Why do you love me? Chapter 10!
Draco Malfoy awoke early on that Friday morning. They always went back to Hogwarts on a Friday so that everyone would have a chance to get settled in and everything over the weekend, and are ready for the upcoming start of the term. Draco yawned and turned his head to look at the clock. 8:28 AM. He looked over at Cho who was sleeping soundly next to him. Draco had one arm behind her neck and one around her waist. He closed his eyes and tried to imagine the upcoming day when he heard Mrs. Chang yelling up the stairs. "Cho Ayumi Chang! I told you to set your alarm for 8:00 and it's 8:30. GET UP THIS SECOND!"
Draco silently laughed. Cho was chronically late and her mother was always furious at her. He heard Mrs. Chang again. "Cho! I mean it, right now!"
A loud groan came from next to Draco. Cho turned on her stomach and pulled the pillow on top of her head. Draco laughed again. Then the bedroom door flung open and Cho's mother stormed in. "Good morning Draco" she said sweetly. She then turned her attention to Cho, whose head was still under the pillow. Mrs. Chang placed her hands on her hips and then took out her wand. She mumbled a few words and pointed it at Cho. Suddenly like a gallon of water pour out over Cho's head. Draco scampered from the bed to avoid getting wet. Cho shrieked and jumped up. "MOTHER!"
Mrs. Chang just stood there. "I old you to get up 2 times already honey, I had no choice."
"Ugh" said Cho, wringing out her hair.
"Well hurry up and get dressed, I want to do a one last minute check before we leave" she said then left.
Draco who was leaning against the wall laughed at the sight of his girlfriend. Cho's head snapped up.
"Ready for a new school year?" he said quickly trying to change the subject.
"Yeah, it's going to a little weird but, yeah I'm ready" she said with a yawn.
"I know, the whole train is going to be talking about us," he said sitting down on the end of the bed.
"Don't worry about everyone else" she replied.
The Changs and Draco arrived at the train station at 10:30. They all hugged and kissed and Draco and Cho set off through the barrier. Once on the platform, they went to put their trunks away. There were a lot of students there, for it being so early. Most kids piled through the barrier with two minutes to 11:00. After they had their trunks taken care of Draco turned to Cho. "Are you ready?" he asked with a slight smirk.
"Yeah" she said taking his hand.
They walked on to the train holding hands. Draco led her to the compartment where he and his fellow Slytherins usually met. He opened the door and led her inside. The atmosphere inside the compartment wasn't very inviting. "Hey guys," said Draco.
"Why are you hanging around a Gryffindor, please tell me you aren't with her." Pansy said with a sneer.
"Actually yeah, I am. We've been together all summer" Draco replied sternly. Pansy got up in a hurry and left.
"Yeah, the whole train will know in about a hour" Cho thought to herself.
After Pansy left, the other Slytherins eased up. They talked and they laughed for about an hour. When Cho stood up. "I'm going to find Hermione and Harry," she said.
"Oh, well I'll go with you" Draco said standing up as well. "See you later you guys," he said before slipping out the door.
He followed Cho down the narrow hallway until she stopped and knocked on a compartment door. "Ok, make-out session is over" She waited a few seconds as she heard the rustling in the compartment stop, and then opened the door. "Hey" she said stepping in. Draco came in after her and sat down. The four of them talked and ate treats off the trolley and were having a great time until the door of the compartment swung open. Ron Weasley stood in the doorway.
"Oh please weasel, I was having a great time with my friends until you showed up." Draco said.
Ron fumed. "Harry, Hermione what- Cho! What are you doing with HIM!" he practically screamed.
Cho looked bored. "Hm, well seeing as I only go for guys who are men, well yeah let's just say you didn't fit that requirement." She said with a smirk. Ron turned bright red then slammed the compartment door shut. All four cracked up laughing afterwards.
Hogwarts
The train arrived at Hogwarts late in the evening. Draco and Cho walked into the Great Hall, holding hands like they said they would. And just as expected the whispering started. Draco walked her to the Gryffindor table then went and seated himself at the Slytherin one. He could see the professor's eyes on him as he sat down. He glanced at Cho who smiled back at him.
The sorting ceremony went by faster than usual and the food appeared. After everyone had had his or her share of the feast people began to leave. Cho went up to Draco and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek and a "good night" before heading off to the Gryffindor tower.
The next day everyone got his or her schedules. "Yes!" Cho thought, they had four classes with Slytherin this year.
That day during Care of Magical Creatures Cho received a note written in script. It said. : Dear Ms. Chang,
You have been asked to report to Professor Mcgonnagal's office directly after this class. Thank you.
Cho groaned. She hadn't been at school twenty- four hours and she was already in trouble. After class Cho hurried down the hall until she saw a familiar head. She could tell that blonde hair anywhere. "Draco!" she yelled. He spun around with an annoyed look on his face, but when he saw Cho his expression turned. "Where are you going?" she asked.
"Um I got a note to go to Professor McGonnagal's office." He said.
"I did too!" Cho said. "Weird."
The entered the Transfiguration classroom only to find Professor McGonnagal and Professor Snape in there.
"Hello Ms. Chang, Mr. Malfoy." She said. "We have something we need to discuss with you. Obviously you two have decided to be together and we fear that may interfere with your game."
Cho's mouth dropped. "Wait, just because we are going out means we can't play?" she asked in total shock.
"We fear that your feeling for one another might affect the rivalry and you would be more concerned about each other than your team" Professor Snape said.
"It's ok Professor, we discussed this already and we decided that on the field, we don't know each other. You have nothing to worry about" Draco stated.
"Well as long as this little romance doesn't bother the rivalry that has been held between Slytherin and Gryffindor, you may stay on the team," Snape said dully.
"You two may leave now," Professor McGonagal said.
Draco and Cho hurried out of the office and the Professors followed a ways behind. They sat at the entrance to the classroom and watched the couple disappear down the hall hand in hand.
