The group started making their way to the portkey all chatting and having a good time in general. That is except Harry or so he though turns out a certain Hufflepuff was having a bad time to but didn't show it so Harry didn't pick up on it. He really wanted to talk to Cedric, get to know him. He seemed great and personally didn't care about what had happened last year. But he also didn't want to betray Fred and George so he just stuck to himself trying to focus on something else however his mind was swimming with thoughts. Until he felt a soft tap on the his shoulder that made Harry shudder but in a good way. "Hey sorry about before, I'm Cedric by the way." He said smoothly. "Nah no problem man, I'm Harry."
"I know who you are he grinned. We played against each other last year." Cedric said. "Oh yeah..." Harry said pretending he didn't remember until now. There was a bit of excruciating silence that to Harry felt like hours but in reality was most definitely a few seconds. They turned to each other and both said, "your amazing at quidditch" they both laughed however Harry stopped as he became more and more conscious that the twins were shooting knives at him with their glares behind him. He quickly excused himself from Cedric which made Cedric's head drop before he quickly rearranged his face into a jaw dropping smile as he continued to walking. Harry made his way over to the twins. "Harry what the hell was that?!" They whispered. Harry shrugged as they continued on. For the rest of the walk Harry couldn't stop staring at Cedric's dirty blonde hair that almost shimmered like gold in the summer sunlight. And the thought of his sparkling silver eyes and perfect face was the contents of Harry's mind for the rest of the journey. But he quickly put this in the back of his head as Arthur shouted, "WE ARE HERE." Everyone swiftly walked up a small hill and at the top was what looked like a manky old boot. "I ain't touching that, fucking hell I have a white top on." Harry protested to the others which made Cedric and Hermione chuckle a bit. "You'll manage." Hermione said, to which she was met with an eye role from Harry. "ALRIGHT EVERYONE GATHER ROUND!" Shouted Arthur. They formed a wired circle around the boot. "Right then to those who have never used a portkey all you have to do is place your hand upon any area of it and you will quickly be taken to your destination, I must want you it is an odd sensation and many of you feel sick. Now most important of all don't let go disastrous things could happen if you do." Amos Diggory said in a gruff tone. "Right then everyone get in close and on the count of three you will all put your hand on the portkey alright." Exclaimed Mr. Weasley (Arthur Weasley) everyone nodded and got ready. "Ok... 3... 2... 1... NOW!" Mr. Weasley shouted as everyone grasped the boot. Harry felt like he was being swung around at the speed of sound almost which did not go well with his stomach. Suddenly he felt his feet slam to the ground as he groaned in pain. It looked like everyone was in a similar position except Arthur, Amos and Cedric who seemed to have landed perfectly. "ALRIGHT EVERYONE COME ON WE NEED TO SET UP OUT TENTS HURRY WE NEED TO GET THERE EARLY." Mr. Weasley yelled enthusiastically. Everyone had got up as Harry was about to do but before he could a hand outstretched to help him up. Harry looked up to see that amazing smile of Cedric, Harry went a light shade of pink before taking Cedric's hand and thanked him. "I think Harry is more than capable of getting up himself." George said irritated. Cedric frowned as Harry said," oh shut up George it's fine." As put two fingers up at George to which Fred burst out laughing and Cedric laugh his charming laugh. Harry went pink and his ears tingled as the hairs on the back of his head sat up. He thought this was really strange as usually he was really confident and had an aura that said 'could and would kick your ass if you got in his way' but for some reason he was getting all red because of this Hufflepuff lad he hardly knew. He shrugged it off. For the rest of the morning they made their two tents. Mr. Weasley insisted they do it the muggle way without magic and Amos agreed. It took them about two hours but they were completely satisfied with the result. Except Harry, all he could think was how on earth were they all gonna fit in those two small tents. Until Mr. Weasley casually opened the tent door and walked inside to which Harry could see a beautiful small area with several rooms. He gapped and whispered to himself, "I love magic.." Cedric saw Harry's joy in his eyes and smirked as he went a bit pink. However this time Charlie Weasley saw it and pointed it out to Bill. They