Chapter Thirteen- Filler
"Kat, Kat! Wake up, c'mon, we've gotta get Harry!" Ron shook Kat awake.
"What the bloody hell are you talking about? It's just a nightmare Ron-"
"No Kat, Fred, George, and I are going to go get Harry! C'mon!" At that, Kat jumped up and quickly changed once Ron left the room. She pulled on tight black pants and a hoodie; muggle clothes were so comfortable.
Fred and George were in the front-seat while Ron and Kat were in the back. Ron helped Harry get into the car and the fat muggle- Harry's uncle apparently- fell out of the window and into bushes. They drove off quickly into the sky to home.
"Where have you been?" Molly's voice shrieked and Kat found herself upstairs already while her cousins were yelled at. She had been able to sneak away somehow and congratulated herself until Ginny woke up. Ginny sprung up from her bed at the unbelievable news that Harry Potter was in the house, running down the many stairs with Kat.
"Harry Potter! What are you doing here?" Kat ran over to Harry and hugged him.
"Wha- but you just-" Harry stopped talking when Kat trapped him into a hug.
"Shut up, I don't want to get yelled at!" Kat whispered in his ear and heard one of her cousins say something about how she was definitely a Slytherin.
"Good to see you Kat! Hello Ginny!" Harry waved at Ginny and just got a squeak in return as Ginny ran upstairs to get dressed.
Ron and Harry continued to talk as Molly not-so-discreetly added extra food to Harry's plate. Arthur eventually walked in after everyone was at the table and earned a good morning from everybody. Arthur only stuttered when he realized that there were two heads of brown hair instead of the usual just one.
"Oh my, hello Harry! Didn't expect to see you this morning, how ever did you get here?" Different voices spoke up and overlapped each other but came to a sudden halt when Molly turned around. Needless to say Fred, George, and Ron had extra chores to do that morning. Kat helped of course because she felt bad for leaving them to take the blame.
"So Harry, are you excited to go back to school soon?" Kat sat next to him and watched as heads of red hair popped up from the tall grass every now and then. Her cousins were catching gnomes and they were extra fast today.
"I have to admit that I miss it but so soon? We only got out a month or so ago."
"Yes, we go back in two weeks! I'm very excited, Ginny will be at school this year and we'll get to see her more often!" Kat glanced at Harry to gage his reaction.
"Oh yeah, she'll probably be sorted into Gryffindor as well, right?" Kat screamed a little inside.
"Yeah, Ginny will most likely get sorted into Gryffindor because the Sorting Hat actually takes into consideration who you're related to and what house they are normally in."
"So your family actually had mostly Slytherins?" Harry looked at her curiously. "I'd think Ron's family wouldn't want to be associated with Slytherins- no offense of course."
"None taken, I'm actually the first Slytherin ever in the Prewett family. It is a bit peculiar, but I guess I just have more Slytherin attributes than Gryffindor- that might actually be a good thing, Gryffindors don't normally think things through." Kat and Harry laughed, both thinking of Hermione. They ran over to help Ron whenever they heard a random scream and loud cursing about gnomes and why they have teeth.

Kat walked back inside later that morning, leaving the boys outside to do... whatever honestly, Kat didn't really care. She just wanted to talk to Ginny about school.
"Ginny? Ginny, are you in our room?" Kat walked into the room and found Ginny unpacking and repacking. "Ginny? What are you doing?"
"Making sure I have everything, why?" Ginny continued to take things out of her trunk then put them back in.
"Because you look absolutely mad! Here, quit that, quit it." Kat dragged Ginny onto her bed. "What are you actually worried about? The Sorting Hat doesn't hurt, George and Fred just wanted to scare us. Harry can even tell you-"
"No! No, I'm good, not Harry. I'm just..." Ginny looked down and away from Kat. "What if I get sorted into Slytherin like you? I don't mean to-"
"No offense taken, I'm not ashamed to be a Slytherin anymore, I made friends that helped me accept it. You won't get sorted into Gryffindor because you can ask the Sorting Hat to place you in Gryffindor. Just make sure that you really value courage and strength, and make sure it knows you're a Weasley," Kat laughed a little. "If you get sorted into Slytherin then you'll be in there with me and I'll make sure no one messes with you- not that you can't handle it yourself, you'd make a great Slytherin."
"Thank you Kat, and I know exactly who you mean about who helped you accept being a Slytherin." Ginny winked and Kat pushed her playfully.
"Oh come off it! No way, our families hate each other!"
"Have you or have you not written to him every week? Huh, huh? I bet you have! Look, you're blushing!" Ginny pushed Kat back and smirked.
"I am not! And if I have been writing him then it's because he told me to and he writes back! I also write to Hermione, Sky, and Pansy but you don't seem to care about that! You'll be writing Harry next summer when he isn't here!" Kat ran out of their room before Ginny could tackle her.
Scrambling down the stairs, the girls nearly run into Harry, Ron, Fred, and George.
"'Ello ladies!" George smirks at them. "What's got your wand in a knot?"
"What's pulling your nose into our business to make you so nosy?" Kat raises an eyebrow and fights to keep her blush down.
"Looks like juicy gossip would be what pulling our noses, do tell." Fred leans in and George follows. Ron rolls his eyes and leads Harry up the stairs to their room.
"It's about who Kat likes!" Ginny squeaks once Ron and Harry are gone.
"Oooh, wittle Kitty has got a wittle crush! Would it happen to be a certain blonde boy we see you with at school all the time?"
"I do not have a crush, and if I did then it wouldn't be on him!" Kat runs off to find Molly to protect her, which is always a good idea.
Ginny, George and Fred then went their separate ways; George and Fred went to their room to see what old Fumbledore was doing at school at that moment and Ginny went back to reorganizing her trunk before school.
