A/N-The song that Harry sings is Dreaming of You written (I think) by Franne Gold and Tom Snow, performed by Selena. I dont claim that as mine either. Also, the spacing is all screwed up, I dont know why. So sorry for it looking so weird right now. Ok, this chapter is really weird...I think I was crazy when I wrote it...not my best chapter ever...
Chapter 6-Harry's Gift
Harry was getting ready for the date at Hogsmeade. He wanted to look great for Cho. Despite all he could, his hair just wouldnt stay flat. Just then, Ron came running into the room.
"Come on Harry! Aren't you dont yet?" he said a little irrated.
"Almost...just hold on a second..." Harry said, still trying to keep his down.
"Harry, you said that a half hour ago! Oh, by the way, its hopeless if you're trying to keep your hair down, mate."
Harry gave up with his hair and finally said, "Ok, I'm coming down."
When he got down to the Common Room Hermione said, "Harry, you look great! So can we hear the song now?"
"Er...ok...just-dont make fun of me ok? I know i cant sing," Harry said a little hesitently, "It's about how I felt before we stared going out...
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I wish on a star that somewhere you are
Thinking of me too..."
He sang the rest of the song for them, a little embaressed to be saying all of it in front of his friends.
When he was finished, Ron and Hermione were speechless.
"Harry, that was...wow! That was excellent!" Hermione finally managed to say. And she really ment it. It had so much emotion put into it.
"She's right Harry I'm really impressed" Ron said, "I didnt even know you could sing mate! That was great!"
"Thanks you guys...was it really that good?" Harry said humbley.
"Cho will love it! I know she will," Hermione said, "We'd better get going, everyone's going into Hogsmeade soon. Harry, you still have to get Cho."
"Alright, I'll probabaly see you guys in Hogsmeade. If not, I'll tell you all about it later!"
"See you Harry!" they both said as he started to leave, "Good luck!"
"Thanks! Bye," he said when he got to the portrait. Then he hurried to the Great Hall where he was meeting Cho.
When he got to the Great Hall, Cho was already there. She looks beautiful! Harry thought as a dreamy look spread across his face. "Hi Cho!" he said finally.
She turned around at the sound of his voice, "Hello Harry! Are you ready to go?"
"Actually, I have something for you-"
"Oh Harry, you shouldn't have!"
"Well...I cant show you here...lets go out by the lake," he said. He didnt want anyone else to hear him sing his song to Cho.
"Ok..." Cho said, not knowing what to expect.
So they walked out to the lake, where just the year before, Cedric, Harry, Viktor and Fleur had swam in to find someone that ment a lot to them. It was hard to believe it had already been a year. It didnt seem that long ago. Not that long ago, Cedric had still been alive. Today it would've been Cedric and Cho...if only...I shouldn't think like that! This day is about me and Cho, not the past, Harry thought as they sat down in the dewey grass.
"So what did you want to show me Harry?" Cho said, taking Harry away from his thoughts.
"I...I wrote a song for you Cho...just...please dont laugh. I know I cant sing..."
"Harry I would never laugh. Its so sweet that you would write a song for me! I'm sure you dont sound as bad as you hink. Just let me hear it," Cho said, anxious to hear the song.
"Ok," Harry said, "Its called Dreaming of You. Its about how I felt before we went out."
Cho nodded her head. Harry cleared his thoat nervously.
"Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I wish on a star that somewhere you are
Thinking of me too
Cause I'm dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room dreaming about you and me
Wonder if you ever see me
And I wonder if you know I'm there
If you looked in my eyes
Would you see what's inside
Would you even care?
I just wanna hold you close
But so far all I have a dreams of you
So I wait for the day
And the courage to say how much I love you
Yes I do!
I'll be dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room dreaming about you and me
Corazón
I can't stop dreaming of you
No puedo dejar de pensar en ti
I can't stop dreaming
Cómo te necesito
I can't stop dreaming of you
Mi amor, cómo te extraño
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I still can't believe
That you came up to me and said "I love you"
I love you too!
Now I'm dreaming with you tonight
Till tomorrow and for all of my life
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room dreaming of you endlessly
Dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room
I'll be dreaming of you tonight
Endlessly
And I'll be holding you tight
Dreaming...with you...tonight!"
(Yeah, you didnt know that Harry knew Spanish did you? He's quite fluent in Spanish if you wanted to know. For some strange reason, Harry's voice sounded oddly like Clay Aiken...just to give you an idea of how he sounded-fantastic by the way.)
Cho's reaction was just like Hermione and Ron's had been.
"Harry, that was beautiful! I didnt know you knew any Spanish! I didnt know that you could sing like that either! You have an amazing gift!"
Harry started blushing, "Was it really that good?"
"It was better! Words cant even come close to describing it! I love it Harry!" Cho said.
"Thank you Cho," Harry said. Then Cho leaned over and kissed him. He started running his hands through her hair as she wrapped her arms around his neck. They started making out right there on the grounds by the lake. It was Harry this time that pulled away.
"Dont you think we should go into Hogsmeade now? Everyone will already be there."
"Oh yeah...I almost forgot," Cho said, chuckling, "Lets go."
They got up and Harry tried fixing his hair again.
"Harry, I like it when its messy," Cho said.
Harry started running his hand through his hair trying to make it messier. "Better now?"
"Much better," Cho said smiling.
