I just realised something. Angelina Johnson would have graduated in Harry's fifth year, meaning she's not in Hogwarts anymore. So basically now I feel so stupid, cos she'd still Quidditch captain in this fic! Oh well, I can't change it now, so you'll just have to pretend. And also to JkReviewer, this is not the catfight you wanted it's just the beginning leading up to it in the next chapter.

Ghetx2o: Yeh, I know, just when you thought everything was gonna be fine! Ha! But it will get better. After the next few chapters it should all be ok between them. I know exactly what you mean about Cho crying all the time, I hate that about her. She has serious issues. She needs to move on and sort her life out, a bit like someone I know. Anyway I'm boring you, so I'll shut up and say thankyou very. Very. Very much for the great review and I hope you like this chapter!

DramaAnna4Life: Yeh, sorry about the cliffhanger. Mwahahahaha! I'm glad you liked my chapter so much. I can't tell you if someone's possessing Ron, you'll just have to keep reading to find out. But don't worry, he'll be back. I love him really. lol.

Indigal: I know, Cho's such a drama queen, that's the only thing that gets to me about her. Harry didn't actually notice Cho, so he doesn't know Cho's misunderstood what was going yet. he would of if he'd realised. Sorry if I confused you there. I cannot give anything away about Kieran or the rest of this fic, but I'll just say, people aren't always who they seem. That's all I'm telling you……..

Princess Plankton: Ok  I've put in a good word for the untouchables. But I don't see why I should. All my reviewers rock, except you! And stop ordering me around.

Harry-Potter-Rule: Good theory, maybe she will leave Harry because of Cedric, but I think she has to move on, that's why she needs Harry, so she can forget the past. Anyway, I'm glad you liked my chapter, and hopefully you'll like this one too.

TheLightningBoltScar: Yeh, Cho's like that, she likes to blow things out of proportion, drama queen. Oh well, I didn't create her. Thanks for the review, hope you like this chapter.

Miss-Aurelia: I know what you mean, I've had problems with it before. But hey! Yup, Ron's being evil, but don't misjudge him, things are not how they seem………I think……..Anyway, I like you guessing what's gonna happen. Mwahahaha! I will keep you in suspense forever. What would you do if I never updated again, lol. Sorry if I'm giving you too many cookies, have so apples instead. Just take what you like, you're a great reviewer, so you can have anything!

Miss-Cho-Potter: I know I need a better, reader but I don't have anyone to do it for me, when you can get an e-mail that works let me know and I'd love for you to look through my chapters before I post them. Thanks! Until then, I hope my awful grammar doesn't kill you and you can enjoy my fic.

Dory1727: Yeh, of course she loves Harry more. Cedric's just a freak. Everyone likes him because he's got everything, looks and brains and everything. Harry's so much cooler! Sorry I'm boring you with my hate for Cedric. Sorry I can't answer, you'll just have to read on. I'll just tell you what I told Indigal, people are not always who they seem……..

HoshiHikari4ever: Yeh I know, but I'll try to get there soon enough for ya! I know I'm evil making Cho see Harry and Hermione together and getting the wrong idea, I keep breaking them up don't I. Sorry. It'll all be good in the end though. She could never forget Harry.

Tylah: Ok I get the picture I'm updating! Don't kill me with your pleases. I'm sorry I've kept you hanging on, but hey! I'm evil, you should know that by now. Lol. I hope this chapter doesn't disappoint you, and don't worry, everything will be happy in the end.

Fireboy: That's the closets anybodies got, trust me you'll not get the final details, well, not unless you read 'Hospital Wing' I think it's chapter 19 and re-read Harry's dream, then read between the lines. Anyway, I'm probably just confusing you, you'll just have to wait and see what happens in the end. Thanks for reviewing and hopefully you'll like this chapter just as much!

Pippi: I know Cho sounds like a bit of a baby but hey. That's the way I see her. I don't particularly like her character, sorry if you didn't like it. I've tried to keep her in character. Anyway, thanks for the review, I'm glad you liked it and hopefully you'll like this chapter too.

