Cedric Diggory


(Y/n) POV

"Daaad!! How much longer till we get there again!?" I asked for like the 10th time this minute. 

"We're nearly there, sweetheart. Now be patient and shut up, will you?" my dad replied, getting fed up with me. Dad and I were going to the Quidditch World Cup with the Weasleys and The Diggorys. I was really excited to see the Weasleys, considering the twins were my best friends but as for the Diggorys... You could say I wasn't really fond of seeing Pretty Boy Diggory, who was most commonly known as the school heartthrob. Oh well, Joy! *note the sarcasm*

Soon, like my dad said, I could see both the Weasleys and the Diggorys engaged in a conversation. Oh, I can see Harry and Hermione too. Ron must have invited them, obviously. As I came closer, the twins immediately noticed me and ran over, giving me a bone crashing hug. I accepted the hug gladly and smiled at them. My smile soon faded when I saw Diggory giving me a charming gin. I scoffed at him and turned to the twins and said, "How was your summer?"

"It was fantastic," George said and both of them started to tell me about the prank they did to Harry's muggle cousin this morning.

 I laughed at their prank and went to my dad when he motioned me over. "(y/n), this is Amos Diggory. Amos, this is my daughter, (y/n)," he said as I shook my hand with Mr. Diggory's and said, "Pleased to meet you, sir."

"Pleased to meet you too, (y/n). This is my boy, Cedric," he said. "Hey (y/n)," Cedric said.

"Hi Cedric," I said and smiled fakely at him. Yes, he might be attractive but honestly, I don't see why nearly every girl at Hogwarts needs to fall head over heels for him. I quickly excused myself from him and came back to the Weasley twins, not wanting to spend any second more with him. 

"(Y/n), Diggory's been staring at you for a long time now," George said as Fred continued saying, "Ooh~ Looks like Diggory's got a crush!" I rolled my eyes at them but nevertheless turned around to see Diggory staring at me. He smiled and my cheeks deceived me by turning a pink shade.

Our parents wanted to set off quickly so, they led us to the portkey. I groaned knowing I'd just land on my back like always. Sure enough, I did land on my back, so I let out a groan. Fortunately for me, a hand helped me up and I looked at the person, unfortunately to stare into his grey eyes. I just cleared my throat, mumbled a thanks to him and went next to Harry. Harry had become a brother to me, as we both had lost a parent or both. I had lost my mother when I was a year old and just like Harry's parents, my mother was murdered by Voldemort (no, I'm not scared of saying his name) as she was part of the Order. "So... Harry, how have you been?"

"I've been doing great! You should have seen Dudley when he ate that candy Fred and George invented," He said grinning.

"Oh, how I wish I did!" I said back to him. We kept talking till we had reached the 'Weezly' tent as it had said and bid our goodbyes. Dad and I had a different tent, and although the walk wasn't as long as the one to the portkey, it was hard to search as there was more than millions of people. We eventually found our tents and the first thing I did was jump into the bed and fall into a long dreamless sleep. 

------------------------------------------

The World Cup was amazing. I supported Ireland and they had won although Krum caught the snitch, so I was blasting my head out by celebrating their victory

. However, my celebration was only short lived when my father came into our tent and said, "(y/n), quick, there are death eaters everywhere! Come on, we've got to go!"

 He got hold of my hand and started pulling, when suddenly his grip loosened and I got squashed by the frightened people. "Dad!!" I called out but due to the noise, he hadn't noticed that he had lost hold of me and was pulling another innocent kid with him.

I pushed out of the way and started panicking not knowing what to do when I spotted Cedric and shouted, "Diggory!! Cedric! I'm over here!" 

Cedric who noticed me immediately ran to me and said, "I've been searching for you nearly everywhere. Your dad's going bonkers because he lost hold of you."


"Well, I'm here now, aren't i? Let's quickly go now! I don't wanna stay in this lace any longer!" I told him. We soon started running together when I spotted the others.


"Come on, I see them!" I say to Cedric as I held his hand and pulled me with him.

 My father, more than relieved to see me, enclosed me in a very tight bone crashing hug. "Oh, (y/n), I thought I lost you," he said, still not letting go of me.


"Dad, I'm not going anywhere," I replied and he let go of me and we both smiled at each other. 

I turned to Cedric who was with his father and said, "Thanks for coming after me, Cedric."


"You're welcome, (y/n)," he replied back, smiling to me.

---------------------------------------

Everyone had forgotten about the incident at the World Cup as soon as Dumbledore announced the triwizard tournament. The students were bustling with excitement as they talked about who were going to enter and how the foreign schools were going to come here. It was a fiasco.

Unfortunately, for me and the twins, there was an age limit, so we couldn't enter. The twins were thinking of aging their selves up but I knew it wasn't gonna work. I decided not to tell them though, as I was quite excited to see what would happen.

Soon enough, the other schools had come and I was excited to see who would put their name in the goblet. What I wasn't excited to see was that nearly all the boys in Hogwarts were drooling over the Beauxbaton girls. I was beyond disgusted, those girls and their veela powers.

