[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: Marietta's view? Insane, I know. I didn't expect her view to be included, but it's needed! Lolz. Well, its' been a month since Cho and Draco were official, as well as Zanjoe and Marietta. I hope you like this chapter. It took me a while to conjure up! Please R & R

Disclaimer: All credit, but my Zanjoe character and this silly plot, goes to J.K. Rowling.

You Love Her

Marietta's P.O.V.

During breakfast, Cho sat with Draco. Everybody was talking about them. The couple didn't seem to notice, or care. They were one happy couple. Zanjoe and I are having difficulties at the moment. Sometimes I don't think he really cares. Sometimes I question if he really loves me.

Zanjoe dropped me off to the stairs leading to Divination. He gave me a bug and went his way.

"Zanjoe?" I called.

He turned, "Hm?"

"Pick me up for Herbology?"

"If nothing comes up…"he smiled.

I smiled back, "I love you."

He sighed and pulled me towards his lips. The kiss was quick and empty. As he eased his lips from mine he said, "You know I do."

He left running. He only had five minutes to get to class. So did I. Along with other students, I climbed the stairs to Divination. Professor Trenawley was ready to torture us with her mindless blabbing.

"Everybody, please find your proper seats. Quickly! Quickly"

I sat next to a girl named Mandy Edmeier. She was nice and liked Divination. This gave me an advantage, since I dislike this class.

"Hey Marietta, how's your morning?" she arranged her books neatly.

I dropped my bag on the ground and tossed by book on the table. "Okay, I guess…"

"That's nice, I think…" she continued to fix her supplies. "I do believe Professor will be reading our palms today. Won't that be great?"

"Yeah," I meant it, too. "I want to know why certain stuff are going on my life."

"Really? Like what?"

"It's Zanjoe. He's not the way he used to be."

"Like how?"

"Ever since Cho and Draco officially released news that they were going out, Zanjoe hasn't been the same. His kisses have no feeling. His touch, smile, the look in his eyes. They're empty, lifeless. Do you understand?"

"So, it's like he doesn't like you?"

"Kind of…"

"Oh," she bit the tip of her glasses. She always does this when she's thinking. "I kind of get it, but I really can't relate. Adrian and I have been together so long I don't notice if we fight or disagree. But you do have my sympathy."

"Thanks…" my voice trailed.

"Sure, anytime…"

"Quiet down Quiet down!" exclaimed Professor Trenawley.

The room fell silent.

"Good," Professor said. "today we will practice reading palms. This will tell you something about your partner's life. Social, financial, and maybe even love."

My face lit up.

"Okay, turn to page 156."

Pages flipped.

"Now turn to your partner and figure each other's hands. After half an hour, I will take students who want their hands read professionally."

The class began to buzz. Everyone flipped pages. A hand in another. I took Mandy's hand.

"So, what part of your future do you want read?" I asked sarcastically and added, "Un-professionally."

She giggled and turned the page, "Financial."

I turned as well. "I see, right not, you're saving a lot, but you're going to spend it soon."

"That's true. I plan on going to Italy for the summer."

"That's cool." I continued to read, "It also says, there's somebody who spends way too much on you."

"That's Adrian." She laughed.

I did, too. "Okay, now do me. Love life."

"Okay," she flipped back a few pages. She whispered, "Interesting…"

"What?"

"There's somebody who really loves you, but he doesn't notice you. I'm not sure if you do or don't notice him. I can't make it out."

"Is it Zanjoe?"

"There aren't any name translations in here, Marietta…" she said with a hint of amusement.

"Oh…oh yeah…" I sighed, "What else?"

"The one you love will die for somebody…" she looked at me and said, "but, right now, it's not you."

"Zanjoe…"

"Marietta, I'm sorry…"

"No, it's okay."

The rest of the class period was boring. I asked Professor Trenawly to read my hand, and it was just as Mandy said: Somebody loves me, but he doesn't realize it. The person I love right now won't die for me. I need to talk with Zanjoe.