Even at 2:30 in the morning Harry was still sitting in the common room. He was in his usual state of thought, blank expression, showing so little of what was swirling inside him. He didn't know what to do. He couldn't just ignore the letter, it had to mean something. Ron needed someone right now, someone to talk to if nothing else. Harry could tell he wasn't his normal self, the Ron he knew wouldn't do this, not to his two best friends.

But he had no means of knowing what was truly wrong with Ron, or communicating with him to find out. Maybe he should tell someone, Dumbledore. No. He'd been annoying enough this year. Cho. How could she help? Well, maybe she'd have some idea as to what Harry could do. Yeh, he would tell Cho tomorrow……..or today.

With that thought Harry finally retired to his dormitory. Amazingly Kieran was still awake, sitting up, waiting for him. When Harry entered he gave him a comforting smile. He didn't know what had happened, but he seem to understand that something was very wrong.

"Hi," he said quietly when Harry had collapsed on his bed.

"Hi, how come you're still awake?" Harry asked looking at his watch.

"I'm not tired," Kieran replied. "I was wondering if there was anything I could do to help?" he asked kindly. Harry shook his head.

"Thanks, but no, I'll be fine." He replied crumpling the letter and stuffing it in the draws beside his bed.

"Is it from Ron?" Kieran asked hesitantly, "If you don't mind me asking?"

"ummm….yeh," Harry replied not knowing whether Kieran wanted to know what it was about. "He's angry at me and Hermione, he says it's our fault he got expelled." Harry continued slowly, trying to put it in the lightest way.

"I'm sure it wasn't," Kieran replied.

"No, I don't think it was either."

"He's probably just upset and wants someone to blame." Kieran said, Harry nodded.

"Yeh, I hope so." He said. Before changing into his pyjamas and going to sleep, in the hope that everything might look brighter in the morning. (A/N: Wow, cheesy line)

The next morning Harry, Hermione and Kieran went down to breakfast together. Hermione seemed to have recovered from the shock of the letter and they had a cheerful conversation over their eggs and toast.

They left the great hall and headed to Gryffindor tower to collect their books. Harry noticed Cho had just left the great hall and he remembered he was going to tell her about the letter.

"Hey, you guys go ahead, I need to talk to Cho for a minute." Harry said to Hermione and Kieran. Who shrugged and walked off together as Harry hurried after Cho.

"Hey Cho," he called when he was close enough." she seemed to pause momentarily before turning around. Harry's expression immediately changed from happiness at talking to Cho, to confusion at her expression. Her face was a mixture of extreme anger and sadness and when she spoke her voice trembled.

"What?" she said sharply.

"Ummm…..Cho?" Harry said, giving her a questioning look.

"What do you want?" she asked again, with the same cutting edge to her voice.

"Cho, what's wrong?" Harry asked stepping towards and reaching out his hand to her. She wrenched her away from him and took a step back. "Cho?" Harry asked, extremely confused.

"I have nothing to say to you, you're a liar and a cheater." Cho said through gritted teeth.

"What……what…..what have I done?" Harry asked beginning to panic.

"Oh come on, did you really think I wasn't going to find out eventually? I thought I could trust you…….I thought you loved me." Harry could see tears raising in Cho's eyes, no matter how much see tried to hold them back.

"I don't understand, please Cho tell me what I've done." Harry begged.

"Just stay away from me, Don't realise how I feel now? I thought everything was perfect, but you always were good at wrecking this relationship." And with that, she turned from Harry and ran down the corridor away from him.

"Cho! Wait!" Harry called, he thought about running after her, but then decided against it, what good would it do? He turned the opposite way and traipsed back to his own common room. Kieran and Hermione were waiting for him, so Harry tried to hide his sadness and confusion from them whilst collecting his books and heading to his first class.

Harry sat through all his lessons that day barley listening to a word the Professor was saying. All his thoughts were concentrated on Cho. He didn't even realise he'd forgotten about Ron's letter until that evening when he returned to the common room after dinner.

