Chapter 2: THE FIRST NIGHT BACK FOR CHO
I do like him, sort of, Cho thought to herself as she entered her sixth year dormitory. Harry was just a -- well he was half way across the castle. She had been thinking of him, flattered by the way he asked her to the Yule Ball, turned red, completely lost his tongue in saying the words... He's sort of cute, she went on, ignoring the babble from her fellow sixth year Ravenclaws.
"Arg! Stupid Ron!" Cho bursted out angrily which made her friend stop talking but instead stare at her.
"Oh he's just got his own issues," commented Amy, as though the thought of Ron disgusted her. "He's just upset Hermione went with Krum to the Yule Ball and he's taking it out on everyone else."
"Do you think so? Because I'm not going to ever want to see Harry if Ron is always with him..."
"Yeah, they're best friends. Shame... So, what, you like Harry now?" said Amy, smiling a big smile and sitting on her bed. She looked like she was ready for a good, long bout of girl talk.
"This isn't the time to talk about it. I've got a lot of homework!"
"So that's what you were doing while you were sitting in the library, staring out the window when you were supposed to be doing that essay for Professor Snape."
"Urgh! I hate him!"
"Oh, so now you hate Harry --"
"No, Professor Snape, you idiot. The first day back of classes and we have to write a two foot essay for him."
"I finished mine."
"Really," said Cho, completely uninterested.
"So, c'mon, back to Mr. Potter," said Amy, getting all psyched up again.
"I'd rather not --"
"Oh give me a break, I --"
"Good night, Amy", said Cho flatly.
Amy looked like she had been denied a real treat but she succumbed to the look on Cho's face and, to Cho's relief, gave up.
Cho wanted to talk to Harry, but not with Ron there. Just -- just to be friends... that was all.