Zanjoe didn't pick me up for Herbology. So I went alone. Cho and Draco were the center of attention in the greenhouse. They didn't seem to care. I sat in the corner, not daring to make myself noticeable. I didn't dare speak to her, especially after what happened about a month ago. I know Cho liked Zanjoe, but I also like him. I wanted a turn to be Ms. Popular, but, so far, it's only given me troubles. Zanjoe doesn't love me. He loves Cho. All throughout Herbology, I thought of Cho and Draco, and then of me and Zanjoe. Wondering if either couple will last. We were all against all odds.

After class, I stayed around the greenhouses, hoping to catch Zanjoe. His next class was Herbology. Surely enough, he came.

"Zanjoe!" I waved.

"Her Marietta." He ran up to me and leaned for a kiss. I turned away. "What's wrong?"

"You didn't pick me up last period."

"Oh yeah, that…" he hesitated. "Something came up…"

"Yeah?"

"Yeah." He sighed. "Sorry."

"I love you, Zanjoe."

"Marietta," he sighed again, "I do, too."

"Then say it!" I exploded.

"Say what?" he was surprised by my outrage.

"Every time I saw 'I love you' you never reply with the same words. It's like you're afraid of saying them, or something is keeping you from saying them. You always replace them with another batch of words!"

"Marietta, I care. Really I do." He exclaimed." But if we're going to fight, can we do it in private? I don't feel comfortable with the growing crowd."

There was a crowd.

"Zanjoe," I cried. "Why don't you just let the whole world that you don't love me!"

"You dare me?" he hissed. I didn't respond, but he exclaimed, "I don't love you! We're over!"

Zanjoe turned to go away. Anthony Goldstein and his friends managed to get release part of the crowd. I wish it were over, but the battle only began.

"There never was an 'us,' was there Zanjoe?" I said, barely above a whisper.

"What?" he came towards me, again.

I wiped my tears, "Zanjoe, I know you don't love me. I always have. It's because you love her."

He stared at me. His eyes were a fusion of confusion and anger.

"You've always loved her, right?"

"Who, Marietta?"

"You know very well who!"

"What…Marietta…"

"Why then? Why did you ask me out?"

His face tightened at the question.

"Why! Did you want to make fun of me? Did you want me to turn on my best friend? Did you do it for your amusement?"

"No, none of that. Never…" silent drops slid down his cheek.

"Why then," I sobbed.

"Because…I –I –I had to get her out my mind. I just had to. She didn't love me the way did. She never will. It's stupid, but I knew I had to get over her or I'll do something idiotic. I didn't intend it to go this way. I didn't intend to hurt anybody."

"But you did…"

"I know. I hurt her, too. I still remember her face when Draco spilled the news."

"I always thought she loved you."

"Yeah, but as a friend. Nothing more than that. So I had to get her off my mind. I never figured that she'd go out with that slimy git. She fell in love with him and there's this look in her eyes that I wish would fall upon me for once."

"Draco?"

"Yeah…that git." He wiped tears from his face. "I sometimes wish that I was by her side. Hugging her, telling her the answers when she doesn't know the question, and asking her for help on homework when I didn't listen in class. I sometimes imagine myself as Draco, by her side."

I continued to cry, torn inside. "I understand."

"I know, and I thank you for loving me, but you deserve somebody much greater than me. Somebody who'll love you back, or even learn to love you back."

"I wish you can."

"Marietta, I gave Cho my heart. I need to get it back before I can give it away again. Problem is I don't know how to get it back."

Anthony had successfully dissolved the crowd. I hugged Zanjoe. "I trust you, Zanjoe. You'll get it back."

"I hope so. I wish."

"Friends?" I looked up at his devastatingly beautiful eyes.

"Friends," he smiled.

[Old] A/N: I know, it's still…-confusing! Lemme break it down! Cho likes Draco. Draco likes Cho. Cho likes Zanjoe as a friend ONLY! Marietta likes Zanjoe. Zanjoe likes Marietta as a friend ONLY! Draco and Cho are going out. Zanjoe WAS going out with Marietta, but now they're ONLY friends. I'm not sure if the Draco and Cho will last. Lolz. The BIG question is: Is there going to be a Zanjoe/Cho relationship Ever? I dunno. Just read, and review every once and a while please.
