Hmmm, well I would speculate that they did this in the film because
while it reads suitably enough, that Harry and Cho waited until Oop to
kiss, it creates great dramatic tension for them to do so earlier, in
the film version. 

It also just seems more realistic for kids their ages to have shown
some sort of physical connection at an earlier point...

I'm thinking context is important. I think it would be fine if it were
an innocent "I'm sorry I didn't wait until you asked me to the dance"
peck.

We shall see.

Remember folks, a good film is more important than a slavish adaptation.
