LatestSin- Oh man! When I had my braces, I could only drink fluids! I know how you feel. Here are some other foods you can eat: chicken soup, any kind of soup actually, ICE CREAM (excuse, excuse to eat a bunch!), and yogurt? Hmm…
Feather-quill- Yes, they can talk to him, but does he know more than they know? Hmm…
Rachel- thanks
Lord Tyrranis- This story only has about 5 more chapters, so it won't be too long. : )
Twoc2bcool- Oh, I think you'll like what happens to the ghost of Godric Gryffindor later on in this story….
Raspberryhoneyx101x- I was casually reading over the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them when I came upon the griffin, and it was strange how it resembles the Ravenclaw and Gryffindor animals together. I think JK Rowling might go back in time and give a clue to Ravenclaw and Gryffindor's romance, I think they might've had one. Who knows? I am going crazy right now because I don't have the fifth book. I pre-ordered it, but it hasn't arrived yet. Hurry up Mr. Postman!
Snow-angel- Yes, a lot of things are happening, but everything will sort out very quickly.
Lily Skylo- Thanks
Isis Stormwing- I don't know how the Griffin came about, but I know it has the head of an eagle and the body of a lion. I strongly suspect that JK Rowling might've created this animal for a reason, and I do think Godric and Rowena shared a romance in the past. Also, Harry has a crush on Cho in the books. It all fits. I don't know, it could just be a huge coincidence. I am not making the story up as I go along, before I wrote the story, I had an outline and I know the consequences. Since Rita Skeeter isn't writing about Hermione, Hermione isn't too offended, and also, Hermione has her own little thing going on with Ron. This story needs a few mosquitoes like Skeeter flying around just to keep things normal. Just like Malfoy has to be around. There always has to be those bad guys, huh?
Cinderella- I don't understand your comment about the Spanish people, but I'm glad you like my story. : )
Chibi Akuma- Somebody is a little hyper….lol, but I can't tell you what is going to happen next. Keep reading.
Harrypotter4ever- No, Cho's baby isn't going to be premature. Dobby does work for Dumbledore, no he isn't under a spell, but he is hesitant to spill secrets. Yes, I think I will have a sequel, because when the story ends, a lot of questions will arise.
White-chocolate- Dumbledore said, "Even I don't know all of Hogwarts' secrets". It is very possible that the teachers don't know all of the ghosts. There are a lot of rooms that people don't know about (like the one with the chamber pots mentioned in book four) and there are a lot of things no one has discovered yet. Yes, the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them book actually exists. You can buy it at a bookstore. : )
OutofAzkaban- I believe you if you tell me you know her, because why shouldn't I? Anyway, your friendship does have a unique beginning with the wrong email address and everything : ) Happy Birthday, by the way.
Cassie- Thanks
Brittney- No, Madam Maxine is not pregnant. Hagrid is not married yet. No one in this story is pregnant except for Cho. The guy that tried to rape Cho isn't related to Salazar, it was just an ironic foreshadowing or some literary term, I forgot. Anyway, thanks for your review. : )
Arlawyn- Your gut instinct is right, the story will have a sad ending. : (
Amscray- Yes, I did change the grade they're in at the middle of the story because I sort of confused myself. Long story. Yes, in the real Harry Potter series, each book is a grade. Seven grades in all, seven books in all. (too bad she can't write like 100 books) lol.
Pterix- They aren't going to question Godric about anything yet. : ) More things will be revealed.
Courtneyll989- Okay, here's another chapter
Heather- Are you sure I didn't write a response to your last review? I usually respond to every review because each review is emailed to me. I tried to look for your story, but I couldn't find it. If you give me your author's name or a link to your story, I'll look for it.
Cho Potter- Dobby didn't blab this secret out because he's very scared. You'll see why. I did read your story, and I review it. : )
Houou Kazoku-Kaga- Not all of the founders became ghosts. JK Rowling said that all ghosts were ghosts because they were unhappy. Godric was unhappy. : (
Dieselbaby- You got the fifth book before I did. I'm going to pester you to type up the first page! And I did not take THREE WEEKS to update, I update like once every week unlike SOMEBODY who's one chapter story hasn't been updated in like a bazillion years.
Christie- Reread the beginning of the story. Your asked, "did they do it?". Just read very carefully. Anyway, the whole scandal will be explained at the end of the story. And no, Cho is not a virgin anymore. I don't recommend anyone following in her footsteps though. This is just a fun little fiction story. lol.
