Cedric

How should I ask her? I don't want to sound corny, but I really want to sound sincere, he kept asking himself how he could propose to Hermione, as he stood out in the balcony.

He was going with his father in England next month to assist him to the doctor's and that meant leaving Hermione for a while, the only problem was how long?

"still not sure how to propose huh?" Mr. Diggory asked entering the balcony with Cedric

"yeah…I'm pretty clueless how to start…I mean Hermione's no ordinary girl…she's really extraordinary…I just want it all to be…perfect…" he said as he looked up the sky

"well, let me tell you, it wasn't easy proposing to your mother as well, she was one extraordinary woman herself, I loved her so..." he said as he reminisced about her

Cedric stood there quiet, thinking how much it must have hurt his father, his mother was gone, the only person who completed him.

"son, all I can say is just be yourself, say how you truly feel, it's all just natural" he advised him

"I guess your right father…I will try being myself…"

Hermione

What could Cedric want that he had me meet him here? She asked herself as she waited for Cedric in the lake that was close to their school.

She focused her attention on the sunset, and felt the wind blow through her face and hair

"Mione…" someone said as he walked closer to her

"Cedric?"

"yes Mione, it's me…"

"what is it you have to tell that you had to make me wait here?" she asked him curiously

"I just wanted us to be alone, where no one could disturb us…I want to tell you something…" he said as he stood in front of her

"okay…what is it then?"

"I'm going with my father back to England next month...he needs to see a doctor…he's ill"

"so, what your trying to say is that your leaving me?" she asked as tears started filling her eyes as the wind blows, she could feel the coldness of the wind go in her body but not as cold as her heart was at the moment.

"no, I never said that, and I never will…"

"then what do you call this?" she asked placing her hands in the air

"a promise…"

"a promise?...oh Cedric!...what crap your saying right now…you know that?" she said annoyed

"no, it's not crap Mione!...here" he said as he placed a shell on the palm of her hand.

"what is this?..."

Than he took out his wand and transformed it into a ring.

It was transformed into a simple ring, it was simple but elegant at the same time, just like her.

He kneeled in front of her, not minding the mud, that would mess up his pants

"Mione…this is my promise…"

"I don't understand Cedric…"

"I promise…I will marry you when I get back…I love you…"

"what?! Are you crazy?!" she said with a jumpy and surprised look

"yes…I am! About you!"

"Cedric…"

"if I can't be with you forever…I don't know what I'd do…"

"Cedric…are you sure you want to marry someone so…plain and boring?" she said with a soft voice

"no!...of course not!..." he said finally standing up

"oh…" Hermione said thinking he meant he changed his mind about asking her to marry him

"because the person I'm asking right now is the most extrodinary and full of suprises.." he said bringing Hermione's face towards his, looking at her eyes

"well, Ms.Granger? will you marry me and be Mrs. Diggory?" he teased in a loud and deep voice

Hermione laughed before she could give an answer, "only if Mr. Diggory will have me…" than just like that Cedric placed the ring on her index finger laughing and carried her off her feet as they headed back.

5 years later

"come here Jeremy, come to Grandpa" Mr. Diggory said as he called his grandson

"coming Grandpa!" Jeremy yelled coming closer to his grandfather and sitting on his lap

He looked at Jeremy as if he were his own son few years before, blonde, golden hair and blue eyes just like his father and had the comp lection of his mother.

"Jeremy dear!, careful! You don't want Grandpa to fall again do you?" Hermione shouted from the kitchen

"no mommy, of course not!" he replied laughing

"Grandpa, tell me more about grandma!" he asked his grandpa

"well, your grandma was just like your mother, sweet caring and very beautiful…no one else could replace her…" Mr. Diggory explained to Jeremy.

He was about to continue when the door opened, "papa's home!" shouted Jeremy with joy as he ran to his father and jumped on his back

"Jeremy…please!...papa's going to fall if you don't let go…" Cedric said as he was about to fall off his feet

"Jeremy, get off your papa, he's still tired from work, you can play later, dinner's about to be served…please be a good boy and wash your hands…" Hermione pleaded waving a spatula in her hand

"okay mommy…" he said as he dashed to the bathroom

"careful Mione, you don't want to add stress to yourself…" Cedric said as he kissed her on her cheek

"yes I know…" he said as he headed towards the kitchen.

As Cedric headed to the living room to sit next to his father, "Cedric!" he said as he hugged him

"father, you feeling better?" he asked as he sat down

"yes, I am son…no need to worry…"

"I still can't believe I have everything I had always wanted after all these years of feeling empty and feeling that there's been something missing" he said as he reminisced through his childhood

"yes, I know what you mean, I can't either son, you have the woman that completes you, and you have a family that loves you…" he said finishing what he said

"well, yes but you forgot one more thing there father…" he said

"oh? And what is that?" he asked confused

"a loving and understanding father, who's been there for me all the way where I am now…" he said as he looked at him

Mr. Diggory looking at him the same way, tears started to fall down his eyes, "and I have the greatest son ever" he added

"I'm going to treat Fred the way you've always treated me...you can count on that, he continued to say as Hermione called from the kitchen "Cedric, Jeremy ,dad it's time to eat!"

"coming Mione" Cedric replied as he helped Mr. Diggory up and headed to the table as one big happy family.
