten her more clothes if the mall didn't close so early. It's not like we're poor or anything. What happened while we were away?" Mrs. Granger replied.
He hesitated a moment before answering, as if considering his choice of words. "Well, I got a letter in the mail from Hogwarts…for Kelli."
"You mean…Kelli's a witch? Oh that would be just wonderful! She's practically Hermione's sister and they'll have a lovely time at Hogwarts! This means we won't have to pay for boarding school either!" Hermione's mom danced in glee when she finally realized something. "Wait, if Kelli's a witch, what does that mean?"
"See, there was no magic school in the States so since she was living with us, Dumbledore thought she could just come to Hogwarts," Mr. Granger explained.
"No, I mean is she a witch from a Muggle family or is she half and half?" Mrs. Granger asked.
Hermione's dad sighed. It wasn't easy revealing something kept hidden for a long time. "Actually, my sister-Kelli's mom- was a witch. I was the Muggle. She married Marcus, who was a pureblood wizard. Then they had Kelli. That's all I know. I'm really sorry for not telling you, dear. I just loved you so much. And no, Hermione's not half-half because I was still a muggle," Mr. Granger finished, reading his wife's expression.
They were silent for a moment while it all sank it. Mrs. Granger looked sad and almost angry but overcame it. "Oh. Well I guess that's ok. I guess I can forgive you. But you owe me!" she ended with a childish grin. Deep down she still felt hurt but because she loved her husband so much she forgave him.

"C'mon Harry! Tell me what you think of this!" Kelli giggled as she posed in front of him, wearing a tight mini-skirt and a practically see through shirt. Harry blushed dark red and averted his eyes from her chest to the floor, mumbling something.
"What was that Harry? I didn't hear anything," Kelli giggled some more.
"I said you look great," Harry repeated. In his mind he thought, you look really hot in that outfit.
Kelli curled her lower lip and pouted. "Only great? I don't look beautiful, or hot, or extremely sexy?" She and Hermione doubled up in laughter as Harry blushed even redder.
"Aww, I think wittle Hawwy doesn't wike us too much. Maybe we should give him a wittle encouwagement," Hermione said, coming closer to Harry and shaking her hips as she went. Kelli did the same and soon they were surrounding Harry, making kissing noises and teasing him with their girly features. Kelli placed herself on his lap and snaked her arms around his neck, cooing at him. Then she got up and Harry bolted out the door, leaving Hermione and Kelli laughing and clutching their sides.
***
Harry ran out of the room blushing furiously. He was confused. After Cho had broke up with him he had never actually experienced the same feeling with another girl. Until Kelli. There was something special about her that made him all fuzzy inside. Something that no other girl had. He lay down on his bed to think and eventually fell asleep.

"Well I supposed we'll have to tell Kelli and the rest of the kids. It'll come as a big shock to her but we'll bare with it," Mrs. Granger sighed. "Hermione! Kelli! Harry! Come down here! We have something to discuss with the three of you!"
Kelli and Hermione came bounding down the stairs a minute later, both looking flustered. "Yeah?" they asked in unison.
"Hold on, where's Harry?" Hermione's dad asked. The girls stifled a laugh and said, "He's upstairs. Probably trying to decide whether we were crazy or not."
"Well, in that case, you can just pass the message on to him," Hermione's dad said carefully. "Kelli, we have some news for you."
Kelli looked up at him with a strange expression. "Y-you can't m-mean that my par-" but she was cut off by Mrs. Granger.
"Oh no, it's not that. This might come as a shock to you, so brace yourself. We just found out that you're-you're a witch, dear," she said brightly.
Kelli was bewildered. "A-a witch?"
