By Wednesday Daphne was fed up of all the rumours about her and Theo, she honestly didn't see the problem with them going as friends. She hadn't actually spoken to Theo about the rumours but based upon the kiss she got last week in class she presumed he thought it was a date too. Daphne could not work out how she got herself into this mess.

Making matters much worse was the fact that not only was Tracey trying to get Daphne looking 'sexy' but Astoria was there too bouncing on the bed like Christmas had come early.

"Why have I never seen you like this before Astoria?" Daphne asked her sister.

"Oh, come on. I could hardly behave like this in front of you in the past you had your nose stuck so far up in the air I would be surprised if you saw what was going on around you." Came Astoria's reply

"Ladies calm down. Today is a very special day. Today Daphne will change from a girl to a woman, I'm so proud of you Daphne" Tracy said wiping a fake tear from her eye "Let's get you ready. I have some wonderful dresses you can wear. She continued holding up a variety of dresses against Daphne.

"Do you have to be so dramatic, as I keep saying this is not a date." Daphne sighed but had half resigned herself to accept her fate that this was indeed a date.

"Stop fooling yourself Daphne, of course, this is a date. The sooner you accept it the better you will enjoy today. That one Tracy that's the dress" Astoria said admiring the blue dress Tracy was holding up.

Daphne took the dress to the bathroom to get changed. Stepping out five minutes later wearing a blue sheeth dress that matched the colour of her eyes.

"Right let me sort your hair," Astoria said after admiring Daphne for a few minutes

-Extremely Rebellious-

It was half an hour later that Daphne emerged in the entrance hall, Astoria had styled her hair into ringlets. Taking a seat on a bench she sat to wait for Theo. Looking up she was staring into the bright green eyes of Potter who was sitting on a bench on the opposite side of the entry hall.

They continued to stare at each other for what felt like hours but in reality, it was only about three0 seconds. When Harry spoke "Morning Greengrass, you're looking rather dressed up today… going on a date?"

"Why does everyone keep saying that." Daphne muttered to herself before giving up and replying "Yea, kind of I guess"

"Oh," said Harry looking a little disappointed "You only guess. Let me guess you didn't realise being asked to go to Hogsmeade meant a date?"

"What, how did you know that?" Daphne replied

"I'm in the same boat, I asked a friend to go to Hogsmeade with me they now think it's a date"

"Oh, well a learning curve for us both then." Daphne smiled

At that moment Cho Chang arrived wearing a pair of jeans and a green top with her hair done up in a bun. "Hey Harry, you ready," she said.

Harry stood up and linked arms with Cho before facing Daphne and saying "Enjoy your date" with a smile that could melt any girl on his face.

"You too" Daphne replied quickly wishing she was in Cho's place for a few moments s before realising it would never happen. First, she wasn't supposed to date anyone and two he was a Gryffindor that would be the ultimate rebellion against her whole house.

"Good morning, ready to be swept off your feet?" came Theo's voice causing Daphne to roll her eyes. Theo stood in front of Daphne and offered his hand to assist her up off the bench. Accepting his hand, they both stood hand in hand in the entrance hall.

They both began to walk outside to where the carriages awaited to take them to the village. Once again being the perfect gentleman Theo held his hand out to help Daphne board the carriage first. The Journey into the village was made in companionable silence.

Once they had arrived at the village Theo helped Daphne out the carriage and asked where she would like to go. The only place that Daphne needed to go was Scrivenshaft's for some more parchment and a few quills. So, after a quick visit, Daphne picked up a few packs of parchment and five quills.

"Anywhere else you want to go?" Theo asked Daphne.

"Nope, so what have you got planned?" Daphne fake smiled at Theo

"You are in for a treat today, come on follow me," Theo said dragging Daphne down the high street.

Shortly they arrived outside of a tea shop that Daphne could only describe as awful. She had definitely heard stories about this place from Tracey. Daphne was not surprised Madam Puddifoot's Tea Shop was Theo's choice of location.

Everything about the shop was pink, Daphne didn't mind pink, but this was just far too much. The window seals were a luminous pink, the net curtains were pale pink and looking through the windows teapots and cups were all in various shades of pink.

Suddenly feeling nervous about entering such an establishment with Theo she found herself rooted to the spot. This was not the kind of thing she was into, besides if she was seen in there with Theo the rumour mill at Hogwarts would have this information everywhere within minutes.

"Are you not coming in Daphne?" Theo asked gently whilst opening the door causing a little chime to go off.

It was then that Daphne saw Harry Potter also inside, deciding that if he had the courage to enter the place, then she would also. Taking a gulp and straightening her back she marched towards Theo. "Yes, I would love a cup of tea," Daphne said as she walked past still rather unsure if she actually did want something.

Taking a seat in one of the booths in the far corner, Theo took a seat opposite. After a few seconds, a multi-tiered platter of biscuits and cakes floated to the table followed by a pot of tea and two cups and saucers.

Daphne poured herself some tea and took one of the cream cakes. "Well, the tea and cakes are nice. Not so sure on the décor" Daphne said taking a sip of tea.

"I'm glad you like it. Although I must agree with you on the décor. It is rather pink" Theo said also taking a bite of a digestive after dunking it in his tea "Do you like me, Daphne?"

