 Cassandra arrive right at 5pm down in the Great hall. It was the place they agreed to meet since niether could meet at the others common room location. So the Great hall was nuetral ground and since they met outside, no one saw them. It just seemed easier to keep it a secret until they were sure that they wanted to be serious. But off they went to Hogsmeade. Most of thier classmates had gone down at about noon since thats when the trip left and by the time they were leaving most where returning to the castle. This was good because now they would not be surrounded by Hogwarts students. After walking through Hogsmeade they pair found a nice table at the Three Broomsticks since it seemed to be the only place to get food besides Hogs Head. But Hogs Head was on the creepier side and at least at the Three Broomsticks they could get a table to themselves in the corner. That is exactly what they did. For dinner they were sitting at this table tucked away in the corner of the resturant/bar. The place was light decently since it was a bar and there was a few hogwarts students who appeared to also be on dates in the place. Cassandra turned towards him and smiled. "This place seems nice. Have you ever come to Hogsmeade before?" For the date Cassandra had thrown on some jeans to wear for when it got colder out tonight. She also was wearing a long sleeve black shirt that was a little low cut in the front. To complete the look she had in her mothers pearl earring since she wore them all the time. The earrings were nice and had so much meaning to her. This time she also put on some make up to look extra nice for him. She ran her fingers through her hiar as they talked. |

Kenny kept his word and at 5pm he made his way to the Great Hall being that it would be too much of trouble to go to the Slytherin Common Rooms and ask for Cassandra. It really seemed like much of a neutral area were nothing bad can ever happen as he waited for her. When she finally arrived they made the trip to Hogsmeade. Even though most of the students were returning to Hogwarts around the time they were leaving for Hogsmeade it actually seemed pretty decent because no other students will see them together and asked so many questions about them.
They walked around Hogsmeade and as Kenny looked around the places were pretty impressive as his mother told him about when he asked her about the places. It seemed to him that this was like a quiet little city of leisure time for the wizards of Hogwarts that want to take a break and have some fun for a change as he was with Cassandra while trying to find a place for dinner. Suddenly Cassandra suggested the Three Broomsticks as Kenny got a good look and figure maybe he should give it a try after all this was his first time at an area like this as they made there way inside.
Kenny was dressed warm for this date as he was wearing some nice light blue jeans, his usual sneakers that he wears all the time and a white long-sleeved shirt. His glasses were on his eyes cleaned up and his hair was combed really nice as he noticed Cassandra who dressed really nice for tonight. The two students were sitting down as Cassandra asked if he has been here before as he begin to answer. “Well, honestly not really. It’s my first time here at this place, my mother told me about Hogsmeade though. She said some of the places are really nice for the students to go to when they want to have a break from work.” he said as he watched her smile at him.

They were talking and relaxing as they had dinner. "Your mom seems nice. She went to Hogwarts right? Which house?" She asked just to make conversation. Her father was a Ravenclaw and Cassandra always figured that she would be in the same house since bloodline helped in determining your house. So she wondered if something like that happened to Kenny. But in some ways her blood line did determine her house since her grandmother had been a Slytherin.
Sometimes she heard about siblings being placed in the same house and thier parents where in that house. It made sense since a person with those values raised those children. Her mind drifted to her have her own children one day but she quickly pulled it back. With all of this thinking about the future she figured she needed to spent more time in divinations class to read her future better. But her mind began to drift again to the future. Part of her after this date wanted to share a special moment with kenny. She was ready to got further than just kissing. Secretly she wondered what he thought about going further than kissing. Again Cassandra smiled as they were talking and she was looking right at him. After all good coversation came from actually speaking to people and looking them in the eyes.
She smiled as she looked over at him. "yeah I come here alot. Its nice to get out of the castle since I feel like we spend most of our lives in there." She explained. Actually she found it weird that he had never been to Hogsmeade before. It was such a place and like everyone went as soon as they could. her favorite place was the tea shop since she could get a good cup of tea there or a good cup of coffee the owner served both.

