Author's Note: I forgot to tell you guys that I'm making 3 parts to "The
Love of Good and Evil". Obviously, I'm doing part 1 right now. So, instead
of the intro/ summery of the WHOLE story, it'll be changed to the
intro/summery of part 1. I don't know if this makes sense, but oh well.
Okay, on with this chapter! lol

Chapter 5~ Jealousy and Disappointment
The sun rose over the trees, and the light hit Hogwarts castle. The students were getting up yet again for another day of magic. Cho however was still asleep. But she awoke to the annoying sound of shuffling feet in the room. She stirred, moaned, and put a pillow over her head to block out the noise. When that didn't word, she gave up. Cho lifted her head and saw Eva walking back and forth, muttering to herself.
"Eva?" Cho moaned. "What are you doing?'
"Oh!" Eva was surprised, and almost jumped. "Morning. Sorry if I woke you. I can't figure out what to wear to the Ball on Saturday!"
Cho rolled her eyes and sighed. "Let me see what you've got." Eva walked to her trunk, and brought our three beautiful dress robes. There were purple, black, and blue. "Wow. Where did you get those?"
"I got them at a muggle boutique just outside of London. You like? You can wear one if you want." Eva said as she looked at each of the robes.
"No thanks." Cho did like the blue one. "Besides, I'm thinking of a red one now. Or maybe blue."
"Well, I've got a blue one here." Eva offered her the dress.
"Um," Cho looked at it. "It's really beautiful, but I'm looking for a different style."
"Oh, okay." Eva looked relieved. "Which one do you think I should wear?"
Cho looked at each dress one by one, then looked at Eva. "The purple one. Definitely." Cho said after a minute. "It'll look fantastic on you."
"Great!" Eva smiled and bounced on her feet. "I was hoping you'd pick that, or the blue one. Thanks Cho! You saved me from a lot of stress."
"Yeah. Glad to be of some help." Cho said as she lay back down on her pillow and sighed. She realized she had classes and dragged herself out of bed. When she finally walked into the Great Hall for breakfast, everyone already started eating. Cho had missed announcements. If there were any. She was still standing in the doorway when post arrived. Her owl dropped a parcel, and she caught it. The parcel was small and rectangle shaped. All the students stopped eating and talking, and looked over at Cho. She knew why they did this. It was the parcel she just received. But how could the entire school possibly know about the ring from yesterday so fast?
"What?" Cho said loudly. Then she walked to the Gryffindor table and sat with Harry, Ron, and Hermione.
"Well, I see you've got another parcel." Ron nudged Cho and smiled. "Just don't open if in front of me. I might faint!"
Cho laughed. "Okay. But it can't be another piece of expansive jewelry. I don't think anyone could afford all that."
"Don't listen to Ron. Open it if you want." Hermione wanted to see what it was.
"Sorry Ron. I have to open it. I'm curious!" Cho said anxiously and stared at the parcel. After a few moments, she slowly tore the brown paper, and gasped. Right in front of her was another velvet case. She thought about whether she should open it or not.
"Well? Go on!" Ron moved closer to Cho.
Cho couldn't wait any longer, and opened the case. There, lying in the case was a necklace with a diamond heart dangling from a silver chain. The diamond was also a light blue color, and matched perfectly with the ring. Cho smiled happily, and softly squealed in delight. She wanted to find the person who sent her the ring and necklace, and just thank them so dearly. Harry hadn't said a word while everyone else at the table were looking and talking about the necklace. For some reason, he was getting angry and a bit jealous. He knew a boy was sending these gifts to Cho, and he thinks Cho knows as well.
"Cho," Harry finally spoke. "I think you should give the ring and necklace back to the person who gave it to you."
Cho's smile faded. "What? Harry, I don't even know who sent them."
"Then don't accept them. When we find the person who's sending you these.these.bribes, you should give it back then!" Harry was angry now.
"What?" Cho was shocked. "What's wrong with you? They're just thoughtful gifts! How are they bribes?"
