Author's Note: Written for dustbunny105's Sapphic Stocking on hpsapphicappeal. The request that I filled was Cho/Ginny, friends with benefits.

It was just for fun, just a little something to do to release tension. It was exactly what both of them needed after practicing Quidditch together until their legs ached from gripping the brooms. It was even good exercise.
At least, that was how Ginny justified her long excursions in the changing rooms with Cho.
It was all in good fun, she thought, when they showered together and she pushed Cho against the wall and kissed her until her mouth hurt and worked her with her fingers until she moaned. Just a healthy expression of vitality.
The first time that Cho had leaned over to Ginny after they finished practicing Quidditch together and kissed her on her mouth, Ginny had been surprised. She had blushed and stammered and said that she liked Cho 'as a friend', and she 'didn't want to ruin it', and Cho had just smiled and said that they wouldn't ruin it with a bit of physicality. They were both physical girls, after all. Athletes. They were at home in their bodies; there was no need for either of them to be ashamed of making full use of them.
And Cho had been right.
They were still friends. They still talked about Quidditch, and the Ministry, and books, and sometimes even about boyfriends.
The only thing that had changed between them was that now, once in a while, they communicated with their bodies instead of with their words.
