Tanya waited in Hogsmede for the Webbs to show up as agreed upon by her owl to them only a few days prior. She knew she was a few minutes early but she wanted to be the first one there since she'd been the one to arrange things. She sat outside on a bench near a fountain so she could easily spot any of them coming. They were supposed to meet at the coffee shop since the kids were too young to really be in the pub.
She checked her timekeeper and went back to waiting.

Pulling back from Kara's delicious lips, he realized it was about time to meet Tanya in Hogsmeade. Lifting his wife off the small table in their bedroom, he placed her on the floor as he turned around and grabbed his robes off the bed. Putting them on he grabbed his boots and put on his cloak. With a quick wink to his wife he disapparated to Hogsmeade. Spotting Tanya right away, he closed the distance between them. "Afternoon Tanya, Kara will be along shortly.."

Kara moaned softly as his lips left hers and he pulled away. As her feet met the ground she grinned at him like a cat who had just caught a canary and leaned against the table as she watched him dress before one last look at her and a wink. As soon as he disapparated into thin air however, she chuckled to herself and went to go find her own clothing. It was a special occasion, so she found her best black corset and slid into black leather pants and knee high heeled boots. She added a belt for good measure and then put on her floor length black cloak, though she left the hood down. It was cool out and she wanted the cloak to warm her bare shoulders, though she wore the same tops even in the cold weather out of habit.
It took her a few moments however to find her wand. She knew she'd dropped it somewhere between the door, bed and table.. and then she finally found it haphazardly laying where it had been tossed a few hours earlier on the floor. She chuckled again as she tucked her wand at the holster on her thigh. Her hair was tousled like normal as she ran a finger through it and shrugging she took a quick step and turn as she disapparated from the room.
When she reappeared in Hogsmede she saw her husband standing next to Tanya. She walked over to join them and smiled at Tanya. "Hello Tanya."

Tanya smiled as first Kenneth Webb saying hello to him and then waiting for Kara to show up. What had to be ten minutes later Kara managed to finally apparate nearby and she nodded to the woman. "Hello Kara, they should be here any moment. I told Timothy to meet me in the coffee shop with Katarina. I figured I'd just wait out here for you two, shall we?" Tanya motioned inside and then lead them to a table which left room for two empty seats. She waited till they sat down before finding a seat between the two empty ones. It wasn't really to torture the children but she couldn't help a momentary thought of separating them just for her own private amusement. And then waited with the Webbs for the children to show up.

Ken entered the small coffee shop, pulling out a chair for Kara he took his seat after she had taken hers. With Tanya sitting across the table from them, he began to relax a bit. They had been waiting for this moment for a long time and he couldn't be nervous or scared right now. He had to be strong for both Kara and himself, reaching over he grasped his wife's hand squeezing gently. "I do hope they show soon."

Kara sat and squeezed her husband's hand for reassurance. He, of course, knew her nerves were shot at this moment. He was worried and excited at the same time but she tried not to show how much. She smiled at him and waited hoping they would show soon. She just hoped that Katarina took the news well. She wondered if Katarina would take their name again once things had been worked out. At least until she was old enough to be married to the Scotts.

Kat sat outside the castle, waiting patiently for Timmy to arrive so they could go to Hogsmeade and meet his aunt. Kat was honestly a ball of nerves. It was quite important to her that she made a good impression on Tim's family, she's hate for them to hate her.
A chilly breeze blew over and Kat wrapped her cloak tightly around her. She hoped Tim would come soon, it was getting cold just sitting there.

Timothy finished throwing on his house robes and grabbing his wand. Kat was waiting for him so that they could meet his aunt today and he was more than a bit nervous. Rushing down the winding halls and twisting stairwells of the school, he ran out of the main entrance and saw Kat just outside of the castle. Running up to her he gave her a hug and a kiss on the cheek. "C'mon Kat, I can't believe today is the day!" He said as they walked down to Hogsmeade holding hands.
Reaching the coffee shop, Tim saw his aunt with a couple friends. "Hrm, she brought friends...no worries." Skipping inside, he beamed at his aunt Tanya. "Hey Auntie! I want you to meet someone." Motioning Kat forward, "This is Katarina, auntie!"

Tanya grinned warmly when she saw Timothy appear in the door of the coffee shop. She stood up and made sure to give him a big hug before turning to Katarina. "Hello, Timothy, sweetheart. And it is a pleasure to meet you Katarina. Why don't you both have a seat and I'll introduce you to my friends." Her eyes twinkled with the hidden surprise of knowing something they didn't and Timothy would likely recognize that look in her face as such.
"I would like you both to meet Mr Kenneth Webb and his wife, Ms Kara Webb. Kara and Kenneth, this sweet boy here is Timothy Scotts, the nephew I told you about. And of course this is Katarina, his date for the dance." She smiled making the introductions, careful not to slip the surprise until the couple had a chance to at least meet their daughter before she knew who they were.

