Blind Date

"Thanks again for lunch Mrs. Potter, you are a wonderful chef! Harry is lucky to have you." Dudley complimented his gracious hostess.

"I'm glad you enjoyed it, I learned from the best! Please call me Ginny, we are family after all." she replied with a tired grin

"Er... Okay Ginny, you're right we are family."

"Now then Big D I have a favor to ask..." Harry interrupted, throughly enjoying the look he received for using Dudley's old nickname.

"I owe you for protecting me and mum and..." Dudley broke off emotion clogging his features.

"I'm sorry about your dad mate, maybe this will help keep your mind off things for a bit. . . I need you to go on a double date with Ginny and I. We had nice bloke named Seamus lined up for one of Ginny's friends but he changed his mind last minute, now she's dateless."

Dudley looked oddly flustered at his cousins request.

"No pressure Duds. We're gonna go out for dinner in London and see a movie afterwards. Neither her or Ginny have been to a movie before."

"Tonight? I don't have any plans so, well okay. Meet you guys here?"

"6:30 tonight, we've got reservations at 7." supplied Ginny. "Oh, my friends name is Cho."

-XXXXX-xxxxx-XXXXX-

Dudley knocked on the door at exactly 6:30p.m. and was greeted by the most beautiful Asian women he had ever seen. In a moment of unexpected grace he bowed to her extending his hand.

"You must be Cho. . . You are lovely madam!"

Cho blushed prettily taking his extended hand primly and curtsying in response.

"That means you're Dudley? It's a pleasure to meet you, I wasn't expecting someone so polite, it's quite a nice difference."

Harry and Ginny reminded them of their reservations, effectively interrupting the special moment that was happening between the two.

Dinner was a fast paced affair Ginny and Cho dominating the conversation with talk of quiddich. In almost no time they were headed to the theater to see the latest release; 28 Days Later.

Harry and Ginny cuddled up almost immediately engrossed in the horror movie, while Dudley and Cho were sitting on the edge of their seats. At a particularly scary moment Cho grabbed his hand and squeezed tightly looking away from the gore.

She smiled awkwardly at him, returning her gaze to the movie. Holding tightly to his hand.
