~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chapter 4:
Harry was sitting in the common room watching Hermione studying a potion they had learnt that afternoon with Snape. It had been a particularly tricky one which Harry had done wrong and ended up making his Toad explode instead of shrink when he forced it down the toads throat.
But Harry's thoughts about potions and toads were cut off by a loud tapping at the common room window. Harry looked over to see the barn owl standing on a ledge with a letter tied to his leg.
Harry dashed over to the window in excitement and pulled the letter off its leg. He raced upstairs not listening to Hermione's confused calls asking him about the letter.
Harry read the letter several times over. She thought he as sweet. But she wanted to know who he was. He couldn't tell her, not just yet anyway.
Hermione and Ron were calling him down. He quickly grabbed some paper from his draw and headed down to the common room.
"Sorry" Harry said when he got downstairs. "it was from....er...Sirius.
"Oh what did he want" asked Hermione. She knew he was lying but thought it better just to leave him alone, it was his business after all.
"Oh just telling me what was happening at Grimauld place, sounds like everything's pretty boring, I'm just going to write a reply when I've finished my homework.
Harry sat back down and pretended to be writing his homework, just out of Hermione's eyesight.
He got about half way through the letter when Ron came through the portrait hole carrying his broomstick. His was soaked and headed straight up to his dormitory, Harry and Hermione thought it best not to ask questions, Ron looked pretty pissed off and likely to take it out on anyone who spoke to him.
"Must be raining outside" laughed Harry as soon as Ron was out of the room. Hermione snorted.
"Gee, you think!" Harry had backed out of Quidditch training that week because he had too much homework to catch up on. (amazingly Angelina had understood and let him off, go figure.)
Harry continued to write thinking hard about anything he said in the letter, he had to make it sound right.
Five minutes later Ron came down wearing a clean set of clothes and looking considerably happier.
"Damn weather!" He muttered to himself, "You are so lucky to get out of training this week!" Ron exclaimed to Harry.
"Weather and Angelina giving you a hard time?" asked Harry trying not to laugh.
"It's not funny, I'm bloody froze!" Ron said angrily. "Well only one more this week" he said. Hope the weather gets bloody better, Oh by the way, there's an owl in the dormitory, I don't recognise the owl, I wondered if it was for you, it doesn't have an address."
Harry went upstairs to his dormitory, there was a tawny owl sitting on his bed. The letter was from Sirius. It read
Hi Harry!
How's Hogwarts, anything interesting happening over there. Sorry I couldn't be bothered to put an address this owl knows you pretty well now figured it would know where to go.
Sirius
Harry smiled, Sirius, his ever caring godfather. He must be pretty bored if his writing this boring crap. But it seemed wrong not to reply, give Sirius something to do. So he quickly wrote.
Sirius
Hogwarts is pretty boring, just the usual mountains of homework and Quidditch training. You sound pretty bored, I guess you've got nothing to do either. Say hello to Buckbeak for me!
Harry
He quickly sent the owl on its way and went back to the common room.
Little did he know that while he'd been upstairs he'd left his letter he was writing to Cho on the table, Hermione and Ron hadn't been able to stop themselves from reading it. So far it said.
Dear Cho
I'm sorry I can't tell you who I am, not yet anyway. All I can say is that I really love you but I am too scared to talk to you. Please don't ign----
That was a much as it said.
"Bloody hell!" said Ron
"sssshhhh" said Hermione, "Harry could come back any time and see us, then what do you think he'll do." Ron thought about this and dropped his voice to a whisper.
"Why didn't he tell us, I knew there was something on his mind, but I thought he would tell me if I didn't get at him to tell me," Ron said thoughtfully.
"Oh come on," Hermione said as if it was obvious. "Harry won't us anything, you know what he's like, imagine what you would have done if he'd told you." Hermione said. Ron shrugged.
"Fair point," he said. "So what should we do."
"We're not going to do anything, it's Harry's business remember, nothing to do with you. We have to stay out of this one." Hermione said firmly. Ron looked disappointed but they heard footsteps so both rushed back to their seats and acted like nothing had ever happened.
"So was the letter for you?" Hermione asked unconcernedly.
"No" Harry lied. It had come to the wrong dormitory I think?" he said, the lying was getting easier. (Remember he told Hermione the first letter was from Sirius, why would he get 2 in one night. just had to remind you.)
Harry went back to his homework/letter. The rest of the evening passed pretty much the same as most. Just before he went to bed Harry went up to the Owlery to send his letter to Sirius/Cho.
Once at the Owlery he read it through once more just to make sure it was ok.
Dear Cho
I'm sorry I can't tell you who I am, not yet anyway. All I can say is that I really love you but I am too scared to talk to you. Please don't ignore me just because you don't know who I am. I promise to tell you when I'm ready, but I need to make sure I trust you first and that I'm not rushing into this. Please write back.
Love, always ?????????
Harry tied the letter to the same barn Owl as last time and let it fly away into the night air.
CHO'S DORMITORY:
Cho was turning in early. She needed a good nights sleep to think about her secret admirer.
But just as she had drifted off to sleep she was woken by that tapping noise again. She scrambled out of bed, anxious for the answer. She read the letter a few times over but thought it too late to write a response. She folded up the letter a placed it carefully in her drawer. She fell asleep thinking about the letter, she felt surprisingly calm and happy as she lay on her four-poster slowly drifting into a dreamless sleep.
THE NEXT MORNING:
When Harry woke up the next morning there was still no reply from Cho. So Harry went down to breakfast with Ron and Hermione trying to hide his disappointment.
First lesson was Divination. So after breakfast Harry and Ron said goodbye to Hermione as she headed off to Arithmancy.
Hermione wandered slowly along the corridors to Arithmancy. She was still thinking about Harry's letter. She couldn't believe Harry would ever do anything like that, it just wasn't in his character.
She was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't notice where she was going. She felt herself falling back on to the cold hard floor. She looked up and saw who she had just bumped into. (literally) It was Cho Chang. Hermione gasped.
"Oh....er...s...sorry Cho, I wasn't watching what I was doing." Hermione stuttered.
"It's ok, I should have been looking where I was going too." Said Cho as she bent down to help Hermione pick up her books.
Just then Hermione had an over powering urge to tell Cho. It just seemed the right thing to do. She tried to tell herself that it was Harry's secret she had to stay out of his business. She wasn't even supposed to know, it would be betraying Harry.
"er...Cho...I have to tell you something." Hermione said before she could stop herself. Cho looked up looking confused.
"Ok Hermione go ahead." Cho replied.
"Well, this is hard to say....er....I....I who's sending the anonymous letters." Hermione said quickly. Cho gasped at Hermione and looked shocked.
"H...h....how did you know I was g...g..getting letters," Cho stammered.
"Because Harry's sending them." Hermione said then gasped. "I gotta go...er..see you around." And with that Hermione ran along the corridor and into her Arithmancy classroom.
