After the events of the of the final task of Triwizard Tournament, Harry found a note had been skipped into his robes.
Disclaimer - I don't own Harry Potter or any of its stories or content.
This is a really short, purely film based little write-up that has nothing to do with shipping tastes or anything. It's simply because re-watching GoF I couldn't help but notice every time Cedric and Harry were on screen together it just kept coming across as Cedric having a bit of an eye for Harry.
Anyway wanted to write something,however short for this, not even sure I like it but oh well can always revisit.
...
Harry,
I've been beating myself up over this for a long time now and I hope you have it in you to hear me out and not judge me too harshly.
I've wanted to talk to you for so long but Its been so hard to get out of my own head. I've tried so many times this year to get it off my chest but every time I tried...you can be really cold you know! I've tried to approach you but you turn away or you look so angry at me.
Harry I know you like Cho, I'm not stupid and I'm sorry if it brought you down over Christmas. I get that that's one of the reasons you won't speak to me but I didn't do it though get one over on you.
This year's been so hard for me, becoming champion, only to have to share it with you. For a while I really hated you when I had thought you had put your name in the goblet. But then I saw how much grief everyone seemed to give you, how nearly all of the school turn on you and yet you managed to shrug it off and get through the first task.
Harry I couldn't have gotten through the first task without your help and I certainly couldn't have handled the negatively you got thrown at you.
After that I realised if a fourteen year old could do the things you did under the pressure you were under then I should stop hiding and continuing to think what if.So this is it, me to you. Finally confronting the monster under my bed and the truth I've done my best to ignore.
I like you...
I like you and it scares me to death.
I mean for a start it opens up some really unique avenues I never thought I was interested in. And then there's the fact that your only fourteen and I just turned seventeen. I have a girlfriend now and just to complicate matters I'm with someone who you probably wish was your girlfriend. Then there's the whole your the boy who lived thing and as if I haven't already mentioned, your a bloody boy!
I've tried to rationalize my way past this but it's been bloody hopeless. You always seem to be there every which way I turn in this damn castle. You always manage to one up yourself with sheer brilliance whether it's Quidditch or battling a dragon, being unnecessarily kind. It just all goes towards making you so hard to ignore.
If it makes it any better my Christmas was awful, You were upset you weren't dancing with Cho, I was upset I wasn't dancing with you.
Basically your an oddity Harry and I'm falling for you...
So that's it's...I'm at your mercy really. Bit of a big deal this mate. I hope that whatever happens we can be friends but if it's the only chance I get to tell you how I feel then, now you know.
I hope you do well in the maze tonight,
Stay safe and may the best man win,
Cedric
The parchment which the letter was wrote on was crumpled. It had blotch marks all throughout where shattered tears had streaked down it. Clutched so tightly to a shaking boy's chest as he lay doubled over on his side under a thick blanket on a four poster bed.
Silently Ron leaned over from where he lay scanning the room in the dark. He pointed his wand at Harry's bed and cast a silencing charm over it, the sound of sobbing that had begun to fill the dormetory died away as he left his best friend to grieve in peace.
