Chapter 3


It seemed like forever before Harry arrived at what was supposedly the Diggory's house. It was HUGE! It was about half the size of Hogwarts, if not bigger.

He walked up the steps and knocked on the front door. A small house elf opened it and let him in.

" Master is in the living room with some guests. Come on, I'll show you" The tiny house elf led him to a fairly big sized room, where Mr and Mrs. Diggory were sitting. "Master Amos, Harry Potter is here" announced the elf.

Harry walked up next to the elf and Amos nodded. "Mr. Potter, welcome. This is my wife, Ginger. Cedric's cousins are here. Oh yeah and Cho Chang's here too." He paused. "Slinky, show Mr. Potter where he will be staying and also show him to the playroom."

The elf, Slinky led Harry up the stairs to a medium sized room, where Harry dropped his bag off and they headed off to the playroom.

"Dobby told me that Harry Potter's a great wizard. Slinky didn't believe it until now." The elf told him. Harry smiled.

"Thanks, Slinky." Finally, they arrived at the playroom. It was pretty big.Many kids were sitting around, passing balls around. They wore children's robes of all colors. Harry saw Cho Chang sitting with a small boy, comforting him. Harry neared the two and sat next to the small boy.

"Hi. Wanna play?" asked one of the kids, who was throwing a ball to another kid.

"Sure." Harry joined into the small game and pretty soon the kids were laughing and having a great time. That's when Cho noticed Harry.

"Hey Harry! Why are you here?" she asked.

"I was invited" he replied, nearly getting hit in the face by a ball. "The Diggory's knew about my aunt and uncle's hatred against witches and wizards and invited me early." He explained.

"Cool." Cho gave the small boy next to her a big hug and smiled. After a few moments, Cho spoke. "I love it here. The Diggory's are so nice. They were happy to let me stay for the summer."

"You're staying for the summer? Awesome!" Harry replied.

They talked for the rest of the day about Quidditch and a bunch of other things. Before they went to bed, they both smiled at each other, both knowing they had found a friend.


When Harry awoke the next morning, he took a shower, changed into his robes and went downstairs to the kitchen. The Diggory's and a lot of kids were down there eating breakfast while Cho was pouring some cereal for the kids. Harry said hi to the kids, Cho and the Diggory's and poured his own cereal.

"So, umm Harry, how do you know Cho?" asked one of the adult guests. The lady resembled Cho a lot.

"We go to Hogwarts together. Seekers, for Ravenclaw and Gryffindor. She's a year older though." Explained Harry.

"Yeah and him and Ced were friends" Cho added. Harry smiled. 'It's gonna be fun here' he thought as everyone finished breakfast.


A/N: We'll, that's it for now. I'm starting to like this. The first chapter I hated but this one I like. How strange is that? Probaly not that strange.

I've got a lot of reviews already. Thanks! I need to know 2 things: Should I continue this to Cedric's funeral like I origanly planned or should I turn it to more romance. I have a lot of the story worked out but which one should I do? H/G or H/C or go wild and make someone up? There will be a little R/H, but want to focus on Harry. What do you guys think?

Disclaimer: I own Cho's Mom, the plot and my imagination. I think that's all. Oh yeah and Mrs. Diggory's name (Ginger) and Cedric's cousins.
