Just Another Day Ch.3

By: Hannah Fowler

The next morning Harry was off to the first charms class of the year. He was pleasantly surprised to find that he, Ron and Hermione were sitting together again. Throughout the class, he found that he was incredibly, distracted by the interest in Cho's smile last night. It was as if she was calling him towards her. Her smile, he thought, was so seductive. He had only wondered what her kisses felt like upon him. "Harry! Pay attention!" Whispered Hermione with great annoyance in her voice.

"Yeah, sorry...I forgot..." Murmured Harry.

Ron looked at Hermione with disgust in his eyes, "Leave the poor guy alone Hermione! He's got enough on his mind already, he doesn't need you giving him orders all the time!"

"Ron! I can defend myself thanks!" Harry yelled.

The entire class looked at Harry, Ron and Hermione. Professor Flitwick looked at Harry with an extremely angered face. "In the corridor Potter!" He yelled. Harry got up from his seat and walked over to the hallway, he looked back halfway only to see Ron and Hermione looking at him with the most astonished faces on themselves. Harry knew he had made a complete fool of himself.

Harry sat in the hallway for a half-hour and not one person was to be seen. It looked as though the school was dead. Soon enough Harry heard footsteps coming down the corridor. He had not bothered to look up to see who it was, until they said 'Hi'.

"Hi Harry" said a soft voice above.

Harry looked up to see who had started the conversation. It was Cho. Harry felt the blood rush to his head. He would rather have a 'Hi Harry' from Cho then a million from anyone else.

"H-hey Cho. Whatcha' u-up to?" He asked, slowly standing up.

"Oh, just heading off to the library. What about you?" She said while flipping her hair.

"I got in trouble...yelled at Ron," He said looking into her eyes.

"That's awful. Well, I hope you two work things out. You seem so close." She uttered.

"Yeah, I guess we are. Thanks anyway." He said smiling.

"That's good. Well I should be off. I'll talk to you later though. Tell me how things work out between you two!" She said while walking off waving at him.

"Yeah, talk to you later..." He yelled.

'Talk to you later'. Those words meant everything coming from Cho's mouth. He didn't know what to think. Everything he knew floated away, and he just focused on that one conversation. On how she walked, how she would touch her hair, and how she smiled at him...Cho, was all he could think about. Flitwick had soon opened the door and whispered, "You may come back in Potter."

"Thanks..." He whispered back.

He walked back in to see Ron and Hermione talking to each other and scowling at him. Harry summoned up all his courage and sat next to them.

"Look, I'm sorry you guys. I just needed some time to think." He whispered to them.

"About what?" Hermione asked.

"About...Cho," He said looking at the both of them, "Something happened last night that got me thinking. I'll tell you all about it after class." He said.

"And Harry...I'm sorry to." Hermione said.

"Yeah, I know." Harry said laughing.
