A/N: FINALLY I AM UPDATING!!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 9: Our Destiny
With Hogsmeade in mind, everyone was excited, especially Joey and Harry. While in the horse carriages, Hermione and Ron were deathly close, while Joey and Harry were vastly apart. Joey, happy and cheerful as usual, was all exciting about getting gifts for her parents, since she forgot to buy some for the Moon Festival that happened in September.
"EEE I am SOOO excited!" Joey said happily.
Someone ate too many chocolate frogs today, Harry thought and laughed. Everyone seemed happy about going to Hogsmeade: apparently there was a good sale going on and everyone saved up their Galleons for something like this. Hermione was intent of buying alot more of edible Dental floss that she found in 3rd year. Ron, who also happened to have a few Galleons on him too, wanted to buy food for Pig, who's supply of bird food ran out last night.
Harry was just intent of spending the day with Joey. He wasn't going to say his love to her or anything, but just to a companion and take care of her. Well, not exactly take care of her.
"We're here!" Hermione shouted looking out through the glass. A beautiful view of Hogsmeade came into view, as they were getting ready for the sale. A few banners and such were already up. The door opened and they went straight to the sweets shop where a few Hogwarts people were already there. Many of the hogwarts students were walking around, looking for presents for their parents or relatives to send later. Even Harry found some good items as well, though he didn't know what or who they were for.
Harry's plan of spending the day with Joey actually went pretty well, indeed. They went to the Three Broomsticks (alone) and had a few Butterbears and lunch, then went for more shopping.
"Wow, it's a pretty day today, isn't it?" commented Joey. Harry looked up. There was nothing but the sun and a few clouds.
"Yes, it is really pretty today. I wonder why Neville refused to come..." Harry looked around, but he didn't see Neville within the crowds of Hogwarts kids in Honeydukes or Zonko's. Suddenly, a very pretty chinese girl with flowing long black hair reached his view.
"Hello Harry!" shouted Cho Chang, the object of Harry's affection in 4th year. She didn't appear to be the same as she was last year; in fact, she seemed to look more stressed out.
"Oh, hello Cho." replied Harry, politely waving to her. Joey suddenly looked up, unaware by the fact that Cho had just arrived at Hogsmeade. She also hadn't seemed to notice the fact that Harry was having a pleasant conversation with her. "How are you?"
"I'm fine. It's my last year at Hogwarts so I'm enjoying as much as I can! Quidditch is a pain in the butt though, Davies is trying to lengthen our practice schedule now so that we can win the Quidditch cup this year!" Cho said whole-heartidly. "I know he's trying his best this year, but I think he's pushing it a little."
"Oh, sometimes people can go over the edge sometimes." said Harry.
"You just got a whole load of new players, right?" asked Cho happily.
"Yeah, we did, but we haven't exactly done well, if you know what I mean..." said Harry, now looking at Joey to come and take him away. Apparently she was ignoring all of his signs, as she went to look at the wonderful flowers in the flower shop.
"Of course you've done well! You beat Slytherin, didn't you? AND with that new lot as well!" Cho said admiringly.
"Yeah, we did, but...that's not really the point..." Harry said.
"Of COURSE it is the point! Oh, we have to go now. I'll see in you school later, then." Cho and her group of friends left the place where Harry and Joey were, and they joined another group of friends, in which they all kept talking animatedly to one another.
"Oh, are you done looking around?" Apparently Joey had not realized that Harry Potter, the boy-who-lived, was talking to Cho Chang, one of the prettiest girls in all of Hogwarts. It seemed for those few minutes in which Harry was having a (pleasant) conversation with Cho, Joey was just seemed to be having a ball looking at all the wonderful flowers in the shop.
I wonder she thinks these flowers are so...interesting, thought Harry.
"Hey, Harry, isn't this flower pretty? It's my favourite kind of flower." Joey showed him a very pretty turquoise-bluish rose, in which its label read, "The Oceanica rose, a.k.a the rose of the sea."
"Wow, it does sort of remind me of the sea..." Harry said thoughtfully after reading the label.
Maybe I could get these roses for her birthday or sometime! Harry thought excitedly. Oh wait, you just don't know when her birthday is.
"Of course! It's the Rose Of the Sea. Obviously it would've reminded you of the sea." Joey shook her head and sighed. "Well, let's go. We got to go and meet Hermione and Ron." Harry sighed in dissapointment as they went to the carriages.
"Oh, by the way, when's your birthday?" asked Harry innocently.
"Feburary 14th. Why?" replied Joey, curious and suspicious.
"On valentine's day? Really?" said Harry sarcastically.
"Yes, but why do you wanna know?" She asked again.
"Oh, maybe you want to go out to Hogsmeade? If we do go on that day?" Harry asked innocently, whistling.
"Sure." Joey replied, unaware of her current situation.
"What? Really?"
"Yeah, why not? But...what if there isn't a Hogsmeade trip?"
"Hunh? Oh...er...I guess...we walk out in the gardens, I suppose."
"ok then."
"Ok, it's set!"
