Cedric Diggory x Reader (Re-Written)

Ch. 32: Parenthood

The sound of the baby crying caused Cedric to stir in bed a little.

As he was groaning, he turned to hug you, "Freddie is crying for us, honey."

His soft voice woke you, "Alright." and you slowly got out of bed and slipped your soft bathrobe on.

As you opened the door, Freddie was still crying.

"Awww, honey..." you cooed, gently rocking him in your arms.

Not wanting to stay up for long, you decided to take the baby back to your bed.

Fred continued to cry as you crawled back into bed and placed him in between you and Cedric. But his cries slowly stopped as you held him close, kissing his forehead.

"Mama and Papa are here..." you cooed. Fred's tiny hand held onto your finger. Cedric spooned you, "He's adorable."

"He looks like you." You held onto his hand, earning a chuckle from him.

 "I don't know how life could be more perfect than this..." he softly spoke. "You two are the most important people in my life. And for nothing in the world I'd rather be anywhere else."

The baby cooed and made the cutest little noises, making your heart melt.

"Hush my baby, don't you cry. Mama and Papa are here to protect you..." you softly sang to the baby.

Cedric kissed your cheek and in response you said, "In a couple years from now, I'm sure he'll find this disgusting." He let out another chuckle, "Well, he's gonna have to deal with it." and kissed your cheek again.

*Months later*

Eventually, Fred's crying late at night has eventually died down and therefore, you and Cedric were able to get more sleep.

Cedric was playing with Fred in the living room and you were making dinner.

From the view of the counter, you could see them. Seeing them together made your heart melt.

Fred had also said his first word which was 'dada' and he was learning how to walk.

"Dada!" you heard Fred shout over and over as he was slowly and clumsily walking towards Cedric, who had his arms open for him. "Yes, I'm your dada! Love me!"

Fred fell into Cedric's arms and laughed as he was being tickled.

The front door opened and your friends had all arrived.

"Hermione!" you said and rushed over to gently hug her since she was 6 months pregnant.

Ginny walked in with Harry while holding James in her arms.

"Hey James." you smiled at him and he giggled. "How's my godson doing?" you tickled the baby, earning more cute giggles.

Neville and Luna walked in together as they held their daughter who was only 6 months old.

George and Angelina walked in after, "How's my godson doing?" George smiled as he walked towards a very excited Fred.

"You guys get settled down now. Dinner is almost ready." you said as you walked back to the kitchen.

The girls all walked in to help you serve dinner as Cedric set the table.

As everyone was sitting at the table waiting for you, you couldn't help but just stand there as you saw your family and friends together.

Tears of joy started to fall down your face and you thought, "What did I do to deserve them?" as you walked over to join them.