"Yeah sure, why would I not? What makes you think I do not like you? Replied Daphne confused, making Theo smile.

"Well, after I asked you to Hogsmeade I heard some rumours from around Slytherin house."

"I think you're a great thing, I would not want to do anything to jeopardise that," Daphne said with a reassuring smile. Theo looked disappointed for split second before putting on a fake smile. Daphne, however, spotted both the disappointed look and the fake smile and was very confused. Maybe Theo really did think this was a date, the problem was Daphne had no idea what to do.

Spending the next four0 minutes in a companionable conversation about school, the weather and other such nonsense. It all came to a rather abrupt end when load sobs were heard from the table near the window, the one that Potter and Chang were sat at.

Suddenly Change shot up out the door slamming the door shut behind her leaving everyone in the shop stunned into silence except for the ring of the doorbell. From what Daphne could see Potter did not look very upset at the display just rather embarrassed before he slowly walked out the door muttering sorry every few seconds.

"Well, that was exciting," Theo said "Shall we get out of here, I said I would meet up with Blaise at the three broomsticks this afternoon. Coming?"

"You go ahead, I will meet up with you later" Replied Daphne dropping a few coins on the table.

"Ok, see you in a bit then," Theo said also dropping a few coins on the table before they both walked out, Theo turning left heading for the three broomsticks whilst Daphne turned right unsure where she was going.

Walking down the road Daphne saw a rather dingy looking pub called 'The Hog's Head' deciding she had not done anything rebellious in a while she decided that she would enter here and get a butterbeer. She had never had one before due to the % alcohol content but had always wanted to taste it.

Being a pub on the outskirts of the village and down one of the side alleyways, it was unlikely that any students would have entered. So bracing herself she pulled open the door and walked in. AS expected, the inside was rather filthy and dark but was laid out like a typical pub with a bar directly in front with tables and chairs dotted around the room with more private booths at the windows.

What did surprise Daphne, however, was the fact a fairly large group of students had congregated in the far corner? Deciding she wanted to find out what was going on Daphne when to the bar and ordered her butter bear rather disgusted at the state of the bottle. Then went to take a seat in the dark corner so she could overhear what the students were talking about.

"The best person to teach us defence is Harry" Came Hermione's voice causing a few heads to start nodding

"Why should we trust Potter?" followed the voice of McLagan

"Look if you don't want to join then leave now. Otherwise, anyone who wants to join sign here." Hermione argued back

"Guys listen Professor Umbridge hasn't taught us anything this year. So even if you think I am lying which I am not. I will do my best to teach you everything I know to help us get the grades to pass this subject, I admit most of what I have done before is mostly pure luck and chance but even if I can show you one new thing won't it be worth it? Harry spoke up.

Daphne almost wanted to stand up and start clapping and cheering at potter little speech but thought better of it. She was already halfway through the bottle and was starting to feel a little dizzy.

It was a few minutes later that most of the students had left leaving just Potter, Hermione and Weasley. Daphne decided that she wanted to be part of the little group Potter had started but had no idea how to approach it. Hermione and Weasley then walked past leaving Harry walking a little distance behind, so taking a final swig of the butterbeer for courage Daphne suddenly reached out and grabbed potter arm pulling him full force on top of her.

"WHAT THE…!" Potter exclaimed "Daphne, Are you ok?"

Daphne let out a little giggle looking directly into Potters' eyes "Been in this position before ay Potter"

"Er, yea I guess" Harry fake chuckled "seriously are you all right? Are you drunk?"

"Shhh!" Daphne said rather loudly "Don't tell anybody I had a butterbeer."

"Ok, are you sure that's all you have had?"

"Yea it is" Daphne continued still giggling "I want to join your little group; I will keep quiet I promise. You could hide me under your robes or something"

Potter wasn't sure what to say to this. "Are you sure that's such a good idea?"

"Sure, I could be your little secret" Daphne replied with a wink.

"Erm, ok then I will let you know about when we meet… Let me help; you back to the castle. I think you've spent enough time here" Potter said wanting to change the subject and offering his had to Daphne.

"Wow, you have muscly arms Potter," Daphne said grabbing harry arm and pulling herself up wobbling a bit.

Suddenly a rather loud voice penetrated Daphne's ears "What the hell are you doing holding a Slytherin for Harry!"

"I think she's drunk or her drink was spiked or something" Replied Harry "I was just going to walk her back to the castle"

"Fine, but watch what we say we can't trust her" Daphne worked out was Weasley's voice

"Harry, Ron… Why are you with Daphne Greengrass" Granger asked, Ron just tried to signal being drunk

"Really, but she's like a pureblood princess? What's she doing out here in the first place?"

"No idea let's just get her back to the castle" Harry replied trying to hold Daphne steady.

"You have lovely eyes, Potter." Daphne slurred. The three Gryffindor's just rolled their eyes. This could be a long walk.

-Extremely Rebellious-

A/N: Well that was an interesting chapter to write. Being a typical male I did have to google the style of dress and hair for Daphne's "Date"… No idea what my other half will think if she sees my internet history!

I also had an operation on Tuesday so most of this was written whilst bored in bed rather high on drugs.

I know I bought the whole Potter and Chang date forward but this is fan fiction and it kind of fit.
