Disclaimer: Mesa no owns Harry Potter. Enjoy this story and for the first time I've taken time to make revisions so now your eyes can read!! lol!
It's been 2 months now since Cedric's death. Nothing seems real anymore to Cho. Her father has to continue working at the Ministry of Magic nonstop ever since Voldemort came back. At first when she saw Cedric and Harry reappear again that day in the Third Task for the Triwizard Tournament she didn't know what was happening. People were dragging me away from the scene. Cho heard screaming and cries for help. She was led to the Ravenclaw Common Room. Cho was kept isolated in there for an hour or so worrying for Cedric and for Harry. Her 2 best friends Samantha Grint and Paige Adams then came in tears running down their cheek
(A/N: Muh friend Casey's character is Samantha and my character is Paige so please ask before take. lol)
They didn't want to explain what they heard and saw so they took her hand and led her to the hospital wing. She remembered it so clearly even though she wished she didn't. Cho was so confused as they led her through the corridors she kept on asking them what was happening but they replied with gasps to keep in their cries. When they got to the Hospital Wing Cho saw Mr. and Mrs.Diggory. Mr.Diggory appeared to be holding Mrs.Diggory close while she was crying.
"Mrs.Diggory? W-w- what's happening here?" Cho managed to say.
Mrs.Diggory let go of Mr.Diggory and ran over to her, she hugged Cho tightly still crying harder than ever. She then looked Cho in the eye holding a handkerchief close to her mouth.
"Cho.....it's C-Cedric." she said between cries.
"What happened to Cedric? Is he gonna be alright?" she asked.
Cho looked to her friends then to Mr.Diggory whose head hung down. She looked to Madame Pomfrey
"Is he going to be alright? What happened?" Cho asked again. Madame Pomfrey looked so pale as she turned to face her. Her eyes as well were swelling up with tears.
"He's....he's gone my dear." she replied softly.
Cho felt the tears filling up my eyes. "Gone? No...he can't be. He just can't be!" she cried.
The tears ran down her cheeks she tried to hold them in but she couldn't. Madame Pomfrey then moved away a curtain and as she did Cho gasped and almost fell back. Behind the curtain was Cedric's lifeless body. He was gone...he had left her...Cho was alone.
That day still replays in her mind even as she sits here in her room just remembering everything. Cho's mother tried to console her when she heard about her loss. But her words couldn't help Cho. She was a 16-year-old witch lost, afraid, and hurt. Cho walked down the hallway of her home restless. Her eyes were red and puffy from so much crying. She was clearly depressed and everybody knew it. Cho had her best friend's Paige and Samantha stay over for a while. They couldn't say anything to her though. They felt so bad for Cho. Cho just wanted someone to talk to about this whole situation. Someone she knows who'll understand her...she didn't know who she would talk to exactly until Paige had suggested she talk to the boy who was there the day Cedric had died...Harry Potter.
~***********************************************~
It was another summer holiday at the Dursley's. Back to Harry being treated like he was dog again. He didn't really care. The Dursley's were still afraid about Sirius coming to turn them into beetles while they sleep. So they had made an agreement with him. As long as he wasn't in their way they wouldn't be in his. The days dragged on. Harry was growing restless. Any day now his best friend from Hogwarts Ron Weasley would send an owl to him saying he'd go and stay with him and his family for the remainder of the summer. The sooner the better. Since Dudley had actually come through with his diet he wasn't tubby anymore. He actually got stronger but he wasn't the only one. Harry had gotten stronger too, physical and mentally. Voldemort was back and in full power. He can now touch Harry's skin without getting burned. The wizarding world is now in deep havoc and here he is, Famous Harry Potter stuck in the Muggle World not being able to help. Worst of all he's left with so much guilt. His first and probably only love Cho Chang is heartbroken over her boyfriend Cedric Diggory. Cedric had died that day not Harry. Harry kept on thinking in his mind "I should've died not Cedric." He couldn't stand to see Cho crying that miserable day. Tears running down her delicate cheeks....the tears of an angel. Staying in his room for the rest of his life would've been perfectly fine for him. With all these thoughts in his mind he had soon drifted off to sleep.
::tap tap:: "Not now..." Harry murmured putting his head under his pillow.
::tap tap:: "Hedwig the window's open just go in." Harry groaned.
::tap tap:: Harry got up from his bed to see Hedwig secure in her cage asleep. "What the......?" he said softly.
::tap tap tap:: "Boy! That blasted tapping better stop now before I throw you out of this house!" Uncle Vernon bellowed from downstairs.
Harry sighed and turned to his window. He saw a very beautiful black owl with white streaks on its sides. He let it in and untied the letter from its leg.
"You can rest a little bit over there. Take a little bit of food have some water...you look tired." he said to the owl while stroking its back. The owl nipped Harry's finger affectionately like Hedwig usually did and went over to Hedwigs cage to rest up. Harry looked at the address and couldn't believe his eyes. It was from Cho Chang. He opened it and read the letter.
Dear Harry,
Hi...how are you? How's your summer going and how are those muggles treating you? I just wanted to tell you that you must feel as bad as I do about last year.....and I assure you that I don't blame you for anything that had happened. You shouldn't blame yourself either you know it wasn't your fault. I wanted to ask if well we could talk about it through letters and during school whenever you feel it is appropriate. Write back soon.
