(A/N)/Disclaimer- Hey everyone, sorry for the long awaited update. It's all explained why on my profile page if you haven't already read it. Thanks for reading. Oh, and I do not, in anyway, own Harry Potter. I only own Kathryn in this story, and a few other character that are bound to be thrown in. Enjoy.

CHAPTER FOUR- Classes, Head Students, and Quidditch Captain
Kathryn awoke right when the sun started to come up. She sat there with the blanket around her, just taking in the sight of the way the sunlight reflected on the lake's edge, and the color the castle was at dawn's first light. She sighed with delight and leaned her head against the wall watching her first sunrise since she had been in the castle.
Kathryn had always woken up early. When the sun had fully risen she got up from the window and got dressed into her new school robes. By the time that she was done getting dressed, the other girls in the dormitory were awaking. Hermione introduced her to Lavender Brown and Pavarti Patil, the two other girls there. Kathryn waited for Hermione to get dressed and then headed down to breakfast with her.
"You know," said Hermione as they walked down the staircase, "There are many secret passages in this castle. I don't know them all but Harry does, maybe he'll show you one night."
"That would be great, maybe I'll ask him," she said, thinking that that might be the perfect time to kill him.
They walked into the Great Hall. There was hardly anyone there. Just a few people scattered around all of the tables. Kathryn walk over to the Gryfindor table with Hermione and sat down. Immediately breakfast foods appeared on the table around where they were sitting. Kathryn poured herself some coffee, and got some toast and fried tomatoes. Hermione poured herself some coffee too, but had oatmeal and bacon.
Soon others started to come in to get breakfast and Kathryn waved to Ron and Harry when then finally came so they could know where they were.
"So, how was your first night in the castle?" asked Ron.
"It was great," Kathryn said, "I fell asleep in a window watching the stars, and then I woke up early and watched the sunrise."
"That's what I did on my first night here," said Harry.
Kathryn smiled.
"What classes are you taking?" she asked them.
Harry and Ron both opened their mouths to answer, but it was Hermione that spoke first.
"I'm taking the usual classes along with Arithmancy, Ancient Ruins, and Care of Magical Creatures," she said.
"You can take that many classes?" Kathryn asked, confused. They never let us take that many at my old school.
"That's nothing, really. You should have seen how many classes she was taking in our third year," Ron laughed.
Hermione threw him a dirty look.
"You're just jealous because I could handle more classes than you AND make better grades." Hemione shouted.
"Yeah right! For one you couldn't handle it, you were a nervous wreck. And two, I would never be jealous of you, Hermione." he said hotly.
"WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSE TO MEAN!?"
"WILL YOU TWO STOP IT ALREADY!"
It was Harry that had spoken. Kathryn silently thought to herself that if he hadn't told them, she would have at any second. They looked at him.
"Why is it that you're always at each others throats?" He asked.
They both looked down at their food, not answering, and started eating again, not saying a word. Kathryn looked at both of them and then at Harry.
"So, what classes are you taking Harry?" she asked thoughtfully.
Ron and Hermione looked up at both of them.
"Usual, that and Divination and Care of Magical Creatures." he said.
"Me too."
He was about to say something but was cutoff by a screech from above. The owls had arrived with mail and class schedules. There was no mail for Kathryn but a large school owl landed next to her and handed her her schedule. It read:

Kathryn looked up. Harry was looking at something. It was badge.
"What's that Harry?" she asked.
"This isn't possible" he said ignoring her, and held up the badge "I'm Head Boy, how can that be?"
He looked around at Ron and Hermione.
"I guess Dumbledore made an exception for you." Hermione said, shrugging.
"What are you talking about?" Kathryn asked.
"You're not suppose to be Head Boy or Girl when you weren't a Prefect first, and I wasn't," he said, still amazed.
"Yeah, well Harry, you are Dumbledore's favorite. I guess he made an exception since he deprived it from you in our fifth year. Didn't he do the same thing for your dad?"
Harry nodded, and Hermione went back to opening an envelope.
"Oh my God!" she exclaimed "I'm Head Girl!" she smiled broadly.
"Congratulations you two," said Ron, seeming a little upset, "Hey Harry, what do you have there?"
Kathryn looked over at Harry. He had finished pinning on his Head Boy badge and was now putting another one on.
"Quidditch Captain Badge." he replied.
"Oh, that's right, Katie left didn't she?" said Hermione. She turned to Kathryn "Katie Bell was the Quidditch Captain before Harry."
She nodded then looked back at Harry.
"You play Quidditch?" Kathryn asked "I use to be Chaser at my old school. What position do you play Harry?"
"Seeker. We just lost two of our Chasers, you should tryout. I'm booking tryouts in a week."
"Okay, who are the other players?" she asked eagerly. Quidditch was her favorite sport and game.
"Me, of course, Ron is our Keeper, and his younger sister Ginny is the last Chaser. We need two Chasers and two Beaters this year. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to talk to Dumbledore about booking the Quidditch Pitch. Ron can you tell Ginny when the tryouts are? I want the whole team to be there, or at least what's left of it." he said smiling and walked off to the teacher's table to talk to the Headmaster.
