  When asked Harry described kissing Cho as 'wet' (he was both 
> serious and disappointed). I would not be inclined to even count

  Harry and Cho were under that mistletoe for a half and hour,

> From Harry's reaction in the common room I don't think that it was 
not "a first kiss and then some" as Becki so aptly put it. My 
thought is that their was probably twenty five minutes of Cho crying 
and talking about Cedric. Not really what Harry needed at that time.

> It does not appear that Harry was embarking on some romantic 
interlude. Hence Hermione not being worried about Cho being 
competion, when he returned to the common room.

> However I also believe that at this time Harry wouldn't recognise 
romance if it bit him on the nose.

Becki says;

I am sorry PenDragan but I have to respectfully disagree with you. 
When Harry returned 30 minutes later, and went through the whole 
interigation Hermoine asks,  "...are you going to see her again?"
Harrys thoughts are  "...Of course, she would be expecting him to 
ask her out after what had just happened..." (OoP p460, am)
If is was just one little kiss and a whole lot of sobbing, I don't 
think Harry would feel Cho would be expecting him to ask her out. 

And not to open up another can of worms,(in regards to your comment 
about Hermione not being worried about Cho and competition), but I 
do think Hermione was a bit put off by the whole encounter.  Not to 
get into "shipping", she could have been just being over protective 
of her best friend, but the way she said a few remarks, 
"Did you kiss", asked Hermoine briskly.
"Well?" he (Ron) demanded.
Harry looked from Ron's expression of mingled curiosity and hilarity 
to Hermiones' slight frown, and nodded.

Why was Hermione taking that tone when she ask about if they kissed 
and why would she be frowning? 

I do want to clear up my wording of "first kiss and then 
some", I was not implying that there was anything else but kissing 
going on, just more that 1 first kiss.

Becki, a hopeless romantic.
