Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter. This is the last chapter. I will make a sequel if it's wanted so please tell me in the reviews. Reviews most appreciated.
Everything stayed silent that night. Paige and Samantha had gone up to the Girl's Dormitory after hearing a loud thump. Harry tried to find out what had happened. Every once in a while Samantha would go down to the Prefect's Bathroom with rags just to moisten them up.
"What happened?" Harry asked.
"Cho's fainted…but please don't worry about it." Samantha said quickly.
"Wait… Cho's fainted?" he said
Samantha looked at him almost dropping the rags. She quivered a little but than she just walked up again. Before closing the door to the Girl's Dormitory she left him with one last comment.
"Cho's still in an emotional status. But please she doesn't want you to worry about her. When she's ready to talk to you than you'll see her."
Ever since that comment and night, Harry didn't see Cho anywhere in sight. She never came into the Great Hall. She never was seen in the common room. Whenever he asked Paige or Samantha about her, they never gave him an answer. But instead they would exchange looks of worries. When Harry wasn't asking about Cho though, he was with The Weasley's. During this time it would be especially hard for them. Mrs. Weasley whenever seen always had tears running down her face. Fred and George were always seen with frowns on their faces. They had never pulled a prank on anybody for days. Nobody has questioned them though. And Ron, as Harry and everybody else hated to see, was in deep distress. No one left his side. And they did his best to comfort him. But nobody knew they couldn't get Ginny back. She truly was gone.
Planning the funeral would be the hardest part. It was already planned that the ceremony would be held in a plain right outside of Hogsmeade. It would truly be the hugest ceremony since Cedric's own funeral. With all the student's coming in from Hogwarts and Ginny's family it would be packed. The people who were to speak on her behalf no one knew about. But through all of what everybody had said they all knew Dumbledore would be speaking. The second speaker was never revealed.
"Are you going to be alright?" Harry asked nervously while he and Ron walked back to the common room one day.
"I guess so…I don't know. It's definitely going to take some time to get over." Ron replied.
Harry nodded and there was an awkward silence as they continued to walk.
"Have you spoken to Cho yet?" Ron asked to break the silence.
Harry's stomach lurched suddenly when Ron had mentioned Cho. He hadn't seen her for days and every night he would miss her as just as he did when she was unconscious in the Hospital Wing.
"I'd feel guilty if I just went to see her and leave you with your distress." Harry said
"Wait a minute. You haven't seen Cho because of me?" Ron asked.
"Well… also because Samantha and Paige. They say she's not ready to-" he began to say.
But just as he and Ron entered the common room, Samantha and Paige literally pushed Harry back out. Causing him to almost fall over.
"You have to talk to Cho. It's seriously breaking our hearts to see you guys not talking." Paige said as she dragged him out with Sam.
"Cho hasn't smiled for days. We haven't seen the love spark between you two for a long time. It's starting to sadden me." Samantha said.
Harry's mind was spinning. He was getting confused but he couldn't miss his chance to talk to Cho.
"Wait a minute. I can just go and talk to her now?" Harry asked.
"Yes!" Samantha and Paige exclaimed.
"Well where is-" he began to say.
But Harry suddenly caught a glimpse of Cho right outside on the Grounds. She was sitting under the shade of one of the trees right near the river. He looked out to her and his stomach lurched again.
"Go see her mate. You two need the closure. Love each other again." Ron said.
"Harry please go and see her. We don't want you guys to end your relationship." Samantha said.
Harry sighed and thought for a few moments. He hasn't seen Cho for a couple of days. With Samantha and Paige's words, he clearly knew Cho had been depressed for a while. Hearing that she hasn't smiled for days just made him feel so empty. He knew he had to speak with her but he felt guilty since he'd be leaving Ron with his pain. Somehow though Ron did interpret what he was thinking.
"Go on. I'll be fine for a while. Don't worry about me." Ron said/
"Are you sure you'll be ok?" Harry asked.
"Yes, yes just go and get your girl back! Snog her again in front of us!" Ron said sarcastically.
They all laughed but Harry couldn't help but turn a dark shade of red.
"Ok, I guess maybe later Cho and I will meet up with you guys for dinner." He said.
"That would be brilliant. Go on Harry." Samantha said.
"Wait, before you leave…I think you should return something to her." Paige said quietly.
