How am I going to stop him from entering. He's so stubborn. I just don't want him to get hurt. But I don't want him thinking I don't trust him. Am I a terrible friend? I fainted when he asked how I would feel if he entered. Ugh I'm a bad friend. Maybe if u just told him that I'm not comfortable with him entering he wouldn't enter. But I want to be supportive. He always supportive of me. If anything happens to him I won't ever forgive myself. EVER. I love him to much. But then again what are the odds he even gets chosen. Screw it. I'll support him. Not like he would even listen to me if I told him not to.

I put my quill and parchment away. Madame promfrey did a quick check up and told me I'm free to go whenever I'm ready. I just had to wake up the sleeping Cedric next to me. He looks so peaceful. I gently played with his hair. Whispering in his ear.

"Cedric, ced..it's time to wake up"
I ran my fingers through his hair and gently rubbed his back.
"You're very cute you know that ced?" I smiled at him continuing to rub his back. I waited a couple minutes admiring his peaceful state. Before I looked at the time. 20 minutes until breakfast is over.

"Cedric, we have to go"
His eyes slowly started to open. I was still running my fingers through his hair.

He rubbed his eyes and smiled at me. I gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"Madame promfrey said we can leave whenever we are ready, and I wasn't going to wake you up but breakfast ends in 20 minutes and you have the quidditch tryouts in 40 minutes

"Oh okay" he stated.
He sat up and gave me a hug. We stayed like that for a solid 5 minutes.
"Y/n.." he said muffled since he was still hugging me.
"Yes ced"
He looked like he was about to say something. But quickly shut it down.
"Nothing never mind"
"Oh okay" I said a little but disappointed.
"Are you ready" I said
"Yeah"
He stood up and reached his hand out for me to grab. We walked to the great hall hand in hand. I blushed the whole way over. To me it meant something, the thought of maybe him liking me the same way I liked him filled me with a warm feeling. But the feeling stopped when I remembered he will never like me like that. To him I just his best friend. I'm okay with that I'd rather have him as a friend than not have him at all.

We scarfed down our cereal just in time. Then ran to the common room. I tapped the barrel in the rhythm of helga hufflepuff. Cedric ran up stairs and got changed into his quidditch uniform. I ran to my dorm as well.
Since it was a Saturday I just got changed in a crop top with a knitted cardigan over it and some jeans.

I brushed my hair and teeth, and put on some mascara, blush and highlighter.
I grabbed my Herbology and potions textbook and my homework. Put on my shoes and headed out my dorm. Cedric was just heading out his dorm as well.
We ran to the quidditch stadium. Where I waved him a goodbye and sat on the bleachers.
He was the quidditch captain so he didnt have to tryout again. But everyone else on the team did.
I always watch him at his quidditch games, practices, and tryouts. I watch him and I do my homework. I didn't mind it. The only thing that annoyed me was his group of fan girls. He didn't pay attention to them thankfully. I tried not to pay attention but they usually stared at me. Giving me evil snooty looks. I just looked away. Cedric always gives me a 'do you want me to tell them to stfu' sort of look but I just shake my head and smile.
"Hey y/n"
It was Hermione and Ron coming to support Harry.
"Hey guys" I made room for them to sit next to me.
"So how are you feeling"
I didn't know what they were talking about until I remembered last night.
" I'm good, Cedric asked me how I would feel if he entered the triwizard tournament"

Hermione looked at me in shock.
"You told him no right"

"Not exactly...the room got dizzy and I felt hot and well fainted, so I never got to tell him how I felt about it. But judging by how I fainted I think he knows.."

"Oh yeah right"
I explained to her and Ron that I want to support him but I don't want him getting injured or worse killed.

"Well I believe Monday Dumbledore is bringing out the goblet of fire.."

"Really?!"
I said in shock.

"Yeah and the other schools are coming Monday as well"

I didn't know what to think about this.
Hermione and I stopped talking much after that. My mind was somewhere else. I packed up my belongings and headed over to Cedric. Who was crowed in a mob of fan girls. I rolled my eyes and pushed them aside. To find a actually kinda scared Cedric.
"One of those girls asked me if I could cut my hair and give it to her"
He said as we made our way back into the common room.
I began to laugh
"Ah the life of golden boy Cedric diggory"
He didn't like it when I called him that. But he just smiles and brushes it off.

"So..since that's all over, are up to go to hogsmede" I said.

"Yes I'm down just let me take a shower and change"

I sat in the common reading waiting for Cedric.
I then felt a pair of arms wrapped around me from behind , I knew it was Cedric because of the honey scented shampoo. I hugged him back.
"Are you ready?" I asked
"Yep"
I grabbed his hand as we walked to the train

1038 words is a lot.The next chapter will be in hogsmede so it might be shorter..but deal with it. Love ya <3
