[New] A/N: This is an old story from an older account that I'm just trying to review and revive. I don't plan on changing the plot -just some grammar issues. It was one of my first fanfics. Btw, I plan on shipping the same couple in my next story as in this one. ;D
[Old] A/N: We're currently in the Hospital Wing. Cho's still unconscious. Zanjoe and Marietta are going out. BUT WAIT! There are more surprises to come! I hope you read and enjoy! Maybe even throw in a review! Thankies in advance!
cutechic767- Well, you're Cho/Draco MIGHT come true! Lol, but just in case, please continue to read!
Yukishiro Madoka-Welcome to the Cho/Draco supporters group. Lol. Well I hope you like this fiction. And if you do write your own Hogwarts fic, I'll definitely read it.
- I'm sorry the shipping isn't to your opinion, but I am a Cho fan as well as a Draco fan(-atic). Lol. I will really appreciate it if you continue to read my story!
Disclaimer: All credit, but my Zanjoe character and this silly plot, goes to J.K. Rowling.
A Good Friend
Cho's P.O.V.
I woke up. Draco was lying on my arm. His short messy blonde hair brushed against my skin. I looked at him. He had cuts and bruises on his face and arms. This meant that he was dueling with Zanjoe and it wasn't just a bad dream. It also meant that Zanjoe was really dating Marietta. I began to cry. Accidentally, a few drops fell on Draco and woke him.
"Cho?" he quickly lifted his head. "Cho, you're alright!"
"Duh," I giggled.
"I thought Zanjoe's spell was…" he took notice of my wet face, "Cho…d –don't cry."
I couldn't stop the stupid tears. Draco reached over wiped them away.
"I'm sorry, Cho. If…I didn't fight with him so much you wouldn't have gotten involved, and you wouldn't have got hurt."
"But if you guys didn't fight, and you didn't find out about him and Marietta, I'd still be living in my dreams."
"Dreams?"
"Zanjoe…"my voice trailed.
"Oh…I see." His voice was timid. "Cho, I'm sorry. I know you like him. I thought he liked you, I mean loved, but…"
"Draco, I wasn't sure who my heart chose at the moment. I thought it was him."
"So, you don't mind that he's going out with…"
"There's nothing I can do. If he likes her then it'll be that way. Plus Marietta does like him. She needs a turn, you know."
"Kind of..." He sighed.
"Yeah…she's my best friend."
"Cho?"
"Yeah?"
"Since –since Zanjoe doesn't like –I mean if it's possible –could we be…you know…" he stuttered.
"What?" I giggled.
"Cho –uh…I know it's a bit soon, but there's going to be a dance, for Valentine's, in a month. I was wondering if –if I could be your escort."
"That's a month away, what if you had a change of heart by that time?"
"I won't, and I was kind of going to ask you that if… I could –I mean you could, or if you would go…" he sighed again.
"Draco, what is it?"
"Cho, would you go out with me?"
I was breath-taken. I wanted someone to ask that question a long time ago, but I didn't realize that it would be Draco. He took a small heart shaped box from his pocket. He opened it and revealed a heart pendant. He then put it around my neck. I didn't resist. He, then, unbuttoned the top of his shirt to show his pendant. It was rectangle with a heart cut in the middle. The same size and shape as the one he had just given me.
"Cho, I just gave you my heart."
He took my hand and placed it on his chest.
"Cho, this sounds absurd, but I'm not complete without you." He looked as if he were about to cry, "Cho, I love you. I've waited quite some time to say that, but it's true."
"Draco…"I was exasperated.
"Cho, I accidentally fell in love with you. I told myself that I was insane for doing so. I kept reminding myself that you were Cho Chang, Ms. Popular. She'll never notice a guy like you. She's in Ravenclaw, you're in Slytherin! But my heart insisted, no matter how much my mind insisted that the idea was insane. Cho, I really am in love with you."
"Draco, h –how about Pansy, your dad, my parents? Will they approve? Will anybody?"
"Cho, I love you and for me, that's all the matters. I don't care what others may do to me, or what they say. If you don't feel that way, I'm sorry," he hung his head, "but that's how much I love you."
I smiled and I tilted his chin upwards, "Draco, I know I've cared for this one person, but I didn't notice it was you all along. Zanjoe was just in the way. I love you, too."
He sweetly slanted his mouth over mine. My arms crept up his neck. The kiss was long and thorough. Luckily I had been sitting on a bed, if I not I would be desperately hanging on Draco. I gave a small shocked moan when his tongue breached the barrier of my lips. He then deepened the quality of our kiss. My heart was pounding hard enough to break through my ribs. Slowly we drew apart. I leaned my head on his shoulder. As I looked into his gorgeous gray eyes, I got myself lost.
"So, I should I take that as a yes?" he was breathing deeply.
So was I, "It was a yes."
He was about to lean for another kiss, but Madame Pompfrey entered the room. She didn't notice me as I leaned back to my pillow.
"Cho," she called, "I hope you're up. It's time for your medicine."
"There's medicine for a Crucio?" Draco asked innocently.
"Yes, Mr. Malfoy," she replied. "If not then Ms. Chang won't be able to get out of bed by this afternoon. By the way, you can go."
He stood up.
"First period is going to begin in half an hour, and you're not even dressed properly. Professor McGonnagal wouldn't be so pleased."
"Oh, right, sorry ma'am." He turned to leave.
"Bye Draco," I called as he left the room.
Madame Pompfrey gave me a glass full of something disgusting. "Ms. Chang, you have wonderful friends."
"Yeah," I agreed.
"Its surprising how many different kinds you have. Ms. Edgecombe, Mr. Potter, and surprisingly, Mr. Malfoy."
"Yeah, he's great."
"Yes, I must say so, he's the first of all Malfoys to help anybody out of his house. Malfoys wouldn't even help somebody if they were in the brink of death."
"Really?" I wondered.
"Yes, he's the first generation. I should say so, since I have been here in Hogwarts for quite some time."
"Well, he really is something special."
"He truly is, Ms. Chang, he truly is…"
"A good friend,"
[Old] A/N: OMG, OMG, OMG! Draco and Cho are going out? Zanjoe and Marietta do, too. But this is too much of a dream! We all know that dreams always have an end, right? I'm sorry if Draco didn't sound like Draco in this chapter, but I just needed to make him soft-hearted for this chapter. Don't worry his cold self will return! Mwuahahaha, or not. o.O Please continue to read….We're almost done! Also please review.
