Cedric's dorm room was much lighter and warmer than she had ever known before. The sun melted into the room as the morning came, and Willow had the best sleep she'd had in weeks.

She glanced over to Cedric beside her with his arm wrapped lazily wrapped around her and his mouth wide open as it spilled out tiny snores. Looking more adorable than ever before.

On the other side of her, snoozing against the wooden floor, rested his orange hairball of a cat. Her name was Tilly and Cedric worshipped the ground she walked on.

His room was more available to look at than it was last night when Cedric begged her to stay, speaking of how he didn't want her to be alone. She agreed without much argument, wanting the same for herself.

The floors around her were clean and the surfaces were neat, except for the few cat toys that were scattered around the room.

The sleepover was shorter than their habits from her room in the Manor after Cedric introduced Tilly to her and they chatted as the orange cat sat in her lap, drifting into sleep almost instantly.

She felt safe in his presence and comfortable as if nothing would ever go wrong when he was around. Although she wished for more time to be together last night, she was grateful to be so rested.

The clock that hung up on one of the walls in the room made her nearly jump out of bed until she thought about how she didn't want to wake up, or Tilly for that matter.

Although she wished to remain in this position forever, thinking of how she could do this every night, she knew she had to go to class.

Cedric didn't have a class until later, and she'd be damned if she was the one to not let him sleep in.

As carefully as she could be, she attempted her best to sneak out of his grip and not step on little miss Tilly. Her attempt was successful for the most part as she gathered herself back into her class robes.

"Hm," A small voice muttered from the bed, moving gently as he adjusted himself to the previous spot she was in. Before she knew it, he was opening his eyes slowly to find her not there.

"Good morning." She whispered with a sweet smile, throwing her socks onto her feet. Cedric opened his mouth but was interrupted by Willow pointing at the still sleeping animal on the floor, holding a finger up to her mouth to shush him.

He leaned over the bed, as silent as he could, forming a giant smile on his face when his eyes saw the reasoning.

Willow could imagine what Cedric looked like when he first woke up but she would have never imagined him to look as gorgeous as he did now. His hair was in a million different directions and his cheeks were stained pink, she wasn't sure how she was going to leave.
