It was a cold, rainy, summer day and Cho Chang had no intention of doing schoolwork. She looked at it, without really looking at it, and there was a lot to look at. Her parents were at work at the ministry, and her little sister Lin, was at a friend's house, so she had the whole house to herself.
She was at age that she could use magic outside of school, so she magically made herself a cup of tea, and flopped down on the beanbag chair in her bedroom. She was looking around her bedroom, when her eyes fell on her dresser. It was littered with objects of all kind. Her eyes fell upon a picture from her fifth year.
It was of her and Cedric at the Yule Ball.
"Oh Cedric", she whispered as her eyes became misty, as she looked at the black and white photograph, and even though there was no color, she could remember everything vividly like it was yesterday.
Flashback............It was the night of the Yule Ball and everything was perfect. Her girls had helped her get her hair and make-up done, and now she was ready. As Cedric came out of the dorm, she could do nothing but stare. He looked like a prince, in shining armor. His 'armor' was his silver dressing robe that fit him perfectly. When he spotted her, he smiled his award-winning grin, and he felt the color rising in her cheeks. He gracefully took her hand, and muttered endlessly about how beautiful she looked.
After dinner was done, and the music started, he swept her gracefully into her arms, and they started to dance. They danced, and danced, and danced the night away. Then a photographer took their picture, and when he was, Cedric pulled her up into a passionate kiss. She moaned into his mouth, and they kept on kissing, forgetting the photographer was even there. She didn't have a care in the world, and the night was magical and nothing could go wrong. She was in love.
End Flashback......
When Cho's memory flash ended, her faced was drowned in salty tears. She was remembering the good times, but the good times soon turned into horrible times.
The night Cedric was killed; she wanted to believe she was in a nightmare that she couldn't wake-up from, but that was impossible.
Flashback...It was a warm, June night, and the weather was great, but the atmosphere was anything but that. It was a living hell. As soon as the Quidditch field started to flood with people, she knew something was up. She raced down the stairs, her head spinning with thoughts. When she got down, she pushed her way slowly to the front, ignoring the protests from her fellow classmates. When she got to the front, she wished she hadn't.
Cedric was dead. She felt faint, and she couldn't process anything together. Maybe Cedric was just sleeping? Then she heard someone announce that he WAS dead, and her world was suddenly turned upside down.
When he was carried into the castle, she got her voice together and screamed, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!" Then she fainted.
End Flashback......
When Cho finally came back from Memory Lane, she found out that she had practically cried her eyes out, and that her tea was stone cold.
"Damn", she muttered under her breath. Cho took a closer look at the picture, and saw something she hadn't seen before. She frowned, and looked behind her and Cedric snogging, there was someone watching them with jealously. Harry.
"Harry" she whispered, her heart full of emotions such as love, hate, compassion, and jealously. On her dresser besides the picture and junk, there was another item that she had saved. It was the piece of mistletoe that she and Harry had experienced their first kiss under. She had put an everlasting spell on it so that it would never die. As Cho took a sip from a new cup of tea, and settled in her plush beanbag chair as she remembered that night as if it had been last night.
Flashback....
The last D.A. meeting before the Christmas break had gone well, and Cho was feeling pleased with herself. Harry had complimented her many times, and walked passed her too much, and her stomach had gone all flip-floppedy on her. Everybody was leaving, but Cho stayed behind, a master plan in mind. Unexpectedly, she had started crying when only she and Harry were left. Harry had confronted her, and comforted her, and her plan was somewhat going as planned.
"Oh Harry, I really, really, like you." She mumbled to him. His eyes were the greenest green, and his unruly black hair looked like the midnight sky.
"Mistletoe?" Harry said shyly. They were so close, and so lost in another world. Then Harry put his hand on her back, pulling her close, while she fingered with his mane of hair. Then, without a second thought, he made it so their lips were together, and they were kissing. Harry was shy at first, but then got the hang of it. He kissed her warmly, and shivers spread down Cho's spine. After a few seconds, Harry moved his hand to her neck, and softly prodded her lips with her tongue. She smiled, and gracefully opened to let him in. His tongue darted in, and Cho did the same, feeling warm all over.
After a few minutes of their make-out session, Harry unwillingly pulled away and smiled handsomely.
"Happy Christmas, Cho."
"Happy Christmas, Harry."
End Flashback.........
When Cho finished thinking and remembering, her face was unreadable. Harry had been a bitch sometimes, especially with that Hermonie Granger. Was he cheating on her when they were together? Also, he seemed to sometimes have no sympathy for her.
Cedric had probably been a better boyfriend, but there was no way they could be again. If only Cedric was still alive, she wouldn't have to deal with Harry. Her love life had been pretty complicated so far, but now she had a new boy in her head. She knew it would be a total mistake if she went out with him, but she could still dream and believe.
The new boy's name was Ron Weasly.
