Rating: PG
Summary: Cho visits the graveyard.
Cho Chang was known throughout school as the Ravenclaw who's boyfriend died during the Tri-Wizard Tournament. She was known throughout the wizarding world as the girl who turned down Harry Potter. These were the two things that people would whisper about her for the rest of her life. They wouldn't whisper about the fact that she had found someone she loved after school. They wouldn't whisper that she had lost that person during the was. They wouldn't whisper that she was a broken girl who had lost her fiancé. They wouldn't whisper because they didn't know. For ten years Cho had kept it a secret. She never cried around her friends on the anniversary of the day he proposed to her. She never told anyone why she never went out on dates. She never told anyone why she would never take off the plain silver ring that was on her left ring finger. She just never told anyone.
But as the young brown eyed girl looked at the stone before she wished she had. She didn't want to stand here by herself and read the name on the grave over and over again. She didn't want to remember his smiles or his bright blue eyes, because it hurt. Ten years. That's how long she ignored the pain in her chest. That's how long she had pretended that he wasn't dead, that he was just on a business trip. But for some reason she couldn't pretend today. For some reason she was drawn to the grave she never bothered to go visit, to the grave she never wanted to see. And it hurt. She was disgusted with herself. What kind of person never visited the grave of the man she said she loved? What kind of monster was she? Cho pulled a tissue out of her pocket and wiped her eyes. He deserved better than this. And starting today, she was going to visit whenever she could because ten years was a long time to pretend someone wasn't dead.
There it was. I don't like it, but if you do, please let me know. I guess I don't like it because I don't like Cho. Hmm, I'm thinking about two or three more chapters before I end. Anyway please review.
