Thursday, Summer 1
The sun was just coming up when Harry woke up today, it was the first of Summer- his first summer here- as he would soon realize. He mumbled as he slowly got up, feeling rather sleepy this morning.
"Thursday," He muttered,"Thirty- thirt-" He cut himself off and opened his eyes,"No, the first of Summer." He took a good look outside, and at the sight of the sunlight he suddenly felt more energetic.
He pet Hedwig happily on his was out the door, and headed for his chicken coop.
Dai was her usual self, and Mika, Tao, and Crinkl were beginning to lose their down. Harry quickly checked their water and feed, collected the egg and was off once more. Now he did not know exactly what he wanted to do on his first day of Summer. He could go through the mountains, that was a good idea. He had been wanting to visit the Goddess Lake ever since Dobby had said something about the offering. He was just happy to leave the yard before the carpenters got around to work more on his house. It was really coming along.
Harry found himself in a clearing where he had not been before, there was a bridge going over a little stream that ended in a pool of clear water. Harry walked over to the bridge and looked down into the barely pond sized pool of water. "Maybe Hermione meant 'Pond' when she said where the goddess supposedly lives." He thought outloud.
"Now what do you offer to a goddess?" Harry asked himelf, shaking off the ideas of sacrafices- not liking that idea much. Then he noticed the Moondrop flowers near the pond and thought about it,'She is the Goddess of Spring, maybe flowers would be good.'
So he went stepped off the bridge and gathered some flowers up, then wondering about how to offer them. He went back to the bridge and looked down into the water. "Worth a try," He mumbled, and tosses the flowers into the pool.
Nothing happened for a moment, and the flowers just floated there. But then, the water turned a sort of silvery color, and the Goddess of Spring floated up from the water,looking a bit taken aback. She emerged entirely from the water before sitting on air, looking down at Harry. She had grasped one of the flowers he had offered on her way up, and was holding it in one of her hands.
Her green hair was dry, despite her dwelling in water. It was pulled back into two buns, with a braid hanging from the left bun, and a flower tucked behind the right. But the things the picture did not show correctly were her silvery eyes, and the crystal drop earrings she had. Her robes swept far below her, skimming the water- looking much more elegant than the robe in Parvati's book.
Her cherry lips curved to a smile,"An offering? I've few of those in a long time. It's nice you are a Religious person," her voice was soft but clear.
"Wow." Harry said under his breath, staring at the person before him. She simply beamed at him.
"You may have one wish, you can chose between love, weather and strength." She continued,"As a thank you for the flowers." She held up the flower she had grasped in her hand.
"Wha-?" Harry questioned, slowly gathering his wits. "Oh."
She smiled,"Unless you would prefer to ask a question."
"Just one?"
"No, perhaps not. Ask what you wish," She smiled.
"Does everyone in the Village know you are real?" Harry asked the first thing he thought of.
The Goddess shook her head gently, her earrings making a soft sound of bells,"Some suspect I am, others do not try to find out."
"Can you tell the future?"
"The art of Divination is not a strong point for everyone," The Goddess smiled, he knew she meant him atleast. "I am not gifted with that ability."
Harry went on for about an hour asking trivial questions, it seemed Hermione had been right that Dumbledore knew she exsisted. But Harry was surprised when he found out that both Cho and Cedric had seen her before, and another strange figure in a dark cloak the Goddess herself could not identify. Harry was left with alot to think about from that, the shadowy figure must exsist if it had been spotted by the goddess- or spotted her. And when had Cho seen her?
"There are fireworks are tonight," The Goddess has said as parting words,"Invite a girl to watch them with you."
Harry, on his walk home, of course thought about who to ask to watch the fireworks with him. The obvious entered his mind;Cho. He'd just have to find her, of course. So he walked along back through the mountains, thinking about how to ask Cho. Nearly forgetting he had just seen the Goddess, and that both Hermione and May would be interested in hearing about it.
Harry quickly found hismelf at the Florist, and it was opened as the time was well passed nine. Before going in, Harry checked around the shop to make sure Cho wasn't outside watering plants or what not. When he entered the store, a bell sounded to announce his enterance. He saw Cho and her mother standing by the shelves, putting some red and yellow bags onto it, and pouring seeds into two big containers.
Cho turned around at the chime of the bell, and smiled when she saw Harry there,"Hello."
"Hey," Harry replied, walking over to her. Cho's mother smiled at them. Harry blushed a bit under the gaze of Cho and her mother, unable to ask the question infront with both sets of eyes on him.
