* A/N: Hello and welcome to my first ever fanfic! Some
things you will find to be quite confusing, so let me give you my "guide":
Hold it, = Harry's thoughts
"FURNUNCULUS!" = Spells, Charms, etc.
"Daily Prophet" = Titles of books, newspaper, labels, etc.
"Finally," = Words to be stressed/emphasized
Well, I hope that you will enjoy my
story, so go on and read! Have fun (please!)*
Chapter 1: The Reunion of a Lifetime
It has been a long while since Harry Potter has seen the beautiful
Cho Chang. He has been in love with her for ages, and still misses her warm
smile. Ever since the day he left Hogwarts, and started his career as an all
out team member of the British Quidditch Team, the Chudley Cannons, his games
have been quite off track lately, for he was constantly thinking of a long lost
love who surprisingly had not the faintest inkling that he longed to hold her
hand; and to hopefully do more than just that.
But today Harry is in
for a surprise. As he finished showering for the next Quidditch practice, put
on his Quidditch robes, and headed onto the field, Hedwig swooped from the
heavens above with a letter. As soon as the Snowy White Owl landed on Harry's
shoulder, he took the letter, which smelled like cherry blossoms on a spring
day. To his surprise it was a letter from Hermione. She wrote:
Dear Harry,
How are you?
Guess who I ran into while I was on my way to the Daily Prophet? Cho Chang! She
works in the Ministry of Magic as the Head of the Regulation and Control of
Magical Creatures Department. She also told me to tell you hi and I invited her
to my dinner party/ reunion party, which is tomorrow. Maybe you should come
too. This is your chance to actually talk to her. Well, I'll see you later!
Your friend,
Hermione
P.S. If it doesn't
work out with Cho, I'm still available, (hint, hint). Also, Ron, Parvati,
Lavender, and (surprisingly) Malfoy will be there.
"That Hermione," Harry said to
himself, "She just doesn't know."
Hold it, he thought,
did she say Malfoy??? Well, I guess we do need to settle our
differences.
Before you know it tomorrow
came. The day was Wednesday, January 28, and it was briskly windy. Harry, who
Apparated to Hermione's house, was dressed in a hunter green suit with a black
tie. His shoes were so shiny that he could literally see himself in them. His
hair was neatly combed (which was a first for him) and he was ready for Cho at
all means necessary.
As soon as he rang the doorbell, he
was nervous. He felt as if a thousand Golden Snitches were flying around in his
stomach. But he knew that he would be all right, especially for Cho. The door
opened and Hermione was at the door.
"Harry!" Hermione cried, giving him a
great hug. "So good to see you! Everyone is here!"
"Great," Harry said, "So, where's Draco?
Why is he here?"
"Well, Draco is here because he really
just wanted to butt in as usual." Hermione said in a matter-of-fact tone.
"I hope he falls in a ditch, that bloody
bastard," Harry said.
"Hiya Harry!" said a soft, beautiful
voice. It was Cho, and Harry fainted on the spot.
*A/N: So, you've actually took time to read the shortest most sentimental chapter that I have ever written. Well, please R&R the rest of my story, and check out the next chapter, The Reunion of a Lifetime~~*)* HarryPotter0013
