Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter. Hullo, this is Jennifer(also Cho Potter1 on fanfic) one of the owners to this account. I share this account with my best friend Brittni we will be creating stories together. I will be writing the first chapter and then she will be writing the second one. It will be a pattern so I hope you like this story and please review!! ^_^
It was a brand new day at Hogwarts, the summer holidays had passed quickly then anybody would have been pleased with. It was the second day coming in to Hogwarts, remembering the previous night where the feast and the Sorting Ceremony in the Great Hall was held, was buzzing through all of the students minds. Remembering how beautiful the hall looked that night with the fire glistening brightly, and the ceiling being a calming clear blue sky. It was the sad truth though, that they could've enjoyed the new year a little better if they weren't living in fear. The fear of Lord Voldemort coming back to power was still in their minds. From the events of Professor Umbridge taking over Hogwarts, filling their mind with lies, all of them had once believed that Harry Potter was lying about the Dark Lord really being back. Some of them had even disregarded it because of their parents being so close to the ministry. But not this year, not at this time, now they started to believe everything that they had heard, now they lived in the fear that they were destined for from the beginning.
It was a beautiful day though. It was a new day in which nobody knew what was to come out of it. Whether there would be grief and sorrow or joy and happiness. And now everybody could sense it, things were different now. Their attitudes against Harry Potter had changed completely. Everybody had sheer respect for him, no flaws, they just wanted to know what to do to protect themselves, they wanted to follow Harry Potter in hopes to be able to help him. Cho Chang, a seventh year ravenclaw just shook her head at the thought. She was heading to the Great Hall with her friend Marietta, hoping to get their schedules. It had been a rough time for Cho, she was still trying to get over Cedric's demise. She was still trying to heal from the disastrous year she had from attempting to get closer to another boy who she felt would have finally given her peace. Cho shook her head again and pressed her hands lightly against her face, rubbing her eyes to clear her mind. She let out a sigh and took a seat down at the Ravenclaw table, back turned to Harry, whom she knew was looking directly at her. She could feel the heat of the stare racing up the hairs on her neck. She shuddered slightly and just waited patiently for her schedule to come by as her friends started to chat away about gossip, the pointless fantasy things.
"Do you believe that Michael Corner could've been so low as to just sell Cho out like that?" Marietta said as she chewed on a piece of toast.
"Oh I know! It's not even right! Claiming that Cho had said yes to date him when we all clearly know she wouldn't." Another Ravenclaw, a blonde, had said.
"How did you get that Corner guy straightened out though Cho?" Marietta asked.
"Gave the bl00dy little git a piece of my mind, he'll be sporting a nice black spot on his face for a while." Cho said as she sipped on a goblet of orange juice messing with her hair a little bit.
"Amazing how news did spread though Cho. Now you're the beautiful Cho Chang who is yet again single. Every guy in Hogwarts is waiting to see who your next beau will be." Marietta said.
"Well I can tell you myself, I won't be having one. I'm just not ready to be hurt again." Cho said.
All of the girls looked at her with disbelief. Cho just shook her head and sighed looking up to the staff table waiting for her schedule to come by. She just wanted to get out, away from everything for a couple of moments before she knew what classes were to come.
"Schedules here!" A red haired Ravenclaw exclaimed.
Marietta had given Cho her schedule and she saw that she had Double Divination briefly after breakfast. She groaned in dismay and noticed a red piece of paper attached to her schedule.
"Er…what's this?" Cho asked the red haired Ravenclaw.
"Oh I'll have to be collecting that from yeh. This year the words out that all students will be receiving pen pals." They replied.
"But why? What will it prove?" Cho asked.
"I don't know, just something good ol' Dumbledore thought up of. I personally think it's brilliant. Just put down a nickname and then give it to me." They replied once again.
Cho just looked at the rest of the girls and then shrugged. She took out a quill and a bottle of ink, thinking about of a nickname. Finally after a couple of moments of thinking Cho had finally put down "RavenAngel"
"What's that suppose to mean?" Marietta asked taking a glance at Cho's red paper.
"It's just a nickname Marietta." Cho said a little irritated.
These days Cho was getting very uncomfortable hanging out with Marietta, after all she had done to Cho last year…after all she had done to Harry. Cho shook her head again to get the thoughts of Harry out of her head. It seemed to have gone like that throughout the whole summer. Cho handed the slip to the red haired ravenclaw and quickly got her stuff. She told her friends she wanted to head to the Divination Tower by herself. They just agreed and told her they'd meet up with her later. Cho picked up her bag over her shoulders and pulled her long black curtain hair behind her, heading for the door. She stopped suddenly as she saw Harry and his friends heading for the door. She sat down not looking at them for a moment, she turned to the door again and saw that they were gone. She got up and headed out, analyzing everything in her mind. She knew she couldn't avoid Harry forever, but why was it that she was so scared to even talk to him. As she headed up the stairs to Divination she could see Harry out of the corner of her eye, he was looking at her expecting her to see him wave and she did. She briefly turned her head, smiled slightly and waved to him blushing. She noticed Ron and Hermione taking one of Harry's arms and pulling him with them to the class as he waved back to her.