Kim- Here you go. Something more to read. Of course, the real book is out now so whoohoo!
OutofAzkaban- I think I just responded to your review, but maybe you reviewed twice. I'm 16 and I've been writing since I was very young. This is the first story I've published at fanfiction.
Fantasyangel- Thanks
ShortySC22- Godric doesn't reveal a huge secret or anything, but he's there for a reason. Keep reading. : )
Moonlightgirl*ChoChang- What does being registered mean? Any special benefits? I'm a little dubious to your explanation of SARS. You said that a lot of actors left, but I remember watching the news that because of SARS a lot of Asian flights have been cancelled. So how can people "flee" from SARS if they weren't allowed to be on flights until the virus had calmed down? Anyway, I might be wrong. My personality is very "interesting" as you put it. That's the best word to describe myself. I'm weird, I promise. A bunch of my friends classify me as "blonde", but I think I'm just weird. Lol. You might want to write a story about you and Mimi because it does sound interesting. I really have no idea if I will ever become as famous as JK Rowling! If I do, I will probably reveal who I am and that I had the name of 'writer007'. I hope you get to read HP5 soon!
Blondprincess- I'm sorry to leave you with a cliffhanger, so here is the next chapter. : )
Lim-cho- This story will is actually a more of a 'humor' story than a 'romantic drama'. I'm not very good at romance, but I will try to add more sparks.

Chapter 28- The Dream
"Godric Gryffindor?" The ghost repeated.
Cho froze and Harry stared at the ghost for awhile. Then the ghost smiled.
"You recognize me? From where?" Godric asked, looking pleased.
"Everyone knows you!" Harry said.
"Oh? Well, may I ask your name, young man?"
"I'm Harry, Harry Potter." Harry turned to Cho. "This is Cho, my fiancée."
"My lord." Godric said softly. He wasn't paying full attention to Cho, and now suddenly, he came sweeping down close to her and touched her cheek.
Cho shivered to the icy touch and looked at Godric, standing very still.
"Forgive me," Godric said. "You look so---so similar, to…"
"Rowena?" Harry asked.
Godric tore his eyes from Cho and looked at Harry. "You know about Rowena?"
"Uh," Harry said uncomfortably. "I've, well, my friends and I, we read your love letters to her."
Godric stared at Harry and Harry could swear he saw Godric blush silver.
"Sorry." Harry said quietly. Cho was still looking confused at Harry and Godric.
"How did you come upon his love letters?" Cho asked.
"Found them in the library."
"What?" Godric asked. "The letters I wrote to Rowena were in the library?"
"Yes."
"B-but, she went away! How did---was she here the whole time?"
Harry shrugged. "We came upon them by accident. In an animal breeding book."
"Oh." Godric said softly and smiled. "We bred the Griffin, you know."
"Yes, I read about that, too." Harry said hastily.
Godric was looking at Cho again. "My, you resemble her so well."
Cho looked up at Godric. "So what happened to you and Rowena?"
"We were each other's greatest loves." Godric said. "But for some reason, she decided to marry Salazar Slytherin, but ran off on her wedding day. And I never saw her again. I've never been happy since. Everything was going great one day, and the next, all gone."
"I'm sorry." Cho said to Godric.
"You never found out where Rowena ran off to?" Harry asked.
"No. Never." Godric said and the brims of his eyes became watery. He cleared his throat and then tried to smile. "So, Harry Potter. Tell me, did you come across anything else of Rowena's and mine?"
"Oh." Harry said. "Just a locket, pictures, you know….wedding invitation….ahem…."
"Well then!" Godric said in a fatherly voice, as if talking to his son whom just discovered the love letters of his parents. "I would like to see them, could I?"
"Oh, yeah." Harry said quickly, nodding.
"But I would like to be left alone, please. Could you bring them to me so I can read them privately in the Owlery?"
"Okay." Harry said. He walked off with Cho, hand in hand.
Godric gave a contently sigh. "Don't ever let go of her, Harry."
Harry gave a grin. "I won't."
Cho smiled at Godric and waved good-bye.
* *
That night, Harry had a very strange dream. He dreamt that Cho was at the altar, wearing the wedding dress he had bought her, looking angelic and very, very pretty. Harry felt a sudden rush as he was walking down the aisle. Everyone at Hogwarts was there. Harry's lips turned up to a grin as he saw Cho standing, waiting for him. She was smiling. There was a baby being held by someone. The person wasn't recognizable, but then Cho changed.
