Ch. 8

I move around her and I start to walk away, then I turn around. I just want to be her friend, and I don't want her to hate me.

"Cho...'' I say and she looks at me "I'm sorry."

She looks at me in disbelif "For what?"

"What happen between us, I never wanted to hurt you."

"Was there another girl when, we had what we had?"

"No, Cho there wasn't, Hermione and me we are just really good friends. She is like my sister, I'm sorry if you thought there was something going on there but there wasn't.''

"I'm sorry to Harry, I shouldn't have jumpped to conclusions, your a great guy Harry, but to be honest I don't think we would have worked out."

I smile and agree in my head, yeah we had alot in common but we were just too diffrent. I look up at her a smile, I hold my hand out to her.

"Friends?"

She grabs my hand, and shakes it "Friends.'' she agrees with a smile.

I turn away and walk back to the school, I don't think me and her will ever be the greatest of friends but at least we don't hate each other. I get to Ginny's class, she is walking out of class and Dean is following her

"Come on Ginny, just give me another chance."

"No, Dean you had your shot and you lost."

I come up to Ginny and grab her hand "Everything ok love?"

She looks at me a smiles, then gives me a kiss "Everything is fine, hows Rosie?"

"I don't know, I haven't seen her since we last left her. Shall we go see her?"

"Yeah.'' she looks over at Dean and smiles "Bye Dean."

We walk away, she is smiling and laughing. I laugh with her, but I don't know what I am laughing at. She looks at me and smiles even more. I reach over and grab her bag from her, and put it on my shoulder. We are walking past a connoer, I pull her to the side. I turn her to face me, I bend down and give her a kiss. She wraps her hand around my neck and burries her hands into my hair. I drop her bag and my arms wrap around her waist, I pull her closer to me, the kiss deepens. She pulls away, we are both breathing heavily. I place my forehead against hers and we look into each others eyes and smile..

"I love you." I whisper

I pick up her bag and we continue to the Hospital Wing, she looks at me and smiles

"What was that for?"

"What was what for?"

"That back there.''

"Nothing, I just wanted to kiss you. So what was up with Dean?"

She sighs and shakes her head in frustration "He wants to go back out with me, even though he knows we are dating. He says that I'm just dating you because your the chosen one. I told him, that I am not dating you just because you are the chosen one, I am dating you because I love you. He just doesn't seem to get it."

"Ahh, well I ran into Cho today, we talked."

"About what?"

"I told her I was sorry for what happen between me and her. That I never wanted to hurt her, and that I still want to be friends."

"What did she say?"

"She said that she is sorry too for what happen, but if she doesn't think we would have worked out and that we can be friends."

She noddes her head, we get to the Hospital Wing and I open the door for Ginny. I see Rosie she is sleeping, I go over to her bed and sit on the side, Ginny sits on her other side. I lay down next to Rosie, her head falls onto my shoulder. I start to smooth her hair down and I hum a little song. I use to do this for her at home, when she had a nightmare, she would come into my room and lay down with me, and I rub her head and hum her to sleep then take her back to her room. Also when she was sick or upset, I just go up to her room, and lay down with her and we watch movies and she would always fall alseep, Mum says that is my big brother instincts. Ginny looks at me a smiles.

"You will deffently make a great dad one day." she says

"You'll make a great mum one day.'' I tell her and smile. I look back down at Rosie's arm, it's no longer black and blue, it has the yellow tint. It look like it hurts, I take a deep breath, I hate that this happen to her. I wiggle out from under her head and sit up. Her arm falls and hits the bed, she winces. I carefully take her arm and place it back onto her side, I go over a grab Ginny's hand and nodded to the door for us to leave. We move to the door once we get out into the hall way. A tear falls down my eye. Ginny wipes it away and chuckles

"What's wrong?"

"I just don't like seeing her in pain."

"I know, but she will be okay, lets get back to the common room."

We get back to the common room and I look over at the notice board, crap I forgot to put the sign up for the try outs. I go up to my room and get the paper and put it up. Before I can even get it up everyone is crowding around the board. I go and sit on the couch and I am just looking at the fire, thinking of all that has happen today. It seems like it is going to be another eventful year, then I laugh why is it that I can never have a normal school year. My toughts turn back to Rosie, I think of the day she was born. Dad came and picked me up from the babysitters, before we eneter the room he made a banquet of Stargazer Lilies for Mum (Cause those are her favortie type of flowers/lilies) and a banquet of Roses for my new little sister. When we went into the room, he went over to mum and said "A dozen lilies for my Lily.'' and showed them to her. Then he pulled out the doezen of roses and said "A dozen roses for my Rose." Mum looked up at him and smile. They couldn't decied what name they wanted to name her, it was between Rosemarie and another flower name. I make a banquet of roses and go up to Rosie, she is up and talking to Lucus. She looks at me and once I get to the front of her bed, she squeals with delight

"You remeber!" she yells

"Of course I did.'' I laugh Lucas looks between me and Rosie. Rosie looks over at him and smiles

"Every time, I was sick or I got hurt mummy would call up daddy and tell him and he would bring me home a dozen red roses."

I put them in a vase by her table, and give her a kiss "I just wanted to bring these too you. I am going to go down to dinner, then do what I have to do tonight."

"Alright, thank you Harry."

I smile and make my way to the great hall, I go and sit down by Ginny. She looks at me

"You ready for this weekend?"

"Oh yeah, I have know idea how to run try-outs. You still going to try out?"

"Of course, Ron wants to try out for keeper." she gives a weak smile

"He is not that bad, and I won't put him on the team unless he earns it. Same goes for you!"

She laughs and nudges me, Hermione and Ron come in. I give them a questioning look

"We were in the library, Ron ask for help with a project." Hermione sighs

"Thanks a bunch Hermione.'' says Ron

"Anytime." she says with a force smile.

I look over at Ginny and sigh. I just want to smack him up the head sometimes and tell him to ask Hermione out already. He just hasn't been getting the hints, but to be fair I didn't get the hints from Ginny fast either. I am eating rather slowly cause I don't want to go to detention, but I can't put it off forever. I get done eating and give Ginny a small kiss and tell her I will meet her up in the common room when I am down with Slughorn. I get to the potions room and knock on the door.

"Come in Harry!"

"Sorry, I'm late proffesor."

"It's alright, you don't have that much to do tonight."

"What do you want me to do?"

"Clean out the store cupboard, and put it all back. Apparently Proffesor Snape didn't like keeping it very clean. Oh you will also have to tell me the number of bottles of what we have. I'll write them down, then tell the headmaster what I will be needing."

"Sounds good sir."

"Shall we get started then?"

"Why not.''

"Ah don't be so gloom Harry."

I give a little smile and move to the store cupboard. We don't due much talking besides me telling what he has and how much he has of it. Then he repeats it back to me and I say 'yup' for that's correct or 'nope' then tell him what I said. It takes about two hours, to get it all done.

"Thank you Harry for your help. See you in class.''

"Yes, sir.''

I walk back to the common room, I see Draco walking around. I think to myself that he is probably just getting done with his and going back to his room. I get up to the common room, Ginny is sitting on the couch, I come over a lay my head on her lap and breath a sigh of relief. She laughs and sits back and start combing my hair. She bends down and gives me a kiss. I smile at her and think how lucky I am.
