A/N: Thanks to the 4 authors who put me as one of their favorite author's. To know who they are, check my bio! Sorry, this chapter took long. I'm studying and our exams are coming up! Please bear with me.
For the purpose of this chapter read chapter 1-4. Also, all statements, paragraphs, and words in between // is Harry's POV (i.e. //Oh! I am so glad!//)
*~*~
Harry woke up as the bright high hot sun hit his face. He got up and looked at his watch. 12:45 already! He thought as he went towards the bathroom. He washed his face and looked into the mirror. Was it all a dream? Or was it real? Had he told Cho his feelings for her? And had Cho, in reply, said she liked him too? He asked these questions to himself.
He got a towel and dried his face as he stared into his reflection, looking quite confused. He had to know if it really had happened, he had to find Cho. But where could she be? He asked himself as he went out of the Gryffindor common room and headed straight towards the Great Hall.
He reached the Great Hall in majestic amazement. He saw Cho, by the Entrance Hall, talking to Penelope. He wondered what they were talking about. Had Cho told Penelope? Harry thought to himself. Then he saw Cho laugh and Penelope looking really shocked.
// Oh my God, Cho told her! I can't believe her! No, wait, she wouldn't, would she? No! Of course not! It would also ruin her... I think. Damn! Damn me! I knew I shouldn't have done what I did!!! Well, I have to find out. I better ask her//
Harry approached Cho and Penelope very cautiously. Penelope stood up, looked at Harry, and left. Then, Cho stood up and gazed at Harry as she spoke.
"How are you, Harry? Have a good morning?" asked Cho, "or should I say afternoon"
"Funny," said Harry coldly, "I need to ask you something important."
"Okay, what do you want to ask me?"
"Well, about what happened last night, did you tell Penelope?" asked Harry nervously.
"Well, now that you've mentioned it, yes," said Cho looking at Harry's nervous look change into a shocked look, "I'm just kidding, Harry! Why would I tell her?"
"Oh, nothing. Don't mind me asking, but what were you telling Penelope a while ago? And why did she look shocked when you laughed?"
"Well, if you must know everything, I was telling her about Padma, Parvati's twin, yelling at Professor Binns for not giving her a chance to recite. And of course, she was shocked at Padma's reaction. That's it, really. I'd never tell anyone." Explained Cho.
"Oh! Sorry I doubted you," said Harry, embarrassed.
"It's ok. You batter have something to eat. You must be famished. We're all done but I bet the house elves left some food for you." Replied Cho.
"No thanks, I'm not hungry. Thanks anyway."
"So, what do you want to do?"
"Why don't we spend time getting to know each other?" asked Harry.
"You mean like a date?"
"Well, um, yeah, sort of," said Harry, as he blushed into a dark shade of magenta.
"Oh, I'd love to! Let's go!" said Cho as they went out to the Quidditch field, side by side, holding each other's hand.
*~*~
Mean while, at Diagon Alley.
"Hermione, I've found it!" exclaimed Ron.
"What, What did you find?" asked Hermione.
"The Chudley Cannons Limited Edition Poster!"
"RON! We're looking for a Christmas present for Harry, not you!" said Hermione angrily.
"Sorry, I'll shut up now," Ron said as he moved the poster a side. Then he saw something that caught his eye, "Hermione, look at this! This is perfect!"
"Well, What is it?" asked Hermione impatiently.
"These," Ron said as he pulled out a pack of cards and showed it to Hermione, "are Tarot Cards. They are for fortune-telling."
"I know! I'm not stupid! You can give him that, I'm buying him something else!" she said as she went over to the bookshelves.
Ron purchased the set of tarot cards for 2 galleons and went to check out the Chudley Cannon's Poster. Hermione, on the other hand, kept checking the shelves for a good useful book for Harry. Hermione searched for almost half an hour until she found it.
"RON! I found it!!! Look at this!" Hermione exclaimed as she held up a blue book with shimmering silver letters engraved on it, "So You Want To Be An Auror'. This is perfect for Harry."
After Hermione purchased the book, they went to Gringgots and waited for Mr. Weasley to pick them up.
"Harry sure is going to be so happy and surprised!" exclaimed Ron as he saw the car with Mr.Weasley inside. They both went in the car and went strait to back to The Burrow.
*~*~
"Look at the time, Harry!" exclaimed Cho, looking at her watch, "Already seven p.m. We have been talking for almost half the day now! I think we should go back to the Great Hall now!"
"Your right, and I'm hungry," said Harry as his stomach rumbled aloud, "I haven't eaten anything since yesterday. Let's go!" So they went to the Great Hall. They reached the Great Hall just in time for supper.
The small, round table they usually ate on was now gone. The normal four long house tables replaced them, so Harry and Cho sat together in the Gryffindor table. After dinner they didn't know what to do next.
"Harry, I guess we should call it a day? You think?" asked Cho.
"Yeah, um- do-you want-to-to-to-sleep in my common room for a change?" asked Harry nervously, full of tense, praying that Cho would say yes.
"Well, we could learn even more about each other there and there is no one else, we'll be alone," Cho said, thinking very carefully, "Okay!"
//Yes! She said Yes!!! I am SOOO happy//
"Come on, Let's go there now!" said Harry as they both went to the Gryffindor common room. The common room was dimly lit because it was only Harry who was there. They went into their four-poster bedroom. He looked at Cho's smiling face.
//Man, she looks so gorgeous! If only I could have enough guts to ask her if she wanted to be my girl friend. But my damn cowardice causes me to fail! Why can't I ask her if I already told her I love her?//
Cho was examining the place, when Harry said, "So, what do we talk about? Your hobbies?"
"I dunno! I think we should take this time to tell each other what we really, deeply, feel and think about each other. Things we really want to tell each other. I'll go first," said Cho as her faced turned red.
"Well, Harry, I was wondering, what's with you and that- Malfoy- person?"
"Well, nothing really," said Harry in reply, "And I want to ask you something really important."
"ok, what is it?" asked Cho.
"Well, would-you-um-like-to-um- be my girlfriend?"
"um-Harry! This is so sudden. I'll have to think about that. Ok?" she said in reply as she saw Harry nod, "Come on let's sleep."
As the darkness spread through Hogwarts, rain began to fall and before they knew it, a storm was before them. They heard loud, crashing thunder and bright lightning bolts illuminated the darkness. Then another loud, banging, deafening thunder was heard and so was a scream from Cho.
Harry woke up very startled from her scream, "You ok? Do you want to sleep beside me? Don't worry, I'm not going to do anything to you!"
Cho, looking at him suspiciously nodded and lay down beside Harry. Harry felt like he was in heaven, and an angel was beside him. Harry lay awake until the storm was over. He kissed Cho on the cheek, and then he fell fast asleep.
*~*~
The next day, very bright sunlight hit Harry's emerald-green eyes and with that, he awoke with a start. His eyes remained shut but he could feel that Cho was still asleep beside him. He rubbed his eyes slowly and opened it. Then he saw two familiar faces, Ron and Hermione!
They were both staring at Harry, and Harry, not knowing if they knew Cho was beside him, froze. Ron and Hermione had smiles on their faces as they saw a sign that Harry was awake.
"Good morning Harry!" said both in unison, "SURPRISE!!!"
Harry, not knowing whether to be happy, scared, or even mad. All he did was stand still, looking at them both. Then he felt Cho move and before he knew it, Cho was sitting down, in his bed, beside him. He looked at Ron and Hermione's smile turn into a look of horror and terror.