Kat smiled shyly as Tim introduced her to his aunt and as she introduced them both to her friends. "It's nice to meet you Ms. Scotts," Kat said politely, shaking her hand. "You two Mr. and Mrs. Webb," she shook their hands and took a seat and looked at Tim, hoping he'd take the seat beside her.

Tanya returned to the empty seat in the middle, smirking to herself as she sat between the only two empty seats left. It was small but she knew it would annoy Tim to not get to sit next to his little girl friend. But she had her reasons in the end, neither of them knew it yet though that was all. "Sit down Timothy, you remember the Webbs right?"

As Tim saw the Webb's he wondered why his aunt had invited them. Shaking the questions from his mind he smiled at the small group. "Hey Mr. and Ms. Webb!" Shaking their hands he turned and saw his aunt had taken the seat next to Katarina. Giving her a look that could kill if it was able he took the seat next to Tanya and smiled at everyone.

As the young blond haired witch walked into the coffee shop, Ken nearly ran and grabbed her into his arms. After so long they were once again reunited with Katarina. She was beautiful and both Timothy and her made a strapping young couple Tim thought. "Pleasure to meet you...Katarina." His other hand slipped over to Kara's and gripped it tightly. "Always a pleasure to see you Timmy."

Kara had to consciously remember to not hold her breath when the girl entered, but she couldn't help the warm smile that spread across her face from the moment she saw her. She was beautiful and had hair the color of her fathers and her own brown eyes. She wanted to hug her daughter and never let her go, but she knew the girl would not understand and so she refrained herself. She did however grip Ken's hand tightly in return to keep them both from running to her. "Hello Timothy... and a true pleasure to meet you as well Katarina."

Kat sat a little awkwardly between Mr. Webb and Tanya, but when she saw the way Tim looked at his aunt before taking a seat, Kat smiled at him, letting him know that everything was fine.
She felt like all eyes were upon her, so she decided to make convorsation. "So what is it that you do Mr. Webb?" Kat asked, a polite tone in her voice. Years of joining her aunt and uncle at adult functions taight her how to make good convorsation, especially with other adults.

Ken couldn't believe it, Kat was speaking to him. His exhilaration rising he had to take a few deep breaths to keep himself under control. "Well Kat, I don't actually work. My family is very wealthy and so I spend my days watching over that wealth, investing it if I see a good reason and whatever else I need to." Smiling at his beautiful daughter he thought for a moment before speaking.
"What about you Katarina? What would you like to do when you graduate?" Shooting a glance in Tanya's direction, he needed her help on this one, he wasn't in the right mind to decide when they should tell Katarina.

"That must be nice," Kat nodded, thinking of the middle class muggle lifestyle she lived in. "Actually, I'm not entirely sure what I'm interested in doing after Hogwarts. I've been toying with the idea of working in the Ministry, though that is a rather broad choice, since I wouldn't know what PART of the Ministry I'd work in."
She fiddled with her hands under the table, KAt never knew what to do with her hands. If they had ordered coffee, She'd hold her cup. If she was sitting next to Tim, she'd be gripping his hand under the table. But for now, they sat in her lap.

Tanya could see nerves on all sides of the table and she inwardly was pleased with it. But she had a reason for being here, one of her own as well as the Webbs. "Katarina, tell me about yourself a little. Timothy says you're in Hufflepuff as well, what is your family background. I'm afraid I don't know any Gresh wizarding families off the top of my head. What things are you interested in.. that type of thing."
Her reason for asking was double.. one to let her parents learn more about their daughter.. but also to see how suitable she was for Timothy despite his like of her. Of course she already knew about Katarina's real family background, but she slightly wanted to see Timothy squirm since he didn't know she knew the truth.

Kat bit her lip a bit and looked at Tim with a sort of 'help me!' look in her eyes. "Well, Ms. Scotts, I'm not entirely sure about my background. I live with my aunt and uncle in London, they're muggles." She wasn't sure how Tim's aunt would react to her belief that she was muggle born, so she skirted around it. "I like Quidditch and reading, and I'm a pretty good student at school..." she trailed off slightly and blushed. She didn't really like telling people about herselt, it felt like boasting.

Before Tim could say or do anything, Kat gave him a look of complete helplessness and then just blurted out that her parents were muggle. His hands gripping the table so tightly that his knuckles began to turn red. Thoughts raged wildly inside his mind as he tried to think of a way out of this situation and then it hit him.."Don't you mean your aunt and uncle live around the muggles Kat?" Feigning his best chuckle he hoped his aunt bought the act, it was a far shot but it had been the best he could hope for.