Cho changed into Rowena and Rowena was wearing the wedding dress. Harry stopped. He didn't want Rowena. He wanted Cho. But then Godric was walking down the aisle to Rowena. He brushed by Harry, who stood there very confused. Godric ran up to his bride and they wed.
Harry turned around, and saw a hundred girls wearing wedding dresses behind him. Among those were Ginny. The funny thing was, Ginny was the only one he could see.
Harry woke up with a start. Panting heavily, he could see the faint sky coming to morning. He threw off his covers and just as he got up, he saw someone standing there, looking at him.
"OH MY GOSH!" Harry gasped from shock and fell back, clutching his heart.
"Sorry, Harry, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to scare you like that." Cho apologized. "I had this very weird dream, and I just had to see you."
Harry was still recovering from the shock of seeing Cho suddenly by his side. "Sorry, I'm still, hold on. Let me catch my breath." Then he looked at Cho, standing there looking very nervous and extremely apologetic. "How did you get in here?"
"I was walking around, waiting for you to get up so I could talk to you. I ran into Hermione. She was in the library studying for something. I asked her the password so I could talk to you, and she gave it to me." Cho rubbed her arms. "I'm cold, could I----?"
"Huh?" Harry just figured out what Cho said. "Oh, sure."
"Thanks." Cho climbed into Harry's bed and pulled the covers up. "I'm so cold."
"It's February, Cho! What were you doing walking around with no coat on?" Harry said.
Cho smiled. "Sorry."
As she lay next to him, two thoughts occurred to Harry.
One was, if anyone happened to wake up, especially Ron, he would never heard the end of it.
Second thought was, 'Cho has the softest arms and legs.' Harry noticed that his body produced a zing as Cho rested her head beside Harry.
Harry was careful not to let Cho catch him staring at her body like that.
"What was your dream about?" Harry asked.
"Our wedding." Cho answered and looked up to Harry. "I had this strange dream that, at our wedding, a hundred grooms were there, and I couldn't find you."
Harry blinked. "Oh?"
"Harry, I need to tell you something." Cho said and moved closer to Potter. Harry Potter swallowed and carefully caught Cho's hand. He slowly held it. Holding hands in bed together was definitely different than in the couriers.
"I had this dream, over and over," Cho said. "That our child…was something horrible."
Harry looked at Cho strangely. "What do you mean?"
"That's why I was in the library that day, because I was searching dreams. I had these series of dreams that our child was a terrible, terrible baby and that it's conception was arranged completely in favor of the Dark Arts." Cho said softly.
"Dark Arts?" Harry asked. "You mean with Voldemort?"
"Don't say that name!" Cho said. She looked at Harry as if she never saw him before. "You're really brave, Harry."
"I wasn't trying to be, you know, a show off or anything." Harry said. He asked, "So what was the rest of the dream?"
"That was it." Cho said. She looked extremely tense and Harry, although his mind was telling him this wasn't right, that a girl was not supposed to be in his bed, he also felt extremely content to have Cho lying there beside him. His face produced a happy grin that he tried to hide.
They laid there together. After awhile, the sun came in slowly and Cho fell asleep. Harry was still trying to figure what to do if someone woke up and saw them together.
"MERLIN'S BEARD!"
Harry jerked and Cho woke with a start.
"Harry! What are you doing?" Ron said with shock. Ron Weasley had just woke up and saw Harry with Cho next to him.
Just then, the rest of the boys in the dormitory woke. Neville rubbed his eyes and then saw Cho. "Cho! What are you doing here?" He asked.
"I was, I was talking to Harry." Cho said, getting red in the face.
Seamus gave whoops and whistles. "Yeah right! Talking. More like----" But he stopped at the look of Harry's face.
"Harry! Why didn't you tell me you were going to have your fiancée here? We would've left you two alone with your…business." Dean snickered.
"Cho was just leaving!" Harry said, extremely embarrassed that everyone will know by breakfast that Cho was in his bed.
Cho hurriedly rose and walked quickly out of the dormitory.
"CHO!" A high voice exclaimed. "Oh my gosh!"
