Harry was seated at the Slytherin table across from Tracy, pretending to listen to what she was saying. It was December and there was only five days until the holidays, and Harry wasn't looking forward to them at all. The last month and a bit had been interesting to say the least. After the interview he had given hit the paper most of his classmates had stopped thinking he was crazy and attention seeking and had instead started to pity him for having his memory messed with. However, most of the people who had believed him were confused as to what to think. Umbridge was thrilled that he had come to his senses and was following the ministry, when ever she saw him she would smile and give him five points. The Gryffindors hadn't been to sure how they felt about him, on one hand he was not longer crazy, but on the other he was playing seeker for their biggest opponents, but after Angelina had come over to him one day at dinner and told him that she didn't blame him for playing for them the rest of the house had gotten over it.
However, it hadn't all been bad. He had become friends with Blaise Zabini, Theodore Nott, and Daphne Greengrass. He was also on speaking terms with all of the other Slytherins, except for Pansy Parkinson who he just ignored. Draco and him had a rocky relationship since he was still made at Harry for taking part of his inheritance, but things were getting better between them. He was still friends with all his old friends and they would meet every Wednesday to study but his time spent with them was limited.
"Are you even listening to me Harry?" Tracy asked.
"What?" he said coming out of his daze, "Oh, sorry Tracy, I've just got a lot on my mind, what were you saying?"
Tracy didn't continue what she was saying, instead she glared at him, "you know what Harry? I'm not even going to bother since obviously what ever your thinking of is more important then anything I could have to say."
"Tracy," Harry groaned, "don't be like that, please. I'm just trying to get use to all of the changes that have happened to my life over the last few weeks."
"You Harry, I wouldn't be so angry if you would just STOP lying to me."
"What? Tracy, I'm not lying to you."
"OH please Harry, do you really think I'm that stupid? That I wouldn't figure out the real reason why you've been so distracted? Hint, next time you want to keep it a secret, don't make it so obvious by only getting distracted by her when she's in the same room. Your crush is completely obvious."
Oh shit Harry thought to himself. How did she find out, I've been working so hard to hid it. Maybe if I pretend I don't know what's she's talking about she'll drop it. "What? Tracy I don't have a crush on anyone."
Daphne snorted, "please Harry, that might have worked with Gryffindors, but it won't work with us."
Blaise nodded from his place next to Daphne, "their right, it is so obvious that you like the mu... that you like Granger."
"I don't," Harry started to say before all of what Blaise had said registered and he stared at them as if they were crazy. "You think I like Hermione?" When they all nodded he stared at them for another minute before bursting out laughing. "Are you guy crazy, Me and Hermione, that would be like dating my sister. Oh god, I've got to tell her this. Oi, Hermione," he called across the hall. She turned to look at him and he beckoned he over.
"Ya Harry?" she asked when she was standing next to him, looking only slightly nervous.
"Hermione, they," he said gesturing at the Slytherins around him, "all think that I have a crush on you."
Hermione's eyes widened, "oh god please tell me you don't, you're good looking and all, but dating you would be like-"
"Dating a sibling," they finished together.
"Well, if it's not her you like then who is it Harry?" Tracy demanded.
"Oh my god, you like someone Harry? Who is it? Spill," Hermione said as she squeezed into the seat between Harry and Daphne. "No, wait a sec, Ginny," she yelled across the hall, much like Harry had done a few minutes ago.
"What Hermione?"
"Harry is totally crushing on someone!" Hermione yelled attracting the attention of everyone in the hall.
"Oh My God!" Ginny yell before rushing over to the Slytherin table and taking the seat on Harry's other side. "Spill!"
Harry stared at them, "who are you people and what have you done to my friends?"
"Oh please Harry, don't be so dramatic." Ginny said rolling her eyes.
"Ya, now spill, who is this mystery girl?"
"Does she go to Hogwarts?"
"Oh My God! She's a muggle, isn't she? That's why you never mentioned her and why you've been so down lately, you're completely in love but you will never be able to be with her. It's Romeo and Juliet all over again!"
"Oh My God, Harry you can't kill yourself, I WON'T LET YOU! I don't care how you love her, you need to live!"
"Ginny, I'm not-"
"Don't you dare lie us, Harry James Black Slytherin Potter!" Hermione said glaring at him, "you are not allowed to die and that is final, do you hear me?"
"Yes, I hear you but-"
"There is no but, you are not going to die, understand?"
"Yes but-"
"NO HARRY, I DON'T CARE HOW MUCH YOU LIKE HER, GET OVER IT!"
