The Perfect Life
Chapter 2
Dear Diary
In the delicate teenage years some girls are drawn into the simple hobby of having a diary. They use the book to vent their feelings and voice their thoughts if only to themselves. Diaries give girls a release that the normal world would never allow. Daily rants catalogue all that occurs to them in the best years of their lives. Promises, facts, and secrets are kept locked away in the pages of these valuable books. One certain girl in the House of Ravenclaw keeps such a trifle. She, as well as Mr. Potter, has the perfect life.

Dear Diary,
Harry actually asked me to be his girlfriend today! I hadn't been expecting it. He sent me a note with his owl during breakfast to meet him after dinner in the owlrey. At first I wasn't going to go because it wouldn't have done my reputation any good to be seen going alone to the owlrey to meet a boy. Then my heart outweighed my head and I decided to meet him there. I caught his eye at dinner and winked at him. It was so cute he blushed and refused to look up from his plate for the rest of the meal.
I rushed to finish my plate then ran up to my room to prepare. I freshened up all my makeup and put on my cute little blue dress, the one with the daisies on it, and climbed up to the owlrey. Harry was already there when I arrived. He hadn't taken the time to change before coming up here. But I suppose that he would be nervous and in a rush to make sure I didn't have to wait. What a gentleman. Then it went something like this.
"Hi Cho."
"Hello Harry." I said seductively.
"I have something to ask you." Harry moved some straw around with his left foot.
"You can ask me anything Harry." At this point I could tell my voice was doing something to him.
"Will…will you be my girlfriend?" True this was the second time that he has tried to go out with me. But I think I am finally ready to get into a relationship that doesn't include my beloved. I told Harry yes as long as he promised to let me control the pace of the relationship. I don't want him rushing into what I know he wants.
Fondly,
Cho

Dear Diary,
I met the most beautiful boy ever today. Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff had Charms together today and I noticed a boy sitting in the back of the room. Zacharias Smith, he is so dreamy! It took me awhile to recognize him, but once I did I realized that he was the Seeker for Hufflepuff. Since Cedric died I never paid much attention to Quiddich. It seems that Zacharias took over Cedric's spot. In some ways he reminds me of my lost love. He is tall, like Cedric, but instead of having dark brown hair he has golden locks that beg for me to run my fingers through it. Unlike Harry's hair I couldn't get my fingers through that tangled mop if I wanted to.
I am going to talk to him after class tomorrow. In the meantime I have to think up more excuses not to kiss Harry. I think I shall feign a toothache…that should give me some time.
Yours forever,
Cho

Dear Diary,
He kissed me! I didn't think of Cedric at all either. Zacharias Smith really does know how to kiss a girl. He was forceful and demanding, yet sweet and caring. I can't believe that he even looks at me from his high pedestal. I told him that I was going to break up with Harry for him, but he told me not to. He is such a kind person. Zach, (he told me to call him that!), says that if I broke up with Harry that the poor boy would be heartbroken and in no condition to protect everyone from He Who Must Not Be Named.
I have found the perfect boy. He isn't jealous of me staying as Harry's girlfriend and he has so much passion. It is almost like having Cedric back.
Sincerely,
Cho
A young girl's life is full of romance and intrigue. Miss Chang's life is no different. Yet, my dear reader, as you can tell she could not inform any other student to the events that are happening to her. If she did such a rash thing as that, Harry would be certain to find out. That would leave him incapable of defeating Lord Voldemort and it would lead the wizarding world to certain doom. This is where the incalculable worth of a diary is proven.
A/N: Thanks to TrixRstrange for being my Compendium of Useless Information (CUI for short)
MrS-SiRiUs-BlAck I do not know of any who like Miss. Chang. Although I am afraid you are going to have to deal with her for a bit in this story.
masha I will upload more thanks to you and the other three that reviewed, if it makes you feel better you can pretend it is only for you.
Acca Dacca Rawkr Narrating is one of the few pleasures a writer can use to enhance a story.
