Ok. I'm real sorry this took so long to write. My sister came and visited, then I got a review from a few people (To lazy to check how many like, two) who reminded me Cedric wouldn't be able to get into the Common room because Hermione and him aren't in the same house. Well…At the beginning of the story I told you that I don't read the books just watch the movies (I really need to read the books I know) Well I'm not to sure what to do about it. A lot of stories I read have them in the common room, but I'll remember to avoid that…Either way that was what delayed the stories update. It was only in the second chapter anyway…well I shouldn't make you wait anymore! Onward with the story!
Disclaimer: If I owned Harry Potter why would I be sitting on my friends couch, squished between four other people writing on here while I listen to arguing about whose winning on Halo 3? If I owned it I wouldn't. But that's exactly what I'm doing now.
I rushed quickly to my next class. Harry was in there. While I let Ginny handle Ron in her next class I was going to handle Harry. I wasn't sure how we were going to get to Cedric. Maybe we could grab him in the halls…right before dinner. It was almost dinner time and I was glad I had finally gotten another class with Harry. The other two I had with both him and Ron I couldn't get to them. I couldn't yell at Ron and try to explain to Harry at the same time!
I quickly put my stuff down right next to Harry. He smiled at me.
"Hey Hermione haven't seen you yet today? You alright you look kind of keyed up over there." I took a deep breath.
"Harry there is something that I need to tell you. I didn't want to have to tell you so soon, I wanted to wait a while. But I kind of got into a situation so I have to tell you now." His eyebrows rose at all the information. I guess I was talking rather fast and that didn't help to much.
"Uh sure Hermione what's wrong?" I smiled at him. I thankful that I got to be the one to tell Harry. Ginny had not only to yell at Ron, but tell him what I was going to do. That would be ten times the challenge. Harry was an understanding friend. Surly he would be supportive right? As long as I was happy right? I could only hope. I had just opened my mouth to tell Harry when of course, who other than Draco Malfoy (Sp?) interrupted me.
"So, Granger. What this I hear about you going at it with a Hufflepuff? Because I sure can't wait to see him deny you at dinner. Like Diggory would waste his time with a pathetic mud blood like you." I could feel the urge to do as I had once before and punch him. How dare he! Cedric did not care if I was muggle born! I was Hermione Granger and he was Cedric Diggory. And we were both wizards at Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. There was nothing else that I nor him needed to be or do. It was simple. Then I heard Harry's voice bring me back down to Earth.
"Hermione? What's he talking about? You're not really going out with Cedric Diggory…are you?" He was looking strangely at me. Kind of…desperate.
"Yes Harry. That's what I was trying to tell you. Me and Cedric are going out. We were going to keep it a secret so that things like this-"I paused and motioned to the Slytherins (Sp?) who were now picking on someone else. "But I got so riled up by some girl this morning and somehow go swept into a dare to kiss him in front of everyone at dinner." Harry simply stared at me. "Harry? Could you say something please?" I was practically begging. Snape would be in here any moment now. I silently thanked Merlin that we were both early to class today. At least something went right today.
"Hermione?" I looked over at Harry, signaling for him to continue. "Are you sure he's not…you know…using you?" His voice changed to a whisper at the end of his sentence. I couldn't help but gasp.
"Harry I'm absolutely positive. Cedric would never do anything like that!" He nodded.
"I trust you and I believe you. Now come on Snape's here." We quickly turned our attention to getting our potions homework out.
Ok. Sorry to cut it a bit short. I did half of it at my friends (Like I said squished) and then transferred the file over to my computer at home. So wrote half at like one o'clock today and now its like ten forty. And mom says she can't sleep hearing the click of the keyboard. So…yeah. Hope you like it! R&R plz! I really love getting reviews!