Harry and Ron exchanged looks of confusion. He looked at Samantha and he could see her expression changed abruptly. Paige looked at her uneasily and she bit her lower lip. She trailed her hand to her bag and finally she got a hold of it. She sighed and she handed it to Harry.
"Here, I think you should get this back to Cho." She said.
Harry's heart suddenly stopped. In his hand was the promise ring he had given her on Valentine's day. He grasped it and put it in his robes.
"Don't take it personally. We just found it lying on her dresser…" Paige said.
Harry took one last glance at them all. With that he waved goodbye and started to head outside to have a little talk with Cho.
~~~~Outside~~~~~
Cho sat outside with her knees close to her body. Her eyes again were red and puffy from crying so much. She felt as though her world had come crashing down once again. Another death had come into her life and she couldn't take it. Cho felt as though she had lost everything including Harry's love. That was one of the reasons why she had taken off the promise ring. She remembered on what Harry had said about the ring. The ring once belonged to his own mother. Cho felt she wasn't good enough for such an honor. Ginny's death had affected her deeply. Cho was in a state of depression.
She got up from where she was sitting and walked over to the lake. She sat down and looked at her own miserable reflection, as the tears still flowed down freely. She bit her lower lip to try to keep the tears in but it didn't work. She felt so weak at this state. She knew it would be stupid for her to just continue to cry but she couldn't help herself. She wanted to be left alone for as long as it would be possible. Thoughts filled her mind and pain quickly rushed through. She pulled her hair back and the tears flowed down again. A figure showed up right in front of her. She didn't look up. She didn't say word. All she did was try to conceal her tears.
"You can't hide your tears from me love. But please don't cry." A familiar voice said.
Cho still didn't look up because she knew exactly whom the voice belonged to. It was Harry. She felt so ashamed that she was crying in front of him. She didn't want him to see her so distressed. Little did she know it was hurting him as much as she thought.
"Please talk to me Cho. Don't leave me out of your world. Let me hear your voice again. Let me see your loving smile. Let me see you happy Cho. Seeing you distressed only brings me down." Harry said quietly.
"I don't want to look like a fool to you. I never wanted you to see me like this…" Cho cried softly.
"I could never think less of you Cho. I love you and nothing will ever change that." He said.
Cho bit her lower lip again and fresh new tears formed. She let out a soft cry as she closed her eyes. Cho was in depression and she knew it. She didn't want Harry to go through her pain. She felt terrible
"I'm a horrible person. I don't deserve your kindness. Ginny's death is my fault. I should have died. I should have protected her with any risk." Cho cried again.
"No, no you know that's not true. It's not something you could've avoided. It's nothing anybody could've avoided." Harry said.
"But than why do I feel so guilty? Voldemort should've taken me not Ginny." Cho cried.
Harry sighed. He didn't want Cho to cry. He didn't want Cho to cry. He didn't want to see her so hurt. He took her hand in his and led her up.
"Come with me. I need to tell you something/" Harry said.
Cho just nodded as she looked down at the ground, extremely guilty and ashamed. Harry led her to a small little bench over in the grounds. He sat her down and he knelt on his knees still holding on to her hands.
"I want to tell you a little story of mine." He said.
"Go on Harry. I'm listening." Cho said softly.
Harry took a deep breath, hoping what he was about to say would help. And he hoped they would finally look at each other eye to eye. Cho still had a frown on her face, tears falling, and she was looking down at the ground waiting to hear what he had to say.
"There was this girl that I met in my third year. By far I knew she was the most beautiful person I had ever seen in my life. This girl had everything. She was beautiful, intelligent, and she was an excellent seeker for the Ravenclaw team." He said.
Harry paused for a moment. For a split second he could've sworn he saw a tiny smile on her face. He continued on.
"And I fell for this girl instantly. She was amazing. I always acted like a fool in front of her especially when I tried to impress her. I wanted this girl to be mine. But I couldn't have her because she was already taken." Harry said again.
Tears continued to fall from Cho's eyes. But she nodded gesturing him to continue.