He sat in his dormitory staring into nothingness, as he tried to figure out what Cho had meant. He didn't understand what he could have done for her to think he'd cheated on her or lied to her. He sighed heavily. He couldn't think of an answer. He needed to talk to someone, and tell someone. Fortunately that person walked into his dormitory at precisely that second.

"Hi Kieran." Harry said unenthusiastically.

"Hi Harry," there was a long pause, both trying to think of how to put their next sentence. "Um, Harry, are you ok? You seem…….distant" Kieran asked hesitantly. Harry shrugged. "What's up?" Kieran asked, sitting on his own bed.

"It's…….Cho." Harry said slowly. "She thinks I'm…….cheating on her." Harry said sighing again.

"But why? What did she say?" Kieran asked looking as confused as Harry felt.

"I dunno, she was just really angry when I went to talk to her, she called me a liar and a cheater, that she couldn't trust me and that I was always good at breaking up our relationship." Harry said. Kieran didn't seem to know what to say, and for several moments that sat in silence.

"Well…..maybe it was a misunderstanding." Kieran suggested eventually. Harry shrugged.

"Maybe…….maybe she mistook someone else for me." He said, thoughtfully.

"Maybe you should ask her." Kieran said.

"I tried today, but she just ran off, she wouldn't tell me anything." Harry replied.

"She probably just needs some time to calm down, why don't you leave it a couple of days, talk her later at the weekend or something." Harry sighed.

"Yeh, I guess you're right." He said biting his lip, hoping Kieran was right. "Thanks."

"S'ok, oh and by the way, talking of the weekend, Angelina said we have a practice tomorrow, Thursday and Friday to prepare for our game against Slytherin next Saturday." Kieran said, changing the subject, much to the relief of Harry. They spent the next hour or so talking about Quidditch……as usual.

Hermione's POV

That evening, after dinner Hermione grabbed her school bag and headed to the library. She sat at her usual table and settled down to her homework. But she couldn't concentrate. Her mind had been drifting around all day. She'd thought so much about Ron and the letter he'd written to her.

She could put on a brave face and look happy, but inside she felt confused, sad and angry. After about half an hour of struggling through an essay, she sighed exasperatedly, snapped her books shut and threw her parchment, ink and quills into her school bag.

She walked briskly from the library and found herself following Cho Chang along the corridor before her.

"Cho!" Hermione called after her. She felt the need to set things straight with Cho, they'd never exactly been best friends the previous year, she thought it was best to tell Cho she was happy for her and Harry. Cho spun around to look at Hermione and her expression rapidly changed from interest to anger and hate.

"What do you want!?" she spat, glaring horribly at Hermione.

"Um……Cho, I know we were never particularly close-" but Cho cut her off in mid-sentence.

"So you thought it didn't matter if you hurt me." Cho said venomously. She'd harboured dislike for the brown and bushy haired Gryffindor teachers pet for quite some time, and now it seemed to be boiling over.

"What? Cho I-I-I don't understand?" Hermione said frowning. Cho laughed coldly.

"You're just like him. A liar." Cho felt anger coursing through her veins, she thought she might explode and curse Hermione, not that it would be any great loss. Hermione was speechless, she didn't understand. What had she done for Cho to call her a liar?

"Cho, wh-what have I done?" Hermione asked desperately.

"Just stay away from me, both of you, just leave me alone!" Cho yelled, turning from Hermione running as fast as she could from the scene. Hermione stood alone as the darkening corridor seemed to engulf her. She didn't understand. When had she ever lied to Cho? What had she done for the Ravenclaw 7th year hate her so much.

She dawdled back to the common room even more confused than when she'd left.

********************

The next morning at breakfast Hermione told Harry all about what Cho had said to her and, much to her surprise, she found that she had said a similar piece to him. But being the smartest in her year, Hermione soon came up with a theory.

"Hey Harry, do you think Cho thinks we're still seeing each other?" Hermione suggested after several minutes of confused silence. Harry seemed to consider it for a while before saying:

"What would make her think that?"

