(IMPORTANT! AN: after I thought about it I realized both of her parents were Indian so in this chapter you get to see what she really looks like!)

Harry woke up Saturday morning and remembered he had a date with Night Star. Smiling to himself he climbed out of bed and looked for something to wear. 'We're only going as friends he said to himself' 'Ah but you want to be more than her friend.' Ignoring his thoughts Harry went down to breakfast. The rest of his friends came down right after Harry had sat down.
It seemed as though Night Star had taken extra thought to her outfit.
She was wearing black jeans that were tight, a vintage-looking shirt that was dark red. At her waistline a light red embroider belt showed off her slim waistline. Her normally straight black hair was wavy. Her dark brown eyes were glowing with excitement. Around her neck was a diamond necklace with the words NIGHT PRINCESS
"Hey" she said with a smile
" Hey you look-wow great," he said. Hermione rolled her eyes.
"Come on let's go so we'll be early" she said. They walked down with muffins in their hands. When they got to the village they split up leaving Harry and Night Star to walk alone down the streets. It seemed to Night Star that everyone who passed was holding hands with someone. She looked at Harry who looked at her and smiled.
"So where do you want to go first." He asked her.
"I don't know anywhere to go. Anywhere's fine." She replied
" How about Honeydukes. They have all kinds of candy," he asked
Her face lit up " great I am addicted to white chocolate! Do you think they have any?" she asked him.
" I don't know. Most likely." When they got there Harry held the door open for her. She smiled at him.
" I didn't know you had such good manners," she teased.
The got in and split up to look around. Harry first saw a jar of white chocolate chips. He made sure Night Star wasn't looking and he bought them for her. He put them in the bag and was about to go find Night Star when…
" What's in the bag?" she said sneaking up behind him.
" Umm. I got you something" he replied. She looked in the bag
"White chocolate!" she exclaimed
" Yeah I got them for you" he said blushing.
" Well look what I got for you," she said pulling a bag of her own from behind her back. Inside were small edible broomsticks and snitches. He thanked her and they left the store.
" Where to next? Are you thirsty?" he asked. When she nodded he led her to the Three Broomsticks. They sat down, got a booth, and waited.
" So Night Star, Tell me about your life. Where did you live?" he asked her
"Well my dad was like the minister of magic here but there were more than one. So we moved a lot. I didn't really like it because whenever I went to a new school people would ask me how rich I was and would only be my friend because of that." She said. Her cheeks turned pink.
" I know how you feel. What about your dad? Did you two have fun together?" he asked
Night Star laughed a bitter laugh.
" Ha! He didn't really care about me. He was always gone on trips. He said he tried to spend more time with us by bring me and my mom along. But he was never there with us so he always tried to make it up"
"How?"
" Buying my mom and I all kinds of extravagant gifts. I got this necklace from him. He couldn't find Night Star. But he never gave me what I wanted- a locket. When he died I kept all the stuff to remind he of him. Even though kind of vain huh? But enough about my life tell me about yours. I heard some pretty tall tales from people," she said with a grin.
He told her about all of her adventures except the ministry of magic incident. He still didn't want to talk about it yet.
Finally the waitress came and they ordered butterbeers. A few minutes later they were backing the street walking around and talking. Night Star was telling Harry about some of the real friends she had when she was really little. Soon they had walked to the end of the village without noticing. There was one little shop on the end.
They walked in it turned out to be a pet shop. They looked around before Night Star found a green collar for her cat.
(AN: I know I kind of left the cat out but you'll see it later)
" I think I'll get this for the cat. I still don't have a name for her" she paid for the collar and left. She and Harry walked back into the castle both very happy with their date, even though it was just as friends.
On Ron and Hermione's date things were going quite differently. They were already halfway through the date and Hermione was saying things she could do to Night Star.
"I've got it!" she said snapping Ron out of his thoughts "we could give her sort of a test. A test to see if she is mature enough I have this great plan." She gave him the first part of the plan.
" Hermione do you really think this is the right thing to do?"
"Of course. If someone is going to go out with Harry they need to be mature enough to deal with his life" Ron couldn't disagree with that.
That night Harry and Ron were talking. All of the other boys were asleep.
"So did you and Night Star have a good date?" he asked
" We went just as friends," he said
" Yeah uh-huh sure" Ron couldn't help but feel a little guilty about what he was doing "well did you two have fun any way?" "Yeah I guess lets go to sleep.
Meanwhile in the girls dorm they were all awake talking, except to Hermione who was already asleep. So they thought!
" So how was your date with Harry" lavender asked Night Star who blushed.
" It wasn't a date we're just friends" she replied
" Well we can change that," said Parvati and lavender laughing. Night Star just rolled her eyes.
" We had fun I really like him. I told you how everyone was where I used to go. I told him and he didn't practically worship me. He was very sweet. Now lets go to sleep."
The next morning everyone was excited about defense against the dark arts. Professor trolessent (night star's mum) was the first woman teacher for this subject. That all walked into her class and sat down. She was sitting behind her desk looking at each one of them in turn as if grading them.
"Good morning. This year we know for sure that voldemort is back" she waited a second for everyone to get over his or her shocks. "This year we will be training you against what we think he will be using against us all. If you will pay attention up here-." She dimmed the lights and showed them wizard photographs that were rather large for about an hour.
It was a photo of a burning house with the dark mark above it. Many people gasped.
" This is what many people came home to in the first war. In the second even more terrible things are said to come. We –I want you all you be ready to defend yourselves and each other" this lesson continues for another thirty minutes. At the end of class everyone was stunned at how straightforward she was with them. Harry was about to walk back but then:
" Harry could I talk to you just a second"
