She would never take offense – Willow can’t help who her relations are. It has nothing to with who she is a person. She admired her greatly as she had the courage to stand up against what her father believed in – what a noble thing to say – treating every witch and wizard on an equal level, no matter what their bloodline is. “What about the rest of your family?” she asked quietly. “Your mother? – Do you have any siblings?”

As she listened to Willow’s advice, Kate felt like she was the smallest person alive. Not that she felt belittled by her friend, but when she heard an outsider’s perspective on things she could almost feel the pain Amos had felt when he saw what happened. “The thing is –“ she began. And she knew she was going to sound absolutely crazy to Willow. “But – after it happened. After Amos found out. It’s like something snapped me back into reality and I realized with absolute horror what I’d done. All Amos has ever done is care for me – in a way I thought was never possible. Kissing Josh – It meant nothing to me. I can live easily enough without Josh. But if I were to loose Amos – I’d hate to think of what would happen to me.”

She sighed and kicked at the ground. “I probably sound like a lunatic don’t I?” she asked quietly, then looked back up to Willow.

“I know I’ve never told you this before, Willow – But I value the friendship that we’ve started. It’s something I don’t want to loose either. I feel comfortable talking with you – you’re an easy listener and non-judgemental – You are a wonderful person through and through. I just – wanted you to know that.”
Willow pondered a little about her answer and then after a few seconds, she replied, "My mom, had nothing against muggloborns or halfbloods" she said simply, "She just..I suppose she is--was, a little scared of what my father might have thought if he found out that she was hanging out with them". And it was true, her mother had nothing against them. She just didnt talk with them. "Yes, I have two siblings" she said. "Elizabeth and Rilian. Elizabeth is 13, she left Hogwarts and went to a wizarding school in Panama after my mother past away last fall. And Rilian, he's 10 and he'll be attending to Hogwarts next term" She ended this thinking that no matter how much she used to fight with her sister, she truly missed her. "And for his own sake" she said regarding her brother, "I hope he get sorted into Gryffindor, so my dad won't get upset with him, as he did with me when I got sorted in Ravenclaw".
She heard Kate asking her about the rest of her family, "Well, my grandparents from the side of my dad, are the same thing" she said bitterly. "From my mum family..They don't mind muggleborns and halfbloods".

Willow listened to Kate talking about how much she felt sorry for kissing Josh and how she felt bad for Amos. She looked at her for a couple of seconds and finally said, "I hope it's true" she stare at her directly to see any kind of emotion in her eyes. "I hope it's true that you are over Josh. I Hope it's true, for you own sake, and for Amos. Because in the end, if you still have feelings for Josh, you are the one who is going to end hurt the most Kate. And your boyfriend, Amos" She said all of this sternly, yet he voice was calm. She did not wanted to sound as if she was lecturing her. She wanted to make it sound as an advice.
"And no, you don't sound lunatic. You sound a bit confused if you ask me" she said with a little smile.

The young Ravenclaw listened to Kate's words carefully, and she felt her cheeks turning scarlett. She opened her mouth a couples of time through her speech, but didn't manage to say anything.
"You are wonderful person and friend Kate. Don't let anyone, never, to make you feel like you are not" She said at her friend after, she felt her cheeks were back to her usual color.
