Katie had just finished up a rather long shift, and plenty of paper work. She didn't want any mistakes on anything she was turning in with Umbridge and her interviews. She didn't need to give that woman any ammunition against her.
She decided to stop by the pub on her way home to have a drink, maybe see if Seamus was around or anyone else she knew, since Fred was busy for the evening.
Of course luck was not on her side, and she almost turned around when she saw Miles standing at the bar. Of course he noticed her before she could make a break for it and she would never give Miles the satisfaction of seeing her runaway from him.
"You're exactly right." She rolled her eyes at him and took up a stool at the bar. "I don't know where my head has been all these years, and to think I could have been with you all this time."
