Willow || Cedric Diggory

Bad Luck?

"Ugh... I'm so tired." Rey plopped down onto the sofa in exasperation.

Not a single thing that he have done could indicate any sorts of indolence. He have posted the meeting poster for his duelling club, he have done Snape assignments -which was 2 scrolls long-, and not to mention the assignment from Professor Trelawney. All he wanted now was a good rest... or perhaps, an alone time with his boyfriend. Yeah... the latter would be nice.

'Ced...' He wistlully called his boyfriend, as he burried his face into one of the pillows. It didn't take another second for his boyfriend to reply.

'Yes?' 

'Would you like to go out, somewhere?' Rey sighed, as he didn't have any idea to where they should go.

'Out?' Rey didn't need to see Cedric right now, as he could already picture his boyfriend tilting his head adorably. Like a cute little puppy.

'Yes, out.' Rey involuntarily smiled.

'Out! Out! Out!' The Hufflepuff exclaimed elatedly before going silent. Such a cutie... How Cedric behaved sometimes made the Hufflepuff looked not only a golden boy, but also a golden retriever boy. All adorable and cute. He just hoped that Cedric won't crashed into anyone on the way to the Gryffindor Tower.

After a few more seconds of laying down, Rey remembered that his outfit was still far from presentable. Who in the right mind would look at him and smile? Considering the fact that he currently looked like a walking dead person that happened to be wearing a crusty hoodie and a pair of shorts. He definitely could use some quick outfit changes. 

Rey quickly dashed up the stairs into his room, subsequently diving into his clothing trunk. He contemplated what outfit should he put on for a second, before deciding on a pair of good trousers and the -holy- white jumper that Cedric gave him. 

The sleeves fell well over his fingertips, and the jumper itself laid all the way down to his knees. Even though the jumper seemed to be overbearing on his small frame, Rey did not pay much of a mind on it. He kept reminding himself that he was 5'4 now. 5'4! That was definitely an improvement from last year's 5'2. And now... he have to contemplate whether to tuck in the excess or not.

"Going somewhere?" Bem shocked him. He was to busy staring at the white jumper that he have already put on, that he didn't realize his roommate's presence.

"Well yes, somewhere." Rey shot an honest smile, before reaching into his trunk again.

He briefly noticed his diary peaking from inside his clothing trunk and took it out. It have been ages since he wrote on that diary, and probably the content was just as embarassing as a 11-13 year old boy can muster. So saving himself from further mortification, he put it back into the trunk and reminded himself to read it sometimes later. He then took his bag before slinging it onto his shoulder.

"All right then, take care. I have to feed Jingles." Ben made a beeline towards his bed and gently nudged jingles to wake her up. Jingles was a wild pet toad that Ben owned. And despite popular belief, she did not produce any kind of jingling sound.

After casting one last glance into his room, Rey headed back to the common room. It was a rather sunny, breezy, and lazy Sunday. So it was not a weird sight to spot students laze around pointlessly. Well, not for Rey though. He had to attend the spontaneous... excursion -or date- with his lovely boyfriend. What a wonderful time to be a-

"Cedric!" Rey exclaimed before running into the Hufflepuff's waiting embrace.

"Hey, little one." Cedric beamed before running his fingers through his hair repeatedly. That felt terrific. It wasn't like he got ticks or something like that, Rey just liked to be patted... by Cedric.
