For me, it was definitely GoF. Prior to that I hadn't even thought
about it, apart from the obvious such as Ginny's crush on Harry,
Harry's crush on Cho etc. I also have to say that I fought against
it in GoF, because, as you've probably gleaned by now, I do think
that the evidence strongly indicates R/H and I was always more
interested in H/H. I've also always tried to avoid fan-written
stories. It's easy to get confused as to what's in the books and
what isn't and they just add an extra dimension to the confusion.
(But I do think some of Rita's are good - the only ones I've read).
