A/N:: Sorry, this chapter gets sorta mean to Ron and Cho, but they deserve
it. Sorry, I'm getting in the way again. Snogging is the British word for
Frenching. I'm saying that just because I didn't know that until a few
weeks ago and I know there's someone wondering. (And yes, there is a little
of that) Enjoy!!
Harry stepped into the Great Hall with all of the Gryfindor gang. Seamus, Dean, Partavi, Colin, Hermione, Ron, Fred, George, Neville, and everyone else were with them. Half of their team's table looked bare, so they started in that direction. Harry was deep in conversation with Dean and other guys about Dean's new broomstick, so Ron shot Cho knowingly glances. Hermione was talking to Ginny quietly about how they would keep this whole thing a secret. All the girls besides them were talking about the (tragic) Tri-Wizard tournament last year.
It was then that Hermione looked around, approaching the table. She realized that everyone in that group of people knew that Ron was officially going out with Cho. That is, except for the person that would mean most to, Harry. 'Omygosh!' She thought, 'Anyone could tell him at anytime!! I mean, Collin already let something slip, but when he starts ranting again, everyone's going to look at Ron! He's bound to notice!'
"What's the matter?" Ginny asked when she realized that Hermione's face looked scared and surprised.
"Um..." Hermione said when she noticed Harry was listening. She could usually tell Ginny anything, but in this situation, it was best to keep her mouth shut. "Nothing, I just realized Harry hasn't done his potions essay yet!" Harry looked urgent.
"Omygosh! That's due tomorrow!" Harry looked around and gathered as much food as would fit in one napkin and ran out of the Great Hall. Too bad he didn't see Cho approaching the Gryfindor table. Hermione turned to Ron anxiously.
"Ron, Cho's coming!!!" Half the table sang, with emphasis on 'Cho'.
"Wha... What?" He said looking around. Cho took Harry's empty seat and turned to Ron, too.
"Hey!" Cho said, kissing Ron on the cheek, "You guys have Astronomy with us tonight as soon as it gets dark!" She said excitedly, poking the schedule she held.
"Brilliant!" Ron squealed as he took the schedule from her. "Hey look! Herbology with you tomorrow right before lunch!" He added, hugging her. He then kissed her on the lips, which lasted a few seconds before Fred looked around.
He then mouthed "one, two, three!" Everyone at the table either coughed, 'accidentally' spilled toppings on Ron's sweater, or poked Cho with the sharp end of a quill. George shoved an ice cube down Ron's pants Even Hermione did her share by putting some of the ice cream that had appeared on Ron's unfinished chicken leg, which had become something of a 'chicken sundae' anyway, just by a simple count of three.
The surprising thing was, though, the fact that neither Ron nor Cho noticed. That, or they just didn't care. They just kept kissing. Ginny leaned over and confirmed all of their fears: Ron was snogging Cho. George led the trend. It seemed everyone in the whole Great Hall followed it. Even some teachers devoted their eyes to the staring-fest. Dumbledore craned his neck to catch a glimpse.
Hermione rolled her eyes. "That's sick." She muttered and stormed off to the common room. Even Harry describing how he would kill Ron was better than that. Seamus went back to talking, and the rest of the Great Hall followed. Every so often, someone would crane their necks to confirm to their friends that, yes, they were still doing that. People gradually started leaving the Great Hall, rolling their eyes and muttering at them, like Hermione, or they shouted something obscene and hilarious so that the whole Hall could hear them and start laughing. Ginny was the first to do this one, screaming, "God, take it to a broom closet and save us!"

Hermione approached the Fat Lady. "Klorp." She muttered tiredly and the portrait swung open. Harry was working on his essay, and Hermione let sat down next to him in the common room. She curled up in the big comfy chair. She forgot she was so tired.
"Done! You look like something happened at dinner." Harry said, putting down the parchment.
"Um, Fred and George just shouted stuff about.... um... Stuff. I couldn't take it anymore, I had to get out of there!" Hermione said exasperatedly, closing her eyes like she was going to sleep.
"I'm going back down there, to tell Ron I'm done." Harry said, getting up.
"Mmmmmm...." Hermione moaned as the portrait swung open and Harry was gone. After less than a minute, Hermione looked up, startled. "Harry!!" She said. "Omygosh I've gotta stop Harry!" Not even checking what time it was, Hermione raced out of the common room and into the hall. She ran down the corridors as fast as she could. She crashed into Ginny on the first corner, who looked flustered.
"I stopped him, don't worry." Ginny said. "Ron and Cho evidently took my advice and ran off to some secret room somewhere, so I told Harry that Ron went to the Library to find you, so Harry went to the Library to find him."
"Thank you! Wow, they stopped?" Hermione said, taking in every word.
"Yeah, I left the room, but then realized that I forgot some stuff in there, so I came back in and they were serving dessert, so I had to stay! So then after I sat down and a few minutes later, it separated!" Hermione looked puzzled, so Ginny said, "The It couple. That's what everyone's calling it now. Anyway, when they finally stopped, Fred and George started clapping and so did everyone else. Ron and Cho were just looking into eachother's eyes and they were really fluffy, so they got up and left!" Hermione realized they were near the library. She ran there, only to find Ernie Macmillan.
"Was Harry here?" Hermione leaned onto the tabletop.
"Yeah, I saw him and he said that he was looking for Ron, but I dunno where Ron is, so I told him You'd know, so I think he went back to your common room. I'm not really sure." Ernie said
"Thanks!" Hermione and Ginny said in unison.
"Hey Ginny your robes go well with your eyes." Ernie said.
"Thanks Ernie, You know, Hufflepuff's colors really suit you well." Hermione said, sitting down next to him.
" Wow, you think so?" He said. Hermione rolled her eyes.
"I can deal with a catastrophe by myself!" She muttered as she stormed out and raced to the Common Room.
A/N:: I know this chapter is really long, but I can't help myself. Because I'm really excited by my own story! I know it's pathetic. I want to give a special thanks to allison, she's my first reviewer. Yay!!!!! Ok, Review please! I'm coming out with another chapter soon, because I've got nothing better to do. Ok buh bye!