both snickered and joked about Harry's little admirer. For the next half an hour or so Arthur sat Hermione and Harry on a close hill and made a running commentary of all the important people running by as they were mostly higher uppers in the ministry. The others joined them after a while to keep Harry and Hermione company. Don't get me wrong they loved the insider information so they could prepare and relax a bit but it was slowly getting tedious. However, Harry couldn't concentrate on the last bit of Mr. Weasley's briefing as Cedric had moved closer to Harry almost next to him. Harry pretended not to notice but his heart started pounding. After a while Cedric noticed a small leaf stuck to Harry's cheek. He leaned over and wiped it off his face. Harry turned around and said, "thanks I feel really clean now." He joked giving Cedric a grin. At this Cedric could feel his face burn, "what was happening?" He thought to himself. Quickly he lowered his face to hide his blushes. Harry saw this and his grin became even bigger. Slowly he put two fingers under Cedric's chin and lifted Cedric's head until they were staring straight into each other eyes. Cedric loved Harry's eyes they looked like the sea and emeralds, it reminded him of nature. Full of beauty but also ferocious. Harry looked at Cedric very pleased with himself seeing the tips of Cedric's ears go red and his pink cheeks becoming scarlet. "You're staring Diggory, like what you see?" Harry teased. Cedric was to speechless to reply all he could do was blush furiously. Harry liked making the Hufflepuff look like this. "Aww your blushing, am I making you all flustered?" He teased as Cedric's eyes widened. He quietly laughed as he dropped his hand away from Cedric's chin and turned around. The Hufflepuff took a deep exhale as I fidgeted away from Harry, calming himself down. He was so happy no one was paying attention. However, unfortunately for Cedric this wasn't entirely true as right behind him sat Bill and Charlie Weasley, their mouths gaping open. Before closing them to stop them from giggling. The day went on like normal. Until finally the time had come. They all made for the Quidditch stadium excited beyond belief. "We have the best seats in the house." Exclaimed Mr. Weasley ecstatically. "Why where are we sat?" Ron asked excitedly. "In the glass box WITH THE MINISTER OF MAGIC HIMSELF!" Shouted Mr. Weasley. "What!?" Percy cried with now a sudden more enthusiasm due to the fact he wanted to peruse a career working personally for the Minister. Which the twins mocked him for relentlessly. They match was against Scotland and Bulgaria. Everyone except Ron was supporting Ireland as Ron was completely obsessed with this player Viktor Krum. Which again the Twins mocked him relentlessly for (I'm starting to realise why they aren't popular in the household). Cornelius Fudge (Minister of Magic) along with other high ranking people in the Ministry greeted Harry and shook his hand. Some of them were disapproving of Harry's choice of dressing but never said it to his face. But Harry knew but he didn't really care as he liked they way he dressed and they could go fuck themselves he thought. As Harry sat down Cedric 'accidentally' nudged Ginny out the way to sit next to Harry after apologising to her. She scowled but then got over from the sheer anticipation of waiting for the match to start. Harry could feel himself tingle as he felt Cedric's gaze on him. But this was ruined as out of the corner of his eye he saw to blonde heads that were almost white. And sure enough as Harry feared it was Draco and his farther. Draco eyed Harry and pulled a malicious smile. He walked over to them and said, "hello Potter. Oh and if it isn't the mud blood and the blood traitors" Malfoy sneered. "SHOVE OFF DRACO!" Harry said as he gritted his teeth. " No I think I'll stick around a bit." Draco said evilly. At this Harry stood up to match Draco's hight. "Listen Draco I'm not gonna ask you again now sit down before I make you." Harry growled (which Cedric found very hot). Malfoy stepped close and bit his lip as he looked Harry up and down. Almost checking him out or something. This made Cedric uncontrollably angry. He stood up, "listen Malfoy either sit down away from us or I will personally throw you out this box." Cedric said deadly serious and in an almost scarily polite voice. Malfoy looked threatened and backed off with a sneer. Harry grinned at Cedric which made him realise what had just did. It really surprised Cedric as usually he was a calm chilled person. They both sat down, "blimey you two a pretty terrifying together." Ron remarked. Harry threw his scarf at Ron and said, "shut up Ron." As he smiled like an idiot.
