Pairing: Cho/George
Word Count: 329
Prompt: late
It takes her a moment to get her bearings in the morning. All she can register at first is the bright light hitting her face and the incessant throbbing in her head.
But a quick pain-relieving charm later, she notices she's in a strange bed, with what feels like a man by her side. And looking around the room, it's definitely not hers.
She doesn't dare to look at the figure next to her, dreading seeing who it is. The last thing she remembers is being at the Hog's Head, laughing with the old D.A. members while knocking back Firewhiskey shots. What of the person besides her is Harry, or worse, Michael? She really doesn't want to find out that she spent the last night with an ex.
So she quietly summons her scattered clothes and gets ready to leave. But as she leaves the bed, she catches a glimpse of flaming red hair.
Well, not an ex then.
Of course, she's curious enough to check which of the three - it should have been four - possible Weasleys it is.
(She hopes that it's George. She'd feel awful if she came in the way of Ron and Hermione, and Ginny may be a sweet girl, but Cho doesn't swing that way.
And she may or may not have been habouring a tiny crush on George Weasley since her Hogwarts days.)
When she realises it is George Weasley - well she's already late for work, so there's no way she can stay, but...
She quickly conjures up a piece of parchment and a quill.
Dear George,
I don't know how much you remember of last night. I don't know exactly what happened, but somehow I woke up in your bed today morning.
Sorry I left; I needed to get to work.
If you'd like to do the last night over again, minus the pub, the drinks and the waking up in a strange bed, of course, owl me.
-Cho
