Joj:I think Cho wanted to have just one real conversation about Cedric and what Harry saw and experienced the night Cedric died.  I don't think that's unreasonable.  If Harry hadn't completely avoided that (and if Cho had been more upfront, with a better approach), they could have gotten this huge stumbling block out of the way, and maybe relaxed into something. Alas, they're kids. Probably most adults wouldn't have handled that correctly.
