Pairing(s) Cedric/George (implied past) , Cedric/Harry (current)
Also a note for this fic; Dumbledore was late to the quidditch match and arrived just in time to see both Harry and Cedric fall the last few feet before he could cast the "Aresto Momentum".
A note: The beginning of this part starts just after Harry leaves the Three Broomsticks. Not too much dialogue this time I'm afraid.
*~*~*~*
Cedric watched Harry leave the pub reluctantly, wishing that Harry didn't have to sneak off like this. He'd wanted to spend a bit more time with him and out in the open, but he wasn't allowed to be in Hogsmeade at all and their options were limited to snogging under Harrys invisibility cloak in a dark booth in the corner. Cedric sat there for a few more minutes, remembering everything that just happened, before heading outside.
Cedric wandered around for a few minutes wondering where exactly Harry had gone but he knew that if he was still wearing his cloak, he'd never find him like this. Instead Cedric wandered around for a while, finally heading into the quidditch shop, straight across from where he and Harry ad run into each other earlier. The place was almost empty except for the shopkeeper and a couple of wandering Ravenclaws. He'd thought about his conversation with Harry about his broom. Cedric swore to himself, if he had as much money as Malfoy, Harry would be waking Christmas morning with the Firebolt on his bed. Cedric grinned at the thought as he wandered around to where the miniature models of broomsticks were kept...
A bit later after a visit to Honeydukes among a couple of other places, Cedric made his way back to the castle keeping a chocolate frog in his pocket to eat after he crossed the dementors. After he passed them by he decided to see if Harry was back yet, maybe they could head to dinner together in the Great Hall later. He was half-way up the stairs when he realized that he didn't know the password to Gryffindor tower so he turned around ready to walk away. But that was when he'd heard the most heartwrenching sound, someone was crying. He made his way up the stairs towards the sobbing, walking quietly and carefully as to not scare them.
What he saw, when he climbed another staircase all but broke his heart, it was Harry. Cedric took a long breath as he slowly approached him, Harry was sitting huddled in the floor, face buried in his arms. He made the final few steps towards Harry, kneeling down beside him. He noticed that Harry was oblivious to him, lost in his tears, Cedric thought, "What could have happened to him in such a short time to make him this upset?"
He couldn't take it anymore, to see Harry like this, and he wrapped his arms around him. Harry resisted at first until Cedric had asked him what happened. At that Harry clung to him, sobbing into his shoulder. After a few moment Harry told him everything, even as Cedric stroked the younger boys hair comfortingly, he wished he could have done more than just this, but it was the only thing he knew to do. A while later when Harry had calmed down, Cedric kissed his forehead protectively, as Harry talked about anything else other than what he'd heard in the pub. He'd told him about the trio's experience with Draco and his "friends" just outside of the Shrieking Shack.Cedric laughed lightly at this trying to picture it all in his minds eye, but all he could concentrate was getting Harry to smile again.
" I'm staying for the Holidays." Cedric grinned a little as he looked into Harry's brilliant green eyes. "Dad may have, er, gotten over his disappointment of me losing to you in quidditch, " he ruffled Harrys hair playfully, "but I don't care, I'm still upset about that Howler he sent me after I caught you and not the snitch. Which I'd still do all over again in a heartbeat if I had to, you know." Harry smiled a little turning slightly pink and the retorted playfully "You mean tried to catch me don't you" , it was his turn to tease the older boy, and Cedric turn to turn pink. "Hah, yeah well, thats what I meant, at least I gave you a softer landing though." Cedric grew a quiet before speaking again, "You know when I saw you falling I think my heart about stopped for a second. It was all I could do to get under you before...."
But then in the middle of his sentence he was interrupted by a pair of Gryffindors.
"Oi! You two stop acting all lovey-dovey and get out of the way, you're blocking the staircase." Cedric's heart caught into his throat, until he saw it was just Fred and George. "What are you two doing here anyway shouldn't two be in a dark corner somewhere snogging under Harry's invisibly cloak by now?" Fred teased them as he and George made kissy-faces at them.
But it was Cedric and Harry who had to last laugh, when they'd both recovered. Harry looked up at the twins with a grin on his face; "Been there, done that... at The Three Broomsticks." Harrys troubles concerning Sirius Black temporarily vanished for a while.
