Ron

It tingled, every time a part of her touched me, it tingled. I couldn't help but think that I was simply dreaming. Brushing my finger gently against my bottom lip and remembered that Cho was the reason that it was now pink and swollen. There are no words that describe how I feel about Cho. I could say that I love her, but that wouldn't be enough.
"Ron! There you are, I've been looking all over for you. The Trolley Lady stopped by about 20 minutes ago. When we asked if she saw you she said no so I came looking," Hermione raised her eyebrow at me, "What have you been doing? Or should I say, who?"
"Hermione! Don't make assumptions! You have no idea if I have been-" I stated but was interrupted.
"Secretly dating Cho Chang." Hermione finished for me.
I shoved my hand over her mouth and then raised my index finger to my lips, ushering her to be quiet. Quickly I knocked on the compartment closes to us and was relieved that no one was in it. I pushed the door completely open and lead Hermione inside.
"Spill," I demanded, "how did you find out about me and Cho!"
"It's Cho and I, and I over-heard you speaking through the compartment door when I was looking for you. Trying to set Harry and I up, eh?"
"Bad idea?"
"Oh, yeah. You know since it is OBVIOUSLY Ginny that he likes after Cho. I mean, she flirts with him nonstop. And why didn't you tell me that you were dating Cho? I could've helped you weeks ago, maybe even months. Exactly how long have you been dating her?"
"A little over five months. Hermione, so what if I didn't tell you? You are just as much of a friend to Harry as I am and telling him would crush him. I couldn't risk you slipping up. I'm going to tell Harry once he is occupied with his own girlfriend. Maybe then he'll understand that he isn't the only one who has crushes.
"A crush, really Ron, I'm not stupid you know."
"What do you want me to say Hermione? I love Cho Chang. There are you happy now? I am in love with the girl that my best friend fancies. What kind of friend am I?"
"It's not you, it's Harry. I mean, how dense is he not to see this happening before him? It's only too obvious that you are going out with someone. And for five months Ron! How have you been keeping it a secret this long? Especially from me?"
"I don't know, at first they were little meeting spots in Hogwarts, frequently changing owls to send each other letters. I would do anything to communicate with or to see her. That is how much I love her Hermione. You couldn't even imagine."
I doubt that she could imagine it, I don't even think that she uses her heart except beating and pumping blood.
"I can imagine," a tear came to the rim of her eye and slowly tickled down her cheek,
"Now," she wiped the single tear away, "how can we get your relationship free and open, and not private anymore."
"Hold up Hermione, what do you mean that you can imagine? And why are you crying?"
"I know what it's like keeping in secret, trying to hid your relationship with people. You think that dating a professional quidditch player was easy? Viktor and I were forced to run from paparazzi. It's people like Rita Skeeter who ruined our relationship. That's why we stopped seeing each other, too much pressure, having to run away. We never had time for each other. Harry, yes, I like him. Maybe a little more then just friends, but not enough for a loving relationship. I need someone who will have time for me, someone who doesn't have fans to care about. Harry is too famous to give that to me."
"So you know why this is important to me don't you? Please, can you do me a favour, cover for me so I can stay with Cho?"
"Yeah, I will. Go to your love, the more time with her the better your life will be. Besides, what are friends for?" she flashed me a quick smile and then left the compartment as if she hadn't just confessed her love story to me, or was in tears.
"You're a strong woman Hermione." I commented into the air then left the compartment.
I was too preoccupied with thoughts of Cho in my brain to notice a pair of cold blue, Slytherin eyes, looking intently at me. I just simply headed towards the tenth compartment awaiting to see Cho again, though I just did about 15 minutes ago.
I tapped on the door lightly with my knuckles and it slid open slowly.
"Ron? I didn't expect to see you back so soon. Wait, how are you here? Did you all ready go back to your compartment and talk to Harry, what happened?" Cho asked over and over.
"Don't worry, I've got it covered," I bent down and kissed her lightly, and she backed up, leading me completely in the compartment.
I raced my fingers through her raven-colored hair and then led them down her neck and back until my hand stopped at her waist. When we broke, we only heard our fast-passed breathing, other than that, it took me a few seconds to break the silence.
"God I've missed you," I spoke as Cho buried her head into my shoulder.
