Rowling does\'85.and some Warner Brothers people.\par Chapter NINE\par \tab Cho walked back and forth through the length of bedroom. She opened her wardrobe and looked at her midnight blue gown she bought for the Yule Ball. \i Eh, what's the use. Do I even have a reason to go to the ball anymore? There's no one to impress anymore. Theoden probably wouldn't notice I wasn't there. Well, maybe he would. Ah what the heck.\i0\par \tab Cho slipped into her gown and looked at herself in the mirror. \i Hmm...not to shabby\i0 . She put on her strappy black stilettos and tried to walk to the mirror without falling. \i This isn't going to work\i0 . She took out her wand that she had stuck in her hair like a chopstick and reduced the length of the heels. She took one last look in the mirror and went into the bathroom to put on her make-up. She looked up after she put on her earrings and saw Draco putting gel into his hair. His shirt was half buttoned and dress robe lay on the counter next to the sink. Cho didn't hesitate to talk to him and just begin to put her make up on.\par "You don't really need that...stuff" said Draco still concentrating on his hair.\par "Is that a compliment?" asked Cho concentrating on her make up.\par "I'm just saying..." and he walked out the door into his room.\par \tab Cho finished up and walked into her room. \i Why does my life feel like it's been turned upside down? Are we really over? Wait, we were never together. Well, sort of. Actually, no not at all. \i0 Cho was suddenly startled with a knock on her door. She opened it and there was Draco standing right before her. His hair was gelled in a was that wasn't so gelled and his dress robe fit him perfectly.\par "So, where are you meeting Theoden?" asked Draco.\par "Probably in front of the Great Hall. I haven't talked to him for a while."\par "Oh, I'm meeting Ginger there too. Do you want to walk together?" asked Draco pretending like he wasn't really interested.\par "Yeah, that'd be great." \i I can't be seen walking alone when I look this good. \i0 Draco took Cho's jacket and walked her out the door. \i Why is he being so nice? \i0 Draco walked Cho to the front entrance and waited with her for their dates.\par "Draco?"\par "Yeah?"\par "Why are you being so nice?"\par "Am I?" said Draco as more of a statement.\par "Yeah." Cho saw Theoden and started walking towards him. \par "Hey, Theoden. Are you ready?" asked Cho.\par "Yeah, yeah I am. You look really nice tonight. N-n-not that you never look nice. You just look nicer than you usually do. I-I-I mean, O.K. I'll shut up now"\par "Haha." Cho laughed. Guys. "Come on let's go inside."\par \tab They walked inside next to each other. A slow song was playing and Cho dragged Theoden onto the dance floor. Theoden was dancing really clumsily and Cho felt like she had her heels on. \i Wow, this guy is only good at Quidditch and just sucks at everything else. \i0 Cho decided to put her arms around his neck so that they would just sway side to side since he was so bad at the foot movements. Theoden began to move his hands down Cho's back and laid them on her bottom. He pushed Cho closer to him and she was aware of it. He tilted his head and leaned closer and closer to Cho's face. When they were only inches apart, Cho heard a shout. \par "Hey!"\par \tab Cho looked around to see where it came from, most people were still dancing and the music was still playing but some people had stopped to see the commotion. Cho saw Draco running towards them angrily.\par "Draco! What do you think you're doing?" asked Cho.\par "Who do you think you are, Theoden?" asked Draco angrily. He moved closer and closer to Theoden.\par "I-I-I was just dancing with Cho."\par "Yea that isn't what I saw. You were trying to kiss her!"\par "Well yeah, she is my date. You were just afraid I would win the bet!"\par "What?" asked Cho confused.\par "Yeah, that's right. Me and Draco had a bet that to see who could get you to bed first!" answered Theoden.\par "You bastards." With both hands, Cho slapped both of them at once and walked off to her dorm.\par \par \pard\f1\fs20\par
