"Do you know what people will say when they find out that Lilli Snyder, the slightly crazy Ravenclaw, is going out with both of the Weasley twins!" asked Marietta, in a daze.
"Hey, I think it's pretty cool, though I am slightly jealous. You can get two guys and I can't even get one….." Cho paused. "with-with-witho-without him dying…" She had started crying.
"It's okay, Cho…I'm not supposed to tell you this, but…."
Was I going to tell her? I had caught Harry staring at a picture he had of her at the Burrow the day before school started. He had made me sware not to tell…but how would he ever find out?

"I'm celebrating, though," I protested.
"One day of celebrating, then we're going to wean you off of this. We care about your health," said Marietta jokingly.
"Alrighty then, whatever," I replied.
The three of us went down to the dungeons for double potions with the Slytherins.
Draco Malfoy was apparently mad at somebody. We could hear shouts from 100 yards away.
Apparently, he and Pansy Parkinson had a fight…
"Obliviate!" he screamed.
He doesn't want her to remember the memories of him and her, perhaps?
Pansy ducked. The spell bounced off the wall, right where her head would have been, and-
