Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter... But if I did Cedric wouldn't die so therefore there would be no Edward Cullen :)

Chapter 1

Hermione sat in the library, her nose buried in her book, Percy Jackson and The Lightening Thief.

'Why couldn't I find a person as amazing as Percy she thought' Ever since the Triwizard tournament people thought Harry and the she had been dating, the thought!

"Mione... Will you help me with my potions homework... Snape and my mum will kill me if I fail the class..." A male voice pleaded behind her, Ronald Weasley...

"Maybe if you listened in class then you would be able to do it..." She said through clenched teeth 'I will never be like Annabeth and find Percy, I'm nothing special' She thought

"Hermione please I promise to listen in class"

"That's what you said last time!"she said exasperated.

"But... Harry had just come out of the maze and Cedric was like... Dead... How did you know that spell?"

"Fine, and I read about it, the spell I mean.." She said rolling her eyes.

After repeating the lesson to Ron, Hermione was free to read her book.

"Granger, you filthy mudblood!" Malfoy called, his 'followers' laughed, the Gryffindor ignored them like she always did.

"Mudblood, how did you get into Hogwarts, you're nothing, I can't believe you're still here. You think that your great just because you saved Cedric Diggory, does he even know who you are, why don't you go home, to your muggle parents, they're next on Voldemort's list." Hermione silently started to cry, the tear rolled down her cheek and fell onto the table, being followed by many more.

"Oi, Malfoy, why don't you go and study so that your insults might compare to Hermione." A strong voice said firmly, Hermione kept her head down.

"Everyone look who it is-"

"MALFOY! Go to Dumbledore and tell him what you have said to a witch that could kick your ass right now without a second thought. Tell him what you said about Lord Voldemort, that could get you in Azkaban for life!" The fifth year heard Malfoy scuttle away, but she couldn't stop crying, she hoped her saviour would leave, alas she heard their footsteps near.

"I'm sorry I haven't had a chance to talk to you yet, I'm Cedric Diggory, your Hermione Granger, the girl that saved me." Hermione's tears slowly started to stop and she looked up at the grey eyed Hufflepuff crouched next to her chair.

"Please, sit down Cedric." She whispered

"I'm sorry I haven't had time to talk to you, but you always runaway when I come over" Hermione shrugged, putting her book in her bag. Cedric continued,

"How can you take Malfoy saying those things to you, I mean, he called you a Mudblood, then said Voldemort would kill your parents, that's intense..."

"CEDRIC! There you are! Oh hi Hermione, Cedric hurry up! I have to show you the dress I would wear for our wedding." Said Lavender Brown, Cedric's new girlfriend, Cho and him broke up after the triwizard tournament.

"Bye Granger, hope I can talk to you later, coming Lavender!" He said before running after his girlfriend. CEDRIC DIGGORY KNOWS YOUR NAME HERMIONE, AND HE STOPPED MALFOY FROM THE BULLING! Hermione's conscience screamed at her. She grabbed her stuff and looked at the time. Shit! I have to go to Hogsmead with Harry! She fled down the stairs, rushing past Cedric and Lavender.

"Herm! I thought you had died, or you forgot!"

"Sorry Harry, I got held up, won't happen again"

"Don't worry! I could so use a Butterbeer!"

"So do I" The two friends trudged off into the fields, Hermione continued to think of Cedric.

"Harry..."

"Hermione..."

"Do you like Cedric Diggory?"

"The prefect?"

"Honestly Harry, you both nearly die together and you identify him as 'the prefect' and yeah we have no other Cedric Diggorys"

"Yeah, he's okay... Why?"

"I was just wondering."

"Hermione..."

"Harry..."

"How do I get a girl to like me?"

"Who is it Harry?"

"Cho Chang..."

"Flatter her Harry, just don't act like an idiot, hold a civilised conversation with her..."

"Thanks Herm."

The fourth years reached the Three Broomsticks and got their butterbeers. Drinking in the comfortable silence Hermione's mind wandered to Cedric and the way he spoke to Malfoy, with power, and confidence, something Hermione would never manage.

"LAVENDER, LEAVE ME ALONE! I NEVER WANT TO TALK TO YOU AGAIN!"