Yours Truly,
Cho Chang
Harry was truly amazed. In his hands was a letter from his crush Cho Chang. The girl he's loved since his 3rd year. Harry stood there for a few moments. It was as though his world just stopped. Until another owl came flying in. It had collapsed on Harry's bed and automatically he knew it was the Weasley's Family owl Errol. He put Cho's letter down and untied the letter and parcels from Errol's legs. He carried Errol over to Hedwig's cage. Hedwig didn't really seem to like him at all.
"Be nice Hedwig. He's had a rough journey." he said to her.
She gave him a stern look but hooted as though she was saying "Fine." The parcels were filled with cakes and mince pies from Mrs.Weasley and Ron's very messy handwriting appeared on a small piece of parchment.
Harry, In one of the parcels there should be a round red and silver ball. When you touch it, it should transport you to the Burrow. Just make sure you have all of your stuff near you and you're ready to go. See you in a few minutes. ~Ron
Harry was utterly confused. He collected everything in his trunk though and had Errol, Hedwig, and Cho's owl in a cage. He folded Cho's letter up and put it in his pocket. He then took out the parcel that contained exactly what Ron had described. Harry held it in his hand for a few moments. Nothing happened.
"How is this suppose to get me to the Burrow-whoa!" he exclaimed.
As soon as Harry had said the words "The Burrow" Yellow lights suddenly gleamed from the ground creating an orb around Harry and his luggage. Harry felt as though he were in a bubble. He saw everything clearly but it seemed to be moving extremely fast. It soon stopped and in front of him he saw Ron.
"Glad you could make it." he said.
"Glad to be here." he replied grinning.
"Mum! Dad! It worked! He's here!" Ron yelled.
Mrs.Weasley came running in, stirring something in a bowl. "Harry dear! Wonderful to see you!" she exclaimed.
Mrs.Weasley hugged him tightly. Harry's glasses feel to the bridge of his nose.
Mr.Weasley walked in mopping his bald spot on the top of his head with a handkerchief. "Harry! So nice to see you again." He said.
Harry grinned. Ron picked up some of Harry's stuff and started bringing it up to his room. Ginny, again once seeing Harry blushed furiously and locked her door. Ron rolled his eyes and muttered something under his breath that sort of sounded like "little sisters". When Harry had got up to Ron's room he took out the letter again.
"Ooh who's the letter from Harry?" Ron said trying to snatch it out of his hands but not succeeding.
"It's a letter from Cho." He replied.
"Are you serious?" he asked jaw dropped open.
Harry nodded.
"Well write her back mate you can't just sit here and not write a reply." He said.
"That's just it I don't know what to say." He replied.
Harry sighed hopelessly.
"I'll give you sometime to think then." Ron replied.
He got up and walked for the door. "Write her back..who knows might be the beginning of something special." He said and with that Ron walked out.
Harry took out a piece of parchment, a quill, and a bottle of ink. He started writing hoping it didn't sound so stupid.
Dear Cho,
I'm fine thanks. I've finally gotten away from the Dursley's and I'm currently staying at my best friend Ron Weasley's house. I'd be glad to talk to you about everything that you want to know. Anytime in school is fine with me. We can meet up whenever you like to. Just next time if you're going to send the same owl to the Dursley's again please have it not tap the windows. My muggle uncle almost had a fit.
Sincerely,
Harry Potter
He folded the letter up and tied it to Hedwig's leg.
"Get this to Cho, Hedwig. Have a safe journey." He said while stroking Hedwig's back as she was hooting affectionately.
She then took off into the broad day leaving Harry thinking many new thoughts and hopes.
Cho kept on thinking in her mind "Was it smart of me to have sent a letter to Harry Potter? I mean we haven't been exactly close at all..but technically he's the only person who I can talk to who will understand what I'm going through."
Her 2 best friends Paige and Samantha and herself was sitting out in Cho's balcony. Samantha was going on about her crush on Ronald Weasley. Paige was just listening on while pretending she was falling asleep when Sam wasn't looking. Cho laughed a little at this. Suddenly a beautiful snowy owl flew on a perch on her balcony.
"'Ello there" she said.
Cho untied the letter and saw that it was a reply from Harry. She read it and sighed with relief.
"Got a letter back from loverboy?" Paige said while grinning.
"What are you talking about Paige? Harry's just a friend." Cho said while blushing slightly.
"Uh huh. Yea sure." Samantha said.
"Should we really trust her Sam?" Paige said.
Samantha shook her head. "Nah." She replied laughing a little bit.
"Gee thanks you guys." Cho said sarcastically.
"Well what did he say?" Sam asked.
"He said that it's alright with him. And that we can talk about whatever I need to talk about with it." Cho replied.
"Are you going to write back?" Paige asked.
"I guess...I have no other choice." she replied.
Paige handed her a quill, some parchment, and a bottle of ink. As Cho was writing
Samantha said "Add in oh and please tell Ron that my friend Samantha said hi."
They all laughed. "Alright if you say so." she replied.
Writing to Harry was a start for her they'd get closer as friends' everyday. And that's all they'd stay friends....or so she thought.
Please R+R. It's greatly wanted. ^_^
