Ron (has crush on) Hermione (has crush on) Harry (has crush on) Cho.

Me again:
Melissa has pretty much voiced my thoughts there. I'm also putting store on 
what JKR is quoted as saying at an interview (I forget which but I read it
on here in the last 36 hours): "People are in love with the wrong people at 
the moment" (paraphrased).

I think Ron is 'wrongly' leaning to Hermione and Harry 'wrongly' to Cho. 
Maybe even Krum 'wrongly' to Hermione. I think, given the centrality of the 
two main characters that we are looking at an (eventual) Harry and Hermione 
bonding. I hope something develops in OoP, but if it does it will be very 
much a love born in warfare and turmoil so a pretty firmly founded one and 
not anything soppy. Hermione isn't the soppy type anyway ;)

Was there not also a hug between H/Hr at the end of CoS, or am I thinking 
of the film version?

Just my 2 knuts (probably if it were wizard talk, 3 knuts).

Regards
Martin