Cho glanced at her mother, who glanced back and got the idea. She smiled again at them then backed away- going back over to the counter. Cho looked back at Harry,"How are you?"
"I'm ok," Harry nodded,"Er, there are fireworks tonight- right?"
Cho blushed a bit, and nodded hopefully.
"Want to watch them with me?" Harry went to look down but managed to keep his head up.
Cho beamed,"Sure. Where do you want to watch them from?"
"Er," Harry thought,"Where are they visible?"
"Almost anywhere."
"How about by the Goddess Lake?" Harry suggested, suddenly remembering she had seen the goddess as well.
Cho looked a bit surprised but nodded.
After that, Harry left the Florist, promising to meet Cho at the lake around 10 at night, when it got dark. But since he had reminded himself of the lake, he was heading to the library to tell Hermione about what he seen; Parvati too, if she was there.
No sooner had Harry thought that, he was passing the church and out came Parvati, followed by two little boys. Harry almost fell over the biggest of the three, who looked to be about two years older than the others. The smallest boy had mousy hair that reminded Harry of Colin, and the other boy had sandy colored hair.
"Hiya Harry!" Parvati squealed when she saw him.
"Hello Parvati," Harry smiled,"Who are these two?"
"They're my friends!" Parvati beamed, and then elbowed the mousy haired boy who stood beside her, gazing up at Harry silently.
"I'm Dennis!" He squeaked,"My brother told me about you! He said he crashed into you in the rain."
'That explains it,' Harry thought, then smiled and nodded. He turned his gaze to the next boy.
"I'm Seamus." He said.
Parvati turned to Seamus,"I'm going to the library, want to come?"
Seamus shook his head, and Dennis did the same when Parvati turned on him.
"That's where I'm heading, Parvati. I'll go with you." Harry smiled.
"Ok." She smiled at Harry before glaring at the boys.
When they arrived at the library, Harry saw Ron standing by the desk talking quietly to Hermione. Harry watched for a second, then grinned and went over to Parvati's usual table- where Parvati had skipped over to. Parvati had her coloring book already set up and was scribbling almost carefully. Harry sat down.
"You know what, Parvati?" Harry said, deciding to tell her while he waited for Hermione and Ron.
"What?" She asked without looking up.
"I saw the Goddess." Harry said, grinning.
Parvati dropped her crayon and looked up, her mouth wide open. Just when she looked ready to say something Ron came thumping over,"Harry!"
Harry looked over his shoulder at Ron, who was wearing dark crimson colored robes. "Hey."
Hermione came over to the rest of them, she too was about to say something but stopped when she saw Parvati looking at Harry in awe. She tilted her head and looked at Harry,"What did you do to her?"
Harry shook his head,"I was just talking to her."
"What did y-"
Parvati squealed, cutting off Hermione,"Was she pretty?!"
"Prettier than in your book." Harry said grinning at the inquisitive looks on both of his friends.
Parvati was almost out of her chair, Hermione looked from Parvati to Harry- she could guess what they were talking about. Ron was his clueless self, on the other hand,"Who?"
"The Goddess of Spring, Ron." Harry said.
"What about her?"
"You saw her, Harry?!" Hermione asked suddenly.
"Yeah," Harry nodded.
"Oh, my!" Hermione suddenly looked disappointed,"Why didn't you wait to go with me? I wanted to.."
"I'm sorry," Harry apologized,"I know you wanted to go, but I didn't want to wait."
Hermione shook her head, and muttered something about men under her breath.
"Sooo," Ron interupted,"She's real?"
"Yeah."
"And she's better looking than in the books?"
Both Harry and Hermione groaned.
Harry then went into what details the book had left out, like her earrings and eyes. And then he told them about what she had told him, and almost left out that Cho, Cedric and Dumbledore knowing about her exsistance. Then, pausing to think about it, he told them she had been seen by someone wearing a dark cloak, whom even she did not recognize.
"Could it be the same person you saw,Harry?" Hermione questioned.
"Could be." Harry shrugged. Ron simply nodded, but looked thoughtful.
"And before I left she told me about the fireworks tonight," Harry said, going back to the subject,"She told me to invite a girl to watch them with me."
Both Ron and Hermione looked up at Harry, Hermione looked somewhat expectant. Then Ron looekd at Hermione.
"Er,"Ron paused for a moment,"Speaking of which.."
Both Harry and Hermione looked at Ron.
"Want to watch them with me, 'Mione?" Ron asked sheepishly.
Hermione looked at Ron for a moment. She glanced at Harry for just a second, but turned back to Ron and nodded,"Alright."