Kenny seemed to be having a nice time as he and Cassandra were having there dinner as she asked him about his mother as he smiled knowing his mother was the one who supported him when he learned he was a wizard and took him away from the cruel muggle father that didn’t approve of him having magic. “She really is a nice person and she did went to Hogwarts. Her class was like mine which is Hufflepuff.” he said as he found it was nice to talk about his family for a change. “She happened to be a well known quidditch player too which is a real surprise”
When he went to England with his mother she would always go on about her side of the family who like her happened to be wizards and witches which to him at first was something that he would never imagine himself to be a part of. Truth be told he had more of his mother’s spunk and blood which may be the real reason he was magical. He did wish about being a father when he grew up as long as he wasn’t going to be as ruthless and mean as his muggle dad was to him which still made him feel sad. Being with Cassandra tonight was a real surprise somehow as he was enjoying the Three Broomsticks place as he took a bite of his dinner which seemed pretty good. He noticed that she was looking at him with those lovely eyes as if she was really becoming quite fond of him ever since they met at the tower.
He then listened on as Cassandra said that it was nice to get out of the castle once in a day as Kenny actually nodded in agreement. “Honestly it does feel good, I never knew what I was missing if I left the castle. This is a really nice place to have dinner and its really nice to be here with you” He said hoping he managed to make Cassandra feel happy by what he was saying. “I like to keep my grades good in Hogwarts to be fair, but I also honestly like to unwind for a change and see what its like to be in the outside world.” he said as he slowly took a sip of his drink.

She nodded when he explained that his mother had been in Hufflepuff as well. "Thats good. You guys can share Hufflepuff secrets." She said and smiled. "my dad was in Ravenclaw so him and I cant share house secrets." She added and played with her hair by tucking it behind her ear. then she heard him talk about Quidditch. "I assume you play as well?" She asked
Cassandra could not play quidditch to save her life, in fact she could not fly a broom to save her life. Her first year had been a challenge just because of the whole flying class. But the professor gave her a break and gave Cassandra a decent grade for trying as hard as she did. Not every witch was cut out for flying. However Cassandra did enjoy watching Quidditch, and she loved it even more when her house won. The after quidditch win parties in the common room were so much fun because everyone was just full of energy.
She nodded at his comment about grades. "well... we all love really grades but someones its important to relax and do something for yourself. One can not study all the time even if the Ravenclaws try to." She said and giggled at her comment. She studying alot and lately she found pleasure in just relaxing and being outside of the castle. She quickly glanced around the room to see if she knew anyone and thankfully she did not. Then she focused back on Kenny. Her mind began to wonder if they would kiss again tonight and if he would be upset if she tried to go further this time.
She decided it was time to ask the important question to Kenny. She moved a bit closer and smiled. "So Kenny... what do you think of me? Think you are still falling in love with me?" She asked since thats what he told her the other night in the tower. She was just intersted in seeing if he still felt the same even after they had spent this time together.

Kenny smiled a bit as Cassandra apparently seemed to like that his mother was a Hufflepuff student like he is now. He also had to laugh a bit after she said what might have been a joke when she said that he and his mother can share Hufflepuff secrets with each other as he was not certain if it was meant to be funny or maybe something that was probably useful to know. When she wanted to know if Kenny was in Quidditch he slowly nodded in approval as he spoke. “Well, I’m not perfect in the sport but I’m a good player I happen to be a chaser on the team, My mom was a well known chaser on the Hufflepuff team, her fellow teammates and students often called her Swift Sandra because of her quick speed.” He said as he took a sip of his drink while smiling.
Kenny did enjoy the sport of quidditch and was hoping that he may be perhaps the team hero that can do something that can be memorable for the quidditch team to be remembered by, though it was hard with all the school work that he had to concentrate on it was no wonder sometimes he just played moderately. He then listened on as Cassandra told him that it’s important to relax sometimes and do something once in a while as he never thought it could be done as he thought the objective of Hogwarts to do work and behave to win points. He felt so happy to hear these words as he noticed that Cassandra was looking around as if something was up though he didn’t bother to ask at all.
He looked on at her face as it looked like she had some make up on to look her best for him and then he noticed the lovely earrings on her as he was wondering if she was up to something. When he told her that he might be in love with her at the tower she was scared about it and reminded him that he barely knew him. Although she did forgive him and they shared a few romantic kisses to which she told him he was wonderful at. Suddenly, Kenny noticed Cassandra moved closer to him as she smiled at him asking what he thought of her as he blushed a bit and smiled. “Well, I think you’re really beautiful tonight and I like how that you asked me to take you out tonight.” He said as he noticed that she was closer to him. “Well I did say that and you got worried. I really want to say it and yet I don’t want to upset you because I think your really pretty” he said as he softly held her hand hoping she would react to this.