"It broke my heart when I knew she was taken by somebody. It hurt more when I knew that it was somebody I had known. Every ounce of jealousy was running through my veins. But everytime I saw her, she always had a sweet and loving smile on her face. I knew she was happy and that's all I wanted for her. Just to be happy." He said
Cho had a little strain. Harry couldn't tell whether she was crying again or taking a breath. They were still holding on to each other's hands very tightly. Harry picked Cho's hand up every once in a while and kissed her hand trying to bring comfort to her. While her other hand was placed right over her heart. Harry ran his fingers up and down Cho's hand. He wanted to calm her down. He continued on with his story.
"Everyday as weeks and months went by she was always seen with him. Until one day as he and I competed against each other in a tournament, we went for a trophy to bring glory to the school. But as he and I grasped for a handle it turned out to be a trap. That trap led us right to Voldemort's lair. After a few moments as we grazed around trying to watch out for danger, I-I-I saw him fall to the ground dead." Harry said softly.
Cho grasped onto his hand a little tighter. She was mouthing the words 'it wasn't your fault.' Over and over again. And for the first time through their conversation, Cho had finally made eye contact with Harry. He could see the pain in her eyes as the tears gleamed brightly.
"As hurt as I was I knew I had to bring his body back to bring his honor to the school. So I risked my life to get his body back. That day I thought I was going to die but I didn't. But I felt I should've died. And now to this day I still have tiny bruises and scars to remind me about that horrible day." He said.
Harry pulled his shoulder sleeve down and Cho saw what seemed to be a bruised on his shoulder with a straight-lined scar. He covered it up again and now Harry and Cho were looking deep into each other's eyes. He knew he had to continue.
"That day when I went into the Great Hall, I saw a lot of people distressed and crying. I had so much guilt in me. I felt that I could've just saved that boy and he'd still be alive right now. That feeling stayed with me. As I glanced over looking at that girl, I could see she was completely heartbroken. I couldn't stand seeing the tears in her eyes. And I always felt so guilty about that boy's death. But when I got to talk with this girl, she assured me it wasn't my fault. She assured me that I didn't have to feel guilty. And she assured me that we'd have a lasting friendship." He said quietly.
Cho smiled slightly and she pushed her hair away from her eyes. She wiped the tears away and her smile began to broaden even more.
"I'm glad that girl chose to have a lasting friendship with you." She said softly.
"And once we got to get to know each other we become more than friends. Everyday we got closer. Everyday she always assured me nothing was my fault. We found our closure. And to this day I am honored to be loving the girl who is right in front of me." Harry said.
Cho smiled and in her hear she was overwhelmed with love and happiness. Harry smiled and touched her face. Cho laughed slightly. She than threw her arms around Harry. She hugged him and he hugged her back. They embraced for a while. Both seemed like they never wanted to let go.
"I love you Harry Potter. I love you with all of my heart." Cho said.
"I love you too Cho. And I know I always will." Harry said.
Harry got up and led Cho up as well. They walked hand in hand back to the entrance of the castle. They both stopped and faced each other again. Harry took the promise ring out of his robes.
"I think I should get this back to you. That is if you still want to wear it…"Harry said
Cho looked at the ring and took it. She scanned it for a brief moment and than she slipped it back onto her finger.
"I won't even think about taking this ring off of my finger." Cho said.
They both smiled and within a few seconds they got closer and than they shared a loving kiss for the first time in weeks.
With Harry and Cho's relationship renewed all somehow seemed to get slightly better. Of course Samantha and Paige were overwhelmed when Harry and Cho entered the Great Hall hand in hand. And to their surprise it brought a small smile to Ron's face. A week after though Ginny's funeral came by. The students of Hogwarts walked up to the plains. Music was sounded through. Doves were flying up to the sky to bring peace. The ceremony was truly beautiful. Cho was asked to read the inscription on Ginny's funeral for everybody to hear. As she walked up Harry stood by her side still holding on to her hand. She took a deep breath and she looked around to all of the mourners and she could feel the tears running down.
"Here lies an angel of pure heart,
The youngest and sweetest soul to have left Earth,
A sister,
A daughter,
A true friend,
Rest in Peace Dearest Virginia Weasley." Cho said.
Near the gravestone were bouquets of flowers and lit candles. As Cho and Harry sat down again they listened to Dumbledore's speech. Everybody at the ceremony was tied on to his words. The second person that was to speak turned down last minute. It was still a mystery on who the person was. But with everything else it didn't even matter. Near the end as the ceremony came to an end, Cho approached Ginny's burial ground with two roses in her hand. A black veil cover her face but she soon flipped it up. She ran her fingers over the gravestone and she rested the roses on the top.
