Scene Five
Harry and Cho sit down at a table. Madam Rosmerta walks over to their table
Rosmerta: How can I help you two?
Harry: We'll have four butterbeers, please. There are two more that will be joining us.
Rosmerta writes it down on a slip of paper, and walks away
Cho: I can't believe that you invited them on our date, Harry. You didn't even ask me!
Harry: Well, Ron kind of invited himself.
Cho: And you didn't say he couldn't come?
Harry: He's my best friend.
Cho grunts, and Ron and Hermione walk in and sit down next to Harry and Cho
Ron: Hey, Harry! Did you order for us?
Harry: Yeah, we got you two butterbeers.
Hermione: Thanks, Harry.
Harry: You look good, tonight.
Ron: I know, doesn't she?
Cho: Harry, I thought you were with me.
Harry: I am, but can't I compliment a friend?
Cho: Why don't you compliment your date, instead?
Harry: half-heartedly Cho, you look good tonight.
Cho: Why thank you, Harry.
Hermione: So, how are everybody's classes going?
Harry: I'm fine.
Ron: Mine are rough, and the homework is hard.
Cho: Are you going to offer to do his homework for him, Hermione?
Everybody stares intently at Hermione
Hermione: Why would I? I'm even having trouble with my homework.
Everybody's jaws drop
Cho: Who are you, and what have you done with Hermione Granger?
Hermione: What's that supposed to mean?
Cho: You used to be such a geek. Now, you're popular, and having trouble in your classes. That doesn't sound like you at all.
Hermione: Well, people can change, right? Thinking Nice save, Hermione…
Madam Rosmerta brings the drinks. Fade out, and then fade back. Ron and Hermione are no longer at the table
Harry: Thanks for coming tonight. It was nice. We should do it again sometime.
Cho: Yeah, we will. Well, I'll see you later then.
Both hesitate, and then kiss. Cho looks at Harry, then turns and walks out. Harry exhales. Harry then exits The Three Broomsticks. End scene
