The next day came quickly, he had awoke shockingly at the same time at 6 in the morning to take his usual jog. Although he felt a bit tired from the previous nights activities, a jog would at least clear his head. As he was returning back to the common room, he heard a very familiar airy voice. 

"Hello Harry," he turned and saw Daphne, leaning on a wall near the door. 

"Hello Queenie, what's got you up so early?" asked Harry. 

(Fun fact, Daphne's original name was supposed to be Queenie, but was given instead to Queenie Goldstein in Fantastic Beasts. So, Queenie is Daphne's nickname given by Harry) 

"Oh nothing Harry," said Daphne. "Just came to see you." 

"How did you know I was here?" asked Harry, obviously looking at her necklace. 

"I felt a pull on the necklace... I just felt you in it," said Daphne, caressing it. "How did you get it?" 

"Thats for you to find out and me to keep secret," said Harry as he smirked and pushed forward his abs which was shown through his shirt. "Are you sure you didn't go to see something else?" 

Daphne blushed. "Shut up..." 

"Or what?" asked a grinning Harry. 

"I won't kiss you ever again!" she said, matching his smirk as he grimaced. 

Harry grimaced as he placed his hands on his heart. "Oh the agony! Queenie won't give me kisses...The pain." 

He then went closer to her and looked at her deep blue eyes before closed the gap between them in a deep kiss, Daphne opening her mouth for Harry's tongue to roll in. They kept kissing till they ran out of breath and broke it off. 

"Well," said Harry panting. "I guess all that tension over the summer broke off." 

"Yes indeed," said Daphne smiling as she leaned into Harry and then moved back, holding her nose. "Ew!" 

"What?" 

"You stink!" 

"Well obviously Queenie, I came from my morning jog," said Harry shaking his head. "Come on, I'll take you to the common room, I need to dress." 

"Fine, so as long as I'm allowed to see those abs." 

Harry rolled his eyes. "Fine, bloody hungry banshee..." 

"What did you say?" asked Daphne, twirling her wand. 

Harry gulped. "Nothing, let's go."

The surroundings in the great hall was sufficiently normal, of course, houses were separated to their respective tables. However, the hat's message did push through a few and some brave Gryffindor's- specifically Orion and Hermione- sat on the Slytherin table with Daphne and Blaise and surprisingly Theo. 

Dumbledore looked in shock at the event that just took place, this wasn't part of the plan. That damn hat! Gryffindor's and Slytherin's were supposed to stay divided but that stupid hat had to interrupt his plans. He smiled as he saw Mr. Weasley (Ronald) and his sister jeer at the Slytherins and at Ms. Granger. 

All of a sudden, the door burst open and in walked Harry, holding the arm of Ms. Greengrass. It would have been normal, had she not been leaning her head on his shoulder like a couple. Everyone stared at them, Harry just softly let her go and stared at them, placing his wand to his mouth. 

"Attention everyone!" he said. "If you heard the hat's message, if anyone is brave enough, please mingle with the other houses. It is a small request on my part, my friends are from multiple houses, I ask that you follow."
