Harry had very vivid dreams that night that which he would rather not have remembered the dreams involving Hermione and Ginny and he assumed that it was because of last night that he had these. He then remembered it was Christmas and rushed to the pile at the foot of his bed. He noticed that Ron's pile was already open and he was gone. He started through his pile. A pair of socks from Dobby, his Christmas sweater and a box of chocolates from mrs Weasley and a wand cleaning and polishing kit from Hermione as well as a used tissue from the dursleys. He was very happy with his presents except he noticed that there was no present from Ron in the first time in 4 years. The thought of it saddened him. He heard someone coming up the steps behind him. It was Hermione. "Merry Christmas Harry. Merry Christmas Hermione." He replied. "Can we talk for a second?" She asked. Oh no he hoped that this wasn't about last night. "Sure" he said. "Well last night when we were in that bush I noticed that you had a little problem going on and I just want to say that it's completely fine and I'm not going to judge you for it, but do you want to tell me which one of us it was?" Harry had been dreading this conversation but thought it best to give her the whole truth. "To be completely honest Hermione it was you. I noticed that my hand was touching your boob and I've never touched a girl there before or seen one so I got a little aroused. "Oh" she said. "Again I don't blame you or judge you because it's completely normal but if I noticed Ginny definitely did so she may talk to you as well." Well crap he thought, just what I need. He and Hermione walked down to breakfast together and sat next to Ginny. Thankfully she didn't say anything and he thought he had escaped. Just when he got up to leave though "hey Harry can we talk for a moment." "I guess" he said. "Walk with me" she said. "So last night I noticed that you had an erection she said. I just wanted to know if it was me or Hermione that did that.?" It was Hermione." He said "my hand was pressed in between your back and her breast and I've never felt a girls breast before." He admitted. Just him saying that made him blush from embarrassment. Ginny giggled. "Well now you have." She said. "There was something else I noticed as well, I saw you staring at cho last night." Oh" he said. "You know her and Cedric just went to the dance, they were never dating. I'd say you have a pretty good chance. Go ask her, it's Christmas." This cheered Harry up very much. "Thanks Ginny." He said.
She was all he could think about for the next 2 days until Hermione forced him to start working on school work with her. He put off his divination chart until last so he now needed to get to work on it. He started to list off lots of different horrible things that would start to happen but when he actually looked at the star charts he saw something for the first time. It was 2 constellations merging in the night sky. He knew what this meant for lavender and Parvati went on and on about it. It meant he was going to lose his virginity. He wrote this down amongst all of his other torturous things and set his page down. The vivid image of him and cho in a classroom together returned to his mind. Although this time there was much more than kissing. He felt him self starting to arouse again. "Harry! Wha huh?" He stammered. "Harry this is the second time you've gotten a hard on next to me. What are you thinking about? Or is it just me?" He decided he was going to kill himself from embarrassment. "No it's no you Hermione don't worry, I'm just thinking about cho." He said. "Oh Harry, why don't you do what Ginny said and just go tell her how you feel." Fine." He said. "But in the meantime you should really do something about that, its not healthy you know."