"What happened?" Harry put on his glasses and went out to the Gryffindor common room. Ginny Weasley and Cho Chang were staring at each other. It wasn't possible to tell who was blushing more.
"I'm sorry!" Ginny suddenly gasped. "I didn't know you were going to be with Harry----in his room---I---" Ginny stopped and ran to her dormitory.
Cho nearly fainted of embarrassment. She left quickly to the Ravenclaw dormitory.
Then, all was quiet. Harry turned to face about twenty people looked at him, mouths open. The Weasley brothers were there, making kissing faces at Harry.
"We were not doing anything more than talking." Harry said firmly.
He walked back to his bed to get dressed as calmly as he could.
"I'll bet." He heard a voice behind him say followed by snorts and giggles.
* *
"Potter, honestly, can't you save your personal life for a more private time?" Malfoy said, sneering at Harry. "Having that Ravenclaw girl in your room with half a dozen other people sleeping around you?"
Harry pretended to ignore all the whispers and giggles around him as he got out his Potions book.
"I was not doing anything." He hissed to Hermione, who just opened her mouth.
"I believe you, Harry. Cho was looking to talk to you this morning. I ran into her myself." Hermione said firmly. "You are engaged, after all, so your love life is your business. I wanted to ask you, have you noticed how odd Cho's term is?"
"What?" Harry said, turning around.
"Don't you find it a bit strange, that she's due in April, when she's supposedly six months along?"
"How am I supposed to know about feminine matters, Hermione? Maybe she's seven." Harry said, trying to keep his voice down. Ron was still dumbstruck of this morning's events and wasn't fully recovered. He had this sort of stunned look on his face.
"It takes a bit of simple math, to know that since it's February, and she's six months along, she's due in May. However, she told me that Madam Pomfrey told her she's due in April."
"Maybe she's seven!" Harry repeated.
"I don't think so." Hermione said. "September, October, November, December, January, February. Six months. Everyone knows it takes nine months to have a baby. So why in the world would her due date be in April, not May?"
"Hermione, you really give this too much thought." Harry said irritably. Snape had just entered the room. He sneered at several Gryffindors and then impatiently got out some bottles.
"We'll be making a simple healing potions today. It's to take when you have wounds or cuts. Lavender, take that ridiculous love note away. Five points from Gryffindor." Snape said curtly.
Lavender made a face and put away a note full of hearts.
"Everyone brew their potions! When I come back, I just might send an abrasion curse on one of you to test your potion!" Snape barked, and left the room.
There was a mutter of talk as everyone got out their cauldrons.
"Where's he off to?" Harry said to Ron, who shrugged. All of the sudden, Harry felt a clear, sharp pain on his forehead. This was even worse than the pain he felt last time. He tried not to cause too much attention, and bent over clutching his scar, trying to ignore the pain. Ron leaned close to Harry and said quietly, "Harry, what's wrong? Is it your scar?"
"Oh no." Hermione said coming over. "Harry! Harry what is it?"
The pain subsided. "Nothing." Harry said, his heart throbbing.
"Your scar?" Hermione asked, keeping her voice down.
"Yeah, it hurt again, just for a bit." Harry answered.
Hermione's lips drew a firm line. She opened her mouth, "Harry, maybe you should----"
"I'm fine." Harry interrupted, and then began making his potion.
* *
Over by the Hagrid's hut, a couple of Ravenclaw girls huddled around Cho, whose face suddenly flushed a dark color and head felt faint.
"Cho? Cho?" Maggie said, waving her hands around. Denise got a spell book and fanned Cho's face.
In about a moment, Cho opened her eyes again and rubbed her head.
"What's goin' on ther?" Hagrid said, coming over. "Yeh a'ight?"
"I'm fine," Cho said quickly.
"Are yeh sure?" Hagrid asked, helping Cho up. "Maybe yeh should go up ter teh hospital wing an'---"
"No, I'm fine." Cho said. "Sorry." She quickly walked over to her animal and continued to groom it.
Everyone eventually stopped surrounding Cho, and went back to work, but once in a while, they looked over to see if she was okay.
Cho was concentrating on grooming when she had a sudden urge to shift her eyes elsewhere. She looked up, and it was like being in a dream again. Not far off, in the forbidden forest, Cho looked into the eyes of a woman that looked almost exactly like her. The woman gave a smile, and when Cho blinked, she was gone.
"My goodness," Cho whispered, not taking her eyes off the spot. "Was that me?"
