Chapter 2
Cho's glory
As Cho stormed into the Hogwarts castle she truly saw how big the castle was when all of its students were gone and it was empty. That's how I feel right now. Empty and alone. As she started to walk to the Ravenclaw Dorms, she felt a sudden strong pain in her leg, and she looked down toward the ache. Her robes were torn down the side and her leg was bruised and bleeding. How did this happen? What did I do? Than suddenly a thought struck her. Malfoy. It must be his fault. I don't know how but he has to be responsible for this.
Cho deiced to turn around and head towards the hospital when the last person she could have wanted to run in to crossed her path.
"Hey malfoy, why aren't you hanging around the quidditch pitch trying to get sympathy from all your ADORING fans?" Cho asked.
"Well Bitch, Not like it's any of your fucking business anyway, but I was sent to the hospital wing because of your damn carelessness for the important people in life. I ripped up my thigh when I fell."
Malfoy pulled up his robes so Cho could see. At a first glance, Cho saw the bruise and blood, in the same place as her own, on malfoy's lower thigh. But at a second glance, Cho saw the skin around the bruise, and surprisingly it was dark. Malfoy had always seemed like the glow- in – the – dark kid, but ti was true that over the year he had gotten remarkably more tan. But that wasn't what caught her eye so much as the scrape itself. The cut on Malfoy's leg was in the shape of a seven.
"So Bitch, you never told me why the hell you're here and not sulking in your room."
" I'm here the same reason that you are. My leg got cut up, too." Said Cho, pulling up her robes to expose her cut thigh. As she looked at her cut, she gasped as she too saw a number 7 in her leg.
"Did you know that you leg got cut in the shape of a seven?" said malfoy smirking with stupidity.
"No shit Malfoy look at your own leg. It's cut the same way. But sadly for you, you may have to take a picture because you're ego is probably clouding your view." Cho shot back at him.
Neither spoke for a few seconds, but than Malfoy said "Look bitch, I came here to fix my leg. Get the hell outta the way alright?"
Cho walked back to the Ravenclaw common room and got half way there when she remembered she was supposed to be going to the Hospital Wing. Once again she turned around and started off in the direction she had just come from.
By the time Cho had arrived at the wing, malfoy had already left. Apparently Madam Pompfrey did not notice the 7, or the fact that malfoy had gotten the exact same cut on his lower thigh. But that didn't matter. When Cho Finally left Madam Pomfrey an hour and a half later, it was already mealtime.
The instant that Cho sat down at the Ravenclaw table for dinner everyone started thanking her and apologizing for the fact the she could no longer play quidditch. As if she needed reminding. She was happy that they all appreciated her decision, but what the hell is appreciation compared to never playing quidditch?
People would not leave Cho alone. Everywhere she went they would pat her on the back or thank her a million times. She was getting so sick of all this crap. She looked over at the Griffindor table. Now she knew what Harry had felt like all of these years. She looked over at him. He was talking to Hemione Granger. Lucky bitch…she's his best friend. She gets to talk to him whenever she wants. At least I'm prettier and better at quidditch than little miss perfect. Oh my goddy god. I'm jealous of HEMIONE GRANGER!! What's wrong with me? Than Cho looked back at harry and she knew what was wrong with her. I like him. I like him so damn much it's unbearable. She looked into his perfect eyes- and realized he was looking back. She immediately turned away, flustered and speechless. But there was no denying what had happened. They HAD made eye contact. She was going to meet him tonight and she was just going to tell him how she felt.
***
Cho grabbed a piece of parchment from her room and a quill. She hastily scribbled down a message.
Meet me tonight at the room of requirement at 1130 ~Cho
As She ran back down to the great hall she reached the Griffindor table just as harry was leaving. She walked up to harry and shook his hand and passed the note. Harry looked down at the note and looked up, smiling, into Cho's eyes. She looked back and kissed him on the lips softly and ran off.
