Title: Please

Summary: Please don't take him just because you can.

Disclaimer: I own neither Harry Potter nor the song, which is "Jolene" by Dolly Parton. I just edited the song a little, but that still doesn't make it mine.

A/N: I just can't stop writing oneparters. I seem to get inspired by pretty much every song I listen to, and I love exploring new angsty plots.


I'm begging of you please don't take my man

I am writing this letter because I am desperate. I never was one to beg but I don't know what else to do now. Please Cho, please don't take him.

Your beauty is beyond compare

With flaming locks of raven hair

You were always the pretty one. Everybody liked you. I should have known he would fall for you.

Your smile is like a breath of spring

Your voice is soft like summer rain

And I cannot compete with you

I used to think that I was pretty in my own way, but I guess I was just not pretty enough. I guess he wanted something more than plain beauty. He wanted the mystery. The beauty that was sung about by so many musicians. Nobody would ever write a song about me.

He talks about you in his sleep

There's nothing I can do to keep

From crying when he calls your name

And yet, somehow, he became mine. After fifth year, after I'd finally given up hope, somehow things changed. Somehow - I still don't know exactly how - I managed to ensnare Harry Potter. And, which is even stranger, I managed to hold on to him. Every year that passed, every pretty girl that walked by, he stayed by my side. Until he met you again.

And I can easily understand

How you could easily take my man

But you don't know what he means to me

Please Cho. I know you are a nice and kind girl. I know you're not the type to hurt anyone. Please don't spend time with him. Please don't smile at him like that. Please don't be you. I can't compete with you. I know that you're the only one I could lose him to, and I get so scared when he calls out your name in his sleep.

You could have your choice of men

But I could never love again

He's the only one for me

Please...please. Let me keep him. You can get every man you want, let me keep this one. You don't care about him anymore, do you? Do you? Please tell me you don't care about him. I feel him slipping through my fingers. I feel how he avoids my look when he wakes up. I know he feels guilty, dreaming about you. Yet he can't help it. And neither can you, because you're not flirting with him. He told me so. He told me you two are just friends and that he is over you. But he isn't. I just hope that you're not lying to me either. I hope you're really over him.

I had to have this talk with you

My happiness depends on you

And whatever you decide to do

Please stay away from him Cho. I'm begging you. If you care just a little about me, then please. I can make Harry happy. I know I can. He was happy when you weren't in his life. I was happy. I can be happy again if you just leave. I will be with him forever. I know I will be worrying about you if you stay in his life, so please. Do me this one favour. Leave. I can be happy again when you leave. I think.

Ginny Potter.
