NyteChild89: Thanks for reviewing. Your review means a lot to me. (
hI!: I guess I could explain this to you as I would not explain this later in the story. The girl who cheated on Draco is not Cho. She just has black hair and dark brown eyes like Cho. Remember in the previous chapters when Draco said he hated girls with brown eyes and black hair and a petite figure? Well, this girl is the reason. Thanks for reviewing. ^_^
The first week in Hogwarts was the same old thing as the previous year, except that this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher is none other than Snape. Snape had always wanted to be in the position of being the DADA teacher, now he got his wish. Potions had been replaced by Fleur Delacour, the French veela who gets attention more from her beauty than from her teachings. This year was Cho's last year, so she stressed much in her tests and getting ready for her job in the future.
Cho was so thankful when the week was over. On the other hand, she was also grateful that she hasn't seen Draco since that last encounter on the train. Her curiosity does bring her to wonder "what happened to Draco?" Cho walked out of her last class of the day, Divination, and was cursing Professor Trelawney under her breath. "That old bat never gets enough in predicting awful things, does she?" Cressida appeared next to Cho and nodded in agreement. "I dare say she needs a husband to control her ridiculous thoughts." The girls both laughed at this.
As it is Friday, students get excited for the weekend arrival, this is especially true for Cho. She pointed amusedly at Pansy Parkinson, the bulldog-face Slytherin, as she was rushing in the direction of the Hospital Wing. Cressida giggled at the sight of Pansy. "Wonder where she's going. If she's going to Madame Pomfrey so she could fix her hideous appearance, she's wrong," Cressida started laughing. "Cressida, that's not nice," Cho nudged Cressida in the elbow in disagreement. "What? Not like she's very nice to you and all. I say she deserves some insults!" Cressida defended herself. "Hush, you, she's coming this way."
Pansy seemed to catch the sight of Cho and the giggling Cressida. She stopped and gave both Ravenclaw girls a dirty look. Cressida returned one just as nasty. "Going to the Hospital Wing to get your face fixed, Ugly Parkinson?" Cressida sneered as she said. "I have no need for such a thing as you, thank you very much. In fact, I'm meeting my lovely Dracie." Cho stared at Pansy dumbfounded. "Is that where he was for the entire week?" Cho asked in curiosity. "Yes, since the day school started, not that it concerns you in any way, Chang," Pansy said the name in disgust.
"C'mon, Cho, we don't need to be here at this wonderful time of the week with this dog-face." Cressida dragged Cho out of the uncomfortable scene. "I wonder what's wrong with Malfoy," Cho said casually to Cressida. "Not that I care. Why? Do you?" Cressida said in a teasing tone. "No! Never! Not that prat who caused that bruise on my head on the train!" Cho got a bit offended at Cressida's tease. "Yes, yes, it's in your nature to care for people, even the worst sort of people." Cressida stated simply and together, Cho and Cressida got ready for dinner.
After dinner, Cressida and Cho walked up the stairs to the Ravenclaw Common room. Unfortunately, on their way, Cressida tripped over the big steps and twisted her ankle. "Cressida? Are you alright? Let's go to the Hospital Wing." Than Cho picked Cressida up gently and led her to Madame Pomfrey.
Madame Pomfrey was not very pleased to see Cressida as it is barely the first week of school and already, there are people getting hurt. She made a lecture about being more careful around school to Cressida while Cho looked around in bemusement. It wasn't as if it was the first time Cho was here, but it always makes her feel kind of interested not being the one getting hurt and being in the Hospital Wing at the same time. Madame Pomfrey brought Cressida into another room and ordered Cho to stay at where she is at.
Naturally, Cho, being inquisitive as she is, would not listen to Madame Pomfrey. She went into the chamber of where patients rested. The only person in there was a blonde-haired boy. Cho immediately knew who it was. "Hm... Draco?" Cho asked concernedly.
The figure turned around immediately to greet Cho. "Why, hello there. Who are chu? Are chu one of mah friends?" Draco said in a happy tone. Cho, taken back by Draco's friendly tone, walked closer to examine if the person was indeed Draco. She laid her hand on top of Draco's forehead to see if he was running a high fever.
"Are you sick?" Cho asked. "Why no! I'se neva betta!" Draco said, in a retarded way. Cho can't help but notice how dim-witted Draco sounded in his tone of voice. In fact, he jumped up off of his bed and hopped towards Cho. It obviously didn't seem like the Draco Cho knew.
Cho freed herself from Draco's grasp in case this was another sick joke Draco was playing on her. "I don't know what you're playing at, Malfoy. But this is certainly not funny. It does not amuse me in any way." Cho said, a bit scared.
"Why, I dun know wat chu are talkin' about." Draco stared at Cho with an innocent stare, one that no one could find any Malfoys giving out. Draco fiddled with a lock of Cho's hair and stared at it for quite a while.
Madame Pomfrey came into the room and said angrily, "Cho Chang, didn't I tell you to stay outside in the waiting room?" Cho spun around to meet eye in eye with the angry nurse. "I'm sorry, ma'am, I was just looking around, and I. . . found him. . ." Cho pointed at Draco. "Yes, I guess you should have figured it by now. He's turned retarded." Cho looked at Madame Pomfrey as if she was a creature from another planet. "You can fix it, can you?" Cho thought the serious nurse was simply joking. "Never had I encountered such a case. He was found in this state when his friends found him in the compartment after they went to get some food from the trolley lady."
Cho is now looking at the dumb Draco. Never again would this boy be able to insult anyone or put anyone down and make them feel bad. But at the same time, Draco's future would be ruined. Cho, at this moment, doesn't know whether she's happy or sad even if Draco was not her friend.
A/N: Wow, this story is progressing slower than I thought. But don't worry, I'll get to the good part soon, hopefully. O__O'' Well, anyways, readers please review! It would be greatly appreciated. Hmm. watch for foreshadowing. once again, thanks to the people who have reviewed my story. Here's a cookie for each of you! ^__^ *passes out cookies.*
