The next day, DA members started pouring out of the Hogwarts Express, each
saying either 'Hello Harry' or 'Hey Harry'. At lunch, all DA
students/members sat at the Gryffindor table or atleast tried to because
everyone was trying to find a seat next to Harry. That was everyone except
Cho who sat at the Ravenclaw table staring silently at the food. As Harry
fought the urge to apologize to Cho, Neville came up to him unexpectedly
and asked a question.
"When is the next DA meeting Harry? My gran supports the idea highly and wants you to help me."
"I don't know Neville. Maybe tonight or tomorrow or maybe never." Harry left off. Neville went pale and left.
Soon after, everyone came to ask Harry the same question. "Are you going to continue the DA?" Harry ignored everyone and left for Gryffindor Tower. As the fat lady appeared in front of him, so did Cho.
"A-are you r-r-really going to discontinue the DA?" Harry glared daggers at her and proceeded to say the password. Just as he was about to enter, Cho grabbed his hand and he abruptly turned around.
"Please don't discontinue it. I want to make V-Voldemort pay for killing C- C-Cedric." She turned and left after the words spilled out of her mouth. Harry gaped at her and instead of entering the common room, he followed Cho. He kept following until he saw her turn a corner and say hi to somebody. He leaned against the wall and peeked. Michael Corner was pressing his lips to Cho's, who was trying to resist lightly. At that moment, Harry was so angry that he stomped off and threw his DA galleon, which was in his pocket, onto the floor, smashing it.
"Damn you Cho!" he muttered and went to find his friends. Upon entering the Great Hall, Hermione came up to him and asked, "Where is your DA galleon Harry? I want to have a meeting tonight." At that moment, he regretted ever throwing his galleon to the floor. "I-it's-" "It's smashed," said a voice from behind. Harry turned and saw Cho, one hand holding his galleon's smashed pieces, the other holding Michael Corner's hand, "I found it on the corridor to the Ravenclaw dormitory."
Hermione gave him a quizzical look Harry however, didn't answer because he was feeling so jealous that he thought he would break anything that ended up in his hands. "Reparo!" Hermione muttered taking out her wand and the galleon was brand new again. "I need to change the time." Hermione said and snatched the galleon away from Cho before tapping her wand at the galleon. After that, she gave the galleon back to Harry, who put it inside his pocket and went to talk to Ron.
Harry tapped Ron on the back, who was telling them about the ordeal that had happened a month ago except in a different way because he made it sound like he was the man of the night. "What is it Harry?" he asked as he turned, obviously annoyed at having to turn around. Then he noticed the look on Harry's face. It was as if he was jealous of someone.
"What's wrong?" Ron asked suspiciously. Harry, up until now hadn't known the look on his face, desperately tried to turn it back to normal. "Eh? What are you talking about?"
"Never mind!" Ron went back to his tale sighing.
That night after dinner at about 9 pm, Harry, Ron and Hermione snuck out to the Room of Requirement. A few minutes after they'd arrived, all DA members slowly started to arrive. After everyone was there, Harry began. "We will continue on working with patronuses until September only because there is really no point in continuing this club if the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher is good." He looked at everyone in the eye. Some were nodding their heads, and some like Neville were shaking their heads.
"Well, let's start with patronuses. Everyone shout, Expecto Patronum!" A silver stag came out of Harry's wand and it was the biggest patronus Harry had seen. He didn't remember his patronus be that strong. The stag roamed around the room three times before disappearing in the air. As soon as the stag left, the room was full of shouts. Harry went around the room inspecting other's patronuses. He feared going towards Cho because he didn't want to look at her in the face right now. So he went towards Neville and the rest. Neville was improving dramatically because his patronus seemed to be starting to take shape.
He moved over to Ron, who was having a good time as he tried to relive Malfoy being a ferret two years before to use for a patronus. Zacharias Smith was heavily struggling with the spell so he went to help the poor guy. "Think of a happy thought and then only say the spell!" he pointed out and left to help Ginny, much to the dislike of Cho.
The days went by quickly and for a month until the first of September, DA meetings were held everyday for 2 hours. Every member got better at spells, even Harry because his spells had gotten extremely powerful. Now, his patronus form was at least 15 feet tall and it lasted a long time. His first lesson with Dumbledore though, was going to be today, with Cho.