"IF YOU TWO WOULD SHUT UP YOU WOULD KNOW THAT I'M NOT IN LOVE WITH A MUGGLE BUT WITH PAVATI!" Harry stopped to catch his breath. He hadn't meant to yell but he hated it when people would talk about him but not let him say anything. He froze when he realized what he had just said , "I mean, uh, ok no way to save that is there?" Of course, since everyone had been listening since Ginny came over they all heard. "Thanks a lot, guys" he said sarcastically. He stood and left the silent hall.
***PAGE BREAK***
Three days latter and Harry had done an amazing job at avoiding the whole school. The only time he was seen was in classes, and even then he showed up right at the bell and was the first person out at the end. It was the middle of Care of Magically Creatures when everything changed.
"That's it!" Parvati said as she stormed over to Harry looking furious.
"Ms. Patil," Professor Grubbly-Plank said, "please try to keep your voice down and pay attention."
"I'm sorry professor, but I have to say this." She turned to Harry and started speaking, "let me tell you something Potter," she said poking him in the chest. "You do not say that you like a girl then ignore her for three days! When you say you like someone, you are suppose to ask them out, now why have you not done so?"
Harry blinked at her, "What?"
"Oh, my, god, HOW have you survived so long being this slow? You like me. I like you. That means, you, ask me, on a thing called a date. Do You Understand?"
"Wait, you like me? But, I thought, after the ball..."
"Yes I didn't like how you ignored me last year, but I am willing to put that behind me, but only if you ask me out right now."
"Um, ok, Parvati do, do you want to go out with me sometime?"
"Why, yes Harry, I would love to go out with you, thank you for asking. When do you want our date to be?" she asked smiling up at him.
"Well," he said, still in shock over the fact that she liked him, "I'm going away for the break, so, er, I could talk to the house elves and arrange a private dinner for us tonight in this room I found, if, you know, that's ok with you?"
"That sounds great Harry, I'll meet you outside of the Gryffindor at 5:30?"
"Um, ya, ya, see you then."
***PAGE BREAK***
Harry spent the rest of his classes in a daze, not bothering to listen to his teachers. Once his classes where done for the day he ran to the kitchens to ask the house elves to set up a fancy dinner in a room he had found on the seventh floor two days ago when he had been running from Hermione after charms. After he was done in the kitchens he headed to his dorm room to change, ignoring the comments thrown at him for going out with a Gryffindor. Then, at 5:20, he went to meet Parvati.
He was standing outside of the portrait for a minute before it opened and she stepped out. Harry stared at her. Her hair was in some sort of knot at the side of her head and she was wearing a royal blue dress that seemed to bring out her dark eyes and hair. "Hi Harry."
Harry shook himself out of his daze. "Hey Parvati, you look beautiful."
She blushed. "Thanks Harry, you look great too. So should we go?" she asked well holding out her hand.
He took her hand and lead her towards the room well he asked her about her family. She told him about all of the trouble her and her twin Padma caused when they were younger and was just starting to tell him about her little brother when they reached the room.
"OK, I just need to open the room."
"What room, there's nothing here," she said as she looked at the blank stretch of wall.
"Well of course you can't see it, it's a hidden magical room. Now one moment." He walked back and forth three times with his eyes closed, thinking of the perfect places for their date. He opened them when he heard Parvati gasp, and saw a door in front of him. He opened it and gestured for her to enter, "Milady."
She smiled at him before entering. She gasped as she looked around before spinning to face him. The room had taken on the appearance of a balcony over looking Italy. "Harry why are we in a room that looks like Italy?"
Harry smile softly at her, "this is the room of requirements, it turns into what ever you want. I thought that this would be nice for our evening, however if you don't like it we can change it."
"No, Harry this is fantastic." They walked over to the table that was set up for them and sat down. As soon as they were seated plates appeared in front of them.
"I wasn't sure what you like so I thought that chicken would be a good choice, but if you want something else-"
"I love chicken Harry." she assured him with a smile which he returned as they started eating, asking each other questions between bits.

AN: "I am so sorry for taking so long and for this incredible terrible chapter. I've been having huge writers block lately and I apologize if everyone or anyone hates this but I felt so bad for not updating for so long I wanted to give you guys something. Now, people, I need your opinions about how you feel about Harry/Parvati, I do have a plan for what I want to happen with this story, but if you guys have different things you want to see, THEN SEND ME A REVIEW TO TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT. And no I will not tell you what I planning so this means that everyone should be giving me a review. I have 83 reviews so far, with the number of hits I get, it's not insane to hope to make it to 100 before my next update, of course, if I reach 100, I might spend more time fighting my writers block, hint hint. But anyways, till next time peps.
