Hufflepuff boy - Cedric Diggory x male oc x Viktor Krum

38

Cayden and Harry are sleeping in their respective beds, dreaming about the same thing at the same time.

They slowly move down a dark hallway. The hallway has many, bolted doors down its long sides.

Soon they are running. Then, suddenly, they are being pulled along, the doors rushing past faster and faster. They can see the end of the hallway, it is a blinding light, still only a speck.

It grows larger as they rocket towards it, then they fly right into it and the light explodes all around them, engulfing them.

Cayden and Harry wake up with a cry, sitting straight up in bed. They're covered in sweat, looking disturbed.

Cayden and Harry look at each other, the former dropping his body back onto the bed, sighing deeply.

≪ °❈° ≫

Ginny, Cayden, Ron, Hermione, Remus, Mr. Weasley, and Mrs. Weasley is standing in the hall, waiting, as Harry and Sirius descend the stairs.

Well, Cayden is leaning against the wall and checking his nails, trying to pass the time.

"Morning, dear! Did you have a good sleep?" Mrs. Weasley said, looking up at Harry.

"No, my scar kept hurting." Harry said, looking at Cayden who nodded at him in greeting.

Remus and Mr. Weasley exchange nervous glance. Not secretive at all.

"Probably just nerves..." Mr. Weasley said, ignoring Cayden snorts.

"Yeah... nerves..." Harry said, not believing that man at all.

"Good luck, Harry!" Mrs. Weasley said, bringing Harry into a hug.

After the hug, Harry stands back, but is suddenly hugged by both Cayden and Hermione.

"They'll have to let you off, Harry... You were defending yourself! I checked the laws." Hermione said, feeling Cayden's arms disappear around her and Harry.

"Thanks, Hermione." Harry said, sending Hermione a small smile for helping, and Cayden for the hug.

"What does he get a hug for?" Ron questioned, crossing his arms.

Hermione responded to him without hesitation. "When you have to go to a disciplinary hearing at the Ministry of Magic, I'll hug you too."

"Oh, sure, that's why." Ron said, huffing out a breath.

Hermione laughs. "Ronald Weasley, are you jealous?"

Ron glanced at the smirking Ginny and Mrs. Weasley, looking away. "Me? Jealous? Of course not, it just doesn't seem fair that you hug one friend more than the other, is all..."

"Would you like a hug?" Hermione asked, raising an eyebrow.

"No, I'd hate to force you..." Ron miffed.

Harry grins and shakes his head, sharing a smile with Cayden.

"Well, come on, Harry. Time to go." Mr. Weasley said.

"Bye." Harry said, waving to the others who return the gesture and leave with Mr. Weasley.

"Is there something I can help you with, Mrs. Weasley?" Cayden asked after the door was closed, looking at Mrs. Weasley.