"Don't you see?" Harry was frustrated as he tried to explain what he said. "Cho, a boy is sending you the gifts! How can you not realize that?! Soon, when you find out who he is, then you'll be forced to like him because he bribed you with the gifts!"
"Oh, I see now." Cho smiled calmly. "You're just jealous. You think I'll fall for whoever sent me the gifts, and I'll forget you. Harry, you're my boyfriend, and I really care about you. So why worry? If I do find out who he is, I don't think I'll fall for him anytime soon. Okay?"
Harry calmed down and took a deep breath. "Okay." He answered, but was still unsure.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Pansy walked over to where Draco was sitting, and purposely cleared her throat. Draco looked up. He had watched Cho open the parcel and argue with Harry.
"Amusing?" Pansy squeezed between Goyle and Draco. "How could she get a ring and necklace, and I end with nothing? Chang is such a show off. Ugh. What a slutty tramp."
Draco was about to scream in Pansy's face to tell her how wrong she was about Cho, but held himself back. Instead he forced himself to laugh and agree with her.
"So, the Yule Ball is two days away. And." Pansy a slightly leaned toward Draco, but he didn't get the hint.
"What?" Draco said annoyed and scooted over to get away from Pansy.
"Well hello! Do you want to go with mw?" Pansy moved more towards Draco. "It'll be like last year. Remember how much fun it was?"
"Yeah. Loads of fun." Draco said sarcastically and kept trying to move away. "Can I get back to you on that? I. I have to go." He got up, and left to go to his first class. "Go get away from you for a while." He muttered as he walked out of the Great Hall.
Back at the Slytherin table, Pansy raised an eyebrow. She thought Draco would've automatically said yes. She rolled her eyes and walked back to her seat. Crabbe and Goyle didn't follow Draco. They were still eating. They didn't even notice Draco had left. When they both finally realized he was gone, they quickly got up, and ran to their first class, which was the same as Draco's; Care for Magical Creatures.
"Where were you two?!" Draco scolded when he saw Crabbe and Goyle run towards him. "Don't tell me you stayed in the Great Hall and ate. Didn't you notice I left?!"
Crabbe and Goyle looked down at the ground and didn't say a word. They were guilty. Draco shook his head. Just then, Hagrid came out of his hut.
"Oh! Hello there Malfoy. and company. You're a bit early aren't ya?"
"So? I can get here early can't I?" Draco snapped.
"Yeah, o' course ya can." Hagrid replied. "No need to get angry."
Draco sneered. The rest of the fifth year Slytherin and Gryffindor students arrived at Hagrid's hut for the lesson.
"Parkinson!" Draco called when he saw Pansy. Parkinson? Draco has never called Pansy by her last name. Pansy looked a little hurt.
"What?" She walked over to Draco.
Draco took a deep breath. "I'll go with you to the Ball."
"Really?" Pansy lit up. "Great! It'll be just like last year!" She was all over Draco now. Hugging him, and stroking his hair. Draco struggled to get away from her grasp. He wanted to push her away, but couldn't. If he did, then Lucius would hear about it. And if Lucius heard, then Draco would have to answer to him. Pansy was like a daughter to Lucius. He liked everything about her. He was also friends with her father and knew Pansy ever since she was born. So now Draco had to play along with her. All the students giggled and sniggered at the lovey dovey scene. Draco was happy and thankful when Hagrid started the lesson. He ran his fingers through his hair to make sure it was still perfect. Now he regretted accepting Pansy's invitation to the Ball. Draco desperately wanted to go with Cho, but he couldn't find a way to break Harry and her up. The Ball was two days away, and if he did have a plan to break them up, it would take at least a month for it to work. Draco was stuck with Pansy.

"Don't you see?" Harry was frustrated as he tried to explain what he said. "Cho, a boy is sending you the gifts! How can you not realize that?! Soon, when you find out who he is, then you'll be forced to like him because he bribed you with the gifts!"