I was heading my way to see the students entering their names when Fred and George came to my side. "We did it!" Fred said, holding a small vile of aging potion. George grinned and I went with them, more than excited to see what would happen to them.

 I spotted Hermione and sat by her when she said, "It won't work~" in a sing song voice.

Fred and George came to her and said, "And why is that?"

"You see that line over there," she said pointing at the line encircling the Goblet, "Dumbledore drew it himself. A great wizard like Dumbledore wouldn't obviously get fooled by your aging potion." I nodded my head in agreement but Fred and George, too oblivious to admit the truth went up to the Goblet, drank the potion and jumped in.

I stayed silent when nothing happened when suddenly the twins went flying out of the circle. I started laughing hysterically when I saw their faces. They were growing beards! "Well, I did warn you," a voice said I looked to the person, noticing it was Dumbledore. The twins went to the hospital wing together but, I didn't bother helping them as I wanted to see who else would put their names in.

Victor Krum came in next and the laughter surrounding me died. Of course, he'd put his name, he's Victor Krum. Show off. I noticed something interesting when he stared at Hermione. "Hermione," I nudge her in the side, "Krum's looking at you."


Hermione looked at him, turned a very bright red colour and then said, "So what? Oh look, your lover boy's here!" I look up to see who my 'lover boy' was when I noticed Cedric putting his name in. 

However, I did catch the small wink he sent my way before doing so. I blushed a little before saying, "Well, this is going to be interesting."

------------------------------------------

The first task was over and both Harry and Victor had come first. Cedric came second and he burned his face a bit. The girl beside me (I don't know what her name is), shouted, "Oh my god, "His beautiful face is going to be damaged!" that I nearly choked on my own laughter. The Yule bull was announced a few days ago and I groaned thinking about it. Did I ever tell you how much I hated dancing and wearing heels? Well, I despise it!

Most of the girl at Hogwarts had a sate by now, but i didn't. To be honest, I had been asked twice, by a Hufflepuff and surprisingly, a Slytherin but I kindly rejected them. Well, I couldn't go with a person I didn't even know, right? It would be way too awkward if I did. I sat down beside the twins in the Gryffindor common room, listening to what they were talking about. Apparently, Fred was teasing Ron about not having a date when Ron asked, "Who're you going with, then?"

"Angelina," Fred replied promptly, without a trace of embarrassment.

"What?" said Ron, taken aback. "You've already asked her?"

"Good point," said Fred. He turned his head and called across the common room, "Oi! Angelina!"

Angelina, who had been chatting with Alicia Spinnet near the fire, looked over at him.
"What?" She called back.

"Want to come to the ball with me?"

Angelina gave Fred a sort of appraising look. "All right, then," she said, and she turned back to Alicia and carried on chatting with a bit of a grin on her face.

"There you go," said Fred to Harry and Ron, "piece of cake."

George then nudged me by the side and whispered quietly, "Are you going with anyone to the ball?"

 I shook my head and replied a know when he asked, "Would you like to go with me then? I mean, as friends?"


"Sure," I replied back to him, smiling at him and then continuing the day chatting and having fun with my friends.


------------------------------

I was in the ball having the best time of my life with George. He was extremely funny and enjoyable to be around that I enjoyed most of my time in the ball. I wore a simple yet elegant red dress and was not bothered on wearing heels so, I wore some white sneakers instead. I mean, my dress was pretty long so, it's not as if anyone's gonna notice, right? After a few minutes of dancing, George excused himself to get some drinks when Cedric grabbed my hand and started dancing with me.

"Really, couldn't you steal some other girl away to dance with you, Ced," I said, rolling my eyes at him.

 He grinned sheepishly and said, "Why would I, when you're the most beautiful here?" I blushed slightly and kept dancing with him. To be honest, he wasn't that bad after all. I actually enjoyed my time dancing with him too. 

My smile soon faded when I saw Cho looking at me and him. "Cedric, your date's staring daggers at me," I told him.

"Ignore her," he said and we stopped dancing after a while.

 I was going to go when Cedric pulled my hand making me stumble into him. "Wait (y/n), I want to tell you something before you go!"

I nodded my head, asking him to continue when he took a deep breathe. "Look (y/n), I didn't actually want to come with Cho. We just came as friends. The girl I wanted to actually come with was you..." He said and then stared me in the eyes. I was shocked slightly but told him to continue. "(y/n), I think I like you." He said confidently.

 I gasped and it was silent for a few seconds before he spoke, "I'm sorry, I should've confessed. Great, now, I ruined our friendship!" He started to go away when I pulled his hand and before I knew what I was doing, my lips were on his.

 After a few minutes, I pulled away from him and said, "I like you too, Ced." He smiled at me and then said, "Will you be my girlfriend?" 

I nodded at him and he asked me for another dance. We ignored everyone's reactions around us and pretended as if it was our own little world while we danced. After all, Cedric Diggory was now my boyfriend.
