Over the next few weeks Harry and Claire kept on seeing echother in random places places such as, the dungeons, outside the Great Hall, and one time wandering a secret passage way and that time Professor Dumbledore was also wandering that passage and caught them talking together.
He looked at them with a twinkle in his eye and said "Ah, young love." Resulting in Harry and Claire stepping away from echother and turning a dark shad of red. Harry had quickly developed some feelings for Claire.
With the Hogsmade visit this weekend Harry was contemplating whether or not he should ask Claire if she wanted to go with him. He felt he should do so because it was the first visit of the year you could see people asking others to go with them.
You could see James asking Lily "In your dreams Potter", a lot girls asking Sirius, and many girls walking around giggling about what they are wearing and who they're going with.
Jogging down the stairs to the Great Hall for lunch after Charms Harry found himself asking Claire something akwardly. "So, I was wondering whether or not you wanted to go to Hogsmade this weekend with me? You know if you wanted." Harry added quickly at the end.
Smiling and blushing Claire replied "Sure"
Relieved Harry bid Claire goodbye and headed into the Great Hall with a true smile on his face. When he sat Lily immediatley looked over at him and asked "Did you ask her?"
"Yeah, she said yes." Harry replied happily.
"Who said what?" James asked as he sat down at the table.
"Harry asked Claire to go to Hogsmade." Lily replied with a smirk. "Reallyyyyy?" James asked with a knowing smile.
Blushing Harry scooped some mashed potatoes onto his plate and mumbled a yes. Ron and Hermione walked into the Great Hall looking wind-swept doing who knows what and sat down.
"So what do you wanna do in Hogsmade Harry?" Ron asked Harry as they sat down. Looking akward Harry replied "Um Ron, I'm gonna go with Claire to Hogsmade." Suddenly Hermione stuck out a hand towards Ron and said "Pay up."
Ron put some sickles into the out-stretched hand grudgenly. With a shocked glared Lily explained to Harry what was going on. "They were betting to see whether or not you would ask Claire by the end of the week."
So needless to say Harry ignored Ron and Hermione for the rest of lunch.
The rest of the week past in a blur and soon enough Harry was walking to the front doors smiling slightly at Claire. She looked amazing. Her hair was framed around her face. She wore a pair of jeans and a dark blue that showed of her curves. On top of that was a simple jacket.
"Hey" Claire said a little breathlessly. "Hi." Harry replied. They walked to the door where Filch was watching everyone go out the door.
They passed him quickly and started walking down the road to Hogsmade.
While they were talking there was no touch of akwardness between them. They talked about Quidditch, school, Hogsmade, and everyhting else that they could think of. Out of the corner of his eye Harry could see a flash of black hair.
Fighting back a smirk Harry leaned towards Claire and said quietly "Sorry about this but it seems my friends are following us." Looking a little flustered Claire glanced to the side of the road and must have seen something because it looked like she was fighting back a laugh.
"Want to put on a show?" Harry asked misceviously.
"Absolutley."
So that led them to the Three Broomsticks about 5 minutes later planning what they should do. Breaking out of a deep thought Claire said "What if we don't get revenge now? We bid our time and strike when they least expect it."
