A/n: I know I said that I would have this up soon, but I have had to deal with so many dramas both in and out of school it isn't funny. Please don't kill me. Sorry that this chapter is so short. Thanks to all who reviewed.

Chapter 8: 29th Sep 2002 pt 2

Last time on Harry's diary:

Katherine must have seen me staring at her because she smiled and walked over to me.

"Can we talk for a second?" she asked me. I nodded.

"Look I know that we hardly know each other but I have to ask this because if I don't I am going to regret this for the rest of my life so Harry… um…" she trailed off. "Well willyougooutwithme?" I just blinked at her. I had no idea what she had said.

"Sorry? Can you repeat that?" I asked. Katherine took in a deep breath.

"Will you go out with me? You don't have to say yes, because we hardly know each other and-"I cut her off by putting my hand over her mouth.

"Can I think about it for a while? Its not because I don't like you, its just, well we don't really know each other and I am… trying to get over some one else." I told her. She nodded and left. Ron walked over and sat down next to me.

"Um do you know why Katherine is looking really upset? She looks like she is about to burst into tears." Ron said. I looked at the floor, feeling rather guilty.

"Yeah, I think I know why she is upset. I kind of…. Rejected her when she asked me out." I told him. Ron stared at me.

"You, rejected her? ARE YOU CRAZY?" he yelled at me, as he stood up. "WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU DO A THING LIKE THAT?"

"Ron sit down please, and don't yell I don't want every one to know what you have to say. I didn't say no…exactly. I told her I wanted to think about it. Its not that I don't like her, because I do, but…. It's so complicated." I said before sighing. Ron gave me yet another look.

"How is it complicated? You like her, she likes you. She is hot, and you are single. There is nothing complicated about that. If you really liked her, you would go and find her right now and ask her out," Ron paused for a moment. "Now if you will excuse me I'm going to find something to eat." He stood up and left. I sat in silence for a few minutes, before getting up in search of Katherine.

I found Katherine in her room sitting on her bed; I paused in the door way, unsure of what to do. I knocked on the door, but remained in the door way. Katherine turned and looked up at me. Her nose and eyes were red and her face was stained with tears.

"What do you want?" she snapped, glaring at me. I fidgeted nervously with the hem of my shirt.

"I wanted to apologize," I told her, my eyes never leaving hers. "Can I come in?" Katherine turned away and looked at the floor.

"I suppose." She said. I sat down on the bed next to her.

"Look about before. I never ment to hurt to and well Ron practically abused me for saying no…" I trailed off unsure of how to word what I wanted to say. "I really like you… and well… I really want to go out with you." Katherine stared at me for a moment.

"Um.. Ok. Do you want to go out on Friday? I know this great place. " She said unsure. I smiled at her.

"Sure that would be great." I said. I left the room grinning. I couldn't wait for Friday!

Friday couldn't come soon enough, but when it came it was worth waiting for. Katherine drove me to this really nice Chinese restaurant. After we ordered Katherine and I just talked about how life was. It was really nice I didn't have to worry about anything and I felt at ease it was like I was just a normal person, not having to worry about Voldemort or the war. After dinner Katherine took me to a great ice cream shop where we ordered chocolate and strawberry ice cream and wandered down the street.

"Are you scared about having to face you-know-who knowing that one of you will have to die?" Katherine suddenly asked me. I paused for a moment thinking of how to answer.

"I guess, I mean I have faced him before, but I try not to think about that," I told her truthfully. "What ever happens happens and at the moment I'm more worried about spilling ice cream on my self and you laughing at me." Katherine smiled. We walked back to her car and drove home, when we reached the porch I pulled Katherine aside.

"Thanks for tonight, it was really great." I told her. Katherine smiled at me.

"I'm glad that you had fun." She whispered, and then she kissed me on the lips. I kissed her back, and we stood there for ages making out on her front porch. I think I lover her diary I really do…

Hermione shut the diary with a snap. She couldn't read anymore, not when she was tired and confused. Hermione looked at her clock, and saw that it was after midnight. With a sigh she placed Harry's diary on her bedside table and turned her light off. But no matter how hard she tried she couldn't get to sleep, so she just lay there staring up at her ceiling thinking about how much she missed Harry.

A/n: yea I know that was a short chapter, but I have really bad writers block at the moment. Please review!
