Chapter 4
Cho Chang sat down to breakfast in the Great Hall, bleary-eyed and bed-haired.
"Hey Cho!" said Dean.
"Hi Cho!" said Neville.
"What's up, Chang?" asked Draco.
"How's the Cho?" added Seamus. A huge cluster of boys had gathered around a bedraggled but still beautiful Cho Chang. She just muttered unintelligible, snarky replies at them. Suddenly, she picked up something on her Harry-Radar. Quickly, she pulled several compacts and makeup containers out of her messenger bag; applied her mascara, eyeliner, eyeshadow, lipgloss, foundation, blush and brushed her hair in all of a minute.
"Hi Harry!" she ran over to him beaming.
"You look nice…" he said, looking her over.
"Oh, I'm glad you noticed!" she said shyly, tilting her head up for a peck. Harry bent over and kissed her. Ginny, who had been hanging on Harry's arm frowned and yanked on her blouse, attempting to drag it lower.
"Look, Harry!" she trilled, tossing back her dyed blond hair (she dyed it in an attempt to gain all of Harry's affections.) He paid her no mind, his eyes locked on Cho.
"Harry…" she slipped out her lip in a Pout. He still ignored her. Ginny muttered a list of obscenities then stood on her tip-toes and shrieked in his ear.
"Harry!!!!!" Harry finally turned around and looked at the pouting Ginny.
"You're neglecting me…" Ginny sniffed sadly, trying to discreetly kick Cho Chang in the shin.
"I'm sorry. Come here…" he gave her a hug and kissed her on the top of her head. Cho Chang's eyes widened and her lip-glossed mouth dropped open in an O.
"HARRY!!!" she shouted.
"Ha-ha!" Ginny crowed, grabbed Harry by his collar, yanked his head down and kissed him.
"Okay, you know what? This is thelast straw!!!" Cho took off her robe that was on top of her blouse and threw it out to her adoring fan club (consisting mainly of boys). Ginny, in turn, shrugged off her own robe and handed it to Harry. As the two girls readied to scratch each others eyes out; Draco stepped forward.
I can get rid of Harry in one fell swoop, and get closer to Hermione through them at the same time! he thought to himself.
"Ladies, ladies, please. Is it really necessary to do this?" he asked. Cho and Ginny just looked at each other and said in union: "Yes."
Draco raised his eyebrows. "Really? I thought it would be Harry's fault."
"Why?" they chimed.
"Because," Draco paused for suspense, "I would think that it would be Harry's fault, because instead of being loyal to one girl; he goes for them all! How does that feel?"
"You're right!" Ginny growled and whirled around to face Harry. Cho glared daggers at him.
"You. Are. Going. DOWN, mister!" they made as if to slap him. Harry trembled, then shrieked and tore like a rocket out of the Great Hall.
End Chapter 4
Voldie: Go figure, the rotten chicken. I have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA how that freak evades me all the time!(shakes his head in disgust)
FallenAngelGirl: (nods in agreement) Oh, yeah. Major goober.
JollyRoger: the goober-est!
LaLaFaery: (snorts) Puh-lease! He's such a dork, kinda like Voldie is, no offense…
JollyRoger: anyways, my agent (cough, cough, slave-driver) finally told me I could take some time off, so here it go! (starts to walk offstage)
Voldie: Thank you for that, now back to writing. (grabs JollyRoger by the back of her shirt and drags her back to center stage)
JollyRoger: (screeches loudly in protest) What happened to 'take some time off'?!
LaLaFaery: (smirk)Haha,\. You totally fell for the ol 'oh yeah, you're almost done, just write 15 more chapters and you can have a break'!
JollyRoger: I hate this. (scowl) I'm going to go feel sorry for myself now—
Voldie: Ahem…
JollyRoger: While brainstorming (storms offstage, muttering a startling array of creative and foreign obscenities).
