"I do feel so sorry," I heard Draco Malfoy say during one of the last potions classes before break, "for all those people who have to stay at Hogwarts for Christmas because they're not wanted at home."401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxW3KaA3WCg

"Shut up daddy's boy!" I growled under my breath. I hated when he made fun of Harry. He looked at me and opened his mouth to say something but then surprisingly, chose to stay silent. 401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWMuezK7kl

When we left the dungeons at the end of Potions, we found our way blocked by a large fir tree. Two enormous feet stuck out at the bottom and a loud puffing sound told us that Hagrid was behind it.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvRKjTLlNQ

"Hey, Hagrid, want any help?" I asked, sticking my head through the branches.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJSMxbQr1A

"Would you mind moving out of the way?" Came Malfoy's cold drawl from behind us. "Are you trying to earn some extra money, princess? Hoping to be gamekeeper yourself when you leave Hogwarts, I suppose? That hut of his must seem like a palace compared to what you're used to." I dived at Malfoy just as Snape came up the stairs.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeiZ51uZaL

"She was provoked, Professor Snape," said Hagrid, sticking his huge hairy face out from behind the tree. "Malfoy was insulting' her,"401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IuLadVAAR
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1qYBcdIr1
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQdWMyVSed
"Is this true, Malfoy," Snape hissed under his breath as his eyes narrowed.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqurdMzqg0E

401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecXPftWfOO
Malfoy's mumbled something inaudible but Snape got the message. "Detention, Malfoy. Tonight at 8'oclock see me in my office...Katrina, just because you are provoked does not give you the right to start fighting and break school rules - got it?" He said sternly. I nodded my head feeling properly shamed as he strode off down the hall.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbvRqfGhM5
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHuVcgtRS2
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaclJ2WmlTQ
"Phewww...I can't believe he didn't give you detention as well!" Exclaimed Ron. 401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtJ0UuWp0b

"Shut up, Harry! And don't call me that! I don't want that to become my new nickname!" I groaned as I rubbed my temples in frustration.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwp3pivgsM

"Come on, cheer up, Kat! It's nearly Christmas," said Hagrid. "Tell yeh what, come with me an' see the Great Hall, looks a treat."401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmWlnw2Bgv

401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWG24pSQIcB
The Great Hall did indeed look spectacular. Decorations had been put up everywhere and 11 large fir trees were stationed around the room (the 12 was being dragged into the hall by Hagrid). 401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbam8BvCm4z
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8j1gXfbopd

"Professor Flitwick, would you like some help with that?" I offered as I watched Flitwick levitating ornaments onto the trees.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjNWhIvCqn
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVG0j7rzHa
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcG9zrkeLXA

Harry coughed into his hands something that sounded strangely like, "teachers pet," and I gave him a stern look that could rival Minnie's. he hugged me and whispered, "I'm just teasing you, Kat. It's how you know I love ya," he said smirking as I rolled my eyes at him using my own words against me. 401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dzQMwcL0O

I went back to my room and changed into new clothes after helping Flitwick out, then made my way to the Gryffindor common room to get the boys. 401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYf2zAwYdI

We walked down to the feast arm in arm and sat down at the deserted table. Me, Harry, and the Weasley's had been the only ones to stay. The other three tables looked just as empty; only containing one or two people each. 401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEohFjH2jnx
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ni6IOQA08
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bvQpt4Tkx
"I'll be right back," I murmured to Harry as I got up from the table and made my way over to the 3 Hufflepuff students who had remained for the holidays. 401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHid61TumY
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP01w85yH6Q

401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41HgFqJyyE
"Yeah! We'd love to! Thanks for asking - to be honest (really wanted to just put tbh😂) we were feeling kind of lonely with everyone gone," one of the girls piped up as they got up and made their way over to our table.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsBzx3K546

401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47Ai5MsanH
I then made my way over to the two Ravenclaws who said they would be delighted to join us. Then I steeled myself and walked over to the single kid at the Slytherin table. 401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKA9j6WcN1s
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOXe40LUMP
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkUNsW3yaq
"H-hi! Are you really the only Slytherin who stayed?" I said nervously, not sure how he'd react to me talking to him. Slytherin's were not known for their kindness.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkSWt1j9s5
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkQmjOa5el

401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPfxd9yG4M
"But what if they don't want me there, the other houses don't exactly get along with Slytherins..." he hung his head.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFs4De1ekwl

401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK12HVLFA33
"It's Christmas, no one should be on their own, I'm sure they won't mind if you joined us," I said giving him my biggest smile. He slowly got up and made his way over. I grinned as I saw the others greet him and scootch over to make room for him.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv54f2AvgYn

"Well...you see...I was just wondering if you and the other Professors would like to join us at our table? I know it sounds strange but it IS Christmas and there's hardly anyone here..." I broke off feeling my stupid shyness overpower me as I looked down at my hands that were fumbling with my robes.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwhOUrRcrn
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXWV4nVMSn
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwIs92lAMw
"What a wonderful idea, Katrina, dear - and might I add, a great way to start rebuilding school unity." I looked up into Dumbledore's blue eyes and saw them twinkling with a conspiratorial gleam. 401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Nm4xfGE4K

The feast that night was amazing and my stomach was well and truly stuffed full by the end. I said good night to the other students and teachers as Harry, Ron, and I made our way back to my room.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMuXVFOIWn
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpfVIZukFA
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsUcL131yr
"Uh-oh," I heard Ron say as he looked back at us. Harry and I had lagged behind due to the weight of our full stomachs. 401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDvP3RaA0q
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmNNDIvF9d
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfaKqu6kR3

For an answer, Ron just glanced up at the ceiling above our heads. Mistletoe.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanD4UkF8ZH
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhpr60wYq8
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEyGn9sQek
My face turned red as I turned to face Harry. Before I could lose the nerve, I leaned forward and kissed his cheek. Next thing I knew, he'd kissed mine back. My face was on fire as we continued down the hall. I slyly looked over at him to see his face was red too.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9ShJTSBOS

I felt my face turn red as Ron pointed up to the mistletoe. I was both excited and nervous. Was I supposed to kiss her? Or would she see that as weird and have expected me to ignore it? Before I could think of what to do, she had leaned over and I felt her lips brush against my cheek. I blushed and quickly returned the action.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpTHmXH0qA
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjF0DjZhP1
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Q9as0tqx4
The rest of the walk back to her room was a haze as I dreamily reflected on what had just happened. When I glanced over at Ron it was to see him smirking at me with a knowing look in his eyes.401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2WBME2TTV
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJs5g3FAOW8
401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWfPQC6Q79
We said goodnight to Kat and the two of us walked back to our dormitory. The minute her door closed I felt my lips turn up and my walk lighten. I know I probably looked goofy but I was on cloud nine. 401Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OFsrBqu2Q

I went to sleep that night with a warm belly and dreams of Kat's soft lips on my cheek. (I'd go further with it but they are only 11 so...)