"I don't know." Hermione said, pausing again to think, but her wide stretching knowledge couldn't come to a conclusion this time, not yet anyway.

Harry spent the rest of the day thinking of different reasons why Cho might think they were still together. At dinner that evening he talked it over once again with Hermione. They both a few different theories.

"Maybe someone told her we were still a couple to break me and Cho up."

"Maybe she's just overreacted when she saw us together some time."

"Maybe she got the wrong idea about something."

They could have gone for hours, but Kieran and Harry had to go to Quidditch practice at 7:30pm. So they left Hermione and headed down to the pitch. Angelina was pushing them to their limits, Harry knew how much it meant to their captain to win in her last year at Hogwarts. Harry had to admit, they were getting better. They had four really great chasers, (More than they needed), two good beaters, (though they could never rival Fred and George), a keeper who was improving every day, and had a lot more confidence than Ron ever had, and they had him, Harry for a seeker. (AN: I know that sounds a bit bigheaded, but hey. He's the best seeker in the school! He has to give himself some credit!)

But even so, nerves were settling in. Slytherin were Gryffindor's biggest rivals, to loose this game would be torture. They only had three days until Saturday, when they'd walk on to the pitch and face the opposing team. Harry had played a lot of games for the Gryffindor Quidditch team, but he found himself on edge and buzzing with nerves. The whole team was determined to hold the Cup for a third year running.

Harry and Kieran walked in silence back to the castle after the gruelling session. Each deep in thought about their upcoming match. If they lost, it almost guaranteed Slytherin the cup. Harry knew it must be especially nerve-racking for Kieran who had never played a game for Gryffindor and he was being thrown in against Slytherin, in the biggest game of the year.

But when Harry entered the common room and sat by Hermione, she suggested something that drove even the Quidditch match out of his mind.

"I was thinking about why Cho would be mad at us again." Hermione said, Harry looked at her with mild interest.

"Did you come up with an answer yet?" he asked hopefully.

"No, but I had another idea."

"Uh-huh." Harry said, urging her to go on.

"Well remember the night I got that letter off Ron and came to the library to talk to you." Harry nodded, starting to realise what Hermione was saying. "Well maybe she saw us together then," Hermione finished simply. Harry remembered it very clearly, he'd been comforting Hermione, but to Cho it could have looked like more.

"That's a good theory. I'll talk to her soon, I just want her to calm down first." Harry said, Hermione nodded.

"Ok." and with that the subject was closed.

**************************

The next few days passed quickly and Harry and Kieran found themselves facing Saturday, and the Quidditch match. Harry woke early, but found Kieran already pacing the room nervously, fully dressed and wide awake. He smiled weakly remembering his own first Quidditch match.

They went down to breakfast, and Harry forced himself and Kieran to eat some toast. 'you'll be grateful for it later' he kept telling himself.

Neither said much in the changing rooms as they changed into their red and gold Quidditch robes. Harry listened vaguely to Angelina pre-match pep talk, but he was more preoccupied with what was about to happen outside the changing room. He noticed Kieran was looking straight at Angelina, but his eyes were glazed over and he was shaking slightly.

As they lined up in the tunnel Harry thought briefly about saying something encouraging to Kieran but when he glanced towards him, he was staring fixatedly ahead, his fists clenched, teeth gritted.

Harry heard madam Hooch announce the teams and they walked out on to the pitch. He saw Angelina shake hands with the Slytherin team captain before madam Hooch put her whistle to her lips and blew a loud, piercing and screeching blast through the stadium. He kicked off from the ground, the wind whipping through his hair and his nerves being left behind. Just another Quidditch match.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Mwahahahahaha! You'll have to wait and see how that turns out! Oh and I'm sorry if you didn't think Hermione was going to figure out why Cho was mad at them, but hey! She's really smart, I don't give her enough credit.

Also, Princess Plankton is bringing out a Harry Potter fic soon called the 'Untouchables' so please check it out, or she'll kill me, plus she doesn't have as many adoring fans as I do, so she's trying to steal mine, but take a look at it anyway, cos it's pretty cool!