It was now 9:55, and Harry had 5 minutes to get to the Goddess Lake to watch the fireworks with Cho. And he was almost there, so he had no reason to worry. When he arrived, Harry saw Cho sitting on the stump near the lake, she wore a dark skyblue robe and her eyes shone at him.
Harry walked over and sat beside her on the stump, and smiled at her. Cho smiled back. Neither of them said anything, Cho rested her head on Harry's shoulder when the fireworks started. Neither of them moved as they watched the colorful sparks explode through the air.
Friday, Summer 2
Harry woke feeling happy this morning, the fireworks had been lovely and he had an excuse to go visit Cho; she was great help with planning the crops for the rest of the season. And since he did not get his chance yesterday, he still had to get everything. Hedwig hooted from the sunlight in the windowsill, one of the times she was actually up in the morning.
First stop was the chicken coop, as usual. Dai was happy as ever, as were Mika, Tao and Crinkl. Harry put some feed into their bowl, and refilled their water. Picking up Dai's egg for today, he walked over to the incubator.
"Soon," he muttered to himself, turning the egg gently.
With the chickens taken care of, there was nothing else to do until he got seeds to plant. So, he started to walk to the village, knowing full well that it was only 8 o'clock, and it was an hour before the Florist's opened. But he could entertain himself for awhile.
As he walked along the path in the village, he looked over at the Bakery. The lights were on, and it was evident they were preparing for the day's business. Harry decided, unless he was really busy, he'd stop in to talk to them. Then he turned to look at the Florist, and to his surprise Cho was standing near the front graden bed, just behind the short fence of lattice,looking right at him.
"Good morning," She said brightly and stepped over the lattice, her blue robes just sweeping over it.
"Morning," Harry replied, taking a step over to her.
"You're out early."
"I- I came to see you about crops for the summer."
"But we don't open until 9," Cho smiled.
"I know that," Harry said slowly,"I was going to wait."
"Oh," Cho beamed at him.
Cho, of course, let Harry in before the store opened. She pulled up two stools and got out the price book, and brought over some bags of seeds.
"This seasons crops are tomatoes and corn," She explained, opening the booklet of prices,"they both grow back after you pick them, but they take awhile." She got quiet and read off the prices.
Harry read over the prices too,"What about some of both?"
"I think that'd be a good idea," Cho nodded,"But not so much that you tire out working in the feild."
Harry nodded and dug through his bag,"Let's see, I'll buy 2 bags of each."
Cho went with Harry back to his farm, and the talked about where he should place the corn and tomato patches. They decided on a pretty good spot that wouldn't be too far away from the shipping crate and where the soil was best.
Harry, not wanting to work while she was here, decided to show her the chickens. He had no idea how she reacted around animals, but she couldn't hate bugs that much since she worked in a florist and liked flowers.
Dai was looking rather lazy as she sat there, dozing off. Mika, Tao and Crinkl on the other hand skipped and scrambled around joyfully. "Oh!!" Cho gasped in a girly manner, looking at the little chicks,as it's hard to say someone would not think they are cute,"They are so cute!"
Harry beamed as the three chicks hopped onto her shoes and the hems of her robes, peeping happily. Cho leaned down and picked up Tao, though it's hard to say which chick is which really.
Dai, as the mother chicken, found this to be a problem. She hopped up from her near nap and went towards Cho, clucking. Cho gasped and jumped back, dropping Tao- both actions a mistake. Cho nearly jumped back onto one of the two other chicks, and Dai was none too happy about the other dropping.
Harry gasped, and using his awesome seeker reflexes managed to catch Tao- who was panicing now too, so he set her down.
Dai was at the point of flapping furiously and scratching and pecking the bottom of Cho's robes. Harry immediatly grabs her and stepped back from Cho, who looked rather shocked. Harry nodded to the door; Cho understood and,careful not to step on a chick, left the coop. Harry set Dai back down, who promptly flapped her wings indignantly. All three chicks were unharmed, but alittle wound up.
Cho stood outside the chicken coop, her back to the wall, looking rather unhappy when Harry walked out.
"I'm sorry!" Cho cried, sounding truly apologetic.
"It's alright," Harry blinked, shrugging it off,"I didn't know Dai would react like that. She hasn't attacked me or Ginny before."
Cho's expression flashed from a melancholy look to furious,"What are you suggesting?"
Harry blinked, startled by the question,"Uh.."
"Well?" Cho still looked furious.
Harry just start, utterly perplexed. 'Why did mentioning me and Ginny not getting attacked make her so mad?' he thought to himself.
Cho shook her head, and stormed off.
