~"Harry likes you doesn't he?"~

A man and a teenager were standing a few meters away waving at them, once they got closer katie realized that it was the hufflepuff seeker, Cedric Diggory  alias "the most popular guy at hogswarts" or "the most wanted by girls", she, herself, didn't understand all the drama, he was fine and all but that's it. She didn't know him though.

"Arthur! It was about time" the man said with a hand shake "all of them yours?" 

"Just the redheads, this are Ron's friends, Katie Jones, her brother Jake Jones, Hermione Granger and Harry Potter" Arthur cleared pointing at the group. Amos, like almost every wizard Harry knew, quickly traveled his gaze to Harry's forehead with a gasp. He thought it was very annoying everyone having the same reaction but he could handle it. Covering the famous bolt scar with a piece of hair.

"You are the Harry Potter?" He asked in disbelief "You are the one that my cedric played against last year and won!" 

"Dad, I already told you, Harry fell off his broom" Cedric finally spoke. Katie did know he was very kind, considering that he wanted a re-match when he found out why did Harry fall off his broomstick.

"But you didn't yourself did you?" 

Awkward

"Anyways, we have a long walk ahead, let's go" and we started heading to the quidditch World Cup again.

"Katie right?"Cedric questioned.

"Yeah, I suppose you are Cedric" Katie said with a smile.

"You right, I saw you last year in the match, not playing though" 

"Oh, that's because I'm not in the team, I really like the sport however" She drank some water from her bottle.

"Weren't you flying in a broom?"

"Long story, I was just helping Harry with the nerves, Beating his ass grabbing the snitch first. He blames the rain" They laughed.

"Well, you fly really good, you should enter to the team you know?" Cedric told her, she really liked playing, she would try.

"You know what? I'll go to the tryouts this year, what's life without risks?"

"Katie can you help me over here?" She heard someone yell behind her, she turned around and Harry was in the ground with his backpack which was open dropping all the things to the floor.

"You fell? Are you ok?" She asked worried going with him.

"No, my backpack did" he said.

"Do you need anymore help?" Cedric asked kindly.

"No thanks, I can do it myself" 

"But you asked her to help you so I thought-"

"I'm good, we can keep walking"

"Okay... anyways, I heard that we are near the portkey!" Katie said, standing up again and walking.

"So tell me something" Cedric asked with a smirk while katie watched her brother barely handling Fred's insults.

"What?" 

"Harry likes you doesn't he?" He questioned.

"What?" She repeated, this time, with a disbelief tone.

"Oh come on, he wanted your attention so you stopped talking with me, he's jealous" he was right, Harry was a little too jealous and overprotective around her, but it just seemed a bit weird. I mean, he is Harry Potter , why would him like her?

He does

               I don't know

He does 

             But if he does why can't he just tell me

You said it yourself, he is Harry Potter, he's way too shy to tell you 

Maybe, but I'm not-

"Earth calling Katie" 

"Oh, right, sorry, what were you saying?"

"Harry likes you"

"Let's change the subject" after some awkward moments, Cedric spoke again:

"Fine, I'll call you kat" he said

"Kat?"

"Yes, a nickname"

"No."

"Kit kat then, it's a chocolate you need to like it"

"No."

"So can I call you Nicolas?"

"What does that even have to do with Katie? And no"

"So no nickname?"

"Actually, katie is a nickname, my full name is Katherine" she said.

"Huh, well, I guess I'll live with it" 

"We are here"

There it was, An old dirty boot that apparently would take us to the World Cup
