Chapter 2- Regret, Hate, Hurt
"What?" Cho's voice was filled with hurt. "Why did you ever come to look for me? Why can't you go back to your darling Hermione? I don't need you Harry Potter! Go away!" Cho's eyes filled with tears as she rushed past Harry.
Harry was left stunned. Cho's hurt look filled his heart with regret. He wanted to tell her that his love for her had never changed. He wanted to tell her that she was the one, which he thought of everyday in classes that he looked around for everyday in the corridors. But her tears drowned the hope in his heart. With a heavy heart, Harry dragged himself back into the Gryffindor common room. Back to sleep.
In the Ravenclaw common room, one lone figure sat crying by the fire. She couldn't bring her self to go to sleep. She couldn't forget Harry. The images of their breakup replayed itself over and over in her mind. She sat down and sobbed her heart out.
"Cho?" A quiet voice called out to her. It was Marietta, her closest friend. "Are you all right? I saw you leave and I guessed that you probably would go to the pitch to practice? Cho? What's wrong? Marietta voice was full of pity as she saw the tears on Cho's pretty face.
"Marietta...I saw him." Cho's voice wobbled as her eyes became flooded with tears. "I saw Harry, he came to the pitch." Cho was unable to control her crying any longer. "Oh Marietta...Why did he have to come and hurt me so badly again? I thought I could forget about him. But, he made me remember the lovely times I had with him. He made me remember how much I love him."
"Oh Cho," Marietta moved forwards to hug her best friend.
The next day was bright and clear but Harry was in no mood to play Quidditch. He silently left his chatting friends and walked towards the lake. Hermione's eyes followed Harry's figure as he left the great hall. She could tell that something was wrong.
Harry walked out of the great hall into the open. He walked towards the lake past a bunch of giggling Gryffindor 1st year girls. The events of yesterday night kept on replaying in his mind. How could he let Cho know? How could he live without her? He sat down and looked at the lake the giant squid was swimming lazily in the cool waters. Harry sighed.
"Harry?" A girl's voice called out to him. He turned around eagerly thinking it was Cho, a disappointed look met Hermione's face. Harry meekly gave her a smile and turned back to face the lake.
"What's wrong?" asked Hermione. "You seemed preoccupied." She sat down next to him and looked at his somber face. "Is it Cho?" She prodded again. "I can tell it is..."
Harry turned his head and looked at Hermione's face. He turned back towards the lake again. He knew that he could trust her and tell her anything, but he couldn't bring himself to open up to her. He opened his mouth, and closed it again. "You're right. It is Cho." His heart fills with regret. He couldn't bring himself to say anymore but he was sure that Hermione would understand.
Hermione gently took hold of his hand. "Harry, don't bottle it all to yourself. You know you can confide into me. Ever since you and Cho broke up, you two haven't being right. What's wrong? Why did you break up in the first place?"
Just then, Harry and Hermione heard someone yelling across the lake. "Cho! Hey Cho! Wait up for me!" It was Roger Davis, the Ravenclaw quidditch captain who had being after Cho for years. Harry saw Cho streaking across the opposite bank and rushing off. He got up to stop Roger Davis from chasing her, but he stopped. He sat down again. " To tell you the truth Hermione, we broke up, because of you."
Hermione looked horrified. "Oh Harry, I'm sorry." She sprang up and embraced Harry. Harry felt his heart move for this pretty and smart girl. He felt his hands move to embrace her back. Then. He pushed her away. "No! Hermione Don't!" He backed away from her and rushed after Cho's path
Hermione was left, her heart filled with hatred for Cho Chang and hurt from Harry's rejection. She had thought that her chance would have come ever since Harry and Cho broke up. But it was going to take a little more, to win Harry's heart. She could not let Harry and Cho get together again. She got up and followed Harry's disappearing figure.
