It wasn't long before the next four days and flown by and the meeting day had arrived.

Draco was as nervous as ever. Trying to look his best, he didn't want to make Cho think she could have his Harry.

"Draco, will you please hurry up? We're going to be late."

"But Harry, what if she thinks I'm totally not worth your time."

"God Draco," Said Harry walking up to Draco, "Smirk for me."

Draco smirked for Harry.

"A little more."

Draco smirked harder.

"That's it. She'll understand how I fell in love with you when you do that."

How did Harry always know how to make Draco feel better?

They arrived at the Three Broomsticks and to Draco's surprise Cho was already there. She had taken a private booth with the curtains drawn open so Harry would see where she was when he arrived. Draco made his way over to Cho as Harry followed with his invisibility cloak.

Draco let Harry slip into the booth first so Draco could sit directly in front of Cho without Cho looking like she was talking to herself as he drew the curtains closed.

Cho looked up at Draco and she was surprised to see him glare at her.

"Uh, Hi Draco, I didn't know you were coming today. I'm meeting someone here."

"Yes, I know. And he's already here beside me."

Cho glanced beside Draco and saw no one and looked back at Draco confused.

Draco rolled his eyes, "Invisibility cloak."

"Oh."

Draco rolled his eyes again leaning back with his arms across his chest.

"I would have thought that if you've watched Harry for so long that you would have known that I would be coming."

Cho looked at Draco lost again.

"Draco, I don't understand. I only see Harry when he's training and he doesn't do that much but I know he's still alive because his trainer disappears for hours then returns with the same look he always has after training Harry."

Draco didn't look amused. "Well, then you don't know much about him do you?" As Draco finally realized how Cho figured out that Harry was still alive.

Cho looked down at her drink, "No, I guess not."

Harry kicked Draco under the table, "It's okay Cho, that's not what I'm here to talk to you about."

Draco glared at Harry who was still under the invisibility cloak.

"I just came to tell you that there can never be an 'us' and that I'm sorry."

"You don't need to be sorry Harry, didn't you hear? SHE'S the one who's sorry." Snapped Draco

"Draco, will you stop?" Said Harry silently.

Draco let out a breath of air and leaned back into his seat looking the other way.

"Anyway, I'm just here to tell you that even though you feel that way about me, the feelings that I thought were there for you are gone. There's none of that left."

Cho didn't say anything and looked away trying to stop herself from crying. She promised herself that she would not cry, she had changed, she really had, and she was no longer the manipulative girl she was before.

"Oh. Okay."

"I'm sorry Cho, you should really move on, there's no point in waiting for something that will never come."

"But, but Harry, I really meant what I said in the letter."

"I know Cho, but there can't be an us. There never really was an 'us'. I'm with someone else now and there's no changing that."

"I see."

"Cho, please don't be mad."

"I'm not."

"Then please say more."

Cho took a few deep breaths still willing herself not to cry. Not since she had meant every word in her letter to Harry. "Who is she?"

"Who is who?" Asked Harry bewildered.

"Me!" Said Draco glaring at Cho

Cho's eyes shot wide open. She looked at Draco then at Harry then back at Draco then back at Harry.

Harry nodded and she gasped.

"Cho, please understand that you're a really good friend but that that's all we will ever be."

Cho nodded trying with all her strength to hold her tears back.

"Cho, please say something."

"What can I say?" Said Cho, which sounded more like a wheezing than anything.

"I don't know. Just say something more."

Cho looked away, "It's my fault, I was stupid and I ruined what possibility there was of an us."

"No, Cho, it was never going to last. Draco and I are soul mates and you can't keep soul mates away no matter what. Cho, you deserve to live a better life than one waiting for me and looking back and regretting your past."

"But it really is my fault. I ruined us."

"You ruined nothing."

"Yes I did Harry!"

"Cho, you didn't do anything. I didn't do anything. Things just happened and I'm flattered that you feel this way about me but you really need to understand that there can never be more between us than friendship."

Cho looked away again. Her eyes were beginning to turn red but she fought it, "Okay."

Harry smiled at Cho although she could not see him.

After a while longer of some small talk between Harry and Cho they had gotten up to leave. Draco turned his back as not to watch Cho hug the invisible Harry.

Draco's arms still crossed turned around after a few seconds looking annoyed.

"Harry, hurry up."

"Okay, coming Draco."

"Hey Harry?!"

"Yeah?"

"Good Luck with you know who."

"Thanks Cho. Good luck with your new life."

Cho smiled and walked off.

"Well, Draco, you were certainly pleasant company."

"Well I'm not exactly thrilled to meet up with some skank who is in love with my lion."

Harry sighed, "I understand."

They walked out of the Three Broomsticks. Draco was very careful not to talk with his mouth open or to look over in Harry's direction all the time.

Draco walked up to an alley and Harry followed.

"Draco where are we?"

"I'm not sure."

Draco turned around to go back to where they came from but when he turned around they were not on an empty street that Draco had never seen before.

A high pitch shrilling laughter sounded behind Draco and as soon as he turned something hit his head and he fell to the ground, though not before he heard a thud beside him.