When he told her that he was a quidditch player she smiled and nodded. "Thats good because I really like watching Quidditch but I do have to warn you if Hufflepluff plays Slytherin then I have to cheer for my own house." She said and smiled. Cassandra loved going because it ment going up into those high towers and watching her fellow classmates cheer for thier team. Whenever the Slytherins were playing she felt like her house was there in full force and cheering. Then the after party was great, even if they won or lost.
There was nothing bothering her, she was justed used to being the quiet person in the group and when that happened she would always look around the room to see who was there. Was there someone she knew that she needed to speak to or was there someone she was trying to avoid. Luckily there was no one to avoid so she turned to focus back to Kenny as quickly as possible. It was just one of her weird habbits.
Ok so she was not trying to look overly like she had on make up but she knew she probably put on a bit more than needed. yes it was a casual date but that did not mean she could not look her best for him. After all it was her first date with Kenny and in general. She wanted this night to be special since it was her first. Then she looked down when he took her hand and back up at him. "i was more curious to see if your feelings changed for me over the past few days. After you've had time to think about it and process it." She explained. It wasnt that she wanted to hear him say it again but she wanted to know that he still felt the same about her.

Kenny did like the fact that Cassandra enjoyed watching the sport of Quidditch but warned him one thing which was that if he was playing her house Slytherin that she would have to cheer for her team which did worried him a bit. “Well what about if our team played in the finals of the Quidditch Cup and do great? Would you cheer unless Slytherin happened to be in it?” He asked her probably knowing that she would still cheer for Slytherin. It was really nice to actually have a good conversation now and then, and this was one of those times Kenny really seemed to be doing well in his first date.
Kenny did wonder though why Cassandra was closer to him as she was after she was asking him what he thought of her. He knew she enjoyed his kissing so much and he wondered if she wanted him to kiss him again though he did like it when she did kissed him on the lips by surprise. He wanted so much to say I love you to her and yet he wanted to know her much first before even getting a chance to say those words to her truthfully and right. Tonight was supposed to be a night for the two to have fun and unwind from all the drastic school work at the castle which probably kept them apart from checking out the outside world and having fun.
As Kenny kept his hand on Cassandra’s hand softly he looked at her as after he told her what he thought of her in response to her asking what did he thought of her. She then told her that she wanted to know if his feelings for her changed for her over the few days since that meeting at the tower where they first met and sparks happened between the two. “Cassandra, my feelings for you never really changed. That day when we met it was something I would never forget and I’m sure you wont forget either.” He said in a calm soft tone. “I want to say those words but I’m afraid you would probably get upset again. So, I want to ask you something.” He said as he took another sip of his drink as he felt a bit thirsty. “What do you think of me? Do you think I’m handsome?” he asked her hoping it was the right way before admitting his feelings for her.

She smiled as they talked about who she would cheer for in a Quidditch game between Hufflepuff and Slytherin. "Well really on the outside I would be cheering for Slytherin but I would cheer in secret for you." She commented and brushed her hair back with her fingers. Then she smiled and looked right at him. "I guess I would cheer for you in private after the game." She added and waited to see where he would take that comment. She ment for it to be a sensual comment.
She played with her drink as they were sitting there talking. Cassandra liked to watch it swirl around the glass as she tilted it slightly. She looked up from her glass at him. Love was not a word to be used right now, but she was feeling something. It might have been lust. However she liked this feeling of lust and trying to make it so he would be arosed by her. She knew the first step to becoming a better Slytherin women who ruled the school was to be able to make men turn thier heads as she walked down the hall. And she was working on it but right now she was sure that she felt some sort of lush for Kenny.
"I will never forget." She commented and smiled. The night after she left she went back to her bedroom and laid there. Her mind thought of everything that had happened. She smiled as she looked up at her brick ceiling and that night she slept. Of course it was only for a few hours but still more than anything in the past week. She snapped out of her thoughts when he asked what she thought of him. "Very handsome. From what I can tell you are smart and a very nice person. Whats not to like?" She asked and smiled. "Plus we share some memories and its been nice to talk to someone about them."

