A/n: Sorry for the wait, but I've been really busy. I decided to post a chapter in honour of Harry Potter's birthday on the 31st. This chapter goes out to desipoplover13 who just recently reviewed. I hope you will keep reviewing.
Chapter Seven: What Happened to Cho
Padma's POV
It was about a week after the hand holding thing that something really weird happened.
A student from Ravenclaw, Cho Chang to be exact, had just fallen into a coma at random. She was as cold as ice, apparently. N one knows what happened, but it seemed really fishy to both me and Ron. I had been noticing that Harry had been extremely down, though I don't know why, because I though that they had broken up.
Ron's POV
I walked into the Great Hall for breakfast, and as I sat down at the table I noticed that Harry wasn't as lively as usual.
"What's wrong, mate?" I asked.
"Didn't you hear? About Cho I mean?" he said.
"Yes, but I thought you were over her. You are, aren't you?"
"Yes, but I still care. I mean when you like someone for a long time, even if you get over them you still care." He stated.
"Yes, I suppose you're right." I agreed.
Later that night when I came back to head's Quarter's I found Padma sitting on the maroon couch, staring at the lit fireplace. I sat down next to her. Something was wrong. I could tell.
Padma's POV
I was sitting on the couch, when Ron came and sat next to me. I knew right away he could tell that there was something wrong. He gently placed his hand in mine and asked,
"Are you okay?"
"Yes, but, I mean, it's weird, isn't it?" I said.
"It was nice of you to be so clear, I totally know what you're saying." He said. I realized to sarcasm and spoke again.
"Well, students don't just go off and end up in a coma in the hospital wing do they?"
"No, I suppose not. Harry's upset though." He said.
"I guess I can see why."
"Is there anything I can do to take your mind off things? I mean, this is really bugging you isn't it?" Ron asked.
"I dunno, maybe can we listen to some music and play a game of exploding snap?" I smiled at the idea.
"Sure. Sounds like fun." Ron got up and started getting things ready, so I decided to set up the music. I walked to my room and put in the Abbey Road CD by The Beatles. It was pretty much my favourite CD by them. Ron came into my room and we started playing.
About an hour later, it was ten o' clock. I knew I needed to go to bed soon. I was pretty tired, on account of I got up at about 5 in the morning. I guess Ron knew I was tired, so he said,
"You look tired. I think you should go to bed. You're practically falling asleep right now." I was pretty much already asleep when he said that. About a minute later I felt hands picking me up. I was caught off guard and woke up. But, I was already in his arms when I opened my eyes. I couldn't believe he was carrying me. He set me down on my bed, and I guess he knew I was awake, so I got under the covers.
"Hopefully nothing else like what happened today will happen again." He said, and even through the dark I could see his smile. I drifted to sleep and had no idea that what happened today, would indeed, happen again. And sooner than I thought.
A/n: This chapter was really short, but I didn't have much time I hoped you liked it. I have the whole story plotted out, so I know what's going to happen. This chapter is pretty much the introductory of what is going to be the main plot in this story. It's going to be a mystery that Padma will try to find out. Well, review.