"Rest in peace dear friend." She said softly.
Holding back her tears, Cho walked over to Paige, Samantha, Harry, and Ron. She placed her hand on Ron's shoulder. He rested his hand on hers. They knew things would be different.
"Everything will be hard at first…but I know we'll get through this." She said softly.
Ron smiled slightly. He took her hand and kissed it.
"Thank you, that really does mean so much to me." Ron said.
For the last week that everybody had at Hogwarts, everyone just contemplated on what they would do once they got out of Hogwarts. That was also the week where Harry found out that Cho had to retake her sixth year again.
"It's not that I was stupid or anything. It's just I was unconscious for most of the time so I have to retake it. I haven't learned enough." Cho said.
"That means we will get to graduate together Cho!" Samantha and Paige exclaimed.
"Exactly and I'm glad for that." Cho said while smiling.
Harry gave her a hug; he was thrilled that he would get to spend the rest of his Hogwarts years with Cho. The last day they would ever have at Hogwarts until after Summer Vacation quickly came. Cho spent her last few hours at Hogwarts sitting over by a beautiful willow tree. She rested upon it for a while thinking about all the things that had happened to her. But the one thing that remained in her mind and heart was Harry. She took a look at the promise ring as the diamonds gleamed. Harry than came by, he apparently stood over somewhere watching her. He smiled just by admiring Cho's beauty.
"Have I told you how honored I am to be with you?" He said as he walked over to her and got her in his arms.
Cho laughed a little bit. "Only about a million times. But at this point, I can only hope we'll last forever." She said.
"We will Cho. Trust me, we will." Harry said.
Harry and Cho sat there watching the sun set. With that it gave them a stronger bond. And they both hoped for the best for years to come in their life together.
The End.
Ok Sequel is in line; Chapter 1 for the sequel is in the works. This is the last chapter for this story though guys. But um remember reviews still greatly appreciated and I'll see you in a couple of days or maybe weeks…lol when the sequel comes out. Title isn't decided yet but it'll come in time.
Everything stayed silent that night. Paige and Samantha had gone up to the Girl's Dormitory after hearing a loud thump. Harry tried to find out what had happened. Every once in a while Samantha would go down to the Prefect's Bathroom with rags just to moisten them up.
"What happened?" Harry asked.
"Cho's fainted…but please don't worry about it." Samantha said quickly.
"Wait… Cho's fainted?" he said
Samantha looked at him almost dropping the rags. She quivered a little but than she just walked up again. Before closing the door to the Girl's Dormitory she left him with one last comment.
"Cho's still in an emotional status. But please she doesn't want you to worry about her. When she's ready to talk to you than you'll see her."
Ever since that comment and night, Harry didn't see Cho anywhere in sight. She never came into the Great Hall. She never was seen in the common room.

For the last week that everybody had at Hogwarts, everyone just contemplated on what they would do once they got out of Hogwarts. That was also the week where Harry found out that Cho had to retake her sixth year again.
"It's not that I was stupid or anything. It's just I was unconscious for most of the time so I have to retake it. I haven't learned enough." Cho said.
"That means we will get to graduate together Cho!" Samantha and Paige exclaimed.
"Exactly and I'm glad for that." Cho said while smiling.
Harry gave her a hug; he was thrilled that he would get to spend the rest of his Hogwarts years with Cho. The last day they would ever have at Hogwarts until after Summer Vacation quickly came. Cho spent her last few hours at Hogwarts sitting over by a beautiful willow tree. She rested upon it for a while thinking about all the things that had happened to her. But the one thing that remained in her mind and heart was Harry. She took a look at the promise ring as the diamonds gleamed. Harry than came by, he apparently stood over somewhere watching her. He smiled just by admiring Cho's beauty.
"Have I told you how honored I am to be with you?" He said as he walked over to her and got her in his arms.
Cho laughed a little bit. "Only about a million times. But at this point, I can only hope we'll last forever." She said.
"We will Cho. Trust me, we will." Harry said.
Harry and Cho sat there watching the sun set. With that it gave them a stronger bond. And they both hoped for the best for years to come in their life together.
The End.