Kenny felt really relieved when he was told by Cassandra that she would secretly cheer for him if Hufflepuff were to compete against Slytherin in Quidditch as he smiled at her while he saw her mess around with her hair for a bit. “You’d really do that cheer in private for me? That’s very nice of you” he said as he sipped on his drink as his throat was a bit dry. She really seem to be so loyal for her team and yet she wanted to really show her support for him which really took him by quite a surprise.
He then noticed Cassandra swirling her drink around as she seemed to be having fun with it as he just smiled about it. It seemed that he was really giving her a good time on there date and she really was enjoying the dinner date as much as he was. He was shy at first when he came here and it was hard for him to make friends because he was so afraid to even speak to someone fearing that he or she might laugh at him. It wasn’t until he met Cassandra at the tower that night that he felt that not only did he seemed to have a good time speaking to a girl but ending up having romantic feelings and this was the same hufflepuff boy that had it difficult finding true love. He was slowly growing to be a real man here at Hogwarts and by speaking to Cassandra the process is going real good.
As Cassandra begin to answer his question of what she thought of him Kenny was surprised by her answer. He was told that he was very handsome and that he is a smart and nice person to hang around with as he felt like the conversation was going better as he continue to gaze upon her ever so lovely eyes. “Well that’s very sweet of you to say.” He said as he felt like he should ask her the question she should answer the most. “Well, I want to know honestly…..Do you, love me?” he asked hoping that she would really care for him.

She wondered if it would be possible for her to attend the Hufflepuff games for him but she was trying to figure out a way so no one would be suspecious. It might mean going to most of the quidditch games and missing a few hufflepuff games just to make sure that no one caught on to her pattern. But since no one seemed interested in her she could leave the common room and not be followed to the quidditch pitch. She just would wear no house colors to be identified.
It was wierd wanting to sneak around but the house competitions made things hard. Once they were serious she might think about going public. But that was a conversation for a later date for them to have. Right now she smiled and nodded. "yes I would cheer for you." She added. Right now she just felt like she was one of the lovely slytherin girls who ruled the school since she was on a date with a cute boy and she was thinking about going further. How would she initation that? Kissing would be easiest but she was nervous that he would not want to fo further and she would look like an idiot who threw herself at him. Secretly she did not want to look stupid or vonerable.
She gave him an honest answer. It was what she believed. Unlike most Slytherins she did not lie much. However she did lie about some pretty big things like where her mother and siblings were. Then he asked her if she loved him. She took a moment to think about it. "I wouldnt call it love yet but give it a few weeks and it will become love." She explained. "So I like you alot... I am just not ready for love." She answered and he should have know this answer. She was scared to say that she loved someone.

Kenny felt that she really did want to support him in his quidditch games with hufflepuff though he had a feeling that people would find that a slytherin supporting a hufflepuff would lead to suspicion with everyone else. He really did care so much for her but was afraid to keep this romance a secret because it would lead both of them to probably be in a war of trouble with both slytherin and hufflepuff. He didn’t mind if she did watch a few games of him but if it did come to Slytherin vs. Hufflepuff then it would be a real mess of trouble though he would understand that it was only because the two are rivals.
Part of him felt really different inside him as Kenny was here with Cassandra at The Three Broomsticks. Now that he has been here he would considered this a possible hangout place whenever he feels like he needs to unwind from all the long studying and training that he has endured at Hogwarts. He was happy that she would cheer for him as he grinned at her answer “Thank you so much” he said as he felt like he should kiss her but it was just too soon for now as he noticed her feeling a bit funny. He looked on as he noticed she was onto something, he wanted to ask her if she was ok yet he knew she was probably ok.
After he gave her an honest question if she really loved him or not Kenny looked on as Cassandra thought it over. He watched her think about it after all they shared such a wonderful night together at the tower with there romantic kissing together and he wonder now if she really did love him. She then answered him by saying that she liked him for now and that she is not ready for love but to wait a few weeks as Kenny sighed for now and held her hand softly as he smiled. “Well ok and I guess its is safe to say for now that I like you too Cassandra, if your not ready yet for love I understand. I am glad that we have the chance though to hang out together” he said hoping to keep her spirits up as he softly kissed her hand like a gentleman.

