Wake up...I'm begging you | Cedric Diggory [OC]

It was now morning, and it is Cedric's last task. The sun shines through the window of Cedric's Room as she held him tightly as she could. She was scared...hoping that she won't lose him, because she has a feeling she will...

She hopes she won't lose him. Maybe she is just paranoid.

"Hope..." said Cedric, she looked up and saw his hazel eyes stare into her blue ones. She pushes his hair away form his face, and he smiled.

"I'm here." She whispered, before bringing him into a deep kiss, she hovers above him, kissing her hair falling on the side of her shoulder. Cedric smiles, his hand travel to her back, pushing her closer.

"I love you..." she whispered, when they parted.

"I love you too, my little badger."

Hope chuckled, and she placed her head on his shoulder as she holds him, like a pillow as Cedric intertwines her hand with his.

The last task was set in a maze, and Hope was scared. She and Cedric locked eyes and he smiled, Hope walked down the stairs and Cedric approached her. She placed a kiss on his lips and gave him her ring.

"Bring this back to me, will you?" she grinned, he nodded.

"I'll see you later." he said, he walked to his father and Hope walked back up to the stairs, and the champions started to walk inside, but before Cedric turned his back, he looked at Hope and placed the ring on his finger.

After what felt like years, Cedric and Harry appeared, Cedric laying on the floor. Hope thought it was because he was tired.

"YES! CEDRIC!" yelled Hope, happily. But her smile dropped instantly when she saw Amos Diggory running over to Cedric.

"That's my son! My boy!!" He weeps, "My boy!"

The music and laughs died down, and Hope felt like her soul has left her body. She gulped, and walked down the stairs, her friend trying to stop her. Her ears started to ring, as she hopes. Hopes, that he is just joking at that he will wake up.

Professor McGonagall stopped her from going further, and Hope looked up at her professor. She couldn't see him, only Amos crying.

"Professor—"

"Miss White, please don't come near. We will tell you—"

"No. I can't, I'm sorry but I have to. I need to see him, I need to—" she pushed past her professor and the sight before her made her want to scream loudly. Tears formed in her eyes, as she placed her hand over her mouth.

"NO!" yelled Hope, as runs to him, just in time as Amos walked away, crying on the shoulder of the minister. "NO! CEDRIC!"

She dropped next to him, holding his cold hand in hers. The hand that would always feel warm, the hand that Hope would hold to calm herself down when she his shaking, that hand that would hold hers during winter.

Her shaking hand cupped his cold face, as she stares into his lifeless eyes. Those eyes that can melt her, his hazel eyes that would usually shine bright with his bright smile. But now, it is dark, lifeless and cold. A sob escaped her lips, as she held his face. She buries her head on his neck as she cries, Professors trying to tear her from him.

"Cedric. Cedric. Cedric." She kept repeating. "Cedric, don't leave me now. Not now. My love, wake up. Wake up, wake up." She shook his body, but no avail.

"Cedric. WAKE UP!" She yelled, before she lets out a scream of anger and sadness. She sobbed louder, the Professors patting her back, as she cried. "Cedric. Wake up...I'm begging you, my love. Wake up, for me. Wake up for me. For me."

Her whole body shook as she cried, her lips trembling and her hands shaking as it holds his hand. She pushes his hair away from his face, and closed his eyes. Hope cried louder, finally standing up and walking away, with Professor Sprout's embrace, she was brought back into the castle. She walked inside the common room, stares following her.

Professor Sprout gave her a goblet of water. She stares into the fire, the bottom of her lips shaking as her friend tries to calm her down. She stood up, annoyed with everyone as she stomped up into her room, slamming the door behind her. She rests he back of her head on the door, and she fell on the floor, crying quietly, tears falling freely as she thought of his face, smiling happily at her. His eyes glowing with happiness as he holds her hand. His warm embrace, and his loving kisses.

She walked over to her bed, hugging her pillow as tightly as she can. For a second, when she closed her eyes, she saw him. But when she opened her eyes, she saw an empty bed space, as she bites her lip. And closed her eyes as tightly as she could, hoping her she would wake up from a nightmare and that she would see his loving face once again.

Please. One more miracle.

Please.