Cho sighed. "They must think I'm horrible for what I did last year to Harry." She thought.
With another heave of her bag over her shoulders, she continued up the stairs heading up to Double Divination, her mind still buzzing with thoughts of confusion, pain, and of Harry.
~**************************************************~
As Cho climbed up the ladder to the same heavily humid room, she saw a table near a window and quickly rushed over to it, to at least be able to breathe. Cho raised an eyebrow as she saw a big golden bowl lying on Professor Trelawney's desk. Before long, more Ravenclaws and sadly Slytherins were entering in to the room. Marietta and a blonde Ravenclaw had come in to the room and immediately took some seats at Cho's table.
"Cho I would like you to meet Samantha Grint. Bumped into her in the hallway, really amazing person." Marietta said quickly as she took out some parchment and a quill.
"Pleasure to meet you Samantha." Cho said as she put her hand to shake.
Samantha smiled brightly, and shook Cho's hand.
"You're like the beauty legend of the decade Cho! Every girl almost wants to have your life!" Samantha said.
"Trust me…my life isn't all fun and happiness…" Cho replied trying to smile.
"Oh don't be ridiculous! You're beautiful, popular, have all of the good looking guys wishing to have your heart what more could be possible ask for?" Marietta asked.
"A lot…a lot that I know some of these guys probably cannot give me." Cho said sternly.
Marietta was about to say something again but suddenly Professor Trelawney had walked in, with the same misty look in her eyes, with about five shawls on her, her beady little eyes still looking through huge bifocals.
"Good Morning Class." Professor Trelawney said in her mystical voice.
"Good Morning Professor Trelawney." A Dull reply came from the class.
Professor Trelawney continued to graze around the classroom, sniffing in the heavily scented perfume, catching the aroma.
"I feel…a sense of very good era in this room. So much power, so much potential." Professor Trelawney said.
"And so much wonder, what's in the goblet?" A Slytherin blurted out.
This made the Slytherins laugh menacingly and stupidly. The Ravenclaws just glared at them, they didn't find it funny at all.
"Funny you should ask Mr. Johnson." Professor Trelawney said. "Is your curious mind pondering what's in this goblet?"
"That's what I just said, what's in the goblet? Can you not hear properly?" Johnson blurted out again.
The Slytherins began to laugh again. Professor Trelawney took no heed to his words and just smiled as she wrapped her small hands around the stalk of the goblet.
"I believe you all received a small piece of red paper along with your schedule, am I correct?" Professor Trelawney said.
"For once yes." Johnson blurted again.
"And I suppose," Professor Trelawney continued quickly, "That you all had written down a nickname?"
"Yes Professor." The class said in unison.
"Well then, it is my pleasure to inform you, about a new experiment we're going to try this year. Every student in Hogwarts will be assigned a…how will I put this…a pen pal. Only the beauty of it is, your pen pal won't be away in far countries or different worlds. Oh no, your pen pal will be right here in Hogwarts." Professor Trelawney said smiling.
There was a dull silence in the room as people stared at her in disbelief. A pen pal? What would they need a pen pal for? As Cho and the rest of the class lined up to pick a piece of red paper out of the goblet, Professor Trelawney continued to explain about the experiment.
"For the whole school year, including on the holidays you will send your pen pal an owl. During this time you will get to know your pen pal, share your secrets with them when you're ready to trust them, and most importantly, you may even get to meet this pen pal of yours if you're witty and smart to find out who it is. This goblet is in my class right now of course with the permission of Dumbledore, but you will see this lying on the staff table in the Great Hall. No switches can be made, you are assigned to who you picked out of the goblet. But you are however free to owl the friends of your pen pal. But just one friend, that is the limit." Professor Trelawney explained.
As soon as everybody had chosen a name from the Goblet, Professor Trelawney got back to her desk and left the class with one final statement as they prepared to leave. Cho took one glance down at the paper and raised an eyebrow slightly at the nickname. But all the same she thought it was ok. She stood up as Professor Trelawney made the statement.
"Make sure to venture with this new opportunity, for it is better to live in reality then to dwell on dreams."
And with that Cho climbed down the ladder from the Divination room looking at her red slip in wonder. She was very curious on to who her new pen pal was, if they were nice, and if she would be able to pour her heart out to this particular person.