The rivalry wasnt as bad as it was between Gryffindor and Slytherin, but still it seemed like everyone hated Slytherin. But Cassandra was alright with that since it ment that no one paid attention to her. She was just another Slytherin up to some evil plot that would result in the downfall of everything and Gryffindor, as well as the other houses, would be there to save everyone from the evil that was Slytherin. Oddly she did not care since she knew that in order to have balance in the world there must be some bad to compliment the good.
No one had to like her since everyone needed someone to hate. There was good and there was evil. Plain and simple. She understood this concept and tried to keep some sort of balance in her life because of it. Lying was her bad and getting good grades was her good, for example. She took a deep breath and calmed down, obviously nothing more than kissing would take place tonight if he ever actually did it. She wanted him to kiss her so badly.
Then he replied to her answer. As soon as he sighed she knew that it was not the answer that he wanted to hear. "Listen Kenny I cant say that I love you right this second. You just have to live with that if you want to keep dating me. I promise I will be able to stay it one day." She explained and hoped that he would stop looking so depressed about it. Again she just wanted him to kiss her. She wanted to feel that passion between them again through physical contact.
"So... you ready to go for that walk under the stars?" She suggested since maybe that is what they needed. The Threebroom Sticks had been nice but she was ready for the cold night air and seeing if maybe thats what it took to get him to kiss her again.

So far the date had been fairly ok as it was the first time that Kenny had ever been to Hogsmeade which was really a nice place which he now understand that 5th years really do love this place as the dinner was really good for both him and Cassandra. They shared so much tonight that it was hard to keep up as the first date for these two went off with no concern people wanting to know why a Hufflepuff would be dating a Slytherin. He hoped though that maybe she would probably give him a romantic kiss from out of nowhere though it would seemed strange to kiss in front of many other people here.
He never really knew what it was like to really fall in love as he would just expect it to go and hit him like an arrow from a bow of romance but now it seemed that it didn’t seem to matter as he was here tonight with Cassandra and that it was a special night for them. He listened on to her as she told him that if he wants to continue dating her he can and that she will promise to say those words one day as Kenny slowly nodded in approval as he spoke up. “Well I can live that It’s true that we only know each other right now. It is best that we do wait for now, that is a great idea” he said as he showed a smile to her knowing he was ok with the decision.
Suddenly, Cassandra suggested that they should go outside and look at the stars which was something that really got his interest up. “That sounds like a nice idea, Lets go then shall we?” he said as he decided to help her up like a gentleman as they took care of the stuff they bought at the broomsticks and then were ready to go outside. He figured that maybe while they were outside she would probably go and give him a passionate romantic kiss by surprise which may seem so impressive to kiss under the stars.

She loved coming to Hogsmeade. Another great thing about it was that all students from Hogwarts would wear normal clothing, so unless you knew someone personally then people got away with all sorts of secret romances. So as long at kenny was willing to come here she knew that they could continue with this romance and keep some osrt of secret about it. It did excite her to think having some sort of secret romance.
She knew that it was never like it showed in the movies because then life would be too easy. But she expected things to come more natural to her. Her mother never stopped loving her father she just decided the wizarding life was not for her. And she knew her father loved her mother and he was willing to give up his life as a wizard for her but she just left. That letter made Cassandra jaded in a way so she knew that saying 'I love you' the first time would be difficult and she wanted to make sure that she ment it 10987034920%. The phrase was not something you could take back and she wanted it to be special. But she could see herself being with Kenny and maybe reaching the point where she was totally ready to say it to him. Part of her knew that he was excited for that day.
She thanked him when he helped her up and then she put on her sweater before they headed outside. Luckily it was not freezing yet just on the cooler side. But unlike the other night there was no breeze which was nice since it made it a little warmer. She smiled as she looked back at him. "We luckied out. Its a nice evening out." She commented and walked towards the scenic route away from Hogsmeade. They would not get lost though since the lights from the castle could still be seen. "So... see any good stars?" She asked and looke dup at the sky.
