cedric amos diggory (part one)

a/n: to jo the wise <3, sorry it's taken me so long LMAO.

"you are the one for me dear.", said your lover.

at this point both of you had been dating for two years. two teenagers madly in love; the epitome of young love. can describe you both.

it felt as though nothing mattered but him.

"you are the one for me too ced.", you replied back.

the two of you are inseparable; if you see one, you see the other.

you had both met on the hogwarts express when you both sat in the same compartment. he thought you were the most beautiful girl he had ever laid eyes upon.

"my name is cedric. cedric diggory. it's nice to meet you.", he said, giving his hand for you to shake.

you smiled at the boy, grateful he had started a conversation with you. being muggleborn was a challenge to say the least. you were one step behind those who had grown up in the wizarding world. every first for you was something others had already done. others wouldn't be able to share the same feeling of excitement.

but could you have really blamed yourself?

your whole life you had been raised as an average muggle, having no clue that an entire other world existed. you knew nobody; it was terrifying being alone.

but cedric was in a way the light in darkness .

it made it less terrifying.

you shook his hand and introduced yourself, " hi. it's nice to meet you too cedric. my name is y/n y/l/n".

"you're muggleborn aren't you?", blurted cedric.

you knew of the prejudice against muggleborns like yourself. how you had "dirty blood" and did not deserve to be in the wizarding world. all you could do was look away. to be quite frank you were embarrassed you weren't raised like other children that had magical powers.

"i- i didn't mean it like that. i'm not like them. it's just that i've never heard of your family before. it's a small world, so you kind of know everyone around here.", he said.

the boy meant no harm and you could really tell.

it is one of those things you've loved about him all these years, he cares and he truly does.

"yes, i am muggleborn, my parents are indeed muggles. a few months ago i didn't even believe magic existed! you see muggles are taught that magic isn't real, so i only thought of it as a mere fairytale. to my shock when professor sprout came to my house to explain to me that i indeed had magical powers. it's been a bit hard adjusting. but hopefully it gets better", you explained.

you hadn't been paying attention to the boy, once you did face him it felt a tad bit embarrassing. here you were rambling to a boy you had just met a few minutes ago.

but there he was staring at you with a smile, happily listening to your rambling.

you couldn't help but blush a bit. the fact that he didn't mind it at all made you feel all warm and fuzzy. he made you feel valued and safe. from then on you knew the both of you would never leave each others parts. either just friends or more than friends you were content with that. you never wanted to let him go.

and that is how it was for the first few years at hogwarts. the both of you were together all the time. either just walking throughout the school after hours or heading to the black lake to chat. you just had to be together, for without one another it felt incomplete.

people change, so do emotions,thoughts, and feelings.

you and cedric weren't immune to the change.

by fourth year things had changed. suddenly the thought of cedric made you so nervous. the thought of you and him slow dancing in the rain, was so ridiculous, but a thought you desired most to happen. he,unbeknownst to you, felt the same. he always thought you were beautiful, but he was catching himself desiring you to himself. the thought of you being with someone else made him so upset. everyone by now already knew you and cedric had something going on whether the two of you knew or didn't. you just realizing and coming to terms with the fact that these feelings actually existed.

it may have been so bloody obvious to others, but to the two of you were oblivious to the fact. rather terrified of rejection from the other.

but nonetheless, he asked you out.

everything was falling into place. everything was perfect. the two of you got close, if even possible, and were falling deeply in love with each other.

in the current time, the two of you are in sixth year. the headmaster had just announced the triwizard tournament. it is something that intrigues you, but would never dream of actually participating in.

your friends on the other hand, can't seem to shut up about it.

the incentive doesn't outweigh the risk. they don't seem to comprehend that.

yes, they have a chance of winning a bit of money and maybe eternal glory, but is it really worth it?

no.

but to your shock, cedric had a desire to put his name into the goblet.

"are you mad cedric?!", you said.

"of course i'm not mad! this could be a great opportunity for me! please try and understand that. i promise i'll be careful. i promise i won't get hurt. when have i ever broken a promise y/n? why can't you trust me", he said.

"and how do you know you won't possibly die? cedric, this is different! this is you playing with fire. you have too much to lose, why can't you understand! i trust you, i love you, but i cannot understand why you would want to risk everything you have for some stupid tournament! death isn't our friend. death is death! and it can happen at any time, so why would you willingly put yourself on the brink of death?", you told the boy.

arguments with cedric were rare. the both of you hated every second of it. you always try to avoid it, but you just couldn't let this go. your lover willingly putting himself in danger, just for some stupid tournament. it's ridiculous.

the thought of losing him is painful; without him you would feel empty.

you faced your back towards him. you needed to think. you just couldn't understand.

lost in your thoughts, you felt his arms wrap around your waist.

you loved everything about him.

he truly is your soulmate.

you couldn't help but tear up a bit.

"i promise i'll be careful. because i love you too much to leave you here. i know you're afraid, but as long as you are by my side i'll be safe.", he whispered in your ear.

he always knows when to comfort you. it's quite an amazing gift.

you turned around and hugged him. you held on to him as hard as you possibly could. your face buried in his head silently sobbing, "you promise?" you quietly said.

"i promise", he said.

a few days had passed since the "incident". you still weren't too happy, but you're willing to support him.

you didn't want to be there to witness him putting his name in the goblet, which made him a bit upset. but understood why. seeing him put his name in the goblet would make the fact real. that there was a chance of him being chosen.

a/n: it isn't finished yet, but i'll try and get it done as soon as i can. i feel guilty for not posting LMAO. it might change, i'm not sure yet. please tell me what you think. either on here or a pm! ALSO sorry if like the tense changes i'm working on it. also, decided what you want to happen because i cannot seem to pick. thank you for reading :))) also i suck at like intimate moments pls i don't know how to write it in a way it's good.  ALSO IM SO SORRY IF ITS KINDA EMBARRASSING. LIKE THE FIGHT SCENE? I'M GOING TO HAVE TO CHANGE IT. ITS KINDA EMBARRASSING.
