"He, he, he, he", Cho-chang giggled as she and Harry walked past Hermione. "Harry, we need to talk", Hermione said angrily. "Okay", Harry said as he stopped walking, "I'll talk to you later Cho-chang" "Alright", Cho-chang said sounding upset, "bye Harry." Cho-chang began to walk away, then she suddenly turned around and handed Harry a note and hugged him, then he hugged her back. As she was waving good-bye, Hermione pulled Harry by his arm.
"Harry, I think you should stop talking to Cho-chang", she demanded," I mean, you hardly spend any time with me, and I'm your girlfriend!" "But Hermione…she's new here, and she needs someone to show her around" Harry tried to explain. "Yeah, well, let someone else show her around, I am sure there are a lot of boys who are willing to help her." Hermione said as she pulled him towards the door of their class that they were supposed to be in.
As they walked in, professor McGonagall said, "Please take your seats ladies and gentlemen." When Harry sat down, Ron sat down at the seat to his right, and there was only one seat left next to Harry. When Hermione was about to sit in the seat next to Harry Cho-chang rushed in and jumped on the seat. "Hi, Harry!" Cho-chang said as she turned around in her seat to hug him. "Hi Cho-chang", Harry said hugging her back.
"Guess what", Cho-chang said excitedly, " My friend, Taylor, is throwing a welcome party for me on Saturday……but I need a date……I mean, um, someone to go with. Will you go with me?" "Well", Harry began, "you see, I kind of have plans with Hermione on Saturday." "Let me guess, you guys are going to study." Cho-chang said sounding upset because Harry wouldn't go.
"So what if we are studying?" Hermione asked standing next to Cho-chang's seat hoping she'd get mad and move. "Harry it's okay if you want to do boring stuff like studying instead of going to a party with me and having a blast." Cho-chang said trying to ignore Hermione. "I guess I could go……You don't mind me going, do you Hermione?" Harry asked persuasively. "I guess not……I mean, who am I to spoil all your fun?"
Then Hermione went and signaled to Ron to come, " Ron", Hermione said, " come sit with me over here. " Ron followed Hermione to the last two empty seats which were right next to, none other than, Draco Malfoy.
"Well, well, well, look what the cat dragged in." Malfoy chuckled. "Well, well, well, look what the cat dragged in, ate, and then spit back out." Hermione said trying to give him a taste of his own medicine. "Shut up Granger!" Malfoy demanded. "why don't you come over here and make me shut up!" she yelled.
"Excuse me, Miss Granger?" Professor McGonagall said raising her voice and tapping her foot on the ground as she stood in front of Hermione's desk. "I um, I was, I didn't…" Hermione stuttered. "Well?" professor McGonagall asked impatiently. " I don't know what I was thinking, I'm sorry." Hermione said. "Well you'll have to be sorry in detention." Professor McGonagall said Handing her a detention sheet. "But I said I was sorry." Hermione whined. "I'm sorry too Miss Granger, I'm sorry about how much your attitude has changed." Professor McGonagall said as she walked back to her desk.
