Cho tries to connect with Harry several times, possibly to ask about Cedric's final minutes. The first time, on the Hogwarts Express, she is thwarted by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Neville Longbottom|Neville]]'s ''Mimbulus Mimbletonia'', which has just coated Harry's compartment with stinksap. The second time, she is driven away by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ron Weasley|Ron]], who accuses her of supporting a particular Quidditch team only because it is trendy. Finally, the two meet in the Owlery, when Harry is sending a message to [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Sirius Black|Sirius]]. Harry is heartened when she supports him over an unjust accusation by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Argus Filch|Filch]].
 
When [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Hermione Granger|Hermione]] convinces Harry to secretly teach real [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Defence Against the Dark Arts|Defence Against the Dark Arts]] to students, as opposed to the nonsense [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Dolores Umbridge|Professor Umbridge]] is offering, Harry is stunned by how many want to study with him, includingbut is heartened, and chooses to continue the group, largely because it includes Cho. After the initial meeting of the group, later called [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Dumbledore's initialArmy|Dumbledore's meetingArmy]], in the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Hog's Head Inn|Hog's Head]], Cho seems to want to stay and have a word with Harry, but her friend is impatient to leave. Hermione then comments that Cho could scarcely take her eyes off Harry all the time she was there, and Harry suddenly realizes just how beautiful [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Hogsmeade|Hogsmeade]] is.
 
During Harry's classes in the Room of Requirement, Cho gets rather flustered whenever Harry is around, messing up a simple [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Expelliarmus|Disarming jinx]] three times in a row. In the last lesson before Christmas break, Harry finds that [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Dobby|Dobby]] has decorated the room with streamers, bobbles, and mistletoe. He manages to get the more embarrassing decorations removed, but there are still streamers and some mistletoe up when class starts. After class, Cho remains behind to have a few words about Cedric; she manages to maneuver herself and Harry under the mistletoe, and they kiss. Harry, afterwardslater, in conversation with Ron and Hermione, says that it was very wet, because she had been crying; Hermione says Cho does that often, and inquires about how Harry behaved. Harry's attempts to comfort Cho receives lukewarm approval from Hermione.
 
When there is a Hogsmeade weekend on 14 February, Cho drops a few hints. Harry finally clues in and invites her to go. She accepts, and suggests Madam Puddifoot's tea shop as a good place to spend some time. Harry takes Cho to Madam Puddifoot's, but then is extremely disconcerted to find that it is full of snogging couples, deeply entangled in each other, and particularly dismayed to find that the only open table is adjacent to one occupied by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Roger Davies|Roger Davies]], a handsome Ravenclaw student cut from the same mold as Cedric. Harry's dismay and confusion is increased by Cho's revelation that Roger had earlier asked Cho out; we believe that Cho had mentioned this either to make Harry jealous, or to try to let Harry know that she felt he was better than Roger somehow, but it has the wrong effect, making Harry feel even more inadequate in the face of the competition he is getting for Cho's favours. In the face of this discomfort, and Cho's insistence that Harry tell her more about how Cedric died, Harry is less than tactful when he has to excuse himself for a promised meeting with Hermione. Cho, incensed, storms off.

Cho, hurt, then does not pay any attention to Harry at dinner, or over the next few days. Hermione tells Harry that he was a bit tactless, making it sound as if he was going from Cho to another girl. Harry wonders at this, and Hermione explains that he should have made it sound as though he was reluctant to go see Hermione, but he had promised, and he would really like Cho to come too... Harry doesn't understand why he has to insult Hermione to compliment Cho.
 
However, when the interview with Harry appears in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/The Quibbler|''The Quibbler'']], an apparently repentant Cho comes up to Harry in the hall as he leaves [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Transfiguration|Transfiguration]], tells him that the interview was a really brave thing for him to do, and kisses him on the cheek before hurrying away again.
 
Their reconciliation does not last long, however. The next meeting of Dumbledore's Army is rudely interrupted by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Dobby|Dobby]], with news that Umbridge has been told about the DA and is sending the Inquisitorial Squad to capture its members. It turns out that Dumbledore's Army was betrayed by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Marietta Edgecombe|Marietta Edgecombe]], Cho's friend. After Dumbledore's departure, the next time Harry and Cho meet, Cho attempts to defend Marietta's actions, and says that Hermione's placing a jinx on that piece of parchment they had signed was really sneaky; Harry responds that it was not sneaky, it was brilliant. Cho and Harry stalk off in their separate directions, and do not speak again in this book.
 
On the Hogwarts Express headed back to London, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ginny Weasley|Ginny]] tells Harry that Cho was now going out with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Michael Corner|Michael Corner]]. [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ron Weasley|Ron]] is amazed at this, as he had thought Ginny was going out with Michael. Ginny says that he was upset that Gryffindor had won the final Quidditch match over Ravenclaw, and got all sulky, so Ginny had ditched him and he had run off to comfort Cho. Harry finds that he is not at all upset by this revelation.

Cho returns to Hogwarts for the final battle against Voldemort after receiving a message from [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Neville Longbottom|Neville Longbottom]] via the fake galleons Hermione charmed for D.A.Dumbledore's Army communications. She offers to take Harry to Ravenclaw Tower to show him a replica of Ravenclaw's lost diadem (a possible Horcrux) but is thwarted by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/CharactersMagic/Ginny WeasleyHorcrux|Horcrux]]) but is thwarted by Ginny Weasley]], who volunteers [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Luna Lovegood|Luna Lovegood]] in Cho's stead. Cho seems mildly disappointed by this.
 
== Notable Consequences ==
 
Harry's relationship with Cho is his first real exploration of this sort of relationship, and features his first kiss, which no doubt will remain special to him despite being flavoured heavily with Cho's tears for Cedric. Luckily for him, it seems to have no lasting negative effect; Harry does not mourn his loss when she moves on.
 
Cho and Harry's relationship seems to show only that Harry is not yet really ready for a relationship, especially not one as demanding as this. However, it is preparation for his later relationships. For details on that, see [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Harry Potter|Harry's Relationship article]].

Why bring Cho into the story at all? The fact is that, as we enter the fourth book, Harry is maturing; he is getting to be of an age where boys start noticing girls (and vice versa). As such, it is important for him to have a love interest, but possibly it is too early for him to be connecting with Ginny, who is the girl he will eventually marry. At the risk of seeming coarse, the girl that Harry needs at this point is one who will put him off the whole idea of romance for a while, so that he will not get too distracted from his quest in the next few books. With the death of Cedric in Harry's presence, we have a ready-made candidate in Cedric's girlfriend. It is certain that at the age of sixteen, Cho will be unready to move on after Cedric's death; she will idolize her dead hero, and will want to try to keep his memory alive. Hermione very accurately limns the feelings Cho is having, after the Christmas meeting of Dumbledore's Army. Among other things, she still feels as though she might be disloyal to Cedric because she is going out with Harry. One thing HermineHermione does not mention, because Harry has not mentioned it to her, is Cho's continual pestering of Harry for details about Cedric. We can see that this is an attempt by Cho to stay close to Cedric, to learn more about him, perhaps as a way to offset the guilt she feels about going out with his competitor. Of course, Harry is deeply disturbed by this concentration on Cedric, in part because of his role in Cedric's death, and in part because he has always felt inadequate compared to Cedric. Cho's dwelling on Cedric and his abilities deems to be pointing up Harry's shortcomings, and the suggestion that there is still competition for Cho's affections, in the form of Roger Davies, disquiets Harry still further. Cho is thus ideally placed to be set aside after one final climactic spat, and Harry can move on with no regrets.
